Jun Wu Xie sat in the dungeon, the surroundings dark and damp. Occasionally, the sounds of cursing and crying could be heard from the other cells, men and women, filled with despair and resentment.
The voices lingered in Jun Wu Xie's ears. She just sat there quietly, seemingly not connected to this hopeless place at all.
"In this place, how long do you intend to stay?" A languid voice drifted in from outside the cell.
Jun Wu Xie raised her head and looked at Jun Wu Yao standing outside. He had his arms crossed over his chest, leaning against the old wooden pillar, his head slightly tilted as he looked at Jun Wu Xie just a short distance away.
"Destroy this place and I will leave." Jun Wu Xie said expressionlessly.
Jun Wu Yao raised an eyebrow slightly as he looked at the dirty and dilapidated dungeon, the disdain in his eyes could not be any more obvious.
"Destroy it ….." The corners of Jun Wu Yao's mouth curled up slightly as a ball of black mist ignited on his fingertip. Under the dim light, the ball of black mist looked eerie and terrifying, filled with the omen of death.
Jun Wu Xie said: "I want to do it myself."
"Why go through so much trouble?"
"You have things that you need to do and so do I." Jun Wu Xie said calmly. She knew very well just how powerful Jun Wu Yao was. Not to mention the Shadow Moon Palace, even the most powerful among the Twelve Palaces, the Flame Demons Palace, was just like an ant before him. With just a slight twitch of a finger, he could send them straight to Hell.
But this was not the result that Jun Wu Xie wanted, and it was not a method that she could accept.
What she wanted, what she wanted to do, was to use her own abilities to accomplish it, and not to hide under Jun Wu Yao's wings to seek protection.
Jun Wu Xie felt very fortunate. Although Jun Wu Yao was powerful, he respected her will and would never do anything that she could not accept. He had always respected her decisions.
In fact, the reason why she did not want to borrow Jun Wu Yao's power was because Jun Wu Xie had another layer of consideration.
It was true that Jun Wu Yao was very powerful, but Jun Wu Xie had not forgotten the rumours that had once spread throughout the Middle Realm, the rumours about the fall of the Dark Emperor. With Jun Wu Yao's might and the prosperity of the Dark Regions back then, just what kind of person would have the ability to imprison him in that dark cave that never saw the light of day? That was a point that Jun Wu Xie still could not understand. The only thing she could be sure of was that the enemies that Jun Wu Yao was going to face, were not people that the current her would be able to handle.
Although Jun Wu Yao had never mentioned anything about himself, but Jun Wu Xie could vaguely feel that he had his own reasons for not returning to the Dark Regions for so long. When he was in the Lower Realm, he had disappeared from time to time and it must have had something to do with this matter. He had been hiding the news of his survival.
Although Jun Wu Xie did not know what kind of person Jun Wu Yao was trying to hide from, but she knew that if it was someone that even Jun Wu Yao had to be wary of, it would definitely not be a simple character. She did not want him to make a move in the Middle Realm because she did not want him to expose himself too much because of her, which would bring disaster upon him.
She wanted to become stronger, not just for herself, but because she hoped that one day, if Jun Wu Yao was to face his enemies, she would not only be able to stand behind him, but would be able to stand by his side, to fight against those calamities together with him.
He protected her when she was weak.
She longed to become stronger so that she could fight alongside him in the future and face danger together.
All of this, Jun Wu Xie had never mentioned it before, but this obsession had long been deeply ingrained in her heart.
