Chapter 252 Talking about the deal again
When Yun Qingqing saw Xiao Changheng for the first time just now, she discovered that his originally pure destiny was now mixed with wisps of black air.
Considering that he said he would be away for a while, Yun Qingqing immediately suspected that something might happen while he was away.
Xiao Changheng had great luck, but the cost of calculating it was too high, and it would be very dangerous with her current level of cultivation, so she called Nan Zheng to come with her, intending to deduce it from him.
As a result, when Nan Zheng entered the room, he saw black air swirling between his foreheads and he looked like he was about to die.
She quickly calculated and deduced their itinerary.
Although she was mentally prepared, the result of "Heavenly Tribulation" was still beyond her expectations.
"What is the Heavenly Tribulation?" Nan Zheng felt scared when he heard the word and couldn't help asking.
Yun Qingqing looked solemn:
"Ordinary evil calamities affect individuals, while heavenly evil calamities affect all living things."
"All living beings..." Xiao Changheng's face darkened, and he said solemnly, "Is something going to happen in Pingzhou?"
Yun Qingqing said in a deep voice:
"Nine out of ten houses are empty, and corpses are everywhere."
Nan Zheng took a breath, and Qiao'er covered her mouth with a low cry.
Xiao Changheng was silent for a moment in shock, and whispered:
"Is it a natural disaster?"
Pingzhou is located in the Central Plains, separated from the border by several states. Given the current situation in the world, it is unlikely that an enemy country would invade, let alone reach Pingzhou in one fell swoop.
However, Yun Qingqing's hexagram showed that nine out of ten houses were empty, corpses were everywhere, and he and his entourage were involved in a life-and-death crisis.
Apart from natural disasters, Xiao Changheng couldn't think of anything else.
Yun Qingqing looked cold and said in a deep voice:
"The hexagram of Tiansha Jie indicates a natural disaster, but this one may not be a natural disaster."
"...What do you mean?" Xiao Changheng was puzzled.
Yun Qingqing didn't explain any further and said directly:
"I'll go with you."
"no!"
Xiao Changheng rejected it outright.
Nan Zheng felt relieved when he heard the princess say that she wanted to go with him, but then he heard the prince firmly object and his eyelids twitched.
Yun Qingqing looked directly at Xiao Changheng:
"I'm not asking for your opinion."
Xiao Changheng: “…”
The air suddenly became colder and silence fell.
The two of them stared at each other for a few moments without giving in. Xiao Changheng took a deep breath and closed his eyes.
"Nan Zheng, you go down first." He whispered.
Nan Zheng gave Qiao'er a look without saying a word, and the two of them immediately retreated.
Xiao Changheng approached Yun Qingqing. She subconsciously took two steps back and found that he was leaning against the wall. She simply stood still and looked up at him.
"You should understand that if I want to follow the team quietly, you won't be able to find me." She said in a light voice.
Anyway, no one can stop her from making a decision. He has always been a sensible person. Is there any need to stop her?
Xiao Changheng leaned one arm against the wall, looking down at her dimly.
"Yun Qingqing, you have reached a bottleneck in your practice, right?"
“…”
Yun Qingqing pursed her lips.
"It has nothing to do with you. I have my own way to get through. Now we are talking about going to Pingzhou..."
"Let's make another deal." Xiao Changheng interrupted her.
"...What?" Yun Qingqing was slightly stunned.
Xiao Changheng's dark pupils were deeper than ever before, as if suppressing endless surging emotions as he met her eyes.
"I can give you all my wishes."
Yun Qingqing's heart skipped a beat and she stared at him in a daze, speechless for a moment.
When did he know about the power of vows?
He wanted to give her the power of will, which meant...
"You..." Yun Qingqing opened her mouth, but was rarely stuck.
"Yes, I am willing to cut off the ties of love." Xiao Changheng's voice was hoarse, "But there are conditions."
Yun Qingqing clenched her fists.
"If you want to stop me from going to Pingzhou, forget it. I won't agree." Her voice turned cold.
The disaster from heaven does not affect the life and death of a few people, but tens of millions of people.
Does this person think that she would disregard the lives of the people of an entire state for such conditions?
"My condition is that you are not allowed to bring up divorce again."
The man's faint voice reached her ears.
Yun Qingqing was stunned again:
"What?"
He was about to cut off all ties with her, but he was still obsessed with not getting a divorce?
She looked into his bottomless black eyes and found herself increasingly confused about this man.
"Yun Qingqing..."
Xiao Changheng closed his eyes, his voice was very low but every word was clear.
"I am attracted to you and would do anything for you except divorce."
"Since my feelings are a burden to you, I will cut them off, and only ask for a promise from you..."
"Be my wife for life, even if it's just an empty title, is that okay?"
Yun Qingqing's thoughts were a little confused. She secretly performed the Qingxin Jue and finally sorted out her thoughts.
She looked into his eyes and said seriously:
"Xiao Changheng, think carefully. Once the emotional ties are severed, you will no longer have any feelings for me. Is it necessary to persist in this marriage?"
"If I still occupy the position of princess, if you fall in love with someone else in the future..."
"Won't."
Xiao Changheng interrupted without hesitation.
"I only have this one condition, no divorce. You just need to tell me, do you agree to this deal?"
Yun Qingqing pondered for a moment and nodded:
"Okay, I can promise you that I won't initiate the divorce."
"But if one day you regret it and want to marry someone else, I won't make it difficult for you."
Xiao Changheng looked at her with gloomy eyes:
"That day will never come."
"Is it settled then?" Yun Qingqing smiled slightly.
She didn't worry about whether he would fall in love with someone else in the future. After all, he hadn't cut off his feelings for her yet, so he was naturally persistent. But he might not think so after they were done.
"Okay, it's a deal."
Xiao Changheng saw what she was thinking, clenched his fists, and stopped arguing.
The room was silent.
Yun Qingqing waited for a few moments, and seeing that the man still had no intention of retreating, she had no choice but to reach out and push his chest.
"Well... since we've already discussed it, you can go back first. I'll let you know when I'm ready."
"...Yeah." The man responded softly, stepped back and turned around.
"By the way, when do we leave for Pingzhou?" Yun Qingqing asked behind him.
Xiao Changheng paused, turned to look at her, his eyes gentle:
"Once you break through the bottleneck, we will set off."
After saying this, he did not stay any longer and strode away.
Yun Qingqing looked at his tall and handsome back. After a while, she lowered her head, looked at her palms, and let out a long sigh.
He is indeed a smart man. In such a short time, he has arranged a new itinerary in Pingzhou related to her.
The duration of Qingxin Jue seemed to be shorter again.
Fortunately, he has made up his mind. As long as he cuts off this emotional bond, it doesn't matter whether they get divorced or not.
Yun Qingqing recalled the conversation just now, suddenly narrowed her eyes and made a gesture.
Not long after, a sudden gust of wind blew up in the house, a ray of green light swept past, and Zhiluo appeared.
"Why are you calling me here so urgently? Is there something wrong?"
Yun Qingqing looked at Zhiluo dimly:
"Did you tell him about the vows?"
Zhiluo’s expression paused.
