Chapter 76 "Promise me, stay by my side"
Chapter 76 "Promise me, stay by my side"
After half a year, I finally left Zetianzong.
When I came, I was unconsciously carried back to the Tianzong by Luo Wuchen.
When leaving, there is not much difference.
It's just that from a state where I didn't know anything about my situation when I came here, I became well-informed and fueled the flames.
The weather was good that day, the clouds were light and the wind was clear. When we left, people from the Zetian Sect came to see us off.
Of course, I was just the one who got caught by the way.
These priests, one by one, put on a fairy-like appearance.
I can't see the excited appearance of blushing and thick neck in the previous dispute because Luo Wuchen wanted to bring something about me when he went to the Demon Realm, wanting to slap the table and scold him.
"Let's go."
Luo Wuchen took me into the spirit boat, and I turned my head to look at the group of Zetianzong standing at the mountain gate.
The sky was fine and the mountains were clear. Even the elders of the Zetian Sect seemed amiable.
Everything was calm, as if there had never been any waves.
But that's just as if.
I slowly tightened my fingertips, retracted my gaze without hesitation, and looked further away.
It has been less than half a year since I was "brought" back to Luo Wuchen by Luo Wuchen, but in these short few months, it feels like half a lifetime has passed.
After such a long time, I finally stepped out of the gate of Zetianzong.
Half of what I want to do most is done, and the other half will not be known if it will be successful until I get to Demon Realm.
The spirit boat quickly rose above the sea of clouds, and its sight touched Yun Xu, who was mostly as white as milk.
Through the gaps in the clouds, I can see the mountains spreading below. Looking at the huge city from such a high place, it seems that one hand can be held in the palm of my hand.
I blew the wind for a while, and the high place was unbearably cold, even though the wind had been weakened by [-]% by the formation on the spirit boat, I was still so cold that I shrank my neck.
Demon Realm is located at the northernmost tip of the mainland, thousands of miles away from Zetianzong, even Yujian needs to catch up for three days without sleep.
Luo Wuchen could endure it, but I couldn't.
After all, I am just a mortal with no cultivation.
Very fragile.
Needs to be cared for.
That day, Luo Wuchen gave me a spirit sword for no reason, and said that he would take me to the Demon Realm with him.
I thought he was going to unseal the seal of my dantian, at least part of it, so that I could use part of my spiritual power, so that I wouldn't be able to use the spirit sword as a plaything for decoration.
But he didn't.
Luo Wuchen still blocked my dantian and didn't mention a word.
Give me the Spirit Sword, and there will be no follow-up.
Sometimes, I have to wonder if he is a nobleman who forgets too much, and forgets that the reason why I can't use a little spiritual power is because he locked my dantian.
But I also knew that there was no way he could forget about it.
So, he just doesn't want me to have cultivation, and he doesn't want me to have power.
He really was, terrified that I would leave him.
Probably, he also knows very well that once I have the ability, as long as there is a slight possibility, I will definitely choose to try, and I will do whatever it takes to get rid of him and stay away from him.
Therefore, he wanted to cut off my original soaring wings, and tried every means to lock me by his side.
Of course, I guess, he may also have a moment of remorse, remorse that he should not have done all the evil things to me, so he gave me a new one, which is more like an iron sword for me than the iron sword I used to make do with it. A spirit sword that I tailor-made.
It's just that I won't be moved by him anymore——
Yes, I can feel that he is making up for me, or that he is trying to mend the relationship between me and him.
If I were still the Xie Wan who didn't have any memory of the past, I would probably choose to forgive him for the harm he caused me, and choose to start over with him.
But I am not.
Now I have recovered all my memories.
I will never have the slightest nostalgia for him.
No matter what he does, I will just be indifferent.
Xie Wan, who loved Luo Wuchen, was pushed to a dead end by Luo Wuchen himself, and the one left behind only had monstrous hatred and no trace of love.
My heart is as hard as iron, I won't be affected by Luo Wuchen anymore, the more he wants to keep me, the more I want to get rid of him.
I just want to leave him more than ever.
……
It’s not the first time for me to ride a spirit boat, but I really don’t have much experience. The last time I took a spirit boat was 15 years ago. It’s been so long, and I don’t remember the feeling of riding a spirit boat at that time.
I only remember that I spent some ordinary time on the spirit boat - if Su Lianyi's ulterior motives were excluded.
The spirit boat back then was bigger and slower, but now the spirit boat probably belongs to Luo Wuchen alone. There are many fewer rooms inside, but each room is much more spacious.
The spirit boat was moving fast and steadily. According to the speed of the spirit boat, it would take about five days to reach the Demon Realm.
This also means that for at least the next five days, there will be only me and Luo Wuchen in the entire space.
Although it's not that I didn't have the experience of getting along with Luo Wuchen day and night in the past, even so, I still can't get used to it.
Especially after I regained my memory, I couldn't bear the feeling of having Luo Wuchen by my side.
That made me feel tired. When facing Luo Wuchen, all the muscles in my body tensed up, which was both repulsion and fear.
That's etched into my instincts and I can't control it.
Thinking back carefully on my short 19 years, it seems that every step of my life is bound by the fate named Luo Wuchen.
Every critical turning point of mine is because of Luo Wuchen, I came to the Chosen Sect because of Luo Wuchen, I stayed in the Chosen Sect because of Luo Wuchen, I escaped from the Chosen Sect because of Luo Wuchen...
No matter which node it is, I never have a choice.
This time, I want to choose one by myself.
I made a choice and just waited for the final answer to match my choice.
The closer I get to the Demon Realm, the more restless I feel, and I often feel dazed because of ecstasy.
It was so abnormal that even Luo Wuchen could not help noticing it.
"Late night."
Luo Wuchen's long eyelashes drooped and he looked at me intently.
He doesn't meditate and practice, he only knows to pester me every day, and I don't want him to notice that I have recovered my memory, it's all due to patience that I didn't drive Luo Wuchen away from me.
"Huh?" I held back my impatience and smiled gently, "What's wrong?"
Then, I noticed a feeling of uneasiness under Luo Wuchen's calm face.
I am uneasy because I am worried that this time I will still not be able to get rid of Luo Wuchen.
What is the reason for Luo Wuchen's uneasiness?
I can't guess.
Luo Wuchen looked at me silently, and suddenly hugged me tightly, "Will you always be by my side?"
I suddenly hated my sharpness.
If I had been a little duller, I wouldn't have noticed the concern for gain and loss in Luo Wuchen's tone.
I will not be shaken by this discovery, and the income is only a short moment.
But it was really because of Luo Wuchen that his mind was shaken.
Too disappointing.
spineless.
"Why did you say this suddenly?" I was silent for a moment, trying to change the subject naturally.
Luo Wuchen didn't answer, just hugged me tighter, as if I would disappear if he let go.
I patted his arm around my waist and said calmly, "Of course I will stay by your side."
When I was young and ignorant, I dreamed that when I grew up, I would be able to act like the chivalrous warriors in the storybook, and be upright and have no regrets in my heart.
Unfortunately, as I grow older, I am farther and farther away from my childhood aspirations, and even embarked on an opposite path.
Now, even it has become full of lies.
I hate lies so much, but in the end I became a hypocrite who made lies.
How can people not sigh that fate tricks people.
Luo Wuchen slightly loosened his grip on my hand, and looked down at me.
Looking straight at me as if wanting to see the depths of my heart and see through my true thoughts.
"Promise me to stay by my side."
I looked at Shang Luo Wuchen's eyes that seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, and I lied calmly, "Okay, I promise you."
"I'll stay with you."
With my promise, a smile flashed in Luo Wuchen's eyes as if he got his wish.
It's almost like he's in love with me.
I hugged him, two hearts beat together across the chest, one wanted to stay, the other wanted to go.
There is nothing better than this.
Half of the days passed before I knew it, and the distance to Demon Realm was getting closer.
But I was always on tenterhooks, restless because of unknown fears.
It was as if something was about to burst out.
I know that I am worrying unfoundedly.
But I... can't control my cranky thoughts no matter what.
When I arrive in Demon Realm, can I really get rid of Luo Wuchen and never have anything to do with him again?
In the daze of knowing nothing about the future, I finally reached the boundary between the cultivation world and the demon realm.
At the junction of the world of self-cultivation and the realm of demons, there is a city called Xuewu City.
Said it was Xue Wu, but it was actually blood stained.
It is said that there was a wilderness at the beginning, only the monks who guarded the barrier, and with the development of generations, the current Xuewu City slowly came into being.
From a distance, I saw a row of monks standing on the city wall, ready to fight.
The city wall is a thick maroon, like the color covered by layers of blood accumulated over the years.
Probably because of the breakage of the enchantment, the whole city is desolate and desolate visible to the naked eye.
After entering the city, this feeling is even more obvious.
Scattered on the street are monks with serious expressions, and almost no vendors selling...
"Jianzun, you are finally here!"
The city lord of Xuewu City is a white and fat middle-aged monk. He wears a lot of clothes. Looking from a distance, he thinks a ball is rolling.
Seeing Luo Wuchen, he was as excited as a pauper heavily in debt finally looking forward to relief.
When he saw me beside Luo Wuchen, the city lord obviously froze for a moment.
After a while, he asked lately, "Who is this?"
Luo Wuchen said concisely: "My wife."
"Oh, oh," the city lord of Xuewu City listened, and his expression was subtle, and he thought he looked at me indiscriminately, "It turns out to be the wife of Sword Master."
It seems that he is curious about how the sword master has a wife who has no cultivation.
And what I hate the most is the strange sight that fell on me because of Luo Wuchen.
