Li Ao glanced at Yang Xu. Although he didn't think it was possible for Li Shuyu to recover in the future, he didn't want Mu Wanxuan's mood to be affected by Shuyu's incident, so he nodded in agreement. "Your brother is right, the lady will recover one day! It's just a matter of time!"

Mu Wanxuan touched the knocked head, lowered her eyes, trembling her eyelashes, and whispered: "Really...really..."

"Of course it's true, brother, I promise you." He put one hand behind his back and patted his chest with the other, looking very confident.

Mu Wanxuan raised her eyes and stared at Yang Xu's confident look.

"Brother...actually...you don't have to comfort me...I just...heard clearly what Mr. Xiao said." Mu Wanxuan glanced to the side, not daring to look directly into Yang Xu's eyes, and responded timidly.

"Silly girl, since you heard what Brother Xiao said clearly, you should also hear what he said. Only when Li Shuyu's realm surpasses Dugu Mu's realm when he cast the spell, can the shackles of his consciousness be broken, right? !”

"But...he also said that it is almost impossible!" Mu Wanxuan naturally heard this sentence. She raised her head and said weakly: "Li Shuyu now has no sense of autonomy and cannot practice!"

"He just said it's almost impossible, not absolutely impossible. That means we still have a chance to restore her sanity." Yang Xu had a smile on his lips, the sunset shining on his smile, and his face was full of spring breeze.

Mu Wanxuan stared at the smile on his face in a daze, her clear eyes reflecting the sunlight on Yang Xu's face, shining brightly. She didn't know why, but her brother's smile actually gave her a sense of confidence that came from nowhere. It seemed like he really had a solution.

Although she couldn't explain the source of this confidence, she was much more confident than before.

Yang Xu continued, "Since we have the opportunity, let's do our best and work together in this direction. One day, we will awaken Li Shuyu's sanity!"

"However, this requires the joint efforts of you and me! Are you confident?" Yang Xu's tone remained calm, giving people an indescribable sense of peace of mind.

"Yes!" Mu Wanxuan nodded gently, seemingly infected by Yang Xu's open-minded attitude, and her slender eyebrows stretched a lot.

Li Ao saw that the lady's friend was in a better mood, and he felt relieved at the moment.

Alas~ It’s just...my own words...

Li Ao glanced lightly into the distance without saying anything, his eyes full of sadness.

"Uncle Li..." Mu Wanxuan seemed to see what was on Li Ao's mind. She asked with some worry, "Uncle Li, how are you going to explain to Uncle Li Gushu about Shuyu..."

Li Gushu is Li Shuyu's father and the head of the Li family. He treats Li Shuyu very well and values ​​her daughter very much. If Li Gushu knows about this, Uncle Li will inevitably be punished.

Li Ao raised his eyes and glanced at the sky, sighed, and said in a gloomy tone, "I plan to tell the truth."

"I, Li Ao, neglected my duties and did not protect me well, causing the young lady to be cursed by the thief. I cannot escape this responsibility."

"If I had observed more carefully, maybe the lady wouldn't have..."

"Uncle Li, don't say that," Mu Wanxuan interrupted him and consoled him in a gentle tone, "Dugu Mu's move is too subtle, silent, and hard to guard against. It is really difficult to counterattack. The blame is on Dugu Mu. Such a villain uses such despicable methods, no wonder Uncle Li!"

Yang Xu on the side raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and he suddenly became curious about the human curse.

This method is so hidden, what are the limitations?

Yang Xu touched his chin, wondering whether he should take Dugu Mu's space ring away later?

Damn it, I’m actually thinking about it?

What are you hesitating about?

Just take it directly!

Who would have trouble with money?

Moreover, there may be a curse inside the ring, and this curse may be of great use to me in the future.

As for whether this method is evil, it depends on the person who uses it.

In Yang Xu's view, the cultivation method does not distinguish between good and evil, only people can distinguish between good and evil.

Thinking of this, Yang Xu suddenly became clear-minded and no longer had any psychological burden at all. After saying hello to Mu Wanxuan and the others, he went to search for Dugu Mu's body.

Dugu Mu's headless corpse was lying on the side of the street in plain sight. Pedestrians passing by noticed it, and at most they just glanced at the headless corpse and continued on their way. No one would care about a dead person. .

In Aoyang City and even the entire Starfall Continent, death has become commonplace. Although in some areas where there are legal restrictions, killing is considered a crime and punishable, and in serious cases, it may be punished by death.

However, if you can prove that your killing was motivated by legitimate reasons such as hatred or self-defense, then your behavior is not illegal and you will not be punished.

Even if you are not acting in self-defense, as long as the circumstances are not too serious, you may choose to pay a fine. Once you've made the payment, you're free as if nothing happened, with almost no real impact on you.

This has also led to frequent deaths in most city-states on the continent, so much so that people are accustomed to the appearance of corpses, or even feel nothing about them. Even after they found the body, they didn't bother to report it to law enforcement.

At this time, Yang Xu had also pulled off the space ring on Dugu Mu's index finger.

The surface of this silver ring is simple, without any gorgeous decoration, only some seemingly regular and elegant wavy patterns. With a thought in his mind, Yang Xu used his spiritual thoughts to erase the mark of Dugu Mu's soul in the ring. Afterwards, he did a little exploration, and in just a moment, he completely understood all the items in the ring.

There are copper coins, countless silver coins, tens of thousands of low-level spiritual stones, thousands of intermediate spiritual stones, and more than a hundred high-level spiritual stones. In addition, there are several evil-looking techniques inside. , martial arts, spells, etc.; there is also a long sword weapon at the level of the Soul Realm; several formations of unknown purpose, some talismans for escape, defense, or attack, and some miscellaneous objects.

Yang Xu searched inside for a long time. He could even find women's obscene clothes, but he couldn't find any trace of the human curse inside.

Where has this Dugu Muzang gone?

Yang Xu touched his chin in confusion.

etc! what is that?

Yang Xu suddenly noticed a puppet in the center of the storage space, with a blood-red word "puppet" written on the front center of its body.

Yang Xu immediately guessed that this object might be related to the human puppet curse, so he took it out.

He put it in his hand and looked at it carefully. He could hold the doll in one hand. It was so light that you could hardly feel its weight. It was brown in color and was covered with symbols that were not dense but looked very complicated. Yang Xu couldn't understand the text no matter how he read it.

Yang Xu tried to use his spiritual sense to investigate, but found that there was nothing special about this doll. No matter how he looked at it, it just looked like an ordinary humanoid doll.
