Chapter 972 They've All Come (5)

In a moment, a white shadow separated from his body.

Moluo Guizun cried out in pain.

When that white shadow had completely separated from his body, Moluo Guizun was left with only a black shadow with red eyes, devoid of substance.

A pungent stench emanated from him.

At the same time, the white shadow landed steadily.

He stood with his back to Gu Qianying and the others.

His ethereal and immortal bearing was so familiar.

Gu Qianying and the others looked towards this person.

"You are...

Spiritual energy swirled around the white figure.

Before he could finish speaking.

The white shadow slowly turned around.

When Gu Qianying and the others saw the person's face clearly.

They were all stunned.

Gu Qianying was also taken aback.

Nangong Mo!"

Who else could it be but the handsome and familiar face of Nangong Mo?

"Ninth Imperial Uncle, it's you."

"A'Mo..."

"Ninth Prince..."

"Nangong Mo..."

Ouyang Qinglin and the others exclaimed in unison.

Gu Qianying stood frozen.

She stared intently at the man slowly walking towards her.

Tears streamed down her cheeks uncontrollably.

"Wife..."

The single word "wife" caused Gu Qianying's tears to flow even more.

At this moment...

Time seemed to stand still.

Gu Qianying's eyes were fixed only on the man before her, him alone.

All the moments they had spent together flashed through her mind.

Nangong Mo walked up to Gu Qianying.

It was a reunion for the young couple who had not seen each other for many days.

Meng Qinghua, Nangong Li, Du Chun, and Duan Xifeng, with their keen senses, took a step back.

Ouyang Qinglin, after glancing at Gu Qianying, also retreated a few steps.

They gave Gu Qianying and Nangong Mo space, not wanting to disturb them.

The moment Nangong Mo appeared, Duan Xifeng was the first to bring Xiao Yihao over.

Xiao Yihao had also not seen his father for a long time, and missing him was inevitable.

However, seeing that his mother and father seemed to have something to say, he became very well-behaved, quietly held by his uncle, Duan Xifeng, without a word.

The person they longed to see was now within reach.

The longing of these past few days was answered in this instant.

"Wife..."

Approaching, he embraced her, and Nangong Mo called her wife again.

Held tightly by Nangong Mo, Gu Qianying's tears fell like a broken string of pearls.

After an unknown amount of time, Gu Qianying's emotions calmed down, and she finally uttered, "Husband."

To Nangong Mo, his wife's voice was the most beautiful sound in the world.

"Wife, your husband misses you so much."

Only in front of Gu Qianying did Nangong Mo speak so tenderly.

For Gu Qianying, nothing brought her more joy than seeing her husband.

Her descending jade hand lifted, and she embraced him tightly as well.

The two held each other tightly before Ouyang Qinglin and the others.

Meng Qinghua, Duan Xifeng, Du Chun, Nangong Li, and the others all wore smiles.

They were all very happy to see Nangong Mo at this moment.

It was also at this moment that they did not want to disturb the couple who could finally embrace.

They were Gu Qianying's close friends, and also Nangong Mo's close friends. Over the years, they had all been very aware of how difficult things had been for this young couple, Gu Qianying and Nangong Mo.

They were even more aware of the hardships they had endured.

At this moment, no one spoke, even their breathing was kept low.

However... at this moment, a voice came from not far away.

"Lotus Emperor, it really is you? Hahaha, this venerable one always thought what Saint Lord Bai said was false, that Baili Su was just a mortal. This venerable one never expected that Baili Su's form was actually another aspect of the Lotus Emperor's reincarnation and tribulation."

"It seems that Lord Lotus Emperor truly has feelings for this disciple, Saint Lord Bai. Hahaha, the King of the Immortal Realm and the Emperor of the Demonic Realm, you two, one righteous and one evil, being able to love each other truly opens my eyes. However... in these Six Realms, the union of righteousness and evil is a great taboo of the Six Realms. Does Lord Lotus Emperor wish to bring ruin to the Six Realms?"

"To make the Immortal Realm cease to exist?"

The Moluo Guizun, having revealed his true form, laughed wildly in the hall.

Listening to his voice.

After helping Gu Qianying wipe away her tears, Nangong Mo hugged Xiao Yihao again, kissed his face, and handed him back to Duan Xifeng before turning around.

He looked coldly at Moluo Guizun.

"Moluo Guizun, it has been over a thousand years since this Lotus Emperor has seen you. I wonder how your father, who devoured your mother, died. Was it you who killed him, or was it your brother?"

A single sentence made Moluo Guizun extremely enraged.

But at this moment, he was merely a ball of black shadow, and his expression was unseen by anyone.

In the Moluo clan, Moluo Guizun's father was a disgrace to the Moluo family and a traitor to those who betrayed the Moluo family.

Back then, to protect himself, he devoured his wife, increased his cultivation, and tried to seize the position of Guizun.

However, such cold-blooded and ruthless behavior was witnessed by his twin sons.

They had personally watched how their father had devoured their mother.

Afterward, their father had even boasted that he would devour his pair of sons next.

In the Moluo clan, the blood, flesh, and even the souls of all Moluo clan members were a nourishing medicine for increasing cultivation for those within the Moluo family.

And in such a family, some people would take shortcuts, devouring the blood, flesh, and souls of those close to them.

But such people would be considered traitors by the Moluo clan, betrayers of the Moluo family.

And once the deeds of such people were revealed to the world, they would be abandoned by the Moluo family.

Therefore, when some people committed acts against their conscience, they would conceal them.

For this reason, on that day, Moluo Guizun's father ordered the loyal servants by his side to secretly kill all the servants in his mansion.

His two sons were also imprisoned under the guise of illness.

Eventually, the younger of the twin sons, driven by his hatred for his father, escaped from the prison and personally killed his heartless and beastly father.

Afterward, he voluntarily confessed and, in front of the entire clan, committed suicide by jumping off a cliff. Before doing so, he had also helped his elder brother gain a good reputation within the Moluo clan.

The position of Moluo Guizun ultimately fell to this elder brother.

However, many years later, the entire Moluo clan provoked the Immortal Realm and engaged in a great battle with the immortals of the Immortal Realm, resulting in the extermination of the entire clan.

Moluo Guizun, after abandoning his original form to save himself, escaped and infiltrated the Ten Thousand Layers of Hell, killed the King of Hell who governed it, and became the King of the Ten Thousand Layers of Hell.

"Lotus Emperor! This venerable one will kill you today!"

Enraged.

Moluo Guizun attacked Nangong Mo.

A mass of black mist surged towards Nangong Mo.

Within the black mist was a sword emitting a red glow.

"Be careful!"

Gu Qianying exclaimed.

Du Chun, Ouyang Qinglin, and the others also cried out.

As the few were about to step forward, they saw Nangong Mo flick his sleeve.

A stream of spiritual energy emitting a white light shot out from his palm.

Powerful spiritual energy swirled around him.

Gu Qianying, Du Chun, Ouyang Qinglin, and the others were all pushed back several meters by this spiritual energy.

As Gu Qianying was thrown back, Nangong Mo raised his palm and pulled her back, holding her in his embrace.

At the same time.

It was the confrontation between Moluo Guizun and the Lotus Emperor of the Immortal Realm.

It was also the clash between spiritual energy and demonic power.

Suddenly.

The sky changed, and the wind began to blow.

The large house also trembled and collapsed, tiles and wood chips flying wildly in the air.

Duan Xifeng tightly held Xiao Yihao, and together with Ouyang Qinglin, Meng Qinghua, and the others, they retreated several meters and all took cover.

The sharp sword emitting red light was instantly swallowed by the powerful spiritual energy.

The sword broke into two pieces and fell to the ground.

Nangong Mo's figure flashed rapidly, and he leaped up. As he turned, he struck swiftly.

When the sky returned to normal, and the tiles and wood chips began to fall, he grasped Moluo Guizun by the neck with one hand.

Beneath the black robe, although his substance was unseen, this was nothing to Nangong Mo.

Even without a physical form, he could still grasp the opponent's vital point.

His cold eyes were filled with murderous intent.

As the black mist dissipated, the surroundings, including the ghost arts and ghost flowers planted in the Ten Thousand Layers of Hell, vanished in an instant.

And those evil spirits imprisoned in the Ten Thousand Layers of Hell cried out in pain at this moment, instantly turning into nothingness and disappearing.

Among them were also some wronged spirits who had died unjustly. At this moment, their Yin energy was cleansed, their Yang energy was restored, they were reborn, and they left the Ten Thousand Layers of Hell.

With his life force grasped, Moluo Guizun could no longer struggle.
