"Big Brother, it's impossible for us to be together," the Ice Skeleton said indifferently. "Can't you see that the mage named Xuanri is a girl? She and Dumb are very close, and I'm afraid they've already decided to spend the rest of their lives together. Let's go. " After saying that, she drank the rest of her tequila in one gulp. Feeling the scorching energy radiating from the liquor, the Ice Skeleton's heart was filled with bitterness. She wasn't a superficial person, so she wouldn't judge a book by its cover. After spending time with Dumby, Dumby's character and profound cultivation had moved her cold heart. But she was rational, and she understood everything as she watched coldly from the sidelines.
The Blood Skeleton was taken aback and exclaimed, "What? You said that Xuanri is a woman? Impossible! That's impossible! "
"Nothing is impossible," the Ice Skeleton said coldly. "Although her appearance has been altered and she's wearing men's clothes, I can tell from her occasional female voice and the fragrance on her body that she's a woman. Moreover, she's a beauty who's even more beautiful than me. Coupled with her powerful magic strength, do you think I have a chance? Xuanri is the one who's most suitable for Dumb. I've long decided that I'll spend the rest of my life studying advanced martial arts. Relationships are just a luxury for me. "After saying that, she strode out of the tavern without looking at the Iron Skeleton, who had a grave expression on his face.
After Dumb and Xuanyue left the tavern, Xuanyue quickly pulled him toward the east. Seeing Xuanyue's somewhat gloomy expression, Dumb asked curiously, "Brother, what's wrong? You don't seem happy! Why are you in such a hurry to leave? Once we part ways with Big Brother Blood Skeleton, we may never see each other again. "
Xuanyue let go of Dumb's hand and snorted. "I'm not leaving. I'm afraid you've been charmed by Big Sister Ice Skeleton. Big Brother Dumb, let me ask you, what's my sister's position in your heart? "
Dumb stopped and frowned. "Brother, what's wrong with you? Why did he think of asking this question? Naturally, Yue is my good friend. "
Xuanyue glared at Dumb. A cold glint flashed in his eyes as he asked, "Are we really just good friends?"
Dumb lowered his head and avoided Xuanyue's gaze. A strange feeling rose in his heart. Xuanyue's figure had never disappeared from his heart. He had met many girls, but only the little girl and Xuanyue had left a deep impression on him. In terms of feelings, although he liked Xuanyue more, in terms of reason, he didn't like her. However, he forced himself to place his heart on the lass.
"Big Brother, why aren't you answering me? Do you really only see your sister as a friend? "Xuanyue kept asking. The ice skeleton's attitude had already set off alarm bells in her heart. She could not wait any longer. She was anxious to know what Dumb thought of her.
Dumb sighed and said, "Brother, don't force me. Okay? I, I can't tell how I feel about Yue. But. You know, I'm a thief. "
Xuanyue didn't relax and said, "This is just an excuse. Let's be clear. What I want to ask you is, do you like my sister or not? Let me tell you, my sister has you in her heart. Otherwise, why would she ask me to find you on her behalf from so far away? The reason why I brought you out of the tavern was because I didn't want you to have any entanglement with that ice skeleton. Tell me clearly, do you have feelings for my sister? " Xuanyue finally couldn't help but let go of her reservations and confess to Dumb. Although it was an indirect confession using another identity, for a young lady of the Holy Hall like her, it was the limit she could bear.
Hearing Xuanyue's words, Dumb's whole body shook. His face turned pale and he muttered, "What, what did you say? Yue, she, no, impossible. I'm just a thief! "
Xuanyue held Dumb's head with both hands and stared into his eyes, "Big brother, don't run away. Tell me, tell me how you feel about Yue." She had already confessed. She made up her mind. As long as Dumb loved her, she would immediately clarify her identity and be with him regardless of everything.
Dumb's heart was in a mess. All kinds of complicated emotions kept entangling in his heart. Xuanyue's charming dimples kept flashing in his heart, but Xuanyue's cold voice of rejection kept ringing in his ears. The constant impact of reason and emotion made him hesitate.
Shaking his head hard, Dumb pulled Xuanyue's hands away and said painfully, "Don't force me, brother, don't force me. I can't like Yue! It's impossible between us. I can't be with Yue. "
Because Xuanyue was emotional, she did not understand Dumb's words carefully. Listening to Dumb's painful voice, her heart ached. She did not expect that her efforts would be repaid by Dumb's rejection. Her delicate body swayed slightly, and her beautiful eyes were filled with tears. She said sadly, "Why is it impossible? Is it because of Bing? "
Dumb's body shook. He raised his head and looked at Xuanyue in shock. He had long forgotten that he had taken out Bing's portrait in front of Xuanyue. At this time, when he heard her mention Bing's name, Bing's dying words kept ringing in his mind. Her sad and beautiful appearance made Dumb a little dazed. His heart was even more confused. Looking at Xuanyue in front of him, he could not say a word.
Looking at Dumb's expression, Xuanyue thought that she had guessed correctly. Her chest felt like it was pressed by a big stone and she could not breathe. Her tears flowed uncontrollably. She murmured, "So it's really because of her." All along, Xuanyue believed that Dumb liked her. However, Dumb's expression made her heart cold. He didn't love her, he loved the girl named Bing.
Dumb let out a long sigh. He used his sleeve to wipe away the tears on Xuanyue's face. He said calmly, "Brother, why are you crying? Are you sad for Yue? When you see her in the future, help me tell her to forget about me. Dumb doesn't deserve to be with Yue! " He had already thought it through. Although he really liked Yue, the gap between their identities would inevitably bring a lot of trouble to Yue. No matter how he looked at it, he was not worthy of Yue. Instead of affecting her life, it was better to give up now. At least he and Xuanyue would not fall too deeply in love. At this time, Dumb flinched. He flinched in front of his feelings.
Xuan Yue nodded stiffly. This was her hope all along. She had been hoping for a long time, but she was rejected. How could she bear it? Looking at Dumb's blank face, Xuanyue said sadly, "Brother, it turns out that you don't like Yue. It seems that she is too stupid. It is completely wishful thinking. Don't worry, I will tell her. I won't bother you in the future. Then you can be with that Bing of yours. "
Dumb did not explain his relationship with Bing. He lowered his head and kept repeating the three words "I'm sorry". He suddenly felt as if he had lost something, something very important.
After a long time, Xuanyue's beautiful eyes regained a trace of vitality. She said lightly, "Brother, I'm a little tired today. Let's find a hotel to rest first. We will go to the Sorcerers Guild tomorrow."
What else could Dumb say at this moment? He could only nod silently. There was a hotel not far from where they were standing. Xuanyue walked over like a zombie. The pain in Dumb's heart was no less than Xuanyue's. He knew that the person he loved also liked him. He could not admit his feelings. This kind of pain was like being cut by a knife. It made his body tremble slightly. The two of them walked into the hotel without saying a word. Xuanyue said to Dumb, "Brother, we have money now. Let's each stay in a room."
Dumb nodded silently. He had the same thoughts as Xuanyue. He just wanted to be alone for a while. Xuanyue asked for two standard rooms adjacent to each other. She and Dumb took the keys and stepped into their respective rooms. No one said a word. The atmosphere between the two of them was unusually heavy.
Xuanyue closed the door of her room. She could no longer suppress the pain in her heart. She fell to the ground and burst into tears. Dumb's rejection was like the sky had fallen on her. It was like a bolt from the blue had struck her heart. Why, why! Three years. We've only been apart for three years, and your heart has changed. Dumby, Dumby, you're no longer the Dumby I know.
After Dumb entered the room, he lay on the bed in a daze. Xuanri's words kept ringing in his heart. "Let me tell you. My sister has you in her heart. … Tell me clearly. Do you have feelings for my sister? "Dumb really wanted to shout. Yes, I have feelings for Yue! But he could not. The inferiority of his identity made him not dare to confess or admit his feelings. He curled up his body on the big bed and spasmed slightly. All kinds of complicated emotions hit his head. It was so painful. His eyes were blurred with tears. His body and mind fell into deep guilt and pain.
Early in the morning, a series of knocks on the door woke Dumby from his slumber. The mental torture of the previous day had left him physically and mentally exhausted. He kept thinking about his feelings towards Xuan Yue, but he was still unable to sort out the troubles in his heart.
He sat up from the bed in a daze. He looked at the light of dawn outside the window. His depressed mood did not decrease at all. Who was knocking on the door so early in the morning? He put on his shoes and asked, "Who is it?"
"Big Brother, it's me." Xuanyue's voice came from outside the room.
Dumb was stunned. Because of Yue, he was really afraid to face this "Xuanri" brother. He sighed and walked over to open the door. Xuan Yue's face was a little haggard, her eyes were red and swollen, and her pale lips were devoid of any color. Seeing Dumby open the door, she smiled and said, "Big Brother, did you sleep well last night?" Her voice was very calm, and there was not a trace of strangeness.
Looking at Xuanyue's smile, Dumb scratched his head and said reluctantly, "It's alright." The depression in his heart seemed to be stronger.
Xuan Yue touched her haggard face and complained, "You slept well, but I didn't sleep much last night. I'm used to sleeping with you every day. Now that we're apart, I'm really not used to it. Don't block the door! Don't you want me to go in? "
Dumby was stunned. Only then did he realize that he was still blocking the door. He hurriedly moved to the side, but in his haste, he tripped himself. His body swayed and he almost fell. Luckily, Xuan Yue grabbed his arm in time.
Xuanyue looked at Dumb's silly look and revealed a knowing smile. But deep in her eyes, there was a trace of desolation. "Big Brother, be careful."
Dumb stood up awkwardly and said, "Brother, come in and take a seat."
Xuanyue closed the door and walked into Dumb's room. She sat on Dumb's bed and said with her head lowered, "Big Brother, I thought about it very clearly yesterday. I don't blame you for not being able to accept your sister. "
Dumb was anxious and said, "Brother, I …" He wanted to tell "Xuanri" that he actually liked Yue, but he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to suppress his feelings for Xuanyue if he said it.
Xuanyue sighed and raised her hand to cover Dumb's mouth. She said, "Big Brother, don't say it. I know you're in a difficult situation. I don't blame you. I think my sister won't blame you either. Originally, after you rejected my sister, I wanted to leave you and return to the Holy Hall. But my sister's wish hasn't been fulfilled. I think we should continue to the Death Mountain Range like before. After we return. I will tell my sister about our experience. I think she will feel a little better. Just pretend that I didn't say those words yesterday. We are still good brothers. "She had thought it through yesterday. All kinds of thoughts flashed through her mind. Although Dumb rejected her, she still decided to stay. She really couldn't bear to leave like this. The reason why she stayed was to spend more time with Dumb. She also wanted to find an opportunity to see how strong the girl called Bing was compared to her. She couldn't accept it! She couldn't accept losing her beloved Dumb like this. She still had a glimmer of hope in her heart. Since she fell in love with Dumb, she wouldn't give up easily. Although. She would feel more pain if she stayed with Dumb. But she didn't regret it.
Dumb was stunned as he listened to Xuanyue's words. He murmured, "Brother, I'm sorry, I …" Sighing, Dumb made up his mind. Since he had already rejected her, he wouldn't explain anymore. It might not be a bad thing to end this relationship like this. As long as he didn't see Yue again, she would eventually forget about him.
Xuanyue said impatiently, "Don't say sorry. You didn't do anything wrong to me or my sister. How can a relationship be forced? Alright, I haven't eaten for a whole day. I'm hungry. I think you're hungry too. Let's go eat something first. Then we'll go to the Sorcerers Guild and the Mercenary Guild. You said before that you would listen to me. " She just wanted to use other things to divert her attention. She tried her best not to think about things related to Dumb. The pain in her heart was making her break down. If she didn't get rid of it, she was afraid that she would go crazy.
Dumb put on his coat and said, "Then let's go now." The two of them had a complicated feeling as they casually ate some food in the inn. They chewed on the tasteless food and swallowed it mechanically. The meal ended in silence.
Andis City was located in the northwest of the continent. Although it wasn't as cold as Ninuocheng, it was still a little chilly. There were a lot of clouds in the sky today. The sun hid behind the clouds and only revealed a bit of light occasionally. Andis City had the largest Sorcerers Guild on the continent. Of course, this referred to the Tenjin Empire's Sorcerers Guild and the Continental Union of Magicians combined. Both Sorcerers Guilds had about a third of their strength in this big city. For a long time, the Continental Union of Magicians had always had the upper hand because of their advantage in numbers and long history. The two Sorcerers Guilds both had very tall buildings. They faced each other across the wide axis of Andis City. Although the Magicians from both sides had occasional conflicts, due to the intervention of the Yakin people, there weren't any major losses. Today, the two guilds that were usually frequented by Magicians were unusually quiet. There weren't any Magicians on either side. There seemed to be a heavy atmosphere in the air.
"Brother, are we going to the Continental Union of Magicians?" Xuanyue asked in a low voice as she looked at the two buildings that were about the same size.
Dumb nodded and said, "Didn't you say you wanted to go to the Sorcerers Guild yesterday to prove your strength? Let's help you confirm your level first. " Ever since they left the inn in the morning, the two had been avoiding each other on purpose. Even when they talked, they would only find topics that were neither painful nor itchy.
"But, which of these two is the Continental Union of Magicians?" Xuanyue voiced out her doubt.
Dumb was stunned. Yes, these two buildings were almost the same. The front door was empty and there were no signs. When he asked for directions, he didn't ask for directions. This was going to be difficult.
Xuanyue held Dumb's hand and said, "Let's just look for one. If it's not right, then the other one will be it." After that, she pulled Dumb and walked towards the Sorcerers Guild in the north.
The Sorcerers Guild was surprisingly quiet. Not only were there no Magicians coming and going, but the two also didn't see a single Magician when they entered the hall. Xuanyue walked to the center of the magic hexagram drawn on the floor of the hall and shouted, "Is anyone here?" There was no response. Xuanyue snorted and said, "I asked that passerby just now. He said that Andis City has the most Magicians on the continent. There's no one here!"
Dumb also felt strange. No matter which Sorcerers Guild it was early in the morning, it shouldn't be so quiet. It shouldn't be so quiet. Did something happen? It couldn't be such a coincidence.
"Who is it! What are you shouting for? Don't you know this is the Sorcerers Guild? "A somewhat hoarse voice rang out.
Dumb and Xuanyue looked in the direction of the voice. A Magician in his forties walked out from the back of the hall. This person was wearing a red Magician's robe. It was obvious that he was a Fire Magician.
Dumb hurried forward and said politely, "Hello, we are here for the magic certification. Why are there so few people here? "
The middle-aged Magician looked at the plainly dressed Dumb and Xuanyue suspiciously and said, "The Sorcerers Guild will not certify Magicians today, but you can stay here for now. The branch leader will certify you when he comes back. However. You have to show me a spell first so that I can confirm that you are indeed Magicians. "
Xuanyue frowned and said, "Such a big Sorcerers Guild doesn't even have someone who can certify us?" She didn't even chant a spell. She waved her hand and a light bomb flew towards the Magician.
The middle-aged Magician was shocked. He had never seen a spell that didn't require chanting. In his panic, he didn't have time to use magic to block. He could only take a few steps back, crouch down and try to dodge.
Xuanyue pursed her lips and smiled. She used her power of the Will to control the light bomb and rushed towards the body of the middle-aged Magician who was crouching down. The Magician's face looked very pale under the white light. Just when he thought he was going to be hit. With a thud, the light bomb disappeared. Xuanyue's bell-like laughter rang out in the hall. It seemed that all the unhappiness from yesterday had been vented at this moment.
Seeing Xuanyue laugh, Dumb's heart was slightly relieved. He didn't blame him for the prank.
The middle-aged Magician stood up with lingering fear and murmured, "What, what kind of magic is this? How can you control the direction so easily?"
Xuanyue was stunned and said, "What level of Magician are you? You don't even know this. When your power of the Will is strong enough, you will naturally be able to control your own magic."
The middle-aged Magician's face turned red and said, "I, I am an intermediate Magician. Since you really know magic, then stay here for now. We'll talk about it when the branch leader comes back. "
Xuanyue looked at the middle-aged Magician's somewhat unnatural expression and asked, "Can you tell us what the Magicians in the Sorcerer Guild are doing? Why is there no one? "
The middle-aged Magician said with hatred, "It's all because of those guys. They kept provoking us, so the branch leader decided to teach them a lesson. " At this point, he seemed to realize that he had said something wrong. He quickly stopped and looked at Xuanyue and Dumb cautiously.
Xuanyue heard the meaning behind his words. She was surprised and said, "I heard that there are two Sorcerers Guild in Andis City. Which one are you?"
The middle-aged Magician said proudly, "Of course we are the most authentic Sorcerers Guild. The great Archmage Lardas is our leader. He is one of the three great Archmages apart from the Holy Hall. How can those arrogant guys be compared to him? How dare they say they are the authentic ones. They don't even have a single Archmage. "
Xuanyue and Dumb understood after listening to his words. This was the Sorcerers Guild of the Tenjin Empire. Xuanyue signaled to Dumb with her eyes to stop him from talking. Then she walked up to the middle-aged Magician and said with a smile, "Yes! I have long heard that Grand Magician Lardas' magic is very powerful, so I came to join him. It seems that I have found the right place. Under his guidance, my magic will definitely improve by leaps and bounds. You joined the Sorcerers Guild earlier than us, so you are our senior. Please give us more guidance in the future. "
In the Sorcerers Guild, he had always been at the lowest level. Due to his limited talent and laziness, he had only reached the level of an intermediate Magician after practicing for more than 20 years. Xuanyue's flattery made him feel like he was on cloud nine. He said proudly, "Don't worry. After you join the Sorcerers Guild, I will definitely take care of you. I have been in the Sorcerers Guild for many years. When the time comes, I will try to recommend you to the branch president. With his guidance, your magic will definitely improve by leaps and bounds. "
Looking at his proud look, Xuanyue laughed in her heart. She sighed and pretended to be regretful. She said, "I want to communicate with powerful Magicians the most. What a pity! The branch president is not here. I think we should go to the Sorcerers Guild to have a look. Maybe they have some powerful Magicians there. "After saying this, she pulled Dumb and turned to leave.
The Tenjin Empire's Sorcerers Guild lacked manpower compared to the Continental Union of Magicians. Seeing that they were about to leave, he hurriedly stopped them. "Don't go! There is no use going to the other side. There is no one there. It is better to wait here for the branch president to come back. "
A cunning look flashed in Xuanyue's eyes. She asked doubtfully, "Why is there no one there? Didn't they say that the Continental Union of Magicians has more people? "
The middle-aged Magician hesitated for a moment. It didn't matter if he told them. The other Magicians had all left. These two unfamiliar faces were probably not spies. As long as he could keep these two Magicians. After the branch president returned, he would definitely reward him. Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth and said, "I will tell you the truth. Because of the provocation of those guys. The branch president has issued a letter of challenge to them. Andis City's security is relatively strict. So, they arranged to have the competition at Bilu Canyon outside the city. If we win this time, we can drive those guys out of Andis City and even out of Suo City Federation. As long as you join our Sorcerers Guild, your future will be limitless. "
Dumb and Xuanyue were both shocked. They looked at each other. They didn't expect that the conflict between the two Sorcerers Guild had escalated to the point of war.
Dumb's heart tightened. He still had a lot of feelings for the Sorcerers Guild. When he first stepped into the continent, he was deeply touched by the fact that the Sorcerers Guild gave out salaries to all the Magicians. He didn't want to see the Magicians killing each other. He sighed and said, "Brother, let's go take a look. Hopefully, we can stop them."
Xuanyue: "Okay! Then let's go now. If we are late, I am afraid we won't be able to see the exciting things. "Then, she pulled Dumb and walked out.
The middle-aged Magician hurriedly stopped them and said anxiously, "Don't go! Didn't you say that you will stay here and wait for the branch president to come back? That's not a place you can go. "
Xuanyue silently chanted a spell, and a holy aura suddenly burst out. With a wave of her hand, a white light covered the middle-aged Magician's body. She smiled and said, "Did I say that I would stay? I don't think so. Thank you for your information. We will come back when we have the chance. "Then, she pulled Dumb and walked out of the Tenjin Empire's Sorcerers Guild. The spell she used could restrict the middle-aged Magician's movement for an hour.
After leaving the Tenjin Empire's Sorcerers Guild, Xuanyue looked around and said, "Big Brother, I don't think it's good for us to go like this. There are Magicians there. I think there must be people guarding outside the canyon to prevent others from entering. If we go like this, we will probably be stopped outside. If we force our way in, we will definitely attract attention from both sides. We can't observe in secret. It would be good if we can find two sets of ordinary Magician's robes. That way, we can avoid conflict. My priest's robe is too eye-catching. "
Dumb had an idea. He looked at the Continental Union of Magicians in the south, smiled and said, "It's okay, I have a way. Don't forget, I am a member of the Sorcerers Guild!" Then, he walked straight to the Continental Union of Magicians. Xuanyue was slightly stunned. Looking at Dumb's tall back, she sighed softly. Big Brother! Why is it that the more I am with you, the more difficult it is for me to extricate myself? But I really can't bear to leave you! Xuan Yue's beautiful eyes were filled with sorrow as she slowly followed after him.
The situation in the Continental Union of Magicians was similar to that of the Tenjin Empire's Sorcerers Guild. After Dumb and Xuanyue entered the Union's hall, they shouted a few times. Then, a young Magician came out. He looked about the same age as Dumb and was slightly taller than Xuanyue. He had a scholarly look and wore a green Magician's robe. Obviously, he was a Wind Magician. He was handsome and had a strong magic aura. His level was obviously much higher than the previous Magician from the Sky Gold Magicians Union. The young Magician didn't neglect Dumb and Xuanyue because of their civilian attire. He smiled and said, "Both of you, what brings you to the Continental Union of Magicians?"
Xuanyue didn't wait for Dumb to speak. She rushed to say, "We are here for the Magician certification. Can we start now?" She also felt that this Magician seemed to be very knowledgeable. She wanted to see how he would react.
The young Magician seemed to have guessed what Xuanyue wanted to say. He nodded and said, "No problem. Let me test you two. Who will start first?"
Dumb was shocked. This young Magician was able to take on the role of an examiner at such a young age. It could be seen that he was very strong. It seemed that the Continental Union of Magicians was indeed stronger than the Tenjin Empire's Sorcerers Guild. At the very least, it was better in terms of reserve talents. Xuanyue smiled and said, "Then I will go first. But, you have to be careful!"
The young Magician seemed to be full of confidence in himself. He calmly drew a line in the air, and a space crack appeared. He reached into it and took out a green magic staff. The style of the magic staff was simple. The standard shape of a magic staff was not eye-catching, but it seemed to contain a strong magic element. Xuanyue was slightly stunned. The fact that the other party could use the magic of the space crack proved that he was at least at the level of an Advanced Magician or even an Advanced Magician. He could reach this level at such a young age. It could be seen that his talent was not below hers. The strength of the other party aroused the competitiveness in Xuanyue's heart. She snorted softly and did the same action as the other party. She drew a line in the air, and a golden crack appeared in the air. Xuanyue didn't need to go in and grab it herself. The Angelic Staff had already floated out. As soon as the staff fell into Xuanyue's hand, the holy aura was suddenly released. A layer of faint golden light constantly circulated around her delicate body. Xuanyue stood proudly like a god, looking at the young Magician in front of her with a cold and arrogant expression.
