Chapter 862
862 A Fatal Question
“What’s wrong? Is there something on your mind?”
Ever since they came out of Star Picking Pavilion, Lian Feng had been silent and seemed to be in a low mood. She did not say a word and only looked up at the starry sky, thinking about something.
At this moment, the two of them had already returned to Violet Cloud Training Hall, but the atmosphere was a little off.
Ye Qiu couldn’t figure out what Lian Feng was thinking. Why did she seem to have become a different person after coming out of the Star Picking Pavilion?
In the past, no matter what setback she encountered, she wouldn’t be like this. However, today, Ye Qiu saw her lonely back and felt a sense of distance. It was as if he had never truly understood her.
This sense of distance made Ye Qiu very nervous and even a little afraid.
Lian Feng, who was silent, looked up at the stars and didn’t answer Ye Qiu. She only felt sad in her silence.
Ye Qiu knew that she was under a lot of pressure now, but he didn’t know what to do. He could only silently hold her hand and encourage her.
The two of them sat silently on the cliff and admired the beautiful scenery of the night. In the quiet and comfortable atmosphere, it seemed to have recorded this beautiful moment.
After a long time, Lian Feng’s expression finally improved a little. She seemed to enjoy this comfortable moment. It was as if she had finally had time to stop and rest to admire the beautiful scenery in front of her.
This seemed to be a kind of beauty.
Sometimes, when they looked back, it seemed like they had already walked a long, long path.
Their first meeting was in the Monarch’s tomb. They had traveled for half their lives and experienced countless hardships. In the end, the two of them sat side by side.
Girls were meticulous. Lian Feng remembered everything she had experienced with Ye Qiu and clearly remembered everything Ye Qiu had done for her. She was very grateful and could not stop the love in her heart. However, after the First Elder’s reminder today, she was a little afraid.
She wasn’t afraid of death, but that Ye Qiu would no longer exist in her world.
This kind of hidden love was the most fatal. No setback could move her, but she could not accept this.
She knew very well that during her seclusion, the person accompanying Ye Qiu had always been Ming Yue. Even though she didn’t want to accept it, she had to admit this reality. On this path, it was obvious that Ming Yue had given Ye Qiu much more help than her.
Ming Yue could be the strongest helper in all the hardships Ye Qiu encountered and block calamities for him.
However, she was missing these calamities and could do nothing.
Ye Qiu’s heart ached when he felt her emotions. It was as if something was tugging at it, and his breathing became suppressed.
“Lian’er, what’s wrong? Don’t scare me, okay?”
Ye Qiu was very afraid. Lian Feng was afraid of losing Ye Qiu, so was he. In his heart, Lian Feng had always been the person he wanted to protect the most. He couldn’t bear to see her suffer at all. How could Ye Qiu’s heart not ache when he saw her like this?
Under the silent night, Lian Feng thought about many things. She looked at Ye Qiu lovingly and suddenly laughed like a spring breeze. She said very easily, “What can happen to me? I’m just touched by the scene and have some comprehension. Don’t worry.”
After comforting Ye Qiu softly, Lian Feng gently leaned into Ye Qiu’s arms and thought of something. She suddenly stood up and asked, “I’ll ask you a question. Answer me honestly and don’t lie.”
“Uh… okay.”
Ye Qiu was stunned for a moment. He suddenly couldn’t keep up with Lian Feng’s thoughts. Just now, she looked like she was on the verge of death. Why had she suddenly changed? There was a hint of playfulness in her seriousness.
It formed a sharp contrast with her usual cold image. She was extremely cute.
“Hmm,” After receiving Ye Qiu’s response, Lian Feng thought seriously for a while. Her eyes darted around as if she was thinking of some trick to get information from Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu, who was familiar with her, could tell at a glance that this problem was definitely fatal. He suddenly hesitated.
Lian Feng, who had hesitated for a long time, suddenly said, “If one day, Senior Sister Ming Yue and I really fight, who will you choose to help?”
“Ah, this…”
As expected, just as Ye Qiu had guessed, this question was indeed fatal. This was clearly a suicide question.
Lian Feng was so smart. It was impossible for her not to know Ye Qiu’s relationship with Ming Yue. However, she still asked. The key to this question was not who she was helping, but who you loved the most.
How could he f*cking answer?
“Don’t hesitate. Answer quickly.” Lian Feng immediately shouted when she saw Ye Qiu hesitate. Her expression was clearly a little angry.
“Help… help you. Of course I have to help you…”
It was a matter of life and death. Ye Qiu had to make a decision. Life was more important.
In any case, Ming Yue wasn’t here, so there was no need to worry.
Hearing Ye Qiu’s answer, Lian Feng smiled slyly. There was a mischievous smile in her smile, as if she was very satisfied with this answer. Even though she knew that Ye Qiu’s answer might not be true, it was enough for her to hear this answer.
She wasn’t an unreasonable woman, nor did she want to add some trouble to Ye Qiu’s troublesome situation.
After the joy, Lian Feng quickly fell into distress.
“Oh… But Senior Sister Ming Yue is really outstanding. She’s just standing there like a huge mountain. No matter how hard you try, you can’t move it.
“At this moment, her cultivation has already reached the Dao Sacrificial realm. I believe it won’t be long before she reaches the legendary realm above the Dao Sacrificial realm. What chance do I have?”
Lian Feng had to admit that Ming Yue’s talent and strength were indeed above hers. She did not have the foundation of her previous life and did not have the support of powerful family clan resources. She could only rely on herself and be alone.
In this world, it was too difficult to fight against those true geniuses.
She had already seen Ming Yue and knew that Ming Yue’s current strength was extremely powerful. As for her, she had only ignited a divine flame and had not even broken through to the Dao Sacrificial realm.
If there really came a day when it was as the First Elder had said, a huge battle would erupt between them. How could she win?
Ye Qiu seemed to sense the worries in her heart. His heart ached.
Actually, he knew better than anyone why Ming Yue broke through so quickly. She had found another part of herself in the suppression of the Immortal Ancient. Her Dharmic Dao had been perfected, and the mortal Ming Yue had also come to her side with a small paG.o.da.
Not to mention Lian Feng, even Ye Qiu might not be able to catch up to her future.
However, it was a good thing to have a challenge. The more impossible it was, the more it could provoke the desire to win in one’s heart.
“Let me help you, okay?” After a long silence, Ye Qiu looked at Lian Feng sincerely. This was the only thing he could do. He didn’t want to see Lian Feng in a daze. His heart really ached.
