After all, he was her mother's friend, and they were both from the Yun clan, so she should at least know his name.
"Just call me Black Robe. Can you walk? If you can, get up. I'm going to take you somewhere."
The man in the black robe seemed somewhat impatient.
Xie Lingqin glanced at the giant clam shell, then gently stood up. "Okay."
The man in the black robe frowned slightly as he looked at Xie Lingqin's pale lips. He glanced at the giant clam and said, "Aren't you her maid? You should help her."
"good."
Tridacna did not refuse, and Xie Lingqin naturally did not reject it.
"But it's so late, where are you taking me? Should we go with Father Emperor...?"
"No need. If you don't trust me, you don't have to come with me."
The man in the black robe spoke in a hostile tone.
Xie Lingqin, however, felt no anger towards the black robe. She simply nodded and said, "Alright, please lead the way."
The man in the black robe walked at a pace that was neither fast nor slow. For him, it was like taking a leisurely stroll, but for Xie Lingqin, who was already weak at the moment, her whole body was soaked in sweat.
"Miss, I'll carry you on my back."
"It's just a short journey. There are many people in this world who have suffered far more than you."
The man in black turned around and uttered a sarcastic remark.
Xie Lingqin shook her head at the giant clam shell and continued walking forward.
It took almost two hours to walk.
The man in black robes finally stopped.
“Here…” Xie Lingqin looked around. Wasn’t this the place where she had come to gather herbs before, and where Yuwen Yao… taught her martial arts?
"Jump down."
The man in black robes raised his hand, pointed to the edge of the cliff, looked at Xie Lingqin, and spoke in an unquestionable tone.
Xie Lingqin was slightly stunned, her face cold as she looked at the man in black robes. "What's the reason?"
When Xie Lingqin said those three words, her heart suddenly ached.
No matter how much she hated it, no matter how heartbroken she was, those memories kept flashing before her eyes, impossible for her to ignore.
"Jump!"
At that time, Yuwen Yao said, his brocade sleeves fluttering, the moonlight reflecting off his snow-white eyebrows, and he looked at her with such focus.
She thought he really wanted her dead, but it turned out he was teaching her martial arts. Then she thought he loved her, but it turned out he really wanted her dead.
Yuwen Yao......
"Jump!"
The man in the black robe spoke again, two words in a hoarse, rough voice that pulled Xie Lingqin back to reality.
"Jump. It's something you have to do."
The man in the black robe suddenly approached, his hideous scars gleaming coldly in the moonlight.
"Miss, jump."
At this moment, Tridacna also spoke up from the side.
Xie Lingqin glanced at the two of them, then at the edge of the cliff, and then walked closer step by step.
At that moment, the giant clam swiftly raised its hand and pushed Xie Lingqin forward.
Caught off guard and feeling weak and limp, Xie Lingqin fell off the cliff...
