Fei Wan was inevitably distracted by the lingering thought in his mind.
Just as she was about to grab the vine and reach the top, the originally strong vine suddenly loosened, and Fei Wan watched it break bit by bit.
Is this because she can't bear her weight?
Small stones rolled down bit by bit along the vines, narrowly brushing past Fei Wan's side and covering him with dust.
Under such circumstances, Fei Wan decisively threw away the vines and grabbed the rocks on the edge of the cliff. The vines had already scratched her flesh, not to mention the sharp point of the rock piercing her palm.
Fei Wan took a deep breath. She couldn't let go, but she didn't care about the pain. She had never felt so aggrieved before.
She wouldn't have gone to such great lengths if it weren't for the desire to use enough bait to catch the fish lurking in the depths.
"Senior Sister!"
When Fei Wan's vision went dark, the boy's pleasant and clear voice rang in his ears.
Fei Wan raised her head, with a hint of surprise and a touch of grievance in her eyes, but it completely disappeared when she saw the man's beautiful eyebrows and eyes. A smile appeared on the corner of her lips.
"Nanxing...it's you. I can't hold on any longer."
The rock gradually loosened, and the girl's scarred hands seemed to be unable to hold on to the edge.
Seeing this, Ye Nanxing disregarded his own safety, reached out and pulled the girl up.
"Sister, I'm late, I'm sorry."
Ye Nanxing picked her up and found that the person in his arms was as light as a catkin. The boy's eyes were filled with self-blame.
"Ahem... no need to. I didn't think too much and fell into someone else's trap." Fei Wan twitched the corner of his lips, his eyes brightening. "But... I found my master."
Ye Nanxing paused, then said distressedly, "Even so, Senior Sister, please don't take risks again. I'm sure Master wouldn't want to see that either."
The girl trembled slightly in his arms, as if she had a chill, and murmured softly, "Who did this? I think I just accidentally entered the realm of Master's consciousness. If he hadn't found me in time, I would have almost been unable to return."
The girl buried herself in his arms, her voice muffled.
Being so close to the girl, I could clearly hear her trembling breathing.
Ye Nanxing felt the girl's sadness, and his expression was somewhat touched. He finally rubbed her hair.
At this moment, a jade pendant on Fei Wan's waist lit up with a faint light.
Fei Wan's eyes fell on the jade pendant.
This was a gift from Rongze to her before. Once he was near her, the jade pendant would light up.
"Master, he's coming."
Ye Nanxing's voice was gentle, "Don't be afraid."
After hearing this, Fei Wan should have felt relieved.
The person in his arms choked up.
“Master…”
Ye Nanxing paused, hiding the complex emotions in his eyes, and said with a little confusion.
"Senior Sister, what's wrong?"
A hint of loneliness flashed across Fei Wan's eyes, but it quickly disappeared. She thought she had concealed her emotions well and forced a smile, "It's okay."
"Please put me down. Can you... stand in front of me? I'm not ready to see the Master yet."
Ye Nanxing didn't ask any more questions and just followed her wishes.
"Nanxing... no matter what I do, you won't hate me?"
The girl's clear voice came from behind.
Ye Nanxing smiled and was about to respond as usual, but his pupils suddenly shrank.
He turned around and saw no sadness on the girl's face. The weakness she had shown before was gone, and the Ling Xi sword that belonged to her also pierced through his body.
He spat out a mouthful of blood and opened his thin lips, but found it difficult to speak.
Fei Wan smiled and spoke first: "I guessed right, you are not Song Ditang, nor are you Ye Nanxing, from the beginning to the end. Perhaps I should call you... Lord Demon?"
