I really wanted to know why, but this wasn't enough to move me. During the two years I lived in Chushan's house, all the hatred and happiness disappeared with the passage of time. I no longer missed the peaceful days I once thought I could have, nor did I think about returning to that kind of life in the future.
" That has nothing to do with me anymore…" I said lightly.
" Murong Xi…" Shui Xuanyue did not seem disappointed." I know you hate Murong Xi…"
"No!" I interrupted him." I don't hate him. He's no longer Murong Xi. He's our one and only emperor! His name is Li Xijue!"
"Ji 'er, do you still remember me?”" Ji 'er, do you know how much I wanted to rush to the Capital City to kill him when I found out that you were dead?" Shui Xuanyue's eyes seemed to be covered in a layer of mist. I gave you to him, but he didn't let you live happily in this world!”
" You…" I opened my mouth in shock, not knowing what to say.
"Ji 'er, you don't know, Murong…the Emperor said that you were buried in water. I sent people to search for you along the rivers just to see you. I don't know if I should be happy or sad. I couldn't find you for two years, so I kept telling myself that you weren't dead. The emperor lied to me, he wanted me to give up!”Shui Xuanyue stared at me as her thin lips parted. I couldn't believe that this was the once cold Shui Xuanyue.
"Until I sneaked into the capital, into the palace, and saw the Empress…It's funny, Ji 'er, do you know the Empress' name?”Shui Xuanyue sneered.
Of course I know. I was the one who arranged for the Empress. So Bi Ru isn't dead.
"The emperor has conferred her the title of acting empress! Daiqing, Ji 'er…I saw the empress' face and truly believed that the emperor was not lying to me on purpose.”
These words shocked me. He actually made Bi Ru a substitute…substitute…but to replace me by his side?
" Ji 'er…" Shui Xuanyue held my hand." Come with me. Don't let me live in pain."”
" But…" I continued to hesitate. It wasn't that I didn't want to leave, but I just couldn't let go of this kind of life. It was peaceful yet happy.
"Ji 'er!" He put my hand on his chest." Can you feel my heart beating for you? During the days at the Ice Mysterious Sect, I would always look at the bed when I woke up in the morning. You weren't there. When I reached the main hall, you were still not in the east wing. When I was reading, I wanted to find someone to talk to, but when I looked up, it was empty. Can you feel my feelings? Ji 'er…come with me…I'll protect you and never let you get hurt again!”
I pursed my lips and finally nodded.
Shui Xuanyue heaved a sigh of relief.
" Sister Xia..." Hong Ying pushed the door open and came in with tears in her eyes." Are you leaving us?"”
I quickly stood up and pulled my hand away from Shui Xuanyue's. I pulled Hong Ying to sit down and said,"" Hongying, I'm not from here. I've disturbed your lives for so long…It's time for me to leave…"
Hong Ying didn't say anything and threw herself into my arms, crying,""Sister, I can't bear for you to leave! Chu Xia said the day before yesterday that she would bring you to the mountains to catch foxes in autumn!”
I patted her back." It's not like Sister isn't coming back. When Sister feels that she misses you, she will naturally come back to see you."”
Hong Ying raised her red eyes and glared at Shui Xuanyue.""I hate you! If you didn't want me to go with you! Sister won't leave!" Then she begged me," Sister…stay…Hong Ying won't bother you anymore…"
" Hongying," Chushan finished applying medicine on his father and walked in." Miss Xia still has her own things to do. You can't force her to stay just because you like her. That will make things difficult for her."”After saying that, she looked at me with a smile.
I always thought that Chushan was a very good friend. I didn't expect that at this moment, his image in my heart would shine again. Hong Ying wiped her tears aggrievedly and sobbed a few times. She got up and stood next to Chushan to look at me.
"Hatsuyama Sakura, I will definitely come back to attend your wedding.”I promised them. Their wedding was decided half a year ago. Originally, Hongying's father, the village chief, did not like Chushan. However, seeing that Chushan's life was getting better, Hongying stuck to Chushan since she was young. In the end, she did not object much and decided to marry her daughter in October. The day was coming. It was less than three months away.
Hong Ying's face instantly turned red. She pinched Chushan and ran away. Before she left, she gave me a reluctant look. Chushan stood rooted to the ground, not knowing why Hong Ying had pinched him.
I laughed out loud, and Shui Xuanyue's expression softened.
"I'll go tell Grandma and Uncle Chu.”I got up and went out. Grandma had just returned from the West End Wang's house. When she saw the large group of people in the courtyard, she thought that something had happened. When she heard that I was leaving, she held my hand and muttered about my good daughter... The person I couldn't bear to part with the most here should be Grandma. Grandma is old and walks slowly, but she treats me like her own daughter. I went to the door and told Uncle Chu. Uncle Chu felt that I would leave one day. My departure did not surprise him.
In the evening, Charm Blade brought my things to the door. Chushan supported Uncle Chu while Hongying held Grandma's arm as they sent me off in the courtyard. Grandma even specially brought me my favorite red bean dumplings to eat on the road.
The feeling of parting finally spread reluctantly in the setting sun.
He turned his head back three times with every step he took, and the figure shrank bit by bit until he could no longer be seen.
"Wow, are these people here to participate in the selection of the new overlord?”I excitedly looked at the bustling crowd in front of the Huashan Sect. Shui Xuanyue merely glanced at him and said,""They might not be here for a martial arts competition. Most of them are just here to watch the show.”
Even if it was just to watch the show, there were still a lot of people! There were monks, lamas, bold girls, and quiet ones. At this moment, I felt that Shui Xuanyue had brought too many people with her."With so many people here, can the Huashan Sect recruit them?”
"It's fine. The Huashan Sect has been a large sect since ancient times.”Shui Xuanyue waved her hand and had Charm Blade pass the name card to the little disciple of the Huashan Sect.
Someone immediately led us into the Huashan Sect.
The Huashan Sect was not built on the top of the mountain, but not far from the waist. Fortunately, they were not at the top of the mountain. Otherwise, they would die of exhaustion. Yesterday, she had crawled all the way to the evening, and today, she had crawled all day before she finally arrived. I admit that I dragged everyone down because I kept shouting that I was tired…
"Young Sect Master." A middle-aged man walked over.
"Senior Brother Song." Shui Xuanyue bowed at him.
Senior Brother Song smiled and led us up the mountain."Before the sect leader left, he specially instructed me to properly entertain the people of the Ice Mystic Sect. I wonder why the sect leader didn't come?”
"My father said that as an elder, he is unwilling to compete with us juniors for the position of Lord, so he only sent Xuan Yue.”Shui Xuanyue spoke to Senior Brother Song respectfully.
Out of boredom, I glanced at the Huashan Sect's senior brothers and junior brothers who were rushing past me. I followed Shui Xuanyue closely and bumped into his back with my nose.
"Ah!" I covered my nose and looked at him aggrievedly.
He smiled lightly." This is Senior Brother Song. When my father brought me to visit Senior Uncle Yao when I was young, it was Senior Brother Song who brought me to play. Senior Brother Song, it's summer."
I covered my nose and smiled apologetically at Senior Brother Song."Hello, Senior Brother Song…"
Senior Brother Song was a straightforward person. He immediately laughed out loud."Little Junior Sister is so cute!"
"Shixiong, you've misunderstood. This isn't my father's disciple.”Shui Xuanyue smiled faintly. I've never seen Shui Xuanyue smile so many times before.
"Eh?" Senior Brother Song immediately became curious,"Could it be Sister-in-law?"”
Shui Xuanyue's face immediately turned red.""Shixiong must be joking. She's my servant girl.”
Hearing this, I felt a little awkward. What would happen if I admitted it! Even if we weren't engaged or married, I was the one who undressed and dressed you every day!
Of course, I only dared to think about it. Otherwise, Shui Xuanyue might really throw me down the mountain.
Senior Brother Song brought us to a place similar to a courtyard house and arranged for us to stay. Of course, I don't know if it's a coincidence, but after everyone moved in, my room was the only one missing. As Shui Xuanyue's personal maid, I'm finally sharing a room with him again.
"Shidi, please rest here for a while. I will go and entertain the other guests. When dinner time comes, I will send someone to invite everyone to the main hall.”Senior Brother Song looked at me ambiguously.
I rolled my eyes.
She flipped through the sheets on the bed and found that they were all new. The Huashan Sect wasn't a big sect with an undeserved reputation…Everything in the room, other than the bed, tables, chairs, and other big items, were all new.
I placed my and Shui Xuanyue's bags in the cabinet and placed his books on the table. Just like before, I didn't even change the position of the books.
He suddenly remembered the Purple Melting Jade and asked,""What is the Purple Melting Jade for?”
He put down the book in his hand and raised his head. With the Purple Fusion Jade, he could summon ghost soldiers to work for him.”
The Purple Melting Jade had a long history. "A long time ago, the princess of this country was similar to the ancestor of the current emperor. In order to protect the peace of the country, she married into a faraway country. However, the king of that country did not abide by the contract and sent troops to attack our country. There was a very powerful wizard who did not participate in state affairs. His only beloved son was killed by the army on his way home.
