He took out a pill from his storage ring, swallowed it, closed his eyes, and began to regulate his breathing.
Dark red flames slowly burned on his body, dispelling the cold around him and casting flickering lights and shadows on his face.
David berdiri di samping, menatap profilnya, emosi yang kompleks terpancar di mata ungunya.
He remembers many things.
He thought back to all the things he had done with Su Yuqi.
Dia mengingat pertemuan pertama mereka; Su Yuqi was driving and almost hit herself.
He recalled how Su Yuqi used her family’s influence to protect him in various ways.
In the past, I don’t think I was this good
David menarik napas dalam-dalam, menekan pikiran-pikiran yang berkecamuk di dalam dirinya, berjalan menghampiri Su Yuqi, berjongkok, dan menatap matanya.
“I have a question for you,” David said.
Su Yuqi opened her eyes, her dark red pupils stared at him. He didn’t speak, just nodded slightly.
“Where’s your sister?” David asked. “Ning Zhi.”
Su Yuqi frowned slightly, as if she was remembering something.
“He’s in self-isolation.”
He said in a very gentle voice, “Ever since he was defeated by you on the Fourteenth Heaven, he went into seclusion and never came out again.”
David was silent. This Ning Zhi had chased him from the mortal realm to the celestial realm, and now he had even brought the celestial realm down.
Does he really want to kill me?
Upon deeper reflection, it turns out that they don’t actually have a deep hatred for each other.
Hanya saja dia menghabisi ayahnya, apakah itu masalah besar?
Sebenarnya apa sumber kebencian antara dia dan kamu?
Su Yuqi suddenly asked, with a hint of curiosity in her dark red eyes, “From the Heavenly Staircase to the Celestial Realm, he always wanted to kill you. I’ve asked him, but he won’t tell me. Can you tell me?”
David was silent for a long time.
I don’t know where to start.
“If we talk about my hatred for him, it was a long time ago, from when we were still in the mortal world!” David said.
“Secular world?” Su Yuqi frowned; he seemed to have forgotten the secular world.
He suffers from amnesia and no longer remembers the past.
“You don’t need to know too much.” Seeing Su Yuqi’s confused expression, David didn’t want to tell her too much.
Now Su Yuqi has completely forgotten herself, even the secular world. Berbicara terlalu banyak hanya akan membuatnya semakin bingung dan kesal.
Su Yuqi looked him in the eye and did not ask any further questions.
After resting for about half an hour, Su Yuqi’s complexion improved, and the wound on her shoulder had mostly healed. The dark red crust begins to fall off, revealing new pink skin beneath.
David stood up, brushed the dust off his clothes, and said, “Let’s go, it’s time to go out.”
The three continued their journey south.
The pine forest grew denser, the pebble beach turned into a dirt road, and the dirt road turned into the dry river bed they had once passed on their way here.
The cold of the Northern Dark Abyss was no longer felt; instead, the damp earthy aroma of the Qingyun Mountains and the fragrance of pine sap filled the air.
Sunlight filtered through the gaps in the tree canopy, creating mottled shadows on the ground.
The sound of birds chirping came from the depths of the tree canopy, clear and melodious, forming a striking contrast to the eerie silence of the Northern Dark Abyss.
Ahead, the outline of the Qingyun Mountains was clearly visible. The continuous mountain peaks looked bluish-gray in the sun, and the peaks were covered in snow that never melted all year round. Against the backdrop of the blue sky and white clouds, the scene looked especially majestic.
Berdasarkan peta, jika Anda berjalan ke selatan selama satu hari lagi dari sini, Anda akan sepenuhnya keluar dari Pegunungan Qingyun.
David stopped and turned to look at Su Yuqi.
“What are you going to do next?” David asked.
Su Yuqi was silent for a moment, her dark red eyes stared into the distance, as if she was watching something.
“Return to the Fire Demon bloodline.”
He said calmly, “My people have perished, and I must return to report. The Temple of Light finished them off, and the Flame Demon bloodline will definitely take revenge.”
David looked helpless. If he told Su Yuqi that he was not a member of the Fire Demon bloodline at all, Su Yuqi might not believe it.
Su Yuqi was a fire spirit, which was actually different from the Fire Demon bloodline.
But now, David didn’t know what to say.
“Come with me.” David looked at Su Yuqi with purple eyes, there was a hint of hope in them. “It’s too dangerous for you to go back alone. The people from the Hall of Light must be looking for you everywhere. Your wounds haven’t healed yet, what if you meet…”
“NO.”
Su Yuqi menyela perkataannya, suaranya lembut namun tegas.
David’s words got stuck in his throat, and a glimmer of sadness flashed through his purple eyes.
He looked at Su Yuqi, wanting to say something, but couldn’t say a word.
What reason did he have for him to stay?
