"Who's friends with you!" Cold Cliffs snorted coldly. He flipped his right hand and used his left hand as a knife, slashing toward Chu Feng's neck. Chu Jingtian grabbed both of Chu Feng's hands tightly. He frowned and said angrily, "What do you mean by that! We've known each other for so long. Every day, we cultivate together, hunt together, eat together … we do almost everything together. Although you can't even be bothered to talk to me, I know you're actually not bad. You stabbed me dozens of times, but none of them hurt my muscles or bones. I used to practice by myself every day. Now that I have someone to accompany me, it feels really good. I, Chu Jingtian, have long regarded you as a partner and a friend. Do you think I'm not worthy of being your friend? "
Cold Cliffs: "…"
Feeling the strength in his hands loosen a little, Chu Jingtian sighed, and his expression became a little lonely. "I know now that your personality was nurtured by your father, but … you're actually much luckier than me. At least you don't have a father now, but you still have a mother. At least you've been with your parents for twenty years … When your father died, you could even send him off … What about me! My parents died when I was very, very young. I still don't know how they died, and I've never seen what they look like. For so many years, I haven't left this place. The only family I have is my grandfather … I'm very envious of you. Do you understand?! "
Cold Cliffs: "…"
"But I still live more easily and freely than you. I'll be nice to whoever treats me well. I'll try to be nice to whoever treats me badly. Because I don't have parents, I don't have the familial love that others have. That's why I crave relationships even more. I cherish every relationship. Although you're not as likable as Brother Ye, you're still the person who's been with me the longest. Why can't we be friends? Friends can help each other, support each other, go through thick and thin together. Do you really not want to have a friend? "
Cold Cliffs shook off his hand and walked back to his straw hut without saying a word.
It was rare for Chu Jingtian to speak so much. Seeing that he was still so heartless, he was so angry that he stomped his feet. "You inhumane ice-block face, see if I don't stab a few holes in your body tomorrow!!"
From then on, Cold Cliffs gained the nickname "Ice Cube Face."
…
Yeh family in Celestial Dragon City.
Oculum led Ye Shuiyao from west to east, facing the wind all the way. He didn't stop for even a moment. In the end, he directly flew over Sky Dragon City and descended to the Yeh family. Because the speed was too fast, the people in Heavenly Dragon City could only see a black shadow pass by. They could not see two people at all.
The two of them didn't make a sound along the way. Ye Shuiyao didn't complain about the cold, nor did she complain about being hungry. She didn't say anything either. Her eyes were sometimes in a trance and sometimes lifeless. She didn't want to believe that she had just opened the door to her heart and given her everything to him. In the blink of an eye, they were separated by heaven and earth. The lingering touch by the stream became the most beautiful moment of her life. It came too fast … and left even faster.
She cried countless times in her heart. It couldn't be what she thought, it couldn't be …
The place where Oculum landed happened to be Ye Shuiyao's small courtyard. It was cold and empty. No one would know that she had returned from Dafeng Country. Originally, she and all the other members of the Yeh family thought that it was impossible for her to return here. This small courtyard that she stayed in for more than ten years had become a memory that she had to bury. Unexpectedly, in just a few days, she returned here again. However, there was no joy in her heart. A few days had passed, but it felt like years, or even decades. Things remained the same, but the people had changed.
She opened the door to her room. It was still the same layout and the familiar smell. Nothing had changed. It was tidy and spotless. She didn't tell her parents that she had returned. She closed the door and hugged Oculum tightly in her arms. "Oculum … stay with me from now on, okay? We'll wait for him to come back together … "
Oculum nodded silently. She could smell his scent from Ye Shuiyao's body. At this moment, she found a new warmth and a new goal.
The door was suddenly pushed open. Wang Wenshu walked in with a worried frown. Since Ye Wuchen went to Dafeng Country the day before yesterday, many people had been sent to catch up with him. They couldn't even see his back. There was no news from him either. She had been worried that something would happen to him. Cleaning up her daughter's room had become one of her daily tasks. It had become one of the few things that she missed her daughter so much.
Suddenly seeing Ye Shuiyao's hazy eyes, she was stunned and didn't recover for a long time. The first thing she thought was that she missed Ye Shuiyao too much and had an illusion. It was not until Ye Shuiyao called out "mother" that she woke up from a dream. She reached out her trembling hand to touch her daughter's face and body to confirm that it was not an illusion. Then, without asking how Ye Shuiyao came back, she hugged her and cried like a child.
Only those who had experienced the separation of flesh and blood could truly understand this kind of bone-deep pain.
After crying for a while, Wang Wenshu asked anxiously, "Yao 'er, why did you come back? Did they send you back for something? Did you meet Chen'Er? He said he wanted to go to Dafeng Country to find you … "
It was a long journey to Tianfeng City. It would take several days even if they traveled day and night. Wang Wenshu didn't think that Ye Wuchen had already arrived at Tianfeng City. However, when she saw Oculum standing beside Ye Shuiyao, she was stunned. Because when Ye Wuchen left, he brought her with him. But she came back with Ye Shuiyao …
Wang Wenshu vaguely felt a little uneasy. She held Ye Shuiyao's shoulder and asked anxiously, "Where is Chen'Er? Did you see Chen'Er? Did he come back with you? "
Ye Shuiyao bit her lower lip and looked away without saying a word.
Her expression caused the uneasiness in Wang Wenshu's heart to multiply. She bit down hard on Yao 'er's shoulder, "Say something, Yao' er. Hurry up and tell me what happened. Did Chen 'er bring you back? Where is he now? Tell me quickly! "
Ye Shuiyao was speechless.
"Could it be … Could it be that something happened to Chen'Er?" Wang Wenshu tried her best to speak calmly as she trembled with fear.
Ye Shuiyao's eyes shook violently. She shook her head and said, "Mother, I'm tired. Let me have a good rest, okay?"
"Tell me what happened first … Tell me!" Wang Wenshu was completely anxious.
"Don't ask me. I don't know. I don't know anything!" Ye Shuiyao pushed her mother out step by step. Then, she closed the door and leaned against it. Her cheeks were stained with tears. She didn't want others to see her crying, even if it was her mother.
Wang Wenshu asked someone to call Ye Wei and Ye Nu back as soon as possible. She worriedly told them about the matter. While they were shocked, they vaguely smelled something special and hurried to find Ye Shuiyao. But no matter how they asked and persuaded, Ye Shuiyao didn't say a word. Even her expression was so calm that it made people's hearts palpitate. In the end, they could only return empty-handed, but their hearts were also covered with a layer of shadow.
They began to wait, and so did Ye Shuiyao.
The Yeh family didn't spread the news of Ye Shuiyao's return, and Ye Shuiyao never left the house. No one knew about it, but Long Yin soon heard about it. He pondered for a long time but pretended not to know, waiting for Ye Nu to explain it to him. But one day passed, two days passed … Ye Nu and Ye Wei didn't mention it to him. Just when he was getting impatient, a shocking news finally spread through Tenryū Province and the entire Tianchen Continent.
Ye Wuchen, a son of the Yeh family in Tenryū Province, traveled thousands of miles to Dafeng Province because his sister was forced to marry the crown prince of Dafeng Kingdom. He broke into the imperial palace, disrupted the crown prince's wedding, and snatched his sister back. The imperial family of Dafeng was infuriated. During the conflict, Crown Prince Feng was injured by Ye Wuchen, the Eldest Princess was killed by Ye Wuchen, and the guardian of the imperial family, the God of War, Feng Zhaoyang, was cleaved in half by him in a one-on-one fight. Exhausted from the battle with the God of War, Ye Wuchen killed the three elders of the God of War and countless palace guards before escaping the imperial palace … However, it wasn't over yet. The emperor of Dafeng didn't hesitate to mobilize tens of thousands of city guards and thousands of cavalrymen. He used almost all the available forces in Tianfeng City to surround and kill Ye Wuchen. Wielding the Fire Sword, Ye Wuchen killed more than ten thousand people while bathed in blood … Finally, exhausted and out of energy, he was forced to the edge of Death Abyss and jumped into it.
Whether it was the God of War or Zhan Wanjun, he only used one arm and held a white-haired little girl tightly in his arms. He was bathed in blood and covered in countless wounds, but the girl was unharmed. At that time, countless people in the imperial palace saw it, including countless city guards. There were too many people involved, and it was impossible to keep the news under wraps. Therefore, from that night onward, everything began to spread at an alarming speed in all directions.
This mythical legend was like a thunderclap that shook the heavens and the earth, shaking the entire Tianchen Continent. In just a few days, almost everyone knew the name of Ye Wuchen. A seventeen-year-old young man had created a legend that killed a "god". Countless people couldn't believe it, and they couldn't calm down. Dafeng Kingdom was shocked, Sunflower Water was shaken, and Tenryū Province was in turmoil. For a very long time, people were talking about the Yeh family. Wuchen, who was once said to be a god in Tianlong City, was now said to be a true god in the entire Tianchen Continent.
