Five words, a seemingly simple question, but it has a different meaning in Li Zimu's eyes.
As Wei Changtian said, Li Zimu knew very well that Chu Xianping's attitude towards this matter would directly represent his friendship with him.
And since Chu Xianping asked this, it was clear that he did not want to exclude her.
In other words, Chu Xianping didn't care about his own safety.
At least compared to what he is doing now, he is not the most important.
"..."
The struggle and guilt in his eyes slowly receded, replaced by a trace of self-mockery.
It turns out that it was all wishful thinking...
Putting down the rice paper in his hand, Li Zimu's expression turned cold at this time.
No matter what the conflict was between Wei Changtian and Chu Xianping, no matter whether the latter was true or false, her friendship for Chu Xianping disappeared at this moment.
This may sound a bit incredible.
After all, she was still in love to death before, so the speed of change was a little too fast.
But for people like Li Zimu, feelings often come and go in an instant.
What's more, since she had just chosen to side with Wei Changtian, it would be impossible for her to cultivate with Chu Xianping in the future no matter what.
In this case, it is better to cut it off as early as possible.
Anyway, Tang Chen has been deceived, so what if he deceives another Chu Xianping?
There is a saying that although Li Zimu is not deeply involved in the world, her way of dealing with everything can be said to be very rational, even cold-blooded.
This is true even for emotional matters, which are the easiest things for people to make wrong judgments.
Previously, she could "sell her appearance" and deceive Tang Chen for the benefit of Wei Changtian.
Now she can break up with Chu Xianping for the sake of Wei Changtian.
Thinking about it this way, what Li Zimu said to Tang Chen, "I can do anything for Mr. Wei," was really not an exaggeration.
At the very least, she is indeed loyal enough to Wei Changtian.
As for why this is...
Li Zimu will always remember this scene.
It was in the Zhongling County Government Office, in a gatehouse that was like purgatory.
Grinning smiles, instruments of torture, blood, animal desires...
It was as if all the evil in the world had gathered in that small room, torturing her and ravaging her, making her fearful, desperate, and numb to this ugly world.
Then, a man appeared.
Li Zimu will never forget the black robe covering his body in this life, and he will never forget the sentence "Even if you die, it is best to do something meaningful."
From that moment on, Li Zimu found the "meaning" of living.
That is, don’t let Mr. Wei down.
That's why she will do everything Wei Changtian asks her to do at all costs.
Li Zimu never regretted or wavered.
Because she knew only too well that the person who appeared in front of her that day with a long knife and pulled her up from the bottom of the abyss was not Chu Xianping, not Tang Chen, or anyone else.
That person is just Wei Changtian.
"..."
The candle flickered, and a moth trembled with trembling wings, slowly approaching the flame weakly but firmly.
Li Zimu suddenly stretched out his hand to protect the moth in his palm, then picked up the Zimu Jade again, and sent two words to Chu Xianping with cold eyes.
【I believe】
...
...
Three days later.
Lingzhou, Huailing City.
Although Huailing Prefecture was renamed Lingzhou after being classified as Daning territory, the name of Huailing City remained unchanged.
For the people in the city, there is actually no difference between "Huailing Mansion" and "Lingzhou".
Except for the change in the color of the clothes of the defenders in the city, they did not feel any difference in their lives.
Because of this, the people in Huailing have become very unclear about their own "country".
Dafeng people? Daning people?
Compared with the above two identities, they are now more accustomed to calling themselves "Huailing people".
And this exactly reflects the disappointment and escape of ordinary people towards the concept of "home and country" after the country's demise.
Is there another war in the west?
Hit it.
Are there another army coming from the east?
Come on.
Since the former Dafeng is only a palace donated by Wei Changtian, does it matter who the Huailing belongs to?
It's not important anymore.
Therefore, when the Shu troops in green armor began to enter the city one after another this afternoon, most of the people did not even bother to take a look.
But just because they don't care doesn't mean that everyone doesn't care.
For example, the envoys returning to the two countries who had been waiting in the city for a long time rushed to the city gate and waited patiently for Wei Changtian's arrival.
As for where the latter is today…
Three hundred miles east of Huailing City, a solitary carriage galloped along the official road, followed by the endless stretch of the Western Desert and Gobi.
It was obvious that Wei Changtian and Yang Liushi did not follow the army this time.
Because they just went to kill a big demon again.
According to the information provided by the Xuanjing Division, there was a scorpion demon with profound knowledge hidden deep in the Gobi Desert of the Western Desert, so Wei Changtian took a detour.
Of course, under normal circumstances, finding this scorpion would undoubtedly be like looking for a needle in a haystack.
However, with the ability of the Solar Eclipse Bead to attract big demons, all this becomes a lot easier.
After arriving at the approximate location, Yang Liushi took out the solar eclipse bead, and the big scorpion rushed over and killed him.
After killing the scorpion demon, the Taoist practice stored in the solar eclipse bead also changed from 500 years to 800 years.
Eight hundred years.
This means that if Yang Liushi takes the Eclipse Bead now, she will immediately have the strength of the peak of the third level, almost the second level.
It jumped directly from the sixth grade to the third grade... It can only be said that it is a prop worth 3000 points.
It's so perverted.
"Okay, put it away."
Sitting in the speeding carriage, Wei Changtian glanced at Yangliu Shi, who was holding the solar eclipse bead and looking at it carefully, and said with a smile: "It's just such a bead, I don't know what you are looking at every day."
"Isn't it okay if the slave family likes it?"
Yangliu Shijiao said angrily and put the Solar Eclipse Pearl back into the small box made of Immortal Lock Stone.
"But Young Master, I do feel that this solar eclipse bead is becoming more and more attractive to my family."
"Is it?"
Upon hearing this, Wei Changtian immediately became interested: "How strong is he?"
"Hmm... I just always want to eat it."
Yang Liushi blushed, as if this description seemed silly.
And Wei Changtian was really amused and said with great joy:
"Hahaha, then I can't keep the Solar Eclipse Beads at your place from now on. What if one day you can't help but eat them?"
"Sir, didn't you say that these beads were originally for the slave family to eat?"
Yang Liushi was not annoyed at being laughed at, but pretended to be disdainful and shouted: "What? Do you think the young master wants to regret it?"
"Repent?"
Wei Changtian smiled and joked: "If you are willing, you can eat it now, and I will never stop you."
"Humph, I can't bear to let you go..."
Yang Liushi murmured in a low voice and patted the stone box in her hand: "Besides, as long as you put it in the Immortal Locking Stone, you won't want to eat it."
"Then you have to be careful and don't take it out easily..."
Wei Changtian nodded with a smile, and was about to laugh at Yang Liushi's current appearance again.
But the next moment, Zhang San's voice suddenly came in from outside the car curtain.
"Sir! General Liang just sent a message saying that the envoys from Qian and the two countries are already waiting outside Huailing City!"
"oh."
Wei Changtian responded and asked casually: "How many are here?"
"There are six people in total!"
"Okay, tell Uncle Liang to kill three first."
"Yes...ah, ah??"
"Ah, what, just do as you do."
"Yes...no, sir, which three should we kill?"
"I don't know these six people. Which three do you want to kill?"
