Chapter 216 Fighting
216 Battle of Wits
Those memories, once buried deep in his heart, surfaced one by one, yet no matter how hard he tried to search, he couldn't find the key clues to unravel the mystery. Everything seemed shrouded in a thick fog, making it difficult to see the truth.
At this moment, Mo Wenchen knew that he urgently needed to obtain more information, only in this way could he possibly see the light at the end of the tunnel.
However, the current situation clearly does not allow him to act rashly, so he can only choose to remain still for the time being, silently observe the further development of the situation, and wait for the right opportunity to take action.
Listening to their fierce battle of wits, Mo Wenchen's heart was filled with deep helplessness and bitterness.
He couldn't help but sigh inwardly, realizing that he had become a tool in their power struggle, and the instigator was none other than his unpredictable wife.
Mo Wenchen really couldn't understand how big his wife's heart was.
How could they be so relaxed and carefree, as if they were completely detached from everything?
Looking at her calm and composed demeanor, Mo Wenchen really didn't know how to describe her.
Especially when he discovered that his wife not only showed no sign of nervousness, but instead began to gloat, he felt both angry and amused, utterly at a loss for words.
Mo Wenchen's feelings were very complicated at this moment. On the one hand, he was unsure whether he should praise his wife for her extraordinary open-mindedness; on the other hand, seeing his wife's trust in him, a faint sense of joy rose in his heart.
However, at the same time, an indescribable sense of depression quietly welled up in my heart.
Because he knew that this meant his wife's feelings for him might not be that deep, or at least not enough to cause her too much worry or concern.
Although Mo Wenchen could sense that his wife had a certain degree of possessiveness towards him, he couldn't be sure how much genuine love was contained within that possessiveness.
This uncertainty, like a fog, shrouded his mind, making it difficult for him to see the truth.
Even so, a ripple of relief involuntarily stirred in Mo Wenchen's heart.
After all, after so many ups and downs, he was finally able to confirm one thing—in the deep, still unfathomable heart of his wife, he still held a small corner of her heart.
Although it was just a tiny space, it was like a beacon in the darkness for Mo Wenchen, giving him endless warmth and hope.
"Host!" Xiao Ba's voice suddenly rang in Mo Wenchen's mind, carrying a hint of helplessness and sorrow.
However, Chu Jiuyue did not respond to it, seemingly already used to Xiao Ba's occasional complaints.
Xiao Ba didn't take it to heart and continued muttering to itself, "Our host is really causing us a lot of trouble! Sigh, but what can we do? It's just my bad luck to have such a host."
Actually, upon closer reflection, aside from being somewhat lazy in certain specific matters, this host is quite outstanding in other aspects.
Xiaoba comforted himself in this way while trying hard to convince himself to accept this reality.
Gradually, it seemed to have really succeeded, and the furrowed brows gradually relaxed.
"Alright, alright, I know! I'll observe them carefully when they arrive. Right now, the most important thing is to get rid of this troublesome Qi user as soon as possible. Humph, these guys are always causing me trouble. Can't they just be straightforward? If it's really impossible, we can just kill them and find a new Qi user to replace them. Why go through all this trouble?" Chu Jiuyue thought indignantly.
【…】
Ha ha.
If things were really that easy to solve, then what would we need you for, host?
Can't Heaven take action itself?
It is precisely because of certain limitations that the Way of Heaven is constrained in many ways, making it difficult to act as it pleases.
That is why it has to look around for suitable partners and discuss cooperation terms with them.
Otherwise, how could those old fogies in the Heavenly Dao, who are so stingy and miserly, give away benefits so easily?
Having finally seized such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, of course we must find a way to make full use of it! Only a fool would let such a golden opportunity slip by!
Unfortunately, their host seems to be somewhat powerless, lazy, and lethargic.
[Host, you must understand that the Heavenly Dao is now subject to numerous restrictions; it can't do whatever it wants. After all, the fate of this world isn't entirely within its control. That's why it had no choice but to seek cooperation with us.]
【…】
Therefore,
Therefore, hearing the host's obvious impatience, Xiao Ba felt helpless, but couldn't come up with any effective way to deal with it.
Ultimately, it's all because this Heavenly Dao is too useless; no one could have imagined that this world had already reached the brink of collapse and destruction.
In that seemingly ordinary and inconspicuous little world, who could have imagined that so many mysterious and unknown forces would be attracted here!
Even Xiao Ba, who is usually very knowledgeable, couldn't help but show a deep look of shock on his face at this moment.
What exactly is it that has such a huge attraction?
This is really unbelievable.
"Host, if you choose to do this, there will be many benefits!" Xiao Ba said cautiously, his voice gradually becoming weaker as he spoke, until it was almost inaudible.
The host's already narrow eyes narrowed slightly, revealing an unfathomable light.
Mo Wenchen listened quietly to the intermittent conversation between Xiao Ba and Chu Jiuyue, and the shock in his heart surged like a tide, wave after wave.
He could never have imagined that so many unknown and powerful forces were lurking behind the world he lived in.
It should be noted that the Mo family has been passed down through generations, experiencing countless trials and tribulations, and naturally encountered similar mysterious forces during this time.
However, judging from the information revealed by Xiao Ba today, the power possessed by the Mo family is merely a drop in the ocean compared to the vast and boundless world, and is not worth mentioning.
Clearly, there are still countless unknowns in this vast universe waiting for people to explore and discover.
Gazing at the beautiful figure ahead, Mo Wenchen's eyes lingered for a long time, and a wave of emotion welled up in his heart.
He secretly rejoiced at his good luck; otherwise, how could he have met this woman with such powerful fortune?
She was the partner he had chosen for this life—Chu Jiuyue, the legendary master of destiny.
Looking back on everything, Mo Wenchen felt endless gratitude for his mother's wise choice.
If he had stubbornly opposed it back then, he would probably have missed this blessed marriage and would never have known those amazing "secrets".
This seemingly ordinary world is actually full of countless unknowns and mysteries.
Every inconspicuous corner may conceal powerful forces unknown to ordinary people, as well as captivating legendary stories.
At this moment, Mo Wenchen deeply realized that the world he had been living in was far more complex than he had ever imagined.
He himself is perhaps nothing more than an insignificant speck of dust in this vast and boundless world.
Mo Wenchen slowly closed his eyes and fell into deep thought.
He began to question his own destiny: was it truly under his control?
Or perhaps there are some unseen and intangible mysterious forces manipulating everything in the dark?
These questions surged into his mind like a tide, causing ripples to spread across his once calm heart.
However, at the same time, a strong curiosity arose in his heart, driving him to bravely explore the truth hidden behind this world and unveil the mysterious veil shrouding the surface phenomena.
He slowly raised his head, his gaze fixed on the distance, a strong sense of awareness rising within him: everything he had experienced, every choice he had made, seemed to be inextricably linked to the fate of the entire world.
This feeling grew clearer and heavier, making Mo Wenchen realize that he could no longer stand idly by and wait passively.
Mo Wenchen clenched his fists, silently telling himself that he had to take immediate action.
He knew that he could never find the answer to the problem by simply relying on wishful thinking, let alone uncover the truth hidden behind the layers of mystery.
So he calmed down, carefully considered the situation, and began to formulate a detailed action plan.
He began searching everywhere for clues, leaving no stone unturned.
He recorded and analyzed everything, from ancient documents and oral legends to seemingly insignificant yet mysterious details.
And so, Mo Wenchen took one step at a time as he approached the unknown truth.
However, he knew very well that this journey was destined to be long and arduous.
Along the way, he may encounter countless unimaginable difficulties and challenges, but he has already made up his mind never to back down.
For Mo Wenchen, he was filled with curiosity and a desire to explore the world, and at the same time, he was eager to take control of his own destiny and that of his loved ones.
In particular, when he thought of his wife, Chu Jiuyue, his desire to become powerful burned even more fiercely, like a raging fire.
He didn't want to be helpless and watch his wife face danger, nor did he want to regret not having the ability to protect her after the tragedy occurred.
Therefore, at this moment, Mo Wenchen was more eager than ever to obtain immense power.
Only in this way can he not only protect Chu Jiuyue when the crisis truly arrives, but also fight alongside her and face the storm together.
Chu Jiuyue was an extremely intelligent woman, and she easily noticed the gaze that Mo Wenchen was casting.
However, despite her keen intellect, she was still unable to discern his deepest, most secret thoughts.
Perhaps for some inexplicable reason, she decided not to delve into the matter further, but instead silently stayed by her mother's side, leisurely immersing herself in this peaceful and serene atmosphere.
Chu Jiuyue's heart was already filled with gratitude for the Mo family.
It was this family that, like a guiding light, generously provided her with a warm harbor as she experienced the full spectrum of life's joys and sorrows and weathered many storms.
Here, she was able to temporarily set aside her weariness and worries, and find a paradise where her soul could rest.
She knew that behind the light in Mo Wenchen's deep eyes lay a complex mix of emotions.
However, at this moment, she would rather keep this veil of mystery intact, since the time was not yet ripe.
At the same time, Mo's father's eyes, filled with intense paternal love, were fixed on his son beside him. His heart was churning with a mix of emotions. His gaze revealed not only deep concern and worry for his son, but also boundless hope and expectation for the future.
He knew all too well that his son Mo Wenchen's road to recovery was fraught with thorns and difficulties.
However, even the smallest step forward is like a ray of warm sunshine piercing through layers of dark clouds and falling into his weathered heart, bringing him great comfort and satisfaction.
Mo Wenchen's gradual recovery has significance for the entire vast Mo family, far beyond the simple joy of an ordinary family celebrating a happy event.
It was more like a ray of dawn, illuminating the long-dim future of the entire family and carrying the family's earnest hope for revival.
Looking back, since that sudden and enormous upheaval, every little thing in life seems to have become a fleeting, illusory dream.
He had almost despaired, believing that his son would never recover, and that deep helplessness and pain almost consumed him completely.
However, fate always likes to surprise people when they least expect it.
Just when he was almost disheartened, he witnessed a miracle unfold.
This series of dramatic changes stirred up a complex and turbulent emotional wave within him.
It evoked both the joy and excitement of rekindled hope and a deep sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, deep emotion) about the hardships of the past.
At the same time, he felt an endless sense of gratitude towards his daughter-in-law, Chu Jiuyue.
He often thought to himself that if it weren't for Chu Jiuyue's unwavering determination and tireless dedication, Mo Wenchen would probably have been trapped in those dark and hopeless days forever.
It was because of Chu Jiuyue's courageous act that the Mo family was prevented from falling into an abyss of no return.
