Chapter 41: Exiled Immortal Am I Good-Looking?
This was Xu Xingxing's first time to come to the back mountain of Qingzhou.
This mountain covers a large area and is sparsely populated, so the snow has not been cleared.
The snow has cleared and the clouds are light, but the sunlight is still cold, and the frost is white everywhere, just like a fairyland.
Xiao Hei found a small pavilion in the mountains and cast a spell, which dispersed the thick snow around him.
He warmed up the cold stone bench slightly and gently placed her on it.
Xu Xingxing wasn't afraid of the cold anymore, but that didn't mean she liked it. So after sitting down, her butt warmed up, and her heart warmed too.
hey-hey.
very nice.
Xiao Hei is so nice.
Afterwards, Xiao Hei sat down on the stone bench beside her. He was dressed in black clothes, his figure was unparalleled, and the tips of his ears were red, but he never dared to look at her from beginning to end.
Xu Xingxing pursed her lips lightly, feeling happy.
She held her face with both hands to lower the temperature a little, and glanced at Xiao Hei secretly.
By the way…she hasn’t hugged him enough.
Just now she noticed Xiao Hei's mood, her blood instantly boiled, hormones and estrogen took over, she lost all her rationality, felt dizzy, and wanted to find someone to lean on.
After all, she really needed comfort at that time.
Besides, she had imagined that tragic event countless times, how could she not be shaken at all?
So she indulged herself and became unrestrained, not caring about anything else. She only wanted to hug him and be closer to him, which made her feel more at ease.
Okay, she is really at peace now.
Seeing Xiao Hei gazing into the distance in a daze, she felt not only at ease but also calm.
So, after the enthusiasm faded, she successfully felt embarrassed in this silent and cold back mountain.
No, why isn't he talking?
It's a icy place in this snowy cave, and there's not even a sound of birds singing. Just the two of them were hugging each other, and it's very embarrassing for these two ambiguous creatures to just sit there, okay?
After blaming Xiao Hei, he started blaming himself.
How could she lose her brain and intelligence so easily?
Find a place where there is no one?
Should we find a place to eat?
Speaking of eating, I'm really hungry.
She looked at the sun again and thought, "Let's go, let's go eat now." Isn't that a bit crazy...
Since we are here, we might as well make the best of it. We have to sit for at least half an hour before we can leave!
So, Xu Xingxing, who had become more open-minded, began to think about how to break this awkward situation.
Looking at Xiao Hei's fascinated look at the scenery, it seems that she is the only one who feels uncomfortable now.
I understand...
After all, she was the one who just hugged me and wouldn't let go, even pushing herself into my arms...
Memories come back, the touch is clear...
She blushed again.
Fortunately, Xiao Hei on the side remained calm, looking at the snow scene in the distance from beginning to end, and no one knew what he was thinking.
She thought for a moment and was the first to break the silence: "Hahaha, the scenery here is quite nice."
Xiao Hei looked at the mountains not far away, smiled meaningfully, and said, "That's right."
Xu Xingxing looked at his now relaxed appearance and thought to himself: You are getting by quickly.
Seeing that Xiao Hei really no longer thought about what happened before, the discomfort in her heart completely dissipated, and another obscure emotion slowly rose.
I felt suffocated and didn't want to talk anymore.
The surroundings returned to silence, with only the slight sound of the wind. Xiao Hei placed one hand casually on the table, turned slightly sideways and looked at the lower mountains in the south - the place he had been looking at since he sat down.
Xu Xingxing looked over unhappily, then her eyes lit up and her gloomy mood disappeared completely.
I saw that the sunlight there took shape because of the mist in the mountains, outlining the area. The mist was rising, as if if I could push away the layer of lingering clouds, I could see the banished immortal from another world living there.
As she looked, her gaze naturally fell on Xiao Hei.
His profile was delicate and smooth, his slightly curved eyelashes were stained with light, turning them into golden feathers, his black eyes were bright, his hair danced in the light, his figure was outstanding, and it was difficult to tell whether he was a man or a woman, like a fairy hidden in the mountains.
Xiao Hei...
She almost regretted giving him such a name. He wasn't dark at all, but very fair, almost whiter than she was. In the light of the snow, before the pavilion's eyes, he looked so fragile that he seemed about to transform into an immortal if he wasn't careful.
She narrowed her eyes, looked at his hand on the table, stretched out her own claws, and quietly moved closer to compare carefully...
Damn! He's really whiter than her!
Xu Xing'er is considered to be a very cold and fair person, but what kind of dead person is he!
Secretly dissatisfied, she curled her lips slightly and hummed softly. When she raised her eyes to continue admiring, she met the boy's eyes again.
Why did she use "又"?
Xiao Hei looked at him leisurely, a smile on his face: "What are you doing?"
"..." Xu Xingxing put on her usual silly smile, "I'm admiring your divine beauty."
The smile between Xiao Hei's eyebrows became even more intense. He slowly moved his face closer, stopping at a position where she could see everything on his face clearly, but not too close. His already pleasant voice added a touch of warmth, making people's hearts itch for no reason: "Am I good-looking?"
Xu Xingxing cried for help in her heart, her breathing became slow, her eyes widened, and she even forgot to blink.
It’s too unfair to have the face so close!
She stepped back calmly, trying to make her breathing smoother, but she didn't forget to praise: "Of course you look good, you are the most beautiful person I have ever seen."
Xiao Hei also slowly moved forward along with her movements, always keeping a distance that was not too close but enough to make her fantasize: "Do you want it?"
Although Xu Xingxing's mind was a little dull due to shyness, he still instantly remembered what he said when she praised his beautiful hands before, "If you want it, I'll cut it off for you."
So, she quickly replied as if swearing: "I want you but not your skin!"
Xiao Hei was stunned. His eyes, which had been full of charm just now, immediately became clear. He looked at Xu Xingxing's eyes, which were four parts upright, five parts firm, but only one part shy. He felt choked for a moment and said, "Who wants to give it to you?"
After saying that, he withdrew and sat down.
The golden bells around his neck swayed with his movements, beautiful and attractive. The red silk around his neck was like the ribbon on a gift box, making people want to untie it to see what kind of surprise was tied with the silk.
Xiao Hei looked at that place again, then turned around as if he wanted to say something to her, but was stopped by Xu Xingxing's words.
"Xiao Hei, let me take this bell off."
Xiao Hei was slightly startled, then hid his emotions with a smile: "What? Aren't you afraid that I'll do something bad behind your back?"
Xu Xingxing scratched his face and said sincerely, "I'm afraid, but... I want to take it off for you."
When Yue Baiyin was telling her how they had used animal chains to restrain the spirit beasts to prevent them from escaping, she felt that the meaning of the chains was too cruel and should not be worn by someone she considered close to.
Xiao Hei's fingers unconsciously curled and unfolded, and he said, "If you don't trust me, then why did you take it off? Is it because I saved you that you think using this beast chain on me would make you seem unkind? It wouldn't be in keeping with your status as the Kunlun Immortal Lord, a benefactor of the world?"
Xu Xingxing was slightly puzzled, not understanding why his tone suddenly changed. However, seeing that his expression was no longer as sarcastic as before, she thought for two seconds and corrected herself, "Why don't I trust you? I just don't trust you completely... And why would I want to take down the bell just for myself? I just feel that after we've been through so much, I should trust you."
Xiao Hei's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he sneered, "Should I believe you? Xu Xianjun is really cautious. Even if I survived the thunder tribulation for you, I couldn't win back your trust. I was born evil, how shameful."
"..." Xu Xingxing felt that he could use this incident to control her for the rest of her life, so she smiled and comforted him, "No! How could you be evil? If you were evil, then there would be no good people in this world. When I say I don't completely believe you, I don't mean I don't believe you at all—"
"In this world, faith and disbelief are two extremes. If you believe, you believe. If you don't believe, even the slightest bit of trust doesn't count as faith," Xiao Hei snorted coldly, interrupting her. "Or is Xu Xianjun trying to spout nonsense? What kind of jokes are you adding?"
...What extremes on both sides, what every bit... Who is making trouble?
Xu Xingxing began to have a headache.
Why did this dog become more rebellious after being struck by lightning?
"Don't be angry." She pulled up Xiao Hei's sleeve and shook it. "Then I was wrong. I just want to clarify something."
"A lie can cost a person ten times his life. If Xu Xianjun doesn't believe me, then my answer will be a lie. In that case, why bother talking nonsense?" Xiao Hei glanced at the jade-like fingers pulling at his sleeves, and pulled his lip awkwardly, like a child, with a look of unwillingness to cooperate.
What a petty person.
Xu Xingxing pursed her lips, loosened her hand, and ignored his sarcastic tone, getting straight to the point: "What I want to ask is, why did Ji Chan turn into white smoke and enter your palm after his death? Why did you suddenly have a headache and faint? What happened that I don't know?"
"Can you tell me about it?"
The young man froze, his pupils shrank sharply, and the exaggerated awkwardness froze on his face. He looked at her without moving for a long time.
A light breeze blew by, and the snow on the high branches was blown down and into the pavilion, just like a small-scale heavy snowfall.
Xiao Hei lowered his eyes to hide his thoughts. He ignored the snow falling on his shoulder. When he raised his eyes again, his expression returned to normal. "Is this why you don't believe me?"
"No." Xu Xingxing said seriously, "I just have something I want to tell you. I won't feel at ease if I don't tell you."
"What did you say?"
"I feel relieved now that I've told you."
"What do you mean by relieved?" Xiao Hei asked with a frown.
"I believe you." Xu Xingxing answered sincerely, "At least I feel more at ease than now."
"Just that? Is that enough?" Xiao Hei frowned, his face full of disbelief.
"Yes." Xu Xingxing said as a matter of course, "Are there any other steps required?"
Xiao Hei choked again: "How casual."
Xu Xingxing put on a teacher's demeanor and nodded seriously. "If it weren't for the past and rules of this world, then whether I said it or not wouldn't have made a difference. But now that we have the precedent of the Demon-Exorcising War and the fear and hatred of the world behind us, I need to warn you. You're so smart, you'll definitely understand immediately. You certainly wouldn't go there knowing there's a tiger in the way."
Even though Xiao Hei had prepared himself, he still felt his heart aching when she said it so bluntly. He hid his hands in his sleeves, and used his thumb to dig his index finger hard, but his face showed no emotion at all.
"What if I was already at Tiger Mountain?"
What if I am that tiger?
