"You figured it out?" Yun Che replied softly, a hint of helplessness and relief in his voice. In reality, he had been dropping hints, intentionally or unintentionally, ever since he'd embarked on this journey. With Qianye Ying'er's intelligence, how could these clues escape her sharp eyes?
"It's actually no big deal. You don't have to be so nervous. After all, she's already experienced life and death, so perhaps she won't dwell on the past anymore." Qianye Ying'er said. Her tone seemed relaxed, but her slightly furrowed brows betrayed her true emotions. It was unclear whether these words were meant to comfort Yun Che or to give herself courage.
"You've already let go of the Brahma Soul Death-Wishing Seal I inflicted on you back then, so I don't think she'll mind it too much. But, the rest... the fault is truly mine. Tracing back to the source, the tragedies her parents experienced were all caused by me. I have no way of refuting that." Qianye Ying'er lowered her head, a look of loneliness and self-blame visible in her expression.
"I'm ready to face her head-on. This time, I hope you won't follow me. This is a dispute between her and me. If you get caught in the middle, it will not only cause you more trouble, but also won't help solve the problem completely." As she spoke, she slowly raised her eyes with a hint of determination in her eyes.
"After going through so much, I'm no longer the unscrupulous me, and she's no longer the same person she used to be. Perhaps the conflict between her and me can be easily resolved." Qianye Ying'er raised the corners of her mouth slightly, forcing a slightly forced smile, and said softly.
Yun Che slowly stretched out his hand and gently touched Qianye Ying'er's face. At this moment, a complex expression involuntarily appeared on his face.
Back then, he'd forcefully resolved the conflict between Caizhi and Qianying. But now, faced with the entanglement between Qianye Ying'er and Xia Qingyue, he couldn't seem to find a suitable reason to intervene. Perhaps, the best solution was for the two of them to face each other alone, open their hearts without reservation, and completely resolve all past grievances.
“Actually, I shouldn’t have kept this from you in the first place. It’s just that Qingyue’s hatred for you hasn’t diminished in the slightest since she fell into the abyss… Back then, it was you and I who teamed up to bury her in this endless abyss, and her hatred for you has only deepened… These past few days, I’ve been constantly thinking about a solution, but no matter how much I think about it, I still haven’t been able to find a foolproof plan…” Yun Che’s face was filled with helplessness, his tone filled with fatigue and worry.
"Letting you face Qingyue directly may be the best method, but it's also the most dangerous. You are both an indispensable part of my life. You are my shadow in the darkness, always accompanying me in the darkest moments; she is my moon in the darkness, bringing me back to the light..."
“…” Qianye Ying’er’s heart suddenly tightened. This wasn’t the first time she had heard Yun Che express his deep affection. However, every time, it would touch her heart and soul, leaving her unable to calm down for a long time.
“Qingyue is now at the True God realm, but thankfully, her cultivation has been temporarily sealed, leaving her with only the strength of the Divine Lord realm. But even so, if she truly has murderous intentions, you must flee. Don’t foolishly stay where you are and wait for death. Remember, your life doesn’t just belong to you; it’s equally vital to me. I will absolutely not allow you to make any mistakes.” After experiencing countless internal struggles, Yun Che finally agreed to Qianye Ying’er’s proposal to face Xia Qingyue alone.
Tears welled up in the corners of Qianye Ying'er's eyes. She nodded heavily, engraving Yun Che's words into her heart and soul.
