In a hazy state, I felt my body was rigid, unable to move at all. Struggling to sit up, I sensed a heavy weight pressing down on me, making it hard to breathe.
Suddenly, I opened my eyes wide and exhaled deeply, relieved that it wasn't real.
"You’re awake," came the voice of Mosang.
"Where is Silver Moon?" I faintly recalled everything that had happened. The source of Silver Moon's suffering was Mosang! If I could, I would tear him apart right now!
"Weren't you the one who got him out? Why are you asking me?"
"You promised to let everyone go."
"Did I? I don't remember that."
"Mosang, you're asking for death! If you dare to deceive me, I'll make sure we both perish together!"
"Hmph, first see how you get out of this situation, you overconfident junior."
Get out of what? I raised my hand and immediately felt a powerful current surge through my body, pain exploding in my bones! Damn it, Mosang has trapped me?!
"What are you doing?!"
"Of course, I'm here to take your life."
"I promised you I wouldn't go back on my word, but you must ensure everyone's safety."
"Haha, that's not for you to decide. They are probably not much better off than you right now."
Mosang is completely insane, ruthless in his means to achieve his goals! Since that's the case, I can't just play the good person anymore!
“Mirror Flower Fairy Do you remember?”
At that moment, it was as if I had touched Mosang's reverse scale. He charged over and slammed heavily against his own barrier. Fortunately, he had set up the barrier; otherwise, I would have been killed by his excitement long ago.
“How do you know? You can't possibly know! Tell me, who told you?” Mosang snarled, baring his fangs and spinning rapidly in circles.
“You said with my age, how could I know? None of the people around me have lived as long as you.”
“Stop wasting time. You know I can kill you at any moment.”
“Hmph, you can try. I'll make sure you never hear about her again!”
“You, you dare—”
“Then fine, first tell me, where is Bai Li?”
“Do you still care about him? He's fine; you can tell me now!”
“Am I that easy to deceive? You better tell me the truth. Where is Bai Li? I want to see him!”
“How dare you negotiate with me? You're asking for death!”
“Alright then, go ahead and kill me!”
“Ah!” Mosang roared, seemingly infuriated.
“He's dying, dead—are you satisfied now?”
I felt as if I had been struck by lightning. How could this be possible!
“Tell me, why is he going to die?”
"Tell me where the Mirror Flower Fairy is!"
"Mosang, you have no right to negotiate with me!" I refused to back down. I could no longer trust anything Mosang said.
We glared at each other, neither willing to concede. Yes, I was gambling; if I won, everyone would be saved. If I lost, Mosang would regret it for life. No matter how it turned out, I wouldn't be the one at a disadvantage, so I was determined not to give in!
"Fine, I admit defeat!" Mosang lowered his head, and I could sense a sigh of relief from him. It seemed that Flower Tears was very important to him.
"Bring Bai Li to me!"
Mosang shot me an unwilling glare before turning to leave. Moments later, his tail wrapped around a white figure and placed it in front of me.
Bai Li lay weakly on the ground, eyes tightly shut. We were not close, and I couldn't feel his life force at all.
"Let go of me."
"Xi Meng, don't push your luck."
"Let go of me!"
"Alright, you're ruthless. Just wait!"
I felt the barrier around us open up as I rushed toward Bai Li. No matter how much I shook him, there was no response!
"Mosang, please tell me what happened to him, and I'll tell you about the Mirror Flower Fairy." I didn't know why, but it felt like Bai Li was about to die, and my heart raced with panic.
Mosang no longer pressed me, sneering as he said, "Do you think you can leave so easily after what happened last time?"
"So what?"
"This fool believed you wouldn't leave. Unfortunately for him, you did. He still believed you'd come back, but you didn't. Hmph! What do you think I am? If Bai Li hadn't agreed to break our bond, do you think I'd let you go so easily?"
"The mark is not supposed to be touched, unless—"
"It can be. If the marked Host is willing to give up their life, the Sealer can regain their freedom."
...I feel like I've really heard a joke, one that's so ridiculous.
"Why?"
"How would I know? You should ask him yourself."
"Will he wake up?"
"If the mark is not completely lifted, he will wake up. But he won't last long." Mosang's voice seemed to carry a hint of sadness.
"Mirror Flower Fairy is still alive. Our group split into two, and you should know the other group; the only woman among them is the reincarnation of Mirror Flower Fairy. As for what happened, you can go ask them."
After hearing this, Mosang instantly disappeared.
I picked up Bai Li and gently placed him on my lap, looking at this boy who seemed to be in a deep sleep, his face so clean, reminding me of the trust he once had in me.
Why is he so foolish?
