Chapter 2753: Chapter 971: Baili Mu (Part 1)
When the Soul-separation Beast charged forward, the opponent seemed to sense trouble and turned to flee. However, while another’s remnant soul might have a chance to escape, against a Soul-separation Beast, the chance of a remnant soul getting away is practically zero!
Soon, the Soul-separation Beast brought back the remnant soul that was attempting to escape. It considerately knew that its Master was curious about the identity of the remnant soul, so it didn’t immediately consume it. This remnant soul was not particularly significant to it; eating it or not didn’t matter, it didn’t care for this mouthful...
Mo Jiuli looked at the remnant soul hanging from the mouth of the Soul-separation Beast. Although not knowing how long it had been trapped here, it was clear that the opponent’s strength was formidable because its visage could still be discerned clearly; the soul body was quite solid, indicating strong Soul Power. No wonder it dared to ambush; it seemed to want to seize her body...
"Will you speak for yourself, or should I let Little Lizi take action? You can choose yourself, we have no patience!" Mo Jiuli said indifferently as she looked at the opponent.
"You... took my thing and are interrogating me for what? If you want to kill, just do it, stop the nonsense!" The opponent didn’t even glance at Mo Jiuli, responding coldly, his voice fitting his looks; it was a middle-aged uncle’s voice.
"Since you’re unwilling to speak, then Little Lizi will make a move; read all of his information!" Mo Jiuli, hearing his words, said without any leniency.
"Wait..." Before the Soul-separation Beast could act, the opponent hurriedly shouted.
"What do you want to know?" The opponent glared at Mo Jiuli and asked.
"I’m just curious, after all, encountering a remnant soul here would pique anyone’s curiosity! Besides, it’s rumored Little Lizi has been here for a long time; for a remnant soul to hide under its nose for so long indicates you don’t want to die, so determined that if there’s no story it wouldn’t make sense! That’s why I’m curious..." Mo Jiuli said calmly.
"It’s none of your business, what’s there to be curious about!" The opponent was clearly still unwilling to speak.
"Your indifference will make me lose patience!" Mo Jiuli looked at the opponent and said.
"Master, I..." The Soul-separation Beast held the opponent and said.
"Exactly, a grown man muttering like this! What’s there to fear by speaking up? You wouldn’t believe we know you, would you?" Xiaobai also commented disdainfully.
The opponent thought for a moment, then looked at Mo Jiuli and asked: "Where is this place?"
"This is the Secret Realm of the Cloud Underworld!" Mo Jiuli responded very cooperatively.
"Huh? Cloud Underworld Secret Realm? Where is that?" The opponent asked, full of doubt.
"It’s a Secret Realm of the Cloud Underworld, you wouldn’t possibly not know the Cloud Underworld, would you? Do you know the Cloud Peak?" Mo Jiuli looked at him and asked.
"Cloud Peak? I don’t know!" The opponent said.
"Then tell me, what’s your name, where are you from, why are you here?" Mo Jiuli looked at him and asked directly.
"I’m Baili Mu, this place is my Palace, I don’t remember anything else!" Baili Mu looked at Mo Jiuli and said.
"Don’t remember?" Mo Jiuli raised her brow upon hearing that, evidently sensing the opponent was lying. Having initially refused to speak and then halting upon hearing the Soul-separation Beast’s intent to conduct a Soul-searching, it was clear he was aware of its power.
Yet, his response was merely giving a name of uncertain truth, claiming not to remember anything else, was he treating her as a three-year-old child?
