In the living room.

Mo Jiangwen stood firmly in front of Chen Yun, contemplating how to persuade her next, completely unaware of the third presence in the space.

Feng Shaoying was standing behind them, concealing her figure and aura with her spatial abilities and Tao He's witchcraft, eavesdropping on the conversation between Mo Jiangwen and Chen Yun. In fact, she had arrived before Mo Jiangwen entered.

She was there to watch over Chen Yun at Ma En's request. Then, Mo Jiangwen happened to burst in just as Ma En left, suddenly revealing many truths about the church to Chen Yun and wanting to take her away for protection.

Seeing this, Feng Shaoying immediately contacted Qin Lan and Ma En, receiving the order to continue monitoring. As the situation seemed to escalate, she promptly asked them what she should do next.

But she received no answer.

"No, thank you for telling me all this," Chen Yun refused. "Avoiding these mistakes is a reasonable choice. Staying would definitely involve considerable risk, but I have my own ideas, and I am, after all, a clergy member.

"But you're right, meddling in this isn't wise.

"So I would like to ask you not to take any unnecessary risks. It's too dangerous for you."

Mo Jiangwen said righteously:

"Haven't you realized that I've been investigating the church all along? This isn't a spur-of-the-moment decision…"

Chen Yun nodded slightly:

"I understand. You've uncovered the church's secrets. I'm not stopping you from continuing, but coming here to warn me isn't conducive to what you're doing. Contacting me might bring you trouble.

"Even if we don't consider what the church would do if they knew you came here, the effort spent helping me could be used for something more meaningful."

Mo Jiangwen couldn't refute Chen Yun's words. She had made things very clear. No matter how he put it, there was no reasonable explanation for him coming to warn her. After all, they had only met a few times.

Moreover, Chen Yun subtly pointed out a fact—if he truly wanted to do good or oppose the church, he could easily find many people more in need of help than Chen Yun, and the time spent on her could be used for something more useful.

She flatly rejected his proposal to leave together.

Mo Jiangwen was somewhat disappointed. Although he knew how unrealistic his idea was, for some inexplicable reason, he had briefly fantasized that Chen Yun would abandon everything and leave with him like in a fairy tale.

It seemed he needed to be more realistic.

Mo Jiangwen lowered his eyelids slightly, then lied without changing his expression:

"No, you misunderstood. The reason I'm here isn't what you think. The world we live in is far more complex than what you usually encounter, although you haven't realized it yet…

"But you are important to this war, and my purpose in coming here is to invite you to become one of us, to become a rebel against the evil church. You possess untapped potential that no one has noticed, but I can see through your soul."

Chen Yun said respectfully:

"I respect your ideas, but I don't know you well yet, and I have my younger brother to take care of. Rather than taking up arms and directly opposing the church, I prefer to handle things in a gentler way."

Mo Jiangwen immediately replied:

"Your brother doesn't need anyone's care. You can't influence those powerful individuals who truly threaten him, and the church will indeed soon notice our interactions. Once they know the truth, they won't just stand by.

"You have no choice."

Chen Yun stood firm and said:

"Thank you, but I still choose to stay."

Mo Jiangwen didn't understand the meaning of the word 'care'.

Ma En didn't need her protection, and she knew she couldn't do anything about it.

But his current situation wasn't as good as the outside world believed. Before Ma En entered the mental hospital, she never worried about him. He could always solve and handle the difficulties he faced, but now he was different.

He had lost his memory.

Mo Jiangwen clearly realized that Chen Yun no longer wanted to convince him. She was simply informing him of her decision.

What should he do now? Should he directly tell her about You Yue, or forcibly drag her into hell?

But neither option was good. He no longer believed that the former could truly corrupt Chen Yun. Her rational demeanor had gradually made Mo Jiangwen lose faith in that idea. Chen Yun hadn't wavered even slightly.

And forcibly dragging her into hell had other problems. Doing so would be good for him, but it would likely provoke Chen Yun's anger and incomprehension, making it even more difficult for him to persuade her to fall.

But if he didn't forcibly take her away, he wouldn't be able to corrupt her in a short time. That old man always saw this matter more accurately than his impulsive self. He had no other choice.

Even if it meant paying a huge compensation and reward, he had to take Chen Yun away.

As for Chen Yun's thoughts…

There's always a bit of selfishness in love, or at least that's what he thought.

Mo Jiangwen looked directly into Chen Yun's eyes and said:

"What if I told you that the real situation is even worse than what I just said?

"I didn't originally intend to tell you this, because without Ma En's presence, it would be difficult for me to make you believe what I'm about to say, and I'm also worried that it might be difficult for you to accept, but it seems I have no other choice.

"You still have hope for the church, so I can only reveal the truly cruel reality to you.

"You must have seen the witch hunts just now, and you must have heard some rumors. Those evil witches and warlocks often collude with terrifying and dangerous demons and devils, and they often go to hell after they die. That's the version you've heard.

"But that's wrong. The truth is completely reversed.

"The truth is that those so-called witches who were killed were all persecuted ordinary people. A very small number of lucky ones are accepted by a dimension called hell and given the power to take revenge on the church and heaven, and they are what you call demons and devils.

"And the person who created this dimension was the earliest victim. When he died, this act wasn't yet called witch hunting. The church hadn't yet invented the concept of witches and warlocks at that time.

"They secretly found those innocent mortals, killed them, and turned their souls into the sacred fire of heaven. An innocent person who seemed like a mortal was cruelly killed and used by them, and his anger before death turned into hell.

"And I am a revenger from hell. Whether you agree or not, I must take you there, because I can see the justice in your heart. This has already destined that you will not collude with heaven and the church. You are one of us.

"I know you must still have doubts in your heart, so I want to tell you…"

"What are you going to tell her?" Ma En asked curiously from behind him, "Kind-hearted Devil."
