After all, until now, Jing Liu is still one of the serious criminals on the Xianzhou Alliance's wanted list. If she is discovered, even she will find it difficult to save her.

But on second thought, considering the boy's current reputation, it really wouldn't be that difficult to remove her label as a serious criminal.

Even if he wanted, even the mistakes made by Jingliu could be silently erased in history. No one would notice or care.

only......

The reason why the girl was uncomfortable had nothing to do with any of this.

Six hundred and ninety-two years ago, that is, in the 7380th year of the Star Calendar, according to historical records, the former Luofu sword master "Jingliu" fell into the evil shadow, and the Yunqi gathered in the Xingcha sea to fight him, and his whereabouts were unknown.

And in that battle, the person who led the Xianzhou was Jing Yuan.

Jingyuan didn't want to recall the scene of that day.

But the familiar face of the woman at this moment did not remind her of the warmth of her childhood.

That day...the Yunqi who died under the woman's sword...she still remembers their names and appearances.

How could it be impossible for the girl not to feel resentment and resentment towards her master?

But she also knew and understood...she did not want to fall into the devil's shadow. The pressure and wear and tear from all sides forced her into a desperate situation. The pain she endured was beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

The two looked at each other for a moment, but eventually they looked away, unwilling to look at each other anymore.

"Ah! Master, you are here? ..."

"I then had a lot of words that I wanted to pour out like pearls: horned chicken, jumping fish, shells, civets, ... but I always felt like something was blocking me, and they just kept circling in my mind and couldn't come out."

"She stopped, her face showing a mixture of joy and sadness; she moved her lips but made no sound. At last she became respectful and cried out distinctly:"

"General!..."

"I seemed to shudder; and I knew that there was a tragically thick barrier between us. I could not utter a word."

Like a narration, the calm male voice narrated slowly, making the two people who were already immersed in complex emotions become even more depressed subconsciously for a moment, until Jing Yuan reacted first. All kinds of sad, angry and funny emotions mixed together, making her not know what expression to show or what words to say for a moment, so she simply turned around and walked into the house.

"Ok?"

An Jing blinked and vaguely felt that something was wrong.

Oh no, it seems like these two are hiding something?

Are we breaking up?

He turned his head and looked at Jing Liu.

"What's going on?"

The woman was silent for a moment, as if she was thinking about how to respond.

After a while, she finally spoke with some guilt: "That year, I fell into the devil's shadow... and was stained with the blood of Yunqi..."

Jingliu's words were brief, but they carried an extremely heavy meaning.

“Ohh…hiss…”

Only then did An Jing remember this matter.

I thought, it’s bad.

This has really become a cliché.

Actually, he had understood this matter when he just came back, but he used the Void too much when fighting the hunting patrol a few days ago, and the aftereffect was too strong. He forgot a lot of things in a short period of time. Even his memory and destiny could not help him retrieve them, and the mask that used to work well was not so effective this time.

Maybe I've used it a bit too much.

An Jing thought.

If an ordinary person were to do this, he would have destroyed himself long ago.

"Forget it, leave her alone."

The boy waved his hands.

The likable thing about Jingyuan is that she always finds a way to take care of her own affairs, and most of the time he doesn't have to worry about anything.

And even if she is really angry this time, as General Luofu, she will not run away. Can't she comfort her whenever she wants in the future?

In comparison, the one in front of me now is more worrying.

"Let's talk about you."

An Jing never liked talking while standing, so he still lay down on the recliner and waved to Jing Liu to come over.

The woman came over and sat on the stone pier.

"How's the revenge going?"

"..."

She shook her head.

Come to think of it.

"Come on, I've tried it recently and I can probably give you some advice. Even if conventional physical means reach their limit, it would be meaningless to really kill the physical body of a star god."

After all, An Jing didn’t think that if it really made sense, Lan would not have run away at that time.

I can't really be that stubborn.

And it seems a bit too easy to kill a star god in this way?

The boy didn't try to persuade her to give up.

It's nice to have something to strive for.

Although I can't see the end.

Volume 1: Chapter 255: Yaoqing Trio

"......I see."

Jingliu was somewhat concerned about what the boy's light-hearted words "let's give it a try" represented.

"You haven't suffered any injustice outside, have you? If you have, just tell me. You know, I don't even have to go there in person now. I just need to mention it and there will be countless people willing to help me deal with it."

"Nothing."

The woman shook her head.

She is not stupid and her strength is quite strong, so it is not her turn to suffer injustice.

"Very good. Why did you come back so suddenly this time? What's the matter?"

He asked again.

"..."

Jing Liu's eyes, which were already drooping, trembled a few times. "I just happened to hear about your story, and I happened to be near the Immortal Boat, so I couldn't help but come over to take a look."

"Oh oh."

The boy nodded. "Well, how about you just stay? If nothing unexpected happens, I will probably continue to live here."

"As for the identity issue, don't worry about it. Everyone is smart. Once I show you around, they will know what to do."

An Jing originally wanted to suggest that he would accompany Jing Yuan as well, but he was not sure about their attitudes towards each other at the moment, so he simply gave up the idea.

so troublesome.

"......No."

Jing showed some obvious hesitation, but finally shook his head.

On the one hand, she didn't want the boy to have any stain in the eyes of the alliance just because of her. Although she knew that the boy might not care, she did.

On the one hand... the woman still doesn't know how to face Jing Yuan, let alone how to continue her normal life. Even if she comes back, she may only be able to sit in this courtyard all day, accompanying him when the boy is here, and waiting for him to come back when he is not here.

Apart from this, she seemed unable to imagine what else she could do.

Her only skill...she no longer had the face to return to the Cloud Cavalry, to face them.

An Jing sighed.

Just by looking at her expression, you can tell how confused this person is right now.

Why do you work so hard? Why do you set such high standards for yourself?

Don’t you know that at your age, most people in Xianzhou should stay at home or in a nursing home, doing nothing and enjoying their old age?

"Okay, I won't advise you anymore."

The boy shook his head and let her go.

He didn't like to advise others in the first place, and he always abided by the principle of respecting the fate of others. As for his tolerance towards those close to him, he was even more exaggerated. Basically, as long as they didn't do anything evil, he was not willing to interfere.

We are all adults now, so let's try to understand and respect each other.

But for no apparent reason, he suddenly felt a little lonely.

how to say.

It seems that things have really changed.

The junior sister in front of me, a few hundred years ago, although she often couldn't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth, her words were usually thorny, and even if she cared about you, she would express it by choking you. She was a pure tsundere.

But at least he said quite a lot.

Her emotions were also clearly expressed. Although her face usually looked cold and dead, the emotions fluctuating in her beautiful eyes were extremely obvious in front of him.

The boy still remembered her youthful appearance on the stage when she won the sword championship crown at the martial arts ceremony.

But what does the person sitting in front of me look like?

She seemed afraid to even look at herself.

He sat with his legs crossed on a stone block slightly lower than the recliner, his face somewhat stiff, as if his muscles had atrophied because he had maintained the same expression for so many years.

Those beautiful eyes were also surrounded by a circle of black gauze. It was obvious that those sapphire-like eyes should be scarlet at this moment.

The responses in conversation were just a few short words, and silence was commonplace.

Even when I was talking to her, I couldn't help but start to worry about some things.

In the past, the words "joke" and "concern" did not exist in his dictionary.

He had told countless hellish jokes about their master in the past, and every time, she was so mad that she chased him with a sword.

Of course he knew that Jingliu was really angry at that time, and the joke he made was indeed a bit too much.

But the boy didn't care at all.

He only cares about whether he is happy enough.

As for my junior sister’s feelings, let’s just ignore them.

But now that An Jing has learned to consider her feelings...she is no longer the same as before.

......yes.

He wasn't the only one who was changed.

Everyone is different.

I can't go back.

The young man realized this matter clearly for the first time, and couldn't help feeling sad and regretful.

It really came true. Just as Xun Ge'er wrote, at this moment, there seemed to be an invisible screen between them.

Perhaps Jingliu's feelings for me have not diminished, otherwise she would not have come back to Xianzhou to see me.

But hundreds of years of separation have changed a lot of things after all.

The groove is really nagging.

Silence fell between the two for a moment. No one spoke first. They both lowered their eyes, as if lost in some memories.

Until there was another knock on the door.

An Jing stood up.

"I'll go see who it is."

He remembered that no one should come today. Wasn’t Mei scheduled to come tomorrow?
