"No, you're not Yinhua!" Liu Lieyu realized and grabbed my wrist with one hand.
Of course I'm not Yin Hua. I couldn't help but roll my eyes. If I weren't worried about the unpredictable consequences of rashly killing Liu Lieyu, I really would have just killed him outright.
I still have a child with Liu Lieyu that I haven't avenged!
Liu Lieyu's phoenix eyes were half-closed, and he now exuded a devilish aura. The crimson at the corners of his eyes made him even more alluring.
Liu Lieyu is still a complete novice. I easily broke free and didn't bother to look at him. So I used a trick to fly up to a tree and sat leisurely against a branch.
Liu Lieyu, standing under the tree, was bewildered when I suddenly disappeared from his sight. He stood there blankly for a long time, but with his current skill, he wouldn't be able to find me even if he stood there forever.
Liu Lieyu is such a weakling. I licked my lips. I really wanted to tease him. Even if I couldn't kill him, I could at least give him a little hardship.
As I was thinking this, I prepared to make my move, but just as I was about to cast the spell, my wrist was grabbed.
A familiar, subtle fragrance wafted over, and I sighed, turning around to look. Sure enough, it was You.
"What are you going to do?" You's gaze was unusually serious.
I pouted unhappily. What could I do? I just wanted to teach him a lesson a little. Did he have to be so fierce?
I turned away and ignored him.
Yu also realized that his attitude towards me was a bit too serious, so he let go of my hand.
I pulled my wrist back and looked at it, and saw a red mark around my wrist. I couldn't help but tear up.
"I'm sorry." You apologized after a moment of silence, her slender fingers stroking my wrist.
The next second, my wrist was as white as ever.
"It's nothing." I blinked, took You's hand in return, and explained, "I didn't mean to kill Liu Lieyu. I just wanted to teach him a lesson."
"Okay. I understand." You looked at me gently and reached out to rub the top of my head.
I glanced down at the tree; while I was talking to You, Liu Lieyu had already left.
Should we leave now?
"Um."
You told me that the way back was the same as the way we came, but the place might not be the same as where we came from.
After all, it possesses the ability to travel through time, so it would be unbelievable if it were so easily found by others.
It's time to say goodbye to everything here.
Can the Soul-Stealing Jade really make Nv Xin's soul leave? I thought of Nv Xin's appearance again, how she just threw the Soul-Stealing Jade to us like that?
I always had a feeling that Nvxin knew everything, and that all of this was within her expectations.
What exactly does she want to do? Kill Liu Lieyu? But given her abilities and Liu Lieyu's feelings for her, killing him doesn't seem to require such complicated methods.
"You." I tugged at You's sleeve. We were both standing on the clouds, but You was the one doing the work, while I was leaning against her, lost in thought.
"What's wrong?"
"If the Soul-Snatching Jade can extract Nv Xin's soul, why don't we give Nv Xin's soul to Liu Lieyu?" I was surprised by my own clever idea.
You gave me a strange look. "How did you come up with this method?"
Can I say it's because they're the male and female protagonists of a novel I transmigrated into? And it's the kind of tragic love story...
Stay away from the main characters, it's for your own safety...
"I think Liu Lieyu and Nv Xin have been entangled for so long, so why not give Nv Xin to him? That way, Liu Lieyu won't be keeping an eye on us anymore."
You lowered her eyes and remained silent.
"What's wrong? Is this idea bad?" I tugged at You's sleeve again. Could it be that You is reluctant to part with it?
You pressed my hand down and sighed helplessly, "If one day someone else takes over your body and seals your soul away, do you know what I would do?"
I met his dark, deep eyes, his warm breath brushing against my face. My face flushed involuntarily, and I stammered, "I...I don't know..."
You smiled, a smile as beautiful as spring flowers in full bloom and a gentle breeze caressing your face, making the world lose its color. "You really don't know?"
Why are you laughing so smugly for no reason?
I turned my head away, refusing to look at You's handsome face. Even after all this time, I still find it as irresistible as when I first saw him.
Ahhhh, I'm hopeless at being a sucker for good looks.
A low, deep laugh rang in my ears, and moist lips brushed against my earlobe, seemingly unintentionally.
"Stop it." I gently pushed against You's stiff chest. "Aren't we still looking for our way back?"
His cool, dark fingers pinched my chin, forcing me to look him in the eye. His eyes sparkled as he solemnly said, "If you don't know, I'll tell you."
I wanted to lower my head, but You's fingers gripped my chin tightly. I could sense that what You was about to say would make me blush and feel happy.
"If anyone has done this to you, I will search the heavens and the underworld to find your body and soul. I will make those who harmed you wish they were never born, and make them pay for your sins." My heart skipped a beat, and I stared blankly at the ghost in front of me.
After You released me, I suddenly understood what You meant. You wanted to tell me, after I gave Nv Xin's soul to Liu Lieyu, would Liu Lieyu treat me like this?
Or perhaps...
"What are you spacing out about?" You asked when I didn't speak for a while.
I blinked. "You, did you just mean I shouldn't give Nv Xin's soul to Liu Lieyu?"
You chuckled softly, "So that's what you've been thinking about all this time?"
I nodded. "Yes, I've been thinking about it."
You vigorously ruffled my hair. "Don't think about it. If you want to give it to me, then give it to me."
"Huh? Didn't you just say you were worried Liu Lieyu would cause us trouble?"
"I'm not afraid of him, I'm worried about you." You leaned down and kissed my cheek. "I'm afraid you'll leave me."
I held tightly to You's sleeve. "I won't leave you."
"Yes, I know." You kissed the end of my hair and then stopped talking.
I know that You is afraid that my soul will really return to where I belong, just as they said. My hometown is a different world to You, beyond the nine heavens, with countless stars in the Milky Way. Where will they find my lonely soul?
"You, I won't cause you any trouble. I'll do whatever you say." I said softly. I thought You wouldn't hear me, but to my surprise, You replied calmly, "You're not a trouble at all."
I tightened my grip on You's hand, as if that would allow me to hold onto him, as if that would make me never leave this place.
But I underestimated Nvxin and overestimated myself.
