Deep within the ghostly realm, where snow and mist swirled, two figures appeared without warning.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye, and no one was able to react in time to what had happened.
Holy crap!
"That's so cool!"
Seeing the scene before him suddenly change, as if time travel were happening in a movie, Lu Zhufeng snapped out of his daze and clapped his hands excitedly.
After Xiao Wujie released that phantom clone, they remained in place without moving.
Although he knew that Xiao Wujie had extremely high attainments in supernatural arts, he still advised Xiao Wujie to take another step forward.
Even a highly skilled person like him gets dizzy in this godforsaken place, let alone a dark, shadowy figure.
To everyone's surprise, Xiao Wujie calmly told him that taking even half a step further would be a waste, and that he should just wait patiently.
Just as he was idly waiting with a pout, Xiao Wujie suddenly raised his eyes, grabbed his wrist, and said coldly:
"Hold on tight!"
Then, he felt a blur before his eyes and his body sway.
The next moment, the person appeared here.
They come and go like the wind, covering a thousand miles in an instant—it's so damn exciting!
Yun Mo was the first to react. Seeing the phantom clone and Xiao Wujie appearing on the spot, he roughly guessed what had happened.
Seeing his slightly dazed gaze, Xiao Wujie smiled gently at him.
"Thanks for your hard work!"
"Teacher...you..."
He spoke with a slight stutter, his gaze uncontrollably drifting to the hand that Xiao Wujie had wrapped around Chu Liyue's slender waist.
No...no way...
"You audacious beast, do you know you almost committed a grave error!"
Lu Zhufeng's deliberately authoritative voice rang out at just the right moment.
Normally, even if Yunmo couldn't beat him, he would still retort a few times.
Why worry about things that don't concern you?
But at this moment he couldn't utter a single word. Lu Zhufeng's words had completely extinguished any remaining hope in his heart, and his feelings at this moment were indescribable.
He wants to bring his teacher's wife home to be his wife?
The female hooligan under the master's wife touched her all over.
He was even prepared to die to kill his master's wife?
Damn, that's exciting!
Xiao Wujie glanced at Yun Mo, whose expression was quite interesting, with a hint of a smile in his eyes. Then, his eyelashes trembled slightly as he looked down at the person he was holding in his arms.
His eyes shimmered slightly, and he tightened his grip on her, pulling her a little closer to him.
He gently rubbed his cold fingers together, then reached out and lightly touched her cheek, as if touching the most precious treasure in the world.
Carefully, yet with unbearable tenderness.
It wasn't until Xiao Wujie's icy fingers touched her cheek and she felt the real touch on her skin that Chu Liyue came back to her senses.
I instinctively grasped that cold hand, trying to warm it up.
His deep, calm eyes rippled with emotion as he murmured softly, as if in a dream.
"My sweet baby..."
Feeling the bone-chilling coldness of his hands and seeing his deathly pale face, her heart skipped a beat.
Then she bit her lip lightly, her voice tinged with anger.
"You're disobedient!"
He was already afraid of the cold, and even a slight exposure could take half his life.
This is the far north, a frozen ghost realm, with temperatures of minus thirty or forty degrees Celsius. How did he manage to get here?
Just as her anger was about to surge and burst forth, she saw the man holding her lower his head, glance to the side, frown slightly, and bite his lip.
His voice was low, hoarse, and suppressed, with a slight tremor.
"It's been more than twenty days."
Upon hearing this, Chu Liyue's body stiffened instantly, as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over her head, extinguishing her anger immediately.
this……
There's still no news.
I……
"Anyway, nobody cares about me, nobody wants me."
Huh? What is that?
As he spoke, a hint of red appeared at the corner of his eye, and his voice became slightly nasal.
The biting cold wind whipped Chu Liyue's long hair, making it flutter wildly, leaving her momentarily disheveled.
She broke her promise to come in half a month.
My phone was left at the base, and I didn't reply to the messages.
They traveled a long way to arrive just in time and even stepped in to protect her.
Is she still going to get angry?
Looking at Xiao Wujie's handsome face again, his eyes were red at the corners, filled with melancholy and bitterness, looking as wronged as a child abandoned by the whole world.
Guilt quickly overwhelmed her; how could she feel so awful and deserving of death?
Perhaps it was because of the howling cold wind, Xiao Wujie coughed a few times, his brows furrowed with discomfort, his expression haggard and listless. Coupled with his aggrieved look, it almost made Chu Liyue feel an urge to atone for her sins with her death.
Suddenly, Chu Liyue felt the hand around her waist loosen, and she saw Xiao Wujie coughing lightly while covering his mouth, looking sad and wanting to get away from her.
She quickly grabbed his cold hand and gently rubbed the back of his hand with her warm palm, trying to warm it up.
At the same time, he spoke softly, somewhat awkwardly:
"My sweet baby..."
"I'm disobedient, I'm not good."
His eyes were misty and his gaze was weak and unfocused.
Xiao Wujie murmured aggrievedly, his hand, which was being held, still struggling slightly.
With a slight pull, Chu Liyue drew him into her arms. At the same time, she unbuttoned her fox fur coat, opened it, and wrapped him tightly in it.
She wrapped one arm around her coat and the other around his waist, holding him tightly in her arms.
Her fair, snow-white cheeks pressed gently against his pale, cold face, her lips lightly kissing his cheek, her voice soft and low.
"Sweetie, don't be sad anymore."
