After being hit in the face by the system, I swapped bodies with Zhongli

Chapter 444: Why are you still alive? Why don’t you die?

Morax did not give a direct explanation, but looked towards the place where Guizhong and Ruota Dragon King were standing quietly in the cave.

The moment Gui Zhong and Ruota Dragon King exchanged with Morax, they immediately understood that the subsequent conversation between Morax and Yuan Zhuoyue should not be known to them.

Although they were reluctant, they made a unanimous decision and left the cave together, leaving Morax and Yuan Zhuoyue alone.

Seeing that his old friends left very cooperatively and did not leave any "backup plans" behind, he tried to find out the situation in the cave.

Morax then extended his hand to Yuan Zhuoyue who was standing nearby: "...The power that is currently entrenched in your body is not stable. Calm it down first. If you have any questions or confusions in your mind, I will answer them one by one."

Yuan Zhuoyue lowered his eyes and stared at the hand in front of him. The hand looked like gold, stone, chalcedony, black rock, and jade, and it exuded a strong inhuman feeling.

There was no movement for a long while.

The atmosphere seemed to freeze at this point. Yuan Zhuoyue raised her eyes and their gazes met Morax's sharp golden eyes.

But from beginning to end, her expression and breath were extremely calm, without any obvious fluctuations or ups and downs.

After looking at each other for a while, Yuan Zhuoyue finally took action and slowly raised his hand.

Seemingly the same as always, he took the initiative to place his hand on Morax's palm.

With Morax's hand as hard as black rock as a contrast, her hands looked even more slender, pale and bloodless.

It seemed as if it was covered with a layer of indissoluble ice and frost, exuding a chilling coldness.

And the slightly cool temperature was transmitted to Morax's hands through the contact of skin.

She heard Yuan Zhuoyue say with great understanding: "Don't worry, I have the patience to listen to your continued nonsense..."

Faced with such a situation, Morax really wanted to sigh. Yuan Zhuoyue was now behaving too normally.

A normal Morax would have no way of telling whether she had recalled her past memories.

If Yuan Zhuoyue had already recalled his past memories, no matter what he said at this moment, perhaps in Yuan Zhuoyue's eyes, it would seem like he was making excuses for himself.

It will only further arouse her resentment.

If it were Yuan Zhuoyue, he still wouldn't remember anything and would just want an explanation from him.

Morax only felt that this situation was more difficult.

If he told everyone everything, some of the cruel truths would definitely shock Yuan Zhuoyue deeply.

If he concealed something, when Yuan Zhuoyue recalled the past, she would definitely think that his behavior of fooling her was extremely abominable.

Then I'm afraid that in Yuan Zhuoyue's mind, he has committed an even more serious crime.

This was indeed a dilemma. Morax had never imagined this uncertain future before.

Naturally, he had not thought about in advance how he could properly stabilize Yuan Zhuoyue's emotions, as he had not yet explained to Yuan Zhuoyue who might not have recovered his memory.

During these days, her life seemed magnificent, but also foggy, as if she was in a dream, and it was a journey full of confusion and ignorance.

And from what Yuan Zhuoyue said to him before, Morax naturally understood that she had a lot of opinions about him.

If not for this, Yuan Zhuoyue, who had always been very gentle and soft in her words when facing him before, would not have said such sharp words.

Even when she said these words, she spoke softly, looking very gentle, without much worldly air.

That's why Morax brought it up first, in order to help Yuan Zhuoyue calm the power that was beginning to surge again.

This allows him to come up with a win-win explanation within this short period of time, and one that does not contain lies.

And when his palms were placed together with Yuan Zhuoyue's and he began to sort out his strength, Morax could feel it clearly.

The power in her body has accumulated to a critical threshold and has completely begun to erode this human body.

And in the future, the negative forces that remain in this world and have not yet disappeared, known as the "filthy" force, will continue to gather towards her.

Another force that can fight against the [filth] remains in her body and gradually accumulates.

While achieving a delicate balance, the two forces are also gradually growing in opposition.

There wasn't much Morax could do. He could only try his best to channel the overflowing power into his own body.

To slightly alleviate the impact of these forces on Yuan Zhuoyue and the pain it brought.

Then, he would use his own strength to guide the power in Yuan Zhuoyue's body that originated from himself, and serve as a reconciliation between the power of [Zhulong] and [filth].

Until finally, under the influence of these powers, she completely shed her mortal body.

Yuan Zhuoyue didn't feel good either. She could clearly feel the growing power in her body, which was gradually becoming heavier and harder to shake.

Those forces seemed to be subtly influencing her body, as if transforming it bit by bit, until she was transformed into an unrecognizable person, and then they would stop completely.

Yuan Zhuoyue felt an inexplicable panic in his heart. It was a very inexplicable feeling, as if there was a voice in his heart constantly reminding him.

Once these powers become complete, she will no longer be herself.

Yuan Zhuoyue felt uneasy and thought that she couldn't go on like this, so she tried to suppress her own strength, but the final result was still to little avail.

Even the negative feedback it brought about immediately manifested itself in her body, as if a barrier had appeared between her body and soul.

Yuan Zhuoyue felt as if he could break free from the shackles of his physical body at any time, and fly up like a bird, or fall into the abyss.

Until now, she met Morax again, who had been sleeping for some time.

Yuan Zhuoyue thought that when they met again, she would express her dissatisfaction and anger, and would question Morax mercilessly.

She even recalled the hatred and murderous intent that had arisen in her heart from nowhere when Morax was unconscious.

But there was nothing... Her heart seemed so calm that she felt a little confused.

But until now, when Morax, as he had done in the past, extended his power to her body through their clasped hands.

Yuan Zhuoyue suddenly felt a hunger that she had not felt for a long time. The hunger emerged in an instant, as if it could burn her sanity in an instant.

It immediately filled her whole body, like a ball of fire that suddenly surged up from her heart, determined to burn everything about her before it would give up.

The Morax, which is so close, is like a clear spring and a sweet rain from heaven.

His strength, his flesh and blood, must be like the most abundant fruit of water, able to soothe the hunger that burns like fire.

Yuan Zhuoyue didn't know what was wrong with her. She just felt extremely painful and uncomfortable. She suddenly shook off her hand that was connected with Morax.

When she raised her hand to cover her face, she felt a damp and hot sensation. She moved her hand down from her face and immediately saw the water stains on her palm through her hazy vision.

But in a flash, the water stains on his palms became hot.

In a trance, she saw the clear and transparent liquid suddenly turn into sticky and bright red blood, overflowing her palms and then slipping through her fingers.

Yuan Zhuoyue felt an unbearable pain suddenly appearing in his brain, as if a seed had taken root and sprouted in his brain.

Then it grew and spread, turning into thorny vines and thorns, slowly wriggling in her blood vessels and gradually crawling all over her limbs and bones.

Yuan Zhuoyue could hardly hold back and groaned in pain. She wanted to break through her skin and flesh and remove all the vines growing in it.

I also wanted to cut open my chest and abdomen, so that the raging flames inside could be released from my body.

But she did nothing, because the moment she took any action, she was suddenly restrained by a huge force.

Yuan Zhuoyue naturally struggled hard. She pounced on him and knocked Morax to the couch, then strangled him with both hands.

But suddenly, she met those eyes that were like molten gold at sunset. The bright and brilliant color seemed to dispel some of the gloom in an instant.

Yuan Zhuoyue's confused mind became a little clearer, and she could see things clearly.

His hideous appearance was reflected in those golden eyes.

At that moment, the burning hunger and the pain that spread throughout her limbs and bones seemed to be suddenly pulled away from her body.

She stared at those eyes blankly, muttering something in her mouth, but tightened her grip: "Why...are you still alive?...Why...don't you die?"
