It's time.
Nobody expected it to end like this, or rather, nobody expected it to begin like this.
Liu Jing, who was kneeling on the ground, brushed away the dirt on her knees and wrapped her hand around Ye Zichen's arm out of habit.
Her face was still stained with blood. The tears that had not been dried by the wind shone unusually brightly under the sunlight.
Seeing that, Cui Twelve couldn't help but turn his head.
For me!
Was it really worth it?
"Let's go."
Liu Jing wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and returned to her usual smile.
"I can't stay here with you for too long. I told Big Sister Lin Ru that I can only stay here for half a day."
Liu Jing smiled sweetly as if she didn't care about what just happened. It was as if she hadn't knelt on the ground and begged.
She only begged for half a day.
Ye Zichen didn't want to ask anything else. Everything had already happened, so there was no need to bring it up.
But he didn't understand. There was no need for that!
It's not like we'll never meet again. Why did she have to do something like that?
"You …"
Ye Zichen couldn't help but speak up.
"What did I do?" Liu Jing squinted her eyes. "Just let it go. I just want to spend half a day peacefully with you without anyone bothering me."
"Uhm …"
At that moment, the Jade Emperor reached out his hand.
Because of Liu Jing's kneeling just now, he was scared silly. She was the God Realm's envoy. He had personally witnessed how strong she was.
Yet, she actually knelt just now …
This scene was so shocking that he actually forgot what he had been thinking about on the way back.
The ley line!
After witnessing how strong the people of the God Realm and Demon Realm were, he wanted to ascend to the place of his dreams even more.
He wanted to be like Sid of the Demon Realm and Liu Jing of the God Realm, who could cause the heavens and earth to change color with just a wave of their hands. Of course, he could …
But this was still a lower realm.
There was a saying that one would rather be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix.
But a phoenix was a phoenix. Even if it was just a tail, it was still the tail of a phoenix. How could it be compared to the head of a chicken?
His ambition had been there from the beginning to the end.
What's more, was he going to be the tail of a phoenix his entire life?
He didn't believe it.
"Hmm?"
Before Ye Zichen could speak, Liu Jing's eyebrows were already knitted together.
Someone actually dared to disturb her and Ye Zichen at a time like this. She felt … very displeased!
The Jade Emperor swallowed his saliva subconsciously when he sensed the unfriendly gaze.
"Envoy, do you still remember what I discussed with Brother Ye before I left?"
"What is it that you can't talk about after I leave?" Liu Qing shouted.
"Alright." Ye Zichen reached out and rubbed her head, then smiled and pointed at the ley line. "The ley line is in the direction of the Valley of Death. Go with the Great Emperor."
He knew very well how eager the Jade Emperor was to break through, so he pointed out the location.
The Jade Emperor knew the location of the Dragon Vein as soon as he descended to the Lower Realm. He didn't go there directly because he was afraid of Liu Qing. No matter what, this envoy seems to have a complicated relationship with Ye Zichen.
Now that he had gotten the approval, how could he possibly hold back? Without even thinking, he headed toward the Dragon Vein.
"Brother Ye, I'll go too."
The Great Emperor wasn't in as much of a hurry as the Jade Emperor. He only left after seeing Ye Zichen nod.
"I've heard of the wonders of the ley line in the God Realm. I'll go take a look as well. I'll come and get you when it's time."
Cui Twelve's words were clearly directed at Liu Qing. Liu Qing nodded with a smile and watched him leave.
However, Ye Zichen frowned, but didn't say anything.
"Those annoying people are finally gone. It's just the two of us now. I'm telling you, I want you to stay with me for the next half a day. You can't go no matter who comes looking for you, okay? "
"Mhmm."
"Mhmm what? I'm asking you if you know!" Liu Qing snorted proudly.
"I know. I promise you, my half a day is yours no matter who comes looking for me," Ye Zichen smiled.
"Okay."
Half a day was actually very short. It was so short that they didn't even notice it.
Ye Zichen kept his promise and gave all his time to Liu Qing. She followed him through the beautiful mountains of the Immortal Region and laughed with him.
When they got a bit tired, they decided to stop at the top of a mountain.
Liu Qing leaned her head against Ye Zichen's shoulder and watched the setting sun.
Whoosh …
"Little Seventeen, it's time. We should go back."
Cui Twelve's arrival shattered the warm atmosphere. Liu Qing, who had a red flower on her head, seemed to have woken up.
When she saw Cui Twelve behind her, the smile on her face suddenly turned into a heart-wrenching sadness.
"Time's up?"
"Mhmm."
Cui Twelve's heart ached, but he still nodded firmly.
Liu Jing, who was at the edge of the cliff, stood up, then Ye Zichen also stood up.
Liu Qing said helplessly, "Time passed so quickly. I thought it would be a long time."
"How long can half a day be? Hurry up and come with me. You only have twelve hours with that person, "Cui Twelve said coldly.
Liu Qing nodded vigorously, then turned around with a smile, "Alright, let's go," Cui Twelve said coldly.
"Time's up, I won't be accompanying you here."
Time's up!
Since when were they so punctual?
Even if Lin Ru is the Master of the Law, it doesn't matter if it's earlier or later based on our relationship.
"If you want to stay here, I can go and talk to Lin Ru."
"No need, time's up."
Liu Qing shook her head with a smile, then opened her arms.
"Can you hug me again?"
Ye Zichen pulled her into his arms, while Liu Qing, who was leaning against his chest, exerted more force, as if she was trying to fuse her into his body.
"Little Seventeen, time …"
Cui Twelve reminded her of the time as if he was rushing her.
Liu Qing, who was in Ye Zichen's arms, took a deep breath, then pushed Ye Zichen away.
"I won't be staying here any longer. You have to be good without me backing you up in the future. Don't keep messing with people you can't beat."
"As long as the people from above don't come, I can sweep through this place, okay?"
Ye Zichen smiled casually, then reached out to caress her hair.
"If you miss me, then come down and take a look. If it's not convenient, then wait for me to ascend to the God Realm to find you. "
"Sure, don't lie to me," Liu Qing smiled happily with her hands behind her back.
"Why would I lie to you? If you don't believe me … pinky promise?"
Ye Zichen reached out his finger as he spoke. Liu Qing's eyes instantly turned watery. She forced herself not to let the tears fall from the corner of her eyes and put her finger on it.
"Pinky promise."
She wanted time to stop there so much, but time had to pass.
Under Cui Twelve's urging once again, Liu Qing finally put down her hand and waved towards Ye Zichen with a smile, then slowly walked away.
However, when she was halfway there, she suddenly shook her head. She'd already made up her mind, then yelled and ran towards Ye Zichen's direction. "You're right.
