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

Yuan Zhuoyue blatantly left the mark on Morax's palm and dutifully passed it on to her. After they parted, it contained all the content of Morax's conversation with the half-demon girl who showed up suddenly and had many secrets.

The conversation was quite brief, and in just a few words she was able to summarize the matter of life and death.

It's not that the half-demon girl is taciturn. She seems to have a thousand words to say to 'Gen Zhuoyue', but was ruthlessly stopped by Morax.

Although she was unwilling, the half-demon girl still obeyed the order from 'Yuan Zhuoyue' and returned to the dreamland honestly without any tricks or tricks.

Obedient, well-behaved, cute, and not noisy at all.

Unlike the half-demon girl who came suddenly and left quite cleanly, Morax seemed a little slow in his subsequent actions.

Although the current Yuan Zhuoyue, even if he has not left that mark on Morax, can still feel his current location and movements.

But through the mark that now remains on Morax's palm, Yuan Zhuoyue can feel more clearly that after saying goodbye to the half-demon girl, Morax was approaching the Sichuan restaurant where she was now at an extremely slow speed.

Yuan Zhuoyue estimated her usual movement speed and the current distance, and found that the time Morax had walked was more than twice as slow as her normal walking speed.

Yuan Zhuoyue didn't know what Morax was thinking along the way, but she was sure that Morax must be feeling very complicated.

And when Morax came in front of her, the question asked by Yuan Zhuoyue was not sarcastic and meant to imply something.

It's just pure curiosity.

After all, as far as she knew, King Rādhāra had gone into a state of madness and chaos due to wear and tear.

Morax was willing to use all his strength to try to delay the wear and tear, but in the end it was of no avail and he failed, so he could only seal his old friend underground.

Of course, Yuan Zhuoyue also knew that although Morax had shown a very close attitude towards her from the beginning, it was by no means comparable to an old friend who had been with Morax for a thousand years.

But relying on this relatively close and friendly relationship, Yuan Zhuoyue really wanted to know, if she was in the same situation as Lord Rudra, what choice would Morax make?

To what extent does Morax's concern extend?

Where does this closeness and care come from?

The relationship between her and Morax, in their closeness, reveals a sense of strangeness and alienation. It is like a castle in the air, rootless and floating, flashy and superficial.

Too close, but not enough trust.

And the most important point is a question derived from the topic discussed by the half-demon girl and Morax before.

What kind of situation would lead Morax to take her life?

Morax, who had just returned to Yuan Zhuoyue's side, was hit in the face by this straightforward question without any tact or probing as soon as he appeared in front of Yuan Zhuoyue.

This question was indeed a little difficult for Morax to answer now. He knew that after discussing such a sensitive topic, Yuan Zhuoyue would not let it go easily, but he did not expect her to be so direct.

Although he already knew that there is no good banquet, his coming here could be regarded as attending another Hongmen Banquet, and he also made some preparations in advance to deal with Yuan Zhuoyue's temptation.

This sudden question choked all the words he had prepared back into his mouth.

Morax fell into silence for a moment. He was also worried that some of his verbal omissions might give Yuan Zhuoyue some negative stimulation.

Fortunately, Morax was able to sense Yuan Zhuoyue's current emotions through the connection between them. There were no violent ups and downs, and he was slightly relieved after he became stable and calm.

The half-demon girl came too suddenly, which was completely beyond Morax's expectations. Although according to the past trajectory, this half-demon girl named Xian Yan did have some intersections with Yuan Zhuoyue.

Morax originally thought that with the current development, after his interference, the casual acquaintance would no longer exist, and Xian Yan would still appear in front of 'Yuan Zhuoyue'.

And with a "thunderbolt", the dead end foreseen in the future hit him and Yuan Zhuoyue.

Yuan Zhuoyue looked at Morax, his face still calm and composed. He just sat down on the chair opposite her without saying a word, and his expression was still calm and composed.

He just asked slowly, "Is this question difficult to answer? It takes so long to think about it."

Yuan Zhuoyue heard exactly what Morax talked about with the half-demon girl through the mark left on Morax's body.

Yuan Zhuoyue is not superstitious, this is because he has seen the prophecy of future fragments.

Because the "prophecy" affects the final outcome, events called the Oedipus effect occur from time to time in this world.

It is like a seed that has been buried in the soil for a long time. Whether it sprouts or rots in the soil, it is just a result, a possibility that may occur due to a given cause, and that's all.

Yuan Zhuoyue just wanted to know what kind of quantitative changes had occurred in Morax's eyes that would prompt him to kill her.
