When a person is in a high-ranking position, their words carry the law.

Chapter 108 The Demon Blood Five Years Ago
A faint aura swirled around Mu Yaoguang, and the previous "human scent" returned, even making Bai Ze feel a bit pungent.

"See? I don't need to use the dirty methods you're thinking of."

Mu Yaoguang looked at Bai Ze and said, "Manipulating primordial energy is like instinct for us. When you cultivate the 'Cantong Qi' to the fourth level, you can also do this. Using primordial energy to imitate various smells is to transform primordial energy into various different types of energy. As long as it does not deviate from the Yin-Yang and Qiankun system, it can be done at will."

“I see,” Bai Ze suddenly realized, “So it’s chocolate that tastes like poop… cough cough cough cough.”

A pungent smell of excrement wafted over, and Bai Ze waved his hands repeatedly to disperse it, but the smell still made him cough repeatedly and even gag.

Oh no, I forgot that women are very vengeful.

"You are the only one who talks a lot."

Mu Yaoguang rolled her eyes, but a smile remained on her face.

After this round of banter, the online camaraderie became a reality.

Once Bai Ze had recovered, Mu Yaoguang put away her smile and said calmly, "You're right. Even if it's fake, the smell is still a smell, and I can still smell it. I originally couldn't stand this smell either, and because my cultivation of true qi was too close to the pure qi of heaven, I became intolerant of turbid qi."

"But one day, when I was unable to move my legs and had to crawl three kilometers in the mud to survive, I suddenly realized that my obsession with cleanliness and intolerance to foul air were actually quite simple."

She spoke calmly, but just thinking about it made Bai Ze feel like he was in hell.

He already has mild mysophobia, and Mu Yaoguang's condition will only be more severe.

It's not just about being a germaphobe; it's also about a huge psychological gap.

The higher a person climbs, the more devastating their fall will be.

Originally possessing the appearance of a celestial being, they fell to the mortal realm and could only crawl on the ground.

Let alone people with OCD, even those without OCD might break down due to such a huge difference.

"Five years ago, I led a team to explore the intersection space that appeared overseas and encountered the vice leader of the Great Freedom Demonic Cult. In order to get the students and teachers of Yujing Martial Arts University and the people of the Martial Arts Association who were traveling with me to leave, I agreed to the challenge. However, I was defeated and my heart was pierced, my dantian was destroyed, and my physical strength and central soul were severed at the same time."

Mu Yaoguang said slowly, "At that time, I actually thought I was going to die for sure, but he let me go. After that, I crawled for three kilometers, crawled out of the intersection, waited for the rescue team, and gained a chance to live. I thought that was the end of this ordeal, but I didn't expect that the misfortune had just begun."

"Because your teacher's own grandson was also attacked?" Bai Ze asked.

Previously, the "Mouth King" had told him that when Mu Yaoguang's grandson was attacked and was on the verge of death, he had no choice but to use the Golden Elixir that Yujing Martial Arts University had brought back from the Yuan Realm, which also dashed Mu Yaoguang's hopes of recovery.

"What if I told you that the people who attacked him were also from the Great Freedom Demonic Cult?"

Mu Yaoguang asked a question in return, and then said, "The people of the Great Freedom Demonic Sect are influenced by the Great Freedom Demon Lord and are most skilled at manipulating people's hearts. They gave my teacher two choices, and in the end, my teacher chose my grandson's life. Besides that golden pill, there is actually another way for me to recover."

Mu Yaoguang looked at Qi Fangwei's corpse.

Or rather, look at the blood suspended on Qi Fangwei's corpse.

——Great free demon blood.

Bai Ze immediately thought of the other path that Mu Yaoguang had mentioned.

Mu Yaoguang confirmed Bai Ze's conjecture, saying, "They want me to be driven to the brink of despair, to resonate with the Great Freedom Demon Lord, and to receive the baptism of demonic blood. That's why they injured me but didn't kill me, whether it was me or someone else."

"After the Golden Elixir was used, although I survived, I was rendered a cripple. I saved many people, and Yujing Martial Arts University and the Martial Arts Association did not treat me unfairly, but some things will not change because of kindness. For example, my position, my voice..." In short, it's a case of being forgotten once you're gone.

If a general loses his ability to command, he can only retire; if a cook loses his hands, he can only give up cooking.

For a martial artist, the most crucial element is, of course, strength.

Mu Yaoguang personally led the team to explore the other world, which required strength.

To hold a high position in the martial arts association, one needs strength.

No matter how great Mu Yaoguang's contributions are, without real strength, she can't live up to her past achievements.

While treating meritorious officials well is one thing, it doesn't preclude Mu Yaoguang from retiring behind the scenes. Giving her time and concealing her injuries is already a considerable favor.

It could also be said that the Martial Arts Association and Yujing Martial Arts University were farsighted, and did not give up on the geniuses they discovered were crippled, as in the novels, only to be humiliated by the resurgent geniuses.

"So, that's how you knew the Great Freedom Demon Blood would appear?" Bai Ze also looked at Qi Fangwei's corpse and asked the question that had been hidden in his heart.

Only now did he realize the meaning behind the "King of Mouth's" final reply.

Let nature take its course...
Isn't this the result of "letting nature take its course"?

There's no need to do much; just let things unfold naturally until the demonic blood appears.

It was because she had anticipated this that she impersonated Luo Shui and came to the Public Security Bureau with Bai Ze.

Although Mu Yaoguang appeared to be keeping to herself, she was probably the one who knew the situation best.

As for why they were so certain that the Great Freedom Demon Lord would reappear decades later, it was naturally deduced from their experience five years ago.

If the Great Freedom Demon Lord is still seriously injured and unable to bestow demonic blood, then why would the Great Freedom Demonic Sect go to such lengths to scheme against Mu Yaoguang?

All they did was to put Mu Yaoguang in a desperate situation and force her to accept the demonic blood.

“At first, I couldn’t be sure that the Great Freedom Demon Blood would appear, until Li Yundong’s son performed the sacrifice. He wasn’t qualified to sense the Great Freedom Demon Lord, but the Great Freedom’s gaze had clearly already fallen on Canghai City.”

Mu Yaoguang looked at the floating blood, her eyes reflecting a beautiful crimson hue.

"As for why I am so certain that the Great Freedom Demon Lord will reappear, it is of course because..."

She slightly raised her head, and the hazy crimson color transformed into blood clouds, constantly undulating and fluctuating in her field of vision.

Compared to the scene of demonic blood descending that Qi Fangwei had witnessed before, what Mu Yaoguang saw was a thousand times, ten thousand times more intense.

"I once resonated with the Great Freedom Demon Lord."

"The Great Freedom Demon Blood has been lingering in front of me for five years."

The Great Freedom Demonic Sect's scheme succeeded. Mu Yaoguang was in dire straits, and her intense emotions attracted the attention and demonic blood of the Great Freedom Sect.

However, they also failed because Mu Yaoguang did not accept the demon blood.
