Ironclad Chains (1)
Ye Mu’s eyes widen, “What about it?” She originally already knew about Zhao Yiqin’s ending. There may be so slight differences from the original historical novel, but the difference wasn’t significant.
Seeing how Ye Mu’s surprised expression contrasted with her effortless, What about it? made Mo Linyuan wrinkle his eyebrows tightly. He suddenly reached out with one hand to lift Ye Mu’s chin up to intently scrutinize her.
“So then… you can predict the future?”
Ye Mu wanted to tell him everything… but for so reason, seeing his grave expression right then, she felt so things she shouldn’t say… that she cannot say.
Mo Linyuan saw how quiet Ye Mu had beco. With furrowed brows, he asked her again, “Who exactly are you?”
He rembered, since the beginning, Ye Mu had no reason to help him. She seed to hold firmly to her own beliefs, regardless of what he did. She always pursued justice with no second thoughts and gave support to others wholeheartedly. Why is that? For what reason was she doing that for?
Back then Mo Linyuan had never thought of this question before. But now, the answer to this question already began to taunt his consciousness. He felt sowhat doubtful.
Ye Mu regarded Mo Linyuan and said gravely, “I have already said before, I am soone sent by the Gods to help you. Although this may not be exactly true, it is close enough to the truth.”
However, she didn’t say the second half of the sentence. Which was, once she obtained the City Boundary Map, she would return to her ho. That was to say, there was a ti limit to her aid.
Mo Linyuan didn’t believe in destiny. But this was Ye Mu’s second ti saying these words, which swayed his own beliefs.
“Help ? Then tell sothing… how long will you be helping ? In other words, soday you could disappear… just like how you appeared before ?”
Just the thought of this possibility… Mo Linyuan’s eyes held discontent as the arms around Ye Mu tightened.
Ye Mu saw how he had a horrible expression.
“I…” She was just about to reveal the truth, but she only said one word before her heart abruptly trembled!
Witnessing Ye Mu’s reaction as she covered her chest, Mo Linyuan started to panic, “What’s wrong? Mu’er? Mu’er?!”
Ye Mu’s expression beca unsightly. Her murderous spirit started to rise. The mont she opened her eyes again, her pupils turned a horrendous red!
“Call the Silent Master and bring him here!” said Ye Mu.
She violently pushed Mo Linyuan aside. She noted the tifra and predicted her outbreak is not far away. But the murderous spirit ca so quickly and violently; Ye Mu felt that this ti, she may not be able to maintain her rationality!
Mo Linyuan protested, “No way! That Silent monk works for Zhao Yiqin. Who knows what he will do to you if we asked him for help?!”
He wanted to say more but, the mont he saw Ye Mu’s expression, all his words were clogged in his throat…
…because Ye Mu was crying.
She was suffering. She felt that she could lose her mind at any mont. Although Mo Linyuan didn’t trust the Silent Master… She was desperate to the point of tears.
She didn’t say a single word, but Mo Linyuan suddenly felt a twist in his heart. He clenched his eyes closed, then rushed to command the servants,
“Quickly, bring the Silent Master here to see !”
The Silent Monk, having been summoned abruptly, knew what could have happened. Mo Linyuan seized him the mont he entered the secret chamber of the palace!
“‘I’m warning you, if you behave obediently, I will let you and your mother live. If you dare try anything, you can watch your mother die a lingering painful death! Do not test on this!”
The Silent monk’s pupil shrank. If it hadn’t been an ergency, the emperor wouldn’t be so panic-stricken and threaten him like this.
The monk remained calm as he replied, “This ti, I will save her…”
“You better!”
“…However, only under the condition that no one else is allowed to enter. Otherwise, I won’t save her!”
