Mu Jinran and Chu Mubai entered the old man's house.

He looked around. Everything in the room was simple. There was a wooden chair, a stone bed, a mattress, and a rattan chair that could be reclined on its back.

It was hard to imagine that such a simple and crude place would actually be the residence of a village in a paradise.

"Grandpa Gu, this is the crystal that Master told me to bring you. The power to guard the seal is inside this crystal."

Mu Jinran took out three pieces of crystal from her spatial ring and handed them over to the old man.

The elder nodded, his expression as calm as ever.

After carefully examining it for a while, he placed the crystal to the side. Then, he let out a deep sigh with a worried look on his face.

Chu Mubai frowned slightly at this moment, as he suddenly sensed a trace of a strange aura.

Mu Jinran was comparatively simpler, but in her opinion, something should have happened to the old man, so she asked with a wooden face: "Grandfather, what happened to you? Did something happen? You can tell me. "

When the old man heard this, he initially looked ahead with narrowed eyes. After a few seconds of silence, he nodded and said, "This year's seal undulations are different from the previous ones, to be honest, Devil Dragon's Cave should have already escaped with their demon, the cave is now filled with death qi, although this seal can be guarded, the demon that escaped …"

The old man did not say anything further. His words were sincere and each word was spoken for the sake of everyone. Mu Jinran then laughed carefreely: "So it was this matter, don't worry, the demon that you spoke of that escaped from the Devil Dragon's Cave was killed by us. On the road here, we sensed that something was wrong, but we never expected that we guessed correctly. Rest assured. "

Hearing Mu Jinran's words, the old man immediately raised her head, her deep eyes shooting out two aggressive rays of light!

This emotion was fleeting, even when observed by Chu Mubai, it had already disappeared the moment it appeared.

This excitement came from the bottom of his heart. It was definitely not as simple as being gratified!

If it was really as Mu Jinran had said, this Peach Blossom Village existed for the sake of protecting the demon, then they would only feel disgust towards the demon in their eyes. They would only feel gratified that the demon had been killed, and not be excited.

This kind of change in mood was more like, don't worry … It was like a huge rock that was being suppressed in his heart had finally been relieved!

Could it be that they have some secret in the hands of the demon?

This was the thought that immediately came to Chu Mubai's mind. Somehow, he felt that his guess was right.

However, he did not think too much about it at this moment. That was because he clearly knew that it was useless to make wild guesses.

Therefore, demon was not dead, but had already signed a master and servant contract with him, he could ask him about it sometime.

"Since that's the case, I am much more at ease. Come, tell grandpa about this year's upheaval in the outside world."

Grandpa Gu looked at Mu Jinran, his wise and farsighted eyes were replaced by warmth, and laughed as he spoke.

Mu Jinran was very innocent and did not have the slightest guard against this person. Without holding anything back, she told the old man everything that had happened in the outside world during this year.

Chu Mubai who was at the side did not say a word, but was deep in thought the entire time.

He was very puzzled.

A village in a foreign land, a village chief responsible for suppressing the seal on the Infernal domain, a village chief who couldn't have any hopes for the outside world, why would he be curious about the turbulence in the outside world?

Shouldn't everything in the outside world have nothing to do with them?

They were only responsible for sealing the Infernal domain.

Or is it … Suppressing the seal of the Infernal domain was not his original intention. Leaving it here was also not what they truly wanted to do.

If that was the case, then what was the conspiracy and truth behind it?

Could it be … Chu Mubai suddenly thought of the fact that the people from the Demon Region knew about thirty thousand years ago. He suddenly sensed that perhaps the existence of this group of people was also inextricably linked to the people from thirty thousand years ago.

30,000 years ago, his slumber must have involved something major. It was a massive conspiracy, a conspiracy that had been erased from history!

After a moment of thought, Chu Mubai could be considered to have completely confirmed this fact. Even so, he quickly entered into a state of calm, and did not think any further.

He knew very well that forcing himself to think was meaningless, and even if he were to ask now, it would only increase the danger. He might as well bury this matter deep in his heart and slowly explain it when the time was right.

Mu Jinran and the old man's sighs continued for a full four hours before stopping.

It was also noon at this time. Mu Jinran had also noticed that Chu Mubai's expression was unnatural, and after quickly finishing up, she asked to return to the sect.

The elder did not obstruct him too much and nodded his head with a smile before agreeing.

Chu Mubai had been silent the entire time, but his incredibly calm face was filled with an ice-cold and serious aura, which was exceptionally different from usual.

Mu Jinran more or less understood Chu Mubai, so she could tell that his mood was heavy.

So after the two of them left the village, and walked forward for a while, Mu Jinran then asked: "Hey, Wood, what happened to you? They were depressed and those who didn't know about it would think that I was bullying you. "

Mu Jinran walked in front of Chu Mubai in an extremely displeased manner, blocking his way, and said while patting her chest.

Chu Mubai had always been thinking about the matters of the paradise, and everything gave him a very strange illusion. It was as though there was something unfathomable, and his thoughts were lingering in his mind, but he was still unable to figure out what it was!

He could only keep thinking.

Now that his train of thought was interrupted by Mu Jinran, he could not help but be startled.

After being startled for a while, he looked at Mu Jinran, and helplessly shook his head: "Something's not right. Don't tell me you didn't feel something wasn't right?"

After pondering over and over again, Chu Mubai finally spoke out his doubts.

After Mu Jinran heard this, he was shocked at first. After that, she shook her head with a dull expression and innocently replied: "I don't think so. Everything is normal. I think you must have been thinking too much. "

"Impossible!"

In the face of Mu Jinran's retort, Chu Mubai shook his head and replied with exceptional decisiveness. Almost without hesitation, he said in a deep voice, "If they are really in charge of sealing the Infernal domain for all their lives and generations, they will have no surprises whatsoever regarding the outside world. Because he knows very well that once they give birth to a longing, they will want to leave! Do you know why they were left here to seal the Infernal domain? During your conversation with him, did you not realize that he wants to know everything about the outside world very clearly and urgently? In fact, you talked for four whole hours, but as for the matter of the crystals and the Demon Area being sealed, stop talking about it! Don't you feel that this is a very strange thing? "

Chu Mubai revealed all of his doubts and speculations from the bottom of his heart about this matter in one breath.

Mu Jinran was also very patient to finish listening to this. At this moment, her eyebrows were tightly knitted, as she sank into deep thought.

After a long while, she seemed to feel that the words Chu Mubai had just said to her made quite a bit of sense, and she couldn't help but nod her head as she muttered to herself: "According to what you've said, there's quite a bit of logic to it. Thinking about it now, although they've always emphasized that this is a paradise, they're completely uninterested in everything in the outside world. If what you said is true, then it can only prove one point! These people were not willing to stay here. It was because of some helpless things, such as seals, curses, and the like. But why would he lie to me? So what if he knew about what had happened outside? Could it be that he could really do something? Wasn't it impossible to leave this group? Do you have any leads? "

After a moment of thought, a series of questions popped up in Mu Jinran's mind. After she finished asking all of them in one breath, he looked at Chu Mubai and asked.

Chu Mubai shook his head helplessly. At the moment, he was only wondering in his heart, if he really were to discover something, it would be rather difficult to do. After all, from the start to the end, he could not really be considered as someone who understood this very well.

"Do you have any good methods now?"

After seeing Chu Mubai's reply, Mu Jinran slowly spoke up after being silent for a few seconds.

At this moment, the two of them could be considered to be looking at each other. Their eyes were filled with yearning and their eyes emitted two rays of light. They were brimming with energy and seemed to be narrating something.

Their eyes were all filled with curiosity, doubt, longing, fearlessness, and high spirits!

This was what Chu Mubai was thinking deep within his heart.

It was not that he did not understand such a simple matter. However, there were some things that he did not wish to do, and even more so did not wish to do.

But as matters stood, when he told Mu Jinran about this matter, everything was over.

Because Mu Jinran was a completely different person from him. She would do it whenever she thought of it, always being decisive and swift, never hesitating in the slightest when doing things.

Therefore, all of the little thoughts in Chu Mubai's heart had already been clearly figured out, and before she could say anything, Mu Jinran spoke up first: "Alright, you don't have to be so bashful, and don't push the matter away, let's do it this way. Since you said it out loud, then that definitely represents your doubt and distrust towards them, and from your perspective, I have indeed thought about it, things aren't as simple as it seems. Since you're puzzled, let's turn around and take a look. "
