Chapter 136: Discuss first, then offend again
Bloody clouds and murderous energy surged.
The sky was covered with wailing.
Only one mountain top was encircled by a huge formation, isolating it from the world-destroying disaster.
A young girl stood in the center of the formation.
The long sword in the girl's hand was shining with golden light, and the buzzing sound was like crying, but it could not shake the determination in her eyes.
She held the sword upside down and stabbed it into her heart without hesitation.
Blood gushed out, flowing into the center of the formation. The entire formation, with the girl at its center, suddenly burst into golden light, breaking through the blood cloud's blockade and spreading life to the earth...
"No!!!"
There was a voice that seemed to come from a very far away, but it was heart-wrenching and filled with despair.
The girl slowly turned around, trying to give the other person a comforting smile.
But before she could do so, her figure had already turned into thousands of points of light and disappeared between heaven and earth.
Yun Qingqing suddenly opened her eyes.
Above her head was a brilliant starry sky, and it only took her a moment to remember where she was.
The voice in the dream still lingers in my ears.
That was not a dream, but a part of her memory that she had ignored before.
Who was that person on the day of sacrifice in the previous life?
She couldn't see the man's face clearly until the end.
Her hand suddenly tightened, and Yun Qingqing regained her consciousness. She noticed that Xiao Changheng had sat up, still holding one of her hands tightly.
The man's face was hidden in the night, and his expression could not be seen clearly, but his eyes, which were deeper than those of ordinary people, reflected the starlight and were particularly crystal clear.
He looked at her quietly without saying a word.
Yun Qingqing sat up and just as she approached him, he turned his head away.
"I'm sorry to wake you up. It's still early. You should sleep a little longer." The man took back the hand that had been holding hers, his voice a little hoarse.
Yun Qingqing suppressed the strange feeling in her heart and looked at the sky.
"I won't sleep anymore. If the southern expedition goes well, it's almost time for news."
As soon as she finished speaking, she looked towards the horizon.
I saw a faint light coming from far away and approaching in an instant. It landed on Yun Qingqing's outstretched palm, reflecting a light golden rune, which dissipated when she gently pinched it.
It was the talisman she gave him before he set out on the southern expedition. As long as he lit the talisman paper, the runes on it would fly back to her at an extremely fast speed to report the news.
Yun Qingqing curled her lips:
"Everything is ready, we can go."
Xiao Changheng turned back, regaining his usual composure, and asked:
"Are you really able to transport all this food back by yourself?"
Yun Qingqing stood up and stretched, coughed lightly, and her eyes suddenly shifted:
"You can't just rely on me, you have to do your part too."
The space in her jade ring was only as big as a warehouse. It was more than enough to hold Yun Zhiping's private wealth, but it was far from enough to hold the food and fodder for an army of 100,000.
Otherwise, she would have taken her things back to Beijing long ago.
Right now her spiritual power is almost drained, but fortunately this teammate is not an ordinary person, and they can still complete the task if they work together.
Xiao Changheng raised his eyebrows slightly, then smiled:
"Of course, if you need me to do anything, just tell me."
Yun Qingqing took a deep breath and smiled brightly:
"To transport such a large pile of stuff, I need to call a few helpers, and these helpers are special. With my current spiritual power, I want to contact them, and I need to borrow some things from you."
"That's right... well, excuse me." When she said the last sentence, her eyes drifted to the side.
Xiao Changheng's breathing stagnated and his ears suddenly felt a little hot.
He was very familiar with the words "offend a little".
Every time she said this,...
"If you don't want to, I can just cast a small forgetfulness spell on you when we get back so that you can forget about what happened here, isn't that enough?" Yun Qingqing pinched her fingers and felt that she had come up with a good idea.
Xiao Changheng stared at her for a moment, and after confirming that she was serious, he couldn't help but grit his teeth.
"Forgetfulness spell? Don't even think about it!" The man gritted his teeth. "When did I say I didn't want to?"
"When do we leave? I'm available anytime!"
"That's good." Yun Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.
After all, the previous times of "offending" were all done without asking for the other person's consent, which was like forcing oneself upon them.
Judging from his reactions every time, he was angry and annoyed, which made her feel that she was not being very kind.
This time, she had very little spiritual power left, and wanted to transport the 100,000 liters of food and fodder back to the capital without anyone noticing. Not only was the chance of success slim, but she was also afraid of backlash.
But Xiao Changheng only needs a breath of true dragon energy to solve the problem.
After all, they are partners. Since the situation is not that urgent this time, she still hopes that the two of them can reach an agreement first.
Yun Qingqing helped Xiao Changheng sit back in the wheelchair, put the alfalfa back into the pile of hay, and then began to walk around the pile of hay.
He drew a huge formation as he walked.
After the formation was completed, Yun Qingqing also walked back to the starting point and turned to look at Xiao Changheng:
"Are you ready?"
The man pursed his lips and nodded calmly.
His Adam's apple rolled slightly uncontrollably, and his ears turned red.
Fortunately, the night had not yet faded, and Yun Qingqing did not notice these things.
She walked up to Xiao Changheng and held his face in her hands.
But I found that my heart was beating inexplicably disorderly.
What's going on? This has never happened before. Her brows furrowed slightly, and after silently chanting a heart-clearing mantra, her heart calmed down.
Yun Qingqing lowered her head and aimed her lips at the man.
Xiao Changheng's expression remained calm, but his fingers were tightly curled up, and his dark pupils trembled slightly.
Everything around him suddenly became blurry and distant, and all he could sense was the girl's warm and soft lips.
Yun Qingqing narrowed her eyes slightly and frowned.
"Breathe." She gently rubbed his lips, and the command that came out of her lips seemed to be a little wet.
Only then did Xiao Changheng realize that he had subconsciously held his breath for a long time. He also noticed that his heartbeat was like thunder, accompanied by the gurgling blood, which almost made him dizzy.
There was a flash of panic in his eyes, but before he could adjust himself, the girl had already pulled away and turned around.
He was left alone there, his whole body tense, his chest heaving heavily, relying entirely on instinct and subconsciously restraining himself silently.
A strong wind suddenly arose, tightly enveloping the entire formation and the two people inside.
Xiao Changheng regained consciousness and looked up at the girl's focused profile. A deep sense of loss gradually overflowed from the endless undercurrent in his dark eyes.
Even though he had made the most thorough mental preparations for what had just happened, he still almost lost control.
Even now I still can't suppress my frantic heartbeat.
But he could see clearly that she was so calm as if she was just doing the most ordinary action, with no emotion in her eyes.
Even the heartbeat was calm and steady as usual.
For her, it was just a necessary routine.
Just like back then...
Xiao Changheng suddenly frowned, feeling confused.
Just like when? What did he just think of?
It seemed as if something was about to break out of the cocoon in my mind, but when I thought about it carefully, I couldn't find any trace.
I had the same feeling when I woke up from last night's dream... Did he forget something important...
A small hand held his big hand, Xiao Changheng tightened his fingertips, raised his eyes and looked at the girl in front of him blankly.
Yun Qingqing frowned and looked at:
"What’s wrong with you?"
She wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with the corner of her sleeve and said coldly:
"Don't be distracted, let's go!"
A strong wind blew by, and five black shadows rushed from the horizon, and the sky and the earth became dark in an instant!
