Su Lian responded softly, looking at the half-circle moon outside, which made her eyes shine brightly.
"I know it's not entirely your fault. It's just that the world's judgment is harsh, otherwise it wouldn't have caused such a tragedy."
"If both sides could take a step back, this might not be the case."
The girl's voice was very clear, like pearls falling on a plate, but Gu Yi could hear a soft tone in it.
Is she explaining, for them?
Doesn't she hate them?
Gu Yi was startled by this idea, but looking at her side face, her eyes were indeed open and unobstructed.
"You...don't hate us?"
Gu Yi thought for a moment and finally asked.
In fact, when he learned from his subordinates that Rong Chi liked a spiritual master from the Yunlan Sect, he was worried for a long time.
Even ordinary spiritual masters hate them to the core because of those rumors and their historical image, let alone the people of the Yunlan Sect.
But she said that the world's judgment is harsh.
Su Lian didn't think there was anything wrong with his words, but when she heard his question, she turned her head in surprise:
"Why should I hate you? What you mentioned are all the grudges of previous generations. I have no grudges with you. Besides, Rong Chi... saved me several times."
When talking about Rong Chi, Su Lian's voice paused inexplicably.
She admitted that her impression of the Demon Sect was good, partly because of Rong Chi, but even without him, she actually couldn't hate the Demon Sect.
There is nothing black and white in the world. She never uses rumors as the criterion for judgment, but her feelings in it.
In short, she will be good to whoever is good to her. As for that person, it is none of her business.
Gu Yi's voice trembled a little:
"Yeah...no regrets, no regrets..."
He muttered it repeatedly, burst into laughter, and tears welled up in the corners of his eyes.
"Although our Demon Sect has a bad reputation in the past, we are just a group of ordinary people who have no way to become spiritual masters. We have long stopped using those harmful cultivation methods."
"If we really want to say we are sorry, we are also sorry for the spiritual beasts in the forest. We have long been like the spiritual masters, only relying on the spiritual power of the spiritual beasts to practice. For so many years, without exception,
!”
"But... no one believes it."
Gu Yi smiled a little sadly, as if he was thinking about something.
"You are right. If we had each taken a step back, would things have been different?"
"Brother Rong will not die, and my sister-in-law will not go completely crazy after killing him to avenge her father with her own hands?"
Su Lian listened quietly to his almost uncontrollable roar and said nothing.
But when he said he didn't hurt anyone, he raised his eyebrows in surprise.
She also didn't expect that the current Demon Sect had already changed its cultivation methods, but no one seemed to believe it. Everyone still regarded it as a street rat and hated it deeply.
"If everyone thinks like you, Xiao Chi...should also have a happy family."
Gu Yi drank the pot of wine violently, and tears flowed down his face.
Seeing this, Su Lian silently took two steps back, turned around and left.
Some sorrows and pains may really require this person's drunkenness to get away from them.
Looking at her leaving figure, Gu Yi was so drunk that he smiled slightly.
"Brother Rong, have you seen that your son has found a good wife and will have a good family in the future."
"Your soul is in heaven, may you rest in peace."
…
"Master, is the gaze of the world really so important?"
"Master, master, please save me!"
Inside the room, Rong Chi frowned tightly, as if he had a nightmare.
Rong Chi reluctantly opened his eyes, and large drops of cold sweat broke out on his forehead. Recalling the dream just now, his eyes were a little dazed.
Why do you dream of a girl who looks exactly like Su Lian?
The reason why it was exactly the same instead of thinking it was Su Lian was because he saw a lot of complicated emotions in that girl.
Resentment, lingering, pain, love.
He had never seen Su Lian with these emotions before. She seemed to have been stabbed in the heart and could remain as calm as water at any time.
It seemed to be in the sky, and the palaces were extremely gorgeous. But contrary to that, in front of the palace, there was a girl who was nailed to a wooden frame one day.
Rong Chi felt a headache just thinking about it, and felt that the dream was nonsense, so he simply stopped thinking about it and fell asleep again.
But just after sleeping like this, I had a fever for several days.
Gu Yi called a doctor, but it still didn't work. They said it was nothing serious and he just needed to rest.
Su Lian took care of him for several days before he finally woke up.
"Miss Su, someone put this thing at the door, saying it was a gift for you."
Protector Zuo probably didn't expect that Rong Chi had woken up and had already opened the door. When he saw Rong Chi's searching eyes, it was already too late.
Normally, he should first check the things he wants to give to Miss Su to his master.
"Gift?"
Su Lian was stunned and took it from his hand.
The box was beautifully packaged, but Su Lian really didn't expect anyone to know that she was in this ghost place.
Rong Chi stared at her face closely, with an unclear expression.
Opening the box, I saw a crystal box lying quietly in the center.
Su Lian's heart skipped a beat, and she gently opened the box, only to see the fiery red spirit bone in the middle shining with an unusually dazzling light, which was so gorgeous that it captivated the soul.
With just one glance, Su Lian was immersed in it, his eyes looking at the crystal box in front of him for a moment, as if his mind was taken away by it.
"This is……"
She murmured, her fair face slightly rosy due to the bright light, but her eyes inadvertently revealed deep-seated stubbornness and madness, just like the moment when a poppy bloomed, it was so beautiful that it was shocking.
She finally got it, it belongs to her...
For some reason, there was a voice that kept lingering in her mind, and now it became louder and louder, sounding like a woman's scream.
Precisely because she was usually as cold as a calm lake, as if she didn't care about anyone or anything, Su Lian at this time made Rong Chi feel flustered for no reason, as if if he didn't catch her, she would disappear.
And that thing...
Rong Chi's eyes fell on the fiery red spirit bone, and his eyes wandered for a moment.
He always felt that the thing in front of him was very familiar, but there was always a feeling that frightened him.
Subconsciously, he wanted to stay away.
Rong Chi frowned.
Fusion of spiritual bones is a very dangerous thing. If this is still a spiritual bone that makes him feel like this, there are only two possibilities.
One is that it's dangerous.
The second is that its power has almost exceeded his control, even far beyond.
But no matter what it was, he was unwilling to let Su Lian have too much contact with it.
