The Daoist was stunned for a moment and then understood Su Nuo's meaning, "The Second Prince's memories and thoughts are in chaos right now." He paused for a moment before continuing, "That is to say, the Second Prince might overlap several people from his memories and focus all those feelings on one person." The Taoist looked at him and said.
Of course Su Nuo understood what he meant. Since she had already said these words in such a naked manner, how could she not understand? Su Nuo forced a smile at the Taoist, then turned and left.
Yes, she could imagine that her master had placed his fear of his deceased eldest sister on her, so why not place his deep love for her on her instead?
Yes, how could she be right? In the time she had spent with her master, her master had never mentioned her sister, nor had she shown any sign of missing her sister, much less treating her as her sister's substitute. How could this be normal, how could this be possible?
Because from the beginning to the end, the master treated her like an elder sister. He treated her the way he treated his elder sister, giving her the gentleness and fault that belonged to his elder sister.
Everything was a thousand times more cruel than deceiving herself!
Even that word 'like' was for her sister, not for her.
So it turned out that she wasn't even ranked at the bottom in the master's heart. She, she had always been that lowly slave girl, saved by the master when she was eleven years old, signed a life contract, and was the elder sister's substitute.
Other than that — nothing.
As her thoughts continued to grieve madly, Su Nuo wanted to cry, but she clenched her teeth and did not let a single tear fall. It was time she woke up from this dream because she no longer had the qualifications to even dream, much less shed tears.
Ever since she fell in love with her master, ever since she married him, she had already completely fixed herself in place. She did not make a fuss, and she just quietly stayed by her master's side, becoming a female slave for the rest of her life.
This was her only use in living.
Su Nuo raised her head and looked at the blue sky. She turned back all her tears and all her crazy thoughts. Then she smiled.
She was a slave, a slave.
Su Nuo said this to herself in her heart.
Suddenly, a commotion from outside interrupted Su Nuo's train of thoughts. Su Nuo then realized that she had unknowingly walked to the main entrance. Su Nuo was about to leave, but for some reason, Su Nuo turned around and walked out.
With just a glance, Su Nuo could only blink as she looked forward.
He saw that the youth called Ning Fei, who was still dressed in his shabby clothes, standing there like a stubborn little beast. No matter how the Daoist priest coaxed him, he just stood there and didn't say a word, wanting to enter.
Su Nuo did not know why this young man was here, nor did she know what he wanted to do. However, every time she saw him, she would involuntarily think of Duke Bei Chen, the person who caused her so much pain.
Su Nuo sighed deeply and walked out. The moment Ning Fei saw Su Nuo, her eyes lit up.
When the young Daoist saw Su Nuo come over, he also remembered that this woman was with the Second Prince, so he stepped forward and asked, "Miss, do you recognize this person?"
Su Nuo nodded and the young Daoist waved his hand to allow the other young daoists to get out of the way. He gave Ning Fei a disdainful look before bringing the young Daoists back to their seats.
Su Nuo was about to ask him, but Ning Fei had already walked over. She stretched out her hand and shoved a grasshopper into Su Nuo's arms. "Here you go."
Su Nuo's eyes widened all of a sudden. She couldn't think straight. She looked at the teenager and asked, "Did you come here to give this to me?"
Hearing this, Ning Fei's pearly white lips turned unnatural. He glared at Su Nuo. "It's none of your business."
This time, Su Nuo was speechless. She had never seen anyone before, let alone someone as strange as Ning Fei.
Ning Fei was about to leave when he turned back at once. He looked at Su Nuo and said, "Don't throw it away! I'll come back tomorrow!" With that, he really left in big strides.
Su Nuo held the grasshopper in her hand and looked at the back of the teenager who was getting farther and farther away. No matter how she looked at it, it didn't seem real.
The thoughts in her head were completely insufficient. Shouldn't gifting someone a gift be done with a smile? Why was there someone so vicious? It was as if she owed him a lot of money.
Suddenly, Su Nuo thought of a practical problem. How did Ning Fei know she was here? From the inn to the Spirit Mountain, her mind raced. Could it be that this young man had always been following them, but why did he follow them?
Su Nuo looked at the grasshopper in her hand, unable to make sense of it.
However, this small episode had caused Su Nuo's original train of thought to be interrupted. Her mood improved slightly, and she returned to her own room.
The room was still the same as before, and the maple trees were still dripping with blood. Actually, everything was the same, but the only difference was her mood.
Su Nuo leaned against the stone steps as she looked at the sky. She actually thought that she had fallen asleep. Sometimes, Suño knew that confusion was good for him, too. At least, it wasn't that cruel, was it?
The sky gradually darkened, especially when the cave was dark. From the outside, it was pitch black and there was nothing else.
Bei Chen Han sat cross-legged, his expression becoming more and more ferocious. His fists were clucking loudly, and his face was pale. Suddenly, Bei Chen Han opened his eyes, and they were bloodshot, like a mad beast.
Bei Chen Han's eyes swept the surroundings: "Xiao'er, Xiao'er, where are you?"
However, no one could answer him in the quiet cave. Other than the rustling of the mountain breeze, there was no one else.
"Xiao'er, Xiao'er." Bei Chen Han's voice became anxious, the fear in his voice was obvious.
"Xiao'er, where are you, Xiao'er?" Bei Chenghan shouted anxiously as he walked out of the cave. Just as he was about to reach the cave entrance, four men in black appeared.
The leader of the men in black said respectfully to Bei Chenhan, "Second Prince, you have not removed your illness, it is not suitable for you to go out."
Bei Chen Han didn't pay any attention to what the person in front of him was saying. He just glared at them with his blood-red eyes: "Where did you guys take Na'er? Speak, where did you guys take her?" Before the man in black replied, Beichen had already thrown a punch at him.
The black-clothed man was shocked and couldn't help but retreat, suddenly the leader said: "We can't let His Royal Highness leave, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable." The three men in black heard this and understood the power, they were Beichen's shadow, the only belief they had since they were young was that no matter what they had to do, they must be beneficial to Beichen, and they absolutely must not do harmful things.
Bei Chen Han saw that they were actually trying to block his way, and his anger grew even more uncontrollable. He could only slowly rise up, and every move of his was extremely sharp, as long as the shadow was not careful, he would be decapitated.
However, these four shadows were their masters. They could not let Beichen get out, nor could they injure him. Even if it was just four of them, it would still be very strenuous.
All of a sudden, Beichang Han leaped up and struck one of the shadows viciously with his palm, causing the shadow to spit out more blood.
The sound of the fight immediately roused the little Daoist from his sleep. He quickly ran over to inform the Daoist priest, who frowned and said, "Go and bring the girl that came with the Second Prince."
When the Daoist priest heard this, he hurriedly ran to the side room, while the Daoist priest himself led the other Daoists to the cave.
By the time the Taoist priest arrived, two of the four Umbra's were already seriously injured, and two of the other two were also injured. Although it was not considered heavy, it was still not light.
Bei Chen Han fiercely threw a shadow in his hand to the side, seeing the incoming group of Taoists, his entire body seemed to have gone mad, his eyes were red as he shouted: "Return Xiao'er to me, return Xiao'er to me, I won't let you take her away, definitely not!" With that said, he rushed into the group of Taoists.
Those Taoists could not even compare to a tenth of the shadow, and Beichen's attack was completely useless. Seeing the situation, the Taoist priest hastily rushed in front of Beichen, protecting those Taoists behind him and started fighting with him.
Su Nuo was still in a daze from her sleep, but a cold aura enveloped her body. Suddenly, a voice broke through her.
"Miss Su, it's bad, it's bad." The little Daoist immediately ran over.
Su Nuo immediately woke up from her stupor when she heard this shout. The little Daoist panted as he ran in front of Su Nuo and stuttered, "No, this isn't good."
Su Nuo's heart sank. She grabbed the little Daoist's hand and said, "What happened to Han? Where is Han now?" As he spoke, Su Nuo was about to run out.
When the young Daoist saw this, he hastily went forward to lead the way for Su Nuo.
The path up the mountain was somewhat steep, and with the addition of the dark night, it became harder to walk. However, Su Nuo acted as if she didn't see him and continued running up.
Right now, there was only her master left. Nothing could happen to him, absolutely nothing could happen to her.
If something were to happen to her master —
When Su Nuo thought of this, she felt her entire body go cold. She no longer dared to continue thinking and ran forward with even more force.
Once they were up the mountain, the sounds of fighting could be heard in Su Nuo's ears. Su Nuo didn't know how she got to the cave, but she knew that she had to run faster and faster. She wanted to see her master and see how cold she was.
However, when she arrived at the cave and saw Bei Chen Han who looked like a madman, she was completely shaken.
She could not believe that this person was actually her master, the one who had always been calm.
Beichen's eyes were already red from fighting, and the strength in his hands was also getting more and more violent. That Taoist was soon at a disadvantage, and his body was almost completely covered with wounds. Under the night sky, he seemed to be in a sorry state, and the Clear Wind Dao Bone was completely gone.
