Chapter 8 Confrontation

        "Have you said enough?"


  Mo Yanliang snapped. Although these people were not talking about him when they mentioned Mo Yunqing, there's no different from saying it's him.


  Mo Yanliang's voice was quite loud. In addition, he had always given people the impression of being mild-mannered. Even after he put Peacock Fairy and Kuimu Fairy into the Seven Treasures Gourd, he had never spoken so loudly, so his voice immediately attracted everyone's attention.


  Xie Baichen frowned slightly. He loved his little disciple and didn't want anyone to bully him, but... he couldn't let him bully others at will and develop a spoiled character. What's more, there were so many eyes watching in the Immortal Palace. If he was unfair, how could he convince them?


  "Yun Qing, kneel down!"


  It's natural for a master to discipline his disciple. Xie Baichen didn't think there's anything wrong with his actions, but he misjudged the current situation and the rift between him and his young apprentice.


  Mo Yanliang didn't know whether Xie Baichen really oblivious or was pretending to be oblivious to the fact that Mo Yunqing was bullied, but no matter whether it was true or false, he felt that he had to tear off this layered mask and lay everything out in the open.


  He looked at Xie Baichen with cold eyes: "Why should I kneel?"


  Xie Baichen frowned even more. Before he could speak, Kuimu Fairy shouted anxiously, "Presumptuous! Mo Yunqing, even now you dare to disobey the order of the Immortal Lord?"


  "Orders? Master, you are not fair in your dealings, so you just rely on orders?"


  Mo Yanliang and Xie Baichen looked at each other, their eyes were frank and honest without any avoidance, with a hint of coldness.


  "You are in the Immortal Lord's Palace, obviously you must obey the Immortal Lord's orders. As a disciple, of course you must obey the master's orders. Mo Yunqing, you..."


  "Kuimu Fairy, let Yun Qing speak."


  It was rare for Xie Baichen to interrupt others, which made Kuimu Fairy realized that the Immortal Lord was angry at his interruption.


  He glared at Mo Yunqing fiercely. He couldn't figure out what's wrong with Mo Yunqing, he spoke daringly and even dared to disclose everything in front of the Immortal Lord...


  Kuimu Fairy had a bad premonition, and he wanted to cover Mo Yunqing's mouth to stop him from saying more, but the Immortal King was in front of him, so he didn't dare to act presumptuous.


  The Peacock Fairy next to her was obviously thinking the same thing, and her beautiful big eyes starting to lose focus.


  Xie Baichen didn't pay any attention to the people in his Immortal Lord Palace. He only looked at his little disciple, with disappointment and sadness in his tone: "Yun Qing, master didn't expect you have so much resentment in your heart... Okay, how did master treat you that make you feel unfair and dissatisfied?"


  "Okay, since Master wants to hear it, then I'll tell you. Master, as soon as you open your mouth, you accused me of killing people in vain, taking my anger out on them, and then taking back what belongs to me, and releasing these two immortal officials without permission. Master, have you ever asked for my consent and opinion?"


  Xie Baichen moved his beautiful lips, and the white-robed immortal seemed to want to say something, but Mo Yanliang didn't give him a chance to speak, and continued: "Master, you would say this and do this. Didn't you make a judgment from the beginning? You don't believe me, you convict me, and think I did something wrong. You didn't even think about understanding the situation before drawing a conclusion, right?"


  "I...but you did put Peacock Fairy and Kuimu Fairy into the Seven Treasures Gourd, and all the little fairies in the Immortal King Palace..."


  Xie Baichen suddenly stopped talking here. He looked at the little fairies who were kneeling together with some disbelief. They did not say much and just asked him to ask his little disciple. After learning that the little disciple had put both Peacock Fairy and Kuimu Fairy into the Seven Treasures Gourd, he jumped to the conclusion. Coupled with the crying of the Peacock Fairy and Kuimu Fairy, he further confirmed his own thoughts.


  Did he really wrongly accuse his little disciple, or was there... some misunderstanding here?


  Seeing Xie Baichen's doubtful and conflicted look, Mo Yanliang just felt speechless.


  Xie Baichen, the Immortal Lord of Bailing, is indeed a well-known figure in this world of books.


  He was a very famous name in the entire Heavenly realm and even in the six realms.


  But even such an Immortal Lord is very soft-hearted. He would doubt his apprentice because of the words of his subordinate officials, and he would also doubt his subordinates because of what he just said...


        Have to say, it's very tiring to get along with such people.


  Mo Yanliang is a person who finds it difficult to trust others, but once he trusts someone, he will give them all his trust instead of always being skeptical, which is very hurtful.


  Of course, if the trust he gave was betrayed, he would never trust that person again.


  It was precisely because of this that Mo Yanliang was particularly upset with Xie Baichen.


  He had only been here for a short time, he and Xie Baichen did not have much of a master-disciple relationship. He was lost for words when reading the novel, and annoyed after actually meeting the person.


  Mo Yanliang felt that he was not a character in a melodramatic novel. He had a mouth, so he had to speak clearly.


  "Yes, I put them into the Seven Treasures Gourd. I wanted them to die. But Master, do you know why I did this?"


  Xie Baichen shook his head blankly. He wanted to say that no matter what Peacock Fairy and Kuimu Fairy did, they should have discussed it carefully instead of thinking of killing people from the beginning. But seeing the increasingly cold expression on Mo Yanliang's face, he finally did not say it out loud, but continued to listen to Mo Yanliang.


  Mo Yanliang obviously didn't think about asking Xie Baichen to reply, so he continued what he said before, "Because they have been bullying me. They look down on me, insult me, and only give me one meal a day or even one meal every few days. The good things you left for me will be snatched away by them, just like the elixir you gave me this time to nourish my body. I gave them a chance to give it back to me, but they didn't, so I had to take it back myself."


  "How is this possible?"


  Xie Baichen's first reaction was disbelief. He looked at Peacock Fairy and Kuimu Fairy, his voice a little unsteady: "Is what Yun Qing said true?"


  "How is this possible? Immortal Lord, you can't just listen to Mo Yunqing's nonsense! When have we ever bullied him? Not giving him food is an unfounded accusation!"


  "Yes, Immortal Lord, we have never done anything to bully Mo Yunqing. He has always relied on being your only disciple to boss us around. It's just that we are more principled, so he doesn't like us and wants to throw dirty water on us!"


  Both Peacock Fairy and Kuimu Fairy knew that they must not admit to this matter and would refuse to confess even if beaten to death.


  Mo Yunqing only has one mouth. Will the Immortal Lord prefer to believe him or all the immortals in the entire Immortal Palace?


  When Mo Yanliang said that just now, Xie Baichen believed it a little. He felt that his young disciple would not speak nonsense like that.


  But seeing the Peacock Fairy and Kuimu Fairy's confident words, he became uncertain again.


  Xie Baichen never knew that his little disciple had such a strong conflict with all the immortals in Bailing Immortal Palace. He always thought that they got along well.


  Both sides insisted on their own opinions and the situation seemed to have reached a stalemate.


  It was still Mo Yanliang who broke this situation.


  "Since Master doesn't know who to trust, let's search his soul!"


  As soon as Mo Yanliang said this, Xie Baichen was the first to object: "Nonsense! How can the soul-searching technique be used casually?"


  Soul search can directly view other people's memories, and there is no need to worry about whether the person is lying. However, it will cause great damage to the person whose soul is searched, and those with weak mental strength may even become mentally disordered. Therefore, the heaven rarely use this method unless they are facing extremely evil people.


  On the contrary, the devil and demon realm prefer to use this method.


  Therefore, Xie Baichen obviously would not agree to Mo Yanliang's proposal. One of the two parties was his apprentice, and the other was his subordinate. How could he let them take such a big risk?


  When Mo Yanliang mentioned soul searching, Peacock Fairy and Kuimu Xianxin both got worried. After all, after searching their souls, the Immortal King would definitely know what they had done, and they simply couldn't resist the soul search...


  By now, the look they showed towards Mo Yanliang finally showed a hint of fear.


  Before, they thought that Mo Yanliang was just venting his previous anger, but now... they thought Mo Yanliang was crazy! Otherwise, why would he come up with such a suggestion that would hurt others and not benefit himself?


  As if he noticed that Peacock Fairy and Kuimu Fairy were looking at him, Mo Yanliang also looked at them. His eyes were so sinister that Peacock Fairy and Kuimu Fairy both unconsciously looked away.


  "Why not? I am open and honest, and I have nothing to hide. Anyone who dares not to do so has something to hide."


  Mo Yanliang did not give in at all, nor did he give Xie Baichen the slightest bit of face.


  Now that we have said everything today, let’s make it clear all at once.


  He didn't want Peacock Fairy, Kuimu Fairy and other fairies to jump around in front of him anymore, as it would be very annoying.


  Things had come to this point, and Peacock Fairy and Kuimu Fairy no longer dared to be stubborn.


  They felt that Mo Yanliang was now a madman, and he would do anything if pushed into a corner.


  Mo Yanliang had no guilt in accepting the soul search, but they did not dare to do so.


  If the Immortal King really searches their soul, not only the fact that they bullied Mo Yanliang will be exposed, but many other things will also be revealed.


  Thinking of this, Peacock Fairy and Kuimu Fairy knelt down and kowtowed to Xie Baichen to admit their mistakes: "My Lord, it is...we are wrong. Yun Qing Fairy did not wrong us, we were the ones who bullied him."


  Peacock Fairy and Kuimu Fairy suddenly admitted what they had done, which shocked Xie Baichen so much that he took two steps back unconsciously.


  The two immortal officials admitted...


  They really did those things to his little apprentice!


  And he... did not believe his little disciple at first. Instead, he doubted him, scolded him, took back the magic weapon he gave him, and forced him to say that he wanted to search his soul.


  Xie Baichen felt that he couldn't face his little disciple at the moment...


  What on earth did he do?


  "I'm sorry, I'm sorry Yunqing, I didn't know..."


  "Yeah, you don't know."


  Mo Yanliang interrupted Xie Baichen and said in an emotionless voice: "Master, you know nothing."


        Just this one sentence "don't know" made Mo Yunqing suffer so much.


  Seeing that the atmosphere was just right, Mo Yanliang put forward his request: "Master, I don't want to live in Bailing Immortal Palace anymore. I want to move out."


  "Cannot!"


  Xie Baichen's first reaction was to refuse.


  He knew that his young disciple had no magical power at all and it was too dangerous for him to be outside.


  and……


  He was also afraid of what the Immortal Emperor would do to his little disciple.


  "Master, I know what you're thinking. You think letting me live in Bailing Immortal Palace is to protect me. But am I really protected here? Master, you should check your Immortal Palace carefully. And... I'm not asking for your permission, but telling you that I want to leave. Unless you tie me up and lock me up, I will definitely leave."


  Mo Yanliang's words were so decisive that Xie Baichen also realized his determination to leave.


  Although he was helpless, he also knew that if he continued to stop him, their master-disciple relationship would only get worse.


  In the end, Xie Baichen compromised.


  "Okay, Master agrees that you can move out. Give me some time, and I will help you find a new place to live."


  "No, I'll just move back to my previous place."


  Mo Yanliang still had that expressionless look. In the past, Mo Yunqing also had a place to live. Although the place was small and not as grand as the Immortal Lord Palace, it was still his own home and he had freedom when he live there, which was much better than the Immortal Lord Palace.


  Mo Yanliang went back to the room where he was currently living and dragged out the big box.


  He knew that all the things in there were collected by Mo Yunqing, and he had to take them away.


  As for the rest, it has nothing to do with him.


  Mo Yanliang walked away in a leisurely manner, carrying a large box, without even looking back once.


  Xie Baichen looked at his back and tried to catch up with him several times, but in the end he didn't take a step.


  When Mo Yanliang's back disappeared from his sight, he turned around, his face completely gloomy. He looked at the Immortal Lord Palace people who were still kneeling together, and his tone was also a little angry: "Tell me, what good things have you done all these years?"


  -


  Mo Yanliang didn't bother to care about Xie Baichen's reaction after he left. Anyway, he was in a good mood after leaving Bailing Immortal Palace.


  Besides, he was not alone, there was always someone floating around him.


  Mo Yanliang looked at the shadow floating beside him and saw that his expression was quite strange.


  "What's that expression on your face?"


  "I was thinking about my dark history... I lost my memory, not my mind. Why would I believe those lies?"


  If one had to find an adjective to describe the expression on Mo Yunqing's face at this moment, it would probably be "hard to describe".


  Mo Yanliang quickly grasped the key point... Amnesia?


  "Don't tell me you lost your memory after you transmigrated?"


  Mo Yanliang had just asked this question when he saw the person floating beside him nodded with a sad expression: "Not only did I lose my memory, but also because everyone told me that I was Mo Yunqing, and everyone around me told me that I should be this and that, so I turned myself into the protagonist of that novel..."


  When Mo Yunqing said this, he even covered his face with a fan. Perhaps he also felt that the experience was too embarrassing.


  Mo Yanliang:!!!
