Chapter Index

    The speed of time in the small world is different from that in the world of immortality. Outside the secret realm, it is already the early spring when the ice and snow melt and everything revives, while in the small world, autumn has just entered.

    The night breeze in early autumn was blowing, neither too cold nor too cool, but with a hint of heat that lingered in the summer.

    Wei Lin, who had not been so close to others for many years, was not used to being hugged by Duan Xi in an almost protective manner.

    He pushed and said, “How long do you want to hold me? If you continue to hold me, the innate spiritual treasure will go into someone else’s pocket.”

    He suspected that if he didn’t speak, Duan Xi could hold him until the end of time.

    Sure enough, the person hugging him stiffened for a moment, then let go of his arms and took a step back, feeling helpless and embarrassed.

    He heard a low groan, with a mixture of seven parts self-blame and three parts guilt.

    “I’m sorry, I didn’t protect you.”

    The sound was so soft that if the monks didn’t have very good ears, they would hardly be able to hear it.

    Duan Xi stared into his eyes for a moment. The gaze was too deep and hot. Wei Lin subconsciously turned away from his eyes and said softly: “It has nothing to do with you, there is no need to blame yourself.”

    It was because he knew that the secret realm was dangerous and Xing Siming was watching eagerly, but he still insisted on entering the secret realm himself.He was not surprised that this situation would happen, and he had no intention of regretting or blaming anyone.

    Duan Xi remained silent, but clenched his fists again.The wound that had begun to scab on the palm was pinched open again, and a fine stinging pain penetrated the nerve endings and reached the atrium.

    He seemed unaware of the wound and half-closed his eyes, “Wei Lin…”

    “Huh?”

    Duan Xi on the other side hesitated to speak, looking incomprehensible.Wei Lin was not in a hurry to ask what his intention was, but just waited quietly.

    Wei Lin didn’t know that his leaving without saying goodbye was like cold water poured down from his pocket, extinguishing Duan Xi’s love.

    Duan Xi thought that Wei Lin had feelings for him after being together for so long.But the reality is that within a few days of his departure, Wei Lin, who promised to wait for his return, turned around and left without hesitation.

    There was no warning, as if it had been planned for a long time.

    Duan Xi was not a fool, and he could more or less see clues from Wei Lin’s every move.He knew that Wei Lin had been using him from the beginning, including the child, who was also a bargaining chip in his calculations.

    Now that Wei Lin’s obsession has been completely cured, and there is no more burden in his stomach, he is once again the arrogant master of the Ghost Valley, and from now on, the sky is high and the sea is wide.It was basically impossible for him to restrain Wei Lin again.

    In this game, he lost, completely defeated, but he was willing to do so.

    Duan Xi opened her thin lips lightly and said, “Can you stop being so pushy? Can you try to believe me, even if…”

    He paused and pondered for a moment, “It doesn’t matter even if you just use me.”

    The words were so humble that they were almost begging, but they were not at all like words that the proud self would say.

    But rather than having nothing to do with Wei Lin from now on, he would rather be a pawn in Wei Lin’s hands.

    “Heh…”

    Wei Linxu clasped his fingers together and chuckled softly against his lips.He did not directly answer Duan Xi’s confession, but suddenly leaned forward, grabbed Duan Xi’s skirt with one hand, and pulled the latter closer to him when he was not prepared.

    Duan Xi was half a head taller than Wei Lin, and their chests were almost touching. She lowered her head to look at Wei Lin, only a punch away from his slightly cool thin lips.

    As long as he presses down a little, he can pick the tempting forbidden fruit.

    Duan Xi’s heart beat like thunder, and he couldn’t help but think of the memory buried deep in his heart.

    The two of them were so close that Wei Linquan could see the change in Duan Xi’s expression.He raised the corner of his mouth and said jokingly: “You like me and want me, right?”

    Duan Xi took a breath. Although he had always been shameless in front of Wei Lin, he blushed and didn’t know how to respond when his dirty thoughts in his heart were so bluntly expressed.

    A smile flashed in Wei Lin’s eyes, “Don’t you want to know what I’m going to do? I can tell you.”

    “Are you… willing to say it?”

    No matter how much he insinuated things before, Wei Lin never let go, but now he is willing to say it. Does that prove…

    Is he different in Wei Lin’s heart after all?

    The dark eyes as dark as night ignited with light, like the scene before dawn that was about to break.

    The heartbeat beats more and more frequently, like a drum beating in the ears, making people panic.

    Wei Lin frowned, and the smile in his eyes became even bigger: “I don’t want to hear it, that’s all.”

    Duan Xi unconsciously curled his little finger, feeling the urge to wrap his arms around the waist of the person in front of him and hold him tightly into his arms, preferably integrating him into his bones and blood.

    He didn’t do it after all. He just froze his hands and feet and nodded slowly: “I want to.”

    When they were mortal enemies, they would definitely get into a fight if they disagreed. Except for the few months when they got along peacefully, he knew nothing about Wei Lin.

    No one knew how eager he was to know everything about Wei Lin.

    Wei Lin didn’t know the complicated thoughts surging in his heart. He just frowned and pondered for a moment, trying to speak in a calm tone.

    “Speaking of which… your mother’s death is considered to be caused by me.”

    In the world of immortality, there is a rumor that those who reach the Ghost Valley can obtain immortality on the Great Way. Wei Lin had people spread the rumor.Those ancient books that recorded how to open prehistoric ruins were also spread after he wrote them.

    In the beginning, his target was those powerful monks who were ambitious and greedy, but Xing Siming was just the most suitable big fish he caught in his net.

    With scheming, strength, status, and ruthlessness, Xing Siming is indeed a very useful chess piece.It just gave him a little clue, and he could use it to find one of Gui Gu’s exposed strongholds.He also set up a trap to deceive Duan Liqing into trusting him, and almost dug out the true location of Ghost Valley.

    If Duan Liqing hadn’t left a trace of defense to protect Lingxi and Duan Xi, the current situation might not have been the case.

    “If I hadn’t released that information, Xing Siming wouldn’t have set up Duan Liqing, and he wouldn’t have died, let alone you.”

    “After Duan Liqing died, for the sake of the overall situation, I did not kill Xing Siming to avenge her, or even rescue her soul immediately. I took your sister Lingxi away, and the hardships you have experienced were also deliberately arranged by me.”

    “The original intention of kicking you into the heart of the earth was to kill you if you couldn’t awaken the Suzaku bloodline. Even the amnesia after going crazy was sealed by me myself. The purpose of keeping the child is to contain you and make you reluctant to kill your own bloodline to ensure the safety of my own life.”

    “And all I did was just to open up the prehistoric ruins with Xing Siming’s hands.”

    Every time Wei Lin spoke, his tone became colder, and the gentle smile in his eyes was completely frozen.

    He put everything out there just to let Duan Xi see clearly that he was not a person worth liking.

    He tilted his head slightly, and a sneer without any emotion slowly appeared at the corner of his mouth: “From the beginning to the end, I have been using and calculating you. Are you sure you still like someone who is so selfish to the extreme and will do whatever it takes to achieve his goal?”

    If Duan Xi still likes him for this reason, then…

    “No…”

    Wei Lin’s eyelashes trembled slightly, so subtle that it was almost imperceptible.The person in front of him had already given the answer, and he thought mockingly in his heart: A despicable person like you really doesn’t deserve anyone’s love.

    The night wind, which was still carrying the heat, became colder for some reason, making his body feel chilly.

    He didn’t know whether it was relief or emptiness in his heart. He let go of the clothes in his hands. He sighed in his heart and raised his feet to step back, but was suddenly pulled back by Duan Xi in the next second.

    His eyes were slightly opened, and the coolness in his body was instantly dispelled by Duan Xi’s hot body temperature.

    He heard Duan Xi cover his ear and murmur softly: “I don’t just like you, I love you. No matter how bad or cold-blooded you are, I have fallen in love with you and I can’t change it.”

    At that moment, it seemed as if the world was silent, and Wei Lin could no longer hear any sound except for those low and hoarse confessions.

    He was stunned for a long time, raising his head to prevent his eyes from getting wet with heat.

    When he raised his arms, he realized that his hands were shaking uncontrollably for some reason.

    He slowly put his arm around Duan Xi’s waist and intertwined their fingers.

    “I gave you a chance…”

    He is an extremely selfish person, and Duan Xi insists on provoking him, so Duan Xi must suffer no matter what the outcome.

    The author has something to say: Wei Lin: Don’t love me, there will be no result (indifference)
