Chapter 1107: Shui Yunqing vs. Huo Jingyu (Part 3)
Shui Yunqing was completely stunned.
She stared blankly at Huo Jingyu, still present but her spirit had been shaken to the heavens by his simple two sentences.
When did she and Huo Jingyu get married?
This is sothing absolutely impossible!
Although she had thought about things like kissing and hugging, with her temperant, she would never agree to it!
But for Huo Jingyu to say such things, it made Shui Yunqing incredulous.
Whether it was the young man full of spirit in her mories or the lone gunman Huo Marshal in Jianghu tales, they should both be mature, steady, and very reliable figures.
When did he beco like Carefree King Yan Shunhua, or Sword Saint Xie Linyuan?
Those two were associated with the word “frivolous”.
Huo Jingyu saw her stunned and a smile spread in his eyes, those usually sharp eyes like a hawk were curved.
He raised his hand and waved it in front of her eyes, calling her na again, “Yunqing?”
Shui Yunqing barely snapped back to reality, she took a deep breath, her expression softened a bit, “Marshal Huo, don’t joke around with , these things you speak of don’t exist.”
Shui Yunqing stood up and turned to leave, but she couldn’t go.
A warm hand grasped her cold wrist, then without a word, the slender fingers with irresistible strength inserted between her fingers.
Ten fingers interlocked.
Shui Yunqing’s body trembled again, looking at Huo Jingyu in disbelief.
Is this gentlemanly behavior?
Absolutely not!
“But so of the things I said, I wasn’t joking, and all the gossip you heard was true.” Huo Jingyu said softly, holding her hand, “Ever since that parting at dicine King Valley, whenever I returned to the Shence Military Camp and took a rest, I would think of you.”
He paused for a mont and added, “Even in my dreams.”
Shui Yunqing had never heard such direct and passionate words in her life, and her nature was always serene and reserved, even if there was emotional fluctuation, she would only show three parts.
As a healer, she needed to remain calm at all tis to treat and heal patients.
But upon hearing Huo Jingyu’s words, akin to revealing his heart, she once again froze, and for the first ti, stamred, “You, you… don’t speak nonsense, if soone hears, they will surely—”
“And what if they hear?” Huo Jingyu cut her off, smiling without concern, “Yunqing, it isn’t three hundred years ago, the Commander of the Divine Strategy Army is already dead, and the Master of Taiyi Palace also slumbers here.”
Shui Yunqing was again stunned, after a long pause, she said, “Yes…”
Although they were saved by Ye Wanlan, history had not been rewritten.
In the history books, they remained martyr heroes who died in battle.
“Today, Shenzhou is stable, with no internal strife and no external threats.” Huo Jingyu raised his head, gazing at the distant sun, “This is the Shenzhou I dread of; it’s the Shenzhou we all wanted.”
Peace within the realm, with harmony extending across the land.
Flourishing Divine Land.
For this, he could sacrifice his life countless tis.
If Shenzhou is ever in peril again, Huo Jingyu would still stand courageously at the forefront.
But now, he wanted to live the life he had dread of countless tis.
“Her Royal Highness the Princess said, back then dicine King Valley was also burned to the ground, many dicinal herbs can no longer grow,” Huo Jingyu lowered his eyelashes, his other hand caressing Shui Yunqing’s cheek, “But now the ecology there has recovered, Yunqing, don’t you want to go back and have a look?”
Shui Yunqing’s heart trembled: “Yes.”
“Then I’ll go with you.” Huo Jingyu’s eyes lit up with incredible brightness, “We can first head to Southern Frontier, then travel from there to dicine King Valley, your ho town, and afterwards we can settle there.”
Shui Yunqing was affected by his smile, and she too started to smile: “Alright.”
“Let’s leave now.” Huo Jingyu said decisively, “Though there is ti, I don’t want to wait any longer, I’ve already… waited for a very long ti.”
Three hundred years ago, when he beca the Divine Strategy Marshal, he once imagined life years later.
By then perhaps his hair would have turned grey, and his figure not as upright and robust as in youth, but he could live a life of his own.
He could return openly to dicine King Valley, where he lived at sixteen, to solemnly see the person he cherished.
Perhaps they couldn’t be together, but just being able to see her was enough.
The heavens showed him rcy, allowing him to reunite with Shui Yunqing three hundred years later.
All the words hidden deep in his heart for so long would of course be spoken frankly and openly.
Shui Yunqing lowered her head, after a long mont, she said softly, “So did I.”
Huo Jingyu dread of her, how could she not?
They say only those who mutually long for each other will et in dreams.
“Then let’s go.” Huo Jingyu’s eyes shone brighter, “Yunqing, do you have any unfulfilled wishes? I will help you accomplish them all.”
Shui Yunqing gently shook her head: “The wish is to travel the world, play chess and read books in leisure ti.”
She had been too weary all her life.
“Alright.” Huo Jingyu said, “I’ll accompany you.”
Shui Yunqing hesitated again: “But are we leaving right now? Isn’t it a bit too hasty? Shouldn’t we say goodbye to the others first?”
Huo Jingyu initially intended to take her away imdiately, away from the world’s hustle and settle in a quiet place.
But for so reason, he changed his mind suddenly.
“Hmm.” Huo Jingyu raised an eyebrow, “We’ll go say farewell to Brother Xie and the others.”
Shui Yunqing nodded, not realizing he held her hand even tighter.
After the gathering dispersed that day, Xie Linyuan went to the Lin Family.
After Xia Leyou’s death, he had no relatives and hadn’t taken an apprentice, still remaining the unparalleled Sword Saint of the age.
He hadn’t left any descendants to continue the family, so he thick-skinnedly went to the Lin Family.
The arrival of the Sword Saint thrilled the entire Lin Family.
Lin Qin was sowhat worried because she wasn’t good at interacting with outsiders, especially those who were already marked as dead in the history books.
But after a day’s observation, Xie Linyuan didn’t need anyone to disturb him, he only appeared beside Lin Fanyin, even though Lin Fanyin didn’t give him a glance.
After yet another ti of being turned away, Huo Jingyu arrived at this mont: “Brother Xie.”
Xie Linyuan turned his head: “Brother Huo, you and the Palace Master Yun Qing—”
His words suddenly paused, and then his gaze fixedly locked onto the interlocked hands of Huo Jingyu and Shui Yunqing.
“So Brother Xie already knows about Yunqing and I leaving together.” Huo Jingyu smiled, “Yunqing agreed to accompany back to dicine King Valley, we might settle there in the future, I originally wanted to inform Brother Xie, but since you already know, I won’t say more.”
Xie Linyuan: “?”
What did he know?
Who asked you?
