Heng Lin frowned, his deep eyes looked profound, as if he was looking through Chao Li, at something, and seemed to be afraid.
Shangguan Qingwan saw this and stood in front of Chao Li, saying in horror, "No, you can't kill him!"
Heng Lin's eyes darkened, and his resolute jaw became even colder. He said coldly, "Shangguan Qingwan, have you had enough of this?"
Shangguan Qingwan frowned and didn't answer, but she was obviously obedient.
Lower your head.
Heng Lin retracted his sword, turned around and left, saying before leaving, "Follow me!"
Shangguan Qingwan was worried, "What about Chao Li?"
"He can't die!"
Shangguan Qingwan pouted, her brows furrowed in a knot. She turned back to look at Chao Li, dejectedly, "You can't lose, can you?"
Chao Li curled his lips, leaned back, opened his arms, and said in a calm tone, "Next time, next time I'll wear a few more pairs of shorts."
Shangguan Qingwan: ...
Shangguan Qingwan pushed Chao Li away in disgust, then followed Heng Lin obediently.
When they arrived at Henglin's residence, Henglin looked at the girl in front of him with her hands behind her back and her head down looking at her feet, and said nothing.
Shangguan Qingwan couldn't stand this loneliness and asked, "Well, what do you want me to do?"
"What should you call me?"
Shangguan Qingwan's breathing stagnated, and she said reluctantly, "Master...Father."
There was no response from the other side. After a while, Shangguan Qingwan heard a faint "hmm".
"Wan'er..."
Shangguan Qingwan felt a pain in her heart and her eyes became sore.
Heng Lin sighed, "Teacher knows what happened that day. You are blaming me. I apologize to you here."
Shangguan Qingwan looked up in surprise and looked at Heng Lin in disbelief.
Heng Lin still had that cold and aloof look, but when he looked at her, there was a hint of tenderness in his eyes.
Shangguan Qingwan wasn't an unreasonable person. He had apologized to her, so she...
Shangguan Qingwan blinked, pretending to be calm and open-minded, "I'm not angry..."
"Then why aren't you as close to me as you used to be?"
Shangguan Qingwan pursed her lips and said nothing.
Seeing this, Heng Lin said gently, "I hope we can continue as before. Since I've accepted you as my disciple and promised your father to teach you the 'Illusionary Sound Star Art', I will teach you everything I know without holding back. In return, you must trust me and be obedient, just like before."
Heng Lin repeatedly emphasized the past. Shangguan Qingwan looked at him steadily, recalling their past, but a cloud of darkness inexplicably rose in her heart. In the past he mentioned, she had never caught his eye at first. Thinking back on it now, she found that there were clues of the plan that day. The first time he was intimate with her for no reason was to ask her to take him to see Heng Luan.
The second time was that night when he wanted to kill her sister.
Shangguan Qingwan's mind was filled with a sentence. She wanted to ask him, yes, she had to ask.
This determines whether she should stay or not.
Shangguan Qingwan took a deep breath and said seriously, "Master, you want me to believe you, but can I still believe you?"
"Every time you treat me well, you have a purpose. This time, you insist on taking me as your disciple. What's your reason?"
A flame ignited in the girl's eyes.
Heng Lin's pupils shrank slightly, and his eyes darkened.
He said calmly, "I know you've been wronged, and I accepted you as my disciple to compensate you."
Shangguan Qingwan's eyes flashed with disappointment, and she asked unwillingly, "Is it just compensation?"
Heng Lin turned his eyes away and said coldly, "What else?"
Shangguan Qingwan's eyes instantly turned red, and she spoke word by word, "But I like you!"
Heng Lin's long eyelashes trembled slightly, but he didn't move at all.
"Mr. Heng, I don't want to be your apprentice, and I don't need you to compensate me. I just like you. Can't you see that? Don't you know? No, you know. If you didn't know, you wouldn't have taken advantage of my feelings again and again!"
Shangguan Qingwan felt some hatred and resentment.
She looked at Heng Lin intently, wanting him to give her an answer.
Heng Lin looked at her deeply, and there seemed to be a vortex of swallowing people hidden in his eyes. Suddenly, he stood up and walked towards her.
Shangguan Qingwan felt her eyes darken, and the next second, her jaw was lifted up, and she met the man's contemptuous and scrutinizing gaze.
"Shangguan Qingwan, do you know that tempting a god to fall in love will result in divine punishment?"
A trace of fear flashed across Shangguan Qingwan's eyes, but in an instant, she calmed down and said firmly, "I'm not afraid!"
Heng Lin asked again, "But I am your uncle."
Shangguan Qingwan's voice was slightly hoarse, "Yue'er said, we are not blood-related!"
In response to her, Heng Lin gave a very light laugh.
"why are you laughing?"
Heng Lin let her go and suddenly raised his hand and waved it. The scene in front of Shangguan Qingwan suddenly changed.
She and he were suspended in the dark and distant void. Something was falling from somewhere. Shangguan Qingwan subconsciously spread her hands to catch it, and on her white palms were black snowflakes.
"Why are these snowflakes black?"
"Where is this place?"
Shangguan Qingwan looked at Heng Lin.
Heng Lin said indifferently, "Here... is my lust."
Shangguan Qingwan's eyes narrowed.
Heng Lin looked at the snowflakes that filled the sky like cotton wool and said, "The Six Paths prohibition forbids all love and affection. Therefore, except for your father, the desires of the ancestors are all dark and gloomy."
He also reached out to take it, "Every time your heart beats, a snowflake will light up."
"Shangguan Qingwan, if you want the Divine Ancestor's passion and my sincerity, you must light up these countless snowflakes."
"Do you think it's possible?"
…
As night falls, the moonlight in the sky becomes brighter and clearer.
