The gray sky seemed to be brewing a storm.
"Why..." Yin Yang's eyes trembled slightly. She turned around and struggled to push Tian Yi away, staring at him coldly. "I really didn't expect you to ambush me! Master Tian Yi!"
Tianyi looked at Yin Yang; his gray eyes, like the gray sky above, were monotonous and lonely.
Tianyi looked at Yin Yang and sighed repeatedly: "Even if you are reincarnated as a human, you will still be that lonely swordsman."
Upon hearing Tianyi's words, Yin Yang trembled, his heart instantly filled with icy coldness—
Tianyi is right, he is lonely.
Even with Xuan Qing'er by his side, he silently endured it all alone.
—Enduring it all alone!
This is an innate loneliness, a loneliness he has tasted alone for half his life!
As a sword spirit, he is the blade in his master's hand; he needs no emotion when facing enemies...
Therefore, he had almost forgotten that he was a sword spirit, an ordinary sword heart among all things in the world...
They shouldn't even have feelings!
All that sustained him along the way was that memory called "protection"...
but
Is there truly no emotion left in one's heart?
Yin Yang had asked himself many times, what was he now?
The sharp blade in her hand?
Or her bodyguards?
Why are both of these statements so sad?
Yin Yang lowered his head, his gaze trembling slightly. He didn't speak or complain. He silently looked down at the wound on his body inflicted by Tian Yi. Not long ago, someone else had also pierced the same spot with a sword...
Seeing Yin Yang remain silent, Tian Yi grew impatient and continued, "Yin Yang, you've already been rejected by her once. You should know what it feels like to be distrusted."
Yin Yang closed his eyes, and the hatred Xuan Qing'er felt towards him in his memory gradually intensified—
“Yin Yang, you can’t be used by her forever. She will abandon you once, and she will abandon you a second time!” Tianyi continued.
Yin Yang clenched his fists tightly, as if he were making a decision.
"Haven't you ever considered that since you have memories of her in every reincarnation, how can you make her remember you again and again without her knowing? Or fall in love with you? Accept you?"
Yin Yang shuddered, pursed his lips, and remained silent.
Tianyi spoke earnestly:
"Yin Yang, for the better development of the Heavenly Palace, you should cooperate with us. Besides, this is your duty, and I think you can tell what is more important."
Yin Yang remained silent, neither answering nor directly refusing. Seeing this, Bu Yunzhi narrowed his eyes slightly, breaking the quiet atmosphere, and spoke:
"Yin-Yang Executive Officer, for so many years I have concealed myself from the world under the name of Tianfu, conducting numerous Tianfu selections. My purpose is to find promising talents for the Heavenly Palace. If you are unwilling to join our camp, that's fine too, but..."
Bu Yunzhi paused, stroked "Tianhei's" fur, and smiled wickedly, "But I advise you to think carefully about whether you want to become enemies with your former friends!"
Yin Yang frowned as he looked at Bu Yunzhi. "Friend?"
Bu Yunzhi smiled wickedly, "Did I say something wrong? Isn't your master also your friend? Besides—"
Bu Yunzhi raised a hand and pointed at the Sky City, "Those who ascend there will accept the existence of the Heavenly Palace. At that time, your friends Gu Liyan and the others will become your enemies!"
Yin Yang trembled. This was no longer the time for him to choose sides!
When Tianyi heard Bu Yunzhi's words, he turned around and looked at him with a surprised expression. But he saw that Bu Yunzhi's eyes were full of wisdom and his confident gaze left him with no doubt.
“I will consider it…” Yin Yang slowly raised his head and looked at him, speaking into his eyes.
Bu Yunzhi lowered his head and stroked "Tianhei" in his arms, not even glancing at Yin Yang, and said with a smile:
"That's fine then. In that case, let's not bother each other any longer!"
After saying that, he turned and left, carrying "Darkness" with him.
Yin Yang took a deep breath, his eyes filled with exhaustion.
Tianyi glanced at Yinyang, who looked exhausted, and opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something to him, but when the words reached his lips, he didn't know where to start. He could only shake his head, sigh, say "Take care," and then leave with Bu Yunzhi.
Yin Yang watched Tian Yi leave, then slowly raised his hand and gently stroked his chest, where the wound left by the sword was gradually fading.
Although the wounds have disappeared without a trace, only Yin and Yang know that there was further injury and pain there!
Suspected by Xuan Qing'er, whom he had wholeheartedly protected, he almost abandoned the wilderness.
He was regarded as an enemy by his respected master and almost lost his life by sword.
His yin-yang eyes were dim and had lost their former charm.
Looking up at the overcast sky, I suddenly felt dizzy...
——
Xuan Qing'er, who had separated from Yin and Yang, immediately went to the place where she would meet up with Gu Liyan and the others.
Seeing that Gu Liyan and the others were waiting for him, he immediately went up to them.
“I’m not too late after all. This is the mask of the Chosen One that Yin Yang and I snatched. Some of them are fake and I didn’t bring them. The real ones are all here.” Xuan Qing’er handed the mask to Gu Liyan.
"Thank you." Gu Liyan smiled and accepted it, but as soon as he finished speaking, he looked at Xuan Qing'er with a puzzled expression, "Why are you the only one here? Where is Yin Yang?"
“On my way back, I encountered a chosen one. He stopped us, and Yin Yang was afraid we wouldn’t make it to the election, so he specifically asked me to come back first to meet you and give you the things,” Xuan Qing’er said.
