Black mist pervaded the room.
"Xu Ce, you … have you liked me before?"
Su Wan looked at Xu Ce's eyes and slowly walked over. The two faced each other. Su Wan's long eyes gently swept over the tip of Xu Ce's nose.
His body stiffened for a second. In the next breath, Su Wan had already lifted her arms and hugged Xu Ce.
This hug seemed to have isolated everything around them. Xu Ce's usually astute mind also blanked out for a moment.
"You've already died once."
Su Wan's cold voice suddenly rang in Xu Ce's ears.
Xu Ce suddenly snapped out of his trance. The woman in his arms had already straightened, spinning a sharp dagger in her hands.
In the darkness, her gaze was as cold and bright as ever.
"Su Wan?"
Xu Ce looked straight into Su Wan's eyes. "Why aren't you doing anything?"
This was her best chance, a chance like this that she might only have once. In that moment, he really wasn't on guard against her.
"Don't think that I'll be lenient towards you. I just … don't want to do anything."
Su Wan lifted her brows at Xu Ce. "I don't want to owe you anything. Xu Ce, I'm returning your favor this time. We don't owe each other anymore. You can do anything now. I admit that I'm not your opponent. If you want to kill me, do as you please! "
Saying this, Su Wan put away the dagger in her hands, looking like she didn't care at all.
At this moment, the two of them had already heard the sound of a notification.
After Hou Bingning and Hou Bingchen died, there were only six mission enforcers left.
Xu Ce looked at Su Wan's eyes for a long time.
Her clear and cold eyes were still filled with undiminished pride, as well as that unyielding personality of hers.
The person in front of him overlapped with the girl in his memories again.
In the end, Xu Ce turned around without hesitation and silently disappeared into the night.
Until Xu Ce's figure completely disappeared, Su Wan suddenly let out a long sigh. Her fair face was covered in sweat.
"You won the bet."
Another voice rang in the darkness behind her.
"Heh."
Su Wan narrowed her eyes, her expression solemn again. "How could it be that easy to win against him and Su Rui? If it wasn't to cover your aura, would I have risked my life just now? "
"Uh."
The voice behind him paused. "I was worried about your safety and came to help. Who knew I would run into Xu Ce! Fortunately, fortunately! To think that a honey trap would work on him, what a marvelous story! "
Su Wan: … …
"Since you know Xu Ce's weakness, you can go next time, okay? I should go back. I've been out for too long and it would be bad if Su Rui found out! "
"Hey! Did you or did you not … "
Seeing that Su Wan left without hesitation, the figure in the darkness sighed.
Have you recovered your memory or not?! Hey!
Your family's General Su is also quite violent, this Miss can't withstand it at all! Moreover, do you think that honey traps and whatnot can be used by anyone?
If Xu Ce fell for it, he would've been killed by me in minutes, okay?
Sigh, it was such a good opportunity!
Why didn't Su Wan kill him once?!
Forget it, forget it. I won't think about it anymore.
Ye Xin lowered her head and looked at the two corpses on the ground. Today was not without harvest.
She should go back earlier. It would be bad if someone found out about her whereabouts …
When Su Wan returned to her room in the inn, Su Rui was sitting on the edge of her bed with a black face.
Uh.
"Master, why are you here?"
Hearing Su Wan's words, Su Rui lifted his eyes and stared at her face. When he heard the notification from the headquarters, Su Rui immediately rushed to Su Wan's room. She wasn't there.
Su Rui anxiously released his divine senses to sense her location. In the end, he sensed her and Xu Ce's aura.
Thinking of what Xu Ce said during the day, Su Rui was anxious and wanted to rush over. But at that time, Xu Ce's aura suddenly moved and Su Wan's aura gradually calmed down.
Sensing that she was fine, Su Rui breathed a sigh of relief but also felt really angry.
"Come here!"
He waved at Su Wan with a cold expression.
"Oh."
Su Wan walked in front of Su Rui, confused. "Master, you … ah!"
In the next moment, Su Wan was forcefully pulled onto the bed. "Didn't I tell you not to get close to Ye Cheng?"
Seeing the man's cold gaze, Su Wan was dazed. She couldn't help but smile. "I didn't get close to him. I just accidentally bumped into him."
How could there be such a coincidence? She clearly couldn't help but kill him.
Su Rui felt Yun Sheng and Shang Nianhua's aura disappear.
Seeing Su Wan blinking her eyes innocently, Su Rui didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
He really didn't know how to deal with her. He couldn't bear to kill her. Keeping her alive would be a disaster.
"Master."
Feeling Su Rui's hesitation, Su Wan blinked and looked at him blankly. "You're going to … sleep here tonight?"
Su Rui was speechless.
"Ahem."
Su Rui quickly sat up straight and coughed in all seriousness. "Cultivate properly. Don't do anything. Otherwise, even I can't protect you."
"Oh, oh."
Su Wan also sat up and propped her chin on her hands. She stared fixedly at Su Rui. "Master, take care too. I won't be sending you off."
Su Rui: I haven't said that I'm leaving yet. Why are you chasing me away like this?
Under Su Wan's sparkling gaze, Su Rui had no choice but to stand up and quickly leave her room. Until Su Rui's figure disappeared, Su Wan smiled and laid back on the bed. She lifted her wrist and continued to stare at the golden bracelet on her wrist.
"Su Wan, what do you think … love is?"
Su Wan recalled. In that world, the old ghost who had turned into Xu Ce asked her this before he died.
What is love?
Xu Ce, so you also want to know what love is.
It was because of this question and because he risked his life to save her time and time again in that world.
Therefore, Su Wan couldn't do it today.
In the past, she thought that her biggest goal as a mission enforcer was to defeat Xu Ce. She wanted to kill him in the trial. Then, she would truly let go.
But now, Su Wan realized that she was ridiculously wrong.
What had been imprisoning and torturing her wasn't someone else but her own obsession.
Her obsession made her extreme and stubborn.
Actually, as a mission enforcer, Xu Ce only did what he had to do.
Different standpoints, different responsibilities.
Su Wan was also a mission enforcer now. She knew that she didn't have the right to constantly criticize Xu Ce.
Compared to her, the heartless and desireless Xu Ce was the truly pitiful one.
She was able to meet Su Rui. She was able to walk out of her past pain and isolation.
As for Xu Ce?
From the beginning to the end, he had nothing but responsibilities and missions.
Even the most basic human emotions were the greatest luxury for him.
That's right. Su Wan had recovered her memories now. She had vaguely guessed something in Ziyang Sect's illusion. When she broke through to the golden core realm and formed her devil core, the immortal qi in the bracelet not only allowed her to smoothly advance but also allowed her to see Jinghong Fairy's past. It also opened a crack in the seal in the depths of her sea of consciousness.
Over the years, Su Wan had actually gradually recalled some of her memories with Su Rui. Especially after meeting Xu Ce again, she recalled everything.
