Poofโโ!
The hot plasma burst out in the air, and the small white flowers all over the ground were instantly stained red with blood.
Without the imaginary pain, Qianling opened her eyes slightly, and was shocked to find that the big snake had fallen to the ground in two, drenched in blood. The snake's mouth was wide open, and it twitched a few times, gradually dissipating into black debris.
The rain was dripping.
There was a faint sound of the wind.
As if sensing something, Qianling raised her head and looked at the black figure that was slowly descending over the forest.
The rain is falling, the small white flowers are gently swaying in the wind, and countless small mushrooms are faintly emitting a light blue fluorescence, illuminating the whole forest.
The pale blue glow rises like a dream.
The young man, dressed in a pitch-black robe, landed quietly in the sea of white flowers, his pitch-black wings gently folded and hung behind him.
The black hair was waist-length, softly draped behind him. The boy stared at her quietly, his almond-shaped pupils in his dark red eyes revealing a hint of bewitchment.
Qianling looked at him, her lips trembled, and she slowly took a step back.
"Ahโโ!!h
The boy watched her scream and turned to run, his eyes were a little dull, and he stood there for a long time without coming back to his senses.
She had imagined many times how she would react when she saw him, but she didn't expect it to be like this.
It's the same reaction as seeing the snake vine.
There was a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
Stepping on a foot in a soft muddy water and almost slipping, Qianling stumbled forward, not daring to turn back.
Demon!
It's another demon! I just escaped from the snake's mouth, and now I'm in the middle of a demon!
Grandpa, grandpa, it seems that I am really in a catastrophe this time, I can escape the death penalty but I can't escape the big snake, I can't escape the big snake and I can't escape the demon! I'm afraid Xiaoling will come to accompany you soon......
The pitch-black wings stretched out, and the young young Ying landed in front of her.
Qianling's eyes widened in surprise, and her footsteps stopped suddenly, but she was unstable and staggered to the ground-
A black figure flashed in front of him.
The next second, he fell into a soft embrace.
"You're still the same. The voice in his ear was soft, revealing a hint of nostalgia.
Qianling struggled to raise her head, the tip of her nose almost brushing his face.
It's so close that you can smell it. The boy stared at her, a look she couldn't understand in his dark red eyes.
Qianling looked at him stunned, and the movements in his hands slowly stopped, forgetting the struggle.
The soft black hair gently flutters on the forehead, lining the skin with a fair and crystalline color. The thin lips are gently pursed, and the slender eyelashes are like a fine fan, gently hanging down, casting a faint shadow on the fair cheeks.
The delicate and delicate face is cold and revealing a trace of beauty, like a crystal clear snowflake, ethereal and white, and thrillingly beautiful.
Qianling looked at him stupidly and tilted her head slightly. I've never seen such a good-looking boy, so beautiful that people can't take their eyes off it.
But......
Qianling slowly leaned closer, staring at his face and frowning slightly.
Why does it sound familiar?
Seeing that her eyes did not blink, staring at him stupidly, a smile appeared in the young man's eyes.
"I ...... Have I seen you?" Qianling looked at him, and a sentence came out in a daze, as if talking to herself.
No, that's not right......
This man is a demon.
Qianling looked at his dark red eyes with some fright, her body shrunk and trembled slightly, as if she had just woken up from a dream, suddenly pulled away, broke free from his arms and took a few steps back.
...... demons look like this?
Qianling lowered her head, her cheeks a little hot.
It's a shame, is she tempted?
Looking at the resistance in her eyes, the young man frowned slightly, and walked over slowly, his voice soft, as if he wanted to explain something.
"Ling ......"
"You, don't come here!" Qianling looked at him in horror and took a step back again.
"You...... How do you know my name?" she looked at him, her eyes frightened and a hint of doubt.
"You really don't know me anymore?" his voice was clear, and he looked at her with a clear look in his eyes.
Such a look, such a tone, is very familiar......
As if remembering something, Qianling looked at him in surprise, in disbelief, and slowly pronounced out the name that was too familiar to be more familiar:
โ...... Satsuki......?"
He smiled softly: "It seems that you haven't forgotten me yet." โ
"No......" Qianling looked at the soft black hair that fell from his shoulders and shook her head, "Satsuki's hair and eyes are silver. โ
The young man looked down at his hair, and said softly: "Due to the curse of thousands of years, although the appearance of the newborn child of my clan is no different from that of an angel, it will change as he grows, and I am the same. โ
โ...... However, Xiaoyue is only five years old, and he is only so tall, you ......"
Qianling gestured on her chest, and frowned at the young man in front of her, who was a head taller than her.
"At that time, my strength was unstable and I could only maintain the appearance of a child. โ
Qianling bit her lip, as if she was still struggling to admit it.
The boy looked at her and smiled softly.
"What other questions?"
โ...... Are you really Xiaoyue?" Qianling looked at him blankly, her eyes trembling a little.
There was no expected joy reaction, and she looked not only unhappy but disappointed.
"Ling ......?"
Puzzled by her reaction, he stepped forward and reached out to touch her.
"No......"
Qianling slowly took a few steps back, her amber eyes staring at him, muttering to herself, still unwilling to believe it.
Whether it was the testimony of Maruko in the prison, or the torture and persecution of Hua Fengyan, even if she was wrapped in scorching golden light on the execution table, she never believed that Xiao Yue would be the demon who killed like hemp, the culprit who disturbed the peace of the entire Ellen Is.
In her heart, that little child is so gentle and lovely, although he doesn't like to talk or express himself, he has always been kind and gentle.
Until now he stood in front of her, personally confessing his identity and shattering all her illusions.
"So...... You've been lying to me?"
The voice was low, as if talking to himself. Chestnut hair fell down, obscuring her face.
Lin Chuan had reminded her before, but she never believed it.
"I ......" he seemed to want to explain, but he couldn't say anything.
Indeed, he had never told her the truth, so what could he explain?
"You once said that the past is not important, what matters is the present and the future......" the voice was low.
"You killed those people?"
Qianling raised her head and looked straight at him, her eyes a little cold and terrifying.
He looked at her, his eyes twitching slightly, and a faint trace of sadness swept over him.
"You think I did it?" he asked, instead of answering.
โ...... You killed the tiger boy?" she looked at him as if she remembered something.
She still minded what Maruko said, but she still wanted to hear him say it in person.
He was slightly stunned, slowly lowered his head, and his hands clenched unconsciously.
After a long time, a clear voice sounded low:
"Yes. โ
โ......โ
Suddenly there was a long silence.
The quiet forest, the pale blue halo rises quietly from the trunks and roots of the trees, and it is psychedelic and charming.
The two stood opposite each other, but they were silent.
โ...... Thank you for saving me. โ
For a long time, Qianling's voice sounded low.
His eyelashes drooped, and he didn't speak.
Qianling pulled the chestnut hair that fell down her cheeks behind her ears, and slowly raised her face to look at him, her voice calm but distant:
"You saved me, I saved you before, it's even, from now on, we don't owe each other. โ
No longer looking at him, she lowered her head and turned away.
The boy stood motionless, staring blankly at her back, his cheeks turning pale.
