Chapter 436: Bai Yu Jing's guess (Seeking collections and subscriptions)
"Yuan?"
Seeing the character Li Mochou left behind, the crowd was speechless for a moment.
"What does it mean? What is the meaning of leaving this character?"
"This nun is truly something. Why leave a 'Yuan' character? Shouldn't she have written 'Buddha' or 'Dao'?"
"My friend, you are wrong to say that. You must understand that from beginning to end, the Red-Lian Fairy has never been a true renunciant! Her renunciation is just a formality, not a true one. After all, have you ever seen a renunciant who kills the innocent so wantonly?"
"That makes sense... Even if this Li Mochou is a renunciant, she is likely an evil monk or a wicked nun..."
"But going back to the point, what exactly does this 'Yuan' character mean?"
The crowd stared at the character before them,
guessing for a long time without coming to any conclusion.
After all, the one who wrote it was Li Mochou; unless she nodded, no one could guess what she was thinking.
Besides that, there was a reason why the crowd was so enthusiastic about this character.
If it were an ordinary Jianghu figure, even a long-famous hero, the audience would not be this curious.
But because it was Li Mochou, it stirred up almost infinite curiosity in everyone.
Because Li Mochou was no ordinary person.
She was once a righteous person and the senior sister of the Ancient Tomb Sect. Logically, she should have inherited the mantle and carried the sect forward.
But for some unknown reason, this peerless beauty of the Ancient Tomb Sect suddenly went mad, transforming from a righteous senior sister into a demonic overlord.
This transformation made everyone even more curious!
Although discussions about Li Mochou in the Jianghu had never ceased over the years.
Some said she was harassed by Quanzhen Sect Daoists and, unable to bear it, left the Ancient Tomb Sect to seek her own path in the Jianghu.
Others said Li Mochou had an illicit affair with a Quanzhen Sect disciple, and because the affair was exposed, she simply betrayed her sect and ran off to live freely with her lover.
Still others said that Li Mochou joining the Ancient Tomb Sect in the first place was a conspiracy, and once she learned the Wu Gong, she would naturally kick the sect aside.
The last rumor was even more bizarre:
it claimed Li Mochou was pregnant out of wedlock and, to avoid suspicion, had to find a random excuse to leave the Ancient Tomb Sect.
And her lover was a great elder of a certain sect in the Jianghu, a man looked up to by the world!
In short, there was no shortage of rumors about Li Mochou over the years.
All kinds of stories, too many to count.
However, because Li Mochou herself did not care and did not bother to refute them, the rumors grew more numerous and varied.
So much so that for a time, no one knew who to believe.
Li Mochou herself cared even less; she had always had only one attitude toward these rumor-mongers: kill them.
And over the years, the majority of the innocent souls who died under Li Mochou's poison needles fell into this category.
At this very moment,
Xu Fengnian stretched his neck, saw the "Yuan" character before him, and couldn't help but ask Old Huang:
"Old Huang, this sister left such a character, what does it mean?"
Old Huang gave a lecherous smile, then pulled a small gourd from his pocket,
unscrewed the cap, took a fierce gulp of strong liquor, and then said slowly:
"Judging by Old Huang's many years of experience, this fairy is likely asking about the affairs of her youth."
"Still the same saying: in this world, the only thing that can drive a man mad is power!"
"And what drives a woman mad is, ultimately, the word 'love'."
As an old man, Old Huang was well-traveled and knowledgeable; he didn't need to cast lots to roughly see the fate of a martial artist.
Old Huang had seen countless people like Li Mochou along his journey.
These women were, without exception, trapped by love!
Just as the ancients said, when a woman becomes a demon, nine times out of ten, it is because of the word 'love'.
Hearing this, Xu Fengnian frowned and said with disbelief:
"Really, Old Huang?"
"Are you implying that such a beautiful fairy was actually abandoned by a man?"
"Which man was so blind that he would abandon such a fairy sister?"
Old Huang chuckled again, as if he saw through everything.
He patted Xu Fengnian on the shoulder and continued:
"Young Master, no need to rush!"
"We only need to keep watching, and the truth will be revealed!"
Meanwhile,
Wang Yuyan saw this, and a look of surprise couldn't help but appear on her face.
She also hadn't expected that a female devil like Li Mochou, who killed without blinking, would write such a character.
As a doctor of martial arts, although Wang Yuyan had little Jianghu experience, when it came to knowledge of the Jianghu, even Su Hang might not compare to her.
And this Li Mochou before her was a figure who had once turned the entire Jianghu upside down!
Although she was beautiful, her heart was poisonous, and the number of people who died at her hands was countless.
The most shocking thing Li Mochou had ever done was to wipe out an entire manor in Jiangnan!
There had long been rumors in the Jianghu that the entire manor, except for one child, was poisoned to death by Li Mochou.
After the massacre, she simply set a fire and burned the entire manor to the ground.
It was precisely because of this incident that Li Mochou suddenly became a public enemy of the Wu Lin.
Let alone righteous people, even members of the Mo Sect wanted to bring her to justice when they saw her.
It was just that Li Mochou's Wu Gong was truly high, and coupled with her expertise in poison, ordinary Wu Lingaoshou were simply no match for her.
After all, no matter how high your Wu Gong is, you cannot block deadly toxins!
It was precisely because of this that Li Mochou had roamed the Jianghu for many years, always sailing smoothly without obstruction.
Thinking of this, Wang Yuyan said slowly:
"Now Yuyan also cannot guess what the Red-Lian Fairy means by leaving a 'Yuan' character?"
"Could it be that Li Mochou has suddenly repented and wants to return to the origin?"
Speaking of this, Wang Yuyan smiled gently and then shook her head.
"Anyone in this world might repent, except for Li Mochou."
"Otherwise, she wouldn't have killed so many people over all these years."
Hearing this, Jiang Yuyan, who was to the side, said softly:
"I think this nun is just looking for trouble, writing random things!"
"She is just making fun of our Mr. Su..."
