Kong Huanyi issued an order to expel Ning Jie, so he had to leave the palace temporarily.
It was late at night and everything was quiet.
Due to the large-scale war during the day, the surrounding mountains and forests have become bare battlefields.
Therefore, not even the chirping of insects can be heard now.
Ning Jie came to the roof and sat down on the ridge. His mind was in a mess, so messy that he didn't even want to think.
In the blink of an eye, a jar of strong liquor appeared beside him. He slowly poured himself a full glass and raised it towards the lonely, cold and bright moon in the night sky.
Then he raised his hand, tilted his head back, and drank it all in one gulp.
Then he filled his own glass again, and after three glasses of liquor in a row, the hot feeling finally calmed his heart a little.
Thinking about the question again, how should I choose? Do I have to lose someone?
As he thought of this, Ning Jie looked up at the moon, with a hint of hope and even a hint of pleading in his confused eyes.
"Is there really no third way?"
"Is it all we can do, to sacrifice one person to save the other?"
"Why……"
Ning Jie said this with a somewhat lonely look in his eyes.
He reached out and grabbed the wine jar, and kept adding wine to himself, one cup after another.
Ning Jie did not use his spiritual power to dissipate the alcohol, so after such intense drinking, he finally felt a little relieved.
Ning Jie raised his head and drank another cup. He caught a glimpse of the double moon in his peripheral vision and a relieved smile appeared on his face.
"You are finally not alone anymore, hehe..."
Ning Jie smiled and slowly lay down along the roof, not noticing that a figure quietly emerged on the roof at this time.
Her pink and white hair was gently lifted by the evening breeze, and her originally ordinary long skirt fluttered in the wind.
It was the Holy Maiden Yaoguang.
She was just about to go to bed, but suddenly she felt a familiar scent on the roof.
Then he quietly came out to check, and saw Ning Jie drinking to drown his sorrows.
After thinking for a while, Saint Yaoguang decided to use her mind reading to see what Ning Jie was worried about before deciding whether to go up and disturb him.
So she looked at Ning Jie intently, and then a disjointed voice appeared in her mind.
"I'm sorry, Hexi... I will definitely find you!... Hexi!... I sent her to Miaoyin Sect as a spy."
"So I think it's only fair for you to decide this matter... That's enough, I don't need you to decide anymore. Get out of here. I've already fixed my avatar!"
After hearing this, Saint Yaoguang couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook her head.
After all, my master is a veteran in the love field who is active among top women. Why is his mind still so immature?
It seems that I need to go and have a chat with him.
Thinking of this, Saint Yaoguang raised her legs and walked lightly to Ning Jie's side, calling him softly.
"Owner."
Hearing this, Ning Jie nodded with a dazed look in his eyes. Saint Yaoguang did not conceal her aura when she approached, so he could naturally sense it.
If someone else approached, he would be able to use his spiritual power to dispel the alcohol in an instant and sober up instantly.
Saint Yaoguang looked at Ning Jie's listless appearance and felt helpless.
"Master, just now Yaoguang saw you drinking alone under the moon, trying to drown your sorrows, and she thought you had encountered some problems."
"So I used my mind-reading skills on the master without permission. I'm sorry!"
"I just wanted to see if I could be of any help, not to pry into the Master's thoughts!"
Saint Yaoguang took the initiative to admit that she used mind reading on Ning Jie, because only in this way could it be convenient for her to attack next!
Hearing this, Ning Jie did not react much, but just nodded slightly.
“No problem…”
Upon seeing this, Saint Yaoguang wanted to remind Ning Jie that this matter was not as difficult as he thought, but he was deceived by Kong Huanyi's tentative words.
But on second thought, this seems to be an opportunity for me to take down the master!
So when the words came out of his mouth, the taste was completely changed.
"Master, this is indeed a difficult decision. I'm not to blame you. Your reaction is fine. Don't dwell on it too much."
"In life, many choices are beyond our control. I believe this is not the first time you have experienced this, Master."
"Parting with life and death is also an indispensable part of life. Do you have to fall into confusion every time you say goodbye to a friend or family member?"
"You need to be more open-minded. In fact, you are not the one who makes the choice in this matter. You are the one who is chosen. You are chosen to bear the consequences of this choice."
"Someone has to sacrifice, Hexi did, and so did you."
Saint Yaoguang tried her best to make her words sound gentle. Against the backdrop of the moonlight, her beauty that did not belong to this dimension seemed to be sublimated again!
"But no matter how many people there are, no matter who leaves you, I will stay with you, with my master."
"If the master needs me, even if it's like Hexi... I'm willing!"
The real purpose is revealed!
Saint Yaoguang has been laying the groundwork for so long, and the time has finally come to see the dagger. At this moment, Saint Yaoguang is suppressing the excitement and anticipation in her heart.
She maintained a gentle appearance on the surface, but the heat in her heart made her cheeks burn red.
Anyway, I have finished flipping through the map. As for whether I can give up the dagger, it depends on Ning Jie's reaction!
It is no exaggeration to say that if it were the usual Ning Jie, he would definitely not be able to restrain himself from picking up his gun and dagger at this moment, but now.
