Embers of Sword

Chapter 422 Confession
Jiang Miaoyin plucked up the courage and said what was weighing on her mind.

Finally I feel relieved.

But the next moment, Jiang Miaoyin felt some regret in her heart again.

The words that are spoken, the water that is poured out.

"call……"

Jiang Miaoyin exhaled heavily, picked up the veil and put it on in a panic, not wanting the person opposite to see her expression.

The wind and snow blow gently, ruffling my clothes.

Silence fell between the two again, but it didn't last long.

Xie Xuanyi took off the flying sword that was hanging high above his head and placed it in front of his knees. The golden-shirted martial arts fetus also retracted, and his entire aura became completely calm.

The sword energy dissipates, and the Dharma image dissipates.

Xie Xuanyi faced the woman in front of him in his most primitive appearance.

"I know."

Xie Xuanyi looked directly into Jiang Miaoyin's eyes under the veil. Although covered by the veil, he knew that Jiang Miaoyin was looking at him at this moment.

He said word by word: "Junior sister likes me. I have always known it."

Xie Xuanyi lowered his eyebrows and said slowly: "Xuanyi lost his parents at a young age and was left alone. Thanks to the love of my master, I was able to join the Lotus Peak and have the opportunity to practice. When I was young and naughty, I often quarreled with my friends. It was because of the tolerance and forbearance of the brothers and sisters from other peaks, the elders and guests that I was able to achieve such a glorious life later..."

"Master told me that all the senior brothers in Zhufeng like me very much."

"..."

Jiang Miaoyin's body trembled slightly.

She wanted to explain.

But this time, it was Xie Xuanyi's turn to interrupt her.

"But I know. Junior Sister's 'like' is different from theirs."

Xie Xuanyi sat upright and said slowly, "Back then, I practiced sword all night long at Lotus Peak. When the elders from other peaks saw me, they would praise me for my hard work. When the eldest brother saw me, he would remind me to take care of my health."

"Only Junior Sister, who protects me, keeps watch, lights the lamp, cooks wine, and stays awake all night."

There was a slight pause.

Xie Xuanyi smiled and continued, "During the years when I was competing for the top spot in swordsmanship, every time I went down the mountain... the elders, brothers and sisters would ask me where I was going to travel and which Saint Son I was going to compete with."

"Only you, Junior Sister... didn't ask anything, but just asked me to take the amulet I wove with me into the cave."

There were too many things like this in my first life. Just thinking back on them, they all came flooding back to my mind.

There is so much to say and so much to describe.

But it is still vivid in my mind and my memory is still fresh.

Xie Xuanyi's expression was gentle: "Humans are not plants or trees, who can be heartless? I have seen everything that Junior Sister has done over the years."

"..."

The woman sitting opposite gently covered her lips, but couldn't control her trembling body.

A teardrop slid down from the soap gauze.

Falling into the snow, making a crisp sound.

"I'm not blind or deaf. I know what people are saying outside."

Xie Xuanyi took a deep breath and said self-deprecatingly: "In fact, I didn't respond these years, not because I was 'timid', nor because I was 'afraid', but because there are some truths that I didn't think clearly and understood until I died in battle in my previous life."

Jiang Miaoyin stared at the young man in front of her.

"Of course I like Junior Sister, too."

Xie Xuanyi looked at the flying sword on his knees and murmured softly, "If I didn't like it, I wouldn't have accepted it when Master gave it to me."

Serious illness, chronic disease.

These two flying swords form a pair.

When Xie Xuanyi was practicing at Lotus Peak, Jiang Miaoyin was the only one who accompanied him in the entire temple.

Jiang Miaoyin wasn't the only one willing to come...

Xie Xuanyi is a man of extraordinary talent, rarely seen in a thousand years. There are countless disciples from various peaks who want to watch him.

There were even noble families outside the Sword Palace who came here to see the palace.

only.

All these people were stopped outside the mountain gate by Xie Xuanyi.

If he doesn't want to see it, who is qualified to come?
Later, Xie Xuanyi became the most dazzling sword genius of the younger generation of Dasui Sword Palace, and visitors came one after another. Countless precious treasures were piled up in the lobby of Zhenyin Peak, but Xie Xuanyi did not even look at them, nor did he take any of them, and returned them all. When he went down the mountain to travel, in addition to the [Serious Disease], the only thing he wore was the amulet given by Jiang Miaoyin.

Xie Xuanyi laughed softly and said, "Xuanyi has seen everything Junior Sister has done for Xuanyi."

"It's just... in my last life, I never understood."

"My love for Junior Sister and Junior Sister's love for me are the same thing."

Sword cultivation requires clarity of thoughts and a clear mind.

In his previous life, Xie Xuanyi was busy traveling around the four realms to learn about swords, busy becoming the leader in swordsmanship, and busy reviving the fortune of the lotus.

Finally, he figured out the most difficult sword art of destruction in the world.

But they cannot understand the simplest truth that ordinary people can understand.

He couldn't figure out his own heart.

In the wind and snow, the two people sitting together fell into silence again.

Jiang Miaoyin reached out and wiped her cheek, then laughed hoarsely, "...Brother, you don't have to tell me this."

I was able to hear Xie Xuanyi's answer.

She was already content.

This pair of senior and junior brothers and sisters went through the most innocent years together.

Some things don't need to be said, the answer is already in your heart.

When she was on guard at the Lotus Temple, she fell into a deep sleep. After waking up, she always found a black shirt covering her shoulders.

She kept vigil for Xie Xuanyi.

Xie Xuanyi added clothes for her.

"sorry."

Xie Xuanyi said softly: "I owed you an answer in my last life, so...I came to see you this time, even if you don't ask in the end, I will tell you."

If a person dies once.

Then most of the problems lingering deep in your heart will be solved.

"... Senior Brother?"

Jiang Miaoyin's heart skipped a beat, and she had an uneasy feeling.

She clutched her sleeves silently.

Xie Xuanyi looked directly into the woman's eyes and said sincerely, "Master once told me that in this life, I should walk slower and see more scenery... But I don't quite understand what he meant. If possible, I still want to walk faster. I don't want the tragedy of ten years ago to happen again. I want everyone on Lotus Peak to be safe. Especially you."

The Beihai of ten years ago was not the end.

He successfully lived a second life.

Sooner or later, the news that Xie Xuanyi is still alive will spread to the imperial city and reach the ears of the Empress Dowager.

This time, Dasui Sword Palace can no longer use the excuse of "closing the mountain" to evade liquidation.

"So... I'm sorry."

Xie Xuanyi took a deep breath and spoke again sincerely: "Junior sister, Xuanyi only wants to put the Dao first now."

next moment.

The bonfire flickered, and the thunder and fire talisman trembled slightly.

Xie Xuanyi stood up suddenly, and the golden divine fetus suddenly appeared, holding his natal flying sword of the dual realm of life and death, and without any warning, he chopped at the snow behind Jiang Miaoyin!

boom!
The huge snow mountain was split in half by this sword!
Behind the snow-capped mountains, several miles away, a thin figure was grazed by the sword energy and his body was almost shattered.

The snow goblin appeared in panic, with a terrified look and a hoarse voice: "Mr. Xie, are you crazy? What's wrong with listening to a few words? Did I provoke you?"

"Did I say..."

Xie Xuanyi stared at the shattering snow in the distance with an expressionless face, "If you provoke me again, I will beat you to death?"

Xue Xiao's eyes widened, and he quickly shouted to explain: "I didn't hear a word!"

God is my witness——

It just wanted to see what these two dogs were saying in front of the sword monument!
As soon as he got close, he was hit by a sword!
Damn it! How come after this Xie fell in realm, his sword intent became even more fierce? !
"roll!"

Xie Xuanyi uttered a word with a gloomy expression.

The Snow Goblin turned around and ran away without saying a word. This time, he completely disappeared thousands of miles away, not even daring to gather a trace of spiritual consciousness.
