"Although we've been apart for 13 years, my feelings towards Dia Wu have never changed. I will use the rest of my life to make up for what I owe you, so … you can hate me, hate me, or punish me … but you can't leave me again. I've already lost Ruo Ruo, so I don't want to lose you too. "Ling Chen hugged her tighter and tighter as he spoke as if he were talking in his sleep.
The Sword Emperor was Xuanyuan Dia Wu. This was something that he was absolutely certain of. After Xuanyuan Dia Wu recognised him, she had been avoiding him, and today, she had resolutely left. He still believed that he was the one who had broken her heart … after all, she had given up her entire life for him, only to find that he was with another girl. This was a massive blow to her. Even if she hated him because of love, it was only right.
When the new city had been in danger, Xuanyuan Dia Wu had immediately appeared to protect it. This proved that she did not simply hate him. As such … he had thought that after saying these words, Xuanyuan Dia Wu's heart would soften, and she would not leave. However, the body in his arms once again started to struggle, and it was even more intense than before.
"I'm not Xuanyuan Dia Wu … she's already dead … I'm not her!"
She struggled with all her might while shouting with all her might. His voice was still hoarse, but it contained sobbing that couldn't be concealed any longer and a despair and grief that was almost heart-wrenching.
Shadissika silently watched from beside Ling Chen. From Ling Chen's words, she could guess what their relationship was, and what had happened between them. Ling Chen's words were filled with warmth and sincerity, and any girl's heart would melt. She had thought that the Sword Emperor would fall, but she never thought that she would struggle even more. She curiously looked up at the struggling figure … suddenly, her eyebrows jumped as a look of shock appeared on her face. She stared at the Sword Emperor for a long time …
"Dia Wu! How could I mistake you for someone else? "
"I'm not her … she already died … 13 years ago … I'm called Feng Xie Yu, not Xuanyuan Dia Wu!"
"Dia Wu …" The Sword Emperor's resistance made him feel quite helpless. Xuanyuan Dia Wu was deeply in love with him, and after being separated for 13 years, even if she was angry, she shouldn't be like this! He hugged Sword Emperor tightly, not letting her break free, and said worriedly, "I know I've let you down, and it's reasonable for you to hate me, but …"
"She doesn't hate you!" The Sword Emperor vigorously shook her head as more and more tears appeared on her face, "Back then, what she faced was your death. To her, that was the cruelest thing in the world, but you didn't die. To her, that was the greatest blessing in the world. What was lost was regained, and what was returned after death. Other than being grateful to the heavens, what else could she blame and hate? That girl called Ruo Ruo, she only has endless gratitude, because she has always been with you. You can live a happy life with her, and she will only be happy and at ease … she can give up everything for you, and even if she hates the entire world, she will never hate you. However … I'm not Xuanyuan Dia Wu … she really is … dead … I'm not her! "
Ling Chen stared in shock, and the strength in his arms slowly disappeared.
Dia Wu didn't hate him … indeed, it had always been him who felt guilty. With Dia Wu's soft and gentle personality, no matter what he did, she wouldn't blame him. How could she hate him?
Even if she hates the entire world, she will never hate him …
Was she really not Dia Wu …
No! She was definitely Dia Wu. There was no mistaking it. But why was it like this … why …
"Are you really not … Dia Wu?" Ling Chen looked at the Sword Emperor with a listless gaze, and his voice was weak and lonely.
After struggling for a while, the Sword Emperor did not leave. She resolutely shook her head, "I'm not …"
"Then … who are you?"
"My name is … Feng Xie Yu." The Sword Emperor's voice trembled.
"Then do you know who Dia Wu is to me?" Ling Chen softly asked as he looked at her.
"… …"
"She's my wife." Ling Chen's voice was soft, his eyes filled with warmth.
The Sword Emperor's body trembled, and tears streamed down her face.
Ling Chen raised his head, his eyes hazy, as if he was telling the sky about the memories that had been buried in his heart for a long time, "That night 13 years ago, Dia Wu hugged me as we bathed in the moonlight. We sat by a small stream for a very long time, and she comforted me the entire time. She told me that I couldn't lose faith in my own life, and that she would use all of her strength to save my life … in fact, when I knew that I was going to die, she took out a red rope, and tied one end to my right pinkie, and the other to her left pinkie."
Ling Chen's vision became hazy. He clearly remembered everything that had happened that night … even if he died, he would not forget it.
"This red rope is the one that Yue Lao used to tie us together. One end of the red rope is connected to you, and the other end is connected to me. Big brother Tian Ya, do you know what this means? Hehe … it means that from now on, I, Xuanyuan Dia Wu, will be big brother Tian Ya's wife. Big brother Tian Ya will be my husband, and we will be together forever. No matter what happens, we will never be separated, and neither of us will be able to leave the other. "
"I, Xuanyuan Dia Wu, am willing to be big brother Tian Ya's wife. I was born on the same day as big brother Tian Ya, and I am willing to die on the same day as big brother Tian Ya. In this life, I will only belong to big brother Tian Ya. Heavens, please bear witness to every word that I, Xuanyuan Dia Wu, have ever said. If I go back on my word, I will be consigned to eternal damnation. Heavens, please bless big brother Tian Ya and I to be together forever no matter what happens. "
He repeated the words that Xuanyuan Dia Wu had said all those years ago. Even though it had been 13 years, he had not said a single word wrongly. This was because this was the most beautiful voice and words that he had ever heard in his life. It was a memory that would never be erased from his mind, and it was the greatest source of support for him during his time in 'Heaven' and 'Hell'.
The Sword Emperor's skinny shoulders trembled, and he desperately tried to stop himself from crying.
"Back then, Dia Wu was still a child, but she was so sincere and sincere towards me, who was infected with a terrifying disease. She swore an oath that she would curse herself, and tied her life to me, a person who could die at any moment. I will never be able to repay her feelings even if I spend the rest of my life. To have a wife like her, even if I have to suffer ten times the pain, I will thank the heavens. "
Ling Chen lowered his head and looked at the Sword Emperor lovingly as a slight smile appeared on his face, "Big brother Tian Ya, become my, Xuanyuan Dia Wu's, husband, and we will be together forever. No matter what happens, we will never be separated, and neither of us can leave the other. This was what Dia Wu said, and she will definitely keep her promise, right … right?"
"But … but I …" The Sword Emperor clutched her chest with her right hand, sobbing uncontrollably.
"Dia Wu and I have already faced each other's deaths." Ling Chen continued to smile as he stretched out his hand and lightly hugged the Sword Emperor's shoulder, "Even death wasn't able to separate us, so what can stop us from being together? I didn't die, and Dia Wu didn't die either. However, Dia Wu is hiding from me. I know that there's only one reason why such a kind girl like Dia Wu is hiding from me, and that is because she's facing some sort of trouble, or something bad has happened to her, and she's afraid that it will affect me … am I right? "
"No … it's not like that …" The Sword Emperor hurriedly shook her head as she weakly retreated.
"Then, is it because Dia Wu doesn't want to be my wife, and doesn't want to be with me anymore?"
"No! It's not like that. "The Sword Emperor became even more panicked as her voice broke.
"If the same thing happened to me, would you want me to leave you like you did, or would you want me to face it with you? Do you think it would hurt you more to face it with you, or would it hurt you more to leave you? "Ling Chen calmly asked.
"I … I …" The Sword Emperor continuously retreated, and could no longer hold back her sobs.
"Even life and death weren't able to separate us. Are you really willing to separate us again because of some small matter? Is this really what you want? Do you want to make yourself sad for the rest of your life, and for me to be sad for the rest of my life? " Ling Chen softly said as he slowly spread open his arms, looking at the Sword Emperor, "If you still think that you're not my Dia Wu, and don't want to be my wife, then you can turn around … if you are my wife, my Dia Wu … come to my side."
The air seemed to freeze for a moment, then was filled with sorrow. The Sword Emperor's shoulders continuously trembled, and her grey veil had long since become wet … finally, under Ling Chen's gaze, which was filled with warmth and desire, her heart completely collapsed. All of her worries were gone, and the only thing left in the world was this figure in front of her.
"Big brother … Tian Ya!"
This cry sounded like a cuckoo crying blood, and was filled with countless emotions, almost shattering Ling Chen's heart … however, this time, it was the voice of a pure young girl, and was no longer hoarse. She leapt towards Ling Chen, and used all of her strength to throw herself onto his chest. She started to cry, her heart breaking and her lungs tearing.
Who knew how much grief and despair she felt when she found out about Tian Ya's death? Who knew how much she had endured all these years? Who knew how much she had suppressed? Who knew how much she had felt when she found out that he was still alive?
Ling Chen gently placed his hands on her back as he closed his wet eyes and smiled. Finally, his Dia Wu was back. No matter what happened to her or around her, as long as she was back, nothing else mattered.
Shadissika also lightly laughed, seeming to be even happier than Ling Chen.
Xuanyuan Dia Wu's cries were heaven-shaking and earth-shattering, as if she wanted to release all of the emotions she had accumulated over the past 13 years. She cried for half an hour until her voice was hoarse, and her clothes were completely soaked in front of Ling Chen's chest. Ling Chen gently hugged her the entire time, not moving or saying a single word, allowing her to release her emotions … to be able to hug Dia Wu like this was something that only appeared in his dreams.
Finally, Xuanyuan Dia Wu grew tired of crying, and her cries died down. She leaned against Ling Chen's chest, listening to his heartbeat as she leaned her body against him … this sort of feeling was something that she had only ever felt in her dreams before.
"You're finally willing to stop crying?" Ling Chen said as he smiled as he lowered his head as he patted her back. He stretched out his hand and touched the hood of her cloak … 13 years, it had been a whole 13 years. He desperately wanted to know how beautiful Dia Wu would be in 13 years.
Just as he touched the edge of her cloak, his hand was grabbed by a hand wrapped in grey cloth.
"Dia Wu, let me look at you, okay?" Ling Chen held her hand, and softly said in her ear.
Xuanyuan Dia Wu did not get up as she said in a faint voice, "Big brother Tian Ya, after so many years, you've become more and more attractive to girls. No wonder there are so many beautiful girls by your side. But … but … if I become an ugly monster, will you still … want me? "
"Haha!" Ling Chen laughed as he asked, "If I become an ugly monster, will Dia Wu still be willing to be my wife?"
Xuanyuan Dia Wu reflexively nodded, "Yes, of course I'm willing, I … I …"
"That's right, my answer is the same as Dia Wu's." Ling Chen gripped Xuanyuan Dia Wu's small hand, "We're husband and wife, and we'll advance and retreat together, share glory and disgrace, go through thick and thin together, and never leave each other. Even if my Dia Wu becomes an ugly monster, even if she becomes a beggar, a cripple, or an evil person, she will still be my Dia Wu and my wife. No one will be able to replace her in my heart. "
Xuanyuan Dia Wu's shoulders once again started to twitch, and the tears that she had thought she had cried dry once again flowed out.
"Moreover, my Dia Wu was already so pretty when she was young. When she grows up, she'll definitely be a great beauty. No matter what, she won't become an ugly monster." Ling Chen said as he smiled. Just as he finished speaking, he felt Xuanyuan Dia Wu's body violently tremble, and an incredibly sorrowful and heartbroken feeling spread out from her body, spreading to the depths of his heart.
Ling Chen's heart skipped a beat, and a terrifying thought appeared in his mind …
Could it be that Dia Wu … she …
Could it be that the reason she had been avoiding him … was because …
