Huo Cheng was stunned when he heard Yuan Shaojun say that he did it on purpose.
In fact, in the first few years, he had no idea what was happening in the underground palace.
He only knew that Mu Xi and Lou Jingxiao had disappeared together, and might even be dead.
Therefore, in those years, he had been immersed in the shadow of Ye Muxi's death. He was also a little unmotivated and did not think much about many things.
After a while, after he completely came out of the shadow in his heart, he began to practice with concentration and stayed in seclusion.
Until Liao Wen came to the door and asked if he knew Ye Mu Xi's whereabouts, Liao Wen said firmly that Ye Mu Xi was not dead. This also made Huo Cheng gradually feel that Mu Xi might really not be dead.
So he asked Yuan Shaojun to help send people to look for him.
Because he had always been in the Sky Gate and never left, he didn't know what happened in the underground palace. Even when Yuan Shaojun came to find him, he would only tell him that Ye Muxi's whereabouts had not been found.
Until now.
Mu Xi is right. As his friend, even if Yuan Shaojun only stands on the side of the underground palace, those small sects and sects will naturally have to weigh themselves first, even if they want to go against the underground palace. Do they dare to go against Tian Tian? The door is right.
But there is neither the Sky Gate nor the Phoenix Pavilion.
When he heard what Yuan Shaojun said, Huo Cheng's mood suddenly turned cold to the core.
"Why? On purpose?" Huo Cheng looked at Yuan Shaojun in disbelief: "You...don't you know that Mu Xi is my best friend?"
Why not help
Doesn't he care about his friends at all
This is his best friend!
When Mu Xi asked him about this matter, Huo Cheng felt his face was burning, making him feel like he couldn't face Mu Xi.
Even if... Even if Yuan Shaojun only tried hard once, he wouldn't be so confident, but he still did it on purpose!
He didn't think much about it before, thinking that Yuan Shaojun would definitely not stand idly by, but he just couldn't change the situation.
But there is none!
He even deliberately stood idly by!
Huo Cheng's heart dropped.
Yuan Shaojun frowned: "Cheng'er, don't think too much."
Huo Cheng was unhappy: "Why don't you tell me not to think too much! Do you know? When I was in the small world, if Mu Xi hadn't brought me out of Shenhun Pavilion, I would be just a puppet of Shenhun Pavilion now. Cauldron! If she hadn't taken me to the Soul Reaver Sect, do you think I would be able to ascend to the big world and meet you now? She regarded me as a friend. I was alone in the Demon Realm, and all the demons treated me poorly. She was polite, because she knew I was her friend. Otherwise, do you think I could return to the human world intact in the hands of so many demons after I arrived in the Demon Realm? What about you... Did you just sit back and watch your uncle like this, adding insult to injury? ?”
The more Huo Cheng thought about it, the angrier he became. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that he was particularly sorry for Mu Xi and his uncle.
Yuan Shaojun said: "Cheng'er, things are not what you think. We..."
"Okay, you don't need to say anything. I already know that you are just like those old guys in the Sky Sect. You are not allowed to do this or that. Whatever the Young Sect Master should do, I will do what I should do. It’s something the young master shouldn’t do. I can’t do anything. It’s a lot of breaking of rules. If I hadn’t done it for..."
"Huo Cheng." Mu Xi called out coldly, her eyebrows furrowed: "When did you get so angry that you can't let others finish what they say?"
Huo Cheng: "I..."
Huo Cheng's eyes turned red with anger.
"I just feel very sorry for my uncle... I'm sorry for you."
Mu Xi said coldly: "I am not saying this in front of you to make you quarrel with your father."
Huo Cheng turned his head to the other side and stopped talking.
Seeing that Ye Muxi's words were more effective than his own, Yuan Shaojun sighed slightly in his heart, his chest was sore and he felt quite uncomfortable.
He would actually be jealous of his own son with a woman. Even he would not believe it if he said this.
Mu Xi seemed a little helpless and said, "I knew that if you knew about this matter in the future, you would definitely think more about it, so I took this opportunity to ask your father."
But I didn't expect Huo Cheng to be so impulsive. As soon as he heard the beginning, he started to complain.
If he himself knew about this in the future, would he still have a falling out with Yuan Shaojun in private
Mu Xi turned to Yuan Shaojun and said, "I also want to know why?"
Yuan Shaojun will meet and reunite with Huo Cheng and his son. Mu Xi dare not say that this is all her fault, but at least she also takes a large part of the credit.
So she didn't understand that even though Yuan Shaojun loved her Huo Cheng so much, he didn't even say a few words to help the underground palace. The palace is easy to bully and has no backing, so they plan to join forces to eradicate the underground palace.
Yuan Shaojun could only say: "Miss Ye, you have to know that your identity is very complicated."
Mu Xi said nothing and continued to listen to Yuan Shaojun's explanation.
Yuan Shaojun said again: "You are different from Cheng'er. He has a heavy burden. I will hand over the Sky Gate to him in the future. If you are still alive, I am very happy to have a friendship between you. The deeper the better, Because I believe that as long as you are here, you will not put Chenger in trouble, but in the past thirty years, you were not here, you are dead."
Mu Xi understood that what Yuan Shaojun said was that the whole world thought she was dead.
"You are dead, and Lou Jingxiao is also dead. Whether it is to the forces behind you or to Lou Jingxiao's demon clan, Cheng'er is an outsider. Without you in the middle, he will not get any protection. , On the contrary, once he takes over the Sky Gate in the future, everything he has done before will be questioned. What is the relationship between him and the demons? Questions will be asked about what abilities he has."
Huo Cheng opened his mouth and glanced at Yuan Shaojun.
Yuan Shaojun said: "If you are not dead, you can bear all these doubts. With the power behind you and the power of the demon clan, you will not be unable to bear it. Cheng'er does not need to bear these. But if you are dead Now, all these doubts can only be borne by Cheng'er. He doesn't have your strength, he doesn't have the power behind him, and he doesn't have a group of demons to back him up. All he has is a Sky Sect that has been questioned. As the young master, if you die, I will not let Chenger have any interaction with the underground palace."
Call him despicable, call him taking advantage of Ye Muxi, in short, this was his plan all along.
The reason why he had been standing by and watching was because Ye Muxi was dead, and he didn't want Cheng'er to bear this alone.
If she was still alive, he wouldn't care how good the relationship between them was, but if she died, it would be better to break off this friendship.
Huo Cheng was angry and moved: "Who wants you to do this..."
However, even he himself did not have the confidence to say this.
