The candles in the room flickered and danced, reflecting the light and dark of the faces of the two people.

Suddenly, the oil of a candle flame made a popping sound due to the high temperature, which woke Xie Yuci's thoughts.

He came back to his senses in a daze, and saw that Zhuo Qingtan was still looking at him with a serious expression.

Xie Yuci was silent for a long time, and finally put down the scroll in his hand and asked:

"Are you serious?"

Zhuo Qingtan bowed her head slightly, a wisp of green silk hung down on her chest with her movements, and she looked at him with a light smile.

"'Xie Xianjun', does it look like the kind of person who likes to joke and fool others?"

Xie Yuci looked at her and didn't speak for a while.

After a while, he said slowly: "Zhuo Qingtan, I'm not joking with you.

Can you really let go of the mission of the Immortal Sect disciples to eliminate demons and defend the Dao? Let go of the responsibility of the head disciple of the Duanxu Palace Palace? And then live in seclusion and do not ask about the world?

Frankly speaking, if Xie hadn't been stupid, he wouldn't have believed this. ”

"I can."

Zhuo Qingtan nodded lightly, although her movements were very light, they were very solemn.

And her gaze did not dodge in the slightest, she just looked straight at Xie Yuci, and then smiled freely.

"The Hundred Schools of Immortal Sect don't need a monk who has lost all his cultivation and can't get rid of demons, and Duanxu Palace doesn't need a palace with no spiritual power and criticized deeds. It's just that I don't know yet."

She turned her head and smiled softly, rarely with a touch of coquettishness.

"It's just that I still don't know if 'Xie Xianjun' is willing to live next to a person who is useless and can't even make fire well without the immortal sect."

Xie Yu looked at her for a while, and did not reply for a while.

He seemed to want to see through her facial features the truest thoughts in the depths of her mind.

After a moment, he suddenly looked at her quietly with heavy eyes, and then asked slowly:

"So, why is this person me?"

Even if she Zhuo Qingtan was not needed by the Hundred Families of Xianmen and Duanxu Palace one day, she became their "burden";

Even if she really wants to retreat to the mountains and forests and live in seclusion...... Why did you choose to be with him?

After all, from her point of view, they have only known each other for more than a month.

What's more, he is still such a suspicious person, and she has been injured and sick three times, why would she invite him to retire with him?

This, unreasonable.

Zhuo Qingtan smiled, and she blinked slightly.

"Because 'Xie Xianjun''s rice is very good, and it happens that the four bodies are not diligent and the grains are not divided.

Zhuo wants to find a reliable neighbor, I don't know if this is a reason? ”

Xie Yuci glanced at her lightly.

"If you don't want to tell the truth, then we won't have anything to say."

Zhuo Qingtan paused slightly.

She looked at him in silence and finally sighed softly.

"So, if you say that the moment you saw Gongzi Xie in Immaculate Town, you felt that you were very familiar and cordial, is this a reason?

Maybe there is a real fate between us, but I don't know. ”

Xie Yuci was slightly stunned when he heard this, he glanced at her very lightly, and then turned his head away.

In fact, what Zhuo Qingtan said was her true words, not perfunctory lies.

In the Flawless Inn in Flawless Town, when she first ordered An Luofu to help and stop Yu Fengnian's murder, due to the distance and her limited eyesight, and Xie Yuci's messy hair covering her face at that time, she actually didn't see Xie Yuci's face clearly.

But when she visited the surroundings of Sufeng Valley for the first time in vain, she returned to her room with her food and met Xie Yuci for the first time in real close......

She was stunned, and an inexplicable strange feeling arose.

Although she had no memory of her previous life at that time, she never recognized Xie Yuci's face.

But at that moment, she was very surprised.

was not only surprised by Xie Yuci's unruly appearance and bearing, but also because the moment she looked at him, it seemed that something suddenly alarmed her naturally inconspicuous and long-dormant affection.

She didn't understand it then, but now she does.

It turns out that some people should be implicated as if they were born like fate, just like she and Xie Yuci.

Xie Yuci was silent for a moment, then suddenly lowered his head and smiled mockingly.

"Zhuo Qingtan, do you know that there are many kinds of fate in this world? Some are good karma, and some are evil karma.

Even if your delusion makes you feel that you and I have a thin relationship, then how do you know whether the fate between us is good or evil, and I am close to you, is it good or malicious? ”

He turned his head to her with burning eyes and continued, "Strange to say, I was very puzzled before

Actually, Miss Zhuo obviously suspected that I entered Sufeng Valley with you from the beginning, not because Cai Yu Mei happened to accidentally enter it, right?

That's why you have repeatedly tempted me in the secret realm of Sufeng Valley.

They even want to isolate me in a small barrier so that I don't cause any other mess for you.

You always suspected that I had other intentions when I went to Sufeng Valley, and you also informed the pavilion master of Pingjin Pavilion and the little disciple named Yu Fengnian of your suspicions.

But why, on the day of the Moon Worship Festival on August 15, when I was exposed in Yanzhou Mansion that was not like the divine power of the mortal world...... When those people in the Immortal Sect next to me mistook me for the Heavenly Realm Immortal Monarch, you didn't ask a word? Do you also believe that I am a 'fairy king'?

I don't believe you believe it, because I can also feel that you have never regarded me as an immortal monarch in the Nine Heavens. ”

He looked at Zhuo Qingtan's eyes fixedly.

So, why?

Since you didn't treat me as a Heavenly Realm Immortal, why didn't you ask me about my true identity?

- Or do you already know something? ”

Xie Yuci looked at her thoughtfully, his gaze sharp.

Zhuo Qingtan shook her head and smiled, she waved her cloud sleeves lightly and glanced at him lightly.

'What?' Xie Xianjun', could it be because I didn't respect the Immortal Monarch like the other Immortal Sect elders and disciples, so the Immortal Monarch felt a little uncomfortable in his heart? ”

She smiled faintly.

"My attitude towards you is the same as usual, because I told you a long time ago that I have no reverie in this life to seek immortals, let alone the extravagant hope of ascending to the heavenly realm as an immortal.

Therefore, Xie Xianjun, whether you are an immortal or a mortal, in fact, there is no difference to me. ”

Xie Yuqi looked at her steadily, as if he wanted to figure out what she really thought.

"That's it?"

"That's it."

Zhuo Qingtan smiled lightly and said again: "Otherwise? Since I am a free guest in the world, and I have never violated the way of heaven or made mistakes, so if I want to come to this life, I will go to the reincarnation of the nine shadows.

At the end of my life, I will have nothing to do with the Heavenly Immortal Monarch from now on, so why do I need to beg you, the Heavenly Immortal Monarch? ”

"Yes and no, you say?"
