Chapter 60 "Chi Wan, are you ignoring me now?..."
"What is the red thread for?" the girl asked unhurriedly. Her gaze fell on Meng Chiwan's fair wrist, which for some reason exuded a dangerous aura, like a snake slowly flicking its tongue.
Meng Chiwan looked at her, then at Yun Xianqing beside her, and suddenly had a guess that she herself could hardly believe.
This state of affairs... She suddenly remembered the question Yun Xianqing had asked her when she was with Zhong Huai: "Chi Wan, what did you call me?"
But Yun Xianqing was clearly right there, so how could there be two Yun Xianqings?
The girl looked at her with a smile on her face, but her eyes were full of gloom.
Meng Chiwan turned her head and suddenly saw Qingyi Immortal Lord slowly lifting the veil under his bamboo hat, revealing his handsome face.
A tiny beauty mark near her eyelashes lifted slightly with a gentle smile, making her delicate face appear even more radiant.
Extremely beautiful, yet with a strangely indifferent feel.
If others saw this face, they would surely think he was a perfect young man, but Meng Chiwan did not think so at the moment.
In fact, in her eyes, every smile on that face was cruel, devoid of any emotion, only filled with exploitation and endless deception.
She can't even tell right now which of his previous words were true and which were false, or whether his interactions with her were out of forced disgust and displeasure.
He only wanted to get something from her. But what did he get? What did he gain by killing her?
She desperately wanted to know this, but couldn't say a word.
So she withdrew her gaze, followed the red line little by little out of Liu Yuan's body, and then slowly walked towards Wei Jiyu, who was looking up at her from the first floor.
At the very least, don't stay here anymore. Don't see Yun Xianqing's face again.
It doesn't matter which one is Yun Xianqing, or even how many Yun Xianqings there are. What matters is that she will make Yun Xianqing pay the price later.
It's disgusting. She felt disgusted by her past affection. If he didn't like her, why did he always develop possessiveness towards her that she mistook for love?
"Chi Wan." Wei Jiyu's voice was soft and gentle, like a light rain in early spring.
She suddenly smiled, and the seed of hope planted in her heart seemed to have grown a little.
Whether it's true or false, as long as she's strong enough, even the false can become true, and no one will dare to deceive her anymore.
As long as it's powerful enough.
Whether it's sadness or anything else, let it all stay in the past. The pain Yun Xianqing inflicted on her at least proves that she is a strong person, that she was not defeated.
She could even stand up and stab Yun Xianqing ten or eight times.
Holding this red thread, the thread wove a winding mark on her hand, like strands of blood or spiritual threads that nourished her.
As she got closer to Wei Jiyu, she suddenly realized that the force binding her seemed to have disappeared.
Therefore, she asked, "Why don't you possess someone else's body?"
“Anyone above the Nascent Soul stage can do it. I guess Chi Wan should be able to do it soon,” Wei Jiyu replied calmly, but when she said the comforting words, her ears still turned red involuntarily.
"I couldn't speak just now, and I couldn't control Liuyuan either," Meng Chiwan said after thinking for a moment.
Wei Jiyu replied earnestly, "Just now I was far away from you, so the red thread couldn't be very effective. Now, as long as you get closer to me, you can speak and move freely."
"Can Willow Garden see us?"
“We can’t see them. But… those two can see us.” Wei Jiyu’s expression became more serious as he looked at the people on the second floor who had been staring at Meng Chiwan. He paused for a moment before speaking.
"Why can Liu Yuan see them, and why can they see us?" Meng Chiwan couldn't understand.
Logically speaking, if Yun Xianqing, like her, entered this illusion from the outside, she should be unable to change anything within the illusion, and Liu Yuan should not be able to see them either.
However, now Yun Xianqing and that girl can clearly change things in the illusion, and can also see her and Wei Jiyu. What's even stranger is that Liu Yuan can also see them.
“They were originally people in this illusion. Now they have simply entered through the Myriad Manifestations Disc,” Wei Jiyu said, enunciating each word clearly.
Meng Chiwan still didn't quite understand: "What do you mean?"
Wei Jiyu glanced at her and continued, "In short, they are acting for us in their original bodies. It could be a play that differs from the truth, or it could be a play that doesn't. Therefore, we can't believe everything we see in this illusion now."
Meng Chiwan nodded, finally understanding a little.
"How were they able to enter through the Universal Compass?" Meng Chiwan asked again.
Wei Jiyu pondered for a moment, then said, "I can't be sure either."
Meng Chiwan did not ask any further questions.
Wei Jiyu suddenly asked, "You know them?"
"I don't know her," Meng Chiwan said calmly.
"Then why...why do they look at you like that...like..." looking at lovers deeply in love...
He didn't say the rest.
Meng Chiwan didn't turn her head: "Never mind. But what can I do to them now? Like, stab them twice, or... just kill them?"
"...It shouldn't be possible. However...if you really want to do something to vent your anger, then you can do it this way..." Wei Jiyu paused before saying hesitantly.
And then...
"Smack."
"Slap, slap."
A slap.
Two slaps.
Wei Jiyu was stunned.
Yun Xianqing tilted her head, her dark eyes seemingly devoid of emotion.
The Immortal Lord Qingyi slapped her once. The girl slapped her twice.
Liu Yuan was knocked unconscious by someone, and no one knew who it was.
A slight blush instantly rose on the girl's cheeks, but he showed no anger. He simply looked at Meng Chiwan and said, "Chiwan likes me so much that she was able to guess it was me."
He was actually laughing.
Meng Chiwan slapped him twice more in an instant. It was just a pity that he couldn't use his spiritual power, otherwise... how could he have spoken to her so peacefully?
Wei Jiyu: "Didn't you say you didn't know me...?"
“An enemy,” Meng Chiwan said.
Yun Xianqing watched the two talking and suddenly leaned closer: "If he hits again, don't talk to him."
Meng Chiwan smiled slightly: "Has the Immortal Lord forgotten what he did? Hitting me is not enough, my hand will hurt. Next time I see the Immortal Lord, I will repay him a hundredfold."
"Does it hurt?" Yun Xianqing looked at Meng Chiwan, suddenly touched her hand, and then let go after doing something. "It doesn't hurt now."
"Let's fight again," said Qingyi Immortal Lord from the side.
Meng Chiwan was speechless and didn't continue. She grabbed Yun Xianqing's sleeve and wiped her hands: "Dirty."
Then she said to Wei Jiyu, "Suddenly I feel that the fireworks you gave me were more beautiful than any fireworks I've ever seen."
Looking at Yun Xianqing again, his expression was inscrutable.
But in the end, he only said in a deep voice, his voice trembling slightly: "Chi Wan, are you ignoring me?"
Meng Chiwan scoffed, "Immortal Lord has never seen the wound on my chest. It's a pity that the medicine Ji Yu gave me was too effective and didn't leave a scar. Otherwise, it would have reminded you of something, which is better than pretending nothing happened and asking me why I'm ignoring you."
She slowly
The girl's veil fell away, revealing some redness and swelling at the corners of her lips. But what was even more striking were her seemingly wounded eyes, which were now filled with gloom, their usual smiles and languidness replaced by a deep melancholy.
"Don't look at me, Immortal Lord. Are you wondering why I didn't die back then?" Meng Chiwan smiled, a genuine smile.
But this smile made Yun Xianqing's hands, which were hidden under her sleeves, tremble slightly.
"Why doesn't the Immortal Lord speak?" Meng Chiwan asked.
Yun Xianqing glanced at Liu Yuan, who had regained consciousness, and with slightly trembling hands, put on her veil to cover the redness and swelling on her cheeks. Then she looked at Wei Jiyu, who was standing to the side, completely bewildered.
Then, the coldness in his gaze vanished in an instant when he looked at Meng Chiwan, and he said softly, "Chiwan, don't you want to know how Liuyuan died? I will definitely put on a good show for you."
The gentle female voice was filled with deep affection.
When Liu Yuan woke up, she was completely dazed: "Who hit me?"
He glanced at the girl beside him, then looked around and realized that Qingyi Immortal Lord, who had come to ask him if he was in pain earlier, had somehow returned to the first floor, as if it were all a dream.
The red thread in Meng Chiwan's hand trembled slightly. Meng Chiwan turned her head and saw that Wei Jiyu had prepared a place for her to sit.
Meng Chiwan sat down next to him, and the two sat side by side, gazing at Liuyuan, much like spectators watching a play from below the stage.
Yun Xianqing stared at the red threads on the two people's hands, feeling as if she were burning a hole through Liu Weijiyu's body.
Wei Jiyu sat there, feeling a chill for some reason, as if something was blowing a cold wind at him.
Meng Chiwan noticed immediately and asked Wei Jiyu, "Are you cold? Aren't we just an illusion?"
“We are in a spiritual state,” Wei Jiyu replied.
Afterwards, the two began to talk as if no one else was around. During this time, Meng Chiwan smiled with her lips pursed, and it was unclear what she was smiling about. However, when Wei Jiyu looked at Meng Chiwan, his eyes were clearly filled with affection.
"Girl, what's wrong?" Liu Yuan asked unconsciously.
Yun Xianqing then realized she had been lost in thought, shifted her gaze to Liu Yuan, concealed the trembling in her fingertips, smiled slightly, and said, "You mean, you're going to Lingjiang Palace?"
Liu Yuan said, "Yes, could you perhaps take me there? By the way, didn't you just ask what the red thread is for? Where did this red thread come from?"
Yun Xianqing's expression turned cold, and she did not answer him.
Liu Yuan continued, "Red thread... what else could it be? Haven't you heard of the Old Man Under the Moon's red thread? It governs marriage. You must have seen a couple in love, right?"
Yun Xianqing stopped laughing completely, and looked at Liu Yuan as if she were looking at a dead man: "The Immortal Binding Rope is too loose, making you too comfortable, isn't it?"
Author's Note: Princess Meng Chiwan: I'm going to beat you up! [Milk Tea]
Yun Xianqing: Thank you, Chi Wan loves me so much. [Lower-eared rabbit head]
After that, Chi Wan should be in charge and won't be led by the nose by Yun Xianqing anymore. The pursuit of his wife should start from here.
