Su Mo was silent for a moment. After organizing his thoughts, he slowly opened his mouth.
"Qingxuan, do you know why I've been cultivating so hard? Do you know why I've come to the Central Continent? "
Su Mo's face was solemn. Before Hong Qingxuan could speak, he continued, "It's all for one person, a woman I care about!"
Su Mo's words stunned Hong Qingxuan, and her face froze.
"She's just like you. She's beautiful and pure. We met when we were young, but for some reason, we couldn't be together. I've come to the Central Continent to find her."
Su Mo seemed to be lost in his memories, and his face was filled with melancholy.
Hong Qingxuan listened quietly. She bit her red lips and felt a little sad.
Su Mo already had someone in his heart! No wonder he had never expressed anything to her!
"Is it Di Lanxi?"
Hong Qingxuan asked. She had also heard the rumor that someone named Su Mo had challenged Shangguan Hao on the wedding day of Emperor Xuan Palace's Holy Son Shangguan Hao and Holy Maiden Di Lanxi.
She had not paid attention to this rumor before, but now that she thought about it, she immediately knew that the Su Mo in the rumor was her Brother Su Mo.
Su Mo was stunned and then nodded. He did not expect Hong Qingxuan to have guessed it.
Then, both of them fell silent, and the atmosphere became extremely heavy.
Hong Qingxuan stared at Su Mo, and her beautiful eyes were a little red. Had he never liked her?
Although Hong Qingxuan felt sad that Su Mo had someone in his heart, she could accept it.
As long as Su Mo had feelings for her, she could accept that he had other women.
After all, in a martial world like the Firmament and Continent, it was normal for experts to have multiple wives and concubines.
Hong Qingxuan would not be so domineering as to monopolize Su Mo and not allow other women to interfere.
What she wanted to know now was whether Su Mo liked her or not.
"Brother Su Mo, I like you!"
After a while, Hong Qingxuan suddenly broke the heavy atmosphere.
She finally mustered up the courage to tell Su Mo. She did not want to go on like this.
Whether Su Mo liked her or not, she had to find out.
"I know!" Su Mo nodded his head heavily.
Hong Qingxuan bit her lips, took a deep breath, and asked in a deep voice, "Brother Su Mo, do you … do you like me?"
After asking this question, Hong Qingxuan felt extremely uneasy. He felt as if there was a little deer running around in his heart.
At this moment, Hong Qingxuan cast aside her shyness and reserve and stared at Su Mo with burning eyes.
Su Mo looked at Hong Qingxuan's red face and felt a little bitter.
Did he like Hong Qingxuan?
The answer must be yes.
Such a pure and beautiful girl was like an angel. There was probably no man in the world who wouldn't like her!
If not for the incident with Qian Xunyue, Su Mo would not have given up on Hong Qingxuan if Xi 'er didn't mind him taking her back after he fulfilled the five-year promise.
But now, after what had happened, it was impossible for him and Hong Qingxuan to be together!
Su Mo was well aware of the relationship between Qian Xunyue and Hong Qingxuan. They were like teachers and friends.
Under such circumstances, he had done it with Qian Xunyue, which Hong Qingxuan could not accept.
After a while, under Hong Qingxuan's burning gaze, Su Mo nodded heavily again and said, "I do!"
Hearing Su Mo's words, Hong Qingxuan smiled like a blooming flower with tears of joy in the corner of her eyes.
"Brother Su Mo, I'm glad to hear that!"
Hong Qingxuan pursed her lips and said, "I'll help you find Di Lanxi!"
Looking at Hong Qingxuan's smiling face, Su Mo sighed and said, "Qingxuan, there's one more thing that I don't want to hide from you!"
"What is it?" Hong Qingxuan was puzzled.
"It's about your master." Su Mo said.
Hong Qingxuan listened attentively. She was very curious about how Su Mo had offended her master!
As long as she knew the reason, she could find a way to resolve this conflict.
After a moment of silence, Su Mo gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice, "Your master and I had … had sex!"
"What?"
Upon hearing this, Hong Qingxuan's eyes widened. She was dumbfounded and her expression froze.
Su Mo's words were like a bolt of lightning that exploded in Hong Qingxuan's head.
"Su Mo and her master have sex?"
How was that possible?
Almost instantly, Hong Qingxuan's face turned ghastly pale.
"Impossible!"
"This can't be true!"
"Brother Su Mo, you're lying!"
After a while, Hong Qingxuan kept shaking her head as if she had lost her soul.
She could not accept such a thing.
If Su Mo had sex with other women, Hong Qingxuan could reluctantly accept it, but with her master.
In Hong Qingxuan's heart, Qian Xunyue was not only her master but also her sister.
Seeing this, Su Mo's heart ached, but he had no other choice. Even if it would hurt Hong Qingxuan, he could not hide it anymore.
"Last time in the Barbaric Mountains, I saw your master being chased by Zuoqiu Ting …!"
Su Mo slowly told Hong Qingxuan what had happened that day in detail.
After hearing Su Mo's words, Hong Qingxuan was completely silent.
She knew that Su Mo would not lie to her. Su Mo had only done this to save her master's life, not because he coveted her beauty.
However, her heart was still aching, and she wanted to die.
No matter what, Qian Xunyue was her master.
"Qingxuan, I'm sorry!" Su Mo said in a deep voice.
Hong Qingxuan's face was pale. She shook her head and said, "Brother Su Mo, you did nothing wrong. You can only blame fate for making fools of you!"
Su Mo sighed. He knew that she must be feeling terrible, but he did not know how to comfort her.
"Brother Su Mo, I'll leave first. I need some peace and quiet!"
Hong Qingxuan suddenly stood up and walked out without looking back.
"Qingxuan …!"
Su Mo hurriedly shouted, but Hong Qingxuan did not even look back. She quickly walked out of the room and left.
"Alas!"
Su Mo sighed and did not chase after her. Perhaps it was better to let her have some peace and quiet.
Su Mo shook his head helplessly. He knew that it would be difficult for him and Hong Qingxuan to return to how they used to be.
It was more likely that she would never see him again.
Su Mo's heart was filled with melancholy. After sitting in a daze for a long time, he finally cleared his mind, sat cross-legged on the bed, and began to cultivate.
Su Mo could already temporarily merge the gold and earth properties, and the duration was about the same as before. Now, he wanted to try to merge the wood and fire properties.
With a thought, the wood and fire properties Dark Force surged to Su Mo's fingertips. Knock!
Knock! Knock!
Just as Su Mo was about to try to merge them, there was another knock on the door.
"Qingxuan!" Su Mo was overjoyed, thinking that Hong Qingxuan had returned.
However, the next moment, Su Mo's expression suddenly changed. He subconsciously used his spiritual consciousness and found three people standing outside the door.
