Why can they all get her through various means, but he, Ji Xiao, can't?
Why should he be the only one to abide by these so-called moral ethics?
Why should he be the only one who has to endure and restrain himself?
......
Ji Xiao's expression changed several times before finally returning to calm.
He said lightly: "If Senior Sister hopes that he will be fine, then he should be fine." Then he turned and left.
Gu Yangyang didn't understand what he meant and could only watch his figure disappear around the corner.
I thought that after Ji Xiao left, he would not come back until the evening like the previous two days, but I didn't expect that he just delivered the food box to the restaurant opposite and then appeared at the door again.
Gu Yangyang, who had just sat down not long ago, saw him standing at the door with a cold face, and stood up again as if by reflex.
"Ji Xiao..."
Ji Xiao walked in and closed the door again.
But this time, his momentum when he walked in was much more solemn than before...
He looked at Gu Yangyang, suddenly smiled, and said: "Senior Sister, you have been trapped in the Demon Realm and the Worm Valley for so long, you should be very curious about what has happened since you left Chongming Immortal Sect, right?"
Gu Yangyang's eyelashes trembled, and her eyes were all on him.
"Can you...tell me?"
She asked tentatively, not sure if Ji Xiao would be honest with her, but deep down, among the few people, she trusted Ji Xiao the most...
Others might keep things from her for various reasons, but Ji Xiao is different. His character means he won't lie...
The fact was just as Gu Yangyang thought. Ji Xiao looked at her nervous and expectant eyes, like a deer standing in the woods in the early morning, with curiosity and exploration in his clear eyes... In an instant, the voice that had been clamoring deep in his heart suddenly disappeared.
He walked over, his slow steps making almost no sound.
Sitting back in the original position, the sudden restrained aura made Gu Yangyang feel relieved and delighted at the same time.
She knew that this meant Ji Xiao was willing to tell her what had happened before.
......
"I have always thought that you would leave Chongming Immortal Sect sooner or later, but I never expected that this day would come so suddenly."
"Since you left, Senior Sister, the head of the sect has lost control of his inner demons and has gone astray. Not only has he destroyed the Jinlin Palace, he has also damaged the century-old mountain protection formation set up by the Chongming Immortal Sect, leading to the invasion of various evil spirits..."
"The elders and disciples of Chongming Xianzong have all suffered varying degrees of injuries in order to restore the sect leader to normal... They are now recuperating in various places."
"Wen Xia didn't originally belong to the Chongming Immortal Sect. After you left, Senior Sister, he also disappeared..."
"And I... knew that I had broken the rules, which led to the irreversible consequences now. In order to atone for my sins, I found Yan Wu who had been possessed by the devil..."
"No match for him... Seriously injured, and his natal sword was damaged."
Gu Yangyang listened in a daze. She didn't expect so many things to happen after she left.
She looked at Ji Xiao, "So what are you doing now..."
That day, when Ji Xiao rushed into the insect's belly alone with a sword in his hand, his aura was obviously more fierce than before.
"I am practicing swordsmanship. My natal sword is damaged and I am seriously injured... There is only one way to save myself, which is to reshape the sword."
"Fortunately, although the process of reshaping the sword was long and painful, I persevered..."
When he said this, Gu Yangyang noticed that Ji Xiao lowered his eyes slightly.
No matter how lightly the other party spoke, she could still feel the difficulty and pain of the process of reshaping the sword from these few words!
It took her a long while to speak: "Ji Xiao, I'm sorry, thank you for your hard work..."
She felt powerless, and she didn't know what else to say. After all, they were the ones who were hurt for so long, and she herself, under the protection of the system, had reduced the damage to a minimum, not to mention that everything was caused by her...
Her thoughts were so easy to guess that even if he couldn't hear her voice sometimes, Ji Xiao could see through what she was thinking at a glance.
"Things have developed to this point not because you wanted to see them, and it is certainly not caused by you." He said firmly, "So, Senior Sister, you don't need to blame yourself."
When Gu Yangyang suddenly heard his answer, a warm current seemed to flow into her heart, and the sudden strength supported her shaky heart.
Although she has tried her best to grow up and mature in this world, she still feels helpless and uneasy when she is alone with only a system to accompany her and often gets no response...
But now someone firmly told her that it was not her fault that things had turned out this way. Although it was just a short sentence, it was able to inject warmth and strength into her self-doubting heart, and it really calmed her floating heart.
"Ji Xiao, thank you..." She thanked him softly, and the vague sadness between her brows finally dissipated.
Ji Xiao took in this slight change and slowly loosened his clenched hands.
The things he was worried about were resolved, and seeing the girl return to her sunny and beautiful appearance, he could no longer hold back the selfish desires hidden deep in his heart.
"Senior Sister..." His voice suddenly became low and hoarse, "Now that the seal of the Demon Realm has been lifted, the demons can enter and leave the Demon Realm at will. Yan Wu and Wanqi Xiu are looking for you..."
"Senior sister... do you want to leave with me?"
"Leave?!" Gu Yangyang was shocked and subconsciously asked, "Where to?"
Ji Xiao's eyes were dark and gloomy, and his thin lips were pursed straight.
There seemed to be fire burning in the depths of his dark eyes; his gaze had never been so open and passionate as it was now!
"It doesn't matter where we go. The world is so vast. As long as you come with me, I will find a way to erase the consciousness that Yan Wu left on you..."
Gu Yangyang was shocked by his answer, as if she had not expected such words to come out of his mouth. Under Ji Xiao's scorching gaze, her mind was almost blank, and she could not think of any words to answer in a short time...
