"No, Yu, you're not late.”Mao Yue Xi Yan heard Xue Yueyu's self-reproaching tone and quickly said. Speaking of which, she was to blame for entering 'Root' without any precautions when she heard that he was a member of 'Root.' It was not until she was imprisoned in the dark room that she realized that 'Root' seemed to be plotting something, and it seemed to have a lot to do with her.
Hearing Xiyan's answer and seeing that nothing had happened to her, Xue Yueyu's worried heart could not help but calm down. After all, he knew very well that this was a brainwashing method of 'root'. It used the fear of darkness to break the line of defense in their hearts and induce them to pledge loyalty to' root'. If it were not for the system that allowed them to enter the cultivation space once a day and feel the freedom in their hearts, perhaps there would not be the Xue Yueyu today.
At this moment, Xue Yueyu did not think too much. He understood that time was running out, so he took a step back and met Xiyan's gaze in the dim light. He went straight to the point and said word by word,"" We don't have much time left now, and I don't have much time to explain to you. Xiyan, listen carefully. I can only say that the entire Woodleaf Village is now my enemy. The reason why I came here to find you is because I like you and want you to escape from Muye with me. But I don't want you to go against your inner thoughts. I'll give you a chance to choose. One is to stay in Muye, and the other is to leave Muye with me!”
Maoyue Xiyan was completely shocked when she heard Xue Yueyu's words. The entire Muye was the enemy of the person she liked. What was going on? Her heart felt like it had been knocked over. Different feelings deeply stimulated her heart. She did not understand what had happened to the village and Yu. The only thing she understood was the choice in front of her. On one side was the village, and on the other side was the person she liked. She suddenly couldn't make a choice. She started to be at a loss and fell into confusion.
After saying that, Xue Yueyu's whole body tensed up and he stared at Xiyan with unwavering eyes. He was looking forward to her answer that she would leave Muye with him, but he was a little worried. After all, Xiyan had grown up in Muye Village. 85 (Intimate). This meant that Xiyan liked him, which was his chance!
Maoyue Xiyan looked at Xue Yueyu with her erratic eyes. In an instant, she felt his sincerity and determination. She suddenly realized that the invisible door that blocked her way had inadvertently revealed a crack. At the same time, she knew that if she missed this opportunity, she would never be able to meet him again.
At this moment, memories from the depths of her mind suddenly surged out. Maoyue Xiyan saw some of the words her mother had said to her before her death: "Xiyan, from now on, you must be a girl who is stronger than anyone else. With the Mao Yue clan's knife technique, you will definitely be able to cut off all the thorns on the road. At the same time, remember never to do anything that you regret!”
From that day on, she practiced her sword skills crazily every day and night, numbing all her sadness. She swore to be a girl who was stronger than anyone else. Therefore, she defeated all the children of her age in Ninja School, but lost the joy of her childhood. Later, in order to become stronger, she entered the elite team of the Dark Group. In a short period of time, she surpassed all her peers in sword skills. When choosing a team, she did not allow her companions to be weaker than herself because her mother died protecting her weak companions. Only those who were stronger than her could be her companions, so she lost the bond between her companions and fell into a state of loneliness.
However, one day, everything changed. A boy with lifeless eyes and a cold aura appeared in the Dark Group. In a duel with her, he defeated her in just one round and even kissed her savagely. Her self-esteem was so strong that she could not allow herself to lose like this. From that moment on, the boy entered her heart.
In her life, the boy was always cold, but behind her back, he was always caring for her. The boy who was not honest had always ignored her, but when he encountered danger, the first thing he did was to be a Guardian Knight! Gradually, she and the boy spent more time together. From time to time, they quarreled, sparred, and carried out tasks together.
All these memories warmed her heart. She saw that there was another person beside the girl who had been practicing her saber arts alone in the wind and rain. She understood that there was another person in the bitter memories of being alone. She understood that there was another person in her heart when she was alone and did not care about anything. All these sweet memories were left for her. Instead, she only got the sadness of losing her parents from Mu Ye. If he hadn't appeared, perhaps no one would have noticed or cared about her in the end, and she would have died alone.
"Never do anything that you will regret!”This was her mother's final warning to her. Now, she gradually understood the meaning of this sentence. In an instant, the fog in her heart began to dissipate, and the invisible wall slowly disappeared. At this moment, she was no longer confused. She was becoming clearer about what to choose. The choice in front of her was only one that she would not regret!
"Yu, if Mu Ye is your enemy in the future, he will also be my enemy. Wherever you go, I will be there.”The confusion in the depths of Mao Yue Xi Yan's eyes dissipated and was replaced by determination. Since she had chosen to stand on Yu's side, then she had to bear everything that he had to bear. This was her decision, this was the way the women of the Mao Yue clan did things.
Xue Yueyu was moved when he noticed the determination on Xiyan's face that would not change even if the sky collapsed. This woman had entrusted everything to him, and the expectations in his heart had been fulfilled. He felt a burst of joy, a strong will to protect Xiyan until the end, a faith of hope. His originally exhausted body, scarred body, and painful body suddenly burst out with hidden potential. This was what the anime protagonist said when he was determined to protect someone. He would obtain an endless stream of power.
It was not an exaggeration to say that Xue Yueyu felt full of strength. His combat ability had returned to its peak state. His spiritual aura had greatly improved, and his temperament had begun to transform. This was his will!
After getting Xiyan's accurate answer, Xue Yueyu felt that time was of the essence and said hurriedly,"" Xiyan, let's go then. The pursuers should be coming soon. The main entrance of Muye Village must have been heavily guarded and it's impossible to leave from there. Moreover, the enchantment around it is difficult to break. Fortunately, because the things that 'Root' does are not exposed, a back door was set up at the bottom of the building. Through there, we can walk to the forest outside Muye Village.”
"Yes!" " Understood!" Mao Yue Xi Yan replied in a low voice.
Xue Yueyu reached out her right hand and held Xiyan's slender hand. She felt a smooth and warm feeling.
Sensing that her hand was being held by Xue Yueyu, Maoyue Xiyan, who had a determined expression, blushed slightly. She looked shy, but she felt more at ease and warmth.
"Let's go!" Xue Yueyu did not say anything more. Instead, she held Xiyan's little hand tightly and slowed down her pace. She took Xiyan away from this disgusting dark place.
The two of them seemed to be telepathically connected. Their steps were the same, and their speed was the same. They moved on the dim path.
After a while, somewhere in the Root base, Yukari Shigen looked at the corpse lying on the ground. A cold light flashed in his eyes and he said with killing intent,"The little brat really came back to save his little girlfriend. Then he must have escaped through the special passage that the root used to leave Muye!”
Then, Zhigen and several elites of Root turned into black shadows and disappeared.
