Luo Jiujiang: "..." It seems that dragons like playing with balls, which is something engraved in their nature. It is understandable that his father-in-law, the dragon god, rolled his weapon into a ball for both playing games and fighting.
Back in the heart of the mountain, Luo Jiujiang himself had been tossed around like a ball by the dragon phantom, so he could empathize with the Five Elements Essence. Seeing that Han Qianling seemed to have stopped playing, he immediately took the Five Elements Essence from him and returned it to the little fellow, saying, "It's okay, you'll get used to it. It's nice to revisit it once in a while, isn't it?"
The Five Elements Spirit: "..." Wuwuwu, that's not the case at all! How can you humans be like this? That's not what you said when you wanted to acknowledge me as your brother!
The little guy ran away sadly holding his original body. Luo Jiujiang placed a trace of spiritual consciousness on the essence of the five elements, and turned around to talk to Han Qianling.
"I didn't know you liked playing ball before."
Han Qianling said calmly: "I don't really like it, I just fiddled with it when I saw it."
Luo Jiujiang suppressed his laughter and didn't expose his stubbornness. He just changed the subject sympathetically: "Since I brought him out here, I naturally have to take good care of him. I originally wanted to give him a name, but thinking about his origins, I feel it's more appropriate for you to name him."
Han Qianling's brows twitched slightly, and he asked in surprise, "He still wants a name? Besides the ball, what else does he want to be called?"
"...Don't be like this, Qianling." Luo Jiujiang pushed him helplessly, "Why do you have such a big opinion about a little kid? You just met - and don't you like him?" You just showed off your skills by tossing his real body around.
Han Qianling said thoughtfully: "Too obvious? Then I will be more careful next time."
Luo Jiujiang: "...Hello."
Hearing Luo Jiujiang's dissatisfied voice, Han Qianling's expression changed slightly. He unconsciously tightened his grip on Luo Jiujiang's hand, and his eyes revealed some of his emotions.
"It's just hard for me not to think about the fact that you were separated from me for a whole year because of this incident." Han Qianling said quietly. Before Luo Jiujiang could say anything, he added, "And I know that he was the one who took you away from that mountain."
"..." This is indeed the case. Maybe it was for fun or for some other reason. The Five Elements Essence could not get rid of the chaos that had contaminated its body, and it did not want to stay stuck in one place all the time. So when it left, it also packed up Luo Jiujiang who was wrapped in chaos and took him away.
But for Han Qianling, who was outside the mountain, he must have been extremely frightened when he found that Luo Jiujiang suddenly disappeared out of thin air.
During this year, Luo Jiujiang found joy in suffering in the center of chaos. He first raised the sun and then held the moon, built a small world and fought against chaos repeatedly. It took him a year to get rid of it.
Although Han Qianling was not under any kind of imprisonment, his longing and worry for Luo Jiujiang must have tormented him constantly, tormenting him greatly. A glimpse of his life over the past year could be seen in the way he held Luo Jiujiang's hand tightly, stubbornly refusing to let go.
Luo Jiujiang's eyes softened, and he felt an indescribable bitterness in his heart. However, Han Qianling continued to speak. He whispered, "Jiujiang, you don't keep your word... You missed your seventeenth birthday and didn't give me your seventeen-year-old self on that day."
“…”
What Han Qianling was referring to was a promise that Luo Jiujiang had once made to Han Qianling.
He once told Han Qianling that the most unique birthday gift at the age of sixteen was each other. During the three years in the Holy Land, the most precious gift they gave each year was their prime selves.
But the years of fighting against chaos made Luo Jiujiang miss his and Qianling's birthday.
He had promised.
Luo Jiujiang closed his eyes, and his lowered eyelids hid the changing emotions in his eyes - first guilt, then something more intense.
Han Qianling had barely heard Luo Jiujiang's breathing change when he was pinned to the ground by the back of his head. Luo Jiujiang pulled his hand out of his grasp and instead pushed his shoulder. The force wasn't strong enough to keep Han Qianling from moving. He was willing to grant Luo Jiujiang's wish at any cost.
Luo Jiujiang's sudden exertion of force was so fast that the two of them suddenly changed their postures, which immediately startled dozens of butterflies that were nesting around them.
In a trance, Luo Jiujiang seemed to smell the sweet scent of the butterfly spring water just like these butterflies.
But the scent was not only sweet but also familiar, sweet but lingering, like the first breath deeply inhaled into the lungs after a fresh snowfall, fresh and fitting, sweet without the slightest bit of vulgarity.
Then Luo Jiujiang suddenly realized that this smell was not from Diequan, but from his Qianling.
"I'll compensate you." Luo Jiujiang whispered into Han Qianling's ear: "The Luo Jiujiang who was on his seventeenth birthday is gone, but I can still compensate you with this one now."
"It doesn't matter if you want to, whether it's a day or a night. If you want to make trouble until the Holy Land is closed again, I won't say anything. I will compensate you for everything - my Master of the Cold Palace, if you don't want it?"
Han Qianling's fingers moved slightly, and he felt something resting on his palm. Luo Jiujiang had tucked his belt into his hand. The belt was like some kind of materialized temptation, and with a slight tug, it would be completely untied. And when Han Qianling tilted his head slightly, he was met with Luo Jiujiang's warm lips.
