The blood-clothed man finally got what he wanted and hugged the little girl tightly in his embrace. He hugged her very tightly, and his eyes were filled with dead silence and gentleness.
He brushed her unkempt hair back from her forehead and placed a kiss as soft as a wing between her eyebrows.
In the darkness, the blood-clothed man could clearly see all of her wounds. She was like a broken doll, unconscious in the crook of his arm. If he had come just a little later, she would have died.
She would never smile at him again. She would never tell him that as long as he looked for her, she would definitely appear. She would completely disappear from his short life.
When he thought that she would die and she would leave him, his ice-cold heart felt as if it was ignited and was suffocating from the pain. How could she leave without his permission?!
He definitely would not agree!
The blood-red clothed man's deathly still eyes were dark and cold. Anything that injured or used her, he would make them pay the price they deserved!
No one could hurt this idiot!
The blood-clothed man stood up with Gu Hua in his arms. With a noble and elegant body, he viciously clawed at a certain spot in the sky. The sound of something being shattered suddenly rumbled over!
"Master, two hours have already passed …" Mo Ziyuan's heart was burning with anxiety. He couldn't wait any longer and didn't come out yet. Two hours was more than enough to destroy a soul. He didn't even dare to imagine what would happen after Gu Hua died.
"I'm afraid the odds are against us." The Jindan Stage Elder sighed. He knew a bit about this mirror, but he was just an elder without any real ability. Even if he knew, what could he do?
The Sect Leader and Wu Chen had already decided that no matter how much the Jindan Stage Elder said, it would be useless.
For some reason, he suddenly thought back to the first time he had seen that girl, standing on the battling platform with a dagger to protect her life, almost winning the match with her blood. He remembered her eyes, bright as a blooming flower, able to burn everything cold, because of those eyes, he wanted her to be his disciple, also because of her eyes, he had fallen in love with another girl, he had forgotten about the little girl's goodness, he had forgotten about her strength and intelligence, he had forgotten how she had come to this stage.
I ask myself, did Gu Hua Wei do something wrong? Never.
When he thought of the three fires of the moon that had been dyed red by her blood, his ice-cold heart finally ached. It truly did hurt.
He remembered what she had said. She had said, "I remember when you asked for a moon fire. I didn't want to be a man who broke his word."
He clutched his chest, the pain like the tide had finally sobered him.
"Senior apprentice-brother …" DiShang finally opened his eyes, no longer glancing at Gu Qingcheng who had been observing him. A hint of hatred finally appeared in his eyes. Turning his head, he heard him say: "Senior Brother, I regret …"
Dressed in a white robe, the richly embroidered man stood in a place with no lights at all. His eternally unchanging face finally revealed an expression of regret and pain for the first time.
He finally felt regret.
He regretted going against a little girl. He regretted not being able to see through his own sincerity. He regretted not being able to be more rational.
However, this kind of regret came too late, forever too late.
The Sect Leader's face flashed with a trace of impatience. "Junior Brother, are you speaking nonsense?"
"I'm not talking nonsense." Di Shang could not control his trembling body, he leaned his body against a bookshelf to barely support himself, incoherently saying, "Senior brother, you save her, you save her! I don't want her to die! "You saved her …"
He regretted it. He regretted it long ago.
"Master …" The nearby Gu Qingcheng seemed to have understood something. She wanted to get closer to him, but was forced to retreat a few steps by Di Shang's attack. Gu Qingcheng looked at Di Shang in disbelief, her heart turning cold, "Teacher, teacher, how can you treat your disciple like this …"
But, DiShang turned a deaf ear.
Gu Qingcheng started to panic. She had used the Pear Blossom Rain ability that she was most proficient at, he would panic whenever he saw her cry. This time, it would definitely work, she told herself.
But this time, she was destined to be disappointed.
She cried so miserably in front of him that she couldn't return his tender gaze. He seemed to have gone mad as he kept saying, "I'm regretting it, I'm regretting it. You come back, you come back …"
She knew who he was talking to, but so what? Gu Qingcheng wiped away her tears and sneered. So what if she regretted it? Gu Hua Wei was already dead. From the moment he chose her, DiShang was destined to become her bargaining chip!
The Sect Leader gazed at the frenzied Di Shang with a pair of compassionate eyes. His moon-white robe was faintly discernible in the white light, "So what if I regret it?" Junior Brother, this is the reason you planted it, and you are destined to reap the consequences. "
As long as the Heaven and Earth Mirror was alive, no one would be able to come out safely. This was something that both him and DiShang were well aware of, but when DiShang had suggested it, he had resolutely decided to let this little girl into the Heaven and Earth Mirror. Since then, some things were destined to never turn back.
So what if he regretted? He regretted not having the medicine to eat.
"Senior Brother, let me in!" DiShang finally could not hold it in any longer and rushed to the front of the Sect Leader, jumping down towards the area where the white light was wreaking havoc! The Sect Leader was quick with his eyes and dragged him back. His indifferent eyes finally revealed a trace of coldness, "The one who plotted against her before was you. Now that she's gone, what's the use of regretting it here? From the moment you abandon her, you must know that regret is unnecessary. "
Furthermore, he regretted it when he was already dead. No matter how haughty and aloof he was, a person like him who did not eat the flames and smoke of the mortal world could make people feel that he was a hypocrite.
When Mo Ziyuan heard this, if he still didn't understand what had happened, he would have lived for so many years. He rushed forward and punched Di Shang in the face. He could not suppress the anger in his heart, "Why did you kill her? Why?!"
He originally thought that it was only a soul test, but now it seems that it was just a deliberate plot. They never planned to let that little girl return alive from the mirror; this was the so-called Yun Sect, always acting in the name of kindness, and doing shameless things!
"You give her back! You trade her for me! " Mo Ziyuan fiercely vented his anger on the motionless Di Shang. He did not believe that Gu Hua Wei would die just like that, in this conspiracy!
"What did she do wrong? Say it! Tell me, what did she do wrong?! "
DiShang stood blankly on the spot, allowing himself to be hit and cursed. In his indifferent eyes, finally, there was pain.
She had never done anything wrong. It was him who had been wrong. It had always been him.
