Chapter 158 Past Life 12 (Xie Yaochuan's PerspectiveMu Yunshang)
Three years passed in the blink of an eye, but too many heartbreaking things happened during these three years: Mu Yunchen mysteriously disappeared, Madam Mu died of illness, the old lady passed away, Mu Yunchao failed in peace negotiations and ultimately died tragically at the hands of the Sand Kingdom...
All sorts of misfortunes followed one after another.
The Moon Kingdom has fallen.
Mu Yunshang was ill and Xie Yaochuan arranged for her to recuperate in a relatively safe place, but Xie Yaochuan resolutely went to the capital.
Despite knowing that the journey was fraught with danger, no one showed any sign of backing down.
Mu Yunshang slowly walked to the wall, took down the long sword hanging on the wall, and gently stroked the blade.
She was also a Yue Kingdom citizen, a descendant of the Mu and An families. How could a descendant of a prestigious military family be afraid of death?
Mu Yunshang opened the cabinet, took out all the gold inside and placed it on the table in the room. She then left enough money for her maid to live on before mounting her horse and galloping towards the capital.
When Mu Yunshang arrived in the capital, she saw flames soaring into the sky. The once impregnable city gates had been breached by the enemy, and there was no sound of fighting or shouting inside the city. Instead, there was only a deathly silence.
Mu Yunshang looked up at the raging flames and the dilapidated city gate, her heart filled with grief.
With heavy steps, she slowly walked through the once bustling but now devastated streets and alleys, heading step by step toward the palace.
When Mu Yunshang saw the corpses lying haphazardly on the ground, she felt dizzy and her vision suddenly went black. It took her a long time to recover before she slowly walked in.
Mu Yunshang carefully turned over each of the gruesome corpses lying haphazardly on the ground. Her once delicate, smooth, and well-maintained hands were now covered in blood and filth, and her nails were curled outwards from the excessive force, causing her unbearable pain. However, she was completely unaware of this and continued to mechanically repeat the action as if she never tired.
Finally, after sifting through countless corpses, she spotted a body clutching a long whip. Her eyes lit up instantly, then her legs gave way, and she knelt on the ground. Trembling, she reached out her right hand and gently wiped the blood from his face with her sleeve, gazing intently at the distinctive beauty mark at the corner of his eye.
She seems to be...
I really do know what he looks like now...
Mu Yunshang took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, then tore off a piece of her clothing and carefully wrapped it around his gruesome wounds. Each wrap was done with extreme care, as if afraid of hurting him at the slightest mistake.
"Zixun, you must be in a lot of pain?" Mu Yunshang asked softly, her eyes full of pity.
"Being with me has made you suffer too much and feel wronged too much... It's all my fault."
After saying that, tears streamed down her face like beads from a broken string.
"If there is an afterlife, please don't look for me again. I'm the one who dragged you down..." Mu Yunshang used all her strength to drag him to a relatively clean and tidy place, gently and meticulously wiping away the remaining bloodstains on his body.
After doing all this, Mu Yunshang slowly straightened up, her gaze fixed on the distant place where the noise still emanated.
She gripped the long sword tightly in her hand and walked forward step by step.
When Mu Yunshang saw Yunnan's face being trampled underfoot, the last thread in her mind finally snapped.
Without hesitation, he brandished his knife and lunged straight at the man who had trampled Yunnan.
After slaying dozens of enemies, Mu Yunshang vigorously wiped the blood from her cheek with the back of her left hand and stared coldly at the group of people dressed in strange clothes in front of her.
"Are you from the Mu family?" The man with the long braid wiped the blood splattered on his face, a slight smile playing on his lips, and chuckled softly, "The An family's swordsmanship is indeed exquisite."
"Unfortunately, it all comes to an end here." With that, the man raised his hand and waved it gently.
Mu Yunshang quickly lifted a corpse and held it in front of her, narrowly avoiding the barrage of arrows that came flying at her.
Nevertheless, she was inevitably struck by several arrows.
Mu Yunshang coughed violently, spitting out a mouthful of blood, but she seemed oblivious. She resolutely pulled the arrows out of her body, as if she felt no pain at all, and charged towards them again with her long sword in hand.
She hasn't fully recovered since her miscarriage.
And they've been fighting these warriors who fought their way up from the battlefield until now.
It has long been a spent force.
Mu Yunshang was hit by dozens more arrows, and fell backward off the city wall.
Xie Yaochuan's hand, which was in mid-air, instinctively tried to grab her, but it passed right through her body.
In the blink of an eye, it was time when Mu Yunshang was a child again.
Five-year-old Mu Yunshang, dressed in an exquisite dress, looked calmly at the group of people bullying little Xie Yaochuan.
After standing still for a moment, she turned around and found her younger brother, Mu Yunchao, who was also studying at the junior college. "There are people bullying a child over there. He looks very pitiful. Go and protect him."
Mu Yunchao always listened to his older sister.
He felt that this older sister was simply a goddess descended from heaven.
However, by the age of five, he had already mastered the Four Books and Five Classics, and was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. Every move he made was in the style of a master.
He has always admired strength and regarded his older sister as a role model in life.
"There's no need to tell him that I sent you. Just treat him as a friend."
Mu Yunchao nodded seriously, "Okay."
The older sister never says anything wrong.
Mu Yunchao strode forward, grabbed the man's wrist, his eyes as cold as ice, stared straight at them, and said in a chilling tone, "How dare you bully your classmates like this in the National Academy? Do you not want to continue your studies?"
"Mu... Mu Yunchao?" The group of people were terrified, their faces turned ashen, and they involuntarily retreated.
Mu Yunchao is the eldest son of the Mu family, with a prominent status and immense power. No one dares to easily provoke the eldest son of the Mu family, otherwise they will inevitably bring endless trouble.
After the person left, Mu Yunchao turned his gaze to Xie Yaochuan, slowly extended his right hand, and asked with concern, "Are you alright?"
Xie Yaochuan stared at him blankly, a strange feeling welling up inside him, as if something was amiss. However, he didn't dwell on it, simply nodding slightly and whispering, "Thank you."
As he spoke, he appeared somewhat reserved, taking a slight step back and not shaking hands with Mu Yunchao.
Mu Yunshang stood at a distance, quietly witnessing everything before her. Then, she turned gracefully and left with light steps.
She was a reborn person. After her rebirth, she recounted her past life to others many times, but each time, the others listened as if they had not heard and showed no reaction.
