Seeing this, Old Master Mu only quietly sighed in relief as he took a big step toward the city gate.
The moment he stepped out of the city gate, his eyes widened and were fixed upon Mu Ling.
He died with his eyes wide open, staring at the city gate.
Old Master Mu squatted down, gently raised his hand, and closed Mu Ling's eyes.
"Mu Ling, when this matter is over, Qing Yin will bring you back to the Mu family so that you can rest peacefully."
His voice was filled with grief.
Gu Shi looked at Old Master Mu and felt the sadness inside him. He lowered his gaze and said, "Mu Ling must regret his decision."
'Regret that he had been avoiding the Mu family…'
If he did not hide from them, perhaps he would not have died here.
