"Your suggestion is certainly good, but you have also seen this situation. If she doesn't take the initiative to cooperate and hand over her soul, I can't do anything." Mo Juren naturally didn't want to refute Xiao Qi's face, and he didn't really mean it in the first place. His plan was to kill the other person, otherwise how would he get along with Xiao Qi in the future?
He did not expect that such an accident would happen, causing Xiao Qi's previous proposal to become a reality, but the situation was fundamentally different.
If we follow the original idea and get acquainted with Xiaoqi on the recommendation of Xiaoqi, even if he eventually becomes his spiritual beast, there will naturally be some price to pay, at least he will have to be treated as a friend and cannot be treated lightly.
It doesn't matter now. A loser who provokes him is equivalent to a prisoner of war. He can deal with him however he wants without any moral burden.
"Let me try to persuade her." Xiao Qi thought for a while and replied.
"Hurry up. Although this ice flame is under my control and has not invaded further, if it continues for too long, her physical body may be injured." Mo Juren reminded, and then withdrew his palm, leaving behind The gap was instantly closed.
"Sister Zhuiyue, you..." Looking at the figure in the blue ice, Xiao Qi felt helpless, but she did not waste any time and immediately began to secretly communicate with the other party.
I don’t know what Xiaoqi said or how the other party responded. In short, both parties became extremely excited, especially the former, who seemed to be trying his best to persuade, Ruyu’s little face turned red.
With Mo Juren's powerful spiritual consciousness, if it was operating at full strength, it would be impossible to hide the content of the exchange between the two women from him. However, he didn't want to eavesdrop on purpose, and just waited quietly.
On the other hand, Yinyue and Han Li, who had never said a word, had not yet recovered from the lightning-like incident just now.
I knew that after breaking through the Nascent Soul, his strength would definitely increase greatly, but this increase was too much. He subdued an eighth-level monster with a wave of his hand, as if he was dealing with an ant with ease. This strength was simply incredible.
Of course, there are also reasons for surprise, but if the strength is really insufficient, it will be useless to surprise.
What shocked both of them the most was the fleeting illusory talisman. It was extremely mysterious and even more terrifying. They didn't know what kind of terrifying secret technique it was that had such weird power.
As for the blue ice, both of them knew it well. Fortunately, Yin Yue had a very deep understanding of the dry blue ice flame, but Han Li was not so intuitive. He didn't realize how terrifying it was until today.
Envy is inevitable, but it doesn't stop there. Even if you give him something so terrifying, he won't be able to use it.
After a while, it seemed that the persuasion was finally successful. Xiao Qi turned around and said:
"Master, Sister Zhuiyue has agreed."
"Oh?" Mo Juren nodded, and then looked at Chaiyue in the blue ice. The latter was obviously not very willing, and said with some embarrassment,
"I can agree to Xiaoqi's suggestion, but there is one condition."
"You are a 'prisoner' and your life belongs to Mo, so what conditions do you need?" Mo Juren refused without thinking.
"You..." Such an answer immediately made Zhuiyue furious again, but before he could say anything, Xiao Qi immediately explained,
"Master heard it wrong. Sister Zhuiyue means there are no conditions."
"Caiwei..." Zhuiyue was about to explode with anger, and she felt extremely aggrieved. How could she not have conditions? What if the other party asks her to do something against her will, or humiliates her wantonly, etc.? Is it possible to endure it? It would be better to die than to live happily.
She had heard that some human monks had many perverted hobbies and even many evil secret techniques, which were much more terrifying than those of the demon clan.
She thought to herself that she was still pretty and had deep demonic power, which was definitely an extremely rare target for some monks who practiced evil arts.
Unfortunately, before she could refute, Xiao Qi's voice transmission sounded in her ears again. After listening to the content, she finally calmed down and did not refute again.
Such a performance made Mo Juren a little curious. How did Xiao Qi persuade him to be so obedient?
Of course, he was just curious and had no intention of exploring the privacy between the two.
Putting away his thoughts, he immediately looked at the figure in the blue ice again, waiting for the other party's action. He didn't wait too long. Despite his reluctance, Zhuiyue still listened to Xiao Qi's persuasion.
The soul escaped and split into two parts, with 30% of it suspended and 70% of it quickly returning to the sea of consciousness. Correspondingly, his face, which was already white from the cold, became more and more haggard, and his eyesight became dim.
What's even more strange is that the surface of its exposed snow-white jade skin suddenly began to change, and layers of fine and soft sky-blue down began to emerge.
Mo Juren was slightly surprised, but he did not hesitate at all. With a slight movement of his mind, the soul flew out of the ice and fell into his palm. The dry blue ice flame that trapped the opponent's body also melted, and then turned into a wisp of blue flame and returned to his body.
At the same time, Zhui Yue, who had finally regained her freedom, immediately softened, and then fell into Xiao Qi's soft arms.
"She's like this..." Mo Juren just opened his mouth and asked about the other party's abnormality.
"The mana was severely depleted, and the soul was forcibly torn apart. Some of the 'simulation techniques' were naturally unsustainable and could only reveal their true colors..." Xiao Qi briefly explained that the so-called monster beasts in the early stage of transformation, the essence It should be the first stage of the transformation stage. It cannot completely transform into a human form, but still retains some of the characteristics of the monster.
The difference is that some monsters don't care about these and are too lazy to pay attention to them, while some monsters pay more attention to their image, so they will practice some "disguise" techniques unique to the monsters, or take similar pills, etc. , which can cover up the characteristics of monsters.
Most of them are women, and some men are also the same, but the number is much smaller.
"So that's it." Mo Juren was suddenly enlightened, but also a little curious. He has known Xiaoqi for so many years, and he only once degenerated into his original form, but did not show the characteristics of the monster after his transformation. Could it be that he also practiced similar secret techniques? ?
"Of course I am no exception, but it is not because I have practiced some secret technique, but for other reasons." As if he had guessed what the other party was thinking, Xiao Qi continued to explain,
"Different demon clans retain different racial characteristics after surviving the thunder tribulation of transformation. Some are more, some are less, some are obvious, and some are secretive. Some of them will even retain very few, and their positions will be more... It’s special and can’t be seen from the outside…”
Having said this, he suddenly realized something, his fair cheeks suddenly turned red, and then he changed the topic,
"In short, monsters and monsters are different and cannot be generalized."
"That's it!" Mo Juren suddenly realized, and his eyes subconsciously glanced at the other party's exquisite body, and then immediately took it back.
Although it was only for a moment, women are always surprisingly sensitive in some aspects, and they naturally sensed it. Ruyu's cheeks blushed again, and then she glared at someone with some embarrassment.
Mo Juren didn't seem to see it, but suddenly thought of the one-horned rhinoceros he hunted before. It seemed that except for a bright red hair, it also didn't have many animal characteristics. Could it be a form of simulation? The reason, or is it in a hidden part?
Unfortunately, the battle at that time was too fierce, and the opponent immediately revealed his true form without having time to watch carefully.
"How are you doing?" Putting away his thoughts, Mo Juren looked at Zhuiyue again, whose face was pale and his skin was covered with blue feathers.
"It's nothing serious, just recover for a while." Zhuiyue glanced at someone and replied slightly weakly. She didn't pretend to be strong, but told the truth.
The self-splitting soul does not disappear, but 30% of it is controlled by others. Discomfort is inevitable, but it is not serious. Of course, if 30% of the soul is forcibly wiped out, that will be truly irreparable damage.
As for the alienation of the body, it will recover on its own after some time.
Mo Juren thought for a while, and suddenly there was a flash of light in his hand, revealing two jade bottles of different colors, one large and one small, and then he handed it to the front and said:
"Inside are some pills for restoring mana and nourishing the soul. Let them take one pill every other month, and they should be fine soon."
"Thank you, Master!" After taking the jade bottle, Xiao Qi replied gratefully. Without hesitation, Dang even opened the jade bottle, poured out one pill each and fed it to him at the same time. This was the top elixir in the Sea of Chaotic Stars, and the effect was extraordinary. In an instant, Zhuiyue's pale cheeks turned a little red, and his spirits improved a lot.
At this time, Zhuiyue looked at someone in front of him again, a hint of complexity flashed through his crystal eyes, but he didn't say anything more, but lay quietly in Xiao Qi's warm embrace.
At this moment, she no longer had any arrogance and became extremely fragile. Seeing this, Yinyue instinctively felt a trace of pity.
Han Li's eyes flashed slightly, but his expression did not change at all. He turned to look at his master, who was even more calm. A black token emerged from the flip of his palm.
With the activation of mana, a strange black light instantly lit up on the surface of the token, and waves of low-pitched spells sounded. The black light instantly turned into countless dense black light filaments, directly wrapping the soul, and then pulling it in. among the tokens.
The black light flashed one after another. After a moment, as the light faded, the front of the token had changed. A figure with eyes like lightning appeared on the originally bare surface, with a blue body and four wings on its ribs. bird pattern.
"It is rumored that the Moon Chasing Thunder Falcon has two wings. Why do you..."
"Sister Zhuiyue has extraordinary blood. After she transformed in the past, she gave birth to a pair of wings again." Xiao Qi quickly took the initiative to explain. As for Zhuiyue, her expression only moved slightly, but she didn't say much.
"I see, but your true form is quite good." Mo Juren smiled slightly and then put away the token. Seeing the vaguely sad look in the other party's eyes, he suddenly straightened his expression and said,
“It was not Mo’s wish that something like this happened, but now that it has happened, it is impossible to turn back time, and letting nature take its course is the only option.
For Xiao Qi's sake, I can promise that I won't do anything forced on you. If you feel unwilling to do so, you can just make a vase with peace of mind in the future. No matter whether you are practicing or resting, no one will disturb you.
Don't worry about resources. After all, I don't support idle people here. Since I am unwilling and reluctant, Mo is not a saint and is not that selfless.
Of course, if one day you change your mind, everything can be discussed again. Mo is not unkind, at least he can give you a chance for Xiao Qi's sake. "
"Thank you." After hearing these words, Zhuiyue's originally desperate heart finally relaxed a little, and gained a new understanding of this future master. However, there was not much joy.
After handing over 30% of her soul, she would no longer be able to control her life or death. All honor and disgrace would depend on the charity of the person in front of her. Such a result would be more uncomfortable for her than death. How could she be happy?
Fortunately, she still has Caiwei, who allows her to retain a little face, which can be regarded as a fig leaf. However, the essence cannot be concealed, and there will no longer be any freedom at all in this life.
"Master..." Xiao Qi obviously guessed Zhui Yue's thoughts, and then turned to look at Mo Juren.
"Since she is one of our own, it doesn't hurt to tell her some things." Mo Juren understood what the other party was thinking and had no intention of stopping her. On the contrary, he was a little surprised by Xiao Qi's performance today. In order to chase the moon, the other party had called him his master no less than ten times, which had never happened before.
Xiao Qi is also an extremely arrogant character. Being able to be so disrespectful of dignity and even begging again and again shows the depth of his relationship with Zhui Yue.
Mo Juren admired Xiao Qi who valued love and justice very much. Likewise, with such a bond, Zhui Yue would not be so negative forever, and sooner or later he would finally return to his heart.
What happened was indeed beyond his expectation. He had never thought that he would be able to accept the other party, but unexpectedly, he became his spiritual beast.
Sure enough, plans can never keep up with changes, and even he can't control everything. But as he said just now, since it has happened, it is natural to follow the trend. It is still necessary to spend some time to polish the other party.
He suddenly thought of Xiao Jin in the spirit beast bag. He didn't know if this little guy would be worried after knowing the situation. The existence of the 'Moon Chasing Thunder Falcon' would probably make him completely 'laid off'.
Putting away his thoughts, Mo Juren's hand flashed again and he took out the jade slip that recorded the sea map of Qiyuan Island. There was still a tough battle to be fought, and he had to plan carefully.
This naturally attracted the attention of Yinyue and Han Li. On their way back, they heard each other briefly mention some of their next plans, although they sounded incredible and carried great risks.
However, out of his continued trust in Mo Juren, he finally accepted it.
The person who is most concerned here is naturally Han Li, because he is the protagonist of the next action and takes the greatest risk, so he cannot help but not take it seriously.
Xiao Qi didn't know this. At this time, she was holding Zhui Yue and whispering some secrets. The latter was a little careless at first. However, as she heard more and more information, her expression became more and more surprised. Even a little stunned.
Only now did she finally understand why Xiao Qi was unwilling to leave Mo Juren and why she had tried her best to persuade her to surrender. It turned out that such a major interest was involved. (End of chapter)
