Chapter 915 Because He is Xu Quan
Just as Wei Changtian expected, while Zhang San was "dozing off" outside the door, Zhili quietly found Xu Quan.
In the moonlight, the two looked at each other, one a little anxious, the other a little surprised.
But perhaps he had guessed that Zhili would come, Xu Quan, who was lying on the bed, quickly shook his head and said with difficulty:
"Demon King, don't worry about me, just go away."
“.”
Even though his acupuncture points were sealed, he was still able to move and speak.
This was certainly not because Xu Quan had any powerful means, but it was entirely because Wei Changtian intentionally let him go and deliberately did not seal Xu Quan's several secondary meridians when he attacked.
Otherwise, how could the two of them "confide in each other" when the latter couldn't speak or move? "I won't leave. I can't watch you die like this."
With her eyebrows slightly furrowed, she answered decisively, "I checked when I came here, Wei Changtian was already asleep."
"I'll have my men meet us outside the city. As long as we can escape from the city, he won't be able to find us even if he finds us."
"Okay, now is not the time to talk about this. I'll take you away from here now."
As he spoke, Zhili took a step closer and stretched out his hand to carry Xu Quan on his back.
But as soon as she touched the latter's arm, she felt Xu Quan's resistance.
"Demon King."
Xu Quan gritted his teeth and pulled his hand back. His eyes were very determined, and it seemed that he had made the decision long ago as well.
"Thank you for saving me."
"But I won't run away. I can't run away. I can't run away."
I won’t escape, I can’t escape, I can’t escape.
Xu Quan said three negatives in a row, representing three different reasons why he would not run away.
Not running away is a subjective factor.
Xu Quan felt that he was the one who was wrong to Wei Changtian first, so he should bear the corresponding price.
In other words, even if Wei Changtian wanted to kill him, Xu Quan thought he "deserved it".
The reason he couldn't escape was undoubtedly because he was afraid of implicating Xu Suisui.
As Xu Quan's only relative in the world, Xu Suisui's position in Xu Quan's heart is self-evident.
Xu Quan knew very well that if he really succeeded in escaping, Wei Changtian would definitely vent his anger on Xu Suisui.
So even if it was just for his little sister, he couldn't escape.
Finally, as for "cannot escape", this is easier to understand.
Xu Quan knew Wei Changtian's methods very well and understood that the probability of him escaping was slim, even with Zhili's help.
And if the escape fails, the consequences will undoubtedly be even more serious, so it is better not to take the risk.
Based on the above three points, Xu Quan finally made the choice of "not escaping".
Although Zhili didn't know the specific reason, he could tell from Xu Quan's eyes that he was not trying to show off, but really had no intention of escaping.
".good."
In the bright moonlight, Zhili was stunned for a moment, then gently withdrew his hand.
She did not ask Xu Quan why he did not run away, but just looked at him and said seriously: "But if Wei Changtian really wants to kill you, I will still try my best to save you."
".Demon King, why are you doing this?"
His eyes froze, Xu Quan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "You don't owe me anything, those three holy fruits should have been returned to you."
"To be honest, I am actually guilty of you for taking away your four holy fruits."
"So you really don't need to do anything for me anymore, and you don't have to feel guilty about it."
"I chose this path myself. This is just my personality. It has nothing to do with you."
"Also, how Young Master Wei will deal with me has nothing to do with you."
"But I still want to remind you, if you really want to get those three holy fruits back, don't disobey the young master."
"At least this way you should be able to save your life."
"Okay, hurry up and leave. If you don't leave now, people will notice you."
Waving his hands weakly, Xu Quan quickly finished what he wanted to say.
It is hard to tell whether he said this because he really felt that this matter had nothing to do with Zhili, or because he did not want Zhili to be implicated.
But in Zhili's heart, the reason is undoubtedly the latter.
"you"
She bit her lip and recalled the scene when Xu Quan placed the holy fruit in front of her during the day. A hint of tenderness that she had never had before flashed in her eyes.
In fact, she also understood that what Xu Quan said was true and she owed Xu Quan nothing.
If it weren't for Xu Quan and Yang Liushi, the holy fruit would not have been snatched away at all, and he would not have been threatened by Wei Changtian.
In other words, she was the victim, and the man in front of her could only be considered to have "gotten what he deserved."
But Zhili just couldn't feel any hatred towards Xu Quansheng. Instead, he... "Well, I understand."
He nodded slightly, took a deep breath, and his expression gradually became calm.
She seemed to have figured something out and took a few steps back as if she was about to leave.
But just before she pushed the door open and walked out, she turned back, looked at Xu Quan, and said word by word: "But I still won't let you die."
"If Wei Changtian really wants to kill you, he has to kill me first."
“.”
The moonlight was still there, and the white corner of the skirt disappeared into the gap of the slowly closing door, leaving only Xu Quan with a dazed expression.
The latter looked at the door that closed again, and after a long while he slowly closed his eyes.
At the same time, "Husband! Why is Xu Quan so dull!"
In the guest room next door, Yang Liushi tightly grasped Wei Changtian's sleeve, muttering indignantly and excitedly: "Zhili has made it so clear! Doesn't he understand other people's thoughts?"
"How stupid! Not even one ten-thousandth as good as you, my husband!"
"Well"
On the side, the smile on Wei Changtian's face froze instantly.
"Liu Shi, are you praising me or scolding me?"
"Of course it's a compliment."
Yang Liushi blinked her eyes and said, "My husband used only one poem to trick me into his hand."
"And several of your sisters were also deceived by your husband and fell in love with him in just a few moves, right?"
"Look at Xu Quan again. Even after Zhili said so, he was still hesitant."
"Humph, no wonder you haven't found a wife yet."
“.”
With a light snort, Yang Liushi expressed her "dissatisfaction" with Xu Quan's dullness.
Wei Changtian touched his nose in embarrassment, thinking that Yang Liushi's ability to "point fingers at others and curse them" was becoming more and more advanced.
"Okay, no matter what, Xu Quan must know Zhili's intentions now, and our goal has been achieved."
He sighed helplessly in his heart and quickly changed the subject: "Let's go back to the room and sleep. Remember to find Xu Quan and explain everything to him tomorrow morning."
"I remember it."
Yang Liushi looked at the wall again and waved her hand to remove the illusion array.
After the eavesdropping, the two quickly returned to their room, washed up and lay down on the bed.
After staring at the roof for a while, Wei Changtian was about to fall asleep when Yang Liushi suddenly turned over and asked in a puzzled voice:
"Husband, how come Zhili fell in love with Xu Quan?"
"I'm not saying that Xu Quan is a bad person, but this is a little too sudden."
"Zhili wanted to kill him the day before yesterday, so why is he willing to sacrifice himself to save others today?"
"Is it because Xu Quan returned the holy fruit to her?"
Resting her head on Wei Changtian's arm, Yang Liushi was looking forward to him giving her a reasonable explanation to answer the question that had been bothering her for a quarter of an hour.
However, Wei Changtian just curled his lips and replied, "Nonsense."
"Because he is Xu Quan."
“.”
"My husband, what kind of reason is this!"
"What I said is true. If he wasn't Xu Quan, believe it or not, Zhili wouldn't care whether he lived or died."
"I don't believe it!"
"If you don't believe me, go to sleep!"
After saying the last sentence, Wei Changtian quickly closed his eyes.
Yang Liushi still kept her eyes open, muttering in confusion:
"Because he is Xu Quan."
“What kind of reason is that?”
