Chapter 22 Dialogue Sorry, I didn’t see you.
Nothing can be seen in the darkness, even spiritual consciousness cannot penetrate it. This is what Luo Huaiyin is most grateful for at the moment.
Jiang Zhaoyue was holding the soul-binding rope. Perhaps because her vision was blocked and she was not very familiar with Luo Huaiyin, she fumbled around his waist for a long time but failed to tie it up.
His calm breathing finally trembled a little at one moment.
In the darkness, I heard his rapid breathing, followed by a slightly fluctuating voice: "Have you tied it up?"
Jiang Zhaoyue had a mild expression, moved slowly, and had a nonchalant look mixed with a slightly malicious smile.
But the darkness covered everything, and Luo Huaiyin could only hear her voice, which was as gentle, pleasant, and a little impatient as usual.
"Why are you in such a hurry? It's pitch dark, why don't I try to figure out how to tie it?"
Luo Huaiyin's body was a little stiff, but he remained calm:
"I'm just worried about the long night and the many dreams. Besides, what's so hard about tying a rope? Hurry up."
"I know, don't push me."
Jiang Zhaoyue wrapped the Fu Ling rope around his waist before tying the knot. When he pulled the rope hard, the back of his hand "accidentally" hit it downwards.
It seemed like it collided with something.
She asked in a questioning tone, "Did you tie the Light Shuttle around your waist?"
But just as she asked the question, she felt Luo Huaiyin push her violently, and she quickly stepped back. However, because she had tied the Fu Lingsuo around her waist first, his stepping back did not cause the two of them to separate. Instead, due to inertia, Jiang Zhaoyue was pulled over.
They were all cultivators, so they wouldn't fall down like that. Jiang Zhaoyue stopped the force of leaning forward in time and subconsciously used his palms to push forward.
The heat coming through the clothes and the feeling of the muscles that suddenly hardened should be supporting Luo Huaiyin's chest.
He gasped violently, but the next moment he seemed to suppress it and returned to silence. The cultivator's powerful control allowed him to suppress all abnormalities in an instant without revealing any trace.
After Jiang Zhaoyue stabilized himself, he showed a rare bit of anger.
"Luo Huaiyin, if you don't want to go with us, just get out."
In the past, he would have responded to her immediately, even with greater force.
But this time it was unexpected.
Luo Huaiyin was silent in the darkness, even his breathing was so low that it was barely audible, as if his entire body had melted into the darkness and disappeared.
Jiang Qiying, who hadn't been tied up yet, heard the noise and asked, "Junior Sister Jiang, what happened?"
Jiang Zhaoyue took a deep breath and answered him: "It's nothing, Senior Brother Jiang, come closer and I'll tie it for you too."
Jiang Qiying was obviously much more normal. He opened his arms to facilitate her movements. Jiang Zhaoyue put her arms around his waist and quickly tied the Fu Lingsuo around his waist.
No accidents happened in the middle.
After tying both of them, Jiang Zhaoyue grabbed the Fu Lingsuo tied in front and pulled it, signaling: "Go forward, in your direction."
Although they couldn't see, from a brief exploration they knew that the place they were in was like a long and narrow cave, and it was impossible for three people to move forward side by side.
The faint flow of spiritual energy in the air was coming from the direction of Luo Huaiyin, so they had to explore in that direction.
The darkness was dominated by silence, without a single sound.
"Luo Huaiyin?"
Because he was silent, Jiang Zhaoyue asked again.
This time, Luo Huaiyin finally answered her.
His voice didn't sound unusual, except that it was a little low and inexplicably hoarse.
"I understand. Follow me and I'll explore the way."
His attitude was so normal that it was a little abnormal.
Jiang Zhaoyue followed the force of the rope and groped forward behind him, then reached out and touched him.
The response she received was her back instantly dodging away.
Luo Huaiyin's voice was a little hoarse and there was a strange gasp: "Jiang Zhaoyue, don't touch me."
The darkness was silent for a moment, and then Jiang Zhaoyue's somewhat inexplicable voice was heard: "I saw that you looked a little strange, so I tapped your shoulder? Who touched you? What's wrong with your voice?"
"nothing!"
Luo Huaiyin responded to this sentence quickly.
He closed his eyes in the darkness and said, "If you have anything to say, just talk to me. Don't do anything."
Jiang Zhaoyue sighed speechlessly, then asked him, "Why did you tie the Flowing Light Shuttle around your waist? It almost stabbed me just now."
"It's none of your business."
His reaction made her a little confused: "What's wrong with you?"
"I said it's nothing." Even though he knew that it would be dark again if he turned around and he couldn't see anything, Luo Huaiyin still didn't dare to look back at her. He could only sink his fingertips into his palms and use the pain to remind himself to barely stay calm.
"I came to find you after I came back from exploring the secret realm last time. What did I do then?"
"Jiang, Zhao, Yue!"
This time his voice had normal ups and downs.
As for the answer, he certainly couldn't answer this question in front of Jiang Qiying.
Jiang Zhaoyue didn't get angry and nodded calmly: "It seems to be you. You are in a foreign place now, and you don't know what dangers you may face. Please don't do anything that can easily be misunderstood, so that I don't have to judge whether it is true or false."
"I didn't! I just..."
Luo Huaiyin's voice stopped abruptly, and after a while he continued in a very light voice: "I was just thinking about how to get out. There is also the Tianyan Dao Fruit and the sword you stabbed me with before. Don't think that I have forgotten this grudge."
There was no sense of concealment in his tone, but it always sounded a little strange, as if his emphasis was not on these words.
After his explanation, Jiang Zhaoyue finally stopped asking him questions.
The darkness fell into silence again.
Just when Luo Huaiyin breathed a sigh of relief and the huge stone in his heart was about to fall to the ground, he suddenly heard Jiang Qiying, who was walking at the back, suddenly speak.
"Junior Sister Jiang went to visit Senior Brother Luo afterwards?"
As soon as this question was asked, the attention of all three people was focused.
He might have just asked casually, and Jiang Zhaoyue quickly replied, "Yes, I'll go find Senior Brother Luo later..."
Before she could finish her words, Luo Huaiyin interrupted her: "She just had a drink with me and apologized to me."
But after he said that, he felt a little regretful.
Why should he explain to Jiang Qiying? What did they do? What did he have to feel guilty about?
So he said, "Aren't you going to sever all ties with my junior sister? Why are you still concerned about this? Why did she come to me? What's it to you?"
Jiang Qiying was silent for a moment.
"I never said I was done with you. I just..." His tone dropped, a hint of bewilderment in his voice. "I'm sorry, Junior Sister Jiang, I shouldn't have pried into your privacy."
He didn't know what was wrong with him, but when Jiang Zhaoyue said that just now, he found that he didn't completely not care.
His original intention of coming here was clearly just to help her deal with Luo Huaiyin.
When Luo Huaiyin faced him, his attack power was always very strong, and he even forgot what he wanted to cover up just now.
"If you know you shouldn't ask, don't ask. No one thinks you're dumb."
Jiang Qiying was silent for a moment, his voice unclear in the silence: "This is a matter between me and Junior Sister Jiang, it has nothing to do with you."
Hearing him say this, Luo Huaiyin's voice changed from being low and hoarse to being tinged with sneer.
"Jiang Zhaoyue and I are brothers and sisters from the same sect, so we are closer than you. She has a simple personality, so I can't let her be deceived by some cold-blooded and ruthless bad man."
Jiang Zhaoyue listened to their conversation silently for a while, then threw a stone in the calmness: "Actually, I went to find Brother Luo before to test the medicine on him. Brother Jiang, if I drugged you, would you blame me?"
Luo Huaiyin: "Ahem——"
He almost choked to death, and said in a panic: "Poison, she gave me poison!"
“…”
There was a moment of silence before Jiang Qiying replied, "I hurt my junior sister, so whatever she did to me was what she deserved."
"Then let my junior sister stab you and see how it goes."
Afraid that Jiang Zhaoyue would say something lewd again, Luo Huaiyin racked his brains to change the subject. It was like his mouth was talking in front and his brain was chasing after him. He blurted out, "Come, I'll lend you the Flowing Light Shuttle."
But after he said that, he realized something was wrong.
But Jiang Zhaoyue suddenly changed his attitude for some reason. Unlike usual rejection, he smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll borrow your Liuguang Shuttle."
"etc!"
Luo Huaiyin immediately blocked her and accurately caught her hand that was touching his waist in the dark.
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Zhaoyue's voice was soft and gentle, as if she asked out of genuine curiosity.
"I..." Luo Huaiyin's throat rolled, and he felt the heat rising again. He suppressed the emotions in his heart with all his strength, and was able to speak rationally: "I was just joking, why did you take it seriously, Junior Sister?"
"Yeah?"
Jiang Zhaoyue smiled softly in the darkness.
She moved closer to Luo Huaiyin and casually mentioned, "Brother's hands are so hot. Are you nervous when you suddenly grab me?"
"No."
Luo Huaiyin let go of her wrist as if he had been electrocuted, but his palm was trembling a little. Heat emanated from his face, enveloping his entire body.
Jiang Qiying, who had been silent all the time, seemed to sense something.
He suddenly moved forward, but perhaps because it was too dark to see, he didn't control the distance well, so after a few steps, he passed Jiang Zhaoyue and walked between her and Luo Huaiyin, and accidentally pushed him.
Luo Huaiyin's back hit the stone wall, making a loud noise that could be heard far away in the silent darkness.
Jiang Qiying's emotionless voice sounded cold: "Sorry, I didn't see you."
