Chapter 283 The Tomb Keeper (3)
Mu Changfeng suppressed his excitement and said, "Why did Miss Su Shao determine that the next blood sacrifice is not far away?"
Su Shao said heartbrokenly: "Before every blood sacrifice, the demons will kill many flower demons and tree demons to seize spiritual energy to support the wishing tree. At the beginning of this year, I heard that many flower demons and tree demons died in despair."
When Lin Yuan heard this, he was immediately overjoyed. Su Shao said in surprise: "Are you not worried, but you are happy about it?"
"I..." Lin Yuan's smile froze, lowered his head guiltily, and whispered: "I want to make a wish, I hope my mother's eyes will be clear, and I hope Aunt Qi can come back to reunite with my mother."
Su Shao said: "Assessing the blood festival, you want to kill someone, are you willing?"
Lin Yuan remembered what Zhao Zhuoyan and Yun Wuya once said, and his cheeks were as hot as a fever. He even despised his vicious thoughts just now.
Mu Changfeng knew Lin Yuan’s mood very well, because he was also full of joy when he learned that the next blood sacrifice was about to come.
The arrival of the Blood Sacrifice means that Fang Zhiliang and Mu Wanlian have hope of resurrection. The light of hope is too dazzling and tempting, making him completely forget the cruel blood of the Blood Sacrifice of the Demon Clan, which is outrageous.
However, he is better than Lin Yuan at hiding his mind. His indifferent expression conceals the indescribable joy and does not let anyone see the flaws.
When Lin Yuan felt guilty, he was also full of guilt. For the sake of his close relatives and loved ones, what is the difference between this kind of act of anger between man and gods and Xue Honglian, who betrayed his friend back then?
Mu Changfeng said: "You don't have to be embarrassed. People have evil thoughts and will always be aroused at the right time. But real people also have a sense of morality and shame. They know that their thoughts are vicious and hateful, and they suppress them with righteousness and do not put them into practical actions. They are still worthy of the world."
Lin Yuan raised his head and said, "Junior brother is right. I will defeat my evil thoughts and will never collude with the demons. Even if there are greater benefits that tempt me, I will never do anything to kill people."
Su Shao praised: "You brothers and brothers are all real men. I have lived for thousands of years and have never seen a few people who are as open and upright as you."
Mu Changfeng smiled slightly and said, "Miss is a mistake."
"I'm telling the truth," Su Shao looked at the two of them gently. "Humans are the most complex creatures in the world. One thought can become a Buddha, and one thought can become a demon. There are very few people who can defeat the evil in their hearts. You are all rare good people."
"You are there to speak cleverly," Lin Yuan's eyes suddenly became very cold, "You killed Miss Lan He?"
Su Shao shook her head and said, "We are our best friends, how could I kill her?"
Lin Yuan said: "Even if you didn't kill her, you're always wearing her skin, which is cruel enough. You have the face to say that you are your best friend, so I'm gonna be."
Su Shao looked back at Fang Rui, confirming that she had no sign of awakening, and calmed down, saying, "It was Lan He who told me to do this before he died."
"It's so ridiculous in the world," Lin Yuan pulled out the Tai'a sword and pointed it at Su Shao. "Fang Rui is taken away by me and handed over to the Taimaster to raise and take care of you. You vicious woman, it's best to stay away from her."
"Don't be impatient," Mu Changfeng grabbed Lin Yuan's hand and said, "My junior brother thinks she is not lying."
Lin Yuan saw Fang Rui sleeping at first glance, and recalled Su Shao's intention to protect her was even better than her biological mother.
How could a woman treat other people's children as her own child? How could she be an unforgivable person? How could she peel the child's biological mother alive?
Lin Yuan put away Tai A’s sword and said, “I’ll give you a chance to explain.”
Su Shao said: "Bang Zhe stole Lan He's treasure and disappeared without a trace. Lan He was deeply shocked and moved his fetal energy. He gave birth when he was seven months pregnant. He had difficulty giving birth. Although he saved his life, he was seriously ill and could not survive for a few years. Lin Ying seized the inner alchemy and was also dying. He has been dependent on Lan He for several years."
Seeing Lin Yuan's cold expression, she couldn't help but be more careful, "I helped the evil and helped a woman kill her biological flesh and blood, and I was always regretful. I was quietly waiting for the retribution to come, but God was willing to do anything, and I didn't die, and there was a reason why I couldn't die. Rui'er needed me to take care of her."
Mu Changfeng said: "How did your spiritual power be restored?"
Su Shao said: "I stole the life-extending candle when my mother discovered it, so I asked my sister to come and catch me back and be punished. My sister felt sorry for my experience and gave me half of my spiritual power, so that I could run away quickly."
Lin Yuan said: "I understand. You used Lan He's skin to hide your identity in order to avoid hunting."
Su Shao said: "I have never had such a mind, you must believe me."
Seeing that she was not like a disguise, Lin Yuan said, "You helped my sister escape back then, and she was also a kind demon clan. She was not like someone who could do such evil things, but I really couldn't figure it out. If you were not a vicious person, how could you bear to peel your friend's skin and put it on yourself."
Su Shao said quietly: "After my sister gave me half of my spiritual power, Lan He was already terminally ill. Rui'er was too weak. Once she knew that her mother had passed away, she was afraid she would not last long. Lan He hoped that I would peel off her skin and live as her, one for Rui'er not to bear the pain of losing her mother, and the other for my safety."
Lin Yuan said: "You actually agreed?"
Su Shao said: "How can I do it? Lan He used the last bit of strength to peel off her skin with his own hands before his death. Rui'er is a half-demon. If she doesn't do this, she will definitely find out that I am not her mother based on the different breaths. My tribe members will also catch me back."
Lin Yuanqi said: "Didn't you just say that Fang Rui is a human?"
