Grudge Breaker

Chapter 335 Pressing forward step by step
-
"Weiwei, do you know what you are saying?"

His voice was dry and tense, and Mo Tingfeng even felt that it was not his own voice.

Song Weichen did not answer, her attitude said it all.

Inside the "Yuanjian", the fog became thicker and thicker, lingering around the three people, making each other's faces gradually become obscured.

Therefore, Mo Tingfeng couldn't see Song Weichen clearly - he didn't want to see it too clearly, because what's the point of seeing it so clearly? It would only add to the sadness.

If he saw her in Gu Cangyue's arms again, and saw the affection in each other's eyes, he didn't know if he would be unable to resist destroying the Yuan cocoon directly, causing the Luan Bird's cultivation to collapse and never return.

In the end, she chose him.

With sour eyes, Mo Tingfeng stood with his eyes closed, convinced that it was caused by the miasma in the Yuan cocoon, and it couldn't be the moisture generated by his heart-wrenching pain. He even deceived himself and wanted to blame the thick fog for not only blocking his vision but also affecting his hearing - he must have heard it wrong, Song Weichen must have said "I hope we can be happy."

Love humbles people to the ground.

Mo Tingfeng smiled bitterly at himself, feeling like a stranger.

What he should be most concerned about now should be solving the missing case of the previous White Robe; he should be finding Ruan Mianmian who has been missing for many days; he should be following the clues to kill the necromancer and dig out the mastermind behind the scenes; he should be concentrating on presiding over the upcoming warlock classification trial.

Of course, the most important thing is to remove the death curse that was cast on Song Weichen by the mask of the Ghost King Shita.

After all, you shouldn't get stuck in an emotional rut.

……

"Ting Feng."

Hearing the call, Mo Tingfeng suddenly opened his eyes.

He didn't know when she had come to his side, her eyes were clear, and because of the frost, some tiny ice crystals condensed on her long eyelashes. He saw it clearly, and his heart ached even more.

"Tingfeng, believe me, my feelings for Cangyue are different from those for you."

"There is only one thing that is consistent, I hope you are all well."

Song Weichen sniffed. It was too cold here. If it weren't for the Suzaku Lihuo in her puppet control to help her protect her body temperature and heart meridians, she would probably have turned into a real lump of ice.

"Cang Yue is sick, I can't just ignore it."

"So I will still come to Cangyue Mansion often in the future. If this makes you uncomfortable..."

Song Weichen was rarely serious. She bowed deeply to Mo Tingfeng.
"sorry."

Actually, what Song Weichen meant was that her feelings for Mo Tingfeng were a love between a man and a woman, but she didn't want to provoke Da Niao so she didn't say it clearly - but Mo Tingfeng misunderstood her, and based on the context of her words, he thought she was just trying to draw a line between herself and him.

Especially the word "I'm sorry", which sounded more like announcing the end of their relationship.

"Weiwei, have you thought it through? Have you really... decided?"

When Mo Tingfeng asked the last question, he felt stuffy and suffocated in his heart.

Song Weichen blinked his eyes. Is this matter difficult to decide?
She nodded solemnly.

"Ok!"
.
The backlash from He Dong exceeded the threshold and Mo Tingfeng could no longer bear it. He blocked it with his arm and spat out a mouthful of blood into his arm. Fortunately, he was wearing a dark suit and nothing could be seen.

Feeling weak, he simply sat down on the ground, stretching and bending his long legs, supporting himself with one hand and resting the other arm loosely on his knee to calm himself.

Mingming had encountered an ambush of many monsters in the Far North that were "bewitched by the blood of the beast". He slaughtered the entire mountaintop in the Far North by himself and did not feel tired at that time. But now he was so exhausted that even his breathing seemed to stop.

"Ting Feng...?"

Song Weichen obviously noticed that something was wrong with him and was anxious to take care of him, but Mo Tingfeng raised his hand to stop him.

"No need."

Since she has made her choice, why bother to provoke her again?

"Now is not the time for sentimentality."

He let out a long breath and looked at Gu Cangyue with eagle-like eyes.

"I have something important to discuss."

"This is a matter of life and death. Mo has a few questions for you."

The reason why Gu Cangyue let Mo Tingfeng enter Yuanjian was because of what he said, "It's related to Weiwei's life." With a wave of his brocade sleeves, the thick fog dissipated several feet, and the original tables and chairs in the backyard of Cangyue Mansion were revealed.

He sat down first.

Mo Tingfeng also supported himself to stand up from the ground. Seeing that he looked extremely bad, Song Weichen reached out to help him but was blocked again - she was not stupid, and she immediately realized that Bingtuozi had misunderstood her meaning, "This idiot." However, there was no need to explain it at this moment, after all, business was more important.

The three of them sat down, and Gu Cangyue spoke first, which was rare.
"Inside the Yuan Cocoon, what you say and do cannot be checked by the outside world. There will definitely be no ears behind the walls. Ask."
.
"First question, what is your real purpose for going to the Lord's family banquet?"

Hearing this, Gu Cangyue raised his eyebrows. Is this even a problem?

"Of course it's for Weiwei." Mo Tingfeng didn't say anything, obviously waiting for his next words.

Gu Cangyue pondered for a moment, then casually swept his hand across the table, and a table full of food and wine appeared. He grabbed the wine jug and poured himself a glass.

"And to put on a play."

"I want to make those who have ulterior motives think that I don't care about Song Weichen at all. Only in this way can she be safe and I will have no worries."

After hearing this, Mo Tingfeng also took a pot of wine, and without even using a cup, he just picked it up and poured it out. Seeing him like that, Song Weichen subconsciously wanted to stop him, his fingers showing struggle, but he finally held back.

She knew that he was drinking to drown his sorrows, and heard Gu Cangyue mentioning her in every word. But he also thought that her old love with Da Niao had rekindled, so she was naturally upset.

After two jugs of wine were drunk in a blink of an eye, Mo Tingfeng's eyes turned red. He threw the jug on the table and looked straight at Gu Cangyue.

"The person you are referring to as someone with a grudge is Shu Tinglong?"

"It's not just him."

Gu Cangyue also looked at Mo Tingfeng with a sharp gaze.

"Mr. Mo, be careful of the people around you."

"The more you believe it, the more suspicious it becomes."

Mo Tingfeng leaned forward.
"It's just a joke, but what's the name of this suspicious person?"

Gu Cangyue leaned back against the back of the chair, putting some distance between himself and Mo Tingfeng.

"Now that I've told you, you'll definitely think that I was the one who instigated it. I've already found some clues, and we can talk again once we get the evidence."

……

"it is good."

"Second question, what is your relationship with Shu Tinglong?"

This question made Song Weichen panic. She looked at Gu Cangyue nervously. If he told the truth, it would cause big trouble - not to mention anything else, just the term "auxiliary soul" would lead to countless problems, and each one of them was related to life and death.

Just as I was thinking about how to change the subject, I saw Gu Cangyue smiled faintly and uttered two words softly,
"enemy."

"enemy?"

"Yes, enemy. Either you die or I live."

Mo Tingfeng tapped the table rhythmically with his fingers. He would do this subconsciously when his mind was thinking about a problem quickly. "Knock." "Knock." Each tap seemed to be hitting Song Weichen's heart, making her inexplicably nervous.

……

"The Supreme Gods are different from mortal cultivators. Very few of them can cultivate two souls after reaching a certain level of cultivation. However, the process of giving birth to a new soul is extremely dangerous, almost equivalent to dying once. Therefore, a barrier will automatically appear around the Supreme God's residence to protect him from harm and intrusion. This barrier looks like thick fog, and its function is similar to the cocoon when an insect pupa turns into a butterfly."

As Mo Tingfeng spoke, he paid attention to Gu Cangyue's expression and could not see any emotional fluctuations.

"What I just said was something I heard Yuheng mention by chance at Huashan's place. At that time, Weiwei was... worried that the Undead Temple was suddenly covered in thick fog and that you were in danger. In order to comfort her, Yuheng explained this in detail - I wonder if it is accurate?"

Gu Cangyue didn't know what kind of medicine Mo Tingfeng was selling, so he nodded expressionlessly.

"Okay, then I'll just say it straight."

"I originally suspected that Shu Tinglong was one of your souls, but after thinking about it carefully, I felt that the logic did not make sense. He appeared before you cultivated your dual souls, and now the cocoon has not dispersed, which means that your dual souls have not been truly cultivated, so Shu Tinglong cannot be your soul."

"unless……"

"You already have dual souls. The so-called retreat to the Immortal Temple is just an excuse. There is actually another reason."

"But there is one thing I don't understand. This Yuan cocoon does exist, which means that you are indeed in the process of cultivating dual Yuan souls. This means that you should not have a second Yuan soul yet. This confuses me."

……

Every time Mo Tingfeng said something, Song Weichen broke out in a thin sweat. This man's intuition and insight were truly terrifying. He got almost all the facts right. The only deviation was the timeline. Wait, there were indeed doubts about the Yuan Jian he mentioned. Could it be that...

Could it be that Gu Cangyue is cultivating his third soul?
Song Weichen was shocked by his own thoughts. He had clearly heard Zhuang Yuheng mention before that dual souls were the limit.

But just in case...

Given Gu Cangyue's personality, it's not impossible.

If this is true, Gu Cangyue’s situation is extremely dangerous at the moment. He is really crazy!
Song Weichen was thinking about a lot of things, but he saw Mo Tingfeng approaching Gu Cangyue again.

"There must be some unknown and deep connection between you and Shu Takaki, there is no doubt about that."

……

"The 'evil doll' note I received a few days ago was written by you, right?"
