On the edge of the grassland under the snow-capped mountains, Nalan Xue's big crystal eyes kept blinking, looking curiously at Ling Yun who was standing there motionless. She was wondering why Ling Yun didn't go with her.
Looking at the familiar face in front of him, Ling Yun felt waves in his heart again. Surprise, bitterness, and confusion all flashed through his eyes one after another.
Looking at Ling Yun who was standing there, being pulled by Nalan Xue, Ouyang Ruolan felt more and more that the man in the cloak in front of him was so familiar, and couldn't help but stare at Ling Yun, hoping to find some clues about him to guess.
his identity.
Nalanfeng, who was beside him, saw the two of them looking at each other, and suddenly felt helpless in his heart. He couldn't help but think of what Ouyang Ruolan's father, Ouyang Hua, said to him in private...
Just after Lingyun reached an agreement with the five major families, Ouyang Hua hurried to Huada and quietly asked Nalan Feng out.
After the meeting, Ouyang Hua solemnly asked Nalanfeng, hoping that she could keep Ling Yun's identity secret from Ouyang Ruolan for the time being. As for Ling Yun's identity, Ouyang Hua would find an opportunity to tell Ouyang Ruolan at the appropriate time.
Upon hearing Ouyang Hua's request, the smart Nalanfeng quickly understood Ouyang Hua's original intention and readily agreed.
It was at this time that Nalanfeng understood something.
It turns out that after Nalanbo received the secret letter from the family, Nalanfeng, as the most outstanding among the younger generation, naturally knew the content of the secret letter. I remember that when he first learned about Lingyun’s identity in the game, Nalanfeng also ate it.
Surprisingly, who would have thought that this usually taciturn Ling Yun would turn out to be a popular character in the game.
At that time, Nalanfeng also thought of Ouyang Ruolan's reaction when he learned about this incident. The biggest obstacle between Ouyang Ruolan and Ling Yun was the huge gap in their life experiences.
As a child of an aristocratic family, it is very difficult to break through such a huge obstacle. Once Ouyang Ruolan knows about Ling Yun, God knows what Ouyang Ruolan, who is in the beginning of his love life and is so naive and almost idiotic about the world, will do.
What's up.
With Ling Yun's actions in the game, it is true that he can easily step into the circle of the upper class, so the gap between the two people will be reduced a lot. If Ling Yun develops better, it may be possible to stand out in a certain aspect.
When the five major aristocratic families are in a parallel position, then it is possible for Ouyang Ruolan and Ling Yun to be together.
If Nalanfeng hadn't seen the family's secret letter, after she found out about Ling Yun, she would have secretly blessed the two of them. After all, in a family as deep as the sea, a person rarely has his or her own say in the relationship.
Sometimes, it is even more rare to meet someone you like and get support from your family.
But after seeing the secret letter, Nalanfeng no longer had any hope for the two of them, because through this secret letter, Nalanfeng saw many things, that is, the family was bound to win over Ling Yun. Once Ling Yun
Belonging to a family, while gaining great honor, also loses one's equal status.
As long as Ling Yun steps into the family door, at that moment, his body will be marked with the invisible family mark. No matter where he goes, he will be enveloped by the halo that symbolizes the family's honor.
Although in the eyes of outsiders, joining a certain aristocratic family is a happy event that dazzles one's family, and those who join the family are shrouded in an extremely enviable halo in the eyes of outsiders, but this dazzling halo has another explanation in the eyes of the children of these aristocratic families -
—Servant!
Indeed, no matter how good you are, at least when you are free, the children of those aristocratic families may still look up to you, but once you join a family, you are no longer on an equal footing with them, but two.
The relationship between the two will become similar to that between master and servant in ancient times, so those who join the aristocratic family will no longer be looked down upon by the children of the aristocratic family, and will even face the disdain and ridicule of those children of the aristocratic family.
This is also the reason why Nalanfeng is no longer optimistic about Lingyun. Nalanfeng, who is afraid that Ouyang Ruolan will not know the reason, still wants to have a good chat with her, but when she sees Ouyang Ruolan, she finds that the latter does not
No matter how carefully Nalanfeng observed any changes, he could not find anything out of the ordinary.
It wasn't until Ouyang Hua asked her for a request that Nalanfeng, who had been confused for a long time, realized that Ouyang Ruolan had never known about Ling Yun. It seemed that Ouyang Hua was also afraid that his silly daughter would do something stupid, so he didn't
Tell her about Ling Yun.
Looking at the suspected "little bone" player in front of her again, Nalanfeng felt powerless in her heart. She could only pray secretly, hoping that this player was just a member of the vast team of bone fans. If God really insists on killing two people,
Together, Nalanfeng is really powerless. Now she can only do her best and obey fate.
Seeing that she couldn't pull Ling Yun, Nalan Xue had no choice but to pout her mouth, snort, and then turned her head. She saw Ouyang Ruolan's frowning expression on her face, her eyes couldn't help but turn, and she turned her head towards Ling Yun, lightly speaking.
Pulling his cloak gently, he said softly: "Brother, come on, why are you standing there? Could it be...Sister Lanlan! Look, my sister's beauty has fascinated my brother? Hehe~"
While pulling Ling Yun, Nalan Xue didn't forget to look back at Ouyang Ruolan, teasing her for keeping an eye on Ling Yun.
Hearing Nalan Xue's words, Ouyang Ruolan, who had been staring at Ling Yun because he felt that Ling Yun in the cloak looked familiar, blushed on his face and quickly looked away as if there was a ghost in his heart.
Noticing the change in Ouyang Ruolan's expression, Ling Yun's heart aroused ripples again, but the face that had just smiled with joy suddenly became stiff.
The moment he saw Ouyang Ruolan, Ling Yun focused all his attention on Ouyang Ruolan, and all the memories related to Ouyang Ruolan came to his mind.
The first encounter on the school bus welcoming new students, the first close contact on campus, the conflict with Ouyang Zhendong in the cafeteria, and meeting the pair of Ouyang Ruolan and Situ Yun in the bustling market, these are unforgettable
Memories kept reappearing in Ling Yun's mind.
Thinking of all the misfortunes he had encountered, most of which were related to her, Ling Yun already had mixed feelings in his heart, bitter, sour, sweet...
Hate? Can't say, like? A little bit. Regarding Ouyang Ruolan's feelings, Ling Yun once decided to face up to its existence. Now that he sees Ouyang Ruolan again, Ling Yun has long forgotten that this is a game, especially when he sees Ouyang Ruolan.
Ruolan's shyness because of Nalanxue's words made Lingyun even more happy.
Unfortunately, the joy did not last long, and a bad premonition suddenly appeared in Ling Yun's heart.
No! This is a game!
Thinking of this, Ling Yunruo fell into a thousand-year ice cave, because at this time he realized that this was in a game, and even ordinary familiar people might not be able to recognize him if they didn't look carefully, let alone himself.
He is still wearing a cloak.
Then it is impossible for Ouyang Ruolan to know who she is, but Ouyang Ruolan actually showed such an expression. Could it be that...does she already have someone she likes in her heart? And her clothes reminded her of that person?
Thinking of this possibility, Ling Yun felt an unreasonable pain in his heart, and a deep sadness hit his heart again.
However, Ling Yun finally remembered Ouyang Ruolan's identity. Thinking of the agreement he had made with the five major aristocratic families, Ling Yun thought of another possibility. Since the five major aristocratic families already knew his identity, would Ouyang Ruolan already know this?
thing?
I think my attire should have been known to those aristocratic families for a long time. Maybe Ouyang Ruolan guessed her true identity through her attire?
Ling Yun felt better when he thought of this possibility. He took a deep breath and readjusted his emotions. Only then did he realize that Nalan Xue, who was holding his hand, had a little pout, as if he was impatient to wait. In this regard,
Ling Yun couldn't help but smile, and reached out his hand to gently touch Nalan Xue's head to express comfort.
Nalan Xue did not resist Ling Yun's touch and seemed to enjoy it. The previous resentment immediately disappeared.
Seeing the two people's intimate movements, Nalanfeng's eyes widened and she looked at the two of them in disbelief. She couldn't help but open her mouth slightly and wanted to say something. Unfortunately, Nalanfeng didn't say anything in the end.
Ouyang Ruolan who was standing next to him put away his surprised look before he realized it, but looked at Ling Yun with an indescribable weirdness in his eyes.
Ouyang Ruolan didn't have any reaction to Ling Yun's move, but Ling Yun's action reminded her of a person who often touched her head like this when she was a child. When she thought of that person, Ouyang Ruolan had something more in her eyes.
Very warm feeling.
The change in the expression in Ouyang Ruolan's eyes did not escape the eyes of Ling Yun, who was always paying attention to her. This change in Ouyang Ruolan made Ling Yun more eager to verify his previous idea.
If you want to know whether your idea is right or not, as long as you know whether Ouyang Ruolan knows his true identity now, everything will become clear. No matter what conclusion you get, you must face it instead of escaping.
Then Ling Yun's eyes revealed a determined light, and he took Nalan Xue's hand and walked towards Ouyang Ruolan and Nalan Feng.
At the same time, in a simple and majestic broad hall, there were metal skeleton soldiers guarding everywhere. Occasionally, patrol teams would pass by, and the leading skeleton was no longer metal in color, but jade-like emerald green.
.
Just as the patrol passed through the passage outside the hall, they heard footsteps coming from the depths of the dark passage.
Suddenly, all the guards raised their weapons, lined up fearlessly, and stared at the source of the sound.
Not long after, a figure wearing a purple gold-rimmed cloak gradually became clear.
When the guards who were originally on high alert saw the owner of the footsteps, they immediately put away their weapons, made way for them, knelt on one knee on both sides, and lowered their skulls deeply.
The man wearing a purple gold-rimmed cloak ignored these guards and walked silently towards the depths of the hall.
It wasn't until he came under a gorgeous throne high above that the man in the purple and gold cloak slowly stopped and looked at the empty throne without saying a word for a long time.
At this time, a group of skeletons hurriedly walked in the distance, led by a purple skeleton that was the same as Xiao Zi, but it had red light in its eyes.
When the purple skeleton walked behind the man in the purple and gold-rimmed cloak, he knelt down on one knee and knelt down towards the man in the purple and gold-rimmed cloak. The golden and silver skeletons behind it also knelt down one after another, and then said in unison: "Your Highness!"
Hearing the shouts from behind, the man in the cloak suddenly exuded a chilling chill. He slowly turned around and asked in a deep voice.
"Where did he go?"
Feeling the cold aura, except for the purple skeleton at the head, the other skeletons looked terrified.
"Back to Your Highness, the master has received the summons and has left!" the purple skeleton replied.
"Hmph! When will he come back?"
"Go back to Your Highness, I don't know."
"Hmph!" After saying that, the figure in the purple cloak regained his momentum and walked out.
When passing by the purple skeleton, he suddenly stopped and asked: "His 'last test' is you, isn't it?"
Upon hearing this, the purple skull said solemnly: "Yes, Your Highness!"
After taking a deep look at the purple skull, the man in a purple gold-rimmed cloak sneered and walked slowly outside.
After the figure left the hall, the purple skeleton stood up, looked back at the passage outside the hall, and showed an arrogant expression of disdain, without even a hint of humility.
"Do you really think that legend can come true? What a fool! Instead of fighting for the right to inherit the bloodline, you have to naively challenge that legend. I want to see if you can finally step onto that sacred altar.
Or will they forever become puppets driven by others like us!"
The purple skeleton, muttering softly to himself, looked at the figure who had already left, and suddenly showed a very strange smile.
