The Journey of Freedom After the Awakening of the Shadow-Shadow Fruit

As Jingni watched Moria's departing figure, she suddenly felt that her husband was so unfamiliar, as if her previous understanding of him was just the tip of the iceberg.

Zilan Pavilion.

In the private room on the third floor, Moria handed two lunchboxes to the girl in green and said, "They're full of all kinds of dishes. Thank you, Miss Green."

"Please wait a moment, young master." The woman in green smiled and left with two lunchboxes in her hands.

Clang!

Moria had just sat down on the cushion at the long table when Violet opened the door and came in.

"Young master really thinks of our Zilan Pavilion as a restaurant!"

Zi Nu smiled, swaying her slender waist as she sat down opposite Moria.

Moria laughed and said, "Who can blame me when the food at Purple Orchid Pavilion is truly delicious?"

Zi Nu shook her head, poured Moria a cup of tea, and stared at Moria, saying quietly, "Is the only good thing about Zi Lan Xuan just the food?"

Why did he feel that those words were implying something?

Moria picked up his teacup, nodded to Zi Nu, then smiled, looked into her eyes, and said directly, "Why do I eat at Zi Lan Xuan instead of a restaurant? Can't you see my purpose, Miss Zi Nu?"

Zi Nu smiled and said, "Oh! Zi Nu really doesn't know why you came to Zi Lan Xuan just to pack some food. You might as well just say it."

Moria laughed and said, "It's already very good to be able to sit with Miss Zi Nu and drink the tea that Miss Zi Nu poured for me, just like this."

"Young master is too kind!" Zi Nu smiled, then asked casually, "By the way, I still don't know where you come from?"

"Me?" Moriah took a sip of tea.

Zi Nu pricked up her ears and listened carefully.

Moria smiled, put down his teacup, and said, "I come from a place called China."

China?

It's not one of the Seven Kingdoms, and I've never heard of such a country in the surrounding area.

Is it

Zi Nu gave Moria a resentful look and said, "Young Master is joking with Zi Nu. There is no country in the world called Hua Guo."

Moria smiled without saying a word, thinking to himself: China! Yes, it exists, it's just not the right time yet.

Seeing that Moria didn't want to talk much about his birthplace and other information, Zi Nu didn't ask any more questions, and the two started chatting about other random things.

Most of the talking was done by Violet, while Moria acted as an audience member.

It wasn't until Moria left with the lunchbox that Zi Nu realized she had unknowingly talked a lot about herself.

She almost told Moria about her past.

"You're in danger!" Wei Zhuang said coldly as he looked at Zi Nu, who seemed to have snapped out of her daze.

Chapter 225 Facing Wei Zhuang

Drizzle, drizzle!

It started raining right after we finished dinner.

The sisters, Ehuang and Nüying, were tidying up the dishes in the kitchen, doing what maids were supposed to do.

Moria carried Xiaoyan to the eaves of the backyard, looking at the rain in the distance and the rain falling from the eaves, teasing Xiaoyan from time to time.

The little girl has grown up now, all pink and cute.

Her hair is smooth now. When she was born, her hair looked like it had been pickled, and it had no vitality at all.

Jingni walked over, carrying two cushions in her hands.

"Husband, may Xiaoyan take your surname from now on?" Jingni put down the cushion and came to Moria's side to ask.

In this era, having a surname or not makes a big difference.

Without a surname, like her, one can only have a name like Jian.

This is not an honor, but a humiliation of being labeled as an inferior person.

Jingni doesn't want her women to be like her, but it all depends on Moria's wishes.

After all, once they take Moria's surname, it's equivalent to acknowledging Moria as their father.

Before this, Moria had never called Xiaoyan'er "daughter" or anything like that, and Jingni was still a little worried that Moria wouldn't agree.

"His surname is Mo, and his given name is Mo Yan."

Moriah was stunned when he heard Jing Ni's words. He looked at Xiao Yan'er in his arms and then at Jing Ni's expectant gaze.

This is to make him take over and become Xiaoyan'er's father.

He can accept

Moria quickly smiled at Jingni and said, "Alright, from now on, you'll be called Mo Yan."

These words were tantamount to acknowledging the relationship between Xiaoyan and him.

Even the mother of the woman has accepted him; it's not bad to get a daughter for free.

Moreover, although Xiao Yan'er did not inherit his bloodline, he did give her innate spiritual energy.

Without him, Xiao Yan'er would have died.

He gave the little one a new life, a newborn spirit that reshaped her wisdom. In a sense, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she was his own daughter.

"Thank you, my husband!"

Upon hearing Moria's agreement, Jingni was overjoyed and immediately bowed.

"Little guy, you've finally been officially recognized today, so let me, your adoptive father, give you a gift!"

Moria smiled, lifted Xiao Yan'er out with both hands, and with the help of the light from the beeswax lantern, manipulated the shadow to merge into Xiao Yan'er's shadow, and infused it with the life energy of the more than twenty-meter-long snake.

With the physical evolution brought about by this life energy, Xiao Yan'er's physical talent, coupled with the powerful reshaped innate spiritual energy, will surely make her a peerless swordsman in the future.

Moreover, her physical strength allowed her to overcome the inherent weakness of women being physically weaker than men.

If Xiao Yan'er could reach the level of Luo Wang Jing Ni in the original novel, and then face Wei Zhuang and Gai Nie, she might not necessarily lose.

"My husband, will we continue to live like this forever?"

Looking at the rain outside, Jingni gently leaned on Moriah's shoulder.

"Will do!"

Moria smiled and held Xiao Yan'er high, "We will continue to live like this."

night.

Jingni did not refuse Moria's advances. The two of them, their clothes gradually loosening, remained unrepentant. They were silly and mischievous, playing with each other like dragons and pearls, reaping the benefits without lifting a finger. After a series of eighteen moves by Awei, it was already late at night.

But before Moria could fall asleep with the beauty in his arms...

In the shadow space, a shadowy servant brought news that a battle had taken place in the outskirts of Xinzheng City.

"I'm going out!"

Moria immediately got up, and with a thought, his shadow enveloped his entire body, transforming into a black trench coat that he wore.

"Is there danger?" Jing Ni's expression hardened, and she got out of bed.

"No! You can go back to sleep, I'll be right back." With that, Moria left.

Jingni was far from asleep and quickly got dressed.

However, by the time she came out, Moria had already left.

Xinzheng suburbs

The Valley of Broken Souls is said to be the place where the State of Han massacred surrendered soldiers of the State of Zheng.

At that moment, the rain was pouring down, and a group of ghost soldiers floating in mid-air were slaughtering the South Korean soldiers escorting the army.

"what!"

"not good!!"

"Military pay is decreasing!!"

During the battle, some soldiers noticed that the gold in the rain was gradually decreasing and then disappearing into thin air.

"Run!"

"The ghost soldiers are invincible!!"

After seeing the soldiers' surprise, the two princes exchanged a glance, then turned their horses around and galloped towards Xinzheng City.

The ghost soldiers who were indiscriminately slaughtering the soldiers completely ignored the two princes who were leading the troops.

On a hilltop beside the Valley of Broken Souls, where lush trees provided shade, Moria, like Batman in the darkness, silently appeared behind a large tree.

"Ok!"

"Wei Zhuang and Zi Nu have arrived too!"

As soon as he appeared, Moria leaned out and looked at the opposite mountain.

It was pitch black in the rainy night, so there was no one to be seen, but his Observation Haki senses were accurate.

The people opposite him who were also watching the massacre were Wei Zhuang and Zi Nu.

"That ghost soldier must be the real body!"

Ignoring Wei Zhuang and Zi Nu, Moria stepped forward and looked down at the ghost soldiers in the valley.

According to Observation Haki, the aura of one of the demon soldiers was no different from that of a human.

The other ghost soldiers are all transformed from crows with some internal energy.

"If I'm not mistaken, this is the guy who suddenly entered the range of my Observation Haki when I was sparring with the Ehuang and Nüying sisters last night."

"I think his name is Mo Ya!"

Moria thought to himself, "In the anime, only Black Raven has this ability to control crows, so he's easy to recognize."

"what!"

"Unkillable! The ghost soldiers are unkillable!!"
