The Otherworldly God

Chapter 272

Le Zheng Yuhua dragged Mu Xin straight into the house of the owner, mistaking them for thieves, and their shouting attracted a group of guards.

Le Zheng Yuhua quickly tore off her clothes to cover the faces of the two people, then pulled her away without using any magic throughout the process.

It seemed that as long as he didn't expose himself, he would enjoy it, so he took Mu Xin for a walk on purpose, and even ran with her in his arms afterwards.

Seeing that it was almost done, he took Mu Xin and hid on the roof.

The two looked at each other and smiled, and couldn't help laughing out loud. They were almost discovered. The two covered each other's mouths and didn't let go until they left.

"You must have lived a very orderly life all these years, right?"

"Yun Xiu will be worried about my health."

"It's not nice to have a woman hugging you, so let me do it."

"What you said is no different from making excuses."

Le Zheng Yuhua watched her looking into the distance with a gloomy expression, then he remembered that this was the former Mu Mansion.

"In just a short period of time, this is what happened."

"There's nothing to worry about my nominal father. He's not an ordinary person. Even my nominal mother is mortal. Even if she lives longer than the old man, it's only a few decades. The reason why the old man is the old man is because he is a special case."

Le Zheng Yuhua put his arm around her shoulders.

"I will try to spend more time with you. Don't be disgusted by my wrinkled face when the time comes."

"No." Mu Xin knew that she couldn't live to see him grow old, but she didn't have the heart to break his hope. "This is the first time I've taken a good look at this place. It feels a little small."

Le Zheng Yuhua didn't want to see her trapped in the past memories and feel sad, so she covered her stomach and said, "I'm so hungry, let's go eat something delicious."

Then he took her to the alley and walked onto the street. As expected, compared with Jimen Pass, this place was much more lively, but it seemed not as lively as the days when the Mu Mansion was there. After all, many people from the Taoist family came at that time.

Seeing that Le Zheng Yuhua's initial excitement turned into disappointment, Mu Xin asked, "Is it different from the world you live in?"

"Yeah, there's nothing good to eat, just some noodle stalls or something."

"Compared to the past, people now live and work in peace and contentment. The war left behind only devastation."

“Human nature is the most complicated. You can’t always keep an eye on the fate of others. Sometimes you just have to let them be.”

Mu Xin knew what he meant and smiled slightly.

"You sound a little too hopeful, and I don't want you to be disappointed."

"If the hope is not good enough, there is no point in me fighting for it. I will not sacrifice myself for nothing. I must have a purpose, and I will do it without hesitation."

“So, you can expand the picture a little bit, so that at least if it’s generally good, you won’t be too disappointed.”

Le Zheng Yuhua understood what she meant, but didn't want to tell her what Sanye said. At least if she failed, she would be the only one who would be disappointed.

"Don't worry, I'm stronger than you think."

"I believe this."

When Mu Xin was about to say something, his expression suddenly changed. He waved at Le Zheng Yuhua, put down the Heavenly Sword and pressed it on the stool on the ground.

"what happened?"

"fine."

Le Zheng Yuhua immediately acted as if nothing had happened and continued eating noodles.

"let me go."

"be honest."

Several people were escorting a woman passing by. She was still struggling, but when she saw Mu Xin, she immediately looked away and calmed down.

Mu Xin calmly picked up the bowl and drank the soup without even looking at them the whole time.

"Boss, the noodles are a little bland."

The boss came over and took a look. He pointed at the empty bowl and said with a smile: "Sir, you are telling me this after you have finished eating. If you had told me earlier, I could have added some flavor for you."

Le Zheng Yuhua looked at those people and asked in a low voice: "What are they doing..."

He took a look and quickly turned around, signaling Le Zheng Yuhua to stop talking nonsense.

"We heard that it was a Taoist priest, but we didn't know much, and no one dared to ask more. You have to know that in this city of paintings, there is Le Zheng recently, and there was Mu Mansion in the past, and they never did things like this. Those foreign races living in the city were captured and killed, and it is estimated that there are not many left.

We didn't really care about this. We all knew them. They were no different from us and hadn't done anything bad. Who knew what was going on? They would sometimes throw punches at ordinary people like us. Anyone who got close to a foreign race would suffer.

I see that you two don't look like people from Huacheng, so it's better not to meddle in other people's business. If you are just passing by to rest, it's better to leave early."

The boss lowered his voice and kept glancing around.

Le Zheng Yuhua didn't say anything. He gave the money, got up and left with Mu Xin.

"That was... the one in a jumpsuit, right?"

Le Zheng Yuhua has already wrapped up the Heavenly Sword.

"Do you also think I'm heartless? I knew she was in great danger, but I didn't even look at her. And even though she recognized us, she still acted like a stranger."

"You are under too much pressure. If you can choose ten, who would bother with one and nine? Even if that one is the person you love the most."

"If it were you, I would take action. In the end, it's still not loving enough and selfish."

"No, that's not the case. In your eyes, the reason you chose me was not just out of love or selfishness. It was because you firmly believed that only by joining forces could we defeat him and take it back. The choice you made... is still the one that pursues maximum benefit.

Just as you know that Shui Ling and Qi Ming are of great significance to me, if they met with an accident, I would be heartbroken and even resentful of you, but even so, you are still willing to give them up. The reason is that in your mind, they are just a minority and can be sacrificed.

It's like you know they are dangerous, but still allow them to act as bait, while at the same time deploying other people to give them the most comprehensive protection possible.

Your heart is full of contradictions. Faced with such a situation, you will never be able to take everything into consideration. You are forced to weigh the pros and cons among many possibilities and choose the option that benefits the majority of people.

It is easier to choose all or none of them than to choose some of them. You don't need to be too demanding on yourself. If you have the ability, you will definitely keep as much as possible. That's enough.

I believe that Miss Lian Yi can understand, otherwise, she would not stand with you and have some confidence in the people around you or... other aliens. And, I have to remember that no matter what you choose, I will support you. "

"Because your choice is consistent with mine."

"I don't deny it. As the saying goes, people with different ideals cannot work together. No matter if we are good or bad, we are all impure. It's fine just like this. To accomplish great things without any sacrifice is an ideal, not a reality. Let's go home."

Mu Xinliang put her hand on his and they left the painted city together.
