David’s heart was stabbed again, the pain made his whole body tremble, but he still didn’t give up.
“That’s not important.”
He spoke softly, his eyes filled with determination and gentleness. Even in the midst of despair, he never gave up. “It’s okay if you don’t remember. I will wait patiently. I will make you remember it. Yuqi, we’ve been through so much together, so many trials and hardships.”
We entered the mortal world together, faced countless life and death crises together, and made a promise under the starry sky, saying that we would stay together for life and never separate. You definitely still remember, you can definitely remember”
He continued to talk non-stop, retelling long-forgotten stories and memories that belonged only to the two of them, every word filled with deep affection.
Sonya frowned deeply, her head throbbed with pain, and the blanks in her memory made her extremely panicked.
But those words, that description, that so-called experience, aroused a growing unease within him, as if something was about to break free from its shackles and awaken.
He didn’t remember it, but the pain in his heart was very real.
Why did hearing these words make him so sad?
Why did he feel compelled to believe it? To believe in past events that he had never experienced?
“Sumiguchi!”
Suddenly he let out a low cry, as if to cover up the panic in his heart, and pushed the tip of the sword forward again!
The tip of the flaming sword pierced David’s shoulder, the flames instantly burning his flesh. Before the blood could flow out, it was evaporated by the fire, and the air was filled with the smell of burning flesh. Intense pain instantly spread throughout his body.
David staggered slightly, a sharp pain shot through his shoulder, but he didn’t flinch or even flinch, as if he didn’t feel the pain at all, and continued to look at Sonya with great tenderness.
He just looked at her calmly, his eyes not filled with resentment or anger, only sadness and tenderness, as if it was the woman in front of him who was hurt, not himself.
Does this hurt?
He asked in a soft voice, full of sadness, as if asking himself if he had hurt her.
Sonya was shocked, and her hand holding the sword stopped.
“It must hurt a lot.”
David continued to talk to himself, his voice as gentle as coaxing a child. Memories flooded his mind, and a gentle smile appeared on his lips, “I remember, you were most afraid of pain”
“Sumiguchi!!!”
Sonya suddenly drew her longsword, and blood finally spurted out, only to be instantly evaporated by the flames. The wound was scorched black, but he didn’t hesitate at all and stabbed again!
This sword attack was faster and fiercer, piercing David’s stomach. The wound was deeper, and the pain was more intense. Demonic flames raged within him, burning his meridians and flesh.
David’s body swayed violently, his face became paler, cold sweat flowed down his forehead, and his breathing became weak. He almost fell from the air.
But he still didn’t shy away.
He just stared at Sonya, his tenderness and sadness undiminished. Even though he was seriously injured and demonic flames were burning within his body, he still cherished her in his heart.
“Yuqi”
His voice was hoarse and weak, but still filled with boundless love. “Do you remember? Long ago, you asked me what I would do if one day you pointed a sword at me and tried to kill me?”
I said, “I’m going to stand there, not moving, and let you stab me. Because I know you won’t really hurt me, you can’t.”
Sonya’s hands were shaking so badly that she could barely hold the sword. The Blazing Sky Sword continued to sway in his hand, its flames flickering. Her eyes were red, and tears welled up, but she tenaciously held them back so they wouldn’t fall.
Why?
Why does this happen?
Why did this person cause him so much grief? Why was he so reluctant to let it go?
Why couldn’t he bear to kill him even though he didn’t know him?
“Stop talking”
He spoke softly, his voice trembling, with a hint of pleading in his tone, “Please stop talking”
He didn’t want to hear it, he didn’t dare to hear it; those words broke his heart, pushing him to the brink of collapse.
But the sword in his hand was once again drawn uncontrollably.
The sword penetrated David’s chest, just a hair’s breadth from his heart. Demonic flames instantly gushed in, burning his heart meridian. If it penetrated any deeper, the fire would penetrate his heart, scorching his soul completely and killing him on the spot.
Blood spurted out and was evaporated by the fire, forming a strange blood mist that stained his clothes purple and his cheeks. The warm blood stains on his skin made him tremble.
