Mo Li didn't care about the Immortal Mother's vigilance at all. He glanced coldly at the Living Soil and walked away. 1357924?
His steps were very, very slow. The corners of his clothes fluttered in the wind. His aura was stern and cold, causing people to be intimidated.
If he hadn't killed He Jiang and wanted the Living Soil, the Immortal Mother wouldn't have been willing to be his enemy.
No one knew better than her how terrifying Mo Li was.
But now, Mo Li was forcing her. If she backed down, it would be an insult to her dignity. When there was no way out, she could only fight back.
But now, she really had no other choice.
Even though Mo Li only gave her a view of his back, she didn't dare to make a move.
He knew that if he couldn't kill her in one strike, there would be endless trouble.
And she didn't have the confidence, so she could only go back and think of a way.
The Living Soil watched as Mo Li walked further and further away. Its hands were clenched into fists by its sides. When it thought of Jiujiu still in Mo Li's hands, a sense of powerlessness and defeat surged into its heart again.
The Living Soil clenched its hands on the ground. When it grabbed a handful of soil, it suddenly let go. The Living Soil looked defeated and dispirited. For the first time, it hated its uselessness.
The Immortal Mother looked at the Living Soil and frowned slightly. She lowered her eyes and returned to the Immortal World with the Living Soil.
Although Mo Li was from the Primordial Era like her and had been by her side to help her from the very beginning, she didn't see Mo Li's bottom line clearly.
Whether it was facing the Exalted Immortals or her, Mo Li was always cold and indifferent. He blocked their attacks with a cold expression and easily dispelled them. Then, he floated away.
Because he had been too cold and aloof before, as if he was unmoved by anything, the Celestial Mother would never have thought that Mo Li would have thoughts of betraying the Celestial World.
She thought of how Mo Li repeatedly asked the Living Soil to break the contract with Jiujiu. Mo Li seemed cold and distant, but he was very scheming and never did anything useless.
Even she didn't know that Mo Li could speak.
A glint flashed across the Immortal Mother's eyes as she went straight to the point. "What's the relationship between Mo Li and Jiujiu?"
"It's nothing. He was the one who kidnapped Jiujiu."
"Is that so?" Immortal Mother said with a cold expression: "Why did I hear that Jiujiu often went to find Mo Li before?"
The Immortal Mother tilted her head and said to the immortal servant standing at the side, "Go and call Jiuniang over."
Since the Living Soil was unwilling to tell him, he would have to find Jiuniang.
Jiuniang was Jiujiu's mother, so she naturally knew the details. She wanted to see if Jiuniang would tell her or not.
If Jiujiu was really important to Mo Li, then she would use Jiujiu to kill Mo Li.
As long as Mo Li wasn't eliminated, she wouldn't be able to eat or sleep in peace, not to mention that he wanted the Living Soil.
Hearing that the Immortal Mother wanted to find Jiuniang, the Living Soil asked instinctively, "Mother, why are you looking for Jiuniang?"
The Immortal Mother glanced at the Living Soil and said coldly, "Mo Li betrayed the Immortal Realm. Can't you tell what's more important?"
At this moment, the Immortal Mother was no longer gentle and kind in front of outsiders. Her eyes were cold and heartless.
The corner of the Living Soil's mouth twitched. He wanted to say that Jiujiu was innocent, but in the end, he couldn't say it.
Mo Li betrayed the Immortal Realm and took away Jiujiu with him. He even wanted to kill him to break his contract with Jiujiu. No one would believe that he had nothing to do with Jiujiu.
But because of this, the Living Soil's heart instantly sank.
The Immortal Mother's image to outsiders had always been gentle and kind. But to be able to climb to the ruling class and rule the Immortal Realm as a woman, how could she not have the means and temperament?
The Immortal Mother's kindness was only on the surface. She was cold and heartless. If the Living Soil wasn't her son, she would have killed him and reconciled with Mo Li.
The Living Soil understood the Immortal Mother. But because he understood her, his heart sank.
It had only been a few days since the Living Soil descended to the mortal realm, but Jiuniang's hair was already full of white hair. Coupled with her youthful face, she looked indescribably strange.
When she saw the Immortal Mother, she bent over and knelt on the ground.
The Immortal Mother bent over and helped the kneeling Jiuniang up. She said gently, "Jiuniang, I've let you down."
The Immortal Mother looked at Jiuniang with a face full of regret and hatred. Her eyelids trembled, and a trace of tears appeared in her eyes. "Mo Li condemned the Immortal Realm and took Jiujiu away."
Just as the Immortal Mother finished speaking, Jiuniang's body, which was on the brink of death, trembled. Her originally delicate skin seemed to have aged, and in the blink of an eye, it was covered with wrinkles. Her body swayed, and she sat on the ground. Her dim yellow eyes moved around in their sockets, and she said in a hoarse voice, "Immortal Mother, what did you say?"
The Immortal Mother said in a sorrowful tone, "I've let you down. I didn't protect Jiujiu well, and let Mo Li take Jiujiu away. Mo Li has always been ruthless. I'm afraid that Jiujiu, she …"
The Immortal Mother's voice was almost choked with sobs.
How could Jiuniang not have heard of Mo Li's name? But because she had, her heart sank.
Seeing that the grief on Jiuniang's face did not seem to be fake, the Immortal Mother lowered her eyes and said, "Jiuniang, I've let you down. I didn't protect Jiujiu well."
"No …" Jiuniang suppressed the grief in her heart and raised her head. Her dim eyes glistened with tears. She lowered her eyelids, and two large teardrops rolled down her cheeks and hit the ground, making a splashing sound.
Jiuniang lowered her eyes to hide the grief in her eyes. "It's my bad luck. However, I don't know where Jiujiu went missing. I hope the Immortal Mother can tell me."
After getting the answer she wanted, the Immortal Mother revealed a satisfied smile. She softly told Jiuniang where Jiujiu went missing, and then turned to leave.
The Living Soil followed behind the Immortal Mother. Seeing Jiuniang almost stumbling away, a trace of pity flashed across its eyes. "Mother, why did you tell Jiuniang this? If, if Jiujiu is fine and knows that Jiuniang is worried about this matter, she will … "
"She's just a spiritual woman. To put it nicely, she's an immortal woman. To put it bluntly, she's just a beast. Do I still need to give an explanation to a beast?"
The Celestial Mother sneered and glanced at the Soil of Breath with a cold expression. "I let you experience the trial of love. From today onwards, you can reflect on your mistakes in seclusion at the Cliff of Reflection."
The Living Soil: "…"
At this moment.
Jiujiu only felt a burning pain in her heart, as if there were thousands of knives stabbing her chest. Thinking of the last scene before she fainted, Jiujiu struggled to open her eyes and subconsciously called out, "Yan Xi."
Hearing Jiujiu call out Jiujiu's name, Mo Li, who had been sitting at the side quietly watching Jiujiu, frowned slightly. After a while, he said, "You're awake."
