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

Morax, who looked like a half-dead shell, seemed to have improved a little at this moment, but after hearing this, he was silent for a moment.

Then he raised his eyes slightly, and met Yuan Zhuoyue's gaze with his sharp golden eyes, which looked even more majestic because of his current appearance and temperament.

As if he had just escaped from that abnormal state, Yuan Zhuoyue now showed his usual sensitivity and suspicion whenever something abnormal happened, and was full of doubts about everything around him.

After their eyes met, Morax replied calmly with a calm expression: "...I didn't hear anyone talking just now."

Yuan Zhuoyue, who was watching Morax's expression carefully, almost subconsciously took a step forward after hearing Morax's answer.

She sniffed gently near Morax, but did not smell the extremely strong and tempting fragrance that Yuan Zhuoyue could not resist before.

At this moment, she did not feel the burning hunger that was scratching her heart and liver.

Only then did Yuan Zhuoyue believe that Morax had not lied to her or hidden anything.

But at this time, Yuan Zhuoyue began to reflect on himself and thought he shouldn't be so sensitive and suspicious.

Morax hadn't hurt her or done anything to make her feel uncomfortable, and it was even obvious.

Just now, Morax was trying his best to help her, so that she could break free from the terrible state of looking down on all living beings from a high position and despising all living things.

In this situation, the first thing she did was not to express her gratitude. She wanted to resolve the doubts in her heart.

What followed were extremely sharp doubts that even the most dull-witted person could feel.

Even Yuan Zhuoyue knew that he could not control his thoughts and ideas at all in this state and just wanted a definite answer.

In order to get out of it as quickly as possible, it is as if the state can be easily irritated by the slightest disturbance from the outside world.

Even with such a pale body, it seemed that this body was a considerable burden to Morax.

It also caused him to incur a lot of unnecessary consumption, making him look a little strained and tired in the brief glance he got from Yuan Zhuoyue just now.

And after putting in all this effort, what he received in return was indeed Yuan Zhuoyue's sensitivity and suspicion, even though it was such a thankless situation.

Morax's pair of golden eyes, which seemed to be full of warmth, bright and dazzling, were still gentle and tolerant when he looked at Yuan Zhuoyue.

He displayed his usual indulgent attitude unscrupulously.

It's like an elder who dotes on his juniors too much and tolerates a rebellious and thorny child.

Although Yuan Zhuoyue was spoiled since childhood and has a rather delicate personality, she was not spoiled to the point of being willful and having no sense of propriety.

Yuan Zhuoyue closed his eyes and held his forehead. After a long silence, he gradually suppressed the doubts that emerged in his mind one after another.

He completely suppressed the intense and extremely sharp emotions in his heart.

After letting out a long breath, he slowly opened his eyes and said to Morax in a serious and solemn tone, "Thank you for helping me get out of that state in time. Otherwise, after a long time... I don't know what I, who is abnormal, will do..."

Yuan Zhuoyue wasn't even sure if Morax hadn't stopped her and restrained her behavior at that time.

Before he was stopped and awakened by a gentle and extremely mysterious male voice that came from nowhere.

Will the dreamland on which millions of lives depend for survival be completely overturned by her like disrupting a sand table?

Morax replied in his usual calm and gentle voice: "...This is not entirely my fault. If you have made up your mind to do this...even I can't stop you."

After hearing these words, Yuan Zhuoyue felt speechless.

For the first time, she clearly knew how she was regarded by Morax.

However, Yuan Zhuoyue had never thought that in Morax's mind, he would be so lethal and could be classified as uncontrollable.

But generally it gets this kind of assessment...

Shouldn't Morax find ways to restrain and restrict her, and keep the possible harm she may cause within a certain range?

Why did Morax, contrary to his usual practice, train her carefully, teach her how to use her power, and learn those advanced spells that might have a greater impact in battle?

If she really has this "immortal fate" and can control her own behavior, it is understandable that Morax taught her so carefully, whether it is to leave a legacy or to train an assistant or a capable subordinate for herself.

But what Yuan Zhuoyue couldn't understand was that she was clearly in an abnormal state, and could be called a madman who could strike back at any time.

But Morax was still willing to spend his energy on her.

Moreover, he treated her with great indulgence and care, and never disciplined her harshly.

He just acted like an older guide with such a generous image, leading her as she took the initiative to move forward and keep moving forward.

What on earth is Morax doing all this for?

Even if her growth in the future does meet Morax's expectations, how can Morax guarantee that she will not become a sober lunatic with distorted cognition who does not know that she is crazy?

Are you gambling on that tiny probability, betting that she will never turn into a madman and turn sword against her teacher who taught her and answered her questions?

But Yuan Zhuoyue felt that everything she was facing now had an indescribable sense of disharmony.

This is almost like putting those tiny and fragile creatures who may be affected by her at risk.

It shouldn't be Morax, who has accumulated and been polished for thousands of years. He is as gentle as a piece of jade, but still as strong as the eternal bedrock.

Kind and tolerant, this is what a god who loves people would do.

If this is really the case, Yuan Zhuoyue feels that in the end she will most likely end up disappointing Morax's trust, which came from nowhere but was so firm that it even scared her.

There are some things that you can’t think about…

Even if I thought about it carefully, I couldn't delve deeper into it, let alone say it out loud.

Morax naturally had his own secrets that he was hiding from her, but in this process, Yuan Zhuoyue, who was a beneficiary from beginning to end, had no way to get to the bottom of it.

So far, Yuan Zhuoyue's communication between the two was only superficial, and he stopped trying before digging deeper.

Now that we are just strangers, it is even more impossible to have deep conversations.

But in the final analysis, it can also be classified as unfamiliar.

So distrust leads to uneasiness, which in turn leads to suspicion.

Although Yuan Zhuoyue felt that this sentence was more in line with her own mentality, she trusted Morax too much. She trusted him so much that she almost felt that Morax had no bottom line.

But if she really had any problems, Morax would probably be able to use the truth to shirk the blame on her, just like before.

While she got a definite answer, it was not a real answer.

Because before that, in response to Yuan Zhuoyue's request, "Don't lie to me."

Morax did not give a clear response or a definite promise. After a round of evasion, Yuan Zhuoyue's request seemed to be blandly exposed by this whitewashing man.

Morax refused this verbal "contract", which meant that he could not make any promise to Yuan Zhuoyue. It could also be said that he sincerely stated that there would be no concealment or lies in the subsequent communication.

Even though such concealment from Morax might arouse her abnormal state, he still insisted on doing so.

Fortunately, Morax now has a way to suppress the abnormality when she is in an abnormal state and return her to normal.
