Breaking Off a Branch for Mu Yichen

Could Shen Huaxiu possibly hesitate to push, kill, and plot against Mu Yunnian, or force her into submission? With Yun Yuan City backing her, how could anyone from Linhe City dare touch her?

In the freezing snow, Mu Yunnian was thrown into a frigid lake. From then on, she was unable to bear children.

When Mu Yunnian was gravely poisoned, City Lord Xiao abandoned her to save the people of the city.

On the day the sky was about to fall, City Lord Xiao protected everyone in the city, but he could not protect Mu Yunnian.

One sentence kept echoing in Mu Yunnian's mind. Xiao Chen Chu had said it when she was pregnant:

"I'd rather let her and the child she carries down than let the people of the city down!"

That was also the time Mu Yunnian was taken away, and she was never able to protect the child in her womb again.

Mu Yunnian: "I have nothing in this world but my life. Shen Chuan, dare you take it?"

Shen Huaxiu: "To die by my hand is a blessing for you, Mu Yunnian."

Xiao Chen Chu: "I will pay any price to keep Mu Yunnian alive! Even the King of Hell had better not lay a finger on her!"

Shen Chuan gave a disdainful smile. "Fallen flowers are spent, and Xiao has vanished. Linhe City is nothing but a ruined city now. I've submitted to Nanyue, and will serve my lord faithfully by killing Xiao Chen Chu."

The dead and the living are separated by only a moment. How can you know that in a few moments... you won't be dead?

King of Hell: "The Book of Life and Death has already foretold who will live and who will die. You mortals, do not presume to act arrogantly."
