Holy City.
This was Gu Ruoyun's first time walking the streets of Holy City ever since she had arrived at the Ye family home.
It goes without saying that the streets of Holy City were indeed bustling. Most importantly, in Holy City, even the most ordinary citizens had powerful energy fluctuations.
At this moment, in a private room on the second floor of a tavern in Holy City, a man stood silently in front of the window. His golden eyes were slightly narrowed as he gently swirled the wine glass in his hand. His eyes were fixed on the crowd below.
This man was extremely handsome. His facial features were as exquisite as a painting and his fair skin was flawless. His lips were gently pursed and his deep eyes seemed to be thinking about something.
His beauty was not as demonic as Zixie's nor was it as breathtaking as Qianbei Ye's. However, his beauty was heroic and his entire being exuded the domineering air of a monarch. Even if one were to stand next to him, they would feel the urge to submit to him.
Most importantly, this man had a pair of golden eyes. They were so beautiful that it was impossible to look away.
"Yun'er?"
Suddenly, a familiar figure appeared in his line of sight. The man's beautiful and domineering golden eyes suddenly narrowed. With a whoosh, he stood up from his seat. Immediately, his body turned into a golden ray of light and quickly jumped up from the second floor.
At this moment, his expression was no longer as calm as before. His eyes were filled with anxiety.
"It's her? No! That's impossible. I must be seeing things. Yun'er is already dead. She can't possibly appear again. "
As he stared at the crowd on the street, the man's heart slowly sank to the bottom, "She had already died a few years ago. How could she have appeared in the Banished Lands? Besides, if you haven't reached the rank of a Martial Supreme, you won't be able to return from the Banished Lands. "
At this point, the man laughed bitterly, "Perhaps I've missed her too much over the past few years and my eyes have gone blurry. Even her father says that she's dead. Perhaps, she really isn't here anymore."
As he spoke, he took one last look at the crowded street before returning to the tavern.
...
"Hmm?"
On the street, Gu Ruoyun seemed to have sensed something. She slowly turned her head and looked at the street behind her. She frowned, "I seemed to have sensed a familiar aura. Could it be that I was mistaken?"
Gu Ruoyun shook her head at the thought of this and continued to walk forward without looking back.
If she had turned around just now, she would have seen the man flying down from the top floor of the tavern. It was also because she did not turn around that she did not see that figure.
In the private room of the tavern.
As soon as the man sat down, before he could recover from his disappointment, a voice came from the communication token in his hand.
"What is it?"
He frowned and asked.
"Brother Jin, when are you coming back?"
This voice was very soft, and no one would be moved by it.
"After a month."
The man sighed. No matter what, Xia Chuxue was Yun'er's little sister. No matter how much he disliked her, for Yun'er's sake, he could not ignore the Xia family. Otherwise, Yun'er would not be able to rest in peace.
"Alright, then Chuxue will wait for Brother Jin." The voice on the other end of the token paused for a moment, then continued, "Brother Jin, sister is already dead. It's time for you to forget about her."
"Enough!"
The man's golden eyes darkened and he spoke in a cold voice, "Chuxue, it's because you're Yun'er's little sister that I'm protecting the Xia family. I just don't want her family to be destroyed in one day! However, I will never forget the times we've gone through trials and tribulations together! If she's truly dead, I will remember her for the rest of my life. If you say such things again, then from now on, the Xia family's life and death will have nothing to do with me! "
