Chapter 14 So Many Memories Were Finally UsefulHe never expected that Murong Zhe turned into a demon. A few days after he woke up, he didn"t practice. He just sat on an endless day by day. He was waiting for someone.
Finally, he saw him. It was the first time he had seen Murong Zhe in such a long time. Murong Zhe really had turned into a demon. Although he did not believe it, it was true. He advised Murong Zhe not to turn into a demon, but Murong Zhe said, “I like you. If you are willing to seclude from the world with me, I will give up.”
As a result, he left, because Murong Zhe"s reason was unacceptable. After a long time, he could hear the news about Murong Zhe every day, but he was so scared of Murong Zhe.
Finally, Murong Zhe"s behavior provoked all imperial clans, and they killed him together. Before he died, he said to Xia Pumo with tears, “You finally come to see me.” But Xia Pumo burst into tears, indulged in the painful fact that Murong Zhe would soon pa.s.s away. Xia Pumo secretly swore in his heart, “If you come back, I will seclude with you, OK?”
But he could not hear the answer anymore.
Xia Pumo opened his eyes suddenly and gasped for a moment. He looked around and found that he did not know where he was. He sat up and wiped tears secretly from the corners of his eyes.
“You are awake?” A voice sounded behind him. He unsheathed his sword and stabbed it back, but it was resisted.
He looked at the person carefully and found that she was Ronghua. “Miss Ronghua,” He quickly withdrew the sword and clasped both hands in front, “I"m sorry.”
Ronghua raised the corner of her mouth a little and smiled slightly. “It seems that you have seen the past.”
He looked around, “Where is here?”
Ronghua said nonchalantly, “It"s the mysterious territory! It"s just a s.p.a.ce contract, but you seemed to be trapped by it.”
Xia Pumo"s face turned a bit pale, “Sorry.”
Ronghua sighed, “It"s better to heal your legs!”
He smiled bitterly, “My leg? Whether it"s good or bad, it makes no difference to me.”
Ronghua knew that in his heart, he would never forget the pain. When he recalled the pain, she was in it. The feeling of deja vu did hurt her, so she truly wanted to help him.
However, Murong Zhe was a man!
Thinking of their relationship, Ronghua couldn"t help shivering, and she asked, “You said you would seclude with him. Really?”
He looked up, “Definitely, yes!”
Although Ronghua couldn"t understand the love of others, there was no reason to stop it. “But how can you seclude before our agreement is completed?”
He was calm, and his lips slightly compressed, “If it"s not completed, I think he will accompany me.”
Ronghua, “…” Why was he so confident? Was it just because Murong Zhe liked you?
In the palace of Realm of Demons, the air pressure was so low that people could hardly breathe, but no one dared to leave. Who dared? Wasn"t he or she too bold? They all had their thoughts, lowering their heads, and dared not look at the person standing on the stage.
The person on the stage was in wrath, and the bloodthirsty nature appeared in his eyes again. He was restraining it because he remembered Lingran"s words. The bloodthirsty nature was just a negative effect, and the wise man was humanistic and calm, so he had been enduring it.
A moment later, his anger finally calmed down a little. Then he asked, “Who is guarding the Hanxin Cave today?”
The King of Death finally spoke, but no one dared to answer, for no one wanted to be the scapegoat. Thus, all of them were silent. Weilian felt angry again. When he was about to slip into a fury, someone spoke first.
“Your Majesty, it"s Shu Ruomi.”
Weilian"s eyes were full of malicious and insidious emotions, and he beat that guy directly, “Do you think I"m a fool?” It was known that Shu Ruomi was safeguarding Royal Lingxi. How dare this guy say that!
The man on the ground climbed up hard, panting, “I didn"t lie. Shu Ruomi came back today, but Royal Lingxi did not. She went to Hanxin Cave as soon as she returned.”
Hearing this, the King of Death sneered, “Shu Ruomi? Did she return to the Realm of Demons?” Hearing his words, everyone finally had some knowledge about the King of Death"s thoughts.
“Yes, the King of Death, she had come back. Lady Lingran"s iron fan had been quiet for many years. Only when she went there did the iron fan fly away. She was the one that did it.”
Only after a while, everyone attributed the error to Shu Ruomi.
“Bring her to me!” The King of Death ordered. Everyone was relieved and immediately went out to find Shu Ruomi.
Everyone in the hall went to find the Shu Ruomi. After all, she was the best one to be the scapegoat. Lord Guixia had said that she was Lingran"s sister, so anything could be solved when it was imputed to her.
The King of Death was like a fool facing the things about Lady Lingran. He always believed what others said.
When someone took Shu Ruomi here, the King of Death couldn"t control his anger. He rushed over and pinched Shu Ruomi"s neck, “When Lingran disappeared, you said you didn"t know. Because Lingran saved you, we temporarily left you in the Realm of Demons. Now her iron fan is gone, and they said it was missing after you came back today. Tell me, where is Lingran"s iron fan?”
Looking at the expression in the King of Death"s eyes and listening to what he said, she probably understood it. Was it me to be the scapegoat again? She turned her head hard, looking at the expressions of the people around and the angry appearance of the King of Death, she knew that they had imputed the crime to her again.
“Where did you take her iron fan? How did you let it fly away?” Weilian kept asking.
Shu Ruomi looked at the expression of the King of Death. She suddenly felt a little relieved.
“Sister"s iron fan is gone. It finally left here!” Suddenly a gust of wind pa.s.sed, and Shu Ruomi"s face was pushed on the wall. The painful expression on her face scared everyone. They all thought, “Fortunately, it was not my face.”
Shu Ruomi hit the wall and slid down, “Sister hasn"t done anything, and I have done nothing to my sister, either. The iron fan has always been in Hanxin cave. I haven"t done anything for 100,000 years. If I had wanted to do something, I would have done it long ago.”
Seeing that she began to argue for herself, everyone immediately refuted because they all feared that the crime would fall on them.
“Really? You should plead guilty.”
“The iron fan disappeared today. How can you explain that?”
Hearing their words, Shu Ruomi smiled sarcastically, “Hhha, have you watched me steal the iron fan?” It seemed that she would not admit it without punishment, judging from Shu Ruomi"s personality.
Shu Ruomi looked at Weilian, and the ironic smile in her eyes suddenly turned into pain. “You kept guarding sister"s courtyard like this, but you have never stepped into it. Her iron fan was always there. You would rather look at a shadow every day than get into the yard. Are you afraid that once you touch it, it will disappear?” She thought.
“Do you know why my sister didn"t want to see you? She said that she was tired, and her heart was hurt again and again, but she still loved you, even though she knew that instead of believing her, you choose to believe these so-called villains.” Shu Ruomi pointed at those people and shouted out. These people retreated in a panic, afraid that the King of Death would beat them again. Then she continued, “But she still loved you.”
The iron fan was her sister"s favorite spiritual weapon when she was alive. Now it flew away, maybe because sister didn"t want to be here anymore.
The King of Death seemed to have lost his strength and backed away.
Right! That was her spiritual weapon. She was so influential during her lifetime, and she had the ability to sweep through a thousand armies. How could her iron fan be so common?
“King of Death,” Shu Ruomi said, “Sometimes, what you see may not be what it is.”
Hearing this, those people standing by the side looked at Shu Ruomi and realized that Lingran had actually known what they had done. But she didn"t say it because she wanted to give them a chance.
The King of Death said painfully, “Will your sister… will she come back?” He didn"t know whether she would forgive him after he had done so many things.
Shu Ruomi"s eyes became darker and said something in his ear, “King of Death, you are the person whom my sister would spend her life to love.”
“If there"s nothing wrong, I"ll go. You haven"t seen Lingxi for a long time.”
Hearing Lingxi, Weilian raised his head, “Yeah! Lingxi.” She hadn"t come back for a long time, and I should go and see her. After all, Lingxi was his and Lingran"s daughter.
He calmed down and ordered, “Messenger, get everything prepared! I"ll go to the land of the human race.”
