It was rare for Yu Sui to share her innermost thoughts with him. i Liangyu was also moved by what he heard, the soft ache in his heart reaching its peak when Yu Sui said "if I liked you," making his heart flutter uncontrollably.
i Liangyu didn't deny that he liked Yu Sui a bit.
Maybe he would like her even more in the future.
Thinking of Yu Sui's "if" just now showed that Junior Sister didn't like him yet.
i Liangyu continued walking forward and couldn't help but chuckle after thinking for a mont.
The Five Elents Energy active around i Liangyu gradually decreased. He held Yu Sui and asked in a low voice: "Has the bleeding stopped?"
Yu Sui responded: "It's stopped."
"Does it still hurt?" i Liangyu asked again.
Yu Sui also answered honestly: "It hurts."
i Liangyu pressed her head further into his embrace. Yu Sui added: "Not as much as before."
She spoke gently, her words lightly brushing against i Liangyu's heart without pain or itch.
Yu Sui raised her head again to look at Wenyang Hui behind them, her eyes clear black and white as if confirming sothing. She rested her chin on i Liangyu's shoulder, rolling her eyes as she said: "Senior Brother, why do I feel like I've been getting injured constantly since coming to Taiyi?"
"It's all other people's fault," i Liangyu said.
Yu Sui added: "You're always getting injured too."
i Liangyu replied: "I have too many enemies."
Yu Sui stared at Wenyang Hui, temporarily falling quiet.
i Liangyu glanced over, both amused and exasperated: "Why do you keep looking at him? What's so interesting about him?"
Yu Sui explained: "I'm afraid that dragging Wenyang Hui like this, if we're not careful he'll die, and if he just dies in our hands like that, it would be troubleso."
"Soone will kill him," i Liangyu pressed Yu Sui's head back into his embrace.
Yu Sui thought about it and probed: "Master?"
i Liangyu humd in agreent.
"Will Master really act? After all, he's the Wenyang Family's Young Master," Yu Sui was sowhat doubtful.
i Liangyu circled around to the other side of the snow mountain. He didn't use Wind-Riding Techniques to hurry because there was no need.
Hearing Yu Sui's question, i Liangyu only said quietly: "He has a reason to die."
According to Saint Chang Gen's way of doing things, he would consider the chanism Family's importance to Taiyi and would give the Wenyang Family so face, so he wouldn't let Wenyang Hui die.
i Liangyu had ways to make Master kill Wenyang Hui.
They both had reasons to kill Wenyang Hui, and Wenyang Hui was in a fight to the death with these two. Whether Yu Sui or i Liangyu acted, there would be endless trouble.
The only one who could kill Wenyang Hui without bearing consequences or fearing more trouble was Saint Chang Gen.
After hearing this, Yu Sui looked up at i Liangyu, her eyes reflecting his angular face. From this angle, the man's profile looked even more coolly handso, with coldness hidden in his slightly upturned eye corners.
i Liangyu looked down and saw Yu Sui watching him, finally feeling satisfied.
Don't look at Wenyang Hui, look at him instead.
Yu Sui said: "Senior Brother, I want to sleep for a while."
i Liangyu wouldn't let her sleep: "Sleep after we get out."
"Will there still be danger?" Yu Sui forced herself to stay alert. In her severely injured, near-death state, she could finally ignore Strange Fire's burning and fall into deep sleep.
After hearing this, i Liangyu was silent for a mont, then said in a low voice: "There won't be any more danger."
Yu Sui said again: "Then I'll sleep for a while."
i Liangyu looked down at her, his brow slightly furrowed: "It's safer to sleep after we get out."
"Didn't you say there's no danger?" Yu Sui turned sideways in his arms, burying her small face completely in his chest, saying in a muffled voice: "Senior Brother, don't worry about dying in my sleep. I won't die."
i Liangyu was both angry and amused, suddenly rembering the scene he saw in the Divine Wood Seed. If the Divine Wood Seed's divination was real, then Junior Sister indeed wouldn't die here.
But what about after that?
When she was exposed as a World Destroyer and surrounded by everyone, when she released Strange Fire, would she live or die?
It seed only he was certain to die.
i Liangyu stopped walking and looked down at Yu Sui with serious eyes.
Yu Sui had already closed her eyes to rest in his arms. Even though she sensed Senior Brother had stopped, she was unwilling to open her eyes.
Until she heard i Liangyu say in a low voice: "Nangong Sui."
Yu Sui rarely heard i Liangyu call her na. The few tis before all carried different kinds of fierceness, but this ti she couldn't detect any ferocity, only rare seriousness.
"If you died, I wouldn't be able to sleep," i Liangyu stared at her and said, then lowered his head to her forehead in what seed like a bump or touch. "So don't sleep."
Yu Sui was forced to open her eyes, looking back at him sowhat helplessly.
Seeing her open her eyes, i Liangyu continued walking forward.
"Senior Brother," Yu Sui laughed softly. "I really won't die."
i Liangyu said: "When you sleep, you look like you're dead."
Yu Sui: "......"
She closed her eyes and said: "Then Senior Brother, you should also try the feeling of not being able to sleep."
Just pretend I'm dead.
i Liangyu's eye twitched slightly. He couldn't help but look down at Yu Sui, who was already burying her face in his chest and sleeping without a care.
……
chanism Island.
Heavenly Cloud Court was brightly lit. Even though wind, rain, lightning and thunder raged outside, so areas of Cloud Court were completely unaffected, not even rain could fall here.
Lady Linxiang sat in her room feeling anxious, occasionally looking out the window. When she learned that the chanism nine-sided die had been taken by Wenyang Hui, she felt both angry and urgent, knowing what he intended to do with it.
She had wanted to ask Lord Sui to bring him back, but discovered that Lord Sui was in league with him. Lady Linxiang felt her vision go dark, so angry her temple throbbed.
The Wenyang Family's chanism nine-sided die was kept under Lady Linxiang's care.
Today Wenyang Hui said he wanted to learn his family's chanism Arts, asking Lady Linxiang to let him into the chanism Pavilion.
Seeing her child had been wronged recently and feeling bad about it, Lady Linxiang let Wenyang Hui in. When he didn't return and she saw the chanism nine-sided die was also gone, she realized sothing terrible had happened.
The conflicts between Wenyang Hui and i Liangyu had accumulated over many years. Lady Linxiang had also advised him several tis, hitting and scolding him, but in the end he was her own child, so she couldn't help but favor him.
Lady Linxiang had repeatedly told Wenyang Hui not to mind i Liangyu, saying your father values talent and only appreciates that child's abilities, but you are the Wenyang Family's Young Master while i Liangyu is nothing, so why must you compare yourself to him?
Whether good or bad, it was best not to get involved with that child.
But Wenyang Hui just wouldn't listen.
Lady Linxiang knew her son's obsessive personality. Sotis she found it annoying and frightening, but in the end he was her child, and he had his likeable monts too, so she couldn't just ignore him.
This matter absolutely couldn't let Wenyang Zhi know.
Lady Linxiang had people suppress the news, waiting for Lord Sui and Wenyang Hui to return. Instead of waiting for those two, she waited for two children from the Situ Family.
A maid hurriedly ran in to report: "Madam, Young Master Jin and Miss Ling from the Situ Family are here, and they brought the Situ Family's chanism nine-sided die. They're looking for Second Master."
Lady Linxiang's expression changed as she stood up: "Find a way to stop them. I'll go first."
She already had an ominous premonition.
Wenyang Zhi was still at Celestial Pavilion tonight talking with rchant association people about recent goods. The conference hall was full of people, and Third Head Wenyang was also there.
This batch of goods was handled by brothers Wenyang Zhou and Wenyang Xiu, who were standing behind the crowd looking at record books in their hands and talking quietly.
A group of people were discussing enthusiastically when suddenly two figures descended with hurricane winds, blocking all the pursuing guards behind them or striking them back with the hurricane. The hurricane violently threw open the conference hall's doors and windows, blowing green ginkgo leaves all over the floor.
Wenyang Zhou poked his head out to look. The black-robed youth who landed looked familiar, with a roguish face and fox-like eyes that loved watching excitent. He was setting down the dizzy Situ Ling.
Wenyang Xiu was initially on guard, but after seeing clearly who the two were, he raised his eyebrows: "Did you two wreck your own ho and co wreck ours?"
Situ Ling still felt dizzy after landing, grabbing her brother's sleeve and scolding: "You actually stopped from delivering the ssage. Are you conspiring to kill Brother Liangyu? How did he get the Wenyang Family's chanism nine-sided die..."
Before she could finish, her brother Situ Jin covered her mouth, lowering his voice to warn her: "There are so many people here, give them so face."
The rchant association people all looked like they wanted to watch the excitent but didn't dare. Wenyang Zhi coldly told them to wait next door.
Situ Jin walked into the conference hall, spreading one hand with the chanism nine-sided die floating in his palm, announcing loudly to Wenyang Zhi and others: "Lives are at stake, please forgive , Second Head."
He reported that Wenyang Hui had taken the chanism nine-sided die and trapped i Liangyu and a girl who seed to be Nangong Sui in the second layer of chanism Island. Finally, he bowed respectfully before the elders: "Grandmother said, if these two die on chanism Island tonight, the Wenyang Family will inevitably see blood."
The words were polite, but Wenyang Zhi understood the aning.
Grandmother Situ hadn't directly sent Saint Chang Gen to chanism Island, but had warned the Wenyang Family first, which was quite face-saving.
Wenyang Zhi's expression grew increasingly cold. He rarely showed emotional fluctuations normally, so no one could tell what he was thinking.
Third Head sitting in his chair put down his teacup without speaking. Since the troublemaker was his second brother's child, it wasn't his place to say much. He only gave Wenyang Zhou a look, telling him to go to the second layer of chanism Island to bring people back.
Wenyang Zhou and Wenyang Xiu left the conference hall. Just as they exited, they encountered Lady Linxiang coming over. The two brothers didn't even greet her and hurried away.
Lady Linxiang stood at the doorway, seeing the Situ Family children standing in the hall, her face turning pale.
Wenyang Zhi in the room was also looking at her, asking expressionlessly: "You gave him the chanism nine-sided die?"
Lady Linxiang opened her mouth but felt that explanations were useless. She only shook her head, tears shimring in her eyes as she said tremblingly: "He's been feeling wronged recently and acted impulsively."
Wenyang Zhi said nothing and walked toward the exit.
But Lady Linxiang understood him. Seeing him say nothing made her feel panicked. As Wenyang Zhi passed by her, she quickly reached out to grab him, saying quietly: "Brother Zhi, let him off this once. In the future I'll definitely..."
Wenyang Zhi glanced at her: "This isn't the first ti either. How many tis have I let him off?"
Lady Linxiang had been holding her breath, and after hearing him say this, she could no longer contain it, releasing it sharply.
The originally gentle, quiet person was now almost hysterical. Lady Linxiang's five fingers gripping his sleeve suddenly tightened: "Are you going to watch your own son die?"
She gritted her teeth: "He's my only child!"
Wenyang Zhi grabbed Lady Linxiang's hand with greater force than hers, leading her forward away from the others behind them before saying in a deep voice: "Their family also only has i Liangyu left."
This hit Lady Linxiang like a thunderbolt, making her face even paler while the sharp, aggressive aura around her instantly dissipated.
"You and I both know very well what would happen if i Liangyu died. You also know Hui'er's temperant best. If he wants to kill soone, he'll think of every way to make that person disappear. Even if we break his hands and feet and lock him in a dungeon, he'll still curse for that person to die every mont."
Wenyang Zhi pulled Lady Linxiang forward, also looking ahead himself. The path was covered with green leaves just blown down by the hurricane, which had been vibrant on the trees monts ago but now lay lifeless.
Life and death happened in an instant, never knowing when it would co.
"If we really confined Hui'er like that, it would be no different from letting him die." Wenyang Zhi's voice was extrely cold, as if he was restraining all emotions to stay rational. He said quietly: "Would you have him kill i Liangyu and then have the chanism Family disappear forever?"
Lady Linxiang's legs gave out. Wenyang Zhi turned to support her, but she still knelt on the ground, covering her face and weeping.
Situ Jin and Situ Ling waited behind, not daring to approach and disturb them.
Just as Wenyang Zhi reached out to help Lady Linxiang up, he sensed the heaven and earth's energy trembling. Pressure ca from above. Heavenly Cloud Court, which could avoid wind, rain, lightning and thunder, couldn't avoid the thick ink-like darkness.
Ink-colored energy fell like teors, scattering above Cloud Court. Though formless, everyone on the ground felt the cold sensation of being watched.
Saint Chang Gen's consciousness invaded Cloud Court, and everyone received his non-negotiable demand: "Hand them over."
