Chapter 2626
2626 A long-lost hug
“What a beautiful sword intent!” Before his death, the old man actually had such a stunning thought in his mind.
Immediately, he felt his body become extremely relaxed and free from all the shackles of the world. Then, his consciousness gradually dissipated.
As the silver light dissipated, an elegant figure gently floated down in front of Ling Chuxi. That long silver hair and those affectionate eyes were even more stunning and beautiful than the tens of millions of Silver Star sword lights from before.
!!
“Chuxi,” he said. Huangfu qingjue gently held Ling Chuxi’s hand.
“Qingjue, qingjue … You’ve come.” Ling Chuxi held Huangfu qingjue’s hand, her eyes hazy with tears. If not for the familiar warmth coming from his palm, she would have thought that what had appeared in front of her eyes was an illusion.
“I’m sorry I’m late,” Huangfu qingjue gently pulled Ling Chuxi into his arms and felt her gentleness that had never appeared in front of outsiders. Huangfu qingjue’s heart throbbed and he felt tender affection.
Ling Chuxi hugged him tightly. Hearing his strong heartbeat and feeling the warmth of his chest, her heart gradually calmed down. The loneliness and helplessness he felt when he came to Qing-Yun realm all disappeared at this moment. Although she was tough and never gave up, she was also human and would feel tired. Even though she was climbing up step by step and slowly becoming stronger … But who could truly understand the exhaustion and loneliness in the depths of her heart? who could she tell these to? The people around her always treated her as the center of attention and always relied on her. What about her? Where was the harbor for her exhausted soul? Now, qingjue was here. He had finally come to her side. In qingjue’s arms, Ling Chuxi felt an unprecedented sense of relaxation and peace.
Time stopped at this moment. Dust and smoke flew in the air. In the ruins, a pair of tightly hugging figures formed a perfect picture, as if it would last forever.
“Right, life Jade plate.” Ling Chuxi did not know how much time had pa.s.sed. If she could, she wanted to hold Huangfu qingjue like this forever, until the end of time. However, she suddenly remembered something important and had no choice but to leave his embrace reluctantly.
“Don’t worry,” Huangfu qingjue once again pulled her into his embrace in a domineering manner. With a wave of his hand, the old man’s life Jade slip was in his hand, firmly sealed by several restrictions.
Seeing this life Jade tablet, Ling Chuxi finally felt at ease. However, very quickly, she thought of Zi Yin and the others. She didn’t know if they had managed to escape from the pursuit of the old man’s subordinates.
“I still have a few friends. I have to go save them immediately.” As Ling Chuxi spoke, she took a few spiritual pills.
Huangfu qingjue knew the meaning of the word ‘friend’ to Ling Chuxi, so he could only let go of the hand around her waist.
Just as the two of them were about to shout, they heard an angry shout from the distance,””How dare you hurt the people of my ethereal sect? are you tired of living?” His voice carried a hint of childishness, but it was also filled with monstrous anger.
“You even dare to attack the spirit beasts of the ethereal sect residence. Do you really think that there’s no one in our spirit beast clan?” Immediately after, an angry roar that was obviously a Fox exploiting a Tiger’s might rang out.
After a m.u.f.fled sound, a few miserable cries rang out, and then there was no more sound. Apparently, someone had been taken care of by granny Ling.
Ling Chuxi stopped in her tracks and a relaxed smile appeared on her face. It seemed that Bai Yu had successfully escaped back to the ethereal sect residence and brought along granny Ling. With her help, Zi Yin and the others would not be in danger.
