Chapter 137

“Big Slave, go outside and don’t let anyone come in,” said Nian Nuer .

She ignored Mo Ruyan completely . Big Slave obeyed without saying anything . He went out, closed the door and stood guard . Nobody could come in anymore .

Nian Nuer grabbed the Bamboo Tree of Life .

“Put my brother on the bed,” she said looking at Mo Ruyan .

Mo Ruyan was stunned for a second but soon moved to do as she was asked . She understood this was important . Plus, the little girl called Mu Yi “brother”, even if she was a ghost, she wasn’t going to harm him . She didn’t waste anymore time .

She picked him up and carried him to the bed . She practiced martial arts so she was strong . Mu Yi wasn’t heavy at all . Nian Nuer followed behind her . Now and then, she looked at Mo Ruyan angrily . She didn’t like her because she thought Mu Yi was injured because of her .

She had forgotten that Mu Yi needed to go to Luoyang . She had also forgotten about Qu Yang . She thought that Mu Yi was injured because of Mo Ruyan . She was just a little girl after all .

Mo Ruyan didn’t know why, but she knew Nian Nuer didn’t like her . She didn’t plan to argue with a little girl, especially Mu Yi’s little sister, so she would just leave it alone .

Mo Ruyan put Mu Yi on the bed and moved away to give Nian Nuer space . Nian Nuer moved closer to the bed and looked at Mu Yi . She put one hand on Mu Yi’s third eye and the other on her third eye .

The Bamboo Tree of Life started to shine brightly . An emerald green light surrounded Mu Yi . The space started to distort . Nian Nuer’s body grew pale . After an hour, Nian Nuer who was floating halfway up in the air fell to the ground in exhaustion .

At that moment, Mu Yi looked like a mummy wrapped in the emerald light . The light entered his body as he breathed . Each time he breathed in a portion of the light, his body trembled and he frowned . He looked like he was slowly coming back to his senses .

Nian Nuer noticed and smiled . After that, she went back into the Bamboo Tree of Life . The glow surrounding it had weakened considerably . The Bamboo Tree of Life landed next to Mu Yi . It seemed as if they were both sound asleep .

Mo Ruyan saw that Mu Yi’s breath was stable now . She was relieved . She didn’t understand what had just happened, but she was exhausted too . She climbed onto the bed as well . She had only forced herself to stay awake until she was sure Mu Yi was fine .

Mu Yi was dreaming . Since he had started meditating, he never had any dreams . In the dream, he was young again . He was less than six years old . There was a woman who was gentle and soft . However, no matter how hard Mu Yi tried, he couldn’t see her face .

He had the impression it was his mother . In the dream, there was no father . His mother was a blurry silhouette . Not everything was logical in his dream .

When Mu Yi woke up the next day, his left arm felt numb . He turned his head to check it . Mo Ruyan was sleeping on his arm . Her hair was on his face and he could smell the scent of it .

Mu Yi woke her up when he moved . Mo Ruyan turned her head and rubbed her neck . It felt sore . She slowly opened her eyes and gradually, Mu Yi appeared in her field of vision .

“Ah!” she shouted .

She quickly stood up but her legs were still tired so she fell down again on top of Mu Yi this time . Mu Yi moaned in pain . He was still injured from the fight with Qu Yang .

“I’m sorry… I… I just…” Mo Ruyan started .

She used her hand to lift herself off of him . She blushed and didn’t dare look at Mu Yi .

“It’s alright . Thank you for yesterday . ” said Mu Yi .

He was lying in her bed . She had never slept in the bed but it was her room . She had also slept on the edge of the bed . She hadn’t had much space, which is why her legs hurt .

“Yesterday, I didn’t help you . Your little sister saved you . ” said Mo Ruyan .

She didn’t feel like she had done anything to help .

“Yes, I know . You also helped . Thank you,” said Mu Yi .

Even though he had lost consciousness the evening before, he hadn’t lost all of his senses . Whenever Nian Nuer did something, he was aware of it . The Bamboo Tree of Life was also his precious treasure . It was growing along with Nian Nuer . It was almost like a real living being .

There was an incredible strength in the Bamboo Tree of Life but Mu Yi didn’t want to absorb it . This time, he hadn’t had a choice . No matter what he did, he wouldn’t be able to give it back . He never could of thought Nian Nuer would give him some of the Bamboo Tree of Life’s strength .

Mu Yi had absorbed it instinctively . It had been beneficial to him . It had helped him recover and made him stronger . His vitality was also more immune to attacks .

It was complementary relationship . He gave and now he received . This time it was beneficial for him but not for Nian Nuer . The tree was still lackluster . Nian Nuer was still sleeping .

Mu Yi couldn’t couldn’t give the strength back even if he wanted .
