Chapter 92: The Covenant of the Time
Within the boundaries of the Jiangcheng Alliance.
There is a small lamp lit in the dark room, and the occasional evening breeze blows, and the candlelight flickers and the light and shadow floats.
Ning Ye sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the quiet face of his lover who fell into a deep sleep, and was silent for a long time.
This room was the residence of Dongfang Qingyue, who was the sword elder of the Dao Alliance, and as early as when she came back, she washed the filth on Jiang Jingyi's body and took out her own clothes to change into.
"Ning Ye, you've been tired all day, why don't you go back and rest first. I'll stay here and watch over you, and I'll let you know as soon as Miss Jingyi wakes up. Dongfang Qingyue on the side said with some worry, for fear that he would exhaust his body.
After all, in her eyes, Ning Ye was just a monk who hadn't even achieved the foundation building, and he was still a mortal in the flesh, and his body still needed to rest like an ordinary person.
"I'm fine, thank you for the kindness of the Oriental girl, and I've really worked hard for you."
It's not that Ning Ye slapped his swollen face and became fat, but he knew his body very well, since his body had changed inexplicably, his physical fitness in all aspects had increased by leaps and bounds, even if he didn't rest for a few days and nights, it would not be a problem.
The reason why he stayed here was because he wanted to wait for his lover to wake up, and the first thing he saw was himself.
This is the only thing he can do now as a boyfriend.
Because according to the big man of the Dao Alliance leader, Jiang Jingyi only had the last four days left, and human nature was gradually eaten away by demonic nature, and the time to wake up every day gradually became shorter, until she fell into an eternal sleep and no longer woke up.
It's not death, but it's far more cruel than death.
Therefore, every minute and every second that follows is extremely precious and worth cherishing.
Dongfang Qingyue said with some self-reproach: "You don't need to thank me, you sacrificed your life to save me at the beginning, and this kindness is too insignificant compared to the little things I do now." It's a pity that my cultivation is still shallow, and I can't do more for you and Miss Jingyi. ”
Seeing Ning Ye so persistent, Dongfang Qingyue sighed lightly, then didn't say anything anymore, sat aside silently, and waited with him for Jiang Jingyi on the bed to wake up.
The reason why she blames herself is that she can't repay this old affection, if she cultivates to be able to reach the realm of the Supreme Elder in the Alliance, she can reverse the demon blood and let Ning Ye's lover return to normal.
As for the price of her life, it is also a matter of course in the eyes of Dongfang Qingyue, who has a favor and will be repaid, if he hadn't made a move that day, she would have died in the hands of the rebellious Pure True Zen Master of the Dao Alliance, and in an extremely humiliating way, even the corpse would be shamelessly desecrated.
Almost everyone in this world is greedy for life and afraid of death, but Dongfang Qingyue is an exception, she is not afraid of death at all.
Since birth, he has shown extraordinary talent, and his sword body Tiancheng has been recognized by the supreme Taoist weapon Qingyue Divine Sword, and since he was a child, he has been fully cultivated by his family as the hope of Zhongxing, and at the age of seventeen, he shattered the Dan Ning Infant and became a high-ranking sword-wielding elder of the Dao League, which looks extremely beautiful, but this is not what she wants, and she has never felt happy.
Since she was a young child, the most common thing that everyone in the family said to her was that she had the responsibility of leading the Dongfang family to prosperity again, so she must do her best in the path of cultivation.
In order to let her grow up as soon as possible, several elders in the family did not hesitate to spend their longevity to pave the way for her to wash her marrow and bones, and do their best to make the last contribution they can to the family.
Too many words of advice, too many ardent expectations, converged into a heavy mountain, all weighing on her immature shoulders.
When she was young, an injured snow rabbit accidentally entered her room, and she had no resistance to this cute thing by childish nature, and after healing it, she secretly hid it. After that, her happiest time was when she was holding this cute snow rabbit and talking to her every day after practicing, treating it as her only friend, although it couldn't respond with words.
But one day, when she returned to the courtyard, she saw her father standing there with a serious face, and under his feet was a snow-white mass soaked in blood.
On that day, her angry father dragged her to the family ancestral hall, held a punishment rattan in her hand, and ordered her to kneel down to the spiritual seat above and confess.
Among the rows of spiritual seats there, there were several newly placed tablets, which were the elders who had volunteered to pave the way for her.
"But I'm really working hard to cultivate, and these clan elders haven't asked their own wishes when they do this?"
The rattan whipping on the body was a hot sting, and Dongfang Qingyue, who was young at the time, did not dare to say these questions in her heart. Because she was surprised to see her father, who had always been strict and majestic, with red eyes flowing with crystals.
When she was young, she didn't understand why she felt pain when she was beaten, but why did her father have red eyes and cry?
She didn't understand this, but looking at the rows of spiritual positions above, she seemed to understand something else.
Since then, she has worked harder to cultivate for the sake of what she has on her shoulders, because only whenever she makes progress in her cultivation, her parents and relatives will smile on their faces and praise herself.
Later, her parents informed her that the family had to marry with the Nangong family for some special reasons, although she didn't understand what the so-called marriage meant, but this kind of thing that was beneficial to the family, Dongfang Qingyue had no room to refuse, so she naturally nodded and agreed.
After so many years of going all the way, she doesn't feel hard, she just feels a little tired, the kind of exhaustion born from the bottom of her heart.
It's just that when she thinks of the advice and ardent expectations of her parents behind her, she can only continue to move forward, and keep moving forward, even if there is darkness and nothing ahead.
"Oriental girl doesn't need to blame herself, you have already helped me too much. As for the so-called life-saving favor, you've already repaid it, haven't you? Ning Ye turned his head and looked at Dongfang Qingyue Dao in front of him.
"Repayment...... Passed? ”
"Yes, have you forgotten that I didn't mention the conditions earlier?"
Dongfang Qingyue remembered the scene at that time, and finally remembered what the so-called repayment meant.
On that day, he wanted to repay this life-saving kindness, so he asked him to mention it, whether it was a cultivation exercise or a rare elixir, as long as he was within his ability, he would try his best to give it. But he said that he didn't want anything, as long as he smiled more in the future, and said that it was enough.
"But this ...... Didn't you joke at the beginning? ”
Ever since a few days ago, after learning that Ning Ye was not the so-called Sun Bai, Dongfang Qingyue had always thought that what he said at the beginning was just a joke.
"The big husband has a word, and the horse is hard to chase! I'm a life-saver, I'm very serious, so Oriental girl, you have to work hard, don't always keep a straight face in the future, remember to smile more! ”
After these days of contact, Ning Ye also found that in fact, this Elder of the Alliance Road Obsessive Sword, although his personality is a little old-fashioned, he is actually quite a good person, and he has done his best to help himself so much.
And the reason why the old thing is brought up again can be regarded as a little reward for him.
I really can't bear to look at such a young girl, like a dull and silent old woman, always looking loveless.
Dongfang Qingyue was stunned for a long time, and then nodded solemnly, saying that she would definitely work hard in the future and try her best to smile more.
