"You..." Perhaps startled by You's expression, he couldn't utter a second word after stammering for a long time.
"What are you all standing there for? Drag him away!"
The immortals behind him then realized what was happening and quickly stepped forward to take one of You's brothers away. This time, he didn't act tough and obediently followed along.
I rubbed my nose, feeling a little confused. Why was You's attitude towards his brother so different this time compared to before?
"Why are you being so fierce? Where did you lock them up?"
You watched the figures of the men escorting his brother away and lowered his eyes. "You're right, they wanted to harm me."
"Huh?" How did You know this time? When I told You before, he didn't believe me at all.
"How did you come to this conclusion?" I asked curiously, looking at his eerily calm face.
“I used the Soul Searching Technique on Liu Lieyu and found out that they had been colluding for a long time. I had been thinking about them before, but it turns out they just wanted to use my body to be reborn.” A mocking smile appeared on You’s face.
"You're all I have left, don't lie to me." You's gaze fell on me, and she tightened her grip on my hand.
I took a step closer to You, and leaned against her chest, where I could hear her strong, resounding heartbeat.
No wonder he said those things to me before, saying that I have many people, while he only has me. It turns out he has been silently enduring so much in Heaven all by himself.
I know very well how much You felt for his brothers, and I can't believe how desperate he must have been when he learned of this. Those were brothers who had trained, grown, and risked their lives with him, even dying for him. But people's hearts are fickle; they might die for you, but the lonely years after their deaths must have been filled with resentment.
What surprised me even more was that You was actually able to use the Soul Searching Technique on Liu Lieyu. I remember that for the Soul Searching Technique to work, the caster's mental cultivation must be superior to the target's, otherwise it can easily cause a backlash.
Has You become this strong?
"quiet."
You buried her face in my hair and lazily asked, "Hmm?"
"Shall we leave? Let's leave the Heavenly Court to Luo and go somewhere where there's no one around?"
"Why do you always think about leaving?" Youman casually patted his back. "This is your home, the place you'd risk your life to protect."
I felt a little flustered and paused for a moment to sort things out before speaking, "I'm tired. I've protected the Three Realms for so many years. I fell from a god to a demon god and then to a mortal. I almost perished. My mission is long over. I only want to spend the rest of my life with you."
After listening to You stroking my back for a moment, her heart seemed to pause for a long time before she finally spoke, "Once I've finished what I need to do, we'll leave here."
"What are you going to do?" I looked up, puzzled.
“We want to live in seclusion, but some people don’t want that. I have to ensure our safety.” You pinched my cheek.
"So you're agreeing to my request?" I looked at You with eyes that lit up instantly.
"Mm." You nodded gently.
"Great!" I exclaimed, jumping for joy. "We can go to the human world! The human world is so much fun!"
You just looked at me with a doting smile, "Keep your voice down, there are so many people around."
I quickly covered my mouth and looked at the people around me.
"Don't worry, I've already set up the barrier."
I looked at You approvingly, "As expected of you."
