Chapter 110 Mutation She Just Wants to Be with Him
Xu Xingxing's head was very dizzy, and it took her a while to realize that she was lying on a ball of black air.
Because her body was in so much pain, her first thought was:
How come this thing is so comfortable to lie on?
It took me two full breaths to react. This thing... shouldn't be here...
Transform the world's evil energy into a weapon that can be controlled at will...
Isn't this the Demon God's unique and iconic skill?
She looked at Hou Yuan.
The man's face showed the clear feeling of a naughty child who was caught doing something bad.
she:……
so……
Her heart skipped a beat.
"Help me up." Xu Xingxing's voice trembled.
After Wei Yuan gently helped her half-up, she stared at the man's eyes and slowly whispered the suspicion in her heart, "Do they know?"
"Are you referring to his identity as a demon god?" Si Li interrupted from ten meters away. "Yes, we know."
…
Xu Xingxing almost couldn't catch his breath and fell over again.
She subconsciously tried to grab at Yuan's clothes, but felt something wet.
A burst of bloody smell hit her nose, and she looked up suddenly: "Are you hurt?"
Yuan lowered his eyes and nodded.
She hurried to check the man's wound, and belatedly discovered that her right hand was wrapped tightly.
Although the wound has mostly healed, the bloody surface still shows how serious the injury was.
Her dull mind began to work.
It is known that no one here can defeat Hou Yuan.
It was also known that she was in his arms when she lost consciousness, and her right hand was in severe pain.
From this we can easily infer that...
"I did it?"
Hou Yuan looked at her with self-blame in his eyes: "It's my fault that I didn't find the right opportunity to remove the demon soul fragment after I got out, which allowed the demon to take advantage of the opportunity and control you."
Xu Xingxing's anger instantly subsided at his unfounded self-blame. "How can I blame you? I was the one who warned you not to expose yourself first, and then I hurt you... I'm sorry. Does it hurt?"
Seeing the tenderness in the woman's eyes, Hou Yuan felt a surge of joy, like a spring of sweet water. He was thankful that he hadn't completely healed the wound, but he shook his head while holding her good hand. "Don't blame yourself. It doesn't hurt."
Although Xu Xingxing knew that if Wei Yuan was exposed, he would cause a lot of trouble, but his well-behaved and docile appearance softened her heart. She quickly put the matter aside and asked, "What about the fragments on their bodies?"
"We took them out together." Yuan Yuan gently held her hand, which was bandaged like five large sausages. "But you got hurt again."
Xu Xingxing looked at Hou Yuan's unsightly bandaging technique, suppressed her sarcasm, and said, "So...that's how you were exposed?"
Wei Yuan remained noncommittal: "Xingxing, let's go. I'll explain this to you in detail when we get back, okay?"
"Go back? Where to?" Gu Nuoran's angry voice suddenly rose. "Xing'er, when did you know he was the demon god Hou Yuan? I was wondering why there had been no news from you for over a year. Was it because you were hiding from him?"
Xu Yuan's face was ugly in vain. Even though Xu Xingxing had prepared himself mentally, he was still a little nervous. Just when he was about to explain, he heard Gu Nuo say:
"Xing'er, don't be afraid. Come back to Kunlun with me. Kunlun will protect you."
The anger in Hou Yuan suddenly surged. Xu Xingxing quickly grabbed his hand and soothed him, "Don't be afraid. Let me talk."
Then she looked at Gu Nuo: "No, uncle, it's me who wants to go with him. I like him."
Among the people present, only Fang Zhiming had an expression of "I knew it", while the faces of the others were all extremely shocked.
Gu Nuo's face was filled with disbelief, and he was even furious. "Xing'er, do you know what you're talking about? Have you completely forgotten the deep blood feud between this man and Kunlun? You wouldn't have completely forgotten the teachings I gave you when you were young just because you've been so lax these days, have you? If you truly love him, then why haven't you dared to show up in person or even return home for over a year? How can I believe you when you're just spouting nonsense like that?"
Xu Xingxing couldn't bring herself to mention the Book of Beasts to him, nor could she explain to him how it was possible that Hou Yuan would let her go since he had only just found her yesterday. She could only say like a rebellious girl, "Yes, I've forgotten everything. I'm going with him. Leave me alone!"
After saying that, he pulled Hou Yuan and signaled him to leave quickly.
At this moment, Chen Li, who had been dazed and silent, suddenly turned his neck to look at her. His dull eyes trembled slightly, and he opened his mouth and called out, "Xing'er."
Everyone was shocked. Jiang Sheng looked at Chen Li for a moment, then raised his eyes to Xu Xingxing and said, "Xing'er, what's your reason? Although Kunlun can't withstand the power of the demon god, it's not to the point where you have to rely on yourself to maintain stability. Don't let those nonsense words of salvation make you feel wronged. If your mother knew, she wouldn't want you to give yourself to this cruel and bloodthirsty monster like this!"
Jiang Sheng's words gave Xu Xingxing an inspiration.
She thought that if she followed what he said, acted like she was willing to sacrifice herself for the sake of everyone else, and then followed Hou Yuan and portrayed herself as a selfless little white flower, then she wouldn't have to be caught in the middle and become a fence-sitter, trying to be on the wrong side of the fence.
This method is wise and convenient. Although it will make Wei Yuan sad for a while, she has already gone with him, so he can just go back and coax her.
But she didn't want to.
Her chest and right hand ached badly, and she felt a little dazed. She casually asked, "If I go back, can I take Xiao Hei with me?"
The scene was instantly silent.
After a long pause, Gu Nuo scoffed and said, "What are you going to do? Are you going to let the thousands of heroic souls of Kunlun's ancestors die with regret? Xu Xing'er, there should be a limit to your willfulness."
Jiang Sheng also sneered, "Xing'er, if you really want to take him back, you can cut off his head and bring it back. We can stop by to pay tribute to our master on the way back."
…
So, how can we talk about this?
She could only mobilize her meager brain cells and take the rational route: "Uncle Master, there are still four active cultivators in Kunlun. Can they defeat him together?"
The subtext is very clear. If she really wants to go with you in her current dead look, it is not known whether you can finally get out of this rocky desert, not to mention that there are many mortals here.
Unexpectedly, Qin Feng, who had been silent since she woke up, interrupted and said, "Don't worry, even if I die..."
"Damn it!"
Xu Xingxing's sudden emotional excitement made her body shiver with pain for a long time. She relaxed her grip on Qu Yuan's hand for a moment, rubbing the man's knuckles, which had turned white from exertion, and said coldly, "Qin Feng, why didn't I notice you were so stubborn before? What? What if you want to die? You both die here and then I follow him, or I take the initiative to follow him. Anyone with a discerning eye can see which is the better choice, and,
"I just want to go with him. I like him and I want to be with him. Is that clear enough?"
She was really becoming rebellious.
Why do other girls who travel through books have women on both sides? Why can they live freely and unrestrainedly according to their hearts?
But she just had to hide it, as if she had done something terrible.
She just likes someone.
If she were Xu Xing'er, she would never fall in love with Wei Yuan no matter what. Even if she did, she would force herself to let go.
But she is not. She is just an outsider who falls in love with a man of the right age who she lives with day and night as part of a mission.
The man happened to like her and was even more love-sick than she was.
She just wanted to be with him, so what?
What's wrong?
How can it be so unforgivable and so intolerable?
Not only the system and the Book of Beasts, but now even Kunlun is coming to stop us?
She just refused to do it.
Then, she swept her eyes over everyone and said word by word, "Uncle Master, I'm not lying to you, nor am I doing this for some prophecy of salvation. I just like him, very much. So, I want to go with him. I'm not asking for your consent. Of course, I'd be very happy if you agree, but even if you don't, I'll still go with him."
Wei Yuan's body, which had been extremely tense just now, softened instantly after hearing these words. All his hostility disappeared, and his thumb hooked her fingertips again and again.
Gu Nuo's expression turned particularly pale. After a while, he said, "Don't you care about your father anymore? If he knew——"
"My father should be happy. No matter what, I've achieved my reputation as a savior, haven't I?" Xu Xingxing laughed. "Isn't this what I was born for?"
Jiang Sheng suddenly took over, his voice filled with anger: "I don't care what your father said, your mother gave birth to you just to let you exist in this world, that's all!"
Xu Xingxing looked over and smiled: "Really? Then I have to thank my mother."
It was probably the casualness in Xu Xingxing's words that stung Jiang Sheng. Her eyes were about to burst. "Xing'er, I'm different from Shen Li. She sees you as a comfort, but I feel extremely heartbroken just by seeing you. That's why I've been deliberately avoiding you since you were born... I know about the quarrel between you and your father, and I've also heard a few reasons. I never told you because I didn't dare to go see you. I'm sorry, I should have told you earlier."
"At the time, I didn't believe the prophecy from the Tianji Pavilion and urged your mother many times... to abort you, but your mother always disagreed. She said she was grateful for the prophecy. If it weren't for it, Xu Yi would never have agreed to let her give birth to you. But she wanted to give birth to you and keep you alive."
Xu Xingxing looked at Jiang Sheng, then thought of Xu Xinger's mother, and put away her smile: "But she didn't ask me whether I really wanted to exist in this world."
Does Xu Xinger want to?
She doesn't know.
But when she was abandoned by her parents, she didn't think much about it.
But when her grandfather took her in, she thought again.
Only when people live in love can they flourish in the sun.
So she chose Yuyuan now, probably subconsciously wanting it to be more prosperous.
"Let's go." She said to Yuan.
"Xing'er." Chen Li suddenly spoke, startling everyone in the room again. What was even more surprising was that this time she didn't just call out. She looked at Xu Xingxing for a moment, then said, "Xing'er, come here. I have something to tell you."
The voice was clear, as if he had regained consciousness.
Xu Xingxing was stunned and hesitated for a moment. Then, thinking of the gentle and loving person in Xu Xinger's memory, her heart softened and she asked Xu Yuan to send her over.
As soon as Xu Xingxing sat down opposite Chen Li, Chen Li took her hand and said to the side: "I want to talk to Xing'er alone."
Jiang Sheng and Gu Nuo exchanged a glance. Just as they were about to say something, Chen Li's expression suddenly turned cold. "What? You won't even allow this little request? Then I might as well die with that enchanter!"
Seeing that Chen Li was getting more and more excited, Xu Xingxing gave Gu Nuo and Jiang Sheng a reassuring look and said, "I'm saying goodbye to my godmother."
Gu Nuo took a worried look before stepping back five meters.
Chen Li looked at Hou Yuan again. Xu Xingxing understood and whispered to him several times, trying to get him to leave. Hou Yuan always disagreed. Seeing Chen Li's face getting worse and worse, he finally drooped and started crying.
Xu Xingxing really had no choice but to kiss him, which made Wei Yuan calm down and step back a few meters.
A cold look flashed across Shen Li's eyes, and then they returned to their previous state after a moment. He then pulled her aside and started chatting about family matters.
Really homely.
From the time Xu Xing'er was born to the time she started babbling, and then to the time she was forced by Xu Yi to start learning sword, he described every single thing, no matter how big or small, and when he talked about the touching parts, he would shed tears several times.
Xu Xingxing has always had a strong ability to empathize. Seeing Chen Li crying, and then thinking of the suffering she went through later, he would shed a few tears too.
After Chen Li finished speaking, he looked at her for a long time and said, "You and your mother look very similar, Xing'er. Do you know why your mother was so weak that she died in childbirth?"
Xu Xingxing looked at Chen Li in front of him. Although he felt a little strange, he quickly ignored it because of the woman's gentle eyes and eyebrows: "I know."
When they were young, Chen Li and Xu Yi told Xu Xing'er this story more than once.
Xu Xing'er's mother was seriously injured in a battle. Even after she recovered, she was still weak and sick, and was bedridden.
Chen Li caressed her face and said, "So, you should know that your mother's death was the fault of the demons, it was Yu Yuan's fault. How can you forgive him so easily?"
The hand on her face was cold and icy, but Xu Xingxing did not refuse. She looked at Chen Li's eyes full of sorrow and tried to explain: "Godmother——"
"You're still in love with him?" Chen Li interrupted her, "You said this on purpose to make your father sad, right?"
Xu Xingxing listened to the slightly paranoid tone, gave up explaining, and replied directly and seriously: "No, I really like him."
Chen Li was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Is that so, is that so..."
The next moment, Xu Xingxing suddenly felt a murderous aura approaching, and she subconsciously stretched out her hand to block it. The sword blade pierced through the back of her hand and penetrated into her heart as deep as a finger.
At the same time, a sharp "Li'er" made her look up.
A black gas condensed into a sharp blade and instantly pierced into Gu Nuo's back as he rushed over, then rushed out from Chen Li's chest at an extremely fast speed and stopped just in front of Xu Xingxing.
