Little Black's story continues.
Haotian infiltrated the city lord's mansion and encountered a little elf with vacant eyes.
The collar around her neck, a symbol of slavery, was particularly glaring. Haotian's appearance also caught her attention, but she made no sound. Her expression remained numb, like a breathing corpse.
And this little elf... is none other than the High Priestess you saw earlier, Linglong.
Diefang and the others' pupils contracted slightly. They only knew that Linglong seemed to love their master as much as Chu Xinqiao did.
This was their first meeting.
A weak, numb spirit, abandoned and having lost everything, encounters a woman with an independent soul who observes the world.
Fortunately, after several harrowing upheavals, Haotian finally arrived before the city lord.
After the city lord hurled a string of foul words, Haotian launched his final attack.
Oh, and it's worth mentioning that there's also Linglong in this room.
After Haotian left, guards carried Linglong to the city lord's room.
It's a melodramatic hero-saves-the-damsel-in-distress scenario.
Just as it was about to be ruined, Haotian appeared and interrupted everything.
And then Xiao Hei took action, blasting that trash city lord into dust right in front of Linglong, and setting off a magnificent fireworks display for her in the city lord's mansion.
As the shackles around Linglong's neck came off, a different emotion appeared in the eyes of the young elf.
She fears loneliness, fears the strong, fears being manipulated, and similarly, she fears betrayal once again.
But... Linglong still tugged at Haotian's sleeve.
From then on, she began to cultivate under Haotian's guidance.
Haotian stayed in the city for a few more days and saw many, many other sides of it.
The seemingly innocent townspeople also kidnap elves; their apparent innocence is a facade.
When they were in a good mood, they could take Haotian in and provide her with a place to stay, but when Haotian brought disaster upon them, they began to hate her.
Their nature is selfish and self-serving. It is precisely because of their help, acquiescence, and participation that this city is full of bound slaves for their amusement or to please the city lord.
In the end, Haotian left this place. She didn't change much; she only destroyed a city lord and rescued an elf girl.
Whether the future new city lord will lead the city's people towards true simplicity or continue living a dirty life under the guise of simplicity is no longer within her control.
Subsequently, Linglong witnessed Haotian's talent, and Haotian learned about her past.
They practiced together, and the light began to return to the eyes of the silly elf.
They traveled to many, many places together and saw many, many things.
They made a promise and each had their own goals.
Linglong returned to the Elf Clan, and Haotian began to appear on this vast stage of the world.
Xiao Hei yawned and said lazily, "The story is over."
Well, it's definitely not because she's sleepy and wants to go to sleep.
Then, ignoring their attitude, Xiao Hei slowly flew away.
Only Diefang and the other three remained, looking at each other in bewilderment.
Suddenly, Xiao Hei, who had gone out, turned back.
Four cold lights suddenly flashed, and the next moment four scales the size of tokens appeared in front of the four of them.
"Oh, I will not accompany any of you tomorrow. If you are no match for me, you can use these four scales to communicate with me."
After saying that, Xiao Hei left again.
Diefang and the other three did not discuss the story much because it was mediocre and clichéd—a typical hero rescuing a damsel in distress, even though the hero did not intend to do so.
They knew their master must have been quite intense at the time, but in Xiao Hei's words, it sounded like a children's play.
The four discussed tomorrow's plans and decided that Diefang, Wenxin, and Xinyu would each set off with the army separately, while Xiaofangying would stay behind. If she received a request for help from any of the three, she would seek help from the Human King Palace or from Xiaoqi.
Finally, they left Diefang's room and returned to their own rooms to rest, because they would be going into battle early the next morning.
Xiao Hei observed the behavior of all four of them.
In the darkness, Xiao Hei had transformed into human form, her figure proud and graceful, standing quietly high in the sky. She shook her head with a look of regret at the four people's behavior.
She knew that Diefang and the others hadn't grasped the main point of the story.
Chu Xinqiao, standing behind Haotian, listened quietly to Xiao Hei's story.
Only then did she realize why Linglong, that elf, harbored such greed for Haotian.
This is clearly the white moonlight that saved her.
But she also knew that Xiao Hei seemed to be trying to highlight one thing in this story: betrayal.
Linglong becomes a slave because of betrayal, Haotian faces a crisis because of betrayal, and the evil of human nature is revealed.
In a filthy world, two people who grow together make a pact to eliminate the filth.
...
Chu Xinqiao knew this wasn't the time for awkwardness, so she gently kneaded Haotian's hand and rubbed her face to comfort her.
Haotian's expression didn't change much; perhaps such a story was just a trivial matter in her world.
Suddenly, Haotian turned his head and looked at Chu Xinqiao.
There seemed to be a strange emotion in her clear, black and white eyes, which shone like jewels.
"Hey, Xinqiao, you won't betray me in the future, will you? You'll let me... leave this world peacefully."
Chu Xinqiao was taken aback.
betray……
Plain and uneventful...
Her nose tingled with emotion.
She gently took Haotian's hands and placed them on her lower abdomen, then embraced her tightly from behind.
"No...no..."
"Is it that they won't betray me, or that they won't let me leave peacefully?"
...
Chu Xinqiao took a deep breath of Haotian's breath.
It has a delicate fragrance and a soft, supple body.
Chu Xinqiao knew that leaving quietly was to let those who loved her accept her departure and not let the world cry for her.
Let go...of her.
But is it possible...? Can I let it go?
Feeling this warmth, Chu Xinqiao finally responded slowly.
"None of them..."
