Chapter 240: Land at the End of the Horizon is This Way
Zhu Yao flew northwards with her quickest speed, the sceneries in her surroundings whistled behind her, for for several hours, but they had yet to see the land of at end of the horizon which Zi Mo spoke of
“Big sis Zhu Yao”
“Mn?”
Wang Xuzhi suggested “Let’s take a short break, we have already flown for an entire day”
“Nosister can hold on”
Wang Xuzhi’s expression sank, as he pulled onto her “Big sis Zhu Yao, we’re already not that far from our destination The land at the end of the horizon is filled with dangers, it’s best that we take a short break before heading there”
Zhu Yao suppressed the anxiety in the depths of her heart, and nodded “Fine then!”
Below them was a lush forest, and Zhu Yao ie tree, she sat in a lotus position and adjusted her breathing, recovering her HP and MP or so Xuzhi sat next to her, and considerately passed her a flask of spiritual water
“Thank you” Zhu Yao gulped it down in an instant, and at that lanced at her with his h there ords stuck in his throat
“What is it?” Zhu Yao reached out to stroke his head “If you have so to say, then say it quickly Don’t hold in the fart”
He clenched his fists, and after a while, he squeezed out a sn Yu Yan so well”
“But of course!” After all, she’s herXuzhi looked down After asis Zhu Yao, I want to ask… you and ancestral rand uncle, you two…”
Zhu Yao turned her head around, and said with a smile “You want to ask, if there’s an affair between the two of us?”
He was stunned for a h he never expected that she would be so direct
Zhu Yao held onto her chin, and pondered for a short while before replying “To be exact, we already had a lot of affairs” Even the atteh he had suffered a blow of some sort The redness on his face drained After a while, he said in a fluster “But… But you two are master and disciple”
“Did the Heavenly Dao make a rule that a master and his disciple can’t be practitioner-pair companions?” There were ht?
“…” He sank into silence, as though he had fallen into a swirl of ehtened even further, as though he was about to pinch out traces of blood “But… Big sis Zhu Yao, you clearly… Why… Why?”
Zhu Yao sighed, as she pulled onto his hands Not accepting any refusals, she carefully broke apart his clenched fists finger by finger “You want to ask why I did not promise you, but have chosen my master instead?”
He blanked for a an to for a look that seemed like he was about to cry “You… knew?”
“You already said it so clearly yourself, and I’m not stupid either!” Zhu Yao shook her head, as she looked straight into his eyes With emphasis on every word, she said “But… Little wimp, are you certain that the love you have for me, is truly the love between a rabbed onto her hands “Ever since young… Ever since I was ten years old, I wanted to hed “Ten years old? Take ulped, and then hurriedly explained “That was just a joke IIf it’s possible… I will naturally be satisfied taking you as ?” Zhu Yao said with a sunken voice “Then why did you want to ?”
“That’s naturally because…”
“Because I took down your pants, and smacked your buttocks?” Zhu Yao interrupted “You believed that you should take responsibility for that, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to marry?”
After a moment of silence, he nodded
“See, the reason why you wanted to , was not because you loved me You already said it yourself that it was a joke, so naturally, it cannot be taken as real”
“In the beginning, that was certainly true But later on, I truly wished to be together with big sis Zhu Yao”
“Later on? What later on?” Zhu Yao asked
Wang Xuzhi was startled for a s towards her had undergone a change, he spoke “Later on, when I grew up and you came out of Jade Forest Peak I don’t really know the specifics either…”
“You don’t know, but I know” Zhu Yao stroked onto his head which was already a head taller than hers “It’s that tian ever since I died in front of your eyes, right?”
He blanked After pondering for a un from then
“Haah… Little wis between a man and woman like? When you entered the sect at ten years old, the person closest to you was s between a man and a woman, but just a form of reliance We couldn’t meet, and e finally able to meet each other, I died in order to save you” Zhu Yao analysed it little by little “Just how old were you back then? Fifteen? You have never witnessed death, let alone one that you were involved in Guilt of being powerless, along with the self-rebuke of not being able to save me, was the knot in your heart that you couldn’t dispel at that time Until I was reincarnated, your knot was finally dispelled But, your inner heart had fired to get back You believed that will is the feelings you have for uilt towards hed “Little wi sis Zhu Yao…” Wang Xuzhi was a little flustered, as he shook his head and said “No… That’s not true! I…”
“Xuzhi!” Zhu Yao held onto his shoulders, and seriously looked into his eyes With emphasis on every word, she said “If you really do have feelings for me, then ever since we have reunited, you clearly had ht up the talk of wanting to be together with ether with my master, did you finally speak up Why is that?”
“…” He was suddenly stunned still, a hint of fluster flashed past his face “I… Because…”
“Because this thought did not cross your ht?”
“…”
“Little wi sister, and liking someone has never required a reason to do so It’s not a responsibility, nor is it guilt”
He appeared to be in a trance, looking as though he understood it, yet did not understand it at the saht into her eyes, and after a while, he said with a sullen voice “Then big sis Zhu Yao, are you certain that the feelings ancestral s between a man and a woman?”
“Of course!” Zhu Yao nodded and said She was after all a certain someone’s first love
“Why?” He anxiously said “How are you so certain that he’s treating you as just his disciple?”
“There’s no need to ascertain it” Zhu Yao pointed to her heart “As long I know for certain over here, he’s the man I wish to be bound with for my entire lifetime Fro to this lady surnah”
“…”
After this heart-to-heart talk, Wang Xuzhi was hout the entire journey, he looked as though he was in deep thoughts His face would occasionally frown, and then look distracted a moment later Zhu Yao understood that he wouldn’t be able to think things through in such a short aain either
Actually, she had long seen through little wimp’s intentions In the past, she did not s through on his own However, she never expected that he would continue to fall even deeper He looked soft on the outside, but he had always been a stubborn child ever since he was young
He entered a deity sect when he was ten years old, and children relying on adults was a regular occurrence Further the joke of taking her as his concubine, he had naturally treated her as his only person to rely on Yet, right from the start, she was isolated in Jade Forest Peak, and they could only contact each other through letters Not being able to ination He drew a perfect ie of her in the depths of his heart
After that, she was let out of the ination would return to norht after The pain of losing a loved one, and his oerlessness, had led to hied to help him dispel it, the former pain was still there Like someone who had once been injured, even if he had fully recovered, he would still habitually take note of the spot of his previous injury The more he looked at her, the uilt as his feelings for her, and was unable to discern the difference between the two
He died because of her, and came to Spiritual Realuilt he had
If he said that the feelings he had for her was love, she wouldn’t believe it even if she was beaten to death She and her master had been in Spiritual Realether all the time, they had also several tiether as well Things like hugging each other’s waists and holding hands were done several tiht
