Xiao Le gripped the knife tightly in her hand; the cold blade gave her the only sense of reality.
She looked around and found that the surroundings were no longer a forest, but an old town of wanderers.
As winter approached and the weather turned cold, every house was brightly lit, and the streets were deserted. She stood at the street intersection, looking around blankly.
Xiao Le felt the cold air rushing in from all directions, filling every pore, and the icy chill in her chest made her feel suffocated.
"Fu, Fu Guang..."
Xiao Le called out the name subconsciously, without even realizing that her voice was trembling with fear.
The two words were swept away by the cold wind without making a sound.
Xiao Le's eyes suddenly turned cold.
It wasn't the coldness of anger, but the loneliness of being stripped of disappointment.
She stood on the wide, deserted street, as if trapped between heaven and earth.
Why is she all alone again?
...
"Little Sun? Little Fuguang! Wake up~"
"Hey! Aren't you awake yet? You stinking worm! Third Sister!"
Fu Guang suddenly woke up, his eyes opening and instantly freezing in shock:
"Le... Bao?"
Standing in front of him was eighteen-year-old Chang Le.
Chang Le smiled brightly, resting her chin on her hand and looking at him with dissatisfaction. Her various little gestures were full of innocent and charming coquettishness.
Her face flushed slightly, and she raised her hand to lightly tap his head: "You're going too far! Who gave you permission to call me that?"
Fu Guang's pupils contracted sharply, and he looked around abruptly.
This is a bamboo house in the mountains. Outside, birds sing and flowers bloom, and the grass and trees are lush. Inside, it is antique and exquisitely furnished.
The key point is that this place was clearly destroyed a long time ago!
How could this be...?
"Are you still half asleep?" Chang Le leaned closer. "Or did my dad secretly bully you again?"
Fu Guang stared blankly at her, taking in every detail of her vivid expression, including his own reflection in her eyes.
A young man with long blond hair.
Chang Le patted his chest: "Don't be afraid, just tell me, and I'll get Mom to deal with Dad and help you get revenge... Hmm?"
A trembling hand gently and carefully touched her cheek.
In Fu Guang's eyes, which shone like gold, a ripple of water appeared.
Chang Le panicked: "Oh my god, why are you crying? Oh my goodness, I'm about to cry my eyes out! Don't cry."
Chang Le was at a loss: "Did I make you unhappy? Then I won't force you to smile anymore, and I won't force you to be polite or do anything inappropriate. Please don't cry, okay? It's my fault."
"no."
Fu Guang closed his eyes, concealing the tears welling up in them.
"Not you,"
Fu Guang's voice was hoarse, "It's my fault, I didn't protect you well, I lost you..."
Chang Le looked completely bewildered: "What are you talking about?"
Fu Guang laughed: "I never thought I would see you like this again. It turns out I still feel guilty for not being able to protect you like this."
"My little sun princess is long gone."
"I know you're fake."
Fu Guang's smile vanished: "You shouldn't have become her."
Golden light pierced through his body, and everything around him shattered with a deafening roar.
Fu Guang squinted, and when he opened his eyes again, he moved with lightning speed, grabbing a wing and slamming it heavily to the ground.
"Bang—"
A magnificent, enormous butterfly shattered on the ground, lifeless.
Fu Guang turned around and, amidst the people lying on the ground, took the unconscious Xiao Le into his arms.
His face was so gloomy it could freeze.
The third exotic species in the Thirteen Forests: the Dream Butterfly.
This alien species is very peculiar. They feed on dream energy, and their ability is to create illusions and nightmares, stirring up the deepest secrets or pain in people's hearts.
Despite his vigilance, he ultimately failed to stop the large number of insect eggs that the Dream Butterfly had laid out in the air beforehand.
Xiao Le got infected by the insect eggs and fell into a nightmare.
Fu Guang gently stroked Xiao Le's furrowed brow, and with his other hand, he softly patted her back, his voice gentle and tender:
"Don't be afraid, I'm always here."
"This time, let me teach you, let me be the sun, okay?"
"My sweetheart, I won't lose you again."
"My sweet baby..."
When Mu Liangchao woke up, he saw Fu Guang holding Xiao Le in his arms, their embrace filled with tenderness and affection.
His eyes held a complex expression.
Mu Liangchao only went over after Fu Guang calmed down and waited quietly.
Only Mu Liangchao is awake now.
This is because of Mu Liangchao's special ability. The arrival of the Dream Butterflies changed the moisture concentration in the air, and their release of a large number of insect eggs also made the air turbid.
Therefore, Mu Liangchao realized this, and the illusion thus had a fatal flaw.
Mu Liangchao broke the illusion without much effort.
Mu Liangchao sat down next to Fu Guang and said softly, "So you've known her for a long time. When you took her back to District Nine, it wasn't the first time you met, right?"
Fu Guang did not deny it.
Mu Liangchao looked at him and said, "I have roughly examined her body. She has your Netherworld ability and Time ability. There is also a seal in her brain. Her identity is not simple."
I suspect her background is related to yours.
Fu Guang glanced at him with her cold eyes.
Mu Liangchao avoided eye contact: "Don't worry, of course I won't tell anyone. No matter who she is, she's a member of the Golden Domain. I just don't like being kept in the dark."
Fu Guang patted the back of the trembling little girl in his arms.
Seeing this, Mu Liangchao chuckled: "I'm curious about what exactly happened between you two that made you so worried about her."
Fu Guang paused for a moment, then said only:
