292: Old People's Affairs

It was also at that time that Mu Changan and Baiyi Luo first met.

Mu Changan thought of many things from the past, but he could no longer return to them.

"What is your relationship with Baiyi Luo? Why do I get the feeling that your relationship is rather unusual?" Nan Qingyue asked curiously.

As the sect leader of the Divine Sword Sect, it was actually rumored long ago that Baiyi Luo had fallen.

However, by the time Baiyi Luo reappeared, decades had already passed.

For twenty years, Mu Changan had not received the slightest news of Baiyi Luo, and even he believed that she had died.

Fortunately, the heavens had eyes, and today, Mu Changan had received news of Baiyi Luo once again.

This rekindled the hope in Mu Changan's heart; even if he could not see Baiyi Luo, he could at least find Baiyi Luos Tomb.

Perhaps visiting her grave would count as paying tribute to the past.

"Baiyi Luo was perhaps my best friend. If there were a chance, I truly would want to say those three words, but unfortunately, there will never be a chance again." Mu Changan sighed helplessly. His complexion was poor, and he looked as though he had aged several decades in an instant.

Mu Changan lowered his head, a cold glint erupting in his eyes.

If Baiyi Luo were still alive in this world, Mu Changan would certainly not give up such an opportunity.

"Senior, these things are already in the past; you should let them go." Nan Qingyue stepped forward and reached out to gently pat Mu Changan on the shoulder.

In truth, Nan Qingyue did not know how to offer comfort.

However, Nan Qingyue had no other choice; she simply did what she felt she ought to do.

As a result, Nan Qingyue found herself conflicted.

"Can you tell me where Baiyi Luos Tomb is?" Mu Changan lifted his head, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.

When Mu Changan said this, he looked at Nan Qingyue, hoping to learn the location of Baiyi Luos Tomb from her.

However, Nan Qingyue was startled by Mu Changan's sudden action, and she hurriedly retreated several steps.

Seeing this, Mu Changan shook his head helplessly, struggling to calm himself down.

After decades without any news, Mu Changan had suddenly found Baiyi Luo's whereabouts today, and he was understandably somewhat agitated.

It was precisely because of Mu Changan's actions that Nan Qingyue had been startled.

"This…" Nan Qingyue lowered her head, hesitating.

Nan Qingyue's brows were tightly knitted, and her complexion did not seem very good.

Mu Changan assumed that Nan Qingyue was unwilling to say, and his brows furrowed even more anxiously.

"Can you tell me? As long as you tell me, I will tell you whatever you want to know!" Mu Changan was somewhat agitated, and he reached out to tightly grasp Nan Qingyue.

Facing the questioning, Nan Qingyue felt even more helpless. She first shook her head, then sighed deeply.

In truth, if Nan Qingyue had known, she would have said so long ago; her current hesitation was precisely because she did not know.

Nan Qingyue did not want to disappoint Mu Changan just like that.

After all, for Mu Changan, finding Baiyi Luos Tomb was extremely important.

"But, Senior…" Nan Qingyue sighed deeply, feeling even more helpless as she looked at Mu Changan like this.

Nan Qingyue did not know how to speak about this matter.

After all, Nan Qingyue did not want to dampen Mu Changan's spirit.

After a long while, Mu Changan could no longer hold back and continued to press, "Tell me, where exactly is Baiyi Luos Tomb!"

"Tell me!"

Mu Changan's emotions were somewhat agitated, but seeing Mu Changan like this...

This stirred a sense of fear in Nan Qingyue's heart, but there was nothing that could be done about it.

If Nan Qingyue had known, she would not have been hesitating.

"Senior, I truly do not know, but I know someone who surely will know." Nan Qingyue had a serious expression on her face.

At first, Mu Changan did not believe her, but looking at her serious demeanor, he chose to believe her.

"Really? Who knows? Tell me!" Mu Changan's eyes lit up, and he stared fixedly at Nan Qingyue.

Mu Changan tried to obtain Baiyi Luo's whereabouts from Nan Qingyue; he wanted, even more, to know the truth.

But what made it even harder for Nan Qingyue was that she simply did not know how to resolve this matter.

Mu Changan was full of hope regarding this matter, and Nan Qingyue did not want to shatter that hope; otherwise, it would be a heavy blow to Mu Changan.

As such, there was no other way.

"My master's master was Baiyi Luo. When Baiyi Luo fell back then, my master happened to be by her side. I believe my master will certainly know." Nan Qingyue said with a serious face.

In truth, Nan Qingyue did not actually know this; when she first met Li Changfeng, she had never seen Baiyi Luo.

Nan Qingyue had only heard of Baiyi Luo from Li Changfeng.

However, the reason Nan Qingyue said this was also to save Li Changfeng.

Mu Changan was so devoted to Baiyi Luo that he would pay any price to find Baiyi Luos Tomb.

In this way, by utilizing Mu Changan, she might just be able to save Li Changfeng's life.

At present, Nan Qingyue had no other options; perhaps this was the only way she could save Li Changfeng.

For this goal, Nan Qingyue was willing to do anything.

"Are you telling the truth?" Mu Changan's face darkened, his gaze narrowing as he stared fixedly at Nan Qingyue.

Mu Changan did not want this matter to be false, and he certainly did not want to be deceived.

Therefore, Mu Changan was willing to believe Nan Qingyue, provided, of course, that she was worthy of that trust.

If, in the end, Mu Changan discovered that he had been deceived by Nan Qingyue, then not only would Nan Qingyue die, but Li Changfeng would also be killed.

"It's true, I wouldn't lie to you. You can trust me, Senior. But if you want to find Baiyi Luos Tomb, you must save my master, Li Changfeng. If my master, Li Changfeng, dies, then you will never know." Nan Qingyue said with a dark expression.

Mu Changan narrowed his eyes, looking at Nan Qingyue.

Seeing Nan Qingyue's demeanor, she did not seem to be lying, so he decided he could choose to believe her.

For Mu Changan's part, he was willing to believe her this once.

"Very well, as long as you can help me find Baiyi Luos Tomb, I can agree to everything you ask." Mu Changan was quite straightforward and agreed immediately.

Nan Qingyue had not even said what the matter was, yet Mu Changan had agreed without a second thought.

For Mu Changan, this would be an opportunity.

For twenty years, Mu Changan had been searching for Baiyi Luo, yet he had known nothing.

Now, the heavens had given Mu Changan this opportunity, and he would certainly not let it slip by. He had already made up his mind: first save Li Changfeng, then search for Baiyi Luos Tomb.
