Chapter 633: Foresight (Part 1)
Xie Xihe had no memories of Emperor Xi, but she felt she could answer this question.
She turned her gaze and looked directly into Sheng Shijing's eyes. She said calmly, "There is no such thing as should or shouldn't in this world. There is only whether it is worth it or not."
"Since she saved you, she must think it was worth it."
Sheng Shijing looked back at her, and in those pupils as clear and bright as glass, he saw his own reflection clearly.
My heart is swelling up bit by bit.
Finally, he couldn't help but hug her tightly in his arms, wishing he could embed her into his body: "Xi'er..."
Xie Xihe leaned on his chest, and the sound of his steady heartbeat came into her ears, making her feel unprecedented peace of mind.
Suddenly, Xie Xihe's heart moved slightly. He raised his hand and touched his face, lowering his voice and saying, "A Jing, you must remember that in this world, nothing matters more than life and death."
"No matter what happens in the future, the first thing is to live." She looked deeply into his eyes, her voice becoming softer: "Only by living can there be more possibilities."
Sheng Shijing's heart skipped a beat: "Did you figure something out?"
He held her eyes tightly, afraid of missing any emotion in them, and asked in a tense voice: "What will happen in the future?"
Xie Xihe lowered her eyes for a long time, so long that Sheng Shijing thought she wouldn't answer. Then, the cold and casual voice that belonged only to girls rang out, saying, "After activating the Holy Blood, my fortune-telling ability seems to have improved a lot. I saw March 21st of next year."
“The sound of wind, rain, thunder, explosions…all the sounds that represent disaster will begin on that day, and they will also end on that day.”
"I can't be sure what role we will play on that day. The only thing I can be sure of is that I won't die."
She stared into his eyes without blinking and said again, "A Jing, I won't die."
Sheng Shijing's pupils trembled, and he only answered with one word in the end.
He said, "Okay."
good.
As long as she doesn't die, this time, no matter what happens, he will find her and face all crises and difficulties with her.
Not like last time...
As soon as the thought came to his mind, Xie Xihe stood up from his arms.
Xie Xihe landed one foot on the next few steps, the other still in place. He propped his elbow on his knee, raised a finger, and lifted Sheng Shijing's chin. Then, leaning down, he looked down at him and spoke slowly, "So, Mr. Liang, can you tell me, as a celestial being comparable to an ancient god, how did you die so quietly?"
This was the first time she looked at him with such a strong attitude and such a penetrating gaze.
Sheng Shijing felt a little uneasy in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. He clenched his fists and said, "At least eight of the ten Heavenly Fiends were destroyed by the Ancient God Realm. They already had secret methods to deal with them. Although I was discovered a little late, I wasn't ready yet, so I was naturally no match for them."
Xie Xihe had no expression: "Where was she at that time?"
Sheng Shijing found it a little funny and wanted to say that she was you, so why were you still angry with yourself?
But facing her rare serious look, he didn't dare to say anything, and answered honestly: "Emperor Xi would come to Earth every few years to stay for a while. That was exactly when she left the world. By the time she realized something was wrong and rushed back, it was too late."
Xie Xihe continued to stare at him motionlessly for a long time. She lowered her eyes and withdrew her gaze. When she raised them again, she had returned to her usual casual and unfocused state.
He stretched out his hand and pulled Sheng Shijing up from the steps, saying lightly: "Let's go, it's past three o'clock, and it will be dawn if we don't go now."
A flash of light and shadow passed by, and the two people disappeared from the spot.

After being a thief all night, Xie Xihe slept until after dinner time the next day. As soon as she walked out of the room, she saw Fan Jingyun and a familiar figure kneeling in front of her - Fan Yi.
Unlike the usual single-kneeling salute by the Saint's personal guards, this time Fan Yi had both knees on the ground, his hands straight on his sides, his head lowered, looking like he was being punished for making a mistake.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, he quickly looked up, and when he saw Xie Xihe, his eyes immediately lit up: "Miss..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Fan Jingyun's cold voice: "Did I not explain my words clearly enough?"
Fan opened his mouth to speak, but Fan Jingyun didn't give him the chance and continued, "If I wasn't clear enough, or if you didn't hear me clearly, I can say it again."
"I'm no longer the Saint of the Brahma Clan, nor am I even a member of the Brahma Clan. I don't need, nor am I qualified to have, personal guards from the Saint. From today on, you are no longer my personal guards." Fan Jingyun said clearly, paused, lowered his eyes to meet Fan Yi's, and said, "I don't want to see you again."
"And my daughter won't stay in the Brahma tribe to be your Saint Lady, so don't call her Miss."
Her brows gradually furrowed, and she said in a more serious tone: "Now, do you understand?"
Fan Yi's body trembled violently: "Miss..."
The long sword in Fan Jingyun's hand suddenly slashed out, leaving a deep scratch on Fan Yi's arm that was visible to the bone. The anger that he had been suppressing for a long time broke out completely!
"Fan Yi, I know you activated the power of the holy blood in Xi'er's body in order to save me! I know you did it all for my own good! So for the sake of our relationship as master and servant, I won't blame you, nor will I punish you!"
"But that doesn't mean I forgive your actions!"
"On the contrary, I will never forgive you!"
Her eyes were filled with raging coldness and anger as she spoke, "Today, it's because my Xi'er is strong enough and has a strong background that she was able to remain unscathed despite the oppression of the Brahma Clan. But what if she doesn't have such strength and background? What awaits her?"
"It's an endless prison! It's the endless prayers and blessings like a tool! It's the helplessness of having family and loved ones but not being able to get close to them! It's boundless loneliness!"
"I went to great lengths to escape from this cage, and you're bent on pushing my daughter back in?!"
She rubbed her aching head, her face showing fatigue and boredom. She said, "Fan Yi, thank you for your kindness, but I don't need it."
She pointed the tip of her sword at Fan Yi and said in a voice devoid of emotion, "Today, our relationship as master and servant ends. If you continue to pester me, we will become enemies."
Fan Yi's face had already turned pale.
Even though he had anticipated this outcome, he still couldn't help but feel despair when he heard her say these words in person.
He subconsciously looked towards Xie Xihe, but found that the other party didn't even spare him a glance, and was busy eating the lunch that the servant had just brought him.
Fan Yi smiled bitterly but said nothing.
He kowtowed three times in the direction of Fan Jingyun and Xie Xihe respectively, then stood up and left.
