Hua Shi's tears this time scared almost everyone except Fang Wei. Over the years, he had only seen Hua Shi bleed, but had never seen this man cry.
As the current leader of the evil ways, Hua Shi has already become one of the most prominent figures in Xuanqing Continent. Most people who don't know him change color when they hear his name, just like the two men who sold spiritual objects before. People who are familiar with him also know that he is mature, reliable and unfathomable. Few people remember that he is actually only over a hundred years old, and among cultivators, a hundred years old is just an ordinary person who has just stepped into the door of cultivation.
However, Hua Shi, who was known to everyone as such, suddenly started crying without warning in front of Zhou Li. Even if Zhou Li had a big heart, he couldn't help being frightened. His expression changed immediately: "What's wrong with you?"
Hua Shi seemed not to have heard Zhou Li's words. He let his tears wet his face and just stared at Fang Wei who was among the group of spiritual creatures for a long time, as if he would lose track of the other party if he just blinked.
The other spirits were also unable to know what was happening. In their impression, the seemingly powerful master just glanced at them, and for some reason his eyes suddenly turned red. The spirits were so scared that they fled from Hua Shi's sight. The instinct to escape danger made them immediately prove their innocence. The butterfly spirit even pulled Fang Wei with it when it fled, wanting to take him to hide.
However, Fang Wei did not move. He gently broke free from Butterfly Spirit's hand, turned around and shook his head, "It's okay."
The butterfly spirit was about to speak again, but caught a glimpse of Hua Shi's eyes cast towards it from the corner of its eye. It did not dare to waste any more time, and quickly flapped its wings and hid with the other spirits. Only Fang Wei was still standing on the railing, under Hua Shi's gaze.
This scene was too confusing. Zhou Li was inexplicably excluded from it. He was stunned for a long time before trying to speak: "It looks like this creature really looks like the one in your portrait. I guess you wanted it to follow you, so you asked it to stay." After saying this, he didn't hear Hua Shi's response. Zhou Li added helplessly: "Although it's not clear who the person in the portrait is, you shouldn't be confused just because this creature looks like him..."
But it was obvious that Hua Shi was not listening to him at all. Before Zhou Li could finish his words, Hua Shi brushed past him and walked quickly towards Fang Wei on the other side.
Zhou Li: "You..."
Seeing that the other party was not listening to him at all, Zhou Li sighed and didn't say anything else.
Hua Shi had already arrived in front of Fang Wei at this time. He had been walking in a hurry just now, but when he came in front of Fang Wei, he suddenly stopped. He was two steps away from the other party. He raised his hand but was unable to touch the other party. It just hung stiffly in the air.
Fang Wei knew that he had recognized him, and he smiled, trying to ease the awkwardness of not seeing each other for a long time, and also to ease the other party's overly nervous mood. However, he quickly remembered that he was still in the form of Rabbit Spirit, and the gentle smile on his face quickly lost its warmth.
Even though he was not the kind of person who cared much about his image, he did find it a little difficult to adapt to the scene of him reuniting with Hua Shi in this state.
Fang Wei sighed in his heart, thinking that if he disguised himself again at this time, he didn't know if it would be too late.
"You..." However, before Fang Wei could sort out these messy thoughts, Hua Shi had already spoken. He felt that his touch would hurt Fang Wei, who was now small. He did not think about why Fang Wei became like this. He was now filled with the thought that Fang Wei had returned. Those words piled up in his throat and rolled several times before finally turning into an incoherent sentence: "I said I would wait for you. I wait for you every day."
Fang Wei's heart moved slightly, and she remembered what Hua Shi said to her when she was fighting the giant beast in the abyss and before everyone left.
He said he would wait for her, and he did so. However, Fang Wei did not expect that he would wait for her in this way. He took over the mess of the evil way, and was busy running around every day to deal with various matters in the entire Xuanqing Continent, mediating the relationship between the evil way and the spiritual way, and also mediating the relationship between humans and spiritual creatures. In just a few short days since he woke up, he had heard too many things about Hua Shi.
Fang Wei couldn't help but even wonder, if it took him longer to come back, or if he really couldn't come back, would Hua Shi continue to wait like this.
Thinking of this, Fang Wei felt that no matter what he said, it would seem frivolous and he would not be able to accurately respond to this affection. He had already accepted too much affection. When he was imprisoned for a thousand years, all the evil people were waiting for him, Xuan Shuzhi, Wen Zhong, Lu Yao, Yi Zhan, Bai Heng, and Jiang Tingwan, they were all waiting for him in their own way, and now there was one more person, Hua Shi.
"Hua Shi." Until the end, Fang Wei could only call out this name solemnly, raised her head and looked at him and said: "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long."
Hua Shi shook his head with tears in his eyes, his voice was choked with sobs, but there was a smile between his eyebrows: "I'm not afraid, as long as I can wait for you, it doesn't matter how long I have to wait."
It was not until he heard Fang Wei's voice that Hua Shicai seemed to finally feel relieved, proving that the scene before him was not his own illusion. After saying this, he seemed to finally realize that there was something wrong with his appearance. He quickly turned his back to wipe the tears from his cheeks, and because of his heavy movements, his clothes even rubbed his cheeks red, and his eyes were even redder, not much different from Fang Wei's appearance as a rabbit spirit.
"I'm not usually like this, I..."
Hua Shi was about to explain in a hurry, but his appearance was even further away from the previous image of the mysterious and steady evil lord. Hua Shi suddenly felt that he had no way to defend himself. He had clearly lived up to the image of an evil lord over the years, but for some reason he was exposed again in front of Fang Wei.
He opened his mouth, not knowing how to start. However, as Fang Wei looked at him, a smile slowly appeared in her eyes.
Fang Wei said softly: "I know."
Hua Shi still felt his face burning. He set his eyes on Zhou Li next to him, trying to get him to come forward to testify for him. However, although Zhou Li was still confused and did not understand what was going on, his years of experience told him that this kind of situation was definitely not something he could get involved in. So without waiting for Hua Shi to say anything, he had already brought a few spirit creatures who were watching the show and quickly sat down next to him.
Hua Shi withdrew his gaze from Zhou Li and looked at Fang Wei nervously again, his heart filled with joy and uneasiness. He felt like a poor student who had handed in an exam paper and was waiting to be graded on the spot. He was eagerly hoping to get a few words of praise for his answer sheet, but was also worried that his performance was not good enough and would be disliked by the examiner.
In the past hundred years, he had never been so nervous, but he had never been so happy either. However, during his complicated psychological struggle, Fang Wei, who was facing him, did not make the comments he expected. He just shook his head and said gently, "Don't worry about these things in front of me."
The words Hua Shi hadn't finished speaking were stuck in his throat. He looked at Fang Wei intently, and the tears that he had just controlled couldn't help but fall again.
He took a half step back, lowered his head and hid his face in the shadows, and said in a muffled voice: "Am I useless? I can obviously handle a lot of things on my own, but when I see you, I still..."
Fang Wei shook his head. He wanted to rub the other person's head to comfort him as usual. However, when he raised his hand, he remembered that he was still a rabbit spirit half the size of a palm. It was difficult for him to touch the other person, let alone rub his head.
He looked helplessly at Hua Shi, who now looked extremely tall in front of him, and gently waved his hand, saying, "Come here."
Hua Shi was still not able to control his emotions at this time. His breathing was a little unstable and his eyes were still very red. He listened to Fang Wei's voice and responded in a muffled voice: "Yeah."
He followed his instructions and came to Fang Wei, who then said, "My body is not very convenient right now, I need you to help me with something, is that okay?"
Hua Shi did not hesitate, nodded, and asked almost devoutly: "What can I do?"
Fang Wei said: "Stretch out your hand."
Although Hua Shi was puzzled, he still stretched out his hand towards Fang Wei as he was told, with his palm facing up, and placed it right in front of Fang Wei's body.
Fang Wei held his raised fingers and stepped into Hua Shi's palm.
Hua Shi's heartbeat suddenly quickened. Looking at the tiny Fang Wei standing in the palm of his hand, he felt a slight itch in his palm, as if a cloud had fallen into his palm, light and weightless. However, his right hand was stiff and he dared not move at all, as if he was holding an invaluable treasure, and he dared not even tremble for fear of damaging it.
As if he had noticed Hua Shi's stiffness, Fang Wei just looked up at him, then continued his action, following Hua Shi's arm and using the power of the rabbit spirit to easily climb to Hua Shi's shoulder.
Then he sat down on his shoulder with familiarity. When he was a white cat in the Yunxiu Pen space, he often stayed on Hua Shi's shoulder like this.
Hua Shi felt half of his body was numb. If he glanced sideways, he could see Fang Wei sitting upright on his shoulder. Moreover, Fang Wei now looked different from usual. He had a pair of furry rabbit ears on his head and his eyes were red. He looked more fragile and innocent like a rabbit than before.
He didn't have time to pay attention to it when they just met again, but now that he has finally come to his senses, Hua Shi finally has to pay attention to the pair of snow-white rabbit ears.
He was about to ask, but before he could say anything, he heard a voice coming from outside the inn, followed by a familiar figure rushing in from outside the inn. He stopped at the entrance of the lobby, looked at Hua Shi and Zhou Li, and said in a somewhat hurried tone: "Not long ago, we found a few guys who stripped spiritual objects and elixirs. Do you want to go and take a look?"
The person who came was Yuxing. She didn't look much different from a hundred years ago and still looked like a young girl.
Hua Shi originally came here to investigate these matters, but when he heard these words, he suddenly hesitated.
However, just as he was hesitating, Fang Wei gently touched his collar on his shoulder and took the initiative to say, "Go and have a look. I'll go with you."
