When Bai Zhi said this, what she was actually thinking was, you’re so reckless, charging in without even knowing what kind of formation it is. Really, how foolish can you be.
"Stop trying to sow discord. Lady Yue wouldn’t harm ."
The Demon King spoke confidently. Bai Zhi looked on, seeing him moving forward without turning back from the South Wall.
Let him be then.
As ti ticked away, Bai Zhi leisurely sat at the side, holding a cellphone in her hand.
As if everything happening here had nothing to do with her, whereas it clearly did.
The Demon King and Bai Wei along with the Empress Dowager, their expressions grew increasingly pained as the fiery blaze began.
"How could it be..."
The Demon King said in disbelief, wondering why he too was in such pain.
Bai Zhi’s gaze shifted beyond the barrier, where Lady Yue and Li Mu stood outside.
They were dressed impeccably, as if rely spectating.
Lady Yue wore a blank expression, but Li Mu was different.
He struggled, looking inside at his mother, grandmother, and Bai Zhi. Naturally, he couldn’t let everyone down, right?
"Bai Zhi, why are you here?" He was puzzled. How is she everywhere?
If Bai Fei knew Bai Zhi died here, wouldn’t that an they could never be together in this lifeti?
Actually, for humans, this pressure may not exist. But it does, just imperceptibly smaller.
"Is it so strange that I’m here?" Bai Zhi’s lips curled into a sarcastic smile. "Because of your sudden disappearance, my cousin asked to co with her to find you because she’s worried sothing might happen to you.
But then again. Did you know from the start it was a trap when you were captured?"
Li Mu fell silent. Yes, being captured was a deceit from the start.
It’s a classic tale of the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind, and everything happening here is incredibly mystifying.
"Indeed." Li Mu admitted, looking at Bai Zhi with a hint of a wry smile on his lips. "I wasn’t actually missing. It was because of certain reasons, so I hid away.
I didn’t expect Feifei to suddenly co with you to find . Don’t worry, I’ll go ask what exactly is going on."
Even as he spoke, the formation had already begun operating, aning nothing could be halted anymore. Bai Zhi would certainly perish; explaining this to Bai Fei was a problem.
Seeing Li Mu’s conflicted expression, Bai Zhi spoke up directly.
"Since I’m going to die, could you at least let understand what’s really happening."
Li Mu hesitated a bit; today’s series of events was indeed a culmination of ti, place, and people working perfectly together.
Missing any one elent and it wouldn’t have worked.
"I’m about to die, what are you afraid of? And this is your father, wouldn’t you let him die knowing the truth?"
Bai Zhi pointed at the Demon King, who at that mont was enduring pain, tearily looking at Li Mu.
"Mumu, what’s really going on?"
Why is it different from what they said?
Back then didn’t they agree to put an end to all this thoroughly, so what’s happening now?
"I..." Li Mu hesitated, unsure how to begin. "I don’t know how to say it."
It’s not that Li Mu was unwilling, just that he didn’t know how to start.
"Then let ask. Starting from your disappearance."
Li Mu’s disappearance was where it all began.
"I wasn’t missing."
Li Mu shook his head. "Back then, my mom told , if she agreed to let be with Bai Fei, I must do sothing for her.
I thought no matter what happened, I was determined to be with Bai Fei, so I agreed to it."
Back then Li Mu agreed very quickly, taking a leave and beginning his days of disappearing.
Within days, Lady Yue went to inform the Demon King that Li Mu had gone missing, crying pitifully, looking very wronged.
The Demon King of course believed her and returned to the Demon World to tell them a great deal.
He vowed to save his son, even questioning Bai Wei whether she was behind it, nearly overturning the palace.
But nothing was found.
The Demon King started getting anxious, directly arguing with Bai Wei, demanding she hand over his son.
Bai Wei simply replied with a denial, and imdiately he found himself controlled.
Soon he noticed soone associated with Lady Yue by his side.
He was under Bai Wei’s spell, his clear monts in a day were few.
So he could only take the pills Lady Yue brought back, for that worked only.
Though he wasn’t completely controlled, he felt uncomfortable, as if there were countless insects crawling about.
Bai Zhi: "..."
"Your storytelling is terrible, I’ll just ask, you nod or shake your head."
Bai Zhi directly threw the bamboo stick in her hand, hitting Li Mu, who yelled in pain.
"So, you knew when the Empress Dowager and Bai Wei would convert people, didn’t you?"
"Yes."
"The story begins with a packet of laundry detergent,"
At that ti, the pain was truly overwhelming. But soon there were more matters to worry about, leaving Li Mu feeling dizzy.
Everyone: "??"
"Oh, I just like saying it like that." Bai Zhi felt sowhat embarrassed.
"So then let’s officially begin. Your disappearance was false, right when the Empress Dowager was searching for half-demons, you all made the Demon King believe Li Mu was in there."
"As for Bai Wei, she’s very easily deceived. Just ntion Xiao Jiu, and nothing else matters.
So Bai Wei got anxious and needed a way.
What to do then except seek an alliance with your grandmother?"
Bai Zhi looked at Li Mu and shared her thoughts.
"Essentially, you two fought over Xiao Jiu, one aid to control the Demon King, the other intended to convert all half-demons.
But unexpectedly, the Demon King was faking, wanting to be the oriole. When you two fought, he used the formation to trap you, just like now."
Bai Zhi pointed to the barrier outside, its tyranny lying in the fact that those inside could not break it until their souls were scattered.
Just like Bai Wei and the others now, writhing in agony on the ground.
"Demon King, you prepared well, including feeding information to Moh Li to make him think you were under control.
You wanted a first-hand look at what the Empress Dowager, who managed you all this ti, was truly like."
Imdiately, the Empress Dowager could still hold a furious face, glaring at the Demon King.
"Ultimately, you thought you were the oriole, never considering you were a mantis back then."
The Demon King listened, growing angrier. Bai Zhi thought for a mont before taking out a few pills that restored much of their strength.
"I don’t understand what you’re saying!"
He didn’t understand and didn’t wish to.
"You do understand, seeing that all your painstakingly orchestrated plans were just a joke."
Bai Zhi wouldn’t give pills to the Demon King; the more he suffered, the more delighted she was.
"If you don’t believe , ask your son."
