Mo Bai then said, "I'm relieved to see you tonight."
"Mo Bai—"
"I can't do what you asked me to."
Having said that,
Mo Bai's figure
disappeared before Zhao Shuning's eyes.
Zhao Shuning just stood there and didn't leave immediately.
Mo Bai's stubbornness
was still the same as before.
Once he made up his mind about something, he would never turn back.
"Maybe you've never thought that your feelings for me are just dependence, not the so - called romantic love?"
Even if she told Mo Bai this,
he wouldn't believe it.
He would only think
that Zhao Shuning was doubting his feelings for her.
"Forget it. Let everything be at the mercy of fate. If I still try to change the fate now, maybe in the end, I won't even be able to change my own destiny."
She gave a soft smile
and then disappeared.
Within the Eastern Ze Wilderness,
dozens of large - scale uprisings broke out.
Yan Ruyu was calming those wars while looking for the scattered constellations on the Star Disk Formation.
He had gathered seven or eight of them.
However,
looking at these people in front of him,
even Yan Ruyu was a bit surprised.
Except for Ye Xingrui, whom he wasn't very familiar with, he had some intersections with the others before because of Ning'er.
Among them,
there were the venomous snake Xie An and Ning'er's younger brother Ye Xingchen.
There were also Zhao Xiangxiang and Xie Yu.
And the children Song Zhiyi, Chu Wen, and Chu Nuan that Ning'er adopted in her previous life.
The more lost constellations he found,
the more flustered Yan Ruyu felt.
He had to comfort himself.
The constellations that could occupy a place on the Star Disk Formation must not be ordinary people.
Ning'er wasn't an ordinary person either, so it was reasonable that she could cultivate so many outstanding people.
He just didn't know
if these people from the Eastern Ze Wilderness
would eventually gather around the evil star as the Star Disk Formation indicated and help her come into the world.
It shouldn't be the case.
As long as he was in control of the situation,
that scene wouldn't happen.
He had looked at and examined these children one by one. They were not the kind of people who would sacrifice all their spiritual power and mental strength for an evil star that would bring chaos to the world.
Xie An had said that he wanted to make the Shuiyun Sheng the veritable number - one gang in the world. There should be no one in this world who could make him give up the abilities he had painstakingly cultivated for decades.
As for Ye Xingchen, needless to say, as long as Ning'er didn't want it, he definitely wouldn't do anything to make Ning'er unhappy.
As for the others,
Yan Ruyu had been kind to them. He believed in their character and was sure that they would never do anything so out of line.
However, Song Zhiyi surprised Yan Ruyu.
He couldn't cultivate,
but he was indeed a constellation beside the evil star on the Star Disk Formation. What would his role be then?
Just as Yan Ruyu's affairs in the Eastern Ze Wilderness came to an end, he had to rush to other continents. Fortunately, in the Qingyun Kingdom, Feng Zhan was still in charge of the government affairs.
Feng Zhan and Shi Jiu
were busy dealing with the government affairs of the Qingyun Kingdom during the day.
At night,
they had to discuss how to send Zhao Huai back to his own world.
But Shi Jiu had tried many methods
but couldn't contact the Underworld again.
Every time
seeing her dejected look,
Feng Zhan could only comfort her softly.
"Where there's a will, there's a way. Don't be too hasty."
Moreover,
Zhao Huai's abilities had been greatly damaged last time. He couldn't fully recover in a short period.
He needed a very quiet place to recuperate.
Now,
Feng Zhan and Shi Jiu couldn't set foot in the Ancient Wasteland. They had to wait until Bu Ran finished dealing with all the outside affairs before discussing it.
"Jiu Jiu, you once said that my coming to this Nine - Continent Continent was actually the will of heaven?"
"I pushed you into this fire pit with my own hands. I'm sorry, A Zhan."
Feng Zhan didn't care much.
Then he said, "I think there's something fishy about it. Behind Zhao Huai is the Beast Supreme, the only supreme in the beast world who can transform into a human. How could you manage to do all these things without being detected when such a person escaped?"
"What do you mean, A Zhan?"
"Don't Uncle and Eldest Aunt know about this?"
Shi Jiu fell silent.
"Jiu Jiu, with your wisdom, it's hard to deceive Eldest Aunt and the others. I've heard from Mother that Thirteenth Uncle is very powerful. He has a pair of discerning eyes and the holy fire passed down to him by Father when he was a god. Do you think they know about what you've done, or do they even acquiesce in it?"
"If—if it's really as you said, then why did Eldest Sister and the others do this?"
Feng Zhan also fell silent.
He always felt
that this matter
shouldn't be that simple.
This Nine - Continent Continent
was like a realm, containing a great deal. But would there be one or two pairs of eyes, or maybe hundreds of pairs of eyes, watching here?
Feng Zhan couldn't figure it out.
"Maybe Second Sister would know?"
Feng Zhan shook his head.
"Even if my mother knows, it's useless. If she really knew what was going to happen, she should have reminded us when we met last time. She didn't say anything. Either she doesn't know, or she knows but deliberately doesn't tell us. No matter which result it is, we don't know where to start."
Shi Jiu understood.
Although she and Second Sister were both from the Underworld, born and raised there,
they had no blood relationship.
But their relationship was even stronger than that of flesh - and - blood relatives.
Shi Jiu had spent quite a long time with Second Sister.
She knew Second Sister's actions
very well.
She could be kind.
She could also be fearless.
The most important thing was
that the decisions she made should only be influenced by Second Brother - in - law in this world. But Second Brother - in - law was really a wife - slave. Whatever Second Sister said was right. Right was right, and wrong was also right.
It could be said
that in the Nine - Continent Continent and the vast expanse of the world,
there should be no one who could control A Zhan and Bu Ran's mother. Even Eldest Sister and the others couldn't interfere.
"I don't know how Bu Ran is. He's been running around so much. I don't know about the prophecy of the Star Disk Formation—"
Feng Zhan continued, "The Star Disk Formation is missing a corner after all. It should be as Bu Ran said. There's nothing serious. Otherwise, something should have happened long ago."
Shi Jiu was anxious.
"Let's hope so."
"Time is running out."
"Don't worry. You still don't trust Bu Ran's work? He will surely turn the tide. Not to mention just one evil star, even if there were ten, he should have a way to deal with them."
Bu Ran had been a cold - faced Yama since childhood. When dealing with such major events, he never mixed personal feelings in it.
"Maybe. There should be nothing in this world that can stop Bu Ran's steps."
Is there really no variable?
Maybe.
Yes.
Feng Zhan didn't believe that Bu Ran would gamble with the lives of everyone in the Nine - Continent Continent.
On his shoulders
rested
the responsibility of the Feng family.
