Chapter 201 The Key to Victory
He called out her name with some emotion that he couldn't explain, but nothing else happened.
Jiang Tingwan was brought back to his senses by his shout, "Maybe, maybe the Cangyu Sect is rich and powerful, so this Guiyuan Pill is not that rare for them?"
Her words were both an answer to herself and an answer to Mu Yunzhong's previous question.
Jiang Tingwan was originally sitting on the ground to relax, but because of this incident, he had to get up and find something to do to comfort his disturbed heart.
Then she looked around, slowly got up and went to find some water to drink.
It was at this moment that Jiang Tingwan felt a cool breeze under his feet. He looked down and immediately shouted, "Where are my shoes?"
Mu Yunzhong's gaze also fell on her lower body, and he saw that her trouser legs were still rolled up, revealing two bare feet underneath her trouser legs.
"You didn't just lock me up and leave your shoes behind, did you?"
She turned around to question Mu Yunzhong, but saw that Mu Yunzhong's eyes were flickering, and it was obvious that he had just realized this.
My goodness, this is a waste of money.
She is so poor now that she only has this set of clothes and a pair of shoes. She would feel sad if she lost either one.
Jiang Tingwan cursed in his heart, but the person opposite raised his eyes and looked at him, as if to make amends, or to mock him.
"You can move around in this small space, so you don't need to wear shoes."
People will smile when they are speechless, and Jiang Tingwan fully verified this at this moment.
"Fine! If you don't want to wear it, then don't wear it!" She forced a forgiving smile and adjusted her attitude, smiling kindly and friendly, "You are the eldest brother after all. You have the final say."
When you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. Jiang Tingwan could only dust off the dust on his body and vent his anger.
Before Mu Yun could react to her description of himself, the next moment he saw her sitting next to him.
Receiving Mu Yunzhong's gaze, Jiang Tingwan spread his hands, stretched out his feet and complained, "I don't have any shoes, and you won't let me sit down!"
Her expression was natural, without any fear on her face. Even though she had just heard the conversation between him and Shen Zhui, she did not question her at all.
Seeing this, Mu Yun finally withdrew his gaze from Jiang Tingwan, a complex expression flashed across his eyes, and after a while he said, "You are not worried at all."
Hearing this, Jiang Tingwan's eyes also flashed, and he asked back: "What are you worried about? Worried about what you and Shen Zhui will do at the trial meeting?"
Jiang Tingwan turned his head to look at him.
Mu Yun finally turned his head again because of her words, "Shouldn't it be possible?"
Jiang Tingwan met his gaze and smiled, "I'm not Bai Wangshu, and I don't have the responsibility to slay demons and defend the Way. I'm only keeping a promise."
"Promise?" Mu Yun finally frowned.
Jiang Tingwan paused for a moment, looked at him and replied seriously, "I told you in the past that I would choose you unconditionally. I also promised you now that no matter what you want to do, I will stay by your side honestly. This is my promise."
Her words shocked Mu Yunzhong both physically and mentally. No one had ever said such words to him.
Her eyes were very bright, as bright as a star that one suddenly sees when walking alone at night. No matter which direction he walked, he could see them as long as he looked up.
A warm feeling gradually welled up in Mu Yunzhong's heart.
"No matter what I do, will you stay by my side?" he asked again in disbelief.
"Yes, no matter what you do, I will be by your side." Jiang Tingwan replied affirmatively.
"Why?" He frowned, extremely confused.
"Because I am the person who knows you best in this world, I always believe that you will make the right choice in the end. Not only me, but many people think so, Bai Wangshu also thinks so, so she chose to let me appear in front of you."
He stared at the person in front of him for a long time, and the look in his eyes became one of cautious temptation.
"Even if I have that Dustless Pearl in my body?"
"I said, it's not your fault. No one can regard you as a disaster for this reason."
"Even if I want to enter the Wuji Abyss?"
"With your current strength, you deserve to be among the top 100 immortal sects."
"Even if I collude with others to completely open the seal of Wujiyuan?"
"The Immortal Sect has been at ease for thousands of years. It's not a bad thing to let them learn to be prepared for danger in times of peace. Besides, the three major sects have been able to stand for thousands of years not just because of luck. They have the ability to deal with this crisis. All you need to do is do nothing and just be yourself."
She gently answered every question Mu Yunzhong had and addressed every concern he had.
He saw a light flickering in her eyes.
"Mu Yunzhong, let go of your guard, try to trust the people around you, do what you really want to do, not out of resentment, not out of fear, and don't become someone else's pawn. If someone wants to hurt you, I'm still standing in front of you."
When she said this, Jiang Tingwan's eyes were already blurred with tears. Her glowing eyes glanced towards the top of his head from time to time, waiting for a result.
She has said so much, why is there no response?
Is it because he hasn't performed for a long time that he has regressed? Or is it that the memory-reset version of Mu Yun has finally upgraded? Has his heart also become hardened?
That’s not possible. After all, she has 50% acting skills and 50% sincerity, and every point is real output.
So much so that at this moment, if someone suddenly asked her whether these words were acting or true feelings, she herself might not be able to tell the difference.
After staring for a long time, the wide-open eyes blinked instinctively, and the sparkling tears turned into crystal tears in an instant, falling vertically.
It was because of this tear that Mu Yunzhong's hand wanted to reach out involuntarily. It was also this reaction that made even he himself stunned.
He withdrew his hand and unconsciously clenched it. He could no longer look directly at the person in front of him, for fear that if he looked at her any longer, his heart would become even more confused.
He could only panic and look away, close his eyes, concentrate, adjust his breath, and suppress the pounding heartbeat.

933
The numbers above his head appeared again.
Jiang Tingwan saw the result and also saw his reaction at a glance.
She knew that this was a bigger gamble, and the key to victory lay in Mu Yunzhong's final choice.
She had to believe him, she had to believe him.
The more Mu Yunzhong avoided her gaze, the more confident and confident she became, because she knew that he was wavering...
