Mu Xue and Mu Xue

Lin Mo just felt like a cannonball shot out with great force, flying very far in the void.

Everything around him was like a blur of light and shadow, passing by him quickly.

After an unknown amount of time, he suddenly crashed into something that looked like a thin film. At that moment, he felt as if he had passed through an elastic barrier, and his body shook slightly.

When he opened his eyes again with difficulty, he found himself back in the familiar yet somewhat strange real world.

"Brother! You're amazing, aren't you? You're like a completely different person. How did you do it? And how did you discover the secret of the wheel? You're truly amazing!"

As soon as he opened his eyes, he heard Mu Xue's clear and surprised voice.

Mu Xue's eyes were sparkling like two twinkling stars, full of admiration and curiosity towards Lin Mo.

Her little face flushed slightly with excitement, and she kept shaking Lin Mo's arm, like a child who had discovered a new treasure.

Lin Mo opened his mouth and wanted to answer Mu Xue's question, but he suddenly felt a deep sense of powerlessness in his body, as if an invisible mountain was pressing down on him.

His eyelids became extremely heavy, as if a thousand-pound lead block was hanging on them, and every time he tried to open them, it became extremely difficult.

He tried to raise his hand to touch his eyes to figure out what was going on, but he found that his hands and feet seemed to be filled with molten lead and he could not move at all.

Immediately afterwards, his consciousness began to become blurred, and the voice of Mu Xue around him seemed to become distant and ethereal.

"Brother! Brother! What's wrong with you? What's wrong with you?"

At the moment when Lin Mo's consciousness finally disappeared, he vaguely heard Mu Xue's anxious and tearful cry. The voice was like a candle in the wind, swaying in his consciousness which was gradually sinking into darkness.

When he opened his eyes again with difficulty, Lin Mo found himself lying on the somewhat simple yet extremely familiar bed in the hotel.

His head felt dizzy, as if shrouded in fog.

He tried hard to sit up, and it took a lot of effort for him to barely support his body.

He looked around in a daze and found Yan Liyu sitting on a chair not far away, reading a book quietly.

The sunlight shone through the window onto him, outlining his silhouette. He looked so focused, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him.

"Huh? You're awake? You have no idea how worried your sister is about you. She thought you borrowed power from some god by using his lifespan in order to win. She was crying so hard! If you really had that kind of power, why didn't you use it earlier? Why make us go through so much trouble to fight them?"

Yan Liyu raised his head and looked at Lin Mo, with a hint of ridicule in his eyes, but more of it was helplessness towards Mu Xue's worry.

He closed the book, leaned back in his chair, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and spoke with a hint of joking.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense. I'm starving. Hurry up and give me something to eat, or I'm really going to die!!"

Lin Mo said weakly, he felt like there was a hand stirring in his stomach, and the feeling of hunger surged like a tide.

"Brother! You're awake! You're finally awake!"

Mu Xue's voice full of surprise came from somewhere. The voice seemed a little soft, probably because of the distance, but Lin Mo still heard it clearly.

The voice was like a ray of warm sunshine, instantly dispelling some of the discomfort in his body.

"Your sister is out buying something for you, just wait."

Yan Liyu said nonchalantly, and lay back in his chair, continuing to read his book. His leisurely look seemed as if he was deliberately taking revenge on Lin Mo for throwing the formation at him before, which made Lin Mo both angry and amused.

Lin Mo wanted to get up and greet Mu Xue. He tried hard to move his body, but he found that his body was completely out of control and he still had no strength at all.

Even if he moved slightly, his whole body would feel as if it was being pricked by countless needles and it was so painful that he didn't even know how he sat up when he just woke up.

Helplessly, he had to lie on the bed obediently and wait for Muxue to arrive.

"I'll let you throw a magic circle at me! I'll let you throw a magic circle at me! I'll starve you to death! I'll starve you to death! Hahahaha!"

Yan Liyu kept thinking in his heart, and the thought was like a happy deer jumping in his mind.

The smile on his lips continued to spread, almost reaching his ears, but he still tried hard to remain calm, not wanting Lin Mo to see the little bit of revenge in his heart.

He lowered his head slightly, pretending to concentrate on the book in his hands, but his slightly trembling shoulders betrayed him, showing that he was trying hard to suppress the smile that was about to burst out.

However, what he didn't know was that Lin Mo didn't have the energy to carefully observe his expression at this moment.

Lin Mo felt as if all the strength in his body had been drained away, and every inch of his muscles was extremely sore.

He could only lean against the wall weakly, slowly closing his eyes, trying to relieve the discomfort in his body in this moment of tranquility. Unconsciously, he fell into a state of half-sleep and half-wakefulness, as if everything around him was gradually moving away from him.

After an unknown amount of time, Lin Mo fell asleep again. This time his sleep was like a deep dark night, without any disturbance from dreams.

When he woke up again, he was awakened by Mu Xue's gentle voice.

"Brother, come and eat something. You were too tired and passed out before, and you didn't have dinner. Here, I brought this for you, eat it quickly."

Mu Xue's voice was like a clear spring in the mountains, crisp and pleasant, and full of care.

She held a pile of food in her hands, including steaming buns that gave off a wheat aroma, and some delicate dim sum, whose tempting colors seemed to be waving to Lin Mo.

"Brother, you have no idea how lively it is outside tonight. There are so many people! There..."

Mu Xue sat on the edge of the bed, her eyes sparkling, and began to share with Lin Mo the interesting things that happened in Luanfeng City tonight with great excitement.

She waved her little hands in the air, gesturing the crowded crowds on the street and the various performances. Her vivid appearance seemed to have brought the entire lively scene before Lin Mo's eyes.

"By the way, I don't know when an idea came to me tonight. It was about you waking up, and no one told me about it. It was like it suddenly came into my mind. It seemed to be this pendant, but it also seemed not to be it.

I told this to Sister Ziyuan, but she told me I was overthinking it. After this thought came to my mind, I lost the mood to go shopping and kept thinking about it.

Mu Xue frowned and spoke with a confused look on her face, her cute little face full of confusion about this strange thing.

When Lin Mo heard Mu Xue's words, the very soft voice immediately emerged in his mind: "Brother! You're awake! You're finally awake!" He frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.

Now that he thought about it carefully, he discovered the clue. He subconsciously lowered his head to look at the Golden Crow Twin Jade on his chest.

The Golden Crow Twin Jades sparkled mysteriously under the light, as if hiding countless secrets.

"It should be this Golden Crow Twin Jade. It seems this thing is really useful! It really is a good thing. Maybe it will have some new functions in the future."

Lin Mo gently stroked the Golden Crow Twin Jade, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

Lin Mo and Mu Xue were chatting idly, enjoying this warm moment, but the tranquility was broken by an uninvited guest.

"Xue'er, let's go, it's time to go to bed, it's already midnight!"

A voice came from the door, its tone filled with unquestionable authority.

Lin Mo looked towards the door with some displeasure, only to see the hateful guy in his eyes - Ziyuan standing there.

Ziyuan has a graceful figure and a pretty face, but in Lin Mo's eyes, she looks like a bad person who destroys the beautiful atmosphere.

"okay!"

When Muxue heard Ziyuan calling her, she immediately turned around obediently and skipped towards the door.

Of course, she did not forget to turn around and say goodbye to Lin Mo. Her sweet smile was like the brightest star in the night sky, which made Lin Mo's originally bad mood a little better.
