Both worlds are like dreams

"It really is your body!" Xue Huang couldn't help but reach out and touch it. This was even more incredible. "It's hot? You're still alive?"

"Don't touch me!" Mu Guang looked at Xue Huang's hands pinching his face wantonly and twitched his lips. "Men and women should not touch each other."

Xue Huang smiled and said, "I want to confirm that you really exist. But what's going on? Why is your body hot?"

"My consciousness has been detached and is now living inside the gemstone. My body is still alive. This stone is a meteorite from outer space. It contains a mysterious power that can keep my body from decaying."

Xue Huang looked at the gem in her palm and found that the material of the stone seemed to be the same as the gem, and there was a fracture on it. "Did you pick this off from the stone?"

"Yes. What I taught back then was against the laws of this world's development. I was afraid I would be hunted down, so I decided to leave. Later, I discovered this cave, so I hid the meteorite here, and then took three stones to carve into a token and passed it on to your ancestor. Later, I stripped off my consciousness and parasitized on one of the stones. However, something unexpected happened when I stripped off my consciousness. I lost all my memories and slept in the stone for who knows how many years. I couldn't leave, and I couldn't communicate with anyone."

Xue Huang sighed as she heard this, "It's unbelievable that there are such bizarre things in the world."

"Yes, I shouldn't have appeared in this world. But existence is reasonable, and there are always some strange things in this world."

"So what now?" Xue Huang asked. "You have found your body and recovered your memory. What are your plans next?"

"The power of this meteorite is already very weak. Once the energy is gone, my body will decay. I need to return to it before my body decays, but my current power is too weak to leave the gem."

"How can I help you?"

Mu Guang was silent for a moment, "Take my body out. Let's go to Shuanglin City together."

"Then how do I explain your identity? How do I explain that you have lived in this dark place for so many years?"

"Well... I'll teach you a way, but you must stay calm."

"what?"

"Just put my body into the gem."

"Are you kidding? This rock is only the size of a palm. How can I fit you in it?"

"The world is so big that there are all kinds of wonders. You have to believe in miracles!" Mu Guang said with a smile.

Xue Huang still couldn't accept it, but she didn't say anything else. She just said, "Then tell me, what should we do?"

"Let me borrow your body for a moment."

After Mu Guang finished speaking, he temporarily separated his consciousness and attached it to Xue Huang's body.

Xue Huang felt dazed for a moment, and was surprised to find that her body was out of control. "Am I dead?"

"Calm down, calm down." Mu Guang moved his arms and legs and spoke in the voice of Snow Phoenix. "I haven't moved for too long. It feels better to be alive. I haven't even breathed in air for a long time."

"Why didn't you come out before?"

“I couldn’t do this before.” Mu Guang placed his hand on the gem, and it emitted a magical blue light. The next moment, Mu Guang’s body turned into a ray of light and floated into Xue Huang’s necklace.

Xue Huang was completely shocked, "How... did you do that?"

"Maybe one day you'll be able to do it, too." Mu Guang picked up the stone. "I've transferred the energy inside it. Now it's just an ordinary stone. I'll keep it for you to make jewelry."

"Let's talk about it later. Let's get out of here first. They will be worried up there."

"Okay." Mu Guang stretched out his hand and pinched his face, "It feels good."

"Don't pinch it!" Xue Huang said.

"I am using your hands to pinch yourself, it's not taking advantage." Mu Guang walked up, "Lend it to me for a while, I want to feel the sunshine."

"Okay." Xue Huang said. "But when we go out later, how are we going to explain it to them?"

"Just leave it to me."

After returning to the stone chamber on the previous level, Mu Guang turned off the mechanism and the murals gradually closed.

"Won't it collapse with such a loud vibration?" Xue Huang asked.

“The things here are of no value anymore.”

"That's right. After all, you are the treasure."

"Don't you hate me?" Mu Guang suddenly asked.

"Why do I hate you?"

"If I hadn't appeared, many things wouldn't have happened later."

"But if it weren't for you, there wouldn't be Beiyuan later. You saved many lives at that time. Can you say that you did something wrong?"

"A blessing in disguise is a blessing in disguise."

"What do you mean?"

"It means that fortune and misfortune go hand in hand."

"You have always been very clear-headed and always able to look at things from a higher level, rational and without personal emotions. How come you suddenly became emotional?"

Mu Guang was silent. He always looked at things from the perspective of an outsider and history. This was what he taught Xue Huang since she was a child, so that she could live with an open mind.

But humans are not plants or trees, so who can be heartless?

He is not a saint, and neither is Xue Huang. They may be able to be open-minded when looking at other people's problems, but how many people in this world can do that when facing their loved ones?

He and Xue Huang have known each other for too long. They have lived and died together in this life. They are like family to her. He has witnessed her joys and sorrows in two lives and it is impossible for him to just stand by and watch rationally.

Between them, it was not just him accompanying her for nineteen years, but each other's companionship, which brought light to his lonely world.

"After all, I am just a mortal, not the god you are talking about."

"But in the eyes of my ancestors, you are the god who saved them from danger."

"Okay, stop flattering me and get ready to leave."

Mu Guang came to the stone gate, fumbled around on the bronze lamp holder next to it, and quickly opened the mechanism.

When the stone door opened, I saw the worried faces of several people outside.

"Xue Huang," Gu Qinglan stepped forward and was about to extend his hand, but then realized that it was inappropriate and took it back, "Are you okay?"

Several people looked at her, but found that her expression was wrong, as if she had the face of someone else.

Her eyes were cold and stern, indifferent and distant, and extremely strange.

"Xue Huang?" Mo Ruilin asked tentatively. "What were you doing just now?"

At this time, the person in Xue Huang's body was still Mu Guang. He did not answer, but sealed the stone door again and walked up the stairs.

Mo Yunchen frowned slightly and grabbed her wrist. She looked at him indifferently, as if she was looking at a stranger.

He unconsciously let go and saw her moving upwards.

They looked at each other and slowly followed.

It was already dawn, and the morning sun was shining on the ground, extremely warm and bright.

Mu Guang closed his eyes and fully felt the warmth, sunshine, air, breeze, and fragrance of flowers, which he had not felt for a long time.

Several people watching her actions found her actions extremely strange and weird, because Xue Huang seemed like a different person.

After a long while, she spoke calmly, "It is the way of heaven that if you gain something, you lose something. The things you took away should not see the light of day again at this time. However, since someone has paid the price for you, use it to benefit the people."

"Who are you?" Wei Yunzhou asked directly.

Mu Guang turned his head and looked at him without saying anything, but his eyes were indifferent and detached from the world, and it was obvious that he was not in the same dimension as them.

They were certain that the person in front of them was definitely not Xue Huang, but how could there be someone else underneath?

If she is not the Snow Phoenix, then where is the real Snow Phoenix?

Gu Qinglan asked, "What does the word price mean?"

"This little girl has paid the price for you. Don't let her down."

Xue Huang: "Don't fool them. What if you scare them?"

Unfortunately, no one except Mu Guang could hear what she said.

After Mu Guang finished speaking, he separated his consciousness and returned the body to Xue Huang.

Xue Huang was in a trance again, and fell down staggeringly.

Mo Yunchen hugged her in time and stretched out his hand to check her pulse.

The scene just now looked weird, as if she was possessed by something, but her pulse was normal.

After a while, Xue Huang reacted. She rubbed her temples, still a little uncomfortable.

"Where do you feel uncomfortable?" Mo Yunchen asked.

Xue Huang shook her head and stood up straight.

"What did you do down there?" Wei Yunzhou asked. "What happened?"

"Do you remember what happened just now?" Gu Qinglan looked at her anxiously, "Taking those books away will cost you a price, but is that true? If that's the case, I'd rather not have it."
