Don't be afraid, fairy, I'm blind

Chapter 382 He Shutong's Reverse Redemption

You Su was in a daze, as if he was in a vast black ocean, and he had that all-too-familiar feeling of falling.

Is this...back into the body of that black jellyfish again?
You Su was somewhat puzzled, and managed to control his body steadily while falling. Although there was deep black water all around, there were glimmering bubbles floating everywhere. Each bubble seemed to be a light curtain of a small world, and the light curtain contained a series of lifelike moving images.

You Su randomly selected a few bubbles and looked inside, but was surprised to find that the scene was completely different from the last time he fell into it - the protagonists in these images were no longer him, but people he did not recognize at all.

He checked several in succession, but was unable to find any common characters, as if each one was an independent event.

Could it be that... these images are the memories of those who were once swallowed by the black jellyfish?

You Su studied the contents of these images more carefully, frowned slightly, and finally discovered their commonality: most of the pictures showed heart-wrenching plots.

Recalling his own horrific experience of falling into the black jellyfish, You Su had no difficulty in guessing that these memory fragments were the key to causing those victims to fall into despair and be unable to extricate themselves.

As a result, they were corrupted by the black jellyfish, and their souls and flesh were turned into nutrients for this evil creature. Only these unforgettable memories were preserved and hidden by the black jellyfish in this mysterious sea of ​​consciousness like precious collections.

Now, You Su has inherited the ability of the black jellyfish, and naturally took over this sea of ​​consciousness. Therefore, he examines these memories that are eternally frozen as a ruler, and naturally he will not see the memories about him that are used to seduce him.

Just as You Su was wondering what advantages and disadvantages these unknown memories would bring to him, the familiar voice of his master's wife sounded again, bringing his thoughts back.

The Master's wife's cry was clear and ethereal, like the sound of nature, penetrating through the layers of water and reaching the depths of his soul. You Su's heart was throbbing, this voice was both real and unreal, and he couldn't help but follow the guidance of the voice and swim hard.

As the distance got closer, the sound became clearer. You Su casually pushed aside a huge psychedelic bubble, but the scene behind the bubble made him lose consciousness instantly, and he was so shocked that he could hardly breathe.

Master's wife, the figure he had been thinking about day and night and dreaming about, appeared before his eyes in a real way.

She was wearing a simple and elegant long dress, the hem of which swayed gently, like a fairy. Her face was still beautiful and extraordinary, like a newly blossoming white lotus, fresh and unworldly, untainted by dust. Her eyes were like the deep starry sky, and like a clear spring. Just one glance was enough to last for a thousand years. However, there seemed to be a hint of fatigue and sadness in the corners of her eyes, which made people feel pity.

The Master's Wife seemed to be completely unaware of his arrival. She was just concentrating on looking at the light curtain floating in front of her. What was being played on the light curtain was the scene where he had insisted on taking the Master's Wife away outside her empty room when the Yuanyang Sword Sect was surrounded by Sect Master Qi and others.

You Su quickly swam to the side of his master's wife, and for a moment he was so nervous that he didn't know what to say or do. Although he could see her occasionally, the only time he really saw her true face was when she first enlightened him. Since then, that beautiful figure has been buried deep in his heart, giving him a complex emotion that was different from that of an ordinary master and apprentice.

But after meeting again after such a long separation, You Su felt more guilty than anything else.

After a long time, he finally mustered up the courage to call out to his master's wife, but his cries seemed to be blocked by an invisible barrier, and his master's wife turned a deaf ear to him.

It was then that You Su noticed that there was also a bubble wrapped around the master's wife's body!
This bubble separates him and her, as if they were two different worlds.

You Su first apologized and then gently touched his master's wife's shoulder. As he expected, his hand passed through his master's wife's body.

This is the sea of ​​consciousness, there is no entity at all. You Su speculated that this layer of bubbles should be a barrier between his consciousness and that of his master's wife.

So just like those bubbles, he can rely on his identity as the Lord of the Sea of ​​Consciousness to eavesdrop on the sounds inside, but his voice cannot be transmitted inside.

But why is the master's wife here?
And she was so special, a separate bubble carrying a person, not a memory…

You Su was puzzled and even began to doubt whether he had fallen into some deeper illusion and whether his master's wife was a deeper delusion.

But the mark of the black jellyfish on the gold paper formed by the golden hydra was clear and evident to him that he was the master of this dark sea of ​​consciousness.

"Su'er..."

The master's wife called out again. You Su reacted instantly, but found that the master's wife was not calling him at all, but was calling "himself" who kept knocking on the door in the light curtain...

Not only this sentence, but every "Su'er" heard before was calling the "self" in the painting!
You have to know that in real life, the Master's Wife had only called him "Su'er" a few times, as if she found it difficult to say such an intimate name, so every time he did so, You Su would be secretly happy for a long time.

When You Su saw his master's wife with a look of affection and infatuation in her eyes, he realized that her feelings for him were so deep. It was not that she did not want to be closer to him, but she was used to being reserved.

Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed through You Su's mind!

He thought of an astonishing possibility!

That is, Master's Wife actually didn't wake up from the black jellyfish's bewitching power at all! So she was still able to enter this sea of ​​consciousness! This image in the light curtain was the key that the black jellyfish used to bewitch Master's Wife's will!
This is impossible...

This black jellyfish, apart from being a bit magical, was not even a match for him in a head-on battle. Given Master's wife's strength, it was even more impossible for her to fail to discover that her mental disorder had not been resolved.

Moreover, with Master's wife's strength, since she was able to escape from this black jellyfish, she should be able to easily cut off the psychological barrier that the evil demon has planted for her.

Then why did the master's wife keep the psychological barrier left by this evil demon... Isn't this planting a hidden danger for herself?

The more You Su thought about it, the more surprised he became, because there was only one answer to this question -

It's not that Master's Wife can't cut it off, but that she doesn't want to!
This picture is her salvation, but it will also become a stronger shackle for her. She can easily take off this shackle, and from then on she will not suffer from the pain of cold heart and will not be burdened by mental obstacles, but she chose not to do so...

Was it out of guilt, or to make up for it, or because of reluctance, or maybe it was some other reason...

You Su had no idea about this, he just thought his master's wife was so stupid.

You Su stared at He Shutong's flawless profile, and the seed of eagerness buried in the soil in his heart finally emerged.

But at the same time that You Su's eyes became firm, He Shutong's eyes in the bubble also began to become firm, as if he had made some decision.

You Su was then surprised to find that the bubble where his master's wife was was slowly merging with the bubbles on the light curtain in front of him, as if his master's wife was about to enter the world of memories in front of her!
You Su was extremely surprised. He saw his master's wife's figure gradually shrinking and then starting to float.

"Master Wife...where have you been? Come with me!"

In the picture, You Su was leaning against the doorpost somewhat discouraged, still making his last struggle. At that time, the young You Su could not believe that his master's wife had really abandoned him.

You Su looked at himself at that time and felt awkward for some reason. Although only a year had passed, he had undoubtedly matured a lot and understood a lot more. If he faced the same situation again, he would definitely not show that timid attitude again.

At this time, the master's wife who was floating in the image finally landed on the ground. She landed in the back mountain of the Mandarin Duck Sword Sect. The thick fog blocked her figure, and the back window of her room was open.

"You Su, don't you understand? She lied to you! The gray stone on the table can confuse Xuan Qi's detection! The white jade is a sound transmission order! The dust in this room is enough to prove that she left long ago!"

Qi Daodong at the door ruthlessly punctured the illusion that You Su was clinging to, and the cold reality almost made the young man at the door collapse.

Now that You Su thinks back, the reason why he felt so devastated at the time was not because he had been deliberately fighting against everything since Master Ling, but in the end he found out that what he was protecting was an illusion?

Wait! Master's wife, what are you doing...

You Su instantly realized what He Shutong wanted to do!
She just had to climb over the low wall in front of her and return to her room through the back window!

She wanted to save the boy who was begging her to leave with him in front of the door!
She wanted to let the boy know that she did not lie to him!
……

Qi Daodong glared at the young man in front of him hatefully, his eyes seemed to have flames burning. He secretly brewed the mysterious Qi, and his fingertips moved slightly, intending to give the stubborn young man a fatal blow.

However, at this critical moment, Wu Cheng, who was held tightly in You Su's hand, suddenly let out a shrill scream. The sound was sharp and abrupt, echoing in the fog.

Wu Cheng screamed as he looked at You Su who was still on the verge of collapse, feeling extremely anxious. He originally wanted to remind You Su to use him as a hostage to escape, but he never thought that You Su was so deeply trapped that he could not be awakened at all, and instead woke up Qi Daodong who was ready to go.

Qi Daodong's heart was shocked. He thought to himself that something was wrong. While You Su was still not in a state of consciousness, two iron chains made of mysterious energy flew out from his sleeves. One chain tied up You Su's hands, and the other chain tied up Wu Cheng's body and quickly pulled him to the side.

"You've fallen to such a low point for a mistress who abandoned you long ago. You're truly filial!"

Qi Daodong rescued Wu Cheng while making sarcastic remarks.

He turned to help Wu Cheng up, and patted his shoulder with lingering fear:

"Fortunately, you are smart, otherwise I would be very cautious."

Wu Cheng's face turned pale, but he still forced a bitter smile, and then said seriously:
"Thank you for saving my life, Master. You Su just attacked me and trapped me. I am not convinced. Master, please give me another chance. I will kill this evil with my own hands!"

Qi Daodong just smiled, but his tone was unquestionable: "Cheng'er, you are serious. You have lofty ambitions. Why do you need to compete with a monster who is in league with evil spirits? You can go to the side and have a rest. I will do the dirty work!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Qi Daodong flew up at lightning speed, with green thunder and electric pythons running in his palms.

By the time Wu Cheng reacted it was too late and he couldn't stop it.

It was not until the hostages were rescued that You Su came to his senses belatedly.

The first thing he did after coming to his senses was not to look for the hostages, but to stare blankly at the sky obscured by the fog, as if he wanted to see something beyond the sky.

At this time, he was at the end of his strength, his Xuan Qi was exhausted, and he had no hostages to threaten him. Facing Qi Daodong who was determined to get him, he was like a lamb to be slaughtered.

You Su seemed to have accepted his fate. He did not resist at all. He just slowly closed his eyes and said weakly:
"Master's wife... I'm sorry..."

Wu Chengmo frowned deeply, clenched his teeth, and sighed that there would soon be one less person in this world whom he could consider a friend... He only regretted that he did not know how to make friends and had brought too much trouble to the young man.

The green thunder has arrived, and the electric python is surging!
However, at this critical moment of life and death, an extremely elegant immortal sword suddenly pierced through the window, bringing with it a sharp sword wind, pulling You Su back from the brink of death!
The immortal sword sounded as clear as a dragon's roar. As the sword light flashed, it cut the surrounding green lightning into pieces.

You Su suddenly opened his eyes, only to see the door being gently pushed open and a familiar figure slowly walking out. That person had a graceful figure and a fluttering white dress. It was the mistress he had been thinking about day and night.

He Shutong!
"Master's wife!"

You Su exclaimed, his eyes full of disbelief.

The corners of He Shutong's mouth slightly lifted up, outlining a perfect arc. That smile was filled with endless warmth and tenderness, like sunlight penetrating through the clouds, instantly illuminating every corner of You Su's heart:
"I am always here."

Qi Daodong and the others' faces changed drastically when they saw this. The sword light was so strong that it even cut the fog covering the sky into thinner pieces.

They never imagined that this woman who had lived in seclusion for a long time could have such powerful strength.

They looked at each other, fear flashing in their eyes, but they did not dare to act rashly.

"Who is your Excellency?!"

Qi Daodong struggled to get up from the ruins. His momentum was much weaker. It didn't seem like he wanted to capture the fairy as well. Instead, it seemed like he wanted to die knowingly.

"Is that what you just said, that I deceived him?"

He Shutong spoke in a dangerous tone, and controlled the sword with his empty hands. The sword spun lightly in the air, and waves of light were like a constant source of pressure, making it hard for everyone present to breathe.

Qi Daodong looked at this holy, majestic and elegant swordsman, as if he saw a bright moon in the mist, and his forced persistence was shattered.

He gritted his teeth and said, "You go first!"

"No one can leave."

He Shutong coldly pronounced the verdict on these people, and the magic sword seemed to be hanging over everyone's head.

And at this moment, a scene that no one expected appeared.

"Master's wife... I miss you so much!"

You Su tightly embraced He Shutong's slender waist, and his legs were wrapped around her body, and his head was buried in the plump collar of the gorgeous fairy like a spoiled child.

He was like a child who had suffered a great injustice and finally found someone to rely on. His pitiful appearance shattered the solemn atmosphere created by He Shutong.
