Chu MuYun raised his brows and his heart thumped.
The memory mirror is really a cheating device. It seemed that he was completely exposed by Mo JiuShao.
Shen ShuiYan suddenly got up and his wide sleeves fell to the ground layer by layer. It was originally soft and gentle but, because of the sharpness between it’s master’s eyebrows, a trace of a murderous aura burst out.
“Get out!”
His voice was cold and the anger in it was undisguised. If you looked closely, you could almost see the blue veins protruding on his white forehead.
The servers immediately backed away quietly. Chu MuYun was among them and, although he wanted to hear more, the situation wasn’t one where anyone could stay so he had to lower his eyebrows and follow the others.
The huge hall was instantly empty.
The boy beside Mo JiuShao who resembled ‘Chu MuYun’ also went out.
Shen ShuiYan raised his hand and opened a barrier, which could be regarded as isolating all the idlers and other would-be eavesdroppers.
Mo JiuShao’s expression was light and he slowly shook the cloud tea in his hand.
Shen ShuiYan stared at him and said, “They are the same person, there is nothing to doubt about it.”
Mo JiuShao put down the teacup and finally looked up at him: “But since when did they start to be the same person?”
Shen ShuiYan squinted. Then he opened his eyes and looked at Mo JiuShao.
Mo JiuShao’s expression remained unchanged.
After a long while, Shen ShuiYan chuckled lightly, and the corners of his raised mouth were full of sarcasm: “What? Are you feeling unwilling to believe it now? Do you think Ah-Yun truly likes you?”
Shen ShuiYan approached Mo JiuShao and looked at him condescendingly. “Think about what you did back then, provoking Xie QianLan and me, teasing Ah-Yun again and again, and finally teaching him the tricks. Ah-Yun has been hurt by you all his life. Not only does he hate you, he wants you to live a life worse than death! With such a mood, he died and was resurrected again. Don’t you think he will want revenge if he encounters you again?”
Mo JiuShao’s eyes sank.
Shen ShuiYan said with a smile: “I have also seen the clips in the mirror. Ah-Yun has been acting since he was adopted by you. He pretends to be innocent and harmless to your face, but didn’t you also see how he was when you had your back turned? So why are you bringing up these old things now?”
“As for Ling Xuan…” A deep dark color flashed in Shen Shiyan’s eyes, but the tone was equally contemptuous, “That mad dog knows nothing and just bites people everywhere. Sio what? Ah-Yun is just using him to mock you.”
Mo JiuShao raised his head abruptly, looking at ShuiYan Shen with a hint of coldness in his eyes: “What are you hiding from me?”
Shen ShuiYan turned to look at him : “Is it like you tell me everything?”
The two looked at each other, like two needles facing each other, their thoughts were deeply hidden, trying to extract more from each other, but they were unwilling to share their own unique secrets.
This cooperation, from the very beginning, was not at all candid. It was just because they both knew the secret that ‘Chu MuYun and Shen Yun are one person’ and reluctantly cooperated, in order to use the things in the hands of the other party to explore and find out more truths and then hopefully find that person.
But…they were unwilling to give in.
Because there is only one Chu MuYun in the end, and they all want to monopolize him,
With this deep-seated conflict, it’s impossible for them to be truly honest with each other.
Shen ShuiYan and Mo JiuShao broke up unhappily, and a confrontation was fruitless.
***
Since Yan Chen’s life went off the rails and Chu MuYun disappeared for no reason, Mo JiuShao used the memory mirror to look at every detail on QianLuan Peak.
He knew that he had been tricked, that he had been tricked from beginning to end.
Whether it was Chu MuYun or the ice spirit beast, he was toyed with and played by him, and in the end, like a fool, he promised to be with him for the rest of his life.
But Mo JiuShao couldn’t figure out why Chu MuYun treated him like this. Was it because he had annihilated his clan? Impossible, Chu MuYun didn’t know this at first but he had been acting since the first day they met.
Besides…that’s not what a ten-year-old should be behaving like.
Mo JiuShao couldn’t understand until Shen ShuiYan found him and told him that Shen Yun’s original appearance was very similar to Chu MuYun.
This memory is unique to Shen ShuiYan, because in the ten years in the human world, only Shen ShuiYan has seen the real Shen Yun.
Mo JiuShao woke up suddenly and finally put everything together.
Chu MuYun was Shen Yun. He woke up in the body of a young boy three thousand years later, and when he saw Mo JiuShao, he recalled the old hatred from the past and felt resentful, so he acted in a play, playing him expertly and deceiving him. Tricking him to the point of nearly dying together with him.
After knowing the truth, Mo JiuShao was furious. How much love he gave turned into how much hatred he had. Shen ShuiYan wants to find Shen Yun, he wants to find him too, he wants to make him pay the price he deserves!
The two cooperated, groping for the laws behind Chu MuYun’s resurrections, trying their best to find a suitable body, and then closely observing and testing.
But soon, Mo JiuShao, who had calmed down, discovered something was wrong.
After all, is Shen Yun Chu MuYun, or is Chu MuYun Shen Yun?
Shen ShuiYan sent Mo JiuShao away, sat in the empty hall and waited for half an hour before slowly getting up.
He walked to the secluded yard alone, entered the house, pressed the button and walked into the ice room hidden deep in the ground with quiet and somewhat lonely steps.
There slept a man who did not want to wake up.
ShuiYan Shen sat beside the bed, picked up his hand, and put it on his cheek affectionately.
There was an undisguised dependence and obsession on his face, and his voice was not as strong and cold as it had been outside the room. He lowered his voice and gently brushed it like a spring night breeze. It trembled.
“Ah-Yun… Who are you thinking about?”
“Is it Ling Xuan? Or Yan Chen?”
He greedily rubbed his palm, which was so cold that it had no warmth and sighed softly.
Today Mo JiuShao came over, and Shen ShuiYan knew that he couldn’t hide it from him for too long.
Whether Shen Yun is Chu MuYun or Chu MuYun is Shen Yun, no one knows better than him.
Because he opened the Gate of Life, he saw such a young Ah-Yun who was still an ice spirit beast.
It’s a pity that it was a man who was emotionally wounded and full of despair.
At that time, ShuiYan didn’t know what happened to him. He just wanted to bring him back, snatch him back, monopolize him, own him and not let anyone look at him.
Perhaps because of this exaggerated obsession, he took Chu MuYun four thousand years later.
After that… there was his Shen Yun.
In the end who is who, Shen ShuiYan is very clear. But he couldn’t let Mo JiuShao know this, absolutely not.
He needed Mo JiuShao because Mo JiuShao had a way to identify which one was the real Chu MuYun.
But that man was too cunning and refused to reveal his secrets, and the trump card used by Shen ShuiYan to control him was not enough.
Maybe it’s time to let Mo JiuShao know… Shen Yun is Ling Mu.
In this way, he will again believe that he has been deceived.
After all, Chu MuYun was so concerned about Ling Xuan.
Shen ShuiYan thought quietly, and suddenly his mind moved, and the whole person stood up.
Ah-Yun was back and he was in the WuQing Palace right now!
