Mu Xue and Mu Xue

"Emmm, okay, by the way, speaking of the outskirts of the city, I'm going to take you there tonight. There's so much delicious food, fun things to do, and things to see! I guarantee you'll be hooked once you get there!"

Ziyuan shouted excitedly, his eyes flashing with anticipation, as if outside the city was a mysterious world full of endless treasures, just waiting for them to open.

Mu Xue didn't say anything, but lowered her head and began to think.

Her heart was like a turbulent sea, with thoughts colliding violently.

On the one hand, past experiences made her realize that once she stepped out of this seemingly safe shelter, danger would likely follow her like a shadow, and that going out would bring no good.

But on the other hand, the scene depicted by Ziyuan is like an extremely attractive magnet, emitting an irresistible temptation.

The imagination of delicious food, the yearning for novelty and fun, and the outline of gorgeous scenery kept appearing in her mind, which made her fall into an extremely difficult choice.

Ziyuan seemed to have the ability to read minds and could keenly see what Muxue was thinking.

She patted her chest confidently and said to Mu Xue, "Don't worry, I'm here!

No one dares to act rashly!

If there really is someone, I will kill him for you!"

When Ziyuan said this, she held her head high and chest out, her tone was heroic and majestic, and her demeanor was as if she was a king who could dominate everything. The troubles in the world were just a piece of cake in front of her. As long as she gave an order, all dangers would be wiped out.

Muxue looked up at Ziyuan and saw her firm and confident expression, which made her heart move slightly.

Then, Mu Xue took a deep breath, as if mustering up great courage, and made an important decision.

"All right!"

These two simple words, uttered from her mouth, seemed to carry a tremendous force, implying that she was willing to take that unknown step.

Then they chatted for a few more words, and after a while Lin Mo came back.

Lin Mo was holding a few steaming buns and some cakes in his hands. They looked no different from what they had eaten before.

"Mmm~ It smells so good. Since you bought it for me, I'll let you know. Remember, from now on, my breakfast will be yours!"

Ziyuan munched on the biscuit in her hand while smilingly handing over a rather "important" task to Lin Mo. Her matter-of-fact look made people laugh.

"what!"

Lin Mo subconsciously let out a cry of surprise, clearly caught off guard by this sudden "task." "Why? You don't want to?"

Ziyuan glared at Lin Mo fiercely, as if to say, if you dare to say "no", you will be in trouble.

"Yes, yes."

Although Lin Mo hurriedly agreed, the reluctance on his face was like a vivid painting, clearly displayed in front of everyone. His frowning brows and slightly pouting mouth were silently telling of his inner helplessness.

There was nothing to do today, so Lin Mo practiced at home during the day.

He sat in that quiet corner, immersed in his own world of cultivation. The surroundings were so quiet that only his light breathing could be heard.

Except for going out to buy food at lunch, I never went out at other times.

The door was like a barrier, temporarily isolating him from the outside world. In this small world, he quietly improved his strength.

The sun in the sky quickly set, and the blue sky gradually turned black. The stars were like diligent little employees, going out to work on time.

They twinkle with faint but charming light in the night sky, like bright gems embellishing the dark night.

"Xue'er, let's go out of town and go shopping!!"

Ziyuan woke Muxue up early.

At this time, Mu Xue was still wandering in her dreams. She didn't want to go out, but she didn't want to disturb others' practice because of herself, so she chose to go to sleep to pass her free time.

"what?

Sister Ziyuan, what did you say?

Mu Xue asked sleepily, with a hint of confusion in her voice.

"Let's go out and eat something good!"

Ziyuan said loudly, his voice full of excitement and eagerness.

When Mu Xue heard this, her hazy eyes suddenly became clear, as if they were injected with a magical power.

My brain, which had not yet fully "turned on", immediately entered the power-on state, and all the sleepiness disappeared without a trace in an instant.

"it is good!

let's go!!!"

Muxue put on her clothes quickly like a happy little bird, and then got out of bed. Her movements were so agile that it was amazing. She was looking forward to the upcoming trip out of the city.

"By the way, Linglong, are you going?"

Before Muxue left, her eyes were full of reluctance and expectation. She bent down slightly and softly asked Linglong, who had just fallen asleep in her arms.

The voice was as gentle as the spring breeze, gently brushing past the delicate ears.

Linglong shook her head gently, and her furry head swayed from side to side, as if silently expressing her decision.

There was a hint of laziness and indifference in her eyes, and she seemed to have no interest in the hustle and bustle outside the city.

When Mu Xue saw Linglong shaking her head, a hint of loss clearly flashed in her bright eyes, and her originally high spirits dimmed a little, like a flower in full bloom that was suddenly attacked by a light rain.

But that was only a moment, and she quickly adjusted her mood.

After turning around, she ran out the door like a happy little deer, her light footsteps seeming to carry infinite longing for an unknown journey.

After Muxue left, Linglong walked out of the room slowly and gracefully with the steps of a fox.

Each of her steps was extremely light and rhythmic, as if the ground beneath her feet was an exquisite stage and she was the protagonist on the stage.

Then, it jumped lightly and landed on the roof with an agile posture.

The series of movements were smooth and seamless, as if they had been rehearsed hundreds of times, and the skill was amazing.

It squatted on the roof, looking quietly in the direction where Muxue left, with a hint of imperceptible concern in its eyes.

Mu Xue came to the door and waited quietly for Zi Yuan to call Lin Mo.

She stood there, looking inside the house from time to time, her heart full of curiosity and anticipation.

But after waiting for a while, only Ziyuan came out.

"Eh?

My brother isn't going?"

There was a hint of surprise and confusion in Mu Xue's voice. She frowned slightly, her eyes full of confusion.

"Yes, he won't go. Let's go. The two of us will go. He needs to practice. After all, the competition is coming soon. If he can cultivate a star, he will have a better chance of winning."

Ziyuan shrugged helplessly. Although she also hoped that her brother could go with her, she also understood the importance of cultivation to Lin Mo at this time.

"Okay, let's go."

Mu Xue's mouth corners curled down slightly, showing some displeasure, but she didn't show it too much.

She just followed Ziyuan silently and walked towards the outside of the city.

The two went to the busy market outside the city together.

When we left, the sun had already slowly set. When it reached the edge of the mountain, only its red head was visible, dyeing the sky a brilliant red. The picturesque scenery made people intoxicated.

But they were so focused on getting on with their journey that they didn't stop to appreciate it for too long.

By the time they arrived outside the city, the sun had completely disappeared below the horizon, night began to fall, and a few stars were already twinkling in the sky, like gems inlaid in the black sky, emitting a faint but charming light.

"This Huayan City is really huge!

It took so long to get out of the city.”

Muxue sighed as she walked. Although she and Ziyuan were both walking, there was no sign of fatigue on her face. Instead, she looked excited and curious.

"how?

Xueer, do you want to stay here?

This place is indeed very big and the housing prices are very expensive, but it is not bad! "

Ziyuan blinked mischievously, turned his head to look at Muxue, with a hint of teasing in his eyes.

“Here?

No, I like quieter places, and the scenery here isn't that great, not as good as where we are!"

Mu Xue raised her head slightly and looked into the distance. Although this place was very prosperous with people coming and going and it was very lively, she felt it was too noisy.

She thought that if there was someone always by her side, she might consider staying, but life is unpredictable and people will always be away for some reason. At that time, this prosperity would make her feel even more lonely and desolate.

"Hahaha, I didn't expect Xue'er to be such an elegant person!" Ziyuan laughed heartily, and the laughter echoed in the night sky, adding a different color to the quiet night.
