The Assassin's initial resentment was quickly attracted by Tian Ling 'er, who was beside Sorrowful Green Silk. No wonder Sorrowful Green Silk went to welcome Ling' er! That's right, why would Sorrowful Green Silk be interested in that bug?
The Assassin quickly adjusted his state of mind, no longer paying attention to Zhong Shan. Instead, he stared at Sorrowful Green Silk, but deep down, he was wary of Zhong Shan.
Zhong Shan was waiting for Inglan, and Sorrowful Green Silk and Tian Ling 'er were also waiting for Zhong Shan. Hence, they did not travel very quickly, but it did not take long for them to arrive at the peak of the mountain where the Assassin was.
The Assassin had been watching the group of people. Inglan was wrapped in a black robe, but her speed was obviously not even at the Innate Realm. No matter who it was, he did not need to pay much attention to her. However, why was Tian Ling 'er here?
"Eldest Senior Brother!" Tian Ling 'er called out with a joyful expression.
Perhaps it was because of the pillar of faith in her heart, but even though the Assassin's glory was fading in Tian Ling 'er's heart, as long as there was a little bit of it left, Tian Ling' er still had a kind of worship for the Assassin. Although it had been toned down a lot, seeing the Assassin still made her excited.
The Assassin looked at Sorrowful Green Silk, then at Tian Ling 'er, and said, "How did you find this place, Tian Ling' er?"
"I … I heard that someone from the Mizar Sect died, so I was a little worried, so I asked Zhong Shan to bring me here," Tian Ling 'er said shyly. Thinking back to the terrifying encounter with Immortal Miao, it was all worth it.
"Ling 'er is worried about Eldest Senior Brother, right?" Yunqian immediately teased.
Yunqian was joking, but Tian Ling 'er was not angry. Her face turned red, and it was obvious that she was shy.
Sorrowful Green Silk looked at Ling 'er, then at the Assassin, and revealed a look of understanding.
Seeing Sorrowful Green Silk's expression, the Assassin was immediately annoyed. He frowned and reprimanded Yunqian, "What are you talking about? That person is dead. Why aren't you going to collect the treasures?"
"Alright, this Sect Leader's storage bracelet must have more Sumeru Stones than ours. Let's go," Yunqian called out to the other Junior Brothers..
The crowd of Rising Sun Sect members quickly rushed over to the corpse.
.................... Ling... Ling... I...... Everyone can see that. Ling........ She............ hopes........... and.......................
.. Hearing Zhong Shan's words, Tian Ling 'er's heart tightened. Was Zhong Shan confessing to the Assassin on her behalf?
Tian Ling 'er had wanted to say what Zhong Shan had said for a long time. She had also wanted someone to say it for her, but she was reserved. She didn't say it, and it wasn't easy for her to confide in others. Now, Zhong Shan had said it, but Tian Ling' er didn't know why. She didn't want Zhong Shan to say it for her. Anyone could do it, but not Zhong Shan. She didn't even want Zhong Shan to know that she loved the Assassin.
Tian Ling 'er felt very stifled, but she still stared at the Assassin. Her faith in him was too deeply rooted.
Many times, Tian Ling 'er imagined confessing to the Assassin at a certain time, and then excitedly waited for the Assassin to nod. However, when the moment came, Tian Ling' er didn't feel as excited as she imagined. She hoped for the Assassin to nod, but she also had a vague feeling that the Assassin would shake his head.
Tian Ling 'er looked at the Assassin just like that.
The Assassin was very annoyed. He looked at Zhong Shan hatefully. How could he not realize Tian Ling 'er's love? However, he had his own plans. His goal was Sorrowful Green Silk. If the circumstances were different, the Assassin could have tactfully asked Tian Ling 'er to let go of this relationship. But now …
"Yes, almost everyone in the Kai Yang Sect knows about Tian Ling 'er's heart." Sorrowful Green Silk saw Zhong Shan persuade the Assassin and nodded as well. It was as though today was the day that they were destined to be Dao companions.
The Assassin was already feeling depressed. Now, Sorrowful Green Silk's persuasion was like adding hail to snow.
Shaking his head, the Assassin immediately said, "Green Silk, how can you think like that? We watched Tian Ling 'er grow up. Why would I have any thoughts about her? Tian Ling 'er is still young. Her mind is not mature enough. When she grows up, she will definitely find a Dao companion who is a hundred times better than me. "
The Assassin's attitude was reasonable for Sorrowful Green Silk. After thinking about it, she nodded and said no more.
As for Tian Ling 'er, the Assassin's words were like a sharp knife stabbing into her heart. The pillar of faith in her heart collapsed and turned into infinite despair.
Tears. Large amounts of tears flowed from her red eyes. Her originally red face suddenly turned extremely pale. The Assassin's lofty image in her heart seemed to have turned into an evil spirit gnawing at her heart.
Tian Ling 'er got her answer. However, the answer shattered the faith in her heart. The collapse of her faith was like the collapse of heaven and earth. Her surroundings turned black and she felt extremely dizzy. She swayed and swayed as though she was about to fall. The despair of the destruction of heaven and earth suddenly surged in her heart.
However, just as she was about to fall into despair, Tian Ling 'er suddenly felt her right hand tighten. A large, fiery hand grabbed her right hand, and a boundless power surged out from the fiery hand. It quickly filled her entire body, causing her somewhat cold body to suddenly heat up.
As this' energy 'entered her body, Tian Ling' er no longer felt dizzy. Heaven and earth also slowly regained their light.
Turning her head, she saw that Zhong Shan was suddenly standing beside her, looking at her with a worried expression.
Seeing Zhong Shan, Tian Ling 'er's heart unconsciously warmed. His original feelings of despair seemed to have suddenly vanished into thin air. The sun was still so bright. Heaven and earth were not shattered at all. Everything was fine. Without Big Senior Brother, I am still me. Nothing is missing. There is still Zhong Shan, my father, and Xiao Nan 'zi.
When Zhong Shan heard the Assassin's answer to Sorrowful Green Silk, he knew that things were not good. How could Tian Ling 'er take it when the Assassin said that?
Sure enough, tears welled up in Tian Ling 'er's eyes. Her body swayed, as though she was about to fall. Zhong Shan immediately went forward and grabbed Tian Ling' er tightly. It was as though he was giving Tian Ling 'er a surge of energy. As expected, Tian Ling 'er looked much better. Her pale face slowly regained its luster. Her originally empty eyes also quickly regained their focus. Although there were still tears, when he held her hand, everything was going well. Feeling that it was effective, Zhong Shan continued to hold her hand tightly. It was as though he was continuing to instill' energy 'into Tian Ling' er. Little did he know that this invisible energy would forever be branded in Tian Ling 'er's heart.
After the Assassin finished speaking to Sorrowful Green Silk, he saw tears welling up in Tian Ling 'er's eyes. A trace of regret flashed across his eyes. However, he could only harden his heart and say this. It was not that the Assassin did not have any thoughts about Tian Ling' er. It was just that there was a priority now. The Assassin had a big dream in his heart and he could not destroy it because of this moment. Therefore, he could only let Tian Ling 'er down.
Seeing that Tian Ling 'er had lost her composure and was in a daze, the Assassin felt that he had gone overboard. However, what could he do? At this moment, Zhong Shan suddenly went forward and grabbed Tian Ling 'er's hand. With this grab, Tian Ling' er seemed to come back to her senses and slowly recovered.
The Assassin looked at Zhong Shan who went forward to comfort her. For some reason, he suddenly felt a little frustrated. Seeing Tian Ling 'er's condition slowly improve, the Assassin felt as though something that should have been his was gradually leaving him. Moreover, it was something that could never return.
"Ling 'er …" The Assassin looked at Tian Ling' er with a worried expression.
Tian Ling 'er felt much better after being comforted by Zhong Shan. Her tears no longer flowed. She used her inner Yuan to steam them and they immediately dried.
After what happened just now, Tian Ling 'er seemed to have experienced a life and death situation. She seemed to have been reborn and grown up. When she looked at the Assassin again, her eyes no longer had the agitation and despair from before. It was as though she had been enlightened in an instant and had seen through everything. The person in front of her was only her father's eldest disciple, the Assassin.
"I'm fine, Eldest Senior Brother. Thank you. "Tian Ling 'er suddenly revealed a bright smile.
Thank you? The Assassin frowned at Tian Ling 'er. He did not know why Tian Ling' er had changed so much. In just a short moment, it was as though Tian Ling 'er had become a different person.
As for Zhong Shan, he let out a long sigh. This was because Zhong Shan realized that Tian Ling 'er was not pretending to be strong. She had truly let go.
Zhong Shan smiled. While feeling happy for Tian Ling 'er, he also gently let go of Tian Ling' er's right hand.
The moment Zhong Shan let go, Tian Ling 'er suddenly felt her heart tighten. It was as if something had been stripped from her body. Unwilling to let go, she grabbed Zhong Shan's hand and did not let Zhong Shan let go.
Zhong Shan paused. Tian Ling 'er also paused. When she looked down, she realized that she was still holding onto Zhong Shan's hand. Her face suddenly turned red. Looking around, there were countless pairs of eyes staring at them. Tian Ling' er reluctantly let go of Zhong Shan's hand.
Tian Ling 'er's actions were seen by the Assassin. Seeing Tian Ling' er grab Zhong Shan's hand, the Assassin raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhong Shan in surprise.
At this moment, the Assassin felt as though he had been defeated by Zhong Shan. How could this be? How could this be? He shook his head to get rid of that strange thought.
After Zhong Shan let go, he retreated slightly. At this moment, the black-robed Inglan suddenly reached out and grabbed Zhong Shan's left hand.
Zhong Shan looked at Inglan in confusion.
He saw Inglan's finger suddenly writing on Zhong Shan's palm. Zhong Shan's suspicion grew. What's wrong with Inglan? He looked at Inglan's face through the hood of the black robe. Inglan's face, which was covered by the black robe, was also filled with surprise and admiration.
"Is this intentional?"
Inglan wrote these four words on Zhong Shan's palm.
