Chapter 10: Reminiscences
Looking at the 'Yimu Fanshan' in Zilong's hand, Mu Yiqiong's body shook violently, turned around, faced Zilong, looked at Zilong with a look of disbelief, and said tremblingly: "You, this, where did you get it? Why did it appear in your hands, didn't you say that you are not from the Yimu clan at all?"
"Senior, I didn't lie to you, I am indeed not from the Otogi clan, you should know what this 'Otogi Fanshan' does, I hope you don't regard us as enemies, let's sit down calmly and have a good chat.
Mu Yiqiong looked at the 'Yimu Fanshan' in Zilong's hand, then looked at Zilong's expression, and said: "Since you can call its name, then I believe that it was not obtained by you by special means, then okay, for the sake of the face of 'Yimu Fanshan', I will talk to you, but, what do you want to talk about?"
"Senior, don't you want to invite us in and sit down?" Zilong smiled slightly, and continued to Mu Yiqiong, since Mu Yiqiong no longer has the psychology of rejection, then everything is easy to say, if you knew that it was so easy, you should have taken out this 'Yimu Fanshan' earlier, and it would not have taken so much effort.
Hearing Zilong say that he wanted to go in and sit down, Mu Yiqiong's face suddenly showed a look of embarrassment, however, he looked at Zilong and checked the 'Yimu Fanshan' in his hand again, Mu Yiqiong still nodded, and then, without saying anything, he took the lead and walked inside, and Zilong followed with Tiger. It's just that after entering through the crack in the tree separated by the green pine, the pitch-black environment inside made Zilong still a little uncomfortable, he couldn't help but mobilize the Yuan Spirit, and moved it to his eyes, and suddenly, Zilong's eyes were full of golden light, and the surrounding scenery was in full view.
Surrounded by green pines, there is no sunlight, there is still grass all over the ground, flowers are in full bloom, and the strong fragrance of flowers and plants constantly stimulates Zilong and Tiger's sense of smell. In the very center of the entire space, a large tree stands tall in the sky, as thick as a coiling dragon, and its height is not high. It seems that Mu Yiqiong still misses the life of the City of Life very much, otherwise, he would not be able to use this big tree as a base to build a miniature version of the City of Life.
With Mu Yiqiong entering this miniature version of the City of Life, Zilong appeared, not only its appearance is similar to the giant tree of the Yimu clan, but even its internal facilities are exactly the same, of course, there is only Mu Yiqiong here, so the construction of facilities is relatively small.
Standing on the green rattan ladder with Tiger, Zilong followed Mu Yiqiong up to the tenth floor, although there was no sunlight outside the miniature version of the City of Life was pitch black, but there was no light inside, even if there was no sunlight, the inside was bright, so after entering the inside of the tree, Zilong took away the Yuan Spirit in his eyes.
It may be the nostalgia for the City of Life, or perhaps, it is the loneliness of being alone, even if Mu Yiqiong lives here, he has renovated all the floors, and the tenth floor is even more comparable to the head of the Mu Yi family, Mu Yiyan's few rooms, and even some details are completely similar, which has to make Zilong think of something.
On the rattan ladder, Zilong looked up, as if there was an inexplicable feeling welling up in his heart, he didn't know what kind of feeling it was, but when he looked up, he only felt that a layer of blood-red mist seemed to appear in his eyes, but this feeling was fleeting, so Zilong didn't care.
Although Mu Yiqiong was not very welcoming to Zilong and Tiger, out of the courtesy of the host, he still gave up for Zilong and poured another cup of herbal tea. As a wood essence master, Mu Yiqiong can't make a fire at all, and he can only brew tea with cold water. However, when Zilong tasted a sip of herbal tea, a refreshing feeling gushed out of his abdomen, flowing all over his body, his spirit couldn't help but be shocked, holding the elegantly made wooden teacup and taking a few sips, before quietly putting the teacup on the wooden table in front of him.
"Although you are holding the 'Otogi Fansugi', there are many things I don't understand, so I won't give you any respect, but as long as you use the 'Otogi Fansugi', I will still obey you. Sit, sit, tea, now, what do you want to talk about? Mu Yiqiong said unceremoniously to Zilong.
"Senior, I just wanted to ask you, why do you have any resistance to the Yimu Clan?" Zilong looked at Mu Yiqiong's face and asked.
"This doesn't seem to have anything to do with you...... Mu Yiqiong's face was cold, obviously he didn't want to answer Zilong's question, but he watched Zilong fiddling with 'Yimu Fanshan' intentionally or unintentionally, he couldn't help but sigh helplessly, and then said: "Actually, there is nothing to hide, even if I don't tell you, if you ask other clansmen, they will say it." ”
Immediately, Mu Yiqiong slowly told the story that he had buried in his heart for six thousand years but had never forgotten......
It was a story from six thousand years ago, at that time, Mu Yiqiong was just a hundred years old young man, with the longevity of the Yimu clan for a thousand years, he was still a child, and it stands to reason that a hundred years of experience is enough for a person to grow up. However, the closed state of the City of Life makes every person of the Otogi tribe, even if they are 100 years old, not know how to care about human affairs, and because of this, every 100-year-old member of the Otogi tribe has to be born and experienced.
When Mu Yiqiong was 100 years old, his life changed, and at that time, his strength had reached the level of the second emperor, and he was recognized as the most talented person in the Yimu clan, and he was also the most powerful person to inherit the clan and the people, so the experience given to him in the clan would be longer.
A hundred-year-old young man who had just come out of the closed world came to the world of flowers and flowers, and many new things attracted him deeply, but because he didn't know anything about everything in the world, Mu Yiqiong suffered a lot, and the rules of the clan that he couldn't use the wood essence control technique also made him only able to swallow his anger. Mu Yiqiong is not constantly growing up in such an environment, and after a year, he understands all the dangers in the world, and also understands that for those who do evil, he will take action when he should act, even if it is a violation of the rules in the clan.
That is, in the second year of his life, a fairy-like girl attracted him, a hundred virgins, not only him, but also on the entire Xiangyun Da 6, the appearance of this woman caused no less than an earthquake-like commotion, and because of this, he had to face countless love enemies.
However, all this was nothing but wishful thinking on the part of these infatuated men, and the beautiful woman had not stayed anywhere for a day, and her figure was like a ghost, appearing here today, and perhaps arriving thousands of miles away tomorrow. Although I don't know why, no one investigates it, because her beauty is enough to make the world forget everything.
However, I don't know why, Mu Yiqiong was favored by the fairy, and in an unintentional encounter, there was a spark of affection between the two, and, to an unimaginable degree, they married in private. However, the two sides never asked each other about their origins, and even, their understanding of each other was limited to one name.
Despite this, their married life is quite happy, at least, the two have never quarreled, and they have not even been angry, but the beauty of the woman has made Mu Yiqiong constantly accept challenges from all sides, of course, with his strength at the second emperor level at that time, he could not find his opponent at all on the big 6.
A year later, the woman gave birth to a white and chubby boy for Mu Yiqiong, which made Mu Yiqiong so happy that he didn't rest for a few days and nights, just stayed in front of the woman's bed, gazing at her face with a slightly tired look gently, carefully taking care of her child, the crystallization of the happiness of the two people.
Mu Yiqiong thought that his life would continue to live happily like this, and even, he never thought of returning to the City of Life and returning to the Yimu clan, but often good things do not have a happy result, and Mu Yiqiong's thoughts are the same.
One day, when Mu Yiqiong was changing his child's diaper, a playmate from his childhood found him, and the scene that should have been very happy to see each other ended hastily after Mu Yiqiong saw the sad expression of his people.
His friend brought him extremely bad news, the patriarch asked him to return to the clan to prepare for the succession of the patriarch, and there were other things waiting for him to discuss after he returned, which was good news, but Mu Yiqiong knew that as the patriarch, he could not marry a foreign woman, so if he wanted to go back, he could not bring his wife at all, the woman who had lived with him for a year.
At that time, Mu Yiqiong was extremely reluctant, but he unexpectedly saw that the woman he loved so much suddenly disappeared, she disappeared inexplicably, and did not even leave any information, Mu Yiqiong only felt like a dream. The bits and pieces of life in this year continue to emerge in my mind, is all this just a dream?
This world is so unreal, it makes Mu Yiqiong feel painful, he is just in the place where he has lived for a year, waiting bitterly, waiting for his wife to return to him one day. As a result, his children were left unattended, and in the end, his friends felt that the child was pitiful, and moreover, it was still Mu Yiqiong's flesh and blood, so he brought his child back to the Yimu clan.
For five years, Mu Yiqiong waited from sunrise to sunset every day, and from nightfall to dawn, but for five years, he did not wait for any news from his wife, and in these five years, even if the patriarch of the Yimu clan came in person, Mu Yiqiong never changed his determination to wait for his wife to return.
However, the disappointment again and again almost made Mu Yiqiong feel desperate, and finally, he understood that he could no longer wait for the rabbit like this, if he wanted to find his wife, it was better to find the entire Xiangyun Da 6, although it was a little difficult, but nothing could change Mu Yiqiong's decision, even if at that time, his father's consolation and the treasure of the Otogi clan's 'Otomu Fanshan' could not.
In the Xiangyun Great 6, Mu Yiqiong walked for five years, he did not let go of every city, did not ignore every corner of the city, he used his powerful sub-emperor-level divine sense to constantly search, carefully probe, but, five years later, his spiritual power exploded to the sub-saint level, but there was still no trace of his wife.
She seemed to disappear into thin air on the auspicious cloud 6, until this time, Mu Yiqiong appeared, from beginning to end, they did not ask each other's origin, he felt regret because of this, if he knew where she came from, perhaps, Mu Yiqiong would not have found it so hard
Until the sixth year, the emperor lived up to his wishes, in a city of the Xiangyun Great 6 Western Continent Empire, Mu Yiqiong finally found a wife who had married someone else, the powerful sub-saint-level divine sense sensed everything about his wife, and the happy expression of her living with her current husband seemed to be like sharp thorns, fiercely piercing Mu Yiqiong's heart. It turned out that the feeling of distress was so unbearable.
When Mu Yiqiong appeared in front of the still beautiful woman, her surprised expression seemed to be like eating a fly, and after a long time, she only said one sentence: "How did you find here, from your house to here, almost across the entire big 6, don't you want your child?"
"My child, wasn't he born to you? How can you be so patient to leave us and walk away, and then start a family here and live so happily with another man? Where is your conscience?" Mu Yiqiong almost roared and shouted to the ruthless woman, the heart-rending voice echoed for a long time under the entire sky, and the listener was sad and shed tears when he heard it.
However, in exchange for it, the woman smiled coldly, and she said to Mu Yiqiong in an almost presumptuous voice: "Hmph, do you really think that I am with you because I love you? Don't be delusional, there is no man in the world who deserves my love, because you are not worthy." ”
"Why? Then why are you still with me, why do you have to give birth to a child for me, why do you give me hope of happiness, and kill my hope mercilessly with your own hands, tell me, why?" Mu Yiqiong clenched his fist fiercely, and the force was so great that he almost pierced the white bone through the skin.
"Hmph, why? Because I need your energy, because your strength is passable, as long as I combine with you and have crystallization, my strength can be improved, any man on this big 6 is just a tool for me to improve my strength, that's the reason, are you satisfied?" The woman's originally beautiful face was so hideous in Mu Yiqiong's eyes at the moment, and even his heart couldn't bear such a change.
"It's that simple, is that all?" Mu Yiqiong still couldn't believe all this, and asked without giving up.
"Yes, it's that simple, you go quickly, I don't want my current husband to see you, I didn't kill you, you should be glad, so, don't let me see you in the future." The woman waved her hand impatiently, as if to drive away mosquitoes, and said to Mu Yiqiong.
"You...... It's so ruthless......" Mu Yiqiong's eyes were red, he gritted his teeth fiercely, he looked like a beast that had been cornered, exuding a strong violent aura, and at the same time, the murderous aura that made people shudder filled the space within a hundred meters of Mu Yiqiong's body, and he had already made up his mind to kill this woman who abandoned her husband and children.
Mu Yiqiong's right hand moved, and countless green vines continued to pour out from the ground, heading straight for the woman, however, at that time, Mu Yiqiong's understanding and control of wood essence was not at all one percent of the current control power, and in the days when they lived together in the past, Mu Yiqiong often accepted challenges from others. Therefore, the woman knew his strength and moves very well, and she didn't care about his attacks at all.
I saw her figure flash, dodging between countless green vines, so fast that she almost turned into an afterimage, and came to Mu Yiqiong's body in the middle of a kill, quickly stretched out her right hand, and stuck Mu Yiqiong's neck tightly, and her eyes of contempt continued to drift towards Mu Yiqiong, and the voice of disdain came out of her mouth.
"Don't think that strong energy can represent everything, sometimes, skills are much more useful than energy, I won't kill you, in that case, it's really boring, you are the first person I have come to the door in these thousands of years, hehe, you are very interesting, cultivate hard, work hard to improve your strength, I am waiting for one day you will come and kill me." ”
Desperate, powerless, hateful, Mu Yiqiong has never hated himself so much, he never knew that his wife, who had lived with him for a year, would have such strength, and he never thought that this woman went in and out of the big 6 places, just to combine with men to improve her strength, such a lowly woman, she even lived with her for a year, and moreover, she would give birth to a child.
What hit Mu Yiqiong the most was that he didn't have the strength to kill this woman with his own hands, he was not this woman's opponent at all, he was unwilling, unwilling to let this woman go like this, unwilling to let go of this woman like this, unwilling to let his unforgettable feelings go down the drain like this. He had never had been so eager to have great power, never had he had such a strong desire to kill someone.
Therefore, he can't die now, no matter what, he must break this woman into pieces in this life, so when the woman choked his throat, he didn't resist, and even, without a word, just stared at the woman coldly, looking at her face that had changed into a very hideous in his mind. Although, this face can make countless people crazy, even if more than ten years have passed, however, this woman doesn't seem to care about time at all.
Looking at Mu Yiqiong, who was sneering at her, the woman let him go as soon as she shook her hand, and said with a sneer: "Don't let me down, if we meet again next time, I will definitely not leave my subordinates, so you have to work hard to improve your strength, otherwise, it won't be fun, hum ......"
Looking at the back of the woman leaving, Mu Yiqiong had a feeling of wanting to cry without tears, but he secretly swore in his heart that no matter what happened in this life, he must kill this woman with his own hands and never die. At the same time, he felt frustrated that he had violated the rules of the Otogi clan, and he disobeyed the wishes of the 'Otogi Fansugi' and could not become a member of the Otogi clan at all, so he felt that he had no face to return to the Otogi clan.
In this way, Mu Yiqiong began to wander on the big 6, constantly cultivating the Wood Essence Control Technique, but, no matter what, the Wood Essence Control Technique could not be improved in a short period of time, although he had already reached the level of the second emperor level at the age of 100, but it was even more difficult to break through this realm than to ascend to the sky.
It was at this moment that Mu Yiqiong suddenly recalled what the woman had said, 'Don't think that strong energy can represent everything, sometimes, skills are much more useful than energy. Since your strength can't be improved, why don't you try to practice your skills, thinking of this, Mu Yiqiong decided to end his wandering career, find a quiet and uninhabited place, and practice the skills of the Wood Essence Control Technique.
However, just as he was making this decision, the patriarch of the Otogi clan found him again, hoping that he would change his mind and return to the Otogi clan, and no longer hold him accountable for going against the wishes of the 'Otogi Fansugi'. This was great news for Mu Yiqiong, but Mu Yiqiong couldn't forgive himself at all, so he didn't go back with Patriarch Yimu.
From then on, Mu Yiqiong began to hide from the people of the Yimu clan, until he came to the ten thousand mountains in the south, found this quiet and uninhabited place, and began to practice his own wood essence control technique, just like that, in this uninhabited area, thousands of years have passed.
He hadn't even seen his own child again, and in countless lonely nights, he had also looked up at the starry sky and missed his child he had never met, but the hideous smiling face of that woman appeared in his heart all the time, prompting him to stop thinking about other things, and concentrate on cultivation, hoping to kill that woman with his own hands one day earlier.
Tens of thousands of days and nights, Mu Yiqiong kept urging himself, constantly warning himself, he must not give up, do not forget the oath he secretly made, because of this, in the past thousands of years, although his strength has only been improved to the emperor level, but the skill of the Wood Essence Control Technique has been cultivated by him to be extremely pure, and he is confident that no Yimu Clan can reach the skill level of his Wood Essence Control Element.
Despite this, Mu Yiqiong still did not walk out of these ten thousand mountains, because he knew that his strength was improving, and that woman would definitely not stop, so if he had to reach a level that could satisfy him, he would walk out of here, out of the mountains, find that woman, and then, complete his dream for thousands of years.
After saying this, Mu Yiqiong looked at Zilong with some dim eyes, and then looked at the 'Yimu Fanshan' in Zilong's hand, and said frankly: "If it weren't for the fact that I still regard myself as a member of the Yimu clan, if it weren't for the fact that I didn't want to go against the wishes of the 'Yimu Fanshan' for the second time, I wouldn't have told you ......this at all."
