She lowered her head and planted a gentle kiss on Xiao Xun 'er's ice-cold face. Her eyes grew even gentler and warmer.
"Xun 'er, from now on, we'll never be separated again! I'm sorry. If I had known that this would be the outcome, I would have spent more time with you. "
Just as Gu Ruoyun was comforting the little fellow who was in a deep sleep, there was a sudden movement at the door. Her sensitive nerves immediately tensed up and she held the little boy in her arms tightly.
"Who's there?"
Bang!
A hand pushed the door open and a figure in crimson and purple rushed in. When he saw the delicate and pretty woman sitting at the head of the bed, his purple eyes filled with joy.
"Little girl, I've finally found you."
The man's appearance caused a light to appear in Gu Ruoyun's despairing eyes. She quickly rose to her feet with Xiao Xun 'er in her arms and walked towards the purple-robed man.
"Zixie, you're still alive! Where's Xiao Ye? Where's Xiao Ye? "
Zixie's handsome features froze. He carefully glanced at Gu Ruoyun and said, "I'm sorry, little girl, I couldn't protect Qianbei Ye. He's already passed away …"
He's already passed away.
Those words pierced fiercely into Gu Ruoyun's heart and caused her already numb heart to ache even more. She staggered back and gently closed her eyes.
The Four Divine Beasts had left her. Her parents and Xiao Xun 'er had all left her. Now, even Qianbei Ye has …
Since the people she loves the most have left her, there was no longer any meaning in her remaining in this world.
"Zixie, I'll break the contract with you and return you your freedom. Find a place to hide and don't show yourself no matter what happens. Don't worry about the survival of the mainland or anyone else. You must survive."
Gu Ruoyun's eyelashes gently trembled. She had once said that if Zixie was in danger, she would risk her life to save him. However, when it came to Qianbei Ye, she had chosen to stay by his side for the rest of her life.
Even if he dies, she would not drag out an ignoble existence.
"Little girl, what are you doing?" Zixie quickly grabbed Gu Ruoyun's hand as a sense of worry appeared on his handsome face.
Gu Ruoyun laughed bitterly. Her smile showed that she was unafraid of death. "I want to perish together with Cang Ming! Even if my death can't kill him, I will cut off one of his arms as a sacrifice to the people I love! Zixie, there's no need for you and your companions in the Ancient Divine Pagoda to take this risk with me. It's not worth it. Now, I'll grant you your freedom. From now on, you will no longer be bound by the contract. "
Gu Ruoyun then gently closed her eyes. She wanted to erase the seal of their contract from her soul. This way, Zixie would regain his freedom.
Her death would not drag him down with her!
When Gu Ruoyun had closed her eyes, she did not notice that a strange light had flashed across the purple-robed man's eyes. His hand had already landed on Gu Ruoyun's back and a sharp longsword suddenly appeared in his hand...
Gu Ruoyun, who was wholeheartedly focused on erasing the mark, did not notice anything and continued to close her eyes. She had great trust in this man who had accompanied her for several lifetimes.
That kind of trust could not be shaken by anything!
Thump!
Just as Gu Ruoyun was about to erase the seal of the contract, a white light flashed and her tiny body suddenly crashed into the man in front of her. The man was caught off guard and stumbled back. The dagger in his hand fell to the ground with a clang.
Squeak, squeak!
The little fellow placed its hands on its hips and stood on Gu Ruoyun's shoulder. It cursed angrily at the purple-robed man as its eyes spat fire.
"Mengmeng, you're still alive?"
A sense of joy flashed in Gu Ruoyun's eyes when she saw the little fellow's appearance. She then noticed Zixie's longsword on the ground and was slightly shaken.
"Zixie, what are you doing?"
The purple-robed man did not reply. His eyes were fixed upon the little thing on Gu Ruoyun's shoulder as he asked casually, "Why are you here?"
Why are you here?
Gu Ruoyun was shocked. She then furrowed her brows and a deep sense of thought flashed in her eyes. She, who had been blinded by anger, finally sensed that something was not right at this moment...
Zixie could not possibly hurt her. Besides... When she had gone to the Underworld, Mengmeng had saved her from an illusion. That is to say, the illusion was ineffective against this fellow.
An illusion?
Gu Ruoyun suddenly came back to her senses and remembered the instructions that Qianbei Ye had repeated to her three times …
No matter what, she must not believe everything that she sees!
