After Xu Nuo covered her eyes with her hands, this cold and aloof woman seemed to have a more indescribable charm.

"Who knows? Isn't this something that you, the Ten Kings Division, need to investigate? I have a demonic body, and my mind is a little unclear. You can check carefully to see if I have been influenced by someone and my consciousness is being controlled."

Chapter 28 He Can't Be the Envoy

Jingliu and Xu Nuo were detained together by the Ten Kings Division. Of course, although they were detained, in fact, the two were only invited by a friendly manner to stay temporarily at the Ten Kings Division’s headquarters.

The judge did not convict the two men, nor did he put them in prison. This could be considered a compromise of some kind.

"Sister, you are too impulsive. We shouldn't have clashed with Jingliu Jianshou like this."

"I don't understand. I don't understand why Jing Liu wants to protect that foreigner, and I don't understand why my little sister wants to bend the law for personal gain."

"This is not a case of partiality or bending the law. This is a matter of human nature and it is very difficult to explain."

"However, the law is merciless. As judges of the Ten Kings Division, we should only obey the orders of the Ten Kings, eradicate all the serious criminals who have committed the Ten Unforgivable Evils, suppress all the evil demons that have touched the immortality, and use our lives to protect the peace of the Immortal Boat."

"That's right, but...but..."

Jackdaw opened his mouth and wanted to explain, but looking at his sister's serious face, he couldn't utter a word for a long time.

She held her sister's hands, which were cold to the touch.

My sister's body has no feeling. It has been cold since a long time ago.

After all, there is no perfect eternal life in this world. The price of uploading consciousness is the gradual erosion of emotions and personality.

Xue Yi, who can no longer even laugh, naturally doesn't understand the ways of the world. In her eyes, there are only the orders of the Ten Kings and the rules of the Ten Kings Bureau. She is willing to give everything to maintain all of this, just like a loyal puppet.

The Jackdaw hugged Snow Coat tightly in his arms, unwilling to let go even if this cold steel body bumped into his body.

"Little sister..."

Xue Yi seemed a little confused, but after thinking for a moment, she slowly folded her arms and hugged her sister.

Her memory had been worn out too much, but she still vaguely remembered that they had hugged like this many times, and she also remembered that hugging like this seemed to be a very important thing.

"I am not being reckless. I have great respect for Jingliu Jianshou and have no intention of treating him with contempt. But that young man... I really cannot trust him completely. He is too mysterious and strange, and he must be hiding some secrets. But I also have no intention of making things difficult for him. I originally just wanted him to stay at the Ten Kings Division for a while, and then slowly conduct an investigation."

"I just can't understand why Jingliu Jianshou and Miss Bai Heng want to protect that boy so much, when they have only been in contact for less than a day. Isn't this unreasonable?"

"But neither Jingliu Jianshou nor Miss Bai Heng seem to be affected. But Jingliu Jianshou's mental state is indeed not stable. She may not have much time left."

The Jackdaw said this and let out a soft sigh.

Whether it is her, Xue Yi or Jing Liu, they are all survivors of the disaster that happened on the Cangcheng Immortal Boat.

If the mirror flows into extinction, there will be very few people left who were alive back then.

And what about myself, how long can I hold on?

Although there are the secret methods of the Ten Kings Division and the wine of the River of Oblivion to suppress emotions and the evil spirit, all this is not without a price.

My sister has forgotten more and more things, and I am almost the same.

"As for Miss Bai Heng, it's probably out of sympathy. Miss Bai Heng originally liked to frequent several orphanages on Luofu, bringing toys and snacks to the children there. She herself likes children very much. The child who calls himself Xu Nuo does have a very tragic life story."

"But that background is fake. We don't even know his true origins. Miss Bai Heng should be able to understand and comprehend it, right?"

It’s hard for me to say. Judging from Miss Bai Heng’s expression when she left, she must have gone to inform Yun Wu’s companions.

When he thought about the fact that among the Five Warriors on the Cloud there was the Dragon Lord Yin Yue Jun and the brave guards of the Cloud Cavalry Army, Jackdaw felt a headache.

Maybe tomorrow the Chiming Clan and the Yunqi Army will find the door of the Ten Kings Division, and even General Teng Xiao will be alarmed.

Then, the news that Jingliu Demon's Yin body was detained by the Ten Kings Division would spread on the Immortal Boat, causing chaos and turmoil, which would increase his own work.

No, I can’t think about this anymore.

"Let's not talk about his background for now, but his illness is real. I read the diagnosis of the doctor of Dan Ding Division. He is born with a serious neurological disease caused by a genetic defect. There is not even any trace of effective treatment or medication on his body. There are only many superficial and even barbaric methods. It can be determined that he should come from a civilization with underdeveloped technology and may not have left his home planet. It stands to reason that he should not live more than ten years, but he is now fifteen years old. The doctors of Dan Ding Division think this is simply a miracle."

"These can also be disguised. They are nothing compared to the power of the Plague Ancestor."

"No, on the contrary, if he was really watched by the Ancestor of Longevity, Plague and Disaster and received the blessing, there shouldn't be such marks on his body. The Star God will not go against his destiny. If the Ancestor of Longevity, Plague and Disaster really watched him, then he must have been able to cure his illness. He may pretend to be weak or seriously injured, but it is absolutely impossible for him to still have physical defects like he does now. This is absolutely impossible, so he is definitely not the messenger of the Ancestor of Longevity, Plague and Disaster."

Jackdaw only figured this out later. Before that, she lost her composure because of Xue Yi's inference and her fear of the name Shuhu.

Xue Yi was silent because she found that what her sister said seemed to be right.

Perhaps the boy was under the influence of ordinary fertility power, but the possibility of being directly watched by a star god was low.

"I'm sorry, little sister, because of my willfulness..."

"Of course, although he can't be the envoy, it doesn't mean he is completely innocent. In short, there are still many mysteries about him, and we still need to continue investigating. According to the rules, he does need to be temporarily detained by our Ten Kings Division, so sister, there is no need to blame yourself for this. Pay close attention to the boy for the next few days. I will use the dream interpretation method on him to see if I can get any information."

"I will continue to track and investigate. If those demons hiding in the dark continue to carry out their activities, they will definitely leave clues behind."

Xue Yi said this, and after the two sisters finished their conversation, Jackdaw lay down in the coffin beside them, while Xue Yi stared at the closed coffin without blinking.

Watching my sister fall asleep was a habit I had when I was a human.

Even though she no longer knows the meaning of this matter, Xue Yi still remembers that it is a very important matter and something that must be done.

It was late at night, and in the huge room, only a few candles were flickering.

I don’t know how much time had passed, but a tall golden soul-catcher walked in.

"Is there a situation?"

Xue Yi turned around, and the golden soul-catcher lowered his head respectfully.

"The investigation has made some progress. A ghost messenger discovered a base of those monsters. We don't know what's inside yet."

"Notify the underworld officials and military officers on duty to follow me."

After saying this, Xue Yi stood up and left with the golden man. The dim room became completely quiet, with only the huge coffin left.

Not long after, the candlelight was completely extinguished, and then the boundless darkness was like the rising tide, completely swallowing up the coffin.

Chapter 29 I Didn't Lie

A side room in the Ten Kings Division headquarters, this is where Xu Nuo and Jing Liu will temporarily live for the next few days.

The furnishings in the room looked somewhat ordinary. Apart from a bed, there was nothing else particularly eye-catching.

Jing Liu's mental state has returned to normal, and Xu Nuo is sitting next to her with a faint smile on her face.

"You've already been imprisoned, what are you still laughing about?"

"Because Sister Jingliu is by my side, I am laughing with excitement and delight."

Moving a little closer to the woman beside him, Xu Nuo gently held her hand, and then played with her fingertips.

The woman's palms were slightly cool, but not cold. The perfect coolness made people feel comfortable.

Feeling the man's fingers intertwined with his own and tightly clasped together, Jingliu raised his eyebrows, but did not make any reaction.

"Actually, I'm also quite confused. What kind of magic power do I have that could make Sister Jingliu turn against Juou Si for me?"

"You are flattering yourself again. Am I doing this for you? I am only doing this for myself. The Ten Kings Division is indeed handling the case impartially, but that doesn't mean I can accept their attitude. They are putting on shackles and detaining people. Who are they trying to please?"

Jing Liu snorted coldly. The cold and arrogant beauty looked particularly cute in this arrogant look.

Even Xu Nuo himself was a little unsure whether this was the influence of the red medal, or...

The dream never wakes up...

What is the fantasy in Jingliu's mind?

"I thought Sister Jingliu would unconditionally make all sacrifices for the Immortal Boat. After all, what the two judges said was actually true. My identity is indeed very suspicious."

"Sacrifice is for belief, for the right thing. I cleanse the four directions for Xianzhou and purge the undead, in order to protect Xianzhou and its people. I don't want them to settle accounts with their compatriots for unfounded charges, nor do I want them to fight the heroes of Xianzhou with swords because of their destined fate and future."

Jingliu said this with mixed feelings.

Originally, she had indeed made preparations. Once the evil spirit attacked, she would take the initiative to go to the Ten Kings Division and die peacefully.

Because she no longer had anything worth caring about, the long life became boring and torturous to her.

Being able to enter Nirvana peacefully is also a kind of liberation.

But now, in the days of adventure with Yunwu, in these short decades, she seems to have regained her happiness and joy, and found the meaning of life.

A few decades, apparently just a small part of her long life, makes it so difficult for her to let go and forget.

She was trying hard to hold on and resist the influence of the evil spirit.

She felt that her mental state was generally healthy and positive, but Juouji obviously didn't think so.

The judge and the underworld officials were staring at him all the time. They clenched their swords and looked at him with fear and caution, as if they were afraid that they would turn into horrible monsters in the next second.

Yes, those who fall into the devil's shadow, the six dusts are upside down, human relations are lost, and everyone can kill them. This is the fate that the people of the Immortal Boat cannot escape, and it is the greatest curse bestowed on them by the ancestor of longevity, plague and disaster.

But...but I still feel unwilling. I don't want to die like this, I don't want everything in the past to go to waste.

"The hero that Sister Jingliu mentioned, could it be you?"

"It's just me, why can't I do that?"

"But I'm not from Xianzhou. Well, I'm Sister Jingliu's man now, so it doesn't seem to be a problem to be considered a Xianzhou person."

Seeing Xu Nuo smiling happily, Jing Liu folded his hands and corrected the other person's remarks in a bad mood.

"You are at best just a puppy I raise. Anyway, today they made you an Envoy of the Order of Plenty because they suspected you. Next time, they can make any person in the Immortal Boat an Envoy of the Order of Plenty because they suspected you. I only look at the concrete evidence and don't want to hear any hypotheses, suspicions, or speculations. Can such a major event related to the survival of the entire Immortal Boat be described by hypotheses and suspicions? Besides, you can't be an Envoy of the Order of Plenty."

Jing Liu is the person who knows Xu Nuo's physical condition best, so she can be 100% sure that Xu Nuo has never received the blessing from the ancestor of longevity and plague.

I shouldn't be considered an envoy, right? After all, the power that the pharmacist gave me was just a purple badge, and there were two levels on it, gold and red.

Xu Nuo lowered his head to think, and when he looked up, he found Jing Liu's face right in front of him.

"So, you haven't explained to me where you came from, and have you really lost your memory? Are you lying to me?"

As if questioning a wife who was cheating on her husband, Jingliu almost pushed Xu Nuo down on the bed.

The woman's face looked delicate and beautiful, her crimson eyes held a hint of doubt, and her plump red lips were so close that it seemed that Xu Nuo could taste them as long as he raised his head.

However, Xu Nuo knew in his heart that if he really did that, Jing Liu would be able to dodge it easily.

After all, with my weak body, how could I be faster than this Luofu Sword Master?

So he raised his head tentatively, and his lips felt something soft and sweet.

Jing Liu suddenly looked up, and a moment of panic flashed across his face.

"You can't blame me for this. It's because Jingliu-sister suddenly got so close to me."

Xu Nuo blinked innocently, Jing Liu covered his lips with his hand, and then put his hand down naturally.

"What are you talking about? Do you think you can keep up with my speed? But I didn't expect that you little dog is getting bolder and bolder. Why do you want to kiss me?"

Oh, yes, yes, I didn’t kiss you just now.

Seeing Jingliu pretending nothing happened, Xu Nuo suppressed his laughter.

"Is this Kagami-ryu-sister's first kiss?"

"Now I am interrogating you. Answer me, have you ever cheated on me?"

The woman, who seemed a little angry and embarrassed, directly rode on Xu Nuo and once again strangled the man's neck with her hands.

"Being blind or suffering from indirect amnesia is nothing new to me. There is nothing worth mentioning about my origins and past. I once lived on an ordinary planet. My civilization did not even have the ability to leave its home planet, let alone conduct interstellar travel. I have been lying on a hospital bed since I can remember, quietly waiting for death. Perhaps my will to survive attracted the attention of something, perhaps I did receive some blessing, or perhaps that being sent me to the Immortal Boat, but I really don't know what happened in that base. The first thing I saw after I woke up was you. This is the only thing I can assure you of, Sister Jingliu, I did not lie."

Chapter 30 Try harder

Xu Nuo did not lie. It can be said that he basically told everything about himself to the woman in front of him.

Jing Liu did not interrupt the man, but just listened to him quietly. It was the first time she saw the young man in front of her look so serious, which was far from her impression of him being cunning.

This look and posture certainly doesn't seem like he's lying, but what can I say? The calmer he is, the more suspicious he appears.

"So Sister Jingliu doesn't believe me? And can you change the posture? This is a bit uncomfortable."

"It's really hard to believe what comes out of your mouth. But I will stare at you and use my own eyes to confirm whether you are lying to me or not."

Jingliu said this and turned over and got off Xu Nuo, while the latter sat up and rubbed his neck gently.

"What would happen if I lied?"

"Then I will kill you myself."

The cold words made Xu Nuo's hands pause for a moment. He looked at the woman in front of him with a strange expression and didn't react for a while.
