A wave of excitement flashed across Su Mei's eyes, and then, without hesitation, he held her hand tightly, pulled her to his side, and then stood in front of her in a protective posture, with red eyes.
Staring at Ao Chenye coldly...
However, Ao Chenye's eyes were only focused on Ke'er, focusing on... her slender little hand on Su Mei's hand.
These hands were once only held by him, but now, she already has another person she trusts in her heart.
But this person is no longer him.
The heartbreaking pain in his chest continued to spread to the fine blood vessels all over his body. The painful and suffocating feeling made him feel that the internal injuries in his body were even more violent, and a fishy smell came up from his throat - "vomit!" He couldn't bear it.
He vomited a mouthful of blood.
Reflexively, he covered his painful chest and lowered his eyes slightly to hide the suppressed pain in his eyes, but his brows furrowed unconsciously.
Seeing him like this, Ke'er's eyes filled with uncontrollable anxiety, her body couldn't help but move forward slightly, and she opened her mouth to say something...
"..." However, he didn't say anything in the end, because he had already wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and was looking up at her.
She hurriedly lowered her eyelids to hide the emotion in her eyes.
As his heart retreated, his body unconsciously moved a little closer to Su Mei.
Ao Chenye took in all her subtle movements, and his black eyes flinched. Undoubtedly, her slight movements intensified the pain on his aching chest.
The pain is so unbearable, it is more painful than the bloody feeling of a sword cutting on the body...
Little cutie, I once hurt you and caused you so much pain. Now I... am being punished...
He stared at her deeply and didn't speak for a long time.
Seeing that there was no other movement from him for such a long time, Su Mei could only hold his breath and wait vigilantly. However, out of the corner of his eye, he looked at Ke'er beside him without leaving any trace.
It was obvious that she was worried when King Tenglong suffered internal injuries and vomited blood just now.
Even though King Tenglong doesn't consider her a friend, she still cares about others kindly, what a silly girl.
But, why did he vaguely feel that she was worried about King Tenglong not only because of his kindness, but also because of... something else?
Just when the three of them were silent with their own thoughts, Ao Chenye finally spoke, but he only spoke to Ke'er - "Little cutie, I know you won't believe anything I say now, but I will
Do what you want now. If you don't like me appearing in front of you, I will leave. However, I still want to tell you that I am here only for you, not for the holy bracelet, and not to kill you.
, I just want to...make sure you are safe, that's all."
His voice was slow and faint, filled with irrepressible bitterness.
Ke'er never raised her eyes to look at him, but her heart ached because of his hoarse and bitter words.
Seeing that she didn't respond to him, Ao Chenye's eyes dimmed for a moment, and he secretly took a deep breath before continuing - "Then, I'm leaving now, you... have to take good care of yourself."
After saying that, he looked at her quietly for a while, before finally having to accept the cruel fact that she refused to look at him.
Helplessly, he could only leave sadly.
Before leaving, he turned to look at Su Mei, his eyes turning sharp and warning.
——If you dare to hurt her, I will let you die without a burial place!
Su Mei's red eyes flashed coldly.
——You should say this to yourself!
Ao Chenye clenched his fists suddenly and pursed his thin lips tightly.
However, just for a moment, he loosened his fists in frustration and his shoulders slumped.
What Su Mei said is exactly what the little cutie thinks now. What qualifications does he have to refute?
Pulling the corners of his lips in a self-deprecating tone, he turned around silently, walked forward with heavy steps, and left.
As he walked away, the golden light gradually drowned his figure...
When Ke'er finally plucked up the courage to look up, what he saw was that his figure had just disappeared into the shining golden air.
Gone, he really went.
Just as he said...according to her wishes, let Sumei go and leave here...
His sentimental words that seemed to come from the bottom of his heart echoed unconsciously in his ears, as well as the figure of him leaving sadly and silently.
This scene... her heart suddenly and violently stung.
Maybe I don’t want to face this chaotic reality, maybe I’m too tired.
She felt as if her whole body was exhausted, her vision began to turn black, and for a moment, the world was spinning. She closed her eyes silently and passed out.
"Ke'er!"
Seeing her suddenly collapse, Su Mei was startled and quickly caught her and quickly brought her back to the hut.
…
Mo Palace.
Deep in the quiet and uninhabited forest, a blue-gray and desolate figure stood in the forest of dead trees with fallen leaves. Lingfeng messed up his long black hair, and the icy wind blew over, so cold that even the dead trees seemed to be shaking.
tremble.
However, such coldness did not shake the people standing upright in the slightest.
From the beginning to the end, he was so focused on casting spells on the colorful pearls floating in the air in front of him.
However, the colorful pearl that was originally peaceful in the light of his spell suddenly showed red bloodshot threads. At the same time, the light of the colorful pearl began to dim, and it was uneasy in the light of the magic power.
Seeing this, Ao Chenxiao was shocked and hurriedly withdrew his magic power and put the colorful pearl back into his palm.
"Xing'er, what's wrong with you? Why is this happening suddenly?"
His voice trembled slightly, and his eyes looked at the colorful pearls in panic. Through the transparent pearl body, he saw Xing'er lying dying inside the pearl, with a trace of blood hanging from the corner of her mouth.
Xing'er gasped weakly for several times before she managed to regain her energy.
She looked at his handsome face, which was full of anxiety. He looked pale, frightened, and extremely afraid of losing her.
Her heart clenched in pain, she took a deep breath, tried hard to gather the spiritual power of her soul, and then slowly emerged from the pearl.
Looking at the panic in his eyes with distress, she smiled weakly and reassured him: "Brother Xiao, I'm fine."
"Xing'er, don't lie to me!" Ao Chenxiao could see through her simple thoughts at a glance. It was obvious that there was something important that she was hiding from him.
Seeing that he was rarely harsh to her, Xing'er hesitated for a moment and opened her mouth several times to speak, but in the end she didn't say anything.
Seeing her hesitant and embarrassed look, Ao Chenxiao immediately knew... something must have happened to her soul, and it would be something very embarrassing for him!
"Xing'er, if you really want to do this, tell me and don't let me bear the pain of watching you leave without being able to do anything. I would rather...disappear with you!"
"No! Brother Xiao can't disappear!"
"Then tell me why you can't absorb my energy. Do you know...if you don't absorb the spiritual energy, your soul will not be able to survive!"
His voice became mute in pain, and he stretched out his hand tremblingly to her lips, trying to wipe away the bright red and dazzling blood for her, but he could only helplessly let his hand pass through her ethereal soul.
Can't touch her...
His eyes were slightly filled with tears of suffering.
