Fighting Soul Clan Demoness

Chapter 454 I only wish our love for each other would last forever.

During this period, Hun Ruoruo developed a strange habit.

No matter where she went, she would spin the ancient ring on her fingertips, as if she was performing some special ceremony. No matter how Xiao Yixian and Zi Yan guessed, they could not find any clues.

It wasn't until the girl finished her busy work and finally came to a deserted place that the ancient ring finally made a sound under the heavy burden.

"Girl, if you continue to shake me like this, I'm afraid my soul, which has just barely awakened, will be completely lost to you."

A helpless voice sounded slowly. When she looked again, the familiar figure of the old man had appeared beside Hun Ruoruo without her knowing when.

"Master is a liar."

Hun Ruoruo stared at the old man's vigorous face, crossed her chest in dissatisfaction and said, "I noticed something when I invested the soul secret treasure earlier. I'm afraid your soul power is much stronger now than before the injury. How can you look like you just woke up?"

As a soul power in the late spiritual realm, Hun Ruoruo's sensitivity to the soul has far exceeded that of ordinary cultivators. She can see through the state of the soul at a glance, so Yao Lao's disguise is naturally exposed.

Although he was not too dissatisfied with Yao Lao's deliberate concealment, he couldn't help feeling ashamed when he thought about his previous ambiguous behavior towards Xiao Yan.

This old pervert, was probably watching the show while Xiao Yan and I were sleeping together?
Yao Lao laughed: "Girl, the master was indeed awake for a while, but at that time you two were in the Black Horn Region, surrounded by enemies, and you didn't give me a chance to remind you. And then..."

Seeing Yao Lao's smiling eyes, Hun Ruoruo's body stiffened and she immediately lost her composure: "Ruoruo just saw that Senior Brother was under too much pressure, so out of friendship, she was just trying to enlighten him. Master, please don't mention this matter again!"

"Yes, the friendship between fellow disciples, the friendship between fellow disciples, look at my memory."

Yao Lao quickly pretended to have suddenly understood something, then knocked his head in annoyance.

"Alas, as people get older, they always have more unrealistic fantasies. Just like what you said to me at the beginning, what if it works? It's always okay to think about it."

Before she finished speaking, Hun Ruoruo's cheeks had already turned completely hot.

She immediately glared at him: "Master! I have worked hard for your awakening, and it would be fine if you don't feel sorry for me, but you are thinking of selling me out!"

The rest of the sentence was stuck in her mouth. Hun Ruoruo simply turned her head away and didn't look at the other person, with the word "partiality" almost written on her face.

"Haha, silly girl." Yao Lao reached out and gently stroked her head. "You should understand that what your master said is not just selfish. For you, that little guy is indeed the only and best choice."

"Even if you don't want to admit it, you already know this in your heart. That's why you are getting close to him without any resistance, right?"

Yao Lao's words were simple and insightful, carrying the wisdom and generosity of an elder, making them difficult to refute.

Hun Ruoruo lowered her head: "Master, it's easy to say, but love is not that simple."

"Not bad." Yao Lao praised: "I like you, but it can't be equated with feelings."

"Identity, status, strength. The reason we elders sometimes consider being well-matched is because of the 'responsibility' hidden beneath these things. Without the ability to shoulder that responsibility, liking someone naturally won't develop into love."

At this point, Yao Lao's eyes flashed with a glint, and he whispered, "Girl, is what the master said right?" Hun Ruoruo's pupils shrank, "Master, you know everything?"

"As a former member of one of the Eight Clans, how could I possibly not understand the significance of 'divine bloodline' to a clan?" Yao Lao sighed. "I imagine your concerns are likely related to your own bloodline."

Bloodline is like an invisible death warrant to the eight clans. Once they fail to meet the clan's standards, they will suffer the most cruel ridicule and even end up with the shameful fate of being expelled like him.

If the Medicine Clan is like this, what about the even more cold-blooded and cruel Soul Clan?

But what Yao Lao did not expect was that not only was low talent a fault, but also being blessed by nature seemed to have become the original sin that aroused greed in the Soul Clan, even causing this girl who should have been the jewel of the clan to flee even at the cost of her own bloodline.
The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it.

Hun Ruoruo hummed softly, as if Yao Lao's words hadn't caused any ripples in her mood. "That man said he would take me back after his bloodline was fully awakened."

Upon hearing this, Yao Lao's hands trembled violently, as if he had suffered some invisible blow.

He clutched his sleeve tightly, tightening and loosening it, loosening and tightening it again, and finally gave a dejected smile: "Is that so?"

Even though he had anticipated this, when he heard his young disciple say it in person, Yao Lao still felt powerless in his heart, and a rare expression of guilt and self-blame appeared on his face.

He was no longer young and frivolous. Even though he still had a drive in his heart, when faced with such a huge gap, he still found it difficult to think of resisting.

Death is not a terrible thing, the only terrible thing is that you kill the people around you because of your own ignorance and incompetence.
He knew he couldn't choose to interfere.

Yao Lao said with some difficulty: "Girl."

"Master, there's no need to blame yourself." Hun Ruoruo raised her head, her eyes stubborn and bright. "In the final analysis, this is all Ruoruo's own business."

"Brother is very good. Ruoruo has been reluctant to go to Zhongzhou because I hope to leave him with a good enough memory here. I am willing to give up my previous resistance to Dao companions because I can't refuse him and I don't want to see him sad."

"But feelings are really something different. Boys can't, and shouldn't, be the only ones shouldering this responsibility. Ruoruo also wants to contribute, and Ruoruo also wants to fulfill her obligations. Ruoruo doesn't want to see him risking himself for me again."

Hun Ruoruo became more and more excited as she spoke, but finally she seemed to realize her own loss of composure, and slowly calmed down her emotions, saying softly:

"So, since I can't give him a stable future, I naturally can't easily agree to it. Does that mean I'm a bad person, Master?"

Hun Ruoruo buried her head in Yao Lao's arms and quietly wiped away the glittering light from the corners of her eyes. "If I have to blame someone, I can only blame that witch who didn't know how to distinguish between good and evil and didn't know how to keep a distance."

Upon hearing this, Yao Lao fell into complete silence and was unable to come back to his senses for a long time.

He stretched out his hand and patted the girl's trembling shoulder with pity: "Silly girl, you think too much, it will only make you suffer."

Yao Lao knew that even if he died, he would never see his little disciple return to that dark cage.

Yes, after getting to know Xiao Yan, they actually learned the same thing from each other -

There are always impulses and passions that are higher than reason.
