When she opened her eyes again and saw the scene in front of her clearly, Mo Chu was stunned!

In front of her lay more than a dozen corpses of Bone-eating Beasts, dripping with blood and looking sinister and terrifying. The surrounding scene was shockingly what they had encountered when they had just entered the inner layer of the Magical Region!

But, why was she here?

Didn’t they walk forward after that… and even found Elder Qin’s broken corpse?

Moreover, did they not encounter dozens of Bone-eating Beasts that were eyeing them like tigers on their way back, and had a fierce battle with them?

Mo Chu was somewhat unable to react and looked down in a daze.

Then, she was even more confused…

Where were the wounds on her body, and the bloodstains on her clothes?

Why were all of them gone?

Mo Chu carefully pulled and even used her hand to carefully rub them. Only then did she shockingly discover that there was not a single wound on her body, and it was as clean as new.

In other words, she was not injured at all!

In that case, the series of events just now… was it just an illusion?

Thinking of this, Mo Chu could not help but think of a movie she had seen before, ‘Inception’. Then, she suddenly gasped.

She had never thought that she would encounter such an unbelievable thing in the Magical Region!

After looking around carefully, Mo Chu’s thoughts gradually cleared up. In other words, when they first encountered this group of Bone-eating Beasts that had died tragically, it was very likely that they had already stepped into an illusion!

And just now, if she had believed in that ‘Ning Yiyuan’ and really fell asleep, she would probably be sleeping here forever!

As soon as she reacted, Mo Chu instantly felt a sense of relief and lingering fear from having survived a desperate situation…

Right, what about Ning Yiyuan, Mo Yang, and the others?

Mo Chu stretched her neck and looked around. Soon, she found traces of them.

These people were not far away, but they were still lying on the ground, unconscious. Sometimes, they frowned, sometimes they trembled…

Mo Chu did not dare to leave. These people had fallen into a deep sleep, and each of them was powerless. At this moment, any magical beast or magical plant could eat them up.

Time passed by quickly.

Soon, the sky completely sank…

The first one to wake up was actually Ning Yiyuan!

When he opened his deep eyes, he happened to meet Mo Chuyi’s eyes. Then, his handsome face turned red like a red apple.

“You’re awake?” Mo Chu leaned her head close and poked him twice curiously. Ning Yiyuan could not help but be stunned when he heard this.

He turned around and looked around. It did not take him long to react to the situation. His face darkened. After pondering for a moment, he lowered his head and muttered, “Could it be… This is the Illusion Tree?”

“What?” Mo Chu heard half of it. “What tree is it? Is it very powerful?”

“Illusion Tree,” Ning Yiyuan repeated, a rare serious expression on his face. “I’ve only seen this kind of tree once in the most primitive records.”

“It’s said that it can create its own illusion interface in a large area. Anyone who enters this interface will be affected. Once they can’t wake up from the illusion, they will fall into a deep sleep for the rest of their lives and never wake up again…”

When Mo Chu heard this, goosebumps immediately appeared on her skin!

Compared to the magical plant that could devour human flesh and blood, this kind of silent and powerful attack was the real boss!

“Then, is its illusion also effective against the magical beasts?”

“Yes.” Ning Yiyuan nodded, his voice slightly cold, “Rumor has it that there was a Magical Region that was full of Illusion Trees. Then, all the creatures in that Magical Region fell into a deep sleep…”

So brutal!

Mo Chu swallowed his saliva and finally understood why Roundy brought its family to District 3.

“Then… this group of Bone-eating Beasts might have encountered an illusion and killed each other?” Mo Chu pointed at the dozen or so Bone-eating Beasts and finally understood.

“Yes.” Ning Yiyuan nodded in agreement. “It should be so.”

“Then what if they didn’t realize it was an illusion?” Mo Chu turned her head to look at Mo Yang, Almighty Song, and the others who were still unconscious. She could not help but worry. “Can we use external forces to wake them up?”

Ning Yiyuan shook his head and directly broke Mo Chu’s unrealistic idea. “This kind of illusion, unless they wake up on their own, no matter how much we provoke them in the outside world, we can’t save them.”

Hearing this, Mo Chu instantly felt deflated. “Then we can only wait like this?”

Ning Yiyuan reached out to rub her head and said softly, “Don’t be dejected. You have to believe them. They definitely won’t let us down.”

Ning Yiyuan’s voice was loud and clear, instantly calming Mo Chu down. Her furrowed brows also relaxed. “Yes, I should believe in them.”

The two of them leaned against each other and looked up at the sky.

In the silence, there was a faint warmth…

“Oh right, how did you see through that illusion?” Ning Yiyuan looked at Little Chu and took a coat from the terminal. He carefully put it on her body and warned, “Be careful, don’t get sick again.”

“Okay.” Mo Chu tugged at her clothes and nodded obediently.

Ning Yiyuan put a long military coat on her body. There was a bit of fur inside, and it wrapped her up tightly. The warmth immediately came to her.

“At that time, I was injured, and I kept walking forward. Suddenly, I met you… Later, when I was about to fall asleep, I suddenly realized that something was wrong…”

Mo Chu’s low voice was particularly fascinating in the dark night. She told the story in great detail. “Then, I woke up just like that!”

Ning Yiyuan listened with great interest. Seeing her proud look, he pinched her nose and praise her. “Not bad. You’re quite alert, aren’t you?”

“Of course.” Mo Chu proudly raised her head and then reached out to slap Ning Yiyuan’s big palm. She said disdainfully, “Stop pinching me. What if you flatten my nose?”

“What else can I do?” Ning Yiyuan chuckled. “Anyway, you’re already married to me. Whether your nose is flat or not, I can only accept it all.”

Tsk!

You’re still acting like a good boy after taking advantage of me!

Mo Chu rolled her eyes at him and could not help but ask, “What about you? How did you react back then?”

Hearing this, Ning Yiyuan’s face instantly turned red. Even in the dark, he could still see his shy appearance. This made Mo Chu even more curious. She kept urging him, “Say it, say it.”

Ning Yiyuan pursed his lips and raised his eyebrows. “Do you really want to hear it?”

“Of course.” Mo Chu nodded repeatedly

“Okay.” Ning Yiyuan smiled ambiguously and then told her about it in detail.

“The illusion in front of us was the same, but after we lost each other, I found you not far away. Maybe it was because of the wound infection, you were a little hot at that time, and you kept rubbing against me, saying that my body was cool…”

“Then, I carried you and found a small stream not far away, so I used the stream water to clean your wound. I also took off all your clothes, so I could help you apply medicine…”

Took off all her clothes?

Hearing this, Mo Chu’s small face could not help but blush, and she gritted her teeth. Ning Yiyuan, you really are a hooligan!

You can’t even forget this kind of thing in the illusion…

“And then?” Mo Chu asked through gritted teeth. She wished she could bite Ning Yiyuan hard!

Ning Yiyuan looked at her seductively and chuckled a little ambiguously.

“The next day, your body was almost better, and your body was no longer hot… Early in the morning, you lay naked on my body and stared at me with watery eyes. Any man would definitely want to do something…”

What Ning Yiyuan did not say was that for some reason, he was so excited that his blood seemed to be boiling. He kept shouting that he wanted to swallow her up!

Now that he thought about it, that feeling was probably caused by the illusion…

In short, under the passion, the two of them had done almost everything that they should or should not have done. At the last step, he suddenly stopped…

“Because I remembered something very important!” Ning Yiyuan coughed twice as if he was recalling those romantic scenes from the past. His voice was slightly hoarse. “I suddenly remembered. Didn’t you have your period? How could it be…”

“So, I immediately realized that this woman in front of me is definitely not you!”

What?!

Mo Chu was dumbfounded when she heard that.

So… Ning Yiyuan was able to escape from the crisis because of her period?

For a moment, Mo Chu could not help but feel confused…
