Chapter 517 Satisfied or not?

Even if reason told Morax that he should be calmer, what Yuan Zhuoyue had just said was completely logical and made perfect sense no matter which aspect he imagined.

Both he and Yuan Zhuoyue are good at creating illusions from reality, outlining a false truth bit by bit.

But the impact brought by that "possibility" still made his mind go blank for a moment, and his thoughts could not help but spread out according to this idea.

If this is true...

So when did this child, who was not meant to be with them... arrive? And when did he leave so quietly?

Morax searched through his memories but could not find any trace or clue of the child mentioned by Yuan Zhuoyue.

It seemed as if everything that had just happened was just a joke that Yuan Zhuoyue said casually.

At this moment, Yuan Zhuoyue suddenly chuckled, a smile on her face: "Why do you look like you're facing a formidable enemy? I was just joking, there's no need to be so nervous..."

"The clay used to mold the doll was indeed mingled with our blood. How can that not be considered the continuation of our bloodline?" Yuan Zhuoyue briefly explained the reasoning, then revealed a look of regret and sighing, "It's just a pity... [He] didn't arrive in this world smoothly as I wished."

"So, the 'gift' I originally prepared for you can no longer be delivered to you. However... there's this—" Yuan Zhuoyue said as a round, transparent pearl suddenly appeared in his hand. It looked like it was made of amber, but it was extremely crystal clear and shimmered with a brilliant brilliance. "I polished this myself, and it also took a lot of time. I give this to you. I wonder if you are satisfied?"

The gem held between Yuan Zhuoyue's fingers had a golden glow flowing inside it, and at first glance it looked like a galaxy flowing across the sky.

However, these flickering lights looked extremely lively, as if they were trying to break free from the orb.

Unfortunately, their movements were forced to stop after they hit the border barrier, and they could only flow slowly inside.

Morax had seen this bead before, but before that it should have been a pair, embedded in the eye sockets of the little doll.

Although Morax had many questions, he did not choose to ask them thoroughly at this moment. Seeing that Yuan Zhuoyue had been holding the bead for a long time, he slowly stretched out his hand with a slightly stiff movement.

Seeing that Morax was so cooperative, Yuan Zhuoyue didn't say much and gently placed the bead in Morax's palm.

Then he continued to speak softly with a smile: "How is it? Are you satisfied?"

But Morax lowered his eyes and looked at the dazzling gem placed in his palm by Yuan Zhuoyue, but he did not take it lightly.

Although there were no lies between them, the truth they revealed could still cleverly hide the real truth.

And both Yuan Zhuoyue and he were extremely good at weaving such a trap to deceive the other party with the truth.

This was a necessary means to maintain the fragile trust between them after the gap between them gradually grew, but it was also the sharp blade that deepened the gap between them and made them unable to avoid it.

Faced with Yuan Zhuoyue's inquiry, Morax didn't know how to give an appropriate answer, and in the end he could only nod in silence as a response.
