Zhu Fei, while speaking, seed to rember sothing he didn’t want to recall, and a faint expression of pain and struggle appeared on his face.
Since she had known Zhu Fei, this was the first ti Qiu Ruoxue had seen such an expression on him. Inside, she was surprised and also felt a bit guilty and distressed.
She reached out her arms once again, hugging Zhu Fei, and rested her face on his chest, speaking softly:
"Zhu Fei, let it go, no need to say more. Can we not talk about this anymore?"
However, Zhu Fei shook his head, forcing a smile as he patted Qiu Ruoxue’s back, and in turn, comforted her:
"It’s okay. The events have been pressing on my heart for two lifetis now. Perhaps speaking them out fully might make feel a bit better."
Seeing Zhu Fei insist, Qiu Ruoxue understood that the matters between Zhu Fei and Huan Sha in his past life were probably the biggest knot in his heart during these two lifetis.
If indeed he could, as Zhu Fei said, completely reveal those past events, it might truly help him untie the knot in his heart.
Thinking of this, Qiu Ruoxue no longer insisted, and her arms around Zhu Fei naturally tightened a bit more.
It was as if Qiu Ruoxue wanted to provide greater comfort and encouragent to Zhu Fei in this manner.
Zhu Fei could feel the fiery affection hidden beneath Qiu Ruoxue’s cool exterior. Seeing this, he gave her a slight smile and continued:
"One day, because I purchased alchemy ingredients, I inadvertently had a conflict with a Su family cultivation family. At that ti, I had only Nascent Soul cultivation, while the Su family was a powerful family with a Returning to Void Cultivator guarding it.
Perhaps to maintain their family’s dignity at the ti, the Su family sent nearly ten Nascent Soul Cultivators to hunt down. Fortunately, I had a friend nad Xu Yang, who used certain hidden ans to temporarily help evade the Su family’s pursuit.
But because of this, it eventually brought disaster to my good friend Xu Yang..."
At this, Zhu Fei bitterly rubbed his forehead, took a deep breath, and then refocused his spirit before continuing:
"I rember very clearly, it was a twilight with a setting sun as red as blood. I arrived with Sha Sha at the eting place agreed upon with Xu Yang. But do you know what I saw?"
Zhu Fei, slightly emotional, said, "I saw Xu Yang’s corpse hanging high in the middle of the city wall! Surrounding the city walls were the Cultivators from the Su family who had previously hunted ."
Zhu Fei slowly closed his eyes as if recalling the scene he saw back then.
After so silence, Zhu Fei, with a slightly hoarse voice, spoke again:
"It was only then that I learned Sha Sha, who had followed for decades, was actually a mber of the Su family, haha. On one side were the murderers of my friend, and on the other was the person closest to at the ti. Faced with such an absurd situation, what else could I do?"
Zhu Fei shook his head with a bitter smile, "Even though I knew that Sha Sha actually had little to do with it, she was after all a mber of the Su family, and she had been with for so long without ever revealing her true identity.
Even if I had no intention to investigate further, I couldn’t convince myself. After all, Sha Sha was from the Su family, and the Su family was the enemy who killed my friend. Such a complex situation left really not knowing what to do..."
"So later on, you only killed the Su family mbers involved in the incident, while you sent Sister Huan Sha to the Pavilion Master, avoiding her for nearly hundreds of years?"
Since Zhu Fei began speaking, it was the first ti that Qiu Ruoxue had spoken.
She looked at Zhu Fei’s bitter and complicated expression and saw him nod with difficulty, feeling sowhat distressed. She couldn’t help but comfort him:
"There’s no need to think too much, everything has been in the past for so long. So things, you don’t have to bear alone. ngyun and I will always stand by your side."
At this point, Qiu Ruoxue’s expression was slightly hesitant, but in the end, she said nothing.
Zhu Fei noticed this, took a deep breath as if to exhale all the suffering he had endured over the years.
Finally, Zhu Fei forced a relaxed laugh, "Haha, saying these things that have been weighing on my heart really does make feel much better."
After a brief pause, Zhu Fei smiled at Qiu Ruoxue, as if the bitter and painful person before wasn’t him at all.
"By the way, previously, I thought you seed to have sothing you wanted to say to , what’s the matter? Are you not planning to tell now?"
Seeing Zhu Fei’s smiling face, Qiu Ruoxue knew it was intentional, and she lightly shook her head:
"Forget it. I’ll tell you so things when the opportunity arises."
"Oh."
Zhu Fei was not surprised by Qiu Ruoxue’s response.
But because of this, Zhu Fei felt even more moved in his heart.
He knew that no matter what happened, no matter what situation he encountered, everything about him would always be of primary importance to Qiu Ruoxue.
Even with soone like Huan Sha, who was kind to Qiu Ruoxue, she still considered his feelings first.
Thinking of this, the shadow caused by the matter with Huan Sha earlier seed to inexplicably disappear.
He chuckled as he looked at Qiu Ruoxue and suddenly said, "Ruoxue, if I’m not mistaken, you were probably going to talk to about sothing related to Sha Sha, weren’t you?"
Seeing Qiu Ruoxue’s slightly unnatural expression, he imdiately picked her up and placed her on his lap, feeling the elasticity and softness of her body, and said with a smile:
"Actually, it’s nothing, as you just said, everything has passed for so long. So things, indeed, it’s ti to let go of.
But as you know, we Cultivators either don’t have heart knots, or once we do, even if we want to let go of them, it’s not sothing that can be done quickly.
So now I think, if I can adjust my mindset and face the current people and things positively, can it help untie my heart’s knot more quickly, Ruoxue, what do you think?"
"What you said... is it all true?"
Qiu Ruoxue’s expression still showed so concern and she asked Zhu Fei uncertainly.
Zhu Fei raised his hand, gently tapped Qiu Ruoxue on the forehead, and then pretended to be stern:
"So untrusting of your husband, deserves punishnt!"
After speaking, Zhu Fei ignored Qiu Ruoxue’s surprised expression and resolutely picked her up, heading towards the ’bed’ not far away.
"Since you’re unwilling to speak now, we’ll talk later."
"Ah! No!"
Qiu Ruoxue exclaid.
