Chapter 1987 Perhaps Useless

At this time, Xia Fuyi had been waiting in the Amber Palace for quite a while.

Unlike the bustling Taixuan Palace, this place is obviously a cold palace.

At night here, there is only clear light all over the ground. The sounds of stringed instruments from the Taixuan Palace can be heard from afar, with only faint echoes left, making it seem as unreal as the fairyland of Penglai.

Xia Fuyi squatted on the beam and stared silently at the closed door below, with a barely perceptible nervousness.

Until the faint sound of footsteps was heard, passing around the winding corridor, and the sound of wide sleeves brushing against the night breeze was clearly audible in Xia Fuyi's ears. Then the footsteps stopped in front of the door, and someone's long shadow was cast in, but after a pause, the door of the hall was creaked open.

Xia Fuyi held her breath unconsciously.

There was a clear light in the quiet night. The man stood in the clear light. He was not holding a wine jug, but even his flying hair was drunken.

Xia Fuyi bit her lip, closed her eyes slightly and felt carefully. After making sure that there was no one else around, she couldn't wait to jump down from the beam.

The former leader of the Tianji Sect's Sword Pavilion, who was a martial arts master with few rivals in the martial arts world, seemed to have learned to walk again in the short distance from the center of the hall to the door. She could almost be described as stumbling, and finally stopped in front of the man's chest. However, her steps stopped, and all those immature and reckless thoughts and emotions that could not wait ran out from her raised eyes, surrounding the newcomer densely.

Chang Sun Chi was startled for a moment, then seemed to come to his senses a little. He stood with his hands behind his back, looking at her silently. His gaze was unfathomable. If it were anyone else, Xia Fuyi would have slashed at him with her sword long ago. But now, she could only frown awkwardly, too nervous to move, and let him look at her. When Xia Fuyi's head was almost smoking, the emperor slowly asked,

"Haven't you left the palace?"

Xia Fuyi grumbled for a long time before saying,

"Caught by Changsun Qingzhao."

Chang Sun Chi remained calm, looking at the girl nonchalantly and said,

"Today is a rare opportunity. I can ask Aze to take you out of the palace."

Xia Fuyi refused outright.

"I'm not leaving."

Chang Sun Chi paused for a moment after hearing this, then slowly smiled.

"Why? The palace belongs to me, not you. What qualifications do you have to decide whether to stay or go?"

Xia Fuyi was speechless for a moment. She was not good at speaking and had low emotional intelligence. She had no idea how to face the rejection and indifference of her lover. She could only say awkwardly,

"I can protect you, just like when we were in Feihua City. My martial arts skills are very high, and I can help you steal Changsun Qingzhao's things..."

She racked her brains, but her voice became softer and softer.

There were so many imperial guards in the palace, and seeing that Lian Tang and A Ze could enter and leave the palace freely under Changsun Qingzhao's supervision, it was clear that Changsun Chi was not completely powerless. He might not need her protection at all. Besides, as for stealing the military token, she had been detained by Changsun Qingzhao for several days. Not to mention stealing the military token, she didn't even know what it looked like, nor where Changsun Qingzhao kept it...

Maybe she is really useless...

The voice, which had been gradually getting smaller and smaller, finally disappeared completely.

The girl drooped her shoulders and head like a dejected little animal. In the end, she could only look at Chang Sun Chi silently, holding on to the last bit of pitiful hope, and asked carefully,

"You really don't need me?"

The moonlight reflected in those eyes was like golden waves, so clear that it reflected in Changsun Chi's eyes, making him dazed for a moment and unable to utter a single cruel word.
