I quickly snapped out of my sympathy for Liu Lieyu and realized with a start, what was I just doing?
Although Fei Yan wasn't the person Liu Lieyu wanted, she genuinely loved him and was a good person. It would be great for Liu Lieyu to have her by his side in the future. If it were me, I wouldn't be as good as Fei Yan, since I wasn't the woman Liu Lieyu truly wanted either.
"Are you ready?" Ziye suddenly pushed open the door and peeked at me.
I snapped out of my reverie and gave Midnight a faint smile. "I've been waiting."
"Okay." Ziye came in and placed a set of black clothes in front of me. "Please change into these later and then stay by my side."
"Okay." I took the clothes.
"Youyuan, we have already taken him out and are waiting for you."
The moment I heard the name You, my heart surged with passion, and I couldn't contain myself.
"In a moment, the entire convoy will be ours. You just need to follow the convoy obediently," Ziye carefully instructed.
"good."
"Dele, please change your clothes first." After saying this, Ziye closed the door and left.
After Ziye left, I quickly took off my old clothes and put on the clothes that Ziye had just given me, then pushed open the door and went out.
When Ziye saw me come out, he waved to me, signaling me to follow behind him.
"Just walk with your head down like I do," Ziye whispered beside me.
I nodded knowingly, glanced at Ziye's way, and then followed Ziye's hurried pace.
After a few turns, Ziye followed a convoy.
I glanced up discreetly and saw that the carriage in the middle was exceptionally luxurious, and the entire convoy consisted of hundreds of people.
I wondered who this group was. But after carefully observing the carriage in the middle, I found that there seemed to be no one inside.
I pondered and wondered all the way, and soon I arrived at the entrance of Guixu. Beyond this door lay the world of freedom.
The guards at the gate stopped us. "What's the purpose of this carriage?"
Because I was at the end, I couldn't hear the replies from those before me. I only vaguely heard a few words, which seemed to be about picking someone up, but I couldn't quite make out who they were picking up.
The guard nodded knowingly, waved his hand, and opened the door wide to let us out.
My hands, clenched tightly, were sweaty; finally, I could leave.
As I passed the guards, I broke out in a cold sweat, constantly wondering if they would notice something was wrong with me, or if Liu Lieyu would suddenly appear and take me away.
However, none of what I expected happened; everything seemed to be going incredibly smoothly.
I glanced back discreetly, but the gate to Guixu had long been left behind us and had disappeared without a trace.
Finally, it's out!
I breathed a sigh of relief and asked Midnight beside me, "Where is You?"
Ziye chuckled, "Youyuan has been placed in a secluded place. Please get into the sedan chair first, and we will take you there soon."
I nodded knowingly. "Isn't this sedan chair going to pick someone up? Will it be alright for me to ride in it?"
"What is it?" Ziye smiled and bowed, inviting me to step forward. "You are the most venerable god in the Three Realms, how can you not sit?"
Since Ziye has said so, I no longer refuse and sat in the sedan chair, mainly because I also want to see You as soon as possible.
After I got into the sedan chair at midnight, he waved his hand and the sedan chair was lifted up again.
I lowered the carriage curtain, and the interior was even more luxurious. I took a deep breath; the carriage smelled quite nice.
They moved very fast, and the sedan chair was carried very steadily without any bumps.
The sedan chair suddenly stopped. Had we arrived?
I pulled back the carriage curtain. "Midnight, have we arrived?"
Ziye turned to look at my familiar round face, a slight smile playing on her lips, "We're here, please get down."
We've arrived? I immediately got off the carriage. The place was extremely desolate, surrounded by weeds, with some long-dried trees not far away. What is this?
I looked around in confusion, but didn't see You anywhere.
I turned around. "Where is You?"
Midnight drew out an extremely thin, ice-blue longsword, but it didn't quite resemble a sword; it was more like a stick that tapered from thick to thin.
I swallowed hard, a bad feeling creeping over me. I looked around and saw that the convoy that had just delivered the sedan chair had silently surrounded me.
"Midnight, what do you mean by this?" I instinctively reached for the phoenix flute at my waist, but only touched nothingness.
Liu Lieyu did not return my Phoenix Flute to me.
Ziye raised an eyebrow and smirked, "Weren't you going to see Youyuan? We'll take you there right away!"
"You killed him!" My narrowed eyes widened instantly. I didn't care if they killed me, but they actually killed You too?
He didn't reply to me at midnight, but just kept laughing to himself, his previously honest face seeming to have become a completely different person.
I glanced at the crowd surrounding me and sneered, "You think you can kill me?"
If I hadn't regained my magical powers today, I might have really been doomed!
However, my magic power has been restored, and these people are no match for me.
I just can't understand why they wanted to kill me. Was it Fei Yan's doing? Why would Fei Yan do such a thing?
Since I didn't have the Phoenix Flute, I had no choice but to fight bare-handed. I secretly channeled my magic power, staring intently at Ziye in front of me. "Before I kill you, I want to ask, who ordered you to kill me? Fei Yan?!"
He remained silent until midnight, then simply instructed his men to take action.
Well, he really is a villain who hates people who don't talk much.
If you want to die, I'll grant your wish.
I circulated my inner energy, about to cast a spell, when suddenly I was attacked by a backlash of my inner energy. I coughed up a mouthful of blood, and my body went limp as I fell straight to the ground.
How could this be? I looked at the blood on the ground in confusion, and tried to circulate my inner energy, but I spat out another mouthful of blood.
Midnight laughed loudly, "Don't waste your energy."
"You poisoned me?!" I finally realized what was happening, glaring angrily at Ziye. How could I have been so stupid?! Could it have been the strange fragrance in the sedan chair earlier?
"You finally guessed right this time."
Only two or three people rushed out from the crowd and captured me. Ziye slowly walked forward through the crowd.
"A strange fragrance coming from the sedan chair?"
Ziye shook his head and slowly stepped forward to wipe the long sword in his hand. "I have already tampered with the snacks you eat. You don't usually feel it, but as long as you add the fragrance from the sedan chair, the two will be effective."
I gritted my teeth. So it was all planned all along? "Is it Fei Yan?"
Ziye stepped forward, pointing his sword at me. "What do you say?"
It really is Fei Yan! Why?! Why?! Why must she get rid of me? What threat am I to Fei Yan? I gave her my heart, why must she kill me? Is she afraid I'll come back and steal Liu Lieyu from her? What a joke!
Before I could figure it out, I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my chest. I looked down and saw that Ziye's longsword had pierced my chest. Because I was wearing dark clothes, the bloodstains were not visible, but I could tell that the color on my chest was darker than the rest of my body.
I gave a bitter laugh. Am I really going to die today? Hahaha, I can only blame myself for being stupid! All my calculations have only benefited someone else.
