Chapter 218: I'll always hold you in my arms from now on.
Ye Fei rested on the spot for half an hour, and then got up to meet up with Huang Rongyu and the others.
She's gone missing; they must be very worried.
Just as Ye Fei was about to send Li Yuan away, he transformed back into the dark-eyed boy and, without saying a word, picked her up in his arms.
"What's wrong?" Ye Fei looked at Li Yuan in surprise.
Li Yuan said, "I'll carry you there."
Ye Fei was both amused and exasperated: "...No, I'm really not that fragile. I can get through this on my own."
"I think so," Li Yuan uttered softly.
Ye Fei: "..."
She sighed. Ever since confirming her relationship with Li Yuan, he seemed to have suddenly been awakened to all his emotions and desires—simply put, he became more clingy than before.
However, she didn't dislike it.
Ye Fei admits that before her rebirth, she was a heartless and cold-hearted person, so after her rebirth, she will definitely cherish what she has now, whether it is family, friendship or love.
"Then I'll trouble you to carry me, Lord Demon Lord." Ye Fei smiled, her eyes crinkling, and she crossed her arms behind his neck, snuggling affectionately into his arms.
Li Yuan looked down at her smiling face, a soft light flickering in his dark eyes: "From now on, I will always hold you."
Ye Fei closed her eyes slightly. From now on...?
It's such a beautiful word that it makes one's mind wander.

Huang Rongyu and the other two searched in the dense forest for another half an hour, but still could not find Ye Fei.
Yu Muhan grew increasingly anxious as she searched, tears welling in her eyes: "Xiao Fei must have been in trouble! Knowing her personality, she would never have let us search for her for so long!"
Huang Rongyu's face turned pale. The image of the girl covered in blood flashed through his mind. He couldn't help but close his eyes and try to banish the image from his mind.
Xiao Fei...where are you?
If you are alright, you will definitely rejoin us as soon as possible.
But why haven't you shown up yet?!
Yun Fusang released her spiritual power, and just as she was about to activate her pupil technique again, she suddenly sensed someone walking towards her. She turned around abruptly and saw a handsome young man in a black brocade robe carrying Ye Fei as they slowly approached.
Upon seeing Ye Fei, Yu Muhan exclaimed in delight, "Xiao Fei! It's Xiao Fei!"
Ye Fei waved to the three of them: "Sorry to keep you waiting."
Huang Rongyu was stunned when she saw Li Yuan carrying Ye Fei towards her. Then, a look of joy appeared on her face, but her heart was immediately filled with endless bitterness.
Why is Xiaofei with Li? Why is Xiaofei being held by him?
Li Yuan gently put Ye Fei down on the ground. Yun Fusang noticed that her right shoulder was wrapped in bandages and went over to support her: "How did you get hurt?"
"It's a long story, I'll explain it to you later."
Ye Fei smiled at the three of them, then turned to Li Yuan and said, "I'm fine now, you should go back to the academy quickly."
Li Yuan didn't speak, but nodded to Ye Fei, his gaze sweeping over Huang Rongyu's face, which was filled with complex emotions, before turning and leaving.
Seeing that he left so decisively, Ye Fei relaxed.
Yun Fusang helped Ye Fei sit down on the ground, and Huang Rongyu asked with concern, "Little Fei, what happened?"
Ye Fei quickly explained to the three of them the situation regarding Gui Ci and Chi Ye being hunted down by the Holy Church.
After listening, the three people all had different expressions.
Yun Fusang looked surprised: "I never expected His Highness the Holy Emperor to appear in Chaotic Cloud Gorge!"
Yu Muhan frowned, seemingly in disbelief: "The Holy Sect... is actually such a powerful force..."
Huang Rongyu was the calmest. He adjusted his sleeves, looked up at the sky, and his eyes held a glimmer of broken light: "The royal family sent people to find the assassins of the Ghost Assassins to hunt me down? That's not surprising."
