Chapter 1085 Wuyou Can Hear
On the way to Mount Kongtong, everyone no longer flew on swords and boats, but instead rode in horse-drawn carriages.
They first returned to the capital to handle their family affairs, and then took their apprentices with them.
Having lost some of his memories, Xie Zheng no longer clung to Song Chunxue, but instead stayed inseparable from his master and senior brother.
Song Chunxue sat peacefully in the carriage with her apprentices, closing her eyes to rest.
Tudan'er and Wuji were driving outside, while Yebai was driving in another carriage.
Inside the large carriage, there were only Song Chunxue and her two disciples, Changfeng and Changyun.
They probably knew about Xie Zheng's situation, because they've been quite cautious and obedient when talking to Song Chunxue these past two days, unlike their usual selves.
Song Chunxue noticed that her two apprentices were also unusually silent, but their gazes would occasionally fall on her, and they seemed to want to say something but couldn't, which made her feel uncomfortable as well.
"Master, does Lord Xie really not remember what happened to you all these past few years?"
"Yes." Song Chunxue opened her eyes. "It's true."
“You were riding in the same carriage before, and now he’s avoiding you like this. What are your plans, Master?” Changfeng asked seriously. “If Lord Xie thinks that female cultivator from Qingyun is more important, how will you handle that?”
"Let nature take its course. It's fate, and we can't force it." Song Chunxue's tone was as usual, calm and unwavering. "I'm about to start my cultivation under my master's tutelage, so these things can be put on hold for now. It's not like I have to do anything with him."
Changyun was extremely upset. "This is outrageous! If we had known that Daoist Qingxuan was such a heartless person, we would have made him taste what it's like to be forgotten."
“How can he just leave like that? Although he was stabbed, he almost severed the bond between two people. How can Master let such a despicable thing go so easily?” Changfeng was also furious. “No, I can’t swallow this anger. Master, tell me where that person is. We must avenge you.”
“That’s right, Uncle-Master, how can you be so calm and composed? Where did the Song Daoist who never suffered any injustice go?” Tu Dan’er lifted the carriage curtain. “How can we justify this without crippling him?”
Song Chunxue smiled. Seeing how much they cared about her, the sadness in her heart lessened considerably.
Her current grievances are not caused by others, and besides, she is not really that wronged.
Having cultivated herself to this extent, would she still feel particularly aggrieved?
Life and death are preordained, wealth and honor are determined by fate; some things are simply destined to go through twists and turns.
The gears of fate grind over your feet; do you think you can chase after them and kick them a couple of times?
She was waiting, waiting for this change to happen, but for what reason?
If it's a test, a way to temper one's character, then she absolutely cannot be in a hurry.
If not, then their relationship simply ended there, and regardless of her feelings, she should accept it as soon as possible.
If Xie Zheng still has feelings for her, she is not the only one who will suffer from this change.
They both needed time to verify a result.
Song Chunxue is indeed easily angered by small things, but she remains calm and rational when faced with big issues.
It would be a lie to say she wasn't heartbroken, but she didn't feel she should be so upset about it.
Perhaps this is the meaning of "If the mind does not die, the Way will not be born"?
"Whoa~"
Wuji shouted.
"Lord Xie, what's wrong with you?"
The carriage suddenly stopped. Upon hearing that it was Lord Xie, Changfeng and Changyun lifted the curtains and looked outside.
Sure enough, Xie Zheng was standing in front of the carriage.
Xie Zheng's carriage was behind them. He suddenly ran up here and stopped the carriage, so he must have something to say to Song Chunxue.
"What are you standing there for? Get down here!" Tudan threw a pebble at Changfeng's head. "Can't you see they have something to say? You have no sense at all."
"Master Xie, if you let your martial uncle down, we won't allow it in the future." Tu Dan'er pointed to the carriage. "Get in the carriage. You've been with your martial uncle the whole time."
Xie Zheng nervously gripped the sides of his clothes and rubbed the fabric with his fingers.
Changfeng and Changyun jumped off the carriage. "Then let's go talk to Yebai."
After hesitating for a moment, Xie Zheng climbed into the carriage. Before he even lifted the curtain, his face turned red, and his neck felt hot.
Tu Dan'er urged, holding the horsewhip, "You go on up, we need to drive the carriage."
Wuji gave him a wink, signaling him not to rush.
Tu Dan'er pursed his lips. What's with all the fuss? When he meets a girl he likes in the future, he'll be too busy rushing to get close to her.
The next moment, Xie Zheng lifted the curtain and stepped into the carriage. He looked at Song Chunxue's expression and carefully sat on the left side.
Looking at his fair and rosy complexion, Song Chunxue felt a surge of warmth in her heart.
She instinctively crossed her arms, wanting to see what he would do next.
Xie Zheng raised his hand to smooth the hem of his clothes on his leg, looked up and met her probing gaze, and immediately panicked and looked around.
If Song Chunxue wasn't afraid of scaring people away, she would definitely have laughed.
I don't know how someone as shy as him could have expressed his feelings so many times back then.
However, it's estimated that if she hadn't taken the initiative to break the ice that time, he wouldn't have made any further moves and would have continued to pretend to be a fellow Daoist.
Thinking about this, she felt much calmer and wondered if this was a good thing for cultivators like them.
[What a load of nonsense! If you think like that, I'll feel sorry for Lord Xie.]
Worry-free's voice echoed in my mind, "Think again."
[Hmm? You can tell what I'm thinking?]
[Hmph, don't worry, I won't eavesdrop on your little thoughts about Xie Zheng, like how seeing his clothes makes you imagine him naked. I'll avoid prying into those things.]
Song Chunxue: ...
To avoid being spied on, you've already revealed it?
Wouldn't that mean...?
"I'm just a sword, just think of me as a pile of scrap metal, don't overthink it." He emphasized firmly and arrogantly.
[Are you really just a sword? You didn't say that before. If I had known you would overhear my thoughts, I shouldn't have chosen you as my master in the first place.]
[Hmph, it's too late to say anything now. I can hear you anyway. If you're so capable, then don't have any thoughts or intentions.]
You're incredibly shameless.
"Besides, do you think this is anything serious? Besides me, who else could hear it? There are gods watching; no one's thoughts are a secret. I'm not going to tell anyone, so what are you afraid of?"
But you can speak! That's the key point: this sword can talk!
Everyone has some thoughts and ideas that they can't share with others. If you offend Wuyou one day, things could get really bad.
[Don't worry, this sword immortal still has principles... Let's not talk about this. Can you really bear to see him so anxious, sad, and upset?]
Song Chunxue looked at Xie Zheng and noticed that he seemed very nervous.
Even if he knows you've consummated your marriage, in his memory, you're just someone he longs for. He wants to explain to you that he really wants to be with you, but he's afraid his words might seem frivolous to you.
Song Chunxue, unusually humbled, asked, "What should I do?"
P.S.: I'm so sorry I had to skip an update yesterday because of something, breaking my record, and I'm really upset. I won't do it again; missing an update makes me sad too. But there was some good news yesterday: the person in charge of the audio contacted me. The audio isn't online yet, but I listened to the first episode, and I almost cried right from the start.
