81 Then do you like me to stab you with a sword?

Li Yuan didn't know how to comfort Xue Wuxi.

It's not that he doesn't know how to comfort people. With his emotional intelligence, it's easy for him to comfort people.

But he knew very well that Xue Wuxi didn't need to be comforted, and no matter what he said now, it would be useless.

So he just echoed: "Immortality has its own advantages, otherwise why did you choose to cultivate immortality?"

"I have forgotten..." Xue Wuxi replied lightly.

"It's better to forget."

Li Yuan's bright eyes reflected the warm color of the sunset, and he reached out and gently stroked the cold back of Xue Wuxi's hand, "Some things are more painful when you remember them more clearly."

Xue Wuxi rarely had his back of the hand touched by others. It can be said that he had only let Ji Chen touch it before.

At that time, Ji Chen's first reaction was: "Your hands are so cold. In the future, if I want to drink ice wine in the summer, can I use your hands to cool it?"

But Li Yuan's first reaction was completely different from Ji Chen's.

Li Yuan said, "Your hands are so cold. I'll warm them for you later."

It was not just different, it was completely different.

But Xue Wuxi still pulled his hand back, turned his head and glanced at him coldly, "You are helping me, aren't you afraid that Ghost Eye will find out and kill you?"

"What if it was his idea to let me help you? Just like the last time I treated your injury, it was his idea."

Li Yuan had an unpredictable smile on his face, and he said it as if it was true.

"He won't do that." Xue Wuxi saw at a glance that Li Yuan was lying.

"He really didn't ask me to do this." Li Yuan was a little sad, and finally told the truth: "Actually, it's really difficult for me to be caught between the two of you."

"On the one hand, I have to think about how not to offend him, and on the other hand, I have to think about how to protect you."

"Now it's okay, you've become stronger and don't need my protection anymore."

"So..." Xue Wuxi hesitated for a moment before asking the rest of the question: "Do you really like me?"

Li Yuan did not answer directly, but pointed to his waist and abdomen where he was still aching from being pinched, and smiled softly: "If I didn't like you, how could I let you abuse me like this?"

Xue Wuxi turned her face away from him and whispered: "You asked for it."

"Yes, I asked for it."

Li Yuan didn't want to dwell on this with Xue Wuxi, and suddenly asked: "Ji Chen's attitude towards Gui Tong has become so cold. I guess you should have not only eliminated his feelings for Gui Tong... but also made some hints or seals."

Xue Wuxi's head, which had just turned away, turned back in an instant, and the shadow of the residual sun surged in his pupils, and he narrowed his eyes slightly, "How do you know?"

"Guessed."

Li Yuan knew that he guessed right, and quickly said: "Don't worry, I won't tell Gui Tong."

"But since you have already accepted that he doesn't love you, why do you still want to hinder them?"

"You should know very well who your master has in his heart, right?"

"I don't know." Xue Wuxi said coldly: "He can't like Gui Tong, he just feels guilty." "If he

doesn't like her, why would he feel guilty?"

"My master is a good person, so even though he knew that Gui Tong was a ghost, he still felt guilty for all the injustices he had done to Gui Tong. Is there anything wrong with that?" Xue Wuxi was still trying to defend himself.

"Okay, okay." Li Yuan found that Xue Wuxi, who was always very frugal with words, was actually quite talkative.

"But you don't know, when Guitong didn't recognize him at the beginning, he took the initiative to take off his clothes and kissed Guitong. He said it was for healing, but there are countless ways to heal injuries, but he chose the most... um... that one."

"Take off clothes? Kiss!!" Xue Wuxi was shocked: "How is it possible!"

"Do you know why?" Without waiting for Xue Wuxi to reply, Li Yuan said again: "He is the initiator of the cold injury on Guitong's body, and only he can heal this injury."

"But he didn't need to use such a radical method, but he used it without thinking. Because... only this method of using the soul and physical contact can make Guitong get rid of the cold injury as quickly as possible."

"Isn't that still guilt?" Xue Wuxi still insisted on his point of view and never changed.

"I don't think so." Li Yuan smiled, and his handsome face softened as his eyebrows curved. "So I guess he likes Ghost Eye."

Then he quickly added: "Of course it's just a guess."

But although it was a guess, he actually secretly looked at more details than this, and he was 80% sure that he liked her. He

just didn't realize it.

Xue Wuxi suddenly fell silent.

Along with Xue Wuxi's silence, the last ray of skylight also dissipated above his head, and everything returned to the original color of the world.

The deep red no longer existed.

Xue Wuxi's vision became blurred, and he couldn't even see Li Yuan's face clearly.

He could only vaguely feel that Li Yuan still had the residual warmth of the sunset on his body, surrounding him and bringing him the last bit of warmth.

"It's just a guess..." Xue Wuxi still didn't give up, but his voice was as weak as the moonlight that had just risen.

He could accept that Ji Chen didn't like him, but he couldn't accept that Ji Chen liked Gui Tong.

Seeing Xue Wuxi fall into grief and pain again, Li Yuan suddenly felt a pain in his heart and realized that he might have said something wrong.

He originally just wanted to persuade Xue Wuxi to remove the hint or seal on Ji Chen, so that Ji Chen and Gui Tong could have a good talk and resolve the misunderstanding.

This imminent battle between immortals and demons would not have to be fought.

- Many fewer people would die.

But he couldn't bear to continue to tear open Xue Wuxi's wounds.

He gave up his previous thoughts and changed his words to comfort her: "Yes, it's just my guess. It's possible that you are just feeling guilty."

"Anyway, everything is still uncertain now. Maybe you still have a chance... Don't give up too early. I won't tell anyone about our relationship. You can also pretend that nothing happened. We can just maintain our previous relationship. I don't mind."

Xue Wuxi remained silent and lowered his head again.

Pretend that nothing happened...

Xue Wuxi really thought so.

He was originally afraid that Li Yuan would keep pestering him, but now that the other party took the initiative to ask for it, that was just fine.

However, for some reason, he blurted out an extremely childish question.

"If we two were to fight and you were just watching from the side, who would you help?"

"Who would you help?" Li Yuan looked at Xue Wuxi's serious face with amusement, but answered the question irrelevantly: "How dare you say I'm three years old?"

"Your question is something that only a five-year-old child can ask."

Xue Wuxi glared at him coldly, and even put two fingers of his right hand together, ready to attack.

Li Yuan was cautious this time, and subconsciously stood up and jumped away, fearing that he would be hit by the "Soul-Breaking Finger" again.

This move was originally his original move, and now, not only was it stolen by Xue Wuxi, but it has also become his habitual means to deal with himself.

"You reacted quite quickly this time." Xue Wuxi was actually just trying to scare him and quickly stopped.

After Li Yuan found out that the other party was just trying to scare him, he leaned back with a grin on his face, but he had no intention of sitting down.

"The beauty is already in the True Immortal stage now, I'm sure I can't beat her... There's no need to use the "Soul-Severing Finger" every time, right?"

"Then do you like me to stab you with a sword? "

Well...it depends on where the sword you use comes from..."

Li Yuan was actually trying to tease Xue Wuxi. He was afraid that Xue Wuxi didn't understand, so he emphasized: "Although your technique is terrible, I have to say that the result is quite comfortable..."

After hearing this, Xue Wuxi became angry out of shame.

Mainly because of "shame"!

"If you dare to say another word, I will cut off your tongue with "Shuanghua"! "

Li Yuan found Xue Wuxi quite cute when she was angry.

Such a cold and beautiful woman, who always had no expression, turned out to be furious when she got angry.

Li Yuan laughed twice jokingly, which was considered tactful, and did not continue the embarrassing topic.

However, he still answered Xue Wuxi's "five-year-old" question seriously.

"If one day, I have to make a choice..."

"I will choose you."

Xue Wuxi's heart suddenly had a rare wave, "Why? You two, obviously know each other longer."

"Yes... but I just chose according to my heart."

"What is the reason for choosing me?"

"There is no reason, I just simply like you. "

After Li Yuan finished speaking, he suddenly leaned over and kissed the frost pattern on Xue Wuxi's forehead, "Some likes grow over time, some likes are redemption, but some likes are just pure love at first sight..."

Xue Wuxi didn't have time to hide.

When kissing Xue Wuxi's forehead, Li Yuan's lower body gradually became transparent, and before Xue Wuxi could react, the whole person had disappeared.

But before leaving, he left another message for Xue Wuxi: "Although you no longer need my protection, I will still be by your side, in the name of surveillance... guarding you."

"——Anytime you call."
