Chapter 136 Under the Night

When it was dark, Bai Yu got up and lit the small candle on the table, and the bright flame swayed gently among the three of them, taking in the expressions of the three of them.

"White girl, can I take the liberty of asking what the relationship between this person you said and you before?"

Su Yanxue rubbed the teacup with one hand, her eyes were deep, and she couldn't see joy or anger.

The deep darkness of the night hid out of the reach of the candlelight in the room, and behind them, only a pale twilight remained.

Bai Yu's eyelids raised slightly, this time, she didn't answer Su Yanxue's question immediately as before, but turned her head and submerged her eyes into the corner of the room that was invaded by the boundless night.

Just when Su Yanxue and Tianyin thought that Bai Yu would not answer again, Bai Yu's eyes suddenly moved slightly

"She's my sister."

Sister? Su Yanxue suddenly remembered the matter of the Lan sisters.

"White Girl...... Sorry, we're not ......"

Tianyin also seemed to realize that there was something wrong with Bai Yu's emotions, and hurriedly opened his mouth to say something to divert the topic, but Bai Yu only smiled slightly and gave Tianyin a reassuring look

"It's okay, you don't know."

"This ......"

Unlike Su Yanxue, Tianyin couldn't act like he hadn't heard anything about Bai Yu's words just now, he subconsciously looked at Su Yanxue, hoping that she could say something round, but Su Yanxue just shook her head silently, not planning to say anything.

"By the way, you haven't told me why you're here in the royal city?"

Without Su Yanxue and Tianyin saying anything else, Bai Yu changed the topic by himself.

"We're here for the auction, and we're going to the Eternal Palace to find something by the way."

Tianyin glanced at Su Yanxue quietly, and saw that she had no intention of stopping herself from answering, so she chose to tell the truth.

"Auction, does it mean the auction of rare treasures the day after tomorrow?"

"Yes, White Maiden."

"So, what are you looking for when you go to the Palace of Eternal Life?"

"Immortal Stone."

This time, to Tianyin's surprise, Su Yanxue actually answered Bai Yu's question one step ahead of him, he could only silently suppress the words that had reached his mouth, but Tianyin didn't understand why Su Yanxue would answer Bai Yu's question so bluntly, after all, Tianyin knew that Su Yanxue had never trusted others easily.

Hearing the three words of the Immortal Stone, Bai Yu's face became strange, she pursed her lips, looked down at the teacup, and then looked up at Su Yanxue's expression, after making sure that Su Yanxue and Tianyin were not joking with her, Bai Yu said with some hesitation

"You don't know what the Eternal Life Palace and the Eternal Life Stone mean, do you?"

Su Yanxue shook her head as a matter of course, she really didn't know what that meant, and the only thing Tianyin had mentioned to her was that legend.

"The legendary Eternal Life Palace is the place where the butterfly god prays, and the current Eternal Life Palace is the royal land of the Xingyuan Continent on the other side, don't you know?"

Tianyin and Su Yanxue looked at each other, they really hadn't heard of these.

"Royalty? Does it refer to the three great emperors of the Star Abyss Continent on the other side? ”

"Of course not."

Bai Yu shook his head decisively, it seemed that the two people in front of him didn't understand the situation at all.

"That'...... What does the White Girl mean? ”

Although Tianyin has been by Mo Ye's side for so long, Mo Ye has never mentioned his identity in front of Tian Yin and Mu You, let alone those royal family matters, so even Tian Yin doesn't know the true meaning of this Eternal Life Palace.

Seeing that Tianyin and Su Yanxue were obviously out of condition, Bai Yu felt that it was necessary for him to remind them

"The Palace of Eternal Life is the land of the royal family of Xingyuan on the other side, only the reigning emperor of Xingyuan on the other side is qualified to live there, the three emperors you are talking about are just the guardians of his throne, and to put it bluntly, it is just the ruler that people think of, and in the Palace of Eternal Life, in addition to the immortal pool that gave birth to the immortal stone, there is also the place where the holy daughter of Xingyuan on the other side lives-Xinghai Palace."

"Because of some special reasons in history, the emperor clan of Xingyuan on the other side abides by the regulations of the first emperor and hides in the royal city and has always existed as the behind-the-scenes rulers of the mainland, so the so-called three emperors are just the guardians of the imperial throne elected by the emperors, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are puppets of the royal family on the surface."

"So the Eternal Life Palace is not an easy place to enter, and the possibility of obtaining the Eternal Life Stone is even smaller."

"And what do you mean?"

After listening to Bai Yu's words, Su Yanxue frowned, she didn't expect that the Eternal Life Palace would be such a place, and she didn't expect that this would have something to do with the supreme ruler of this continent, after all, with her current strength, she really couldn't compete with the emperor's clan, even if she was pushed out, she was not an opponent.

"If you choose to break into the Palace of Eternal Life, then there is only one outcome, and that is death."

Bai Yu warned Su Yanxue and Tianyin very seriously, although she and they only met today, she really couldn't bear to watch them die.

"Then what can the White Maiden do?"

"I choose to wait, I have already inquired about the approximate location of the Eternal Life Palace, as long as I go and guard, I will definitely have a chance to sneak in."

"But you didn't mean it, white girl...... Aren't you afraid of death? ”

Looking at Bai Yu, who was clenching the teacup in his hand, Tianyin asked worriedly.

“……”

However, the long silence became Bai Yu's answer, and she sank her eyes into the dark corner again.

The light of the candlelight was playfully teased by the night breeze that slipped in from the window, and it flickered and flickered, completely pulling the silence between the three into a world of great silence.

Suddenly, Su Yanxue got up, she picked up the teacup, and her tone was unusually calm

"I understand, this Eternal Life Palace, I have to go."

With that, she drank the cold tea in the teacup.

"What?"

Bai Yu and Tian Yin raised their heads in surprise and looked at Su Yanxue, but Su Yanxue said with a look of disapproval

"If we don't go, you're going too, so why don't you go together so that you can still have a care, or do you think you're the only one who can go on an adventure?"

"Of course I didn't mean that......"

Su Yanxue's words made Bai Yu stand up from her seat in a panic, she pressed her hands on the table, and subconsciously wanted to refute Su Yanxue's statement, but Su Yanxue didn't give her a chance to speak, but continued to ask expressionlessly

"Since you think that we are going to die, isn't it the same as sending you to die if you go alone?"

"Senior Sister Su......"

Tianyin watched Bai Yu's eyes gradually darken, and wanted Su Yanxue to stop, but Su Yanxue just glanced at him coldly, and turned around after speaking.

When Su Yanxue's figure completely disappeared outside the door, Tianyin and Bai Yu came back from their stunned state, the two looked at each other, and Tianyin opened his mouth first in embarrassment

"White girl, Senior Sister Su, she ......"

"Well, I know, she's not like that."

Bai Yu's eyes drooped, it seemed that Su Yanxue's words just now really made her shake, but did she do something wrong?

Tianyin knew that as soon as he said it, it would be difficult to take it back, let alone someone like Su Yanxue, so he had to take a step back

"Miss Bai, it's getting late now, I'll go back first, and ask Miss Bai to think twice before acting."

"Hmm."

Bai Yu replied in a deep voice, and it was at this time that a gust of wind suddenly broke into the room, completely extinguishing the light of the candlestick in the air.

The pale moonlight came in through the window, leaving a trail of afterimage.

Tianyin said goodbye and left, stepping into the vast twilight, Bai Yu knew that she had thought things too simple after all.

The candles are out, and it's time to go to bed.

Tonight, the silver moon proudly exuded its brilliance in the sky, causing the stars to consciously hide behind the clouds.

The hustle and bustle of the day disappeared into the footsteps of the night like an illusion, and only Su Yanxue wandered alone on this ancient bluestone brick paved street.

The gray-white moonlight poured down from the top of Su Yanxue's head, and the road was a flickering ghostly light, and occasionally a few silent small pits shrank between the bricks, waiting for the fooled people with evil taste.

However, the result was disappointing, and when the moonlight poured down, there was nowhere to hide from the clever mechanisms, only the star beasts who didn't like to watch the road and sneak out would step on them, and then be held up by the darkness in their own night.

There is no one around.

It's like many years ago, Su Yanxue, who walked alone on the road in the night, and she who was regarded as an ominous person by the world, at this moment, returned to reality.

She once thought that if she found Qinghe and Lu Qianyun, she would be able to live the peaceful life she wanted, but the reality is that if she is Su Yanxue for a day, she will not be at peace for a day, and she will not be worthy of love.

However, she has always believed that one day has a dream.

In that dream, there was a man standing beside her who said

"I'm here."

In that dream, there was a person who was by her side and said

"I believe in you."

In that dream, there was a person who stayed by her side and said

"I'll be with you."

She had thought that person would be Lu Qianyun, but he extinguished all her delusions step by step.

Thinking of this, Su Yanxue stopped, she looked up at the silver moon that was radiating coldness, and did not say a word.

A sense of confusion that she had never felt before suddenly came to her heart, and she suddenly wanted to ask herself, why did she come to this strange world? Why did she come to this strange world?

She thought she could have a real blank beginning, but now she found that every step she took seemed to be inextricably linked to the world, or was everything just her thinking too much?

Under this deep night, Su Yanxue suddenly found that she had never let go of her previous things, but she had been deceiving herself......

And at this moment, a slender and tall figure appeared at the end of the bluestone street, and he walked far away......
