The cool breeze was blowing, and a fiery red maple leaf swayed to Liu Ziqi's eyes, and she reached out and gently grabbed the fallen leaf and looked at it, with a shallow smile on her face.

I don't know if he will be in the mansion yet? Liu Ziqi thought to himself, held the fallen leaves on his fingertips in his palm, stretched out his left hand and combed the hair in front of his forehead.

After a few moments, there was a cacophony of footsteps in the hall, and then a man and a woman stepped out of the front hall, followed by several Praetorian guards. The man at the head of the group wore his long hair tied up, and a black suit made him look more heroic and upright, while the woman next to him was dressed in a purple gauze skirt with a Su embroidered brocade shirt underneath, and a golden tassel diagonally inserted into the bun.

"Little sister, why are you here?"

The man at the head was Duan Wuya, the commander of the forbidden army of the Wuwang Mansion, and he was surprised when he saw Liu Ziqi in the courtyard.

"Brother Wuya!"

Liu Ziqi immediately smiled when he saw that the man who came out was Duan Wuya, and ran forward with open arms like a little girl.

Duan Wuya saw Liu Ziqi hugging him, and grabbed Liu Ziqi's outstretched arms with some embarrassment and said, "Little sister, don't mess around!"

"Brother Wuya, what's wrong?"

Liu Ziqi complained suspiciously, only to find that the woman beside Duan Wuya looked a little weird.

"Wuya, do you know?" the woman in purple looked at Duan Wuya and asked, her tone very soft.

Duan Wuya let go of Liu Ziqi's arms and said, "Yi'er, my little sister is a disciple of the Star Picking Academy, and she is also my best friend. ”

After hearing Duan Wuya's words, Liu Ziqi's eyes widened, her mind went blank like a thunderclap, and the smile on her face dissipated in an instant, and her face looked extremely pale.

She finally understood that the relationship between the woman in purple in front of her and Duan Wuya was extraordinary, but she still couldn't believe that the relationship between the two was what she thought in her heart.

"Who is she?" Liu Ziqi clenched his hands and said lightly.

Without waiting for Duan Wuya to speak, the woman in purple smiled and said: "The girl must be the sister Ziqi that Wuya often says, I am Zhao Ruoyi, the lord of Tianle County of Wuwang Mansion, and I am also Wuya's fiancée, since my sister is a good friend of Wuya, then please go to * to talk about it together." ”

Boom –

As soon as the words fell, a muffled thunder exploded in the dark sky, and Liu Ziqi's body trembled, and she stared at Duan Wuya's eyes a little stiffly, wanting to confirm the words of the woman in purple from him.

Duan Wuya finally nodded.

"Heh!" Liu Ziqi immediately sneered, and said lightly: "The county lord misunderstood, I am not good friends with Commander Duan, but I have only had a one-sided relationship, this time I am just ordered by the academy to send medicinal materials to the Wuwang Mansion, and I will return to the academy after sending them, I have to bear the kindness of the county lord, please forgive me." ”

Seeing this, Duan Wuya frowned and said, "Little sister, why do you need to be like this?"

Unexpectedly, Liu Ziqi just smiled contemptuously and said: "Liu Ziqi, a disciple of the Star Picking Academy, congratulates Commander Duan on getting married, I still have important things to do, please ask Commander Duan to receive this batch of medicinal materials as soon as possible!"

"Little sister!" Duan Wuya was a little helpless, and when he saw that Liu Ziqi didn't pay attention to it, he sighed and said to Zhao Ruoyi: "Yi'er, I want to talk to my little sister alone, you go inside and wait for me first." ”

"Okay, I'm waiting for you in the *garden. Zhao Ruoyi looked at Duan Wuya with tenderness in her eyes and nodded, and then walked into the hall.

After Zhao Ruoyi left, Duan Wuya said to the rest of the forbidden guards: "A few of you, move this cart of medicinal materials to the backyard first." ”

"Yes!"

Several guards responded in unison, and in a moment they all picked up the medicinal herbs and left the place.

"Commander Duan, if there is nothing else, I will go to the academy to resume my life. ”

After the medicinal materials were moved, Liu Ziqi turned his back to Duan Wuya and said a word, and walked outside the hospital without looking back.

Seeing this, Duan Wuya shouted, "Little sister, listen to me!"

Seeing that Liu Ziqi did not stop, he followed closely again.

Swish!

When Duan Wuya was only three steps away from Liu Ziqi, a blue iron whip appeared in Liu Ziqi's hand, and it went straight against his neck like a sharp sword.

I saw Liu Ziqi staring at Duan Wuya coldly and said: "Duan Wuya, you remember, from today onwards, there will be no little sister, if you take another step, I will kill you!"

With that, his right hand shook, and the iron whip disappeared again, and a trace of red blood slowly oozed from Duan Wuya's neck.

"Little sister!" Duan Wuya stood in place for a long time and couldn't move, no matter how much he called Liu Ziqi, he couldn't let her leave quickly.

With another thunderclap, the sparse raindrops fell on the courtyard, Duan Wuya let out a long sigh and shook his head helplessly.

"Boundless, destined to disperse, why sigh for how to disperse. I don't know when, Zhao Ruoyi has already held up an umbrella and came to him.

"My little sister is stubborn by nature, and I'm just afraid that she will suffer too much harm because of this. Duan Wuya frowned.

"A word of love, sad to know what you love, if you don't say the knot earlier, wouldn't you mislead her? It is not beneficial to her, it is the destiny of heaven for me to meet her today, I think she will finally understand. ”

"I wish she would understand soon. Duan Wuya sighed for a while, then took the umbrella in Zhao Ruoyi's hand, and the two left the courtyard and entered the house together.

Imperial City Streets

The rain became heavier and heavier, and Liu Ziqi walked on the street in a daze, letting the rain drench her whole body.

After leaving the Martial Prince's Mansion, her heart finally collapsed, tears poured out of her eyes uncontrollably, intertwined with cold raindrops and crawled all over her cheeks, at this time her consciousness was hazy, and the voice she had when she and Duan Wuya first met sounded in her mind again:

"Girl, are you alright?"

"Oh, I'm fine, thank you Childe for helping!"

"Girl, you don't have to be polite, you look like you are new to the imperial capital, do you have any companions by your side?"

"Nope..."

"Oh, alone, where is the girl going?"

"Star Picking Academy!"

"Picking the Stars? Could it be that the girl is going to participate in the election of the new disciples of the Picking Stars Academy?"

"Well, you know the Star Picking Academy?"

"Haha, I'm going there on this trip, the girl has just come to the imperial capital, and the Star Picking Courtyard is far away outside the city, how about you go with me?"

"Okay, thank you so much!"

"Why should the girl be so polite, since you can participate in the election of the Star Picking Academy, you must be extremely talented, if you are admitted to the hospital, you will be a famous demon hunter again, by the way, what is the girl's name?"

"My name is Liu Ziqi, don't be a girl anymore, you can call me little sister!"

"Haha, little sister!

"Then what's your name? Are you going to the Star Picking Academy to participate in the general election?"

"My name is Duan Wuya, and I am going to the Star Picking Academy and flying to participate in the general election, but I will hand over a matter of the Martial King Mansion to a female disciple there. ”

Duan Wuya was the first friend she met when she came to the imperial capital, and it wasn't until she passed the half-year trial that she became good friends with Shen Yu, Lin Xue and several other new disciples who were admitted to the hospital with her.

Four years ago, when she first came to the imperial capital to participate in the election of new disciples of the Star Picking Academy, she was just an ordinary little girl at that time, and she was robbed of her luggage by a group of ruffians as soon as she went to the imperial capital, and there was an edict from the Star Picking Academy in her luggage, if it wasn't for Duan Wuya's help, she would not have had a chance to become a demon hunter.

Before meeting Shen Yu and them, Liu Ziqi and Shen Yu were both in the trial period, and they had not officially become a demon hunter, so she went to Duan Wuya whenever she had time, and gradually, she fell in love with the heroic and upright man.

Duan Wuya just regarded Liu Ziqi as a sister at first, but I don't know when they became veritable lovers, and since then, Liu Ziqi has become more and more dependent on Duan Wuya, no matter how fast she grew up later, in front of Duan Wuya, she has always been like a little girl.

Later, as Liu Ziqi continued to grow up in the Star Picking Academy, she needed to perform the academy's demon hunting missions frequently, so that the opportunity to meet Duan Wuya became less and less, and the most recent time she saw him was a year ago, and they rarely knew each other's situation during this year.

The cold wind was blowing, and Liu Ziqi couldn't help but shiver, the rain had already drenched her whole body. She looked up, and the raindrops poured down from the gloomy sky like slender silver needles, and then melted into her face.

Is this what he calls a knot?

She remembered the letter Duan Wuya wrote to her a few days ago, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, standing in place and staring at her reflection in the water on the road in a daze.

After a long time, she felt that the rain could no longer reach her body, she slowly looked up, and found that a large umbrella was not moving on top of her head, and Shen Yu, who was holding the handle of the umbrella on the side, was already drenched by the rain.

Not long after Shen Yu came out of the Rongguo Mansion and walked, she met Liu Ziqi in the rain, and the umbrella that had been held for her for a long time at this moment.

"You just got injured, how can you get drenched in the rain like this?" Shen Yu said calmly.

Liu Ziqi walked out from under the umbrella and said coldly: "I don't need you to care, why should you be amorous!"

For some reason, Shen Yu concluded that Liu Ziqi behaved like this because of an accident in the relationship with Duan Wuya.

"I'm considered amorous, what kind of affection are you?"

"What kind of love? Hehe, what kind of love am I?"

Liu Ziqi muttered, as if he was asking Shen Yu and himself.

Shen Yu's heart was sour, and he stepped forward and raised the umbrella above Liu Ziqi's head again and said, "The road is still far away, why do you bother to treat yourself like this because of the past few years, is it worth it?"

Boom –

A bolt of lightning tore a huge crack in the cloudy sky, making Liu Ziqi suddenly wake up.

"How many years have you been around?"

Liu Ziqi whispered, his eyes gradually changed from blur to clear, and then walked forward without saying a word, Shen Yu just silently followed behind her with an umbrella.
