Chapter 65 I can promise again
Ye Wuluo felt as if he had been doused with cold water. He had tried to help her with good intentions, but he was repeatedly met with cold shoulders.
"How can we be completely unrelated? When we first met in the secret realm, you cried and called my name when you were possessed by the inner demon. Now that we're about to leave the secret realm, you want to sever all ties with me?" Ye Wulu's beautiful peach blossom eyes were filled with a resolute determination. "Little Yue'er, you can hate me and despise me, but it's impossible for you to be unrelated to me."
Seeing the red-clad figure turn away with a flick of her sleeve, Mu Jianjian hurriedly left the pool and said to Sang Wanyue, "Yueyue, I'll be right back."
Hearing the girl's hurried footsteps as she left, Sang Wanyue's emotions were ambiguous, but eventually turned to worry, so she got up and followed.
The rooms in the Zhu Pavilion are divided into four grades, with the higher-grade rooms located at the top. The pavilion is hollow, and the staircase is carved from spirit stone, spiraling upwards.
"etc!"
Ye Wulu frowned when he saw the girl blocking his way on the stairs. "Get out of the way."
"Don't you want to know the reason for Lan Yi and Yue Yue's fight?"
Mu Jianjian was not afraid at all. She met Ye Wuluo's eyes and saw endless irritation and rage brewing in his dark eyes.
She was terrified of being slapped to death, but when she saw that the other party, although not saying a word after hearing about Sang Wanyue, did not seem to want to chase her away.
Mu Jianjian felt much more at ease.
It seems that Ye Wuluo is starting to care about Yueyue now, but he probably still cares about the existence of the original owner of the white moonlight and hasn't realized it yet.
"It's because Lan Yi said Yueyue doesn't deserve to stay by your side and wants to teach her a lesson for you!" When it was Mu Jianjian's turn to speak freely, she was full of resentment and tears streamed down her face. "Why does he think like that? Doesn't the Holy Son know?"
The translation is: Don't you have any self-awareness?
Ye Wuluo's aura grew even colder.
His swift killing of Lan Yi was actually more about the fact that Lan Yi was a traitor and suspected of siding with the Grand Elder, and it would also help him gain favor with Xiao Yue'er—killing two birds with one stone.
He didn't even consider the reason why.
I see.
He was in such a hurry that he couldn't have killed him with a single blow; he should have tortured him a bit more.
"Didn't you even think about the reason?" Seeing Ye Wuluo's gloomy expression, Mu Jianjian roughly guessed what he was thinking. "What exactly do you take Yueyue for?"
She had to push Ye Wulu a few more times to make him face his feelings, so that he wouldn't be confused and clueless in the later stages.
This is my first attempt to turn a sadomasochistic romance into a sweet and fluffy story.
Ye Wulu was stumped by the question.
The first time I realized that this person existed was because Jianjian gave away the Buddha Heart Grass that he had given her.
The young girl never gave away the things he gave her, so he sent someone to investigate her.
She is Jianjian's half-sister.
The Holy Lotus Pavilion has always possessed a secret technique for transforming bones and tendons, and blood ties are one of the most stable factors in exchanging meridians.
He initially approached Sang Wanyue with this intention, but when he first met her and saw her fall into a demonic state, crying out his name in a hoarse voice, something seemed to take root and sprout in his heart.
"You really do resemble someone."
Ye Wulu shook his golden fan and, in a slow and deliberate voice, raised another question.
She's been exposed, recognized?
Mu Jianjian subconsciously reached out to touch if the human skin mask was still there.
The man in front of him said again, "It looks a lot like a flea that fell off a cliff earlier."
Mu Jianjian: ...
She noticed the fleeting killing intent in Ye Wuluo's eyes, and the slightly raised golden fan.
Ahhh!
Classic: I am just like myself!
He's willing to kill at the slightest disagreement. Sure enough, Ye Wuluo's emotions were most volatile and perverse when he talked about Sang Wanyue!
Mu Jianjian was about to step back when she saw the other person's hand, which was raising a fan, suddenly stop, as if it had been pressed down by something. A male voice came from above her head.
"Junior sister."
Mu Jianjian looked up and saw a man in white standing by the stairs, looking at her with a gentle smile.
Senior brother!
Mu Jianjian couldn't help but smile, and with two quick hops, she landed behind Chi Wenqing, peeking out.
Ye Wulu felt as if his hand had been weighed down by a thousand pounds, but now that his wrist was loose, he turned his fan with a deep look in his eyes.
Chi Wenqing, fellow disciple...
Is she a disciple of the Xuan Shuang Sect?
Looking at the white-clad man standing on the stairs, coldly watching him, Ye Wulu felt an uneasy feeling.
Everyone says that Chi Qiong's son, Chi Wenqing, was adopted by the leader of the Xuan Shuang Sect, but he has extremely poor talent and is a good-for-nothing. So what was the pressure he felt on his wrist just now?
Even the third level of Qi Condensation is using a "Heavenly" room on the fourth floor... It seems one really can't listen to rumors.
Ye Wuluo looked up at the two people standing one in front of the other on the stairs. The twelve golden fans slowly opened on four sides, and then he heard a female voice coming from behind him.
Sang Wanyue emerged from the shadows.
She followed Mu Jianjian out and listened for a long time. She cast a reassuring look at the girl with a concerned expression, and then said to Ye Wuluo, "Let's have a good talk."
“Didn’t Xiaoyue say we have nothing to do with each other?” Ye Wuluo immediately put down his golden fan, moved closer to Sang Wanyue, and looked pleased.
Mu Jianjian tugged at Chi Wenqing's clothes, watching Ye Wuluo follow Sang Wanyue away. Suddenly, she remembered that in the original book, Yueyue had also pulled Ye Wuluo aside to talk things out here.
The only difference is that the people present here are different from those in the original book.
Wait, who was present in the original book?
Mu Jianjian began to desperately recall.
Unbeknownst to many, the original book also featured the four main characters meeting, but it wasn't her and her senior brother; it was Rong Yuqi and Zhong Chuan.
In the inner layer of the secret realm, after being separated from Ye Wuluo by accident, Sang Wanyue encountered Zhong Chuan, who was crippled in both legs, and Rong Yuqi.
When she saw Zhong Chuan, who had been tricked and ended up in this predicament, she thought of herself in her previous life when her meridians were replaced. So she felt pity and protected him all the way, sending him to the Zhu Pavilion and even sharing most of his beast core with him.
Zhong Chuan naturally developed a liking for such a strong and kind woman, while Rong Yuqi played the role of a background character from beginning to end.
So, does that mean the person Yueyue was supposed to protect changed from Zhong Chuan to her?
Mu Jianjian repents.
She immediately realized that if Zhong Chuan didn't have Sang Wanyue's protection, although he wouldn't die halfway with his trump cards, Rong Yuqi would definitely suffer!
"One link after another, you'd think they were rushing to catch up."
Mu Jianjian cried out in distress.
Chi Wenqing withdrew his gaze from Ye Wuluo, looked down and saw the girl with her head drooping, and suddenly asked.
"Jianjian, what promise did you make when you parted ways with me?"
"Uh..." Mu Jianjian touched her nose guiltily, recalling Chi Wenqing's admonition to her not to take any risks when they were in the Wood Spirit Clan.
How could they have noticed that?
The toxins in her body were removed, and her right arm and right eye recovered completely. How could anyone tell?
Mu Jianjian decided to deny it to the death, her voice light and tinged with ignorance, "I really didn't take any risks."
“Ah,” Chi Wenqing nodded thoughtfully, “So there was no adventure after all. Then why did the pointed veil fall off and it was replaced with a human skin mask?”
After dealing with the sycophant in the inner level of the secret realm, he prepared to seek revenge on the old man Cai Chu for his past life's grudge. However, in the cave, he found a shattered red token engraved with the character "慕" (Mu).
It was given to him by Jianjian on the first day after his rebirth.
Looking at the dismembered limbs and blood on the ground, if he hadn't once engraved his divine sense into Jianjian's body to know that she was still alive, he probably would have gone insane.
“Because…a human skin mask is more convenient, and Yueyue happened to have one, so I wore it,” Mu Jianjian forgot about this and began to stammer, “Wearing a veil is too troublesome.”
Where is the veiled hat?
"Senior brother, you can't do this!" Mu Jianjian lost her patience and raised her voice, but seeing Chi Wenqing's smile gradually disappear, she finally got scared and her momentum weakened a lot. "Okay... Yueyue and I encountered an old man who used poison, so we fought with him."
The girl's voice was pleasing.
"What do you think we should do, Jianjian?" Chi Wenqing leaned closer to the girl, his breath gentle and fragrant, but Mu Jianjian sensed danger.
what to do?
Mu Jianjian blurted out, "I can promise you one more time."
