Chapter 440: Suddenly wanting to return to secular life (Seeking collections and subscriptions)

~7 min read 1,251 words

At this very moment,

Bai Yu Jing heard this and couldn't help but smile knowingly.

"There's actually such a thing..."

"I thought this nun's heart was like iron and stone, very hard!"

"It seems that it is the Jianghu that changes a person..."

"But if you think about it carefully, it's not just Li Mochou; isn't it the same for me?"

Like Wuming, Bai Yu Jing now also likes to reflect on life.

It's just that he is the Great Dragon Head of the Qinglong Society; many things, even if he doesn't want to, he has to participate in, unlike Wuming who is free and easy, able to advance and retreat at will.

After all, in the current Zong-Wu world, the Qinglong Society is not yet an existence that absolutely crushes everything,

and the Qinglong Society's opponents are also increasing.

The Jianghu is only so big; many things always require a struggle!

And there are many things he must do himself.

Although the Qinglong Society is powerful, he is the only expert who can be brought out.

If there is no God-realm expert sitting in charge, then the destruction of the Qinglong Society would be an overnight affair.

"It was the Jianghu that turned an innocent young girl into a poisonous woman, into the Red-Lian Fairy!"

"It's truly incredible..."

After finishing, Bai Yu Jing again crossed his arms over his chest.

Then he closed his eyes, as if beginning to think about something.

Meanwhile,

Li Mochou heard this, and a faint smile appeared on her face.

The Mr. Su before her was indeed not simple; every word went straight into Li Mochou's heart.

His words were also full of teasing, making this Red-Lian Fairy, feared by everyone in the Jianghu, suddenly feel a sense of familiarity.

Like an old friend reunited, like an old acquaintance returning home,

suddenly, for some reason, Li Mochou had an urge to stay at the Zuixian Tower.

After all, for her, the Jianghu before her was truly boring, not interesting at all.

For thousands of years, this so-called Jianghu can be summarized in one sentence:

either I seek revenge on you, or you seek revenge on me.

Where there are people, there is Jianghu; where there are interests, there is Jianghu.

As long as one is not dead, one must forever be in this vortex of struggle, endless!

Such a life was interesting and exciting at first,

but now, more than ten years later, Li Mochou was no longer the ignorant young girl she once was.

Regarding everything before her, she felt weary in an instant.

At the very least, she could return to the Ancient Tomb Sect; at least she could find some peace.

For Li Mochou, she used to fear peace the most, escaping the Ancient Tomb Sect with all her might, and in the end, even going so far as to betray the sect.

But now, what Li Mochou wanted most was peace, preferably peace of mind.

And it was very clear that Su Hang's words had awakened the deep longing in this female devil's heart.

This was like a mirror; through this mirror, Li Mochou finally saw her true self.

Thinking of this,

Li Mochou smiled slightly, then looked at Su Hang and said slowly:

"Thanks to Mr. Su's mention, what about the second layer of meaning?"

"How should that be interpreted?"

After speaking, Li Mochou couldn't help but be a bit more respectful toward Su Hang.

After all, after experiencing the previous conversation, Li Mochou was surprised to find that the Mr. Su before her was not just famous for nothing.

On the contrary, he could not only predict the future but even see the secrets deep in her heart.

You must know that these secrets and truths had been hidden deep in her heart, and even she herself didn't know them.

And this Mr. Su, in a light and airy manner, had laid all her worries bare!

After listening and savoring it carefully, she found that what he said was completely correct!

Listening to the whole thing gave one a feeling of being enlightened...

And for Li Mochou, this was not just enlightenment, but a tingling sensation all over her body!

It was precisely because of this that how could she not be respectful toward Mr. Su?

Su Hang smiled gently,

looked at the fairy before him, and continued:

"With the first layer of meaning, guessing the second layer is actually not difficult."

"It's just that in most cases, people dare not face their own hearts."

"Just as the Buddha says, people are lost in the red dust, seeking only outward, and never looking inward."

"If one could calm down, take a good look, and think, then all the secrets in the heart would have nowhere to hide."

Speaking of this, Su Hang paused and continued:

"This second layer of meaning is also not difficult to explain."

"That is, you hope to return to the past and start everything over."

"And the 'Yuan' character you left behind also has the meaning of beginning..."

"You hope to have a chance to choose again!"

Li Mochou heard this, and her heart couldn't help but be shocked again.

Accurate!

It was simply too accurate!

This wasn't fortune-telling; this was like a tapeworm in her stomach!

No, even a tapeworm in her stomach might not necessarily understand her so well...

For a time, Li Mochou admired Su Hang's fortune-telling skills even more!

Truly, prostrating in admiration!

You must know that Li Mochou had been regretting every moment for so many years...

If she had listened to her master back then, how good it would have been,

if she hadn't met that person back then, how good it would have been,

if she hadn't been so impulsive back then, and had thought a few more times before acting, how good it would have been...

But there were no "ifs"; all the facts were right before her eyes, and Li Mochou had no choice.

Even the few memories left in her mind were now stained with the blood of pain.

It could be said that the first half of Li Mochou's life was stained with blood,

and among these bloodstains were those of her opponents, innocent people, and her own.

She was now in her thirties, and these years of roaming the Jianghu had left her exhausted.

She hadn't wanted to become a female devil hated by everyone in the Jianghu, but she was naturally proud and stubborn; whatever people wanted her to do, she wouldn't.

You all say I'm a female devil, right? Fine, then I'll just be a female devil; what can the living beings of this world do to me?

This was Li Mochou's truest thought deep in her heart.

Of course, for Li Mochou, constantly killing people, having her hands stained with blood, and even standing in opposition to the entire Wu Lin, being an enemy of all the heroes in the world—

such a life was clearly not what Li Mochou wanted...

Just as Mr. Su said, if she could do it over, she would rather none of this had happened.

She would still be that senior disciple of the Ancient Tomb Sect, still that ignorant young girl, and the Jianghu that belonged to her would still be peaceful and calm.

Thinking of this, Li Mochou's eyes couldn't help but dim a little more.

She paused and sighed softly:

"What Mr. Su said is exactly what I have in my heart."
