Traveling through time as a goblin, just wanting to live a leisurely life

"Master, when a person is about to be devoured by his inner demons, can others tell?"

Before starting work, Mo Ling asked Master Zhengguang.

"Amitabha, in most cases it can be seen, but everyone has different desires and different inner demons. It is possible to encounter inner demons that are completely invisible."

Master Zhengguang replied.

"So how can we tell?"

Mo Ling asked again.

"In this case, it is usually not easy to distinguish. But the inner demon is formed by some obsession or shadow of the host. If the host suddenly becomes particularly obsessed with something, it is very likely that he has been seriously affected by the inner demon and is about to be devoured."

Master Zhengguang's words made Mo Ling's heart sink and he sighed.

In fact, he had suspected before whether Shi Ning was too deeply influenced by his inner demons and could no longer extricate himself.

Shi Ning always thought that she was just raising her inner demon as a child, adapting and practicing in advance for life after having a child, but in Mo Ling's opinion, this was not the case.

This inner demon child has existed for a year, but Shi Ning has not completed the training and has no intention of eliminating the inner demon. Instead, he increasingly regards the inner demon as his own child, and is trapped in it, unable to extricate himself.

Therefore, he rejects the inner demons.

Watching Shi Ning sinking deeper and deeper into the demon's trap, it was as if a pair of shadowy fangs opened their bloody mouths and got closer and closer to Shi Ning's neck.

How could Mo Ling treat a demon who was always thinking of devouring his lover as his daughter?

However, Shi Ning didn't think so.

She thought that Mo Ling had lost his patience. If he didn't even have the patience to deal with his inner demons, how could he be sure that Mo Ling would be patient with his own child for ten or twenty years and raise him up?

As long as Mo Ling has not completed Shi Ning's assessment, she will not eliminate her inner demon.

Mo Ling had something to say about this, and he had tried to talk to Shi Ning many times.

But Shi Ning often ignores this point and keeps nagging Mo Ling about his lack of patience, asking him to deal with his inner demons properly. Recently, he has even gone further and is beginning to lose his mind.

The divorce that was accidentally mentioned yesterday was a wake-up call for Mo Ling.

Although Mo Ling had been pursuing Shi Ning as a licker when they were still in the mortal world, and Shi Ning never agreed, it was not that Shi Ning was not moved by Mo Ling, but because he had a blood feud with his relatives and did not want to involve other people in this dispute, so he never responded to Mo Ling's feelings.

Later, Shi Ning was seriously injured in revenge and there was no medicine in the world to cure him. Mo Ling spent 10 years researching and refining the Wanxiang Pill, and successfully cured Shi Ning. However, he himself successfully broke through the star realm and ascended to the fairyland because of this pill whose technology far exceeded the mortal level.

After Shi Ning woke up, he learned that Mo Ling had ascended to the immortal world, so he began to practice hard. After several decades, he successfully ascended to the immortal world, met Mo Ling and married him.

Therefore, their relationship not only witnessed all kinds of hardships, but also was a two-way journey. From the time they got married to now, Mo Ling had never thought that Shi Ning would actually say the word "divorce".

He was really afraid that his lover would be devoured by his inner demons.

Therefore, Mo Ling became Master Zhengguang's first guest today. He told Master Zhengguang all about Shi Ning's situation and his own concerns, and then asked:

"Master, what should I do to wake up Shi Ning?"

"Amitabha, if she could really be awakened by just one sentence from you, she would have woken up long ago."

Master Zhengguang said.

"As the saying goes, appearance is determined by the heart, and the inner demons are also born from the heart and extinguished by the heart. Maybe a word, an event, or a moment will wake her up from the inner demons, or it is very likely that she will sink from then on and never come back. No matter which situation occurs, everything depends on her."

Master Zhengguang was also powerless.

Mo Ling sighed, his brows full of worry.

That day, Mo Ling returned to Xinhai Villa on time for dinner.

Shi Ning had already prepared dinner, and with Xiao Chanchan, it seemed like a family of three sat down to eat.

Then Mo Ling washed the dishes and helped with some housework, while Shi Ning played with Xiao Chanchan. At eight o'clock in the evening, Mo Ling took over to accompany Xiao Chanchan, while Shi Ning sat aside to rest until 10 o'clock to coax Xiao Chanchan to sleep.

On this day, Mo Ling performed perfectly.

But Shi Ning coaxed Xiao Chanchan, and when he came out of the room, his brows were still frowned.

"what happened?"

Mo Ling took the initiative to show concern.

"Your performance today makes me feel uneasy."

Shi Ning said.

“Did I behave badly today?”

Mo Ling was surprised.

"No, you behaved very well today. It's just that I can't accept it."

Schnington paused and continued:

"I said something hurtful to you yesterday, and I saw your tears last night, but today you did all the tasks I asked you to do, like a child who had done something wrong and was trying to show off. This makes me feel very guilty."

Shi Ning said.

"Do you want me to lose my temper, have a big fight with you, or even run away from home, so that I can feel at ease?"

Mo Ling said with a smile.

"It might be better than what it is now."

Shi Ning thought about it and said.

Mo Ling was silent.

"Alas, what do we need to worry about? We have been together for such a long time, who of us can really abandon each other?"

In the end, it was Mo Ling who spoke first, and at the same time he hugged Shi Ning's arms tightly.

"But I know you're hurt... I'm sorry."

Shi Ning apologized again.

"It doesn't matter. Just remember that no matter what happens, I will definitely rescue you. That's all."

Mo Ling said.

"Hmph! Stop being so conceited. I'm a swordsman and you're just an alchemist. If something goes wrong, it's not certain who will protect whom!"

Shi Ning said with his nose raised.

"That would be great. No matter what problems you encounter, remember that I'm still here. Just hold on and I'll find a way to save you. That's all."

Mo Ling said again, Shi Ning finally noticed something was wrong.

"You're worried that I'll really run into problems. Are you worried about my inner demons?"

Shi Ning quickly figured out the problem.

Mo Ling nodded and recounted his conversation with Master Zhengguang.

Shi Ning is a sword cultivator, and his personality is as straightforward as a sword. If he tells her his concerns directly, perhaps she will be more willing to listen.

This is how Mo Ling thought of it.

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing and I know the limits. Don't worry, I'll be fine."

Shi Ning assured.
