"I followed Zhou Qing and found that he took Zhou Ning away, so I saved them together." Nie Li didn't say why he followed Zhou Qing, nor did he say his guess.
"If it weren't for you, I don't know what would have happened to Zhou Ning." Yang Su Rou rarely said something nice. They had been with Zhou Yue and his sister for so long, so they knew a little about Zhou Qing.
"Big Brother Nie, thank you." Zhou Yue just remembered that he had always been concerned about his sister and hadn't thanked Nie Li for his kindness.
"Don't thank me, it's up to you in the future. Since you will always protect your loved ones, then become stronger!" Nie Li patted Zhou Yue's shoulder. It was rare for him to say so much.
Qin Xinyin trembled. It was obviously an encouraging sentence, but why was his voice so sad? Was it really that important to you to become stronger?
"I will definitely practice diligently and become an expert like you." Zhou Yue seemed to have grown up a lot, not in terms of age, but in terms of spirit. He had become stronger.
"It's okay to become stronger, but don't become someone like me." Nie Li's mouth held a smile. Zhou Yue was a rare person that he had a good impression of. He was quite similar to him.
Nie Li turned and left. From the beginning to the end, he didn't look at Qin Xinyin, nor did he talk to her. Maybe since the end of the song that night, they had become strangers.
He limped towards the corner of the wall. He didn't come in a proper way, so he had to leave quietly. A person like him could only be so sneaky.
Qin Xinyin kept looking at Nie Li. She had a trace of luck in her heart. She thought that he would look at her, even if it was just a glance, but she was disappointed. He didn't. Was his heart really as cold as a knife, as ruthless?
Looking at his lonely back, step by step, disappearing into the corner, Yang Su Rou felt indignant. She didn't expect that her senior sister still couldn't forget him. Were feelings really so powerful? She still didn't know.
She knew that after he left, the two of them might not see each other again. Qin Xinyin's heart was in pain. She wanted to talk to him, even if it was to say "take care", but the words were stuck in her throat.
Nie Li's footsteps were extremely slow, and he was limping. He also wanted to give himself a reason. Perhaps Qin Xinyin would talk to him because of Zhou Ning, and he would also tell her to take care of herself. However, neither of them spoke.
No one knew how long this silence and silence would last, and how much time they would miss each other, and how much they would miss each other, forever imprinted in their hearts.
"Don't say anything stupid in the future. Remember, other than Little Sister Ning, you still have us to accompany you." Qin Xinyin looked at Zhou Yue and patted him on the head.
"I'm sorry, Sister Xinyin, Sister Surou. I spoke too harshly just now. " Zhou Yue's face turned red when he thought of how he looked just now. However, when he heard Qin Xinyin's words, his heart warmed. This feeling made him feel a sense of belonging. Perhaps the Heavenly Sound Valley was not bad either.
Not only us, but you also have him. Qin Xinyin thought in her heart. She could sense that Nie Li had a different feeling towards Zhou Yue. Perhaps they were both struggling people and he wanted to see Zhou Yue grow.
Nie Li didn't leave. He hid in the darkness as he watched the joyous atmosphere in the courtyard. That kind of warmth was something that he would never dare to touch.
He had a different expectation towards Zhou Yue. They were the same. Alone, tenacious and unyielding, they had their own perseverance. However, Zhou Yue was lucky. He had a little sister. He had someone to rely on. He had someone to accompany him.
When his little sister was seriously ill, they met Qin Xinyin. The two of them entered the Heavenly Sound Valley. When his little sister was in danger, they met him. But what about him? When his father was seriously ill, who was there?
Seeing Zhou Yue being doted on by everyone, the coldness in Nie Li's eyes softened. He had high expectations for Zhou Yue. He wanted to see what kind of people they would grow into after experiencing the same struggle and unwillingness.
He practiced demonic arts and was no longer tolerated by the righteous path. But what about him? Perhaps he would become a different him. He would become stronger and become a famous righteous junior.
However, he didn't blame anyone. This was fate. However, he didn't believe in fate. Since there was no one to save him, no one to help him, then he would save himself. He wanted to become stronger. Just like what he said to Zhou Yue, he wanted to become stronger. So strong that people would tremble and fear when they heard his name.
Perhaps at that time, he would be able to protect everything he had, including his own life. What he had, what did he have? He didn't seem to have it! The people who were with him now would eventually leave! Fang Tong, Bai Lu, and Chun Mei.
When he thought of Chun Mei, Nie Li felt guilty. Yesterday morning, he suddenly left her on the boat and left alone. Nie Li was thinking about whether he should go and see Chun Mei.
Since he had such an idea, he would implement it. Nie Li walked towards Chun Mei's residence. After waking up last time, he still had an impression of it. Because of the time, there were very few people.
Walking on the empty street, the doors and windows on both sides were closed. There was no trace of light. It was quiet all around, surprisingly quiet.
"Quick, the people at the back keep up." At the end of the street, there were groups of people with torches in their hands, forming a dark mass. They trotted towards this side. "The people in front get out of the way."
Seeing Nie Li standing on the street, the people on the other side shouted. Nie Li was speechless. He was already standing on the side of the road. How could he get out of the way? Could it be that he had to use his Qing Gong to get out of the way?
Although he could, he didn't want to. Why should he be so obedient? Walking on the street was already giving the other side a lot of face. Everyone went their own way. It was too much.
Seeing Nie Li walking unhurriedly without the slightest intention of giving way, the people on this side also became angry. With so many of them, a spit of saliva could drown him, not to mention their identity. They directly rushed over and trampled him to death.
Looking at the fierce light in the eyes of the other side, that was domineering arrogance, Nie Li felt that he wouldn't be wrong. Looking at their slightly faster pace, the flames of the torches in their hands swayed crazily in the wind.
"Moonlight Blood Plum Blossoms" Nie Li directly pulled out his blade. The bright blade illuminated the eyes of the people on the opposite side and also reflected the fire. The blade light danced, they didn't expect Nie Li to be so ruthless, like a tiger in a flock of sheep.
Every time the saber in his hand was raised, a person would fall. A ball of flame would fall to the ground, burning on the stone pavement. The sound of oil sizzling was reflected in the unwilling eyes of those who had fallen to the side, illuminating the fresh blood.
Fast, extremely fast. So fast that no one had the chance to act. These people all had blades and swords at their waists. At a glance, they were gang members, but they didn't expect Nie Li to be so ruthless. Without a word, he directly pulled out his blade and killed people.
Seeing Nie Li's bloodshot eyes, everyone was afraid. Several Blood Transformation Realm experts couldn't last more than a few rounds before being killed by his strange and beautiful saber arts.
As for those who were weaker, it was as easy as cutting vegetables.
In less than an incense stick's worth of time, half of the mighty people had been killed by Nie Li. His clothes were soaked in blood, and blood beads hung from his hair.
Everyone was constantly retreating. Originally, they were furious when Nie Li killed a few people, but now, they were filled with despair. With every step they took, they would step on the bodies of their companions. The soles of their feet were covered in sticky blood and minced meat.
"Run! He's a devil. " Everyone threw away their torches and ran in all directions. Everyone shouted in horror. The screams rose and fell one after another, making the street like a purgatory on earth.
Nie Li caught up and cut the person he caught in half from the back. Looking at the bloody scene, his heart was still like water, without the slightest ripple. Several people who ran slower were all killed by him in various cruel ways.
The street was quiet again, and the light of the torches became weak. The surroundings fell into silence and darkness again. Nie Li supported himself with his blade, gasping for breath.
He no longer felt any ripples or discomfort in such a scene. It was as if killing these people was something he was used to. This made him feel strange.
He didn't expect himself to become such an executioner. Perhaps he was already a devil. Although he never admitted it, there was a devil in his heart. The devil technique only gave it a chance.
The Autumn Rain Blade in his hand was as bright as new. The blood had already slid down the blade, not a single drop stained. When the last drop of blood flowed out, the flame suddenly went out.
He put away the blade and wanted to go back to the Fang mansion. He knew that it was no longer suitable for him to go to Chun Mei's place tonight, but he still wanted to go and take a look. Perhaps when he made the decision before, it was already impossible to change.
He arrived at Chun Mei's residence. It was a two-story attic. The courtyard was very simple. There were only stone chairs and some flowers. In the attic, the window was wide open. There were already a few plum blossoms on the window. A few petals had already been blown to the railing outside by the wind.
Nie Li quietly came to the window and looked at the plum blossoms that he found under the moonlight. The cut was already dry, but the petals were very bright and had a fragrance. One look and he could tell that it was carefully taken care of.
Standing outside, Nie Li stood quietly. He didn't want to go in. His current appearance didn't deserve to go in. He never looked down on Chun Mei because she was a brothel girl. On the contrary, she was more real. She would play little tricks, she would also risk her life, she would also worry, and she would also have a child-like smile.
"Is it you who came?" Chun Mei's voice sounded in his ear. Nie Li was so nervous that he didn't know what to say. He didn't even dare to breathe.
"You didn't fall asleep?" Nie Li said softly.
"I was originally asleep. I dreamed that you were standing outside the window, so I woke up. I didn't expect it to be true." Chun Mei said as she walked from the darkness towards the moonlight.
She was dressed in a light gauze that wrapped around her graceful body. Her tall figure and delicate face, her sleepy eyes and her smiling face made her look very beautiful.
"It's cold here, you better not get up." Nie Li could already see Chun Mei's white jade-like skin through the moonlight.
"It's cold outside, then why don't you come in?" Chun Mei walked to the table by the window, leaned on her body with her hand, and stared at Nie Li and said.
"I'm a little dirty, so I won't go in." Nie Li didn't want to go in. Chun Mei would definitely be able to smell the strong smell of blood.
"Is there anyone dirtier than me?" Chun Mei said flatly, as if this kind of thing was already common.
"In the future, I won't allow you to say that." Nie Li's voice couldn't help but become fierce and cold. "I have seen what I should see. I'm leaving." Without saying goodbye, he turned around and left.
Picking up a fallen plum blossom, Chun Mei smiled, but tears flowed out.
"I won't allow you to say that in the future. You are purer and cleaner than anyone else." Muttering to herself, she wanted to say it to that person, but he had already left.
