Inside the house, Ronghua gently lulled Mengta to sleep. She looked calm and couldn't help smiling while looking at the face of the slumbering boy. It had been a long time since she last lulled a baby to sleep like this. Ronghua gently stroked Mengta’s soft cheek. "Have a good sleep!" She leaned down and kissed Mengta’s cheek, and then she covered him well with a quilt. After going out and closing the door gently, she waved her hand to make a spell boundary. She was not sure what might happen later. After all, no one should disturb the sleeping boy.
As soon as Ronghua turned around, she saw the couple in the courtyard, who was behaving in a strange state. Shigong was staring at Qingyi affectionately, while she was holding a cup of tea and tasting it slowly, paying no attention to him. Although her movement was elegant, she kept a pair of cold eyes and ignored him. Invisible power existed around her body, isolating herself from others. She looked awfully calm. Shigong kept his eyes fixed on her, but he dared not take any action that might annoy her. Being indifferent to others, he would only treat Qingyi so patiently. He knew that he could not enrage her now. Otherwise, he would have no chance of regret. He didn't know whether Qingyi's anger dissipated or not. If he made Qingyi unhappy because of a trivial thing, he would soon be overwhelmed by regret.
But for Qingyi, she was not just angry.
Ronghua walked over to sit by the table. She picked up the teapot and served tea for them. With corners of her mouth unconsciously rising, she said, "You two. One ran, and the other chased. One died, and the other waited. No one has changed even after so many years."
Qingyi just glanced at Ronghua and took a teacup, "Has no one changed?"
Hearing Ronghua's words, Shigong might not understand it at first. But when he heard the sentence "No one has changed", he began to understand and smiled unconsciously. Ronghua's promise to him was true, while Qingyi's promise to "Shigong" was also true. Qingyi turned her head and said to Shigong, "How about you? What's your opinion? Do you think we are still the same as before?" Qingyi's words meant to confound black and white and distort Ronghua's meaning. Since Shigong understood what Qingyi meant, a gloom showed in his eyes. He could refute, but as a hen-pecked husband facing with their current relationship, how dared he refute? He could only accept it obediently.
Looking at Shigong, who showed an obedient look, Ronghua could only sigh for him three times in her heart. How would they get along in the future?
Then they just sat there, neither speaking nor looking at each other. The air seemed to be frozen by the cold air they sent out. Shigong felt a bit embarrassed and looked at Ronghua, not knowing how to respond.
Ronghua was also silent because she did not know what to do, either. After that incident, Qingyi had been more and more emotionally unstable. Now Qingyi was no longer the same as she had been one hundred thousand years ago. She knew nothing about the incident, while Ronghua couldn't explain it so clearly.
Shigong looked at Ronghua for help. Noticing his staring, Ronghua just smiled, "One hundred thousand years ago, it was one of her advantages to argue a point to death!" Qingyi was a little unhappy after hearing Ronghua's words.
She turned her head, thinking, "How have I ever argued a point to death?"
However, after Ronghua returned and she felt Ronghua's breath again for the first time, she felt that Ronghua seemed a bit strange. She didn't figure out how Ronghua came here and what her purpose was. Ronghua never took action without a goal and confidence in success.
Did Ronghua know something one hundred thousand years ago?
Suddenly, Shigong noticed Qingyi's eyes looking at him, he shrank his neck guiltily, unaware of what he had done wrong.
Qingyi conveyed her question to Shigong secretly and voicelessly, "Did you tell my sister everything about us?" Shigong felt overjoyed for Qingyi's initiative to speak to him. But when he heard her words, he didn't know how to answer. He had told Ronghua their story but only part of it. Should he nod his head?
Shigong then asked Ronghua secretly and voicelessly, "What should I do?" Ronghua answered, "I don't know what to do either."
"I always listened to your sister, so I found you back."
Shigong answered Qingyi directly, throwing the problem to Ronghua.
Qingyi had felt strange while looking at them. Upon hearing this, she instantly became angry. She put the cup on the table heavily with a bang. Ronghua was shocked by her and then asked Shigong with her eyes, "What's the matter?"
Shigong answered, "I don't know."
Ronghua felt helpless, "…"
Then Qingyi continued to say, "I won’t just forget the incident happening a hundred thousand years ago. You haven’t forgotten who caused my family's death, have you?" Qingyi glanced at Shigong.
"Sister, even if you forgive him, I will not let him go so easily. Now, if it were not for Mengta, how could he sit here in such a good condition?" Ronghua was stunned. The reaction of Qingyi was a little too overwhelming. Ronghua felt that the anger in her heart might not be resolved in a short time. Qingyi was pointing at one but abusing another. "Is she blaming me?"
"It's all over. You need not bother yourself with the past!"
"It's over? It's too easy to say that. Do you really think you can cover up the truth in one sentence?"
"Why don't you let it go?"
"Sister, do you really think I am easy to persuade? Am I really so generous?" Qingyi gazed at Ronghua.
"Yes, I admit that I fell in love with him at first sight, just like a girl’s first awakening of love. Now, I thought I could forget that happy time. My power was gathered in the world-changing bow, in which my memory was retained. But I finally found it back under your guidance. If I didn't have that memory now, it wouldn’t be like this." Qingyi thought, "If I didn’t have that memory, maybe I would be a good sister and a good wife in this life."
Sometimes, the memory was not precious indeed. What was wrong with giving up all for this?
After talking, Qingyi held a teacup lightly and looked at it carefully. She drank the cup of tea and couldn't help sighing, "The tea is so bitter."
Shigong raised his head and happened to see a tear dropping from the corner of Qingyi's eyes. It streaked across her face in an instant like a meteor, and at the same time, it also streaked across his heart.
Qingyi!
Qingyi thought, "Shigong, it would be much better if I didn't remember you."
"Without falling in love with you, I would still be Qingyi, the one caring about you and being with you. I would always love you. In this life, we would spend our lives in love with each other."
"But, why did you insist on leading me to get the world-changing bow? Although I am its owner, it gathers all the hostility between heaven and earth, and you don't know how painful I was when facing the truth."
"How can I still face them as usual after knowing the truth? Won't my heart hurt?"
"That day, when I turned around, I knew I could never go back."
"After so long, the world has changed so much, but I am still me and have never changed. The night is the most terrible. But for me, is there any difference between day and night?" Qingyi thought."Sister, do you know what I truly care about?" Qingyi stared at Ronghua.Ronghua didn't look at Qingyi because she had no idea how to treat her. She just played the teacup in her hand to divert her own attention."Sister, I have known that you are beautiful and clever since childhood. Mother taught you strictly but was gentle with me. I think my character may be nourished by our mother! I am afraid it is the beginning of the tragedy."Holding the fan, Ronghua stroked and examined it carefully along its lines, "I don't know what you care. The only thing I know is that I don’t want to bother myself to find out what you care about."Hearing Ronghua’s words, Qingyi raised her head violently and retorted, "Do you think that the ho
Have you ever loved someone? Have you ever hated someone?It was easy to love a person. As long as two people offered their own heart sincerely to each other at the same time, they would feel what love was. However, it was difficult to hate someone, because when you hated him, you would wonder how to do it.Could you really assess how important he or she was in your mind clearly?A woman who did fall in love would never let that sincerity and persistence go.Ronghua stood up and looked at the sun tending to fall, "The man I met did not deserve that."There were still a lot of people on the street. When the night came, Ronghua would start to suffer again, but here seemed a little different from the Realm of Demons. At night, the lights were bright here. Even in the cold night, people still lived a happy life, while in the Realm of Demons, it would be the best time to hunt prey.Someone ran over, hit her uni
A lump of black shadows flew towards Ronghua at an extremely high speed. Ronghua was flying and suddenly turned around sharply in an amazingly quick response. A bow secretly appeared in her left hand, and she shot at the shadow without hesitation.The shadow directly swallowed the galloping arrow, and Ronghua was shocked for a second. It’s said that Weilian had been slack in cultivation these years, but apparently, it’s not true. Instead, he became even stronger. However, she didn't saw him cultivating in the Realm of Demons either.As she was thinking, Weilian had caught up and built a wall directly in front of Ronghua. It was a black smoke-liked wall. Ronghua would not consider it as true smoke because she knew this was one of Weilian's talents — the Cage. Once the prey was in it, it could never get out."Damn this man, does he take me as prey?" Ronghua thought indignantly. The Cage would not be solid in the daytime, yet it was evening now wi
Willow branches outside the window drooped. Some flew with the wind, and others remained, seeming to wait for someone. Only loneliness was staying by his side now. After so many years of waiting and searching for her, it appeared that she still kept the everlasting love, with an implication of 'I love you' buried in the memory.Standing at the entrance of the past, she couldn't enter and wouldn't leave, just wanting to ask him, “Do you trust me?” She shed tears, recalling those lies.Ironically, everlasting love came to an end. Only the inconstant love left.He asked, “Whether my love was still everlasting if I forgot my beloved?”She answered that even though lonely, she was willing to wait for the one she loved. Wherever she was, she concealed her identity just for her beloved.In the past ten thousand years, whenever he passed the street corner, snowflakes fell on his shoulders, but she was no longer there to softly
The mysterious territory, full of temptation and danger, was constructed by a strong man at death's door once upon a time. It was just what Ronghua knew from the human race. She didn't know what was in it. But the only point she knew was that this place was dangerous.The entrance of the mysterious territory was in the forest nearby the frontier city. There used to be a lot of Evil Beasts in it. It was no longer peaceful because the mysterious territory was opened. These high-level Evil Beasts rushed out from the forest to kill low-level ones. Some low-level Evil Beasts run out, fortunately, hiding in the woods to kill humans.If they managed to hunt ordinary humans, they would be fine. But if they met humans with high cultivation, they would be severely hurt or even killed. Some were lucky, just contracted with their beast nuclei remained, so they wouldn't die.The crowd entered through the entrance in the forest. They should be youngsters of
This massive flock of Evil Beasts was more serious than they thought. A sizable group of Evil Beasts of unknown level rushed out from the deep forest. Although these people were not weak in power, they did not expect to cope with the crazy Evil Beasts. For a while, they either ran to the tree or flew to the sky. But there still were those who had been overwhelmed by the cluster of Evil Beasts before they had time to respond. They all ran for their lives without any time to help others.Fortunately, the trees here were tall and durable enough for them to survive. Ronghua looked at those aristocratic men. As expected, each of them was pale and petrified. "I am afraid that such a terrible scene will not be seen on their training ground!" thought Ronghua."Don't even think about it. This is the case!" thought Ronghua. She looked up, only to see that the Evil Beasts fled fast. If there had been no major disasters, then it would have been the mysterious territory
Zhong Bancheng was a fierce assault-type spiritualist, so most of his attacks could hardly be resisted. Ronghua dodged his attack everywhere, and it became even more difficult carrying Xia Pumo.People of the imperial clan of Zither saw their companion being attacked so hardly by others. "Although he had been driven out, he also belonged to our imperial clan, and his noble identity couldn't be ignored. How could they let such a fellow lose their face?" They thought."Zhong Bancheng, you are simply too insulting." People of the imperial clan of Zither cried out. Then they all fought back. Ronghua saw that they had solved the problem for her."I could have evaded his attack, but now it is a bit troublesome carrying Xia Pumo," Ronghua thought.Now the attack from Zhong Bancheng was interrupted, so Ronghua took Xia Pumo to fly to the top of a tree."It's amazing," said Xia Pumo. If he didn't see that just now, he wouldn't
He never expected that Murong Zhe turned into a demon. A few days after he woke up, he didn't practice. He just sat on an endless day by day. He was waiting for someone.Finally, he saw him. It was the first time he had seen Murong Zhe in such a long time. Murong Zhe really had turned into a demon. Although he did not believe it, it was true. He advised Murong Zhe not to turn into a demon, but Murong Zhe said, "I like you. If you are willing to seclude from the world with me, I will give up."As a result, he left, because Murong Zhe's reason was unacceptable. After a long time, he could hear the news about Murong Zhe every day, but he was so scared of Murong Zhe.Finally, Murong Zhe's behavior provoked all imperial clans, and they killed him together. Before he died, he said to Xia Pumo with tears, "You finally come to see me." But Xia Pumo burst into tears, indulged in the painful fact that Murong Zhe would soon pass away. Xia Pumo secretly sw
