Chapter 145
Thinking of the kiss in her memory, Su Ci didn't know how to face Zhou Yan.
It was clearly just a change in appearance, but the feeling he had was different...
He pursed his lips and simply ignored Zhou Yan for the time being. He withdrew his gaze and looked at himself who was tied up with chains.
Those chains are seals that suppress the huge resentment in the land. Once the seals are lifted, the resentment will break out of the ground again.
These grievances have accumulated for tens of thousands of years. Once they break the seal, it will not be easy to suppress them again.
Su Ci frowned.
If this is the case, we cannot get back all his power at the moment, so we can only seal it temporarily.
He threw the mask back, and the man in red raised his hand to catch it. His eyes moved between him and Zhou Yan, with a smile in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, as if he was watching a show.
Su Ci looked at him helplessly.
The soul that was stripped away by him was the most rational part of him, so he was able to keep his mind clear despite the erosion of resentment, and guard here for tens of thousands of years without causing any trouble.
Therefore, he can also act as if it is none of his business at this moment.
"I'm clear about what happened in the past." Su Ci said, "Let's get back to the topic."
"Okay." The man in red nodded.
"You need to stay here temporarily until you resolve most of your grievances, then you can regain your freedom."
They can also reintegrate.
"Um."
The man nodded, but a trace of melancholy appeared on his face. "With the spirit of resentment gone, I'm afraid the days ahead will be much less fun..."
“Chirp!”
At this time, a clear bird call was heard.
The three of them looked in the direction of the sound and saw a chubby little tit poking its head out of Zhou Yan's pocket, its pair of small black bean-like eyes blinking.
When the little tit noticed that the three big guys were looking at it, it froze slightly, then retracted its head.
The red-dressed man stretched out his white hand, and the little fat bird that had been hiding in Zhou Yan's pocket fell into his palm, curled up into a furry ball.
"This little devil bird is so cute." He said with a smile.
The little fat bird poked its head out from the feathers and looked at the blonde, red-eyed version of Susu who was so close to it. There was a glimmer of light in its small black bean-like eyes, and it was obviously amazed.
"If you like it, then stay."
Su Ci looked at the other self teasing the little tit, and suddenly felt that it would be better to let him sit idle like this and find something for him to do.
He has never had the time to take care of this little tit.
Since it accidentally ran here, it was fate.
However, before the man in red could say anything, the little tit became excited. It flapped its wings and flew back to Su Ci, chirping to express its dissatisfaction and grievance.
Although Su Su with golden hair and red eyes is very beautiful, in the eyes of the little tit, Xue Wei is the most beautiful and lovely person in the universe.
It will never leave its little princess for anyone else!
Just as Su Ci was about to speak, the man in red said, "Little Demon Bird, don't you want to transform?"
Transform...transform?
The little fat bird turned around and stared blankly at Su Su who was tied up with chains. He almost fell from the sky because he forgot to flap his wings.
"Although you were born with intelligence, you seem to have a congenital defect..." Su Su in red said to it, "If you rely on yourself, transforming into a human form will be as difficult as ascending to heaven."
Even speaking human language may not be possible.
The man in red smiled gently and said seductively, "How about it? Stay and keep me company, and I'll help you solve this problem."
The little tit was shaken, and it instinctively looked at Su Ci for his opinion.
Compared to the blonde and red-eyed version of Su Su, it trusts the black-haired and black-eyed Su Su next to it, who is more beautiful, gentle and kind.
Besides, if the red-dressed Su Su can solve the problem, the black-haired Su Su should be able to solve it too, right?
Perhaps seeing through the little chickadee's thoughts, the man in red shrugged and said, "He does have the ability, but he won't have time to help you next, right?"
What else can Su Ci say?
I could only nod and say, "He's right."
The little tit was suddenly torn. It wanted to stay and solve its own problem, but it couldn't bear to leave Xuewei. They had never been separated for more than a day, and Xuewei would definitely be worried about it.
"As for Xuewei, I will explain to her." Su Ci said.
"Besides, she can still come to see you in the future. When you have achieved academic success, you can go back to see her. There is no need to be so sad." The man in red continued to seduce.
Su Ci glanced at him but did not refute.
So, the little tit finally agreed to stay, but before Su Ci and Zhou Yan left, it used Su Ci's communicator to record a video, in which it reported safety to Xuewei.
This crisis was successfully overcome.
However, resolving the resentment has become more urgent... Su Ci turned around, and when his eyes met Zhou Yan, his complicated thoughts paused slightly.
What is meant to come will always come.
Su Ci was not a hesitant person, so he moved directly in front of Zhou Yan.
Looking at the young man in front of him, recalling every detail of the past few days, Zhou Yan couldn't control the corners of his mouth from curling up. He smiled and said, "Susu, you're back to see me."
“…”
Su Ci didn't know what to say for a moment. After living for tens of millions of years, this was the first time he experienced such a strange feeling.
Did he return to Prison Star because of Zhou Yan?
Yes and no.
When he saw the recruitment information on Prison Star, a feeling arose in his heart. That feeling pushed him and made him decide to come to Prison Star even though he had lost his memory.
He had a sense of crisis, knowing that he was needed here and he had to come back.
And it turns out that this intuition was not wrong.
If he hadn't returned, Zhou Yan would have disappeared, and this planet might have been destroyed...
So it seems not wrong to say that he came back for Zhou Yan.
"You..." Su Ci frowned, "What's going on?"
He knew what had happened in the past and had a basic understanding of it, but there was still one thing he didn't understand, and that was Zhou Yan.
Zhou Yan is the way of heaven and the spirit of rules.
He remembered very clearly that tens of thousands of years ago, the day when he separated his soul and sealed the resentment was indeed the day when the Spirit of Rules was just born. Before that, they had not formed any bond.
If that’s the case, then why does Zhou Yan have such strong feelings for him?
Although Su Ci had never had a heart-throb or a Taoist partner for tens of millions of years, he was not an idiot. The way Zhou Yan looked at him, and... that kiss, made him know clearly what kind of feelings Zhou Yan had for him.
This also made him feel confused and puzzled. Where did such strong emotions come from?
Zhou Yan did not answer immediately. He took a step forward, his clear eyes filled with extreme seriousness.
"So, are you willing to give me this chance?"
Facing his approach, Su Ci did not retreat. He just stood there, staring at him intently, and asked, "What opportunity?"
Zhou Yan took a deep breath. He was a little nervous, but his eyes were still firm. At this moment, all the red in his eyes faded away and turned back into pure and gentle platinum.
"I want... the chance to spend the rest of my life with you," he said.
"For the rest of my life?"
Su Ci chuckled subconsciously. He had endured the pain of separation too many times. This word was like a sharp thorn to him.
However, looking at Zhou Yan in front of him, he couldn't say the words that subconsciously popped up in his heart.
How long will the rest of your life be?
He couldn't ask, but Zhou Yan looked at him distressedly and replied in a low voice: "The spirit of rules lives as long as the heaven and the earth."
"As long as you agree, I can stay by your side forever."
"Susu, can I get this opportunity?"
A calm and clear voice came from the communicator that Su Ci gave to Zhou Yan. It was clearly the same voice as before, but now it had a bit more maturity, and... a power that struck the heart directly.
I have to say, Su Ci was moved.
The spirit of rules...lives as long as heaven and earth...
He stared at Zhou Yan deeply. The young man's eyes were so warm, surging with the most sincere emotions. He looked at him expectantly, waiting for his response.
However, Su Ci finally frowned.
"How do you know?" he asked in a low voice. "Why do you know so clearly what I care about and what I want?"
Su Ci did not sense any prying power. He was sure that Zhou Yan had never used any mind-reading ability on him. Then, how did he know his likes and dislikes?
This feeling of being out of control was so unfamiliar that Su Ci felt panicked for the first time.
Seeing the cold expression gradually appear on his face, Zhou Yan felt a little disappointed, but more of it was understanding and heartache.
How could he not know?
After all, he had been watching the man in front of him for millions of years...
Zhou Yan truly became a spirit tens of thousands of years ago, but the awakening of his consciousness occurred much earlier than that.
Since the birth of consciousness, Su Ci was the first living being he paid attention to. Or rather, among so many living beings in the world, only Su Su attracted his attention firmly.
He possesses such a strong vitality.
As soon as he saw Su Ci, he could no longer see anyone else.
Through Su Ci, he learned about joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness, awakened to all the seven emotions and six desires, and realized all the beauty, danger, joy, and pain in the world...
Because of Su Ci's existence, the rules are constantly being improved, and he is constantly becoming stronger.
However, just like the prototype of the book spirit, there is still a long way to go between the birth of consciousness and the true formation of a spirit.
Especially since he is still the void Heavenly Dao, it is even more difficult for him to become a spirit.
He could only watch Su Su silently, watching him silently, from being high-spirited and playful to becoming increasingly lonely and world-weary. He could do nothing but watch silently.
Fortunately, at the last moment, he successfully protected Susu...
And now, they finally have a chance.
Facing Su Ci's icy expression, Zhou Yan couldn't help but feel anxious. He thought for a moment, recalling his previous actions, and said, "I'll explain it to you when we get back, okay?"
The originally clear and peaceful voice had a bit of softness for no reason. Looking at the pitiful look in his eyes as he looked at her, Su Ci seemed to see A Yan acting coquettishly with him.
“…”
Why do I suddenly feel a little soft-hearted?
