Chapter 156: Parting

Seeing the eager expression on Mu Yan's face, the old man sighed inadvertently.

"What's wrong with you? Grandfather? ”

Mu Yan hurriedly asked.

The old man didn't speak, staring at Mu Yan with his sickly but very sharp purple eyes, as if he was examining him.

Even if he is dying now, even if he is an ordinary person who has half a foot in the coffin, the insight and intuition of being a sword saint still remain on this body, invisibly giving Mu Yan heavy pressure.

"Mu Yan," the old man said, "you must have something to hide from Surya, right?" ”

Mu Yan was silent and pursed his lips.

"And you're not going to tell her, are you?"

Still silent.

"You're worried about her, and you think it's going to hurt her, so you choose to hide it, or even say goodbye, and throw the problem at me, at this old man who has just woken up and stepped into the grave with one foot, hoping that I can convince her for you, and even wake me up as compensation for her, right?"

Or silence.

The old man let out a long sigh: "If I can still wield the sword now, young man" The old man suddenly snapped: "I will definitely pierce your knee with a sword, so that you kneel on the ground and feel less than one-thousandth of her pain!" ”

Mu Yan couldn't help but shudder, and his face turned red.

The air between the ancestors and grandchildren froze for a long time, until the old man couldn't help coughing a few times, and his tone softened.

"Listen, young man, whatever you are going to do, go and meet her. She's a smart girl, she'll understand you, and won't cry and restrain you like those stupid women. Only in this way, when the worst happens, you will not regret it, and you will be more open-minded, and only in this way will she be equally hopeful

"She gave it all to you, and you have reservations, I won't accuse you on the big ground, it's not fair or not, it's just that I, as a grandfather now, don't think you deserve to be so cared for by her. Even if you are about to shed blood and sacrifice for more people, even a race, and a world, these will not make up for her. Do you understand? ”

Mu Yan nodded, bowed deeply, and then turned to leave.

Patunax, who was standing beside the bed, looked at the thin old man, his eyes flashed with admiration, and he put his hand on the side of the bed.

In an instant, the flowers and plants that had withered and withered after leaving Mu Yan began to grow wildly, and the whole room was full of spring for a while, filled with a strong fragrance of flowers and greenery, in addition to the vigorous vitality, the mellow and gentle soul power went crazy into the old man's body, moistening his soul that had long been dry

Regarding this scene, the old sword saint Rhine did not have any surprise on his face, but instead surged with more and more worry.

He had once been a sword master like no other in the world, standing almost at the top of Lokan, and even the haughty elves had to express their heartfelt admiration for his genius

However, he could not comprehend the sudden attack he was subjected to in the year of his fall, the power that had inexplicably imprisoned him for decades, and the mysterious whisper of 774

At the same time, he couldn't understand Mu Yan's sudden appearance and the current situation in front of him.

There is only one explanation for this: they are beyond the reach of mortals.

Even if he is a legend, a sword master, and a person at the top of the pyramid of mortal strength, he is still a mortal.

Beyond this category, there is no doubt God!

And the old man was incredibly sure that all this, all this about the gods, was the problem that the young man had just intervened in

If he had nothing to do with Mu Yan, he would be surprised, feel terrible, and even feel comforted that there was such an outstanding young man in the human race

But now, he only felt his heart pounding and uneasy.

Because that was the person his granddaughter loved the most, he would rather it be an ordinary human being.

The old man closed his eyes, and a tear slipped from the corner of his dry eye.

In the Stuka neighborhood adjacent to Liberty Square, on the busiest Dumke Street, the nobles and commoners of the Morning Star lined up in a long line, registered on the migration register. They were noisy and noisy, and there were one or two clashes from time to time, and the guards of the royal city on both sides of the long street had to play the role of security guards.

The procession was more than a thousand meters long, coming out of Dumke Avenue and twisting into an S-shape along a small alley that had been cleaned up, and the first half was unusually quiet, probably because of a blonde swordsman with a single ponytail.

Both the arrogant nobles and the sensitive commoners cast their eyes on her with reverence and admiration, forgetting the quarrel for a while, and even the air became harmonious.

"Surya!"

A clear, unsociable voice pierced the enchanting air, and everyone in the group glared angrily at the person who made it, while others gloated.

The last person who spoke disrespectfully to the daughter of the Grand Duke of Rose like this had already been stunned by the sword qi that came from nowhere.

But unexpectedly, hearing this voice, the female swordsman who was originally patrolling with a sword trembled, turned around and stood in place, and the bold young man who should have been punished walked forward quickly, and the distance between the two was constantly shortening!

Hell, how does this look more and more like a pair of lovers??

The girl was supposed to show joy and happiness, but for no reason, when she saw this face and crooked eyebrows, she actually cried.

She didn't know why, tears burst out of her eyes, and even though she was grinning, the tears still flowed uncontrollably, sliding down her cheeks, and the tears fell to the ground and shattered.

Mu Yan sighed in his heart, he had tried his best to disguise perfectly, but he still couldn't escape the girl who seemed to be able to see into his heart forever.

Who can tell who is stupid and who is smart between the two people.

He stepped forward quickly, hugged her gently, and stroked her back in the gentlest way, as if he was carefully maintaining the craft, for fear of breaking it.

"Well, let's cry, it's more comfortable to cry."

Surya seemed to be choked by this unconventional way of comforting, broke into laughter, and couldn't help coughing a few times, and then hugged Mu Yan tightly, saying that he would not let go.

The people in the long queue suddenly lost their eyes, this was the first time they had seen the precious daughter of the Rose Archduke crying so miserably, and more importantly, she was also held in the arms of a strange man, without resistance

Soon, however, they couldn't see anything, and the two of them were engulfed in white light that represented teleportation, and then disappeared into the long street.

It was still the Jorglugrin of Morrowind Academy, the tree that Mu Yan was most familiar with, and the young man was lying on the girl's lap, holding her hand, feeling a moment of tranquility.

A gentle breeze blows, the lightly scented air is blown away, and the leaves rustle.

"Are you leaving again?" The girl asked, her voice soft.

"Hmm."

"Can't I go along?"

"It's too dangerous, so it can't."

"Oh" The girl seemed to be a little resentful and pouted, but said nothing. "Then you go, I'll wait for you to come back, all the time."

"Surya."

"Huh?"

"I've always wanted to tell you, but I haven't had time." Mu Yan said softly, and shook her hand vigorously, as if this could give him courage,

"Actually, I've always been a coward, not brave, let alone heroic, and this word has nothing to do with me since I was a child

"I don't dare to promise anything easily, because I am afraid that others will be disappointed in me, I am afraid that they will leave and no longer trust me, I am afraid of taking responsibility, I am afraid of living up to expectations"

The scholar's body trembled slightly, exposing his weakest side to his lover without reservation.

Sulia leaned over and hugged him, the two bodies pressed close together, feeling each other's heartbeats.

"I'm not a hero, a savior, and I hate that I used to take on such a big responsibility, and I couldn't even make others not worry about me, but now, I am crowned with the responsibility of saving the world. Every moment I asked myself, is it really possible, to face the forces that can easily tear me apart, to face an unknown, confused world

"I thought about this every night after Mr. Glazer left, but I told myself that I had no right to refuse and no right to give up the right to think about these things because it had fallen on my shoulders

"But, but that's really tiring, very tiring, very tiring

"I'm overwhelmed by the burden, and I can't show the slightest cowardice, especially in front of you.

"So, I can't stop, I can't slack off, at least not right now."

Mu Yan muttered in a low voice, straightened up, wiped away the girl's silent tears, and gently kissed her lips.

For a long time, the lips parted.

"I'll always wait for you," the girl said with a smile and tears, "always." So, you'll be back, right? ”

"Yes."

Mu Yan replied with a smile.
