About three hundred feet away from Li Molin and the other two, Liuli and Shichan looked at each other for a long time without saying a word, the atmosphere was strangely silent.
Time passed quietly, and Liuli gradually came back to her senses from her chaotic thoughts. She couldn't understand the tenderness and reluctance that had filled her heart just now. She really didn't understand why she would feel sorry for him when he had clearly killed her.
Liuli frowned, looking utterly bewildered.
Shi Chan's gentle, smiling eyes were fixed on Liuli, as if he could never get enough of looking at her.
After a long silence, seeing the blank look on Liuli's face, he subconsciously opened his mouth, about to ask her what she was wondering about, when a loud noise suddenly came from afar, instantly interrupting his words.
The loud noise startled Liuli as well. She and Shichan turned their heads almost simultaneously and saw a large area of colorful light shining to her right, illuminating half the sky and driving away a large area of black mist.
Liuli frowned and muttered, "Is someone from the righteous path trying to break the formation?"
Before she could finish speaking, the ground beneath her feet suddenly began to tremble. Then, all the stone pillars in the magic array began to move rapidly, disrupting the black mist that filled the array and producing a series of increasingly loud rumbling sounds.
The stone pillars beside Liuli and Shichan also began to move, moving in all directions in a chaotic but extremely fast manner.
Liuli looked around warily, about to dodge a stone pillar rushing towards her, when a flash of golden light appeared before her eyes and she suddenly fell into a warm embrace. The faint scent of sandalwood lingered in her nostrils, the scent of him.
Immediately afterward, he began to move her around, dodging all the stone pillars that were shifting haphazardly in all directions. Just like many years ago, when rocks were falling like rain from the foot of Lingxiao Peak, he held her in his arms, protecting her from all danger.
Liuli let Shichan carry her around without struggling at all. Even though she could easily avoid the fast-moving stone pillars on her own, and even though she had never liked being close to anyone since her rebirth, it seemed that he was the only exception. Only when he held her did she feel no disgust or rejection, but rather... an extraordinary longing.
If it takes time to fall in love with someone, perhaps it only takes a glance, a fleeting moment, like that first meeting in the dense forest many years ago. She flew until she was only a foot away from his face before revealing herself. Because she was so close, she saw the calm and wise look in his clear black eyes. In that one glance, she was instantly captivated by a pair of eyes that resembled a lark's, and she could never escape them.
If someone is killed by the person they love most and is reborn, forgetting their love for that person and only remembering their deep hatred, how long would it take to give up that hatred and fall in love with that person again?
Perhaps, all it takes is a warm hug, like the warm embrace that came when a sudden storm hit the East China Sea many days ago. Just like now, if he had thought for a moment, he would have known clearly that you wouldn't be hit by the stone pillar, but at the moment of danger, he followed his subconscious instincts, holding you and protecting you.
It turns out that it is so easy for the heart to fall in love. Even if one is reborn, even if there is a blood feud in between, it is still so easy to fall in love with this person.
