Chapter 129 Soul I can now
At this point, Xu Xingxing pinched his ear helplessly. "Just to make me feel bad, to put me in moral shackles, you've tortured yourself into this state. Are you stupid? Don't you feel the pain? If I'm late today, would you really let someone rip your skin off?"
"So what?" He paused, his voice lowering. "My only concern is that I'd scare you, and that you'd... think I'm ugly... The rest doesn't matter."
Xu Xingxing's fingers, which had been pinching his ear, slid across the lip she had just bitten. "How is it nothing? Xiao Hei, you keep saying I'm yours, but who are you?"
Zhu Yuan's body trembled, and he extended his red tongue to gently lick the restless fingertips. Then he asked softly and uncertainly, "...Xingxing, do you want me?"
I don't want you, how dare I not want you? !
Listen to your green tea quotes!
Xu Xingxing almost wanted to bite his lips again, her voice unconsciously tinged with anger: "What do you mean by wanting you? If you don't let me want you, who else do you want? We've been doing this and that, and you don't admit it?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Yuan straightened up immediately, eyes wide open, and retorted, "How can I deny it? It's obviously you who always refuses to admit it."
Xu Xingxing was powerless to refute for a moment, then waved his long arm, with a look of great righteousness: "Alright! Then I will tell you this openly today. You, Xu Yuan, belong to me, Xu Xingxing! Therefore, from head to toe, from your hair to your fingernails, everything on you is mine. You must take good care of them and not let them get hurt. If you deliberately hurt them again..."
She pondered for a moment and concluded, "Then you can just sleep on the floor! I won't share a bed with you, let alone kiss or cuddle, not even holding hands. Do you hear me?!"
Zhu Yuan's eyes grew wider and brighter, almost like two light bulbs illuminating the cave. He took a deep breath and remained silent for a long time before responding, "...I heard you."
One part grievance, nine parts joy.
His heart was beating fast and hard, and his arms held her tightly, not looking like a seriously injured person at all.
He leaned his forehead against hers and smiled foolishly, calling out "Xingxing" one by one, like a fool.
The unhappiness that lingered in Xu Xingxing's heart was mostly dispelled by the joy that emanated from this man. The corners of her lips unconsciously curled up, and she leaned over to kiss his bitten lips, muttering, "Luckily I left quickly. Not to mention that you were completely skinned, even if you were like this now, my heart aches so much that I feel like dying..."
As he spoke, Xu Xingxing's emotions, which had just improved, began to fall uncontrollably again. "...And the poisonous insects, are they still in your body? Does it hurt? Is there any way to get them out?"
Zhu Yuan's eyelashes trembled slightly. He let the woman kiss him on the lips and asked in a low voice, "...How did Xingxing know about the Gu worm?"
Xu Xingxing was furious when she heard this. She straightened up and began to talk about the male concubine. However, she was interrupted by Yuan halfway through. His voice was slightly surprised: "You... killed him?"
"Yes." Xu Xingxing replied, "Not only him, I also killed the princess and several male favorites who committed evil. If I wasn't so anxious to find you, I would have set fire to the princess's mansion."
Zhu Yuan's voice trembled. "...Xingxing...I guessed it then. Wouldn't your illusion collapse if you did this?"
Xu Xingxing replied in surprise, "How is that possible? My mind was dazed at the time, and I was only thinking about how to find you. How could I have the energy to think about such complicated things? I just wanted to kill them when I saw them, without considering the consequences. It was not until I rescued you, calmed down a little, and recalled everything that had happened before that I felt something was wrong."
"Why... don't you consider the consequences?" Hou Yuan was a little incoherent. "If the illusion collapses, all our previous efforts will be in vain. You... don't want to save Gu Nuo and Bai Ze anymore?"
Xu Xingxing seemed to know what Wei Yuan was going to ask. She found his hand and clasped it tightly. "It's wasted, so be it. I'll bear the consequences with you. Even if it's about... my uncle, I'll bear it with you. It wasn't until then that I realized... how much you meant to me... Even if this is an illusion, I couldn't bear to see you suffer like that."
She placed Hou Yuan's hand on her cheek and gently rubbed it, then continued, "Xiao Hei, from now on, I will bear your mistakes with you, and I will also face Kunlun's hatred with you. I... can't bear to see you do that for me. I was really scared at that time... I even scratched my own neck..."
Her hand was suddenly tightened, and the hand on her waist squeezed her so hard that it hurt: "You... commit suicide?"
Wei Yuan's voice suddenly stopped, and his head was buzzing.
Yes, the clothes are no longer the maids' clothes in the princess's mansion...
Because of that incident, Xingxing would automatically come to him in the illusion, but he forgot that Xingxing had mentioned this matter before, and he just casually brushed it off.
What would Xingxing think? She would definitely think that all those anomalies were related to the illusion array, so in order to find him quickly, she committed suicide and sacrificed the maid's body...
He actually...actually had no idea...
Even when she saw the jailer's clothes, she thought it was because he was far away and her soul had followed him...
How could he be so stupid?!
He said he would protect her and bless her, but he left her alone in such a desperate situation!
He should have thought of this when she mentioned the male favorite! He should have thought of this when she mentioned killing the princess! But why! He only thought of this now!
Wei Yuan's breathing stopped, his body became extremely stiff, blood and tears fell uncontrollably, and his heart felt like it was being torn apart.
He... actually made the person dear to his heart suffer so much.
Committing suicide...committing suicide... How painful it must be for her...
It’s all because of him…
Xu Xingxing finally realized that something was wrong with Xu Yuan. She wanted to hold his face up to look at it, but he held her in his arms, buried his face in the crook of her neck, and kept muttering:
"sorry……"
Xu Xingxing felt the wetness on her neck, and a soft sour feeling welled up in her heart. She guessed what he was sad about, so she softly tried to comfort him, "It's okay, it's okay. Fortunately, I'm smart and thought of this—"
"It's all my fault." Yuan Yuan's throat was hoarse as if it had been torn apart, and the blood and energy around him became heavier because of his tense body.
"How can I blame you?" Xu Xingxing clapped his hands and coaxed, "This is my own choice—"
"There's one thing I've never mentioned to you." Yuan Yuan suddenly interrupted her.
Xu Xingxing asked in surprise: "What?"
The sound of rain was soft, neither too loud nor too soft. The coolness and dampness from the surroundings came over, but they could not cover the warmth of the person in front of him.
Wei Yuan slowly raised his head from the crook of her neck and looked at her seriously, "Do you know why you can't enter your sea of consciousness and contact the Book of Beasts? Do you know why you came directly into my illusion after coming out of the last illusion without even having to look for it?"
Xu Xingxing blinked. "Of course I don't know. But I couldn't figure it out, so I stopped thinking about it. Are you going to tell me?"
"Yes... I'm sorry, I shouldn't have hidden it from you." Hou Yuan looked at her, put her hand on his cheek and rubbed it, as if to give himself some courage, "I tore off a part of my soul and attached it to yours... on the day you said you would always find a way to leave me..."
Xu Xingxing was dazed for a moment, struggling to understand what he said: "That was the day you asked me to touch the letter in my heart?"
Zhu Yuan quickly embraced her in his arms, his expression extremely panicked: "I'm sorry, I... was too scared at that time. Using this method, I can completely wrap up the Book of Beasts and prevent it from bothering you again. Besides, I will be able to know where you go immediately. Even if you go to another world, I can still find you... Don't blame me, don't blame me, I was just... too scared..."
Xu Xingxing translated it in his mind, and in short it was:
Don't try to get rid of me wherever you go.
Forehead……
She was actually already used to this person's crazy train of thought. When she heard this, her first reaction was not "What the hell is this?", but:
"So...are you in pain?"
Wei Yuan shuddered, then replied in a daze, "...it doesn't hurt."
"It really doesn't hurt?"
Hou Yuan's expression was still cautious: "You don't blame me?"
"Why should I blame you?" Xu Xingxing actually felt relieved, as if she had been diagnosed with Stockholm syndrome. "But if you do something like this again next time, it's better to tell me first."
After saying this, she changed her mind and continued, "So, I always happen to possess people who are very close to you? And is this also why I transform into my own form when I'm close to you?"
"Yes." Guilt filled Yuan's eyes. "The soul in your body will automatically come to find me in this illusion. I should have told you earlier. It's all my fault..."
"It's indeed your fault." Xu Xingxing said pua, "But it's not too late for you to tell me now. Don't hide anything from me in the future."
"No, never again." Wei Yuan shed tears of blood again. He held her hand tightly. "Next time you want to find me, you don't have to use that method. As long as I'm safe, you will naturally come to me after you wake up. Don't hurt yourself again. You're like this... It would be better if someone peeled my skin off so that I can come back."
"I couldn't sleep in that situation..." Xu Xingxing asked, "Then why did I end up possessing that maid? I haven't seen you for a long time?"
The woman's expression was completely normal, not even a hint of anger. However, Wei Yuan couldn't let go of the worry he had raised. "At that time, the only people around me were the princess and her male companions. They were testing poison on me day and night... I didn't want you to see me in such a state of disgrace."
After saying this, Wei Yuan turned his face away again, hiding his eyes that were still filled with tears.
Xu Xingxing thought that this man had cried too many times since she rescued him. The dignified Demon God had actually become a little crybaby. She looked at the boy's trembling pupils hidden in the dark, and the tears that kept sliding down his delicate pale face, and her heart softened.
She raised her hand to wipe away the tears hanging on his chin, sighed and said: "You obviously want to make me feel distressed, so forget it if you don't let me see it. Then why didn't you tell me that they tortured you like that when I went to see you in the middle of the night last time?"
Wei Yuan really didn't expect this matter to be over so quickly. He looked at the woman and turned the page again: "Xingxing...are you really not angry?"
"Hmm?" Xu Xingxing guessed what he meant and smacked her lips. "I'm not angry, I'm just surprised. Why can't I sense it?"
"I hope you never know, how could I let you know?"
Xu Xingxing: ...
I have to say that he is now more frank and has less psychological pressure.
Xu Xingxing asked again: "Will you peek at me? Will you peek at me when I'm taking a shower?"
Zhu Yuan's face suddenly flushed, his eyebrows twitched, and he forgot to cry: "If I don't deliberately explore, I won't know everything."
Xu Xingxing said "oh" and asked, "Can you read minds?"
"cannot."
Xu Xingxing sent another low-pitched "oh," and said rather disappointedly, "I just deliberately said I love you several times in my heart, but you didn't hear it? It was all in vain."
Seeing that Hou Yuan's eyes had become clear again, with a blood-red tear hanging from the corner of his eye, as charming as a tear mole, she smiled and pecked him, saying, "I'm really not angry. Answer my question quickly."
Looking at the woman's curved eyebrows, Xingyuan's heart trembled violently. He was obviously very happy, but he felt a tight pain in his heart. He hugged her, kissed her gently, and said softly: "What does it matter whether I tell you about those things or not? I was originally in a weak position, and it's not just that one thing that Xingxing felt distressed about. Besides...even if I wanted to tell Xingxing at that time, Xingxing wouldn't have had the patience to listen."
Xu Xingxing: ...
She was a little angry and pushed his face away: "Am I such a person who forgets everything when seeing beauty?"
Unexpectedly, Wei Yuan burst into tears. He stubbornly grabbed her hand and leaned over to kiss her: "I am. As soon as I saw you, there was nothing else in my mind. I only wanted to make love with you and possess you..."
Xu Xingxing saw his tears and suddenly felt helpless. She softened her body and accepted his kiss, whispering, "What's wrong? I'm not angry, but you're not happy either..."
"Nothing." Yuan's tears kept falling, but he kept kissing her, "I'm just scared, I'm so scared... Are you in pain? It's all my fault..."
It’s not over yet…
Xu Xingxing held his face and kissed him back. After the kiss, she said softly, "Do you remember what Yue Baiyin and I said when we were in Qingzhou?"
"I remember, how could I not remember..." I will never forget it even if I die.
"I said, 'If you must die, then I will die before you.' I wasn't lying to you. You're important. Promise me you won't get hurt again, okay?" Xu Xingxing pecked his lips. "Besides, I didn't feel any pain at the time. It really hurt when I saw that man peeling your skin off..."
"I don't want it. I want the stars to live. Live with me!" Wei Yuan's tears fell even more, unable to stop. He warned like a child, "Don't ever mention this word again. Remember?"
Xu Xingxing coaxed her into a kiss, "Remember, remember, Master Demon, please bless me with a long life."
She used all her skills and finally calmed the boy down.
Full of tricks means that the clothes are half open, the shoulders are half exposed, the skin is touching, the breath is blending, and the heat is hard to hide.
Xu Xingxing felt that this was not right, as this man was a seriously injured patient. However, no matter how many times she tried to stop, he would attack even more fiercely. She tried to dissuade him several times, but she could not suppress the anger that had already been ignited.
So she slightly withdrew her face, becoming a sudden dispellant of the ambiguous atmosphere: "Xiao Hei, so if the whole body is peeled off, will that place... still be usable? Haven't you thought about how we will do this and that after peeling off the skin?"
Yu Yuan paused in a daze, as if thinking about what she meant.
The next moment his body froze, and even his brothers calmed down.
Even though there was no light in this cave, Xu Xingxing could imagine that his face must be as dark as it was at night.
A cool breeze brought the rain in, dispersing some of the stuffiness in the cave.
She wanted to jump away before the man attacked, but he quickly pinned her down and pressed her even closer. The burning heat made her whole body numb. Her hand, blocking the two of them, was like an ant trying to shake a tree.
No, is he injured?
Xu Xingxing hurriedly said, "Blood! Our coat is soaked! We only have this set of clothes, don't rush—"
The word "动" was bitten in someone's mouth. When she came to her senses, the person had been stripped naked, and the blood on his back had soaked the stone beneath him.
Xu Xingxing finally found a gap between the man's lips and teeth, grabbed the man's long hair and apologized in a trembling voice: "I was wrong... I was wrong... I won't tease you anymore, please don't, is your blood so worthless!"
The man finally recovered from his lust and bit her collarbone, saying, "If I really did that... would Xingxing still want me?"
Xu Xingxing: ...
No, how should I answer this...
If I say I want you to do that, is that okay? If I say I don’t want to, what crazy things are you waiting for me?
After a moment's deliberation, Xu Xingxing quickly held his face as he tried to lower it again and said, "If you can, I'll think about it. If you can't, I'll wait until you can. But not now!"
Zhu Yuan's eyelids trembled slightly, his watery eyes were blurred, and his voice was seductive: "Why? I can do it now..."
