In a closed environment in complete darkness.

Even though it was pitch dark all around.

But when facing Xi Shenlian's eyes that were emitting a slightly deep purple glow.

Tian Yuanli still deeply understood the other person's eyes, which even darkness could not hide.

Just like the most perfect deep purple gem, it always shines with its own brilliance.

The gorgeous and beautiful color that was not like the color of the human world made her immersed in it for a while...

She couldn't help but secretly daydream:

"If Xi Shenlian had turned back before, would I still be able to see his eyes from inside the door..."

then.

Without waiting for her to think more.

She clearly heard a question with a clear smile:

"Were you scared just now?"

It felt like a joke between friends.

There's no malice involved though.

But it is enough to make people feel embarrassed and ashamed from the bottom of their hearts.

Regarding this kind of situation where one's shortcomings are exposed in person.

Tian Yuanli immediately tilted his head slightly in the darkness.

She didn't dare to look Xi Shenlian in the eyes.

He replied somewhat reluctantly:

"……No."

She didn't want to admit that...

I don’t want to…

Especially in front of Xi Shenlian...

But faced with her stubborn answer.

Xi Shenlian's purple eyes moved a little closer to her.

It was as if he was ignoring the dark environment and carefully observing her facial expression at this moment from a close distance.

After looking at it for a long time.

He asked with a slightly distressed tone and sighed:

"Really?"

"When you grabbed my hand just now, you did it very hard~"

“It’s like grasping at straws.”

After saying.

He continued with a grin and a sly tone:

"At that time, were you worried that I would let go of your hand and leave you there?"

Although I'm asking something.

But his words were already filled with a sense of conclusive evidence.

(There is only one truth/The scheming frog keeps touching your belly.jpg!)

This tone made Tian Yuanli feel angry uncontrollably.

Gnashing his teeth, he denied again:

"If I say no, then no!!"

"Really?"

After asking a question in a funny tone, he tried to add fuel to the fire and said in a very affirmative tone:

“I don’t believe it!!”

I have to say.

This is a really useful taunt skill.

As soon as these words came out, Xi Shenlian immediately succeeded in angering the other party.

Tian Yuanli's fists fell as fast as raindrops.

The phantom was created on the spot!

Xi Shenlian's chest was hit so hard that there was a constant slapping sound!

However, even now, Tian Yuanli still retains his rationality.

Not much force was used.

He was merely venting his dissatisfaction with a force slightly stronger than that of an ordinary person.

Xi Shenlian's direct exposure of his shortcomings really made Tian Yuanli angry!

And facing the angry opponent.

Xi Shenlian had no intention of dodging and smiled as she calmly endured the series of attacks from the opponent.

Until the other person has vented his emotions.

Only after the other party's weak and half-hearted willingness did he finally hold the other person's hand again.

"Have you vented your emotions?"

"Next, we should continue to explore this ruins~"

As if nothing had happened before, Xi Shenlian muttered nonchalantly:

"It's a copy after all..."

"Maybe there will be some gains from this."

Feeling the warmth coming from the other person's palm, Tian Yuanli was a little silent.

Although she was still a little annoyed by the other party's previous behavior, she was indeed a little more relaxed now than before.

Since I have never experienced any crisis since I was a child, I have lived an extremely stable life. It can even be said that I have been looking down on various things with extreme ease.

so.

The previous feeling of oppression, the feeling of being trapped inside an object and possibly dying at any time, made her feel more or less uncomfortable and fearful from the bottom of her heart.

Even as an individual, she is indeed excellent.

But when humans face fundamental fears they have never experienced before, they cannot expect to perform perfectly.

That was something Tian Yuanli could not deny, even though he had relied on the habits and composure he had developed over the years to always maintain a general calm and composure.

and.

It's obvious.

The emotional changes in her heart were not hidden from Xi Shenlian at all.

In the end, I even felt a mixture of shame and anger at the other party's despicable behavior.

'Does this guy care?'

Inexplicable.

In a little joy.

She thought of the possibility.

But, maybe it’s because of the girl’s sentimentality.

After hesitating for a while, she asked another question.

"If... we were in danger just now, would you let go and leave me behind the door?"

In a very slight voice.

The footsteps were dozens of times lighter than when two people were walking.

There is a feeling of uneasiness in it.

However, for Xi Shenlian, her voice was naturally loud enough:

The meaning of the words.

It was like a thunderclap that shocked the world, and a question mark immediately popped up in his mind:

'?'

"This feeling..."

"This very familiar feeling..."

"More than ten years ago, Xuehui seemed to have asked a similar question..."

While recalling things.

He answered with great honesty:

"Don't worry~"

"After all, we are good acquaintances, and you are also a super beautiful woman. How could I give up on you~"

Listen to these words.

Tian Yuanli, who did not get the answer he wanted, immediately muttered in dissatisfaction:

"It's so realistic..."

But let's be honest.

She felt a little happy again.

After all, Xi Shenlian praised her to her face as a super beauty...

Then, she heard Xi Shenlian say calmly:

"Of course... I don't think there is such a so-called danger."

"I am invincible."

“Truly invincible.”

"There is no real danger in front of me."

When he spoke, his voice was very flat, so flat that there was no fluctuation at all.

It seemed as if he was simply stating the facts.

After a slight pause.

Tian Yuanli complained mercilessly:

"Really invincible?"

“…How arrogant.”

“Even if you become an [Awakener in the Sublimation Stage] in the future, you will be invincible on this planet.”

"But what does it mean to this vast universe?"

And faced with her question.

Xi Shenlian answered without thinking:

"Of course I'm still invincible."

"Whether it's the Earth or the universe."

"Whether it's this moment, the lost distant past, or the uncertain future, I don't think anyone can be called a match for me."
