When a person is in a high-ranking position, their words carry the law.

Chapter 299 The Temptation of Great Freedom
“Four days ago, your son Yun Shu received the baptism of the Great Freedom and was killed by Bai Ze, leaving no trace of his body.”

"Three days ago, Yun Cang was sentenced to imprisonment for allegedly framing Mu Yaoguang, attacking the Martial Arts Association branch, and deliberately letting Yun Shu go."

"Then yesterday, Bai Ze, representing Dongxia, defeated Rhine Nios of the Western Alliance and Ekaterina of Ursus in the Yingzhou Secret Realm. He is now being lauded as a peerless genius comparable to Mu Yaoguang."

"And you are completely unaware, not even knowing that you will be exiled to the wasteland for twenty years."

A mocking voice entered the mirror world, causing Yun Jingming to suddenly look up and Lin Suying to rush out of the house.

"Who are you?" Lin Suyi asked coldly.

The beautiful woman's face was as cold as ice, but she was not overwhelmed by anger and hatred. Instead, she questioned the other party's identity.

"At this point, you still have the mind to ask who I am? It seems I underestimated you, Madam Yun," a mocking voice chuckled. "Or is it that Yun Shu's death isn't enough to enrage you?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Jingming's expression turned ferocious.

But Lin Suying maintained her cold and stern expression and said, "The prison under the jurisdiction of the law enforcement department has never been broken into. Unless you have extraordinary abilities, you must have entered through legitimate channels. Under the current circumstances, my husband and I cannot legally enter here."

The implication was clear: the other party harbored malicious intent and was trying to incite Yun Jingming and his wife to do something irrational so that they could launch a further attack.

"Clap clap-"

The sound of applause came from outside.

"I couldn't help but applaud the lady's composure,"

The other party praised him, saying, "But I must prove my innocence. I didn't come with malicious intent, but with goodwill, to point out a clear path for you two. If only you two are willing to offer your faith and bow your heads..."

"So you're just a lackey of Da Zizai!" Lin Suyi interrupted the other party, saying decisively, "Get lost. No matter how down on our luck my husband and I are, we will never stoop to kneeling at Da Zizai's feet."

"Your son is dead, you can just have another one. Do you think that will defeat an eight-star martial artist?"

Even if they are not as good as Mu Yaoguang, Lin Suying and Yun Jingming are still genuine eight-star martial artists.

They may be greedy and envious, but they still have the most basic steadfastness.

Even if they are banished to the wasteland for twenty years, they still have hundreds of years to live. As long as they are determined, they can make a comeback sooner or later.

If you bow down to the Great Freedom, then you're finished.

When the mind is eroded by the Great Freedom, it loses its self, which is tantamount to death.

"Is Madam afraid of losing herself?"

The other party chuckled, "Madam misunderstands. Losing oneself is the fate of the incompetent. Truly capable people can maintain their true selves even under the grace of great freedom. Of course, Madam may not believe my words, so let's consider it from another perspective. Give Bai Ze and Mu Yaoguang twenty years, where will they go?"

Even if Yun Jingming and his wife make a comeback twenty years later, what then? Will they be able to pose a threat to Bai Ze and Mu Yaoguang?
To put it bluntly, they might not even live for another twenty years.

Five or ten years, when Mu Yaoguang reaches the Heavenly Gate, and when Bai Ze becomes an eight-star martial artist, will Yun Jingming and his wife still be able to save their lives?
Of course, they could also take a gamble, betting that Bai Ze would perish halfway through, or that Mu Yaoguang would stop progressing.

"That's all I have to say. You two, think it over carefully."

As the other person spoke, they repeated the opening phrase, "How pitiful."

Lin Suying did not respond further, but simply pulled Yun Jingming into the wooden house.

Once the door closed, Lin Suying's cold face gradually contorted.

"How dare you say I'm pitiful!"

At this moment, Lin Suying's first thought wasn't about Yun Shu's death, but rather that she was pitiful. She had used the word "pitiful" before, but that was when she was referring to Mu Yaoguang.

She used to say that Mu Yaoguang was pitiful, but now it's her turn to be pitiful. The contrast between these two is driving Lin Suyi almost crazy.

Thinking of Mu Yaoguang naturally brought to mind why he had fallen to this state, as well as the deaths of Yun Shu and Yun Yan.

"Bitch! Bitch! Bitch!"

She gritted her teeth, her face contorted like a demon.

"And that bastard Bai Ze, who dared to kill my son, I'll make you wish you were dead sooner or later."

······
······
"Ah-"

Bai Ze sneezed, glanced sideways at Luo Shui beside him, and said, "Ah Shui, are you cursing me in your heart? I can sense it. Also, if you keep looking at me like that, I'll get shy."

At this moment, Bai Ze was lying on a chair, shirtless, with a soft, boneless hand pressing on his chest.

Beside her, Luo Shui stared intently at Bai Ze with a tense expression.

Because the hand pressing on Bai Ze's chest belonged to Mu Yaoguang.

"Shut up!"

Luo Shui tried to be fierce with him, but when she saw the penetrating wound on Bai Ze's chest, she lowered her voice and snorted, "Considering you're injured, I'll spare your life this time. Hurry up and thank Lord Luo Shui for his great kindness?"

While practicing her skills on the deck, Luo Shui was teased by Bai Ze. She was about to lose her temper, but when she saw Bai Ze's shocking wounds, she screamed and called for Mu Yaoguang.

And then it became like this.

At this moment, countless nanounits were active within Bai Ze's wounds, repairing the damage to Bai Ze's blood vessels and heart meridians under Mu Yaoguang's guidance.

This was originally the job of Lu Qiudi, the dean of the medical school, but Mu Yaoguang was worried and took it on her own initiative.

The Tai Su Wan Xiang Armor itself has the ability to heal wounds, and Mu Yaoguang has already mastered the armor to the point of being indistinguishable from one another, so there is no need to worry about any accidents.

"hehe,"

Bai Ze scoffed at Luo Shui's words, saying, "Even if I'm severely injured and can't get up, I, Bai Ze, am still invincible in the world! Ouch, ouch, ouch—be gentle! Be gentle!"

"If you know it hurts, then behave yourself."

Mu Yaoguang loosened her hand slightly, looked at Bai Ze's tired face, and said, "Your mental energy is so severely depleted that you can't even recover from your injuries, yet you're still spouting nonsense here."

Mu Yaoguang already knew some of the basics of Bai Ze's abilities and knew that his awakened abilities required the consumption of mental energy to use.

Previously, Bai Ze attacked Yun Shu under the guise of the Black-Robed Guest, and suffered a backlash from repeatedly using the Ascension Intent, but was later found to be completely unharmed.

Knowing that Bai Ze was actually the Black-Robed Man, Mu Yaoguang and Luo Shui could naturally guess that Bai Ze possessed the ability of super-fast regeneration.

Therefore, Mu Yaoguang refused Lu Qiudi's offer and chose to treat Bai Ze herself to avoid Lu Qiudi noticing anything amiss.

Hmm... It's definitely not because I'm worried about Bai Ze's injuries.

As Mu Yaoguang thought this, she unconsciously smoothed her long hair on the side of her face with her other hand and tucked the strands behind her ear.

Luo Shui, watching this scene from the side, felt as if the sky was about to fall.
