Chapter 296: Origin

"You seem to be a little happier lately."

The one who asked was the man Yan Shu had met before.

"It's fine."

Ling Yao paused.

"Well, there's some meat grown, do you like the food that person brought in?"

The man looked at Ling Yao, but there was no unpleasantness in his speech.

"It's quite an appetite."

Ling Yao thought for a while and replied, she was not surprised that the other party had found out about Yan Shu's frequent coming.

He is Xu Li, the current palace master of the Hades Palace, this Hades Palace is his world, and he will always find out if he has a heart.

"That's okay, I'll let people learn to cook what you like, and you can eat your favorite food in the palace in the future."

Xu Li looked at Ling Yao gently.

"I don't really belong here, do I?"

Ling Yao didn't continue to talk about these topics of food, but suddenly asked.

"This is your home."

Xu Li looked at Ling Yao and sighed in his heart.

"But no one in my family knows as well as an outsider what I like to eat?"

There was a little more emotion in Ling Yao's tone.

Yaoyao...... Do you remember something? ”

The man's face was a little complicated.

"No, I just feel like I should go with him."

Ling Yao pursed her lips and looked into the distance, although the distance was also invisible in her eyes.

"Isn't it good to stay here? Don't you like your current life? ”

Xu Li's tone was a little more earnest.

"Uncle Xu, it's good here, you have been accommodating me and taking care of me. Even though I don't belong here, and I don't have my family here, you still gave me a home. ”

"It's a good life, but I still have something to do."

"I've been dreaming a lot lately of fires, corpses all over the ground, and blood as red."

"So, I can't stay, I'm going to find the meaning of my existence."

Ling Yao continued to say sentence by sentence, this was the first time she had said so many words to Xu Li, but this was the first time she was saying goodbye.

"Ling Yao, those used to be very heavy burdens. If you want, I'll take care of it for you, you don't have to leave. ”

Xu Li knew that Ling Yao was willing to say so much, one because she cared about her uncle, who was not even a blood relative, and the other because she really planned to leave.

But Xu Li still wanted to fight for it, he didn't want to watch Ling Yao fall into that kind of life, killing too much, and she was too young.

"I don't think I wanted to let go of even the burden."

Ling Yao smiled, she knew Xu Li's kindness, but she also knew herself, if she was not firm enough to eat her former self, how could she end up in that step?

Xu Li was a little speechless, because he couldn't deny it.

You must know that Ling Yao almost gave her life for revenge.

He still remembered that when he found Ling Yao, Ling Yao's injuries were unimaginably serious, there were scars all over his body, there was no good skin and flesh, and the internal injuries were also very serious, and he even had to gasp three times after taking two steps.

Not only that, Ling Yao's eyes were already invisible at that time.

This kind of Ling Yao is painful to look at, but Ling Yao doesn't care about it.

Xu Li couldn't forget the first time he saw Ling Yao, who was sitting on the smoothest stone slab at the bottom of the cliff, his feet in the stream treading water, and the whole person was basking in the sun very easily.

No one could see that this was an avenger who had stirred up the bloody storm in the rivers and lakes, and no one could realize that this person was a famous killer.

He looked at Ling Yao's infinite sourness in his heart, after going through so much, she seemed to be able to face herself calmly.

At that time, Ling Yao had not completely lost her memory, she still remembered who she was, and she vaguely remembered some things.

It was not easy for Xu Li to gain Ling Yao's trust, and at first Ling Yao was reluctant to go to the Hades Palace with Xu Li.

It's just that Ling Yao's memory loss symptoms worsened too quickly, and one day when he and Xu Li were still talking, he suddenly fainted.

When she woke up again, Ling Yao didn't remember anything.

Xu Li took Ling Yao back to the Underworld Palace, wanting to take good care of Ling Yao and heal Ling Yao.

Ling Yao's flesh injuries healed quickly, and her internal injuries were slowly improving.

But he never remembered the past, and his eyes still couldn't see.

"Yaoyao, do you want to know the story about you?"

After a long time, Xu Li finally opened his mouth.

"Hmm."

Ling Yao nodded, she knew that this was Xu Li's relent, because Xu Li never wanted to say too much about her past.

Xu Li briefly talked about Ling Yao's life in the past 20 years, and tried to be as objective as possible.

"I was pretty good before that."

There was a faint smile on the corner of Ling Yao's mouth.

She didn't ask for more details about how she became an orphan, nor did she ask how she joined the Seven Star Tower to become a killer, or even why Xu Li was alive in the Southern Regions.

Yaoyao...... Don't you blame me? ”

Xu Li's voice was a little low, and it was difficult to hide his sadness.

"It's always good for someone to live, better than to die at that time."

Ling Yao smiled and shook his head, it was a catastrophe, the more people who could survive, the better.

What's more, Xu Li is not greedy for life and afraid of death, but just lucky.

For so many years, Xu Li has not forgotten what happened back then, and when he knew that Ling Yao was alive, he had the intention of taking Ling Yao to the Hades Palace.

But the owner of the Seven Star Building refused, and Ling Yao had already grown up at that time, so Xu Li didn't force his move.

When Xu Li knew that Ling Yao had started to take revenge, he didn't go to Ling Yao because he was in a good mood.

Xu Li knew very well in his heart that he would be a great support to Ling Yao by standing behind Ling Yao publicly, but it would also make those who were originally neutral or even facing Ling Yao fight against Ling Yao.

He knew that Ling Yao would come to the Southern Regions sooner or later to find those three people for revenge, yes, as early as a few years ago, he had already found out that someone in the Hades Palace was also involved in that massacre, and he had not made a move, he was just waiting for Ling Yao's bloody enemy.

Originally, everything would not go wrong according to Xu Li's calculations, and Ling Yao didn't need to be injured like this.

But who would have expected that Xu Li's breakthrough period had arrived, and he had to retreat and cultivate.

Although Xu Li's cultivation method is very strong, it is also flawed, and if he can't break through smoothly this time, he is afraid that his life will be lost.

Xu Li calculated the time before entering the customs, so that he would not miss Ling Yao's move in the Southern Regions.

But it was at that time that Ling Yao made a move, and he was also seriously injured.

"If I hadn't been out of customs a little late, you wouldn't have been hurt like this."

Until now, Xu Li can't forgive himself, if he doesn't even save their children, what face does he have to live.

"It's not your fault, it's not your fault, it's you who found me and brought me back to take care of me. I had a good appetite during this time, except for my bad appetite. ”

Ling Yao comforted Xu Li in a warm voice.
