"Mu Xuanji, do you still want to continue pretending to be asleep?"

Mu Yin obviously noticed that Qingxuan, who was leaning on his back, had woken up, but he didn't seem to show any signs of explaining his identity.

"I'm just tired. The attack just now took away all my soul."

He thought Mu Yin was resisting him by leaning on her, so he stood up and held on, looking tired.

"Also, my name is not Mu Xuanji, my name is Qingxuan."

He didn't know why the black-haired woman and the man in front of him mistook him for him. Could it be that his face made it easy to mistake him for someone else?

Mu Yin's heart skipped a beat. She had experienced it before, but she couldn't believe that such a change had happened to Mu Xuanji.

"You don't remember me? Then Mu Yi..."

"I have no memory, how can I remember it?"

Qingxuan stopped talking. He knew that the forbidden technique could not be revealed, otherwise the whole Qingming would be conquered.

Forbidden arts are explicitly prohibited by the spirit world, even the God Emperor is no exception.

He had no memory before he was resurrected, but he was not very willing to believe Qing Min's words.

On the contrary, he became more and more convinced of Mu Yi's identification - Mu Yin also had a feeling that was extremely familiar to him.

When he realized that he saw her in danger, his body subconsciously took action to protect her at the expense of itself.

But if you can't remember everything, there is no need for absolute trust in either Qingmin or these two people.

"Don't remember? Then why did you save me just now?!"

Mu Yin became more and more excited, turned around and pulled off Qing Xuan's mask, and the face that was extremely nostalgic and fascinated her appeared in front of her eyes again.

A pair of quiet and clear dark green eyes, handsome and elegant facial features, but at this moment, there was a sense of alienation and fear that he would never show to her.

"Sure enough...how could I just realize it now..."

Her fingers were trembling more and more, but Qingxuan avoided Mu Yin's touch without leaving any trace.

"Sir, I told you that I am not your old friend."

She was haunted by dreams, imagining the hopeless reunion in every possible way, but she never imagined that the pain she had inflicted on him would now have to be tried again by herself.

Qingxuan doesn't know why he doesn't want to get close to him now, but he also knows the reason——

Even if he now understands his past identity, he cannot escape the shackles of his present.

If you cannot break free from the shackles, then it is futile to try to recover the cherished things from the past.

He can't keep it...

If they could meet him after he was free, he thought he would definitely not be as cowardly as he is now...

Mu Yin still refused to give up. She finally met him and the love she thought she would never see again in this life——

If she gives up without fighting for it, she is not Mu Yin!

She removed the illusion that covered the unicorn horn wound and revealed her biggest flaw to him.

"I broke this horn for you! To compensate me, you used blood as medicine and sent it to Yukun for me to support me. Don't you remember this?"

Qingxuan's hand was placed on the broken part of the horn. The shocking ruggedness and ferociousness made his heart flutter, but he instinctively retracted his hand. Some pictures seemed to emerge from somewhere in his mind, trying to tear apart his thoughts.

He originally thought that the physical pain was insignificant, but the feeling he experienced now was more unbearable than every previous injury.

"...Don't be like this..."

He stood up and jumped down, his shaky figure fell down with a push. The young man obviously planned to return to the Blood City on his own.

His forbearing expression was also very familiar to her. Mu Yin thought that he was stimulated, so she jumped deep and hurriedly ran towards him after landing.

"Wait... I can't do it anymore... Don't leave!!!"

She was about to catch up with the ethereal figure who was gradually retreating, when a hand suddenly stretched out from the ground. The next moment, before Mu Yin could react, the hand and her disappeared together.

Qingxuan also turned around in horror and rushed to the place where Mu Yin disappeared. A strange demonic aura and residual space aura made it clear that the person who was trying to retain him just now was no longer here.

"Space moving..." He lowered his body and looked carefully at the clods of soil that were moved with Mu Yin. There were still blood stains of the demon clan in them. "I waited until now to start the ambush...not with the mercenaries!"

He looked at the gradually disappearing barrier of Blood City, frowned, and felt unprecedented anxiety in his heart.

"Not with the mercenaries... The people who invaded the city obviously took advantage of the war... So..."

Three parties! One party is the most powerful mercenary, the second party should be the mastermind behind the mercenaries who infiltrated Blood City... The third party should be the demon believers who have never appeared in front of him!

"The demon believers took Mu Yin away...their purpose was only one from beginning to end!"

Resurrection Qiongqi——

In this case, Mu Yin must have the key to resurrecting Qiongqi, otherwise they would not have been dormant until now...

The interests of the three parties are all different, which leads to different methods and locations of action!

The ferocious beast also rushed to Mu Xuanji's side. It also recognized that this man was the fiancé that its owner had cared about for a hundred years, and it neighed helplessly, eager and confused.

The master has disappeared! No breath has been left!

It shouldn't have let its owner chase it alone just now!

Qingxuan rubbed his chin, took a deep breath, and quickly regained his composure.

He reached out and touched the ferocious beast's mane, and spoke solemnly——

"Send me back, take the black-haired girl over there, and then immediately go along the main road in the city to the outskirts of the back city, and inform other people, the more the better!"

After saying that, he climbed onto its back with some difficulty, and the ferocious beast ran wildly again, its speed somewhat out of control.

On the blood city moat, the city lord shed tears as he looked at the old people who were ready to die.

"It's my incompetence! Let all the elders not be able to enjoy their old age and end their lives in this way!"

The tall and muscular body suddenly knelt down, and he kowtowed deeply to these old people who had guarded the Blood City for hundreds of years.

At this moment, he is not the lord of a city, but an ordinary citizen protected by these old people.

The old people looked at the gradually disappearing barrier of the Blood City, and then calmly looked at the bloody moat under the city wall, with relieved expressions on their faces.

"Stop, mother-in-law! You are also an adult, how can you let a child see you like this?"

"That's right! It would be great if we all die! We can free up some food and houses for future generations, and we can gain a good reputation! Why not?"

"City Lord... we have to die to give our children a chance to live. If we don't stand up now, let alone family happiness, it's hard to say whether the family will have anything left!"

The man's heart was full of sadness. Now he could only choose to save the Blood City first. Bai Yu was captured. The princess would definitely blame him when she came back. He was unable to repay his debt to the princess. At least he had to do it as the city lord who had been the city lord for a hundred years.

Do your duty!

If he fails to fulfill his responsibilities as a retainer, then as a leader, he must never fail in his duties again!

The old people stood on the city wall one after another. Below them was the roiling blood, but their rickety figures were the pillars supporting the world.

The city lord stood silently behind them, a bloody rune appeared on his arm.

As long as he kills these old men and throws their flesh and blood into the moat, all the defensive energy accumulated in the barrier for hundreds of years will be converted into attacks, eroding all enemies in the entire Blood City.

“Wait a minute—!!!!!”

Qingxuan rushed up to the city wall and stopped the city lord. He was covered in cold sweat. The intense exertion just now and the amount of exercise from running to the top of the city made his body exhausted.

"The enemies outside have been cleared! I just took a look inside the city. The enemies who raided the city have left. Your release of barrier energy now will have no effect!"

Qingxuan's increasingly serious expression let the city lord know that he was not simply bringing good news, and as expected——

"The demon believers have started a strange resurrection ceremony to guide the energy there. I will find a way to seal it again!"

At the edge of the battlefield, Mu Ji's cold poison could no longer be contained, and a layer of frost formed on her body.

"Stay away from me. There's no need to move. I'll freeze you too later!"

She pushed away the bird of prey and knelt down on the ground, her whole body seemed to have turned into an ice sculpture.

"Dream! Get up! Go back to the city, Mu Yin has a way to save you! She must have a way!"

Regardless of the freezing temperature on her body, Gen Zhi carried Mu Ji on her back again, and her teeth began to chatter.

"She...has no demonic power anymore...my cold poison can only be suppressed by the demonic power of fire attribute..."

Mu Yi looked like she was about to explain her funeral - after all, she really felt death now.

She wasn't afraid of being stabbed or burned. Those were the ways of death that she wasn't afraid of, and she wasn't afraid of them at all.

But she is most afraid of the cold... She has been afraid of it since she was a child, let alone being infected with cold poison now...

"You...go back and tell Mu Yin...my brother's memory has not been restored...don't bully him...and don't force it...tell Long Ran...the contract with the jade pendant should be terminated...don't pester my brother...let my brother

When I get back, I will tell my family that I am traveling..."

"Bah! Don't say those bad words! I won't let you die! Go back and say these things yourself! Say whatever you want!"

Even though he said this, he was still very scared. Mu Yi's heartbeat was almost inaudible, and there was only endless coldness left on her body.

If she hadn't been forcing herself to keep mumbling words, Gen Zhi would definitely have thought she was dead!

"Is there anything you can do to stop it from getting colder? I'll do whatever I can to help you!"
