I carefully observed the man in front of me. His body was completely covered by a long robe as dark as ink, and even his hands, which were exposed at the cuffs, were covered by a layer of black gloves. I then shifted my gaze to the man's face, which was hidden by a silver mask. Only a pair of deep, dark eyes and thin, vermilion lips were visible on his entire body.
I think I must be crazy.
I braved the chill and walked up to the man, staring intently into his eyes. I parted my lips slightly and said, "I believe you."
After I finished speaking, I lowered my gaze to the man's lips, took a deep breath, and gently lowered my head to cover his lips with mine.
Ice—that was my first impression. It felt as if I wasn't kissing a person's lips, but a block of ice.
I suddenly opened my eyes wide. I remember this feeling, I remember it...
I hurriedly looked up, and after a moment of calm, I asked, "Have you seen me before?"
The man just looked at me without answering.
I pressed on, "Was it you who was with me that night in Sun and Moon City?"
I remember that night in Sun and Moon City, it felt as if someone had entered my room and kissed me. That person's lips were as cold as the man in front of me, and the chill emanating from him was exactly the same as that night.
Who exactly are you?
The man looked at me for a long time before finally speaking, “The people of Guixu call me Lord Sun and Moon.” He paused and then continued, “In the past, I was called Emperor Jun.”
Di Jun? How is that possible? He's Di Jun?! Then who is You?
"impossible!"
The man gave me a deep look without saying anything, then turned to look at the shadow on the ground.
My brain couldn't keep up; so much had happened.
Originally, You and I were happily waiting for Feng Su to return in the cabin, but unfortunately, it was Liu Lieyu who came instead of Feng Su. Then we escaped, but You died. Suddenly, a man appeared and said that he was Di Jun and could save You.
Everything that's happening now is completely contrary to what I knew. I feel like I'm a piece of duckweed on the water, drifting aimlessly in the world, knowing nothing.
I pulled myself out of my thoughts and stood aside, quietly watching the man's every move. I didn't care who he was, as long as he could save You.
The man reached out and stroked You's face gently and lovingly, as if You were his lover.
The man's complex gaze fell on You, and he took a deep breath as if he had made a major decision.
My eyes widened in disbelief at what was happening before my eyes.
The scene before my eyes was so shocking; I never imagined he would save You in this way.
The man casually placed his hand on You's chest, his beautiful eyes slightly closed, his trembling eyelashes resembling a butterfly ready to take flight at any moment.
The man's figure slowly became transparent, turning into wisps of blue smoke that entered You's body.
What is this? I forcibly suppressed the urge to step forward and stop it. I thought, no matter how bad things get, it can't be worse than You dying.
Moreover, for some reason, I always inexplicably trust the man in front of me; I believe he won't harm You.
In no time at all, the living person who was just in front of us disappeared.
The man had turned into wisps of blue smoke and entered You's body. I stepped forward to observe if there were any changes in You's body, but unfortunately, You's body remained motionless.
I turned my head and stared at Feng Su, my eyes wide. I stammered, unable to contain my hope, "Feng Su, do you think we'll wake up after our tryst?"
Feng Su kept staring at You, her eyes unblinking. In this quiet place, I heard Feng Su swallow hard. "Master, I'm not sure either, but it should be okay..."
Feng Su's words were ambiguous; we all hoped You could come to life, but at the same time, we knew the hope was slim.
We don't even know if things will get worse.
We waited for a long time, but You's body remained motionless, and the man who had turned into blue smoke and entered You's body never came out again.
Feng Su and I went from standing by and watching at the beginning to now squatting in front of You.
Time passed second by second, and Feng Su and I remained in this void, not even knowing how much time had passed.
I reached out a hand to touch You's face. As soon as my hand touched You's face, I exclaimed in disbelief, my face full of surprise. "Ah, Feng Su, Feng Su, look!"
"What's wrong?" Feng Su quickly moved closer to me to look at You's face.
I moved my hand that was resting on You's face a little further. The touch under my hand was different from the coldness before; it had a warm afterglow. This was the body temperature that a living person should have!
"Feng Su, look, You, You..." I was so surprised that I couldn't even say a complete sentence. I just reached out and took Feng Su's hand so that he could touch You.
Feng Su's hand had just touched You's body when her face lit up with joy. "Master, You Yuan, You Yuan, he..."
Feng Su was just as excited as I was, and her words were not coherent.
I looked at You, tears of joy welling up in my eyes again. "You, You's alive!"
“Master.” Feng Su picked up the hand that was touching You.
I sniffed, then withdrew my hand, waiting hopefully for You to wake up.
I even wondered what I should say if You woke up later.
"Owner."
"What's wrong?"
Why is that man nowhere to be found?
"I don't know." I shook my head. The man claimed to be Sun and Moon Lord, and then Emperor Jun. I still don't know if it's true or not, but I have a vague sense of trust in him. Even during the kiss just now, I didn't feel any disgust. "He shouldn't harm us."
"Master, why do you always think he's a good person?" Feng Su asked after a moment's hesitation.
I lowered my eyes and silently looked at You's body, whispering, "I don't know either. I just inexplicably feel that he wouldn't harm us. Maybe it's a woman's intuition?"
Feng Su scratched his head. "Although I don't know anything about a sixth sense, if Master says he's a good person, then he must be right."
I chuckled. Now that You's condition has improved, my mood has improved a lot too. "You trust me that much? My judgment of people isn't that great."
"Who said that? The master is the smartest person in the world and the best at judging people."
I smiled faintly and remained silent. Feng Su was praising me again. I wish I were really as amazing as Feng Su said.
Strangely, You's body temperature gradually warmed up, and her complexion was no longer as pale as before, but was now rosy. Why was she still unable to get up?
"You, You." I gently nudged You's body, but You didn't react at all, just lying there quietly like a sleeping beauty.
"Master, don't worry. Youyuan is so badly injured that it's not easy for him to come back to life. He's probably recovering now, and he'll wake up soon." Feng Su patted my back to soothe my impatience.
