The girl stood up from Hua Qingying's chest and wiped the tears from her face with her fingers, very hard, as if to show her determination.
"Aunt, I understand." She wiped the last trace of water from her cheek very seriously, and she tried hard to hide the sadness in her beautiful eyes: "I will be fine... just like the wound left by sword practice, it will hurt at first, but... it will always be fine... it will definitely be fine..."
However, although the sword wound was painful, she was still able to endure it stubbornly at such a young age. Why is it that the more she tries to endure the wound of the heart and soul, the more it pierces her heart and marrow?
Hua Qingying seemed to be able to see through her heart: "Cai Li, you don't need to deliberately forget. Yun Che is indeed an extraordinary person. His peculiarities have surprised me many times. It's not surprising at all that you fell in love with him in such a short time."
"And he is worthy of your affection."
She did not deliberately avoid the word "Yun Che" in front of Hua Caili. Instead, she gave him a very high evaluation: "He made you cry and led you into a calamity, but I can't blame him at all. And his final choice was the most rational, and it was also a protection for you... He really has only a sincere heart for you that cannot help but move you."
"I know, I know everything." The mist in Hua Caili's eyes, which had been dispelled with great difficulty, reappeared.
The sword immortal gently patted the girl's trembling shoulders and said, "You still have three months left in this training. These three months are enough for you to heal yourself. By then, you will be able to face your marriage with Dian Jiuzhi with a clearer mind and more complete emotions."
"When you recall this many years later, you may still feel a little regretful and sad, but more of it will be emotion and gratitude. Your life... Qu Wanxin's daughter's life, this episode should be included."
She had never said so much to Hua Caili at one time.
She had indeed met an extremely good man, and looking back, it was no surprise that she had fallen so deeply in love with him in such a short time.
If Caili is not the Goddess of Zhetian...
She recalled the time when the "Son of God" knelt in front of the temple and begged to give up the title of Son of God...
He failed to do so.
Thus, the once arrogant and foolish Son of God Zhetian, who had no respect or manners, has become the gentle and elegant God Huaxin, like the old pine tree in Jinghu Lake.
She remembered even more clearly that when he learned that Hua Caili had awakened a godhood, a perfect godhood that had never appeared in the history of the Zhetian Divine Kingdom... his first reaction was not joy and pride, but a trace of sadness that almost overflowed from his eyes.
He had long ago chosen a companion for his daughter... the most outstanding, most suitable man in the world, and the man who would treat his daughter the best, in his eyes, cutting off all possible "wrong paths" for her.
She was upset.
Ten thousand years passed, and Hua Fuchen never mentioned Qu Wanxin's name, but she never forgot the past and never forgiven herself.
Hua Caili nodded gently, remembering her aunt's words one by one in her heart: "Aunt, I will. After all... I have grown up a long time ago."
Fragment...
Can it only be a fragment?
Perhaps, it is a great fortune to have such a moment in this life.
Suddenly I understood what they often called love between men and women. Suddenly I felt that the meaningless engagement was so heavy. Suddenly I knew that my identity still had so many shackles. Suddenly I completely understood the questions my aunt asked. Suddenly...
If possible, I don't want to understand anything.
If I could do it again, I would rather never have seen it...
No...I still want to see him...
From Hua Caili's eyes, she knew how confused her mind was beneath her calm words. She did not say anything to comfort her. Although the two words Yun Che left behind under the snow curtain expressed his intention to never see her again, they were undoubtedly too strong a shock to the girl's heart.
The rest is up to time.
After all, they had only been together for a short time, their feelings were shallow, there was no unforgettable memory, they had not been through life and death together, and a few months at most would be enough for their feelings to completely fade away.
"I will stay with you for the next three days, but only three days," Hua Qingying said.
"Okay." The girl nodded: "Thank you, auntie."
“Let’s go.” She took Hua Caili’s hand and turned in the opposite direction of Yun Che.
Hua Caili did not take a step immediately, but carefully folded the belt engraved with the words of light.
"Throw it away." Hua Qingying said, "Since you have decided to end the relationship, you should be determined thoroughly from the beginning. Just like when he left you, he never hesitated and never looked back."
Hua Caili froze in her tracks, and she remained stunned for a long while before she bent down and gently placed her belt on the ground covered with a thin layer of snow.
Hua Qingying nodded imperceptibly and slowly left with Hua Caili.
But after taking only a few steps, the girl's soft hand suddenly broke free from her grasp.
She rushed to the belt and held it tightly in her hand. Her already snow-white hands became even paler as she squeezed them, as if she wanted to merge it into her own flesh and blood.
"..." Hua Qingying looked back and sighed, "This is not a good choice."
The girl, who was always obedient, did not loosen her fingers at all. She whispered, "My mother has been gone for many years, but Father God still often secretly looks at my mother's portrait, and he would look at it for several hours."
"You are different." Hua Qingying said, "Your father and your mother have experienced life and death together, and have fought against the secular world and destiny together. Their feelings have long been deeply rooted in each other. You and he are just a chance acquaintance, and you are attracted to each other... breaking up when the time is right is the best choice."
"It's impossible to completely break it off." Hua Caili stood up and wrapped the belt around her wrist, feeling the faint warmth: "He and I will definitely meet again."
"He has a look that surpasses all the sons of gods, a cultivation base comparable to that of a god-destroyer, and an elemental profound strength that surpasses that of a spirit fairy... How could such a man remain unknown in the future?"
“……”Hua Qingying was unable to refute.
"At that time, my fate was already determined. He might have been accompanied by someone else. The only thing that belonged to me was this piece of clothing."
"Just treat it as... the only thought of this 'episode', okay?"
She looked at her aunt with tears in her eyes, looking so delicate and pitiful, but inside, she was determined not to give in.
Hua Qingying was silent for a long time, just standing there in a daze.
At that moment, her vision became drastically blurred...
…
"Sister Qingying, Fuchen said that you practice the ruthless sword art and have long lost all emotions...Hahahaha, I don't believe it. The difference between humans and abyssal beasts is that humans have emotions. If you are truly ruthless and have no desires, then what is the difference between you and abyssal beasts?"
"My understanding of the ruthless sword art is that you are obsessed with the sword and don't want to share your feelings with other things. Alas, I am different. I am naturally sentimental... In the past, I loved traveling around the world and vowed to spend my entire life stepping on every inch of land in the Pure Land and the Sea of Mist. Later, I encountered ups and downs."
"Hmm... I look at my cute little brother Fuchen, but he is a troublemaker. After leaving him, no matter where I go, even the places I longed for before, I have no interest in them. I always think of him, which makes me have to transfer my feelings to him and I don't want to go anywhere else."
…
"Qingying, I envy you so much. You are heartless and have no thoughts, so you have no worries, no sorrow, and no pain... But I don't want to be like you... Even if it is a thousand times more difficult or painful, I will never regret encountering ups and downs..."
…
"I am an orphan, and he is the Son of God... I never thought that I was unworthy of him..."
"Even if the world mocks me for being foolish and slanders me for having evil intentions...even if the God descends upon me to break my bones and shatter my soul...as long as he doesn't give up, I will never let go of his hand...never!"
…
"Fuchen... Qingying, don't hate him, and don't seek revenge for me... After all, he is... your... Father God..."
"Especially... my sister Qingying... you practice the Merciless Sword... how can you cry... you are not wrong, you never have been... I won't let you blame yourself... that was... not your life..."
"I have no regrets... to have you as my beloved and dearest friends in this life..."
…
"Aunt? Aunt, what's wrong with you?"
The girl's worried call woke her up from her long trance. Hua Qingying quickly turned her gaze back and said calmly, "Forget it. If you want to stay, it's up to you."
She suddenly began to feel a little regretful and even a little scared.
If...if Hua Caili's personality is really like her mother's...
She immediately shook her head. No, even so, the relationship between her and Yun Che was far from that level.
Definitely not.
…
…
In another space, Yun Che stood still, concentrating for a long time.
"Why is your heart beating so fast?" Li Su asked.
“Of course it’s because I’m nervous.” Yun Che responded.
Li Suo was silent, then said: "It seems that what you are going to do next is indeed a big thing."
“Very big.” Yun Che’s eyes were deep.
"How much do you know?" Li Su asked.
“Ninety percent.” Yun Che answered straightforwardly.
Li Suo was speechless for a moment, and after a while he said, "If that's the case, why are you so nervous?"
"Because the remaining one percent is irreversible."
He had promised Chi Wuyao that he would never put his life in danger.
But the one who took this shortcut was Hua Qingying, the number one swordsman under the Six Gods Kingdom, a person who could decide his life or death in an instant.
Yun Che clenched his fingers, making a "crackling" sound as his bones intertwined. He sensed the flow of the abyss dust around him, and the light in his eyes gradually dimmed, as if he had been hidden in the abyss dust.
"We can start now."
…
…
"The core of the First Sword of Zhetian is 'intention'. With intention as the basis, thousands of changes can be derived. The sword moves of the Heaven-asking Sword, Heaven-leveling Sword, and Heaven-controlling Sword that you have practiced can all be integrated into it. Once you are proficient in it, you can even forget about the sword moves and turn them according to your heart and change them according to the battle."
The girl is dancing with a sword; the shadow of the sword is like a rainbow and her sword posture is like a dream.
Hua Qingying watched every sword mark made by the girl's dance, still a little hesitant and disordered, showing the ripples of her sword heart that had not yet ceased.
A gust of cold wind blew by, and Hua Qingying frowned slightly.
The wind in the sea of fog is always gloomy, but just now, it inexplicably made her feel a moment of chill.
She released her spiritual consciousness, radiating it to the surroundings.
But at this moment, a cold wind suddenly blew.
Hua Caili's sword-wielding posture suddenly stopped, Hua Qingying also turned her head suddenly, and they both looked at the sky in front of them at the same time.
What surprised them was not the cold wind, but... the black fog that rolled in their sight!
Less than ten miles away, the sky above the sea of fog had suddenly become extremely dark. Under the dark sky, a large area of thick black fog was slowly rolling...
No, that was clearly Yuan Chen!
The center of the fog sea is the original death abyss. The closer you are to the original death abyss, the thicker the abyss dust becomes. Apart from this rule, the abyss dust exists naturally and evenly like air, and only gathers when you are close to abyss beasts and abyss ghosts.
But the dark fog that could be seen was actually a large amount of dense abyss dust.
That concentration was simply impossible to appear in this area, and was almost close to the deepest part of the sea of fog in Hua Qingying's cognition.
"Aunt, what is that?"
Hua Caili quickly turned to Hua Qingying's side and looked at the strange scene in the distance in amazement.
With her aunt by her side, Hua Caili never had to be afraid of anything, but she didn't notice the coldness in her eyes.
The thick and dense dust was moving while rolling, and it was rolling in the direction where they were.
Hua Qingying's spiritual sense penetrated through layer after layer of abyss dust... but behind the abyss dust was even thicker abyss dust, and even with her powerful spiritual sense, she was unable to completely penetrate it.
Just as Hua Qingying was about to withdraw her spiritual consciousness, a solemn and deep voice came from the sky above the sea of fog...
"The Mist Emperor patrols the sea, all spirits retreat!"
Every word was soul-stirring, like the devil's chant from the abyss.
Suddenly, the beasts in the abyss fell silent, the sea of fog returned to silence, and the gray sky was about to collapse.
