As soon as he returned to the room, Lu Tianjiao's smile gradually disappeared, and his eyes revealed some complexity.
After he pondered silently for a long time, his figure disappeared in the room and appeared beside Jiang Zhige in the sky.
Jiang Zhige sat cross-legged in the air with his eyes closed and asked, "Brother Lu, what's on your mind?"
"Brother Jiang, I'm going to say goodbye to Zi Yan later, so I'd better watch from the sky with you."
Lu Tianjiao sighed, not knowing how to face Xiao Ling.
Jiang Zhige frowned slightly when he heard this, and asked in confusion: "Brother Lu, I think that girl is pretty good, why did you choose to escape?"
Lu Tianjiao slipped away without answering, completely wasting Xiao Ling's affection.
"Um, did you see everything?"
Lu Tianjiao was a little embarrassed. He thought Jiang Zhige was staring at Mo Ziyan.
"Brother Lu, in my opinion, Miss Xiao is really good. She is straightforward and does not hide her feelings. She dares to take the initiative to pursue the person she loves. If it were an ordinary girl, I'm afraid she wouldn't have the courage to express her feelings to you."
Jiang Zhige nodded. His spiritual sense covered an area of thousands of miles. Not only could he ensure Mo Ziyan's safety, but he could also secretly peek at how Lu Tianjiao and Xiao Ling were getting along.
"No, Brother Jiang, it's not like I haven't thought about it carefully, but she may not be the true love I've been looking for."
Lu Tianjiao had a complicated expression. In fact, he felt something was wrong from the beginning when he met Xiao Ling, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.
"Where do I begin?"
Jiang Zhige disagreed. Even he could not find any fault with Xiao Ling.
Lu Tianjiao pondered for a moment and explained, "She took the initiative to ask me out even though I had only known her for a short time. I just gave her a few sycamore branches, but she kissed me on her own initiative and later even confessed to me directly. This seemed too casual to me."
"Since she is so casual, if someone else gave her a sycamore branch, she would also give it a kiss and take the initiative to confess. Besides, I have only known her for a short time, she doesn't know me very well, and I don't know her very well either. If I agree to her confession, and if she finds my shortcomings in the future, her love will inevitably fade, and it will be difficult for us to stay together forever."
"Brother Jiang, this is definitely not the true love I want."
After saying this, Lu Tianjiao shook his head and sighed, perhaps he would never be able to find true love like Jiang Zhige in his entire life.
After listening to Lu Tianjiao's clear explanation, Jiang Zhige slowly opened his eyes, his eyes full of helplessness.
"Brother Lu, I know what you are thinking, but you are wrong. I can see that Miss Xiao really likes you."
After hearing this, Lu Tianjiao wanted to argue, but was interrupted by Jiang Zhige.
"You think that Miss Xiao's initiative to invite you out is too casual, it's nothing more than that you don't have true feelings for Miss Xiao and can't accept her sudden advances, but you should know that Miss Xiao herself is not bad and has never lacked suitors. She invited you out not because she covets your looks and cultivation."
"You can't accept Miss Xiao kissing you suddenly, and you think she's not reserved enough, but you have to know that Miss Xiao is really in love with you, and that's why she did that. The Wutong branch of the Divine Phoenix that has entered the Saint Realm is extremely precious to her. If it were someone else, she would never accept such a valuable gift or a favor, let alone a kiss."
"You think Miss Xiao's confession was too quick, but she just wanted to tell you her feelings. She didn't want you to give her an answer right away, nor did she expect you to agree to her directly."
"Brother Lu, in the final analysis, you just think that Miss Xiao is too vulgar and that she is attracted by your appearance and cultivation. But in my opinion, love is the basis of everything. She really likes you as a person. Otherwise, no matter how good your external conditions are, it is useless."
"For a young and innocent girl like Miss Xiao, true love doesn't need too many twists and turns. If you like someone, you like him. If you hate someone, you hate him. Even if you think that this love is not enough to be called true love that depends on life and death, you still need to test it with time instead of rejecting it directly."
Jiang Zhige looked emotional. He said so much with all his heart, not only because he wanted Lu Tianjiao to find true love, but also because he didn't want such a pure girl like Xiao Ling to lose her love.
Jiang Zhige could understand Xiao Ling's love very well. Lv Tianjiao had good external conditions, but there were so many people with superior conditions in the world. Xiao Ling was moved and happy only because the target was Lv Tianjiao, whom she already had a good impression of. Otherwise, wouldn't she fall in love with everyone she met? If Lv Tianjiao had a bad personality, if he had not helped Xiao Ling many times in the ruins, Xiao Ling would only treat him as a passerby even if he was handsome and had a high level of cultivation.
Lu Tianjiao failed to understand Xiao Ling, and subconsciously thought that Xiao Ling was vulgar, purely because in his eyes, true love was more unforgettable than this, and the time they spent together in the ruins should not have directly made Xiao Ling fall in love.
Listening to Jiang Zhige's insights, Lu Tianjiao was stunned again and again. Not to mention that it was like thunder piercing his ears, but he also felt like he had suddenly realized something.
In the past, Lu Tianjiao might have praised him and gladly accepted Jiang Zhige's advice, but this time, even though he had some insights, he still hesitated.
"Brother Lu, the word love is sometimes complicated and unpredictable, and it is difficult to explain it in thousands of words. Sometimes it is just simple and profound, and it just happens naturally."
"I have said this much, please think about it."
Jiang Zhige smiled indifferently and closed his eyes again.
He knew Lu Tianjiao very well. As long as he could understand Xiao Ling's intentions from his words, he would not run back to agree to Xiao Ling, nor would he directly reject Xiao Ling.
"That's true."
Lu Tianjiao nodded and sat in the air, lost in thought.
The next day, Xiao Ling woke up early and ran next door to find Lu Tianjiao.
But when she pushed the door open, she saw that Lu Tianjiao's room was empty, and the bedding, table and chairs had not been moved.
Seeing this, Xiao Ling's expression froze for a moment, and he suddenly had a bad feeling.
She first went to ask the inn waiter, and then went to ask Mo Ziyan, but even Mo Ziyan didn't know where Lu Tianjiao was.
After searching for a whole morning, Xiao Ling returned to the room and sat on the bed with a pale face.
Could it be that this was Lu Tianjiao's answer to her confession yesterday? Mo Ziyan noticed Xiao Ling's mood and comforted her, "Ling'er, don't think too much. Elder Lu should come back. With his personality, he would never leave without saying goodbye unless he encountered something very urgent."
"Um"
Xiao Ling pursed her cherry lips, feeling both uneasy and a little bit expectant.
Judging from her previous interactions with Lu Tianjiao, even if she wanted to reject her feelings, she would not leave without saying a word, not to mention that Lu Tianjiao did not even say goodbye to Mo Ziyan.
But what made Xiao Ling feel puzzled and uneasy was that Lu Tianjiao had extremely strong cultivation base, and he shouldn't have encountered something so important in Shangquanzhou that would cause him to leave without saying goodbye. For some unknown reason, he suddenly disappeared without even saying goodbye.
Is it that Lu Tianjiao is unwilling to face himself, or is it because he has something really important that made him leave?
