Mu Lian continued, "But later, you insisted on forcing me to marry you, and my father, your father, everyone came together to force me, forcing me to the point where I couldn't breathe. At that time, I also I tried to see if I could turn my love for you as a brother and sister into a love between a man and a woman, but I found that I couldn't do it. I had no choice but to escape. And when I met you in the ordinary world. After arriving at Xiaodong, I am even more glad that I made such a decision, because that is true love between me and Xiaodong!”
Seeing that Li Baiyi seemed to be persuaded by herself, Mu Lian hurriedly continued, "Li Baiyi, you have to know that love cannot come by force. Living with someone who you don't love, or who doesn't love you, can't force it. There will be no happiness, only endless pain and abyss.”
"Lian'er, do you still regard me as your elder brother now?" Li Baiyi pondered for a moment, turned to look at Mu Lian, and murmured.
Mu Lian sighed softly and said, "I originally regarded you as my eldest brother, but you forced me like this and even killed Xiaodong, I..."
Li Baiyi waved his hand to stop Mu Lian from talking anymore, and said sadly: "It seems that all this is my own fault!"
"Li Baiyi, I know you have feelings for me, but I have given all my love to Xiaodong. Even if you get my person, you will not get my heart. If you are willing to let me go, then I and I Xiaodong will be grateful to you, but if you insist on not giving up, then do as my father said and marry my body to your Li family!"
Li Baiyi stared deeply at Mu Lian. After a long while, a smile suddenly appeared on his face and he said: "Lian'er, compared to the last time I came here, you have lost weight again..."
Mu Lian obviously didn't want to hear these words from Li Baiyi, and she couldn't help showing a little impatience in her expression, saying, "This is my own business, you don't need to care."
Li Baiyi didn't take it seriously and continued, "Lian'er, from now on, you have to cheer yourself up as soon as possible, eat when it's time, sleep when it's time, and keep your mood relaxed. Only in this way will you be able to move as quickly as possible." Return to the most beautiful time."
Seeing that Li Baiyi seemed to be unfinished, Mu Lian couldn't help but said softly, "Li Baiyi, let me say it again, this is none of your business! You don't need to pretend to care about me, I won't lead you Love!”
"Haha... You don't accept it, but someone will accept it!" Li Baiyi even opened his mouth and laughed at this time.
"What do you mean?" Mu Lian was stunned, with confusion on her face.
Li Baiyi smiled lightly and said, "I think you will be very interested in the person I met recently..."
"Hmph! Who did you meet? Why should I be interested?" Li Baiyi kept saying this and that, which made Mu Lian finally lose her patience and said coldly.
"What if this person is the Wandong you have been longing for?"
"Who? Who do you think it is?" Mu Lian, who had a frosty and impatient expression just now, suddenly widened her eyes, her voice trembled, and she even couldn't help but grab Li Baiyi's hand.
Li Baiyi couldn't help but sigh in his heart. If Mu Lian could be so excited for him once in his life, then he would die without regrets.
No longer trying to be pretentious, Li Baiyi said, "Your perseverance over the past few years has not been in vain. That boy Wandong is indeed still alive."
"You... have you really seen him? No, it's impossible, you must be lying to me! I have already heard that you have been practicing hard under the supervision of your grandfather recently and have no time to go to the small world of mortals. Move around. Huh! Li Baiyi, do you think I'm a stupid woman?" Mu Lian shook her head repeatedly, looking completely disbelieving in Li Baiyi's words.
"Haha... Who told you that I met Wandong in the small mortal world?"
"Ah!? You...you mean that Xiaodong has come to the Taoist world now?" As soon as Li Baiyi said this, Mu Lian could no longer calm down, and her almond-shaped eyes blinked and twinkled. burst into tears. The surprise and excitement are beyond words.
"Not bad! To be honest, this is beyond my expectation..."
"Where is he? Where is he now? Tell me quickly. Hurry!" Mu Lian didn't know where she got such strong force, but she grabbed Li Baiyi's hand until it hurt.
Although it hurt, Li Baiyi was reluctant to throw away Mu Lian's hand. This was the first time Mu Lian took the initiative to grab his hand since the two of them grew up. But looking at Mu Lian's excited and extremely happy expression, Li Baiyi suddenly thought that Wandong's words were actually right.
To love someone, you don't necessarily have to keep them as your own. Hiding aside, watching her smile, watching her happy life, and silently guarding her, this is also love!
"In Linyang City! But he has changed his appearance now. He is no longer the original Wandong."
"Yes, Wandong's body was destroyed by you that day. Only his soul escaped with the protection of the Mingshen Soul Jade. He had to find a new body before he could truly be reborn." What Li Baiyi said made Mu Mu Lian was convinced that Li Baiyi did not lie to him and that he really saw Wandong. The excitement and happiness on his face became more and more intense.
Li Baiyi frowned and said, "Wandong is no longer the Wandong he used to be. He is just a stranger to you now. Are you still willing to continue to love him?"
Mu Lian was stunned for a moment, then understood what Li Baiyi meant, and said with a smile, "True love is the resonance of the soul and has nothing to do with the body. Li Baiyi, don't underestimate my love for Xiaodong." . Even if he becomes a sloppy old man now, I will still love him!"
Mu Lian's words made Li Baiyi very envious and even jealous. He said with some annoyance, "Don't worry about that. Wandong has not become a bad old man. In my opinion, he is more handsome and handsome than before. That's it." You can rest assured.”
"Wait! Li Baiyi, you hate Xiaodong so much. When you met him in Linyang City, you didn't do anything to him, right?"
Mu Lian suddenly thought of this, her expression was immediately occupied by anxiety and worry, and she stared at Li Baiyi and asked.
"What do you think?" Li Baiyi asked with a smile.
Mu Lian's expression suddenly changed, and she said in a very stern voice, "You did attack Xiaodong. Tell me, what did you do to him? Is he still alive now?"
When she thought that Wandong might have been poisoned by Li Baiyi, Mu Lian was not only anxious, but even her eyes showed murderous intent.
This time is no different than last time. Li Baiyi must have been prepared. If Wandong falls into his hands again, he will never have the same luck as the first time.
Seeing that Mu Lian was serious, Li Baiyi dared to make a joke. If he failed, Mu Lian would attack him on the spot. He quickly let out a wry smile and said mockingly, "I wanted to kill that kid, but time has passed and I am no longer his opponent."
"You... what did you say?" Li Baiyi's words stunned Mu Lian, her eyes filled with disbelief.
Li Baiyi's smile became increasingly bitter and he said, "You really have a good eye! Wandong is indeed one of the most talented people in the world. His current cultivation level is far above mine. I have fought against him, but even his He can't defeat him even with one move. But don't worry, I won't be suppressed by this kid forever. One day, I will still defeat him..."
Mu Lian no longer took Li Baiyi's words to heart at all. The excitement deep in her heart reached an unbearable level.
Mu Lian once imagined that Wandong would come to the Taoist world one day and come to the Mu family to marry her openly, but she did not expect that this day would come so quickly. The distance that originally seemed out of reach seemed to be infinitely closer at once. Happiness came so suddenly, Mu Lian was completely unprepared, and tears instantly filled her eyes.
"Since Xiaodong has come to the Dao Sect World, he... why doesn't he come to me?"
"If he comes to you, isn't he asking for death? Lian'er, you have to know that defeating me, Li Baiyi, does not mean that you will be invincible. Think about it, if Wandong comes to pick you up now, your father Can you let him go easily? However, Wandong asked me to tell you that you must wait for him, and he will come to Mu's house to marry you in a short time!"
"He...he really said that?" Tears in Mu Lian's eyes suddenly poured down like a waterfall. I just felt in my heart that all the suffering I had endured over the past few years had not been in vain.
Li Baiyi snorted and said, "I hate him so much. If he hadn't entrusted me, how could I have said this to you? Is it possible that I, Li Baiyi, have lost my mind? In this case, I still cut corners, some It’s disgusting, I really can’t say it, I’d better wait until you meet again and let him tell you personally!”
"Pfft! When I heard that you were talking nonsense, Xiaodong is not the kind of person who talks sweetly. I see that instead of cutting corners, you only added fuel and jealousy." Mu Lian was in a good mood and couldn't help but laugh.
"Oh~~~ I dare say that boy is not so perfect, he also has shortcomings."
"The only one who is perfect is God. In that case, he would be unlovable!"
"Hmph! I can see that in the eye of the beholder, a sow is better than a Xi Tzu! No matter whether it is a shortcoming or an advantage, as long as it appears in Wandong's body, you will like it!"
"Li Baiyi, congratulations, you have enlightened!"
"Ah? Hahaha..." Li Baiyi was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help laughing.
In the past few years, Li Baiyi had never smiled so happily in front of Mu Lian. In a daze, it seemed like he was back when he was a child again. This feeling made Li Baiyi like it from the bottom of his heart.
"Huh? Li Baiyi, I forgot to ask you, how could you be so kind to pass the message on Xiaodong's behalf? Could it be that Xiaodong was scared and defeated you?"
"Bah! Am I, Li Baiyi, such a weakling? Lian'er, you look down on me too much." Li Baiyi's eyes widened with an angry look, which made Mu Lian burst into laughter. (To be continued)
