Please Spare My Life, Disciple of the Demon Lord

Zhao Liyang looked at Mu Yunzhong below, word by word.

"First question, did you already know that the Dustless Pearl was in your body?"

"Second question." Zhao Liyang did not wait for his reply, but asked the next question on his own, "Have you ever used other people's golden elixir to practice the Dustless Pearl?"

"Third question, has the Dustless Pearl merged with you now?"

Once these three questions were asked, there was no need for Mu Yunzhong to answer them. There was no other explanation for why he could have such strength at such a young age except the Wuchen Pearl.

The most important and crucial third question is that the Dustless Pearl has become a living thing, which means he is destined to become the next Nangong Xiu. How can a demonic thing have a heart of Tao? A cultivator who practices with the Dustless Pearl will inevitably become a demon.

Therefore, even Wei Tianqing, who had always been a smooth talker, said seriously: "Master Cang, this matter is no longer your sect's business. You, Sanyuan Sect, cannot protect Mu Yunzhong."

At that moment, the number above Mu Yunzhong's head began to drop rapidly.

271

"This matter was caused by me, and I, Mu Yun, am willing to take full responsibility."

His voice echoed in the crowd, and those standing in front of him seemed to have noticed something and turned around.

Jiang Tingwan grabbed his hand and said, "Why don't you listen? Why don't you run? Don't tell me that your choice is to pay with your life. If you wanted to die, I could have killed you earlier, but from the beginning to the end, what I wanted was for you and me to live."

At that moment, she seemed to see his choice, and the tears welling up in her eyes were bitter and strong.

He looked at her calmly, "I don't want to die. I just realized now that I can't keep you, and I can't keep you. Just like I can't leave them here. If my choice can let you return to the place you want to go back to, and can also preserve Sanyuan Sect, is this the best of both worlds?"

He looked into Jiang Tingwan's eyes and smiled gently.

Jiang Tingwan was stunned. He had taught him to be attached to this world and to accept his own departure, but he had not taught him that it was okay for him to be a little selfish.

At this moment, her heart was like a mess, and her swollen throat almost suffocated her. She always said that she believed Mu Yunzhong would make the right choice in the end, but Mu Yunzhong was not the only one who had to make the choice.

Mu Yun finally turned around and faced everyone, saying loudly: "What you are worried about is only the troubles of the Dustless Pearl. If I can make this thing just a dead object, I wonder if you can rest assured?"

"If you die, we will be at peace."

Someone in the crowd said something, but no one dared to stand up and be the first person to force someone to die. From their perspective, these words should have been said by Sanzong.

Wei Tianqing, who was sitting on the seat, also took this into consideration and stepped back, saying, "If you are willing to sever your meridians and never practice cultivation again, the Dustless Pearl can be just a dead object..."

For a cultivator to cut off his meridians is tantamount to suicide. Not only does it cut off the path to immortality, but it also prevents him from truly dying of old age.

Jiang Tingwan tightly grasped Mu Yunzhong's hand. This was not the ending she wanted. She wanted to stop him, but the voice in her heart reminded her, "Jiang Tingwan, you did it. As long as Mu Yunzhong gets through this last hurdle, nothing will be able to affect him anymore. You will be home soon. 27, 26, 25..."

Suijiu excitedly counted down the decreasing number, this number was the only thing she saw in her eyes.

Wei Tianqing proposed this method as a way of dealing with the problem, but he did not expect that Mu Yunzhong would immediately take over his words and said decisively:

"I am willing to abandon my cultivation, sever my meridians, and imprison myself in Luoyang Mountain from now on. I will never practice cultivation again and become an ordinary person."

“I only hope that the Immortal Alliance can pin this crime on me, Mu Yunzhong, and not involve anyone from the Sanyuan Sect.”

"Are you really willing to give up your cultivation?" Wei Tianqing looked at him in disbelief.

Since ancient times when mortals have been cultivating immortals, it is extremely rare to find someone who can reach the middle heaven level at the age of twenty. Although this is due to the Wuchen Pearl, Wei Tianqing himself is not a person who values ​​treasures too much.

He believed that the biggest reason why Mu Yun could finally have the good fortune he had today was that he himself was an extremely talented person. Even without the existence of the Wuchen Pearl, it would probably take him only a hundred years to transcend the tribulation and ascend to heaven. Severing his own meridians was tantamount to voluntarily giving up a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

After hearing him say this, the original fear turned into a different view of him.

Someone asked back, which meant that Mu Yunzhong's solution was acceptable, so he immediately said: "As long as I can get a promise from the three sects, I, Mu Yunzhong, will never break my promise."

"This sect will give you this promise." Wei Tianqing was still hesitating, and Zhao Liyang spoke first, "As long as you sever your meridians and never leave Luoyang Mountain, so that the Wuchen Pearl is just a useless pearl, this sect can promise to spare your life."

He didn't believe that a bead could bring back a person who had been dead for a thousand years. This Wuchen Bead was a demon, but it wasn't that evil. As long as Mu Yun couldn't use it to practice, it wouldn't be a big deal. He always admired courageous people. If Mu Yun could take the initiative to solve this problem, he wouldn't have to sit here and deal with these people.

With Zhao Liyang's promise, Mu Yun finally smiled and said, "Then I will believe what Sect Master Zhao said."

After saying this, Mu Yunzhong immediately tried to break free from Jiang Tingwan's hand, but she held it tighter. He looked at her in surprise. She just lowered her head, clenched her teeth tightly, and finally looked at him after spitting out two words.

"Not really." Not the best of both worlds, he understood these two words.

"Severing your own meridians is tantamount to letting me watch you die. This is not the ending I want. I won't allow you to make this choice."

Hearing her words, Mu Yun looked at her blankly for a long time, then lowered his head and smiled, "But I have to choose this way."

As soon as he finished speaking, before everyone could react, a burst of true energy suddenly burst out, shocking Jiang Tingwan and others around him away for a distance, and also made everyone in the audience subconsciously close their eyes.

After hearing a few loud bangs, Mu Yun's meridians were completely severed in everyone's sight. He spat out a mouthful of blood, and his blue and white clothes were instantly stained with blood.

By the time Jiang Tingwan stood still and looked towards the stage, he could no longer control his tears. At that moment, the number above his head rapidly dropped to the final countdown.

3...

"Muyunzhong!"

Her tears blurred her vision. It didn't matter to her whether the number continued to drop or not. She shouted his name loudly and rushed over immediately, as if everything around them didn't exist and there were only the two of them left in the world.

Mu Yun's profound meridians were broken, his true Qi leaked out, his spiritual power dissipated, his whole body went limp, and he knelt in her arms.

Jiang Tingwan held his face in her hands, unable to control her tears. All the blood from Mu Yun's life seemed to seep into her eyes, stinging them painfully.

"Silly boy, how can I bear to leave?" She said this while crying, but Mu Yunzhong's consciousness had already become blurred.

"Mu Yunzhong...Mu Yunzhong..." She shouted his name loudly, and Lin Shuyu, Mu Qingge and others also rushed over.

Everyone said almost nothing, and at the same time poured spiritual power into Mu Yunzhong's body to stabilize his heart meridians. As long as his heart meridians were continuous, his life could be saved.

At the same time, Wei Tianqing and Zhao Liyang looked at each other. Mu Yunzhong, whose meridians were broken, was indeed no longer a threat. With Zhao Liyang's assurance just now, the people in the field were shocked and almost accepted this result.

Cang Shuzi looked at the younger generations who were trying their best to rescue the people below the stage, and he also stood up as the leader of a sect, "So, are you satisfied?"

Everyone looked at each other, and no one had any reason to stop them.

But just when Cang Shuzi was about to step down and take his people away, the voice that had been silent for a while came.

"Wait a minute!"
