The sunlight seed to entangle with the breeze, carrying the fragrance of flowers, refreshing and soothing to the heart and lungs.
It made one want to experience it again and again.
In the blink of an eye, several days had passed.
Qian Renxue and her brother, no matter the weather, never missed a day.
After their morning training, they would go to the pavilion during their break ti.
Qian Renxue would read, while Qian Renjue practiced with his knife.
Bibi Dong would pour tea and enjoy the flowers, watching Renxue and Renjue.
Her book had remained on the sa page throughout this ti.
Mother, daughter, son, and siblings.
They sat quietly, not speaking, not interacting.
But even in this silence, Qian Renjue always wore a warm smile on his face.
Whenever he completed a part of his task, he would joyfully look up and share his happiness with Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue, almost like a silly grin.
At those monts, both Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue wouldn't miss a single detail, watching him attentively.
Qian Renxue openly smiled back at him.
When Renjue looked at her, she would look back; when he smiled, she would smile too.
Bibi Dong, on the other hand, would steal glances.
When Qian Renjue looked at her, smiling, she felt an inexplicable warmth in her heart.
And now, Qian Renjue finally finished carving the thin 'ice jewel' into small elongated diamond shapes.
According to the instructions, he fused them into a long chain.
Excited, he thought, with this necklace, Bibi Dong wouldn't be vulnerable to external evil influences anymore.
There was no ti for celebration.
Qian Renjue eagerly reached for the piece of ice-blue crystal with the shape of bird dung in the box.
Next, he needed to carve it into shape and polish it smoothly.
Then, this bird dung could truly be called the [Ice Heart Pendant].
Excitedly, yet distracted, he began cutting.
"Hiss..."
His special system knife slipped on the bird dung and cut his thumb.
He quickly dropped the knife and checked the wound.
A small cut that had been closed started bleeding slowly.
The sight of the crimson blood made Bibi Dong frown, almost rising from her seat.
But Qian Renjue hurriedly packed up his things and held them close to his chest, hiding his injured hand.
Standing up, he turned to Qian Renxue.
"Sister, let's go back to training."
"Training?"
Qian Renxue was surprised, frowning slightly.
Usually, when she didn't speak, Renjue wouldn't suggest leaving.
"Yes, yes, isn't it ti already?"
Qian Renjue clenched his fist behind his back, wanting to heal quickly so it wouldn't affect his pendant carving.
"Alright then."
Qian Renxue, though puzzled, got up, walked over to Renjue, and they prepared to leave.
"Big sister, Jue will head back. We'll co again tomorrow," Qian Renjue cheerfully said to Bibi Dong, bidding her farewell.
Bibi Dong, concealing her concern, nodded slightly in response.
"Let's go, sister," Qian Renjue grinned even more, calling to Qian Renxue and running off.
"Wait for ," Qian Renxue called, glancing at Bibi Dong before hurrying after him.
Watching the siblings leave, it seed like the warmth in the pavilion was leaving with them.
The once warm breeze now made Bibi Dong shiver.
Without them, the flowers seed to lose their color, the blazing sun dimd, and the evening moonlight grew cold.
During this ti, Bibi Dong felt as if she were in a dream, existing in another world.
She had her own sun and moon.
Renjue was the sun, and Renxue was the moon, both shining on her.
"Is this the reason for his change?" she suddenly thought of Qian Xunji, holding a ladle in her mory.
But the thought passed quickly, and her once delicate face twisted again.
No matter how much things changed, what was done was done, and she would never forget it!
Bibi Dong's killing intent surged, throwing the book aside.
Her expression grew darker, as if sothing unknown had provoked her.
Her killing intent was overwhelming!
A sharp red light flashed in her purple eyes, and her murderous aura suddenly stilled.
She threw the book down and moved forward.
Crouching where Qian Renjue had just been, she looked at the drops of blood on the ground.
This was the third ti she had seen Qian Renjue bleed.
And it seed that every ti, it was because of her.
Bibi Dong reached out with her delicate fingers, gently touching the drop of blood.
"Xiao Jue, you must hate mom, right? But I just can't forget... I can't forget that day!"
Her eyes shone with bloodlust, her body trembling slightly.
Dark mist seed to swirl around her.
Under the bright sunlight, an extre evil lurked within her.
She raised her hand, saring the blood on her lips.
Slling Qian Renjue's scent, tasting his blood, Bibi Dong slowly cald down, though the hatred in her eyes solidified.
At the sa ti, Qian Renxue bit Qian Renjue's fingertip, sucking away the last drop of blood.
Together, they sought out a healing spirit master.
After healing the small white scar, they returned to the worship hall.
Qian Renxue, holding a book, led Qian Renjue, who was clutching the box, her golden hair flowing in the wind.
Looking back, she warned him, "Jue, next ti you get hurt, don't hide it from ."
"Sister, Jue wasn't planning to hide it from you," Qian Renjue smiled as he followed closely behind.
"That's good."
Satisfied, Qian Renxue turned, patting his head and pinching his cheeks, never getting enough of teasing him.
"Xiao Xue, Xiao Jue..."
A gentle voice echoed across the empty grass.
"Dad."
Both Qian Renjue and Qian Renxue greeted Qian Xunji.
"How was it? Did you have fun?" Qian Xunji asked, smiling as he ruffled their hair.
"It was fun!" Qian Renjue answered imdiately.
Qian Renxue nodded with a smile.
"That's good."
Qian Xunji's face softened with affection.
He had visited that place before.
But his presence always cast a cold shadow over the warm scene.
Qian Xunji understood.
If he went there, everyone would beco uncomfortable, so he stopped going.
But that didn't stop him from having Ghost Douluo keep watch.
Qian Xunji didn't feel envious.
He had enjoyed his own warm monts for many years, long enough for Bibi Dong to be envious of him instead.
He just hoped to enjoy a few more years of this.
With anticipation, Qian Xunji reminded them, "Don't forget what tomorrow is."
"We won't!" Qian Renjue replied loudly, "Tomorrow is our birthday!"
Qian Renxue added, "It's also the day we awaken our martial spirits."
"Good, good."
Qian Xunji happily picked them up, despite their height almost reaching his waist.
Qian Renxue's eyes held expectation, along with a cold and determined look.
This ti, she was going to perfected her god throne!
anwhile, Qian Renjue's eyes showed a trace of worry.
But Qian Xunji didn't notice as he casually asked, "So, what do you want for your birthday gifts?"
