Luo Ridge was a mountain range that stretched for thousands of miles behind Guan Jia. The terrain was steep and filled with ferocious beasts. Even powerful cultivators didn't dare to rashly invade it. Banishing Guan Heng, a weak youth, to Luo Ridge was almost equivalent to taking his life.
But Xie Ziyou's eyes were shining.
No one knew better than him that with the protagonist's luck, entering Luo Ridge would be like a fish in water. Thousand year Exquisite Grass, Hundred year Intertwined Branches … they were all waiting for the protagonist to pick them.
Although this separation made the protagonist feel dejected, objectively speaking, the protagonist who left his family was actually cutting off a burden. From now on, he could go into battle without any burden and travel freely in the magnificent and boundless world.
Luo County was so small and remote. How could it accommodate a hidden dragon like Guan Heng?
Moreover, the Central Academy was located in the most prosperous central area of the mainland. Only when the protagonist left Luo County and integrated into the bustling world could he arrange for Xie Xiannu to come online and reap the hatred.
As Xie Ziyou thought, he shrank into the green jade bracelet and watched Guan Heng stumble along the bumpy mountain road.
The youth's body was wounded and had not been treated for a long time. Now that the wind and sand had swept over, the fine dust wrapped around the wounds that had not yet healed. The areas that had stopped bleeding began to ache again and fine beads of blood seeped out.
Guan Heng smiled bitterly and lowered his head. He glanced at his clothes that had been cut up by grass and trees and were stained with blood.
As soon as he lowered his head, the dizziness of blood loss suddenly hit him. His vision suddenly blurred and his legs went soft. He almost fell to the ground.
"Guan Heng!"
A clear voice rang in his ears, bringing him back to reality.
Guan Heng pursed his lips and persisted on taking a few more steps.
But his legs became more and more weak. Fatigue surged from his limbs and bones like a surging sea, wanting to smash him into a bottomless abyss.
"Wake up, hey!"
Fang Cai's beautiful fantasy was suppressed by the cruel reality. Xie Ziyou could not continue to plan for the future. He watched anxiously from the bracelet and raised his hand to knock on the edge of the bracelet. On the mountain ridge, the youth stumbled with each step and almost fell off the cliff a few times.
Don't talk about the bustling world, soaring dragons and leaping tigers, the protagonist must not die here before he even achieved victory!
Xie Ziyou also knew that 300 meters ahead, there was a Blood Lingzhi Mushroom growing in a cave. It was an excellent healing elixir.
But knowing was one thing, he could not provide much help. After all, his Goldfinger's design was simple and rushed. Many of its functions were simplified.
Xie Ziyou could only speak frequently to keep the young man awake.
After racking his brain for a long time, he finally thought of a good topic, so he tapped Guan Heng's wrist through the bracelet and said in a clear voice, "You said you have a question for me. What is it?"
Guan Heng blinked blankly.
The scenery in front of him was swaying with heavy shadows, like large patches of ink stains. He was absent-minded for a long time before he slowly responded, "I want to ask … do you have a name that is convenient for me to call you?"
"You can call me … Ziyou."
Hearing this name, Guan Heng was stunned for a moment. He forced a smile and said, "No, no, that's the same name as my wife."
Xie Ziyou said, "… You're about to die. Why are you still thinking about your wife?"
"If you're about to die and your wife is about to die, then you'll suffer a great loss, okay? You might as well tell me that it's a word with the same sound but different, like stain as in stain, greasy as in oil … "
Xie Ziyou was choked by his words and complained, "Who would give themselves such a name?!"
Guan Heng listened to his voice, which had become clearer due to his anger, and couldn't help but lower his head and laugh.
The green jade bracelet on his wrist made a crisp sound, responding to the complaints in his mind. It quietly outlined the image of a youth in front of him. His limbs were slender, his facial features were delicate, and his eyes were lively. He pouted angrily, his lips were rosy, and the curve was perfect.
"Then I'll call you Youyou, okay?" The young man responded to the biting cold wind in the mountains and said softly.
Xie Ziyou said, "… Call me Senior!"
"You you."
"Senior!"
"You you."
"Don't you know how to respect your elders? I said Senior, Senior, Senior! "
"You you, You you's a joke." Guan Heng smiled until his eyes narrowed.
He raised his head and laughed. His hearty laughter was carried away by the wind and drifted in the lonely valley.
For a moment, his voice echoed throughout the mountain range. It was gentle and happy, like jade striking a stone. It was as if every blade of grass and every tree in the mountain was responding to his call. It was the guy he called "You you."
"You you." Guan Heng smiled. Suddenly, a trace of tears appeared in his eyes. He said softly, "I don't have a home anymore."
Ever since he could remember, he had been repeatedly told that he carried the glory of the entire family. He had to be handsome, gentle, optimistic, and know how to be liked by others. He had to be … strong.
The youth worked hard to train and cultivate. He learned the sweet words of the scholar girls in the novels, so that one day, he could please the girl who was in an unknown corner of the world.
Xie Ziyou, Xie Ziyou. This name was deeply engraved in the first half of his life. It was also engraved in the backbone of the entire Guan Jia.
Now he had seen it.
The girl was naturally very good. Unfortunately, she didn't like him.
Simple dislike, in the eyes of the vassals, became the source of disaster.
"My wife wants to kill me. My godsister wants to kill me. My brother wants to kill me. My father … he doesn't want to kill me, but he wants me to be a useless person. He wants me to be locked in a small courtyard for the rest of my life. Out of sight, out of mind."
The youth laughed as he spoke. His eyebrows were curved, but his eyes were extremely dark. Xie Ziyou listened in a daze. His heart was throbbing with pain.
He had seen the protagonist arrogant and powerful. He had also seen the protagonist having one adventure after another. His underlings kowtowed to him, and beautiful women fell over each other to throw themselves at him …
But he had never seen such a weak and desperate protagonist before he became powerful.
He was so pitiful. He almost regretted his actions as a villain.
But it didn't matter. Xie Ziyou comforted himself. Villains would always be defeated.
He couldn't help but control the bracelet and tightly stick it to Guan Heng's skin. He said softly, "It will pass. Everything will pass. There is a saying in my hometown. Everything that can't kill you will only make you stronger. "
So, young man, work hard to become strong. Become a man that I, Xie Ziyou, can't reach!
The mountain wind blew, echoing his words.
Guan Heng's breathing was chaotic. He held onto a huge rock beside him and pressed his back against it.
His vision was blurry. He tightly grasped the Yuhuan in his left hand and couldn't help but say, "You, will you … always be with me?"
Xie Ziyou was silent for a moment. He braced himself and said, "Yes … I will."
Guan Heng chuckled and said, "Liar, you're lying."
"…"
"Forget it." Guan Heng took a deep breath and said self-deprecatingly, "I'm afraid I won't live for long. You should plan ahead and find your next family."
"I think the Zhao Family is a good family. Although our families have been at odds in recent years, I still have a friend in the Zhao Family. That kid isn't very bright. He's easy to coax, but he has a good heart. Moreover, the Zhao Family is rich and powerful. They might have a way to help you rebuild your shell … How about I send you there in one go? "
The veins on Xie Ziyou's forehead bulged. He said angrily, "You better cheer up!"
Find his next family for his golden finger?
How could this guy think of something like that!
"You're ready to die? Are you willing to die? Look at this world — have you seen all the beautiful sceneries in it? "
"Those people who look down on you, bully you, your clansmen … Why should they peacefully enjoy the glory and wealth you bring to them?"
"Swear an oath now. Quickly, swear on your inner demons that you'll become the strongest person in the continent. Then, you'll return home in glory and slap everyone's faces until they're swollen!"
Guan Heng was stunned. "Uh, isn't that a little too arrogant?"
Xie Ziyou cursed loudly, "Arrogant my ass! Put away your salted fish aura for your father! Can't you afford it? Do you believe that I'll slap you? "
Guan Heng smiled bitterly. He thought to himself that this person was really anxious. Otherwise, how could he say something like slapping himself when he didn't even have a body?
However, a warm current gradually welled up in his heart, warming up his stiff and numb meridians.
His exhausted body squeezed out a trace of strength, supporting the young man as he struggled to get up. He looked at the green mountains in front of him and took a deep breath.
"I, Guan Heng, want to become the strongest person in the continent!"
Xie Ziyou thought with satisfaction. This was more like it. This was more like the main character's aura.
However, the next second, he saw the young man take another deep breath. His voice was loud and clear. "Moreover, I want to marry the fairy Xie Ziyou from the Central Academy!"
Xie Ziyou was speechless.
Bastard main character, don't add that last sentence!
The wind was like a distant echo, passing through the desolate valley. The young man's voice was dry and hoarse from exhaustion, but it was full of vigor and power. His aura was like a rainbow, piercing through the blue dome of heaven.
Xie Ziyou was so angry that his lungs were about to explode. He fiercely kicked the edge of the jade bracelet. The jade shook and knocked against the tall rock behind Guan Heng, making a crisp and pleasant sound.
"That girl isn't a good person!"
She's a villain, a villain who'll make you lose face!
Guan Heng's right hand tried to grab the edge of the rock, but he couldn't stop his body from slowly sliding down.
The sharp and rough gravel pierced the young man's fingers, causing him to feel a sharp pain. Immediately, bloody marks appeared on the limestone.
However, he remained calm and smiled. "You haven't seen her before. How do you know she's not a good person?"
What nonsense.
Do you think I don't know the bad things I've done?
Xie Ziyou gritted his teeth and spouted nonsense. "… I know divination, okay?"
Guan Heng shook his head. "It's not very convincing. You might as well say that you're actually her adulterer who's here to harass me and make me give up."
F * ck your adulterer.
Xie Ziyou wanted to twist Guan Heng's head open and see what was in this main character's head.
Has this person never seen a girl in 800 years?
Why does he want to hook up with her when he catches one?
However, he was currently working as a cheat, so he couldn't be involved with the work of a villain. Thus, Xie Ziyou couldn't think of a reasonable explanation for it.
Moreover, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Even if he thought of a way to continue slandering Xie Xiannu, Guan Heng's one-track mind wouldn't listen to him.
Xie Ziyou held his breath and couldn't spit it out. He could only say angrily, "If you continue to be so rude, I won't tell you that there's a Blood Lingzhi Mushroom up ahead."
"Blood Lingzhi Mushroom?"
Guan Heng's eyes lit up.
His knuckles turned white from clenching his fists. Using the rough rock surface, he forcibly propped himself up.
The youth put his left hand behind his back and lowered his head to cough a few times. He raised his right hand to quietly wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth and asked softly, "Where is it? How do you know?"
Xie Ziyou thought angrily, I'm not going to tell you. You might as well bleed to death like this.
However, when he saw the youth's pale face and large beads of sweat rolling down his forehead, he couldn't help but feel sorry for him.
Especially the blood at the corner of Guan Heng's mouth. He hadn't wiped it clean in a hurry, leaving behind a dark red stain. It was so bright that it stung Xie Ziyou's eyes.
"Two hundred meters forward. There's a cave on the right." Xie Ziyou pouted and said unwillingly, "Go quickly. If you're late, you won't be able to save …"
Before he could finish speaking, a large shadow fell from the sky!
Xie Ziyou and Guan Heng looked up at the same time. Blinded by the glaring sun for a moment, they saw a white figure floating down not far away. Her long dress trailed on the ground, and her gauze fluttered in the wind. She was as graceful as a fairy.
The Xie Family Fairy had the same style, but she didn't have flowers on her temples. Her temperament was also much worse. However, if one didn't compare her to the other, her elegant and delicate face was worthy of being called a stunning beauty.
However, the beauty held a long sword in her hand. The mirror-like blade of the sword was cold and dense. The unique cold and hard feeling of an iron weapon hit them in the face. Ice-blue Xuan Qi circulated around it, bringing wind and snow with it.
A whirlwind of air rose into the air, making them feel cold all over.
