Mu Anxiao suddenly lost the courage to face Feng Qishi, so she nodded casually, thinking, "Strange, his voice, why is it so pleasant to hear."
Feng Qishi smiled, "Then I'll go, you hide behind the stall." As he spoke, he reached out to take the Soul Sword.
During this process, her hand and his hand brushed against each other. Yet, this mere touch made Mu Anxiao's heart race again.
A quarter of an hour later.
Xi'er, under the combined assault of the man in black and Mu Anxiao, fled.
After Xi'er escaped, Mu Anxiao was completely overwhelmed. Standing still, she watched Feng Qishi, who was eliminating monsters with the man in black. She raised her hand to gently touch her lips and asked, "Dagger, how will I face him in the future?" As she spoke, she glanced down at the maid who had been knocked unconscious by Xi'er.
Dagger: "You're developing feelings, aren't you?"
"Feelings?"
Mu Anxiao had never known what it felt like to have feelings.
But, hearing Dagger say that, she seemed to understand.
"From the fact that you dare not look directly at Feng Qishi, it can be seen... you're blushing, and to go deeper, it's developing feelings."
"How could that be?" Mu Anxiao didn't want to admit it, then she looked up at Feng Qishi's handsome back as he fought, her gaze flickered, "How could I possibly like him."
"It's... possible, you two just now..." Dagger smiled, "went through that."
"It happened before... but at that time," Mu Anxiao thought of Feng Qishi actively kissing her scene after scene, frowning, "I didn't feel this way."
"It's miraculous that you would even ponder such things," Dagger said indifferently.
Mu Anxiao sighed, "I didn't expect that I..." She stopped halfway, suddenly remembering her identity, and quickly shook her head, "No, I can't like him."
"Why?"
"I am an immortal, my master said I must sever all emotions and desires. Now," Mu Anxiao glanced at Feng Qishi's side, "if I say I like him, Master... will definitely expel me. I don't want to marry Shen Fengzi, if I marry him, it would be too strange."
"How is it strange?"
"Think about it," Mu Anxiao said, "he and I are partners. If I marry him, then we are destined to not be partners. Not only that, what if it affects my cultivation? Marriage is a troublesome matter. What I want is freedom, not marriage." She thought everything through clearly to sober herself up.
Dagger never expected that this silly Mu Anxiao could think through problems so thoroughly.
Listening to her, Dagger also had a new opinion of Mu Anxiao, "I think you're overthinking it."
"Some problems must be thought through clearly to avoid future regrets."
"Your current feelings for Feng Qishi are just a temporary infatuation, and have no direct connection to the future," Dagger said.
"He said he wants to marry me." Mu Anxiao said, suddenly becoming shy.
Dagger deeply felt Mu Anxiao's heart beating violently again, and smiled helplessly, "I didn't expect you to have such a side to you, it's truly terrifying."
"..." Hearing Dagger's words, Mu Anxiao's face turned cold, "What do you mean by that?"
"It means nothing," Dagger dared not say more.
Over there.
Feng Qishi and the man in black exchanged a glance, and together they eliminated the last monster.
The mortals watching the scene before them cheered.
However, the cheers of the mortals once again roused Mu Anxiao. She looked up, then looked at the mortals who were cheering for Feng Qishi and the man in black. She shook her head, looked down at the awakened maid, and said, "You're awake." As she spoke, she squatted down and personally helped the maid up.
The maid stared blankly at Mu Anxiao and asked, "Did she leave?"
Just now, after failing to fight the man in black, Xi'er had come to provoke Mu Anxiao. At that time, it was fortunate that Mu Anxiao reacted quickly and conjured the silver rope, otherwise... the maid would have been more than just knocked unconscious.
"Yes, she left."
"Thank you." The maid sat up, looking fragilely at Mu Anxiao and asked, "Mu Xi, is she really dead?"
Mu Anxiao: "..." She nodded slightly, thinking there was no need to hide it.
The maid gave a wry smile, "She was killed by Xi'er, right?" She was no longer confused.
Mu Anxiao's eyes darkened, thinking of how Mu Xi had died, she nodded, not daring to say more.
The maid fell silent.
Seeing the maid's silence, Mu Anxiao sighed.
Minutes later.
The maid said, "If there is an afterlife, I hope to meet him again. I want to tell him 'I'm sorry' in person." Saying that, she stood up.
Seeing this, Mu Anxiao also stood up with her. Just as she was about to speak, Xi'er suddenly appeared behind the maid. Mu Anxiao saw this, and just as she was about to reach out and pull the maid, Xi'er's hand pierced through the maid's body.
Everything happened so suddenly. Mu Anxiao looked with horror, slowly lowering her head to look at the hand that had gone straight through the maid's body, her eyes wide.
Xi'er did not withdraw her hand, but instead calmly glanced at Feng Qishi and the others, saying, "Your person killed my monster, and I killed her. There's no problem with that." As she spoke, she looked at Mu Anxiao with a cold expression.
Mu Anxiao couldn't recover. She stared intently at Xi'er's blood-stained single hand, and the dripping blood, saying, "You've gone too far." As she spoke, she glared angrily at Xi'er.
Xi'er smiled, "Too far? Your person killed twenty monsters, and I killed one of you, so what?" She knew she couldn't defeat Mu Anxiao, so she deliberately provoked her.
Mu Anxiao's eyes were fixed on Xi'er, her fists clenched. Just as she was about to grab her hand, Xi'er directly pulled her hand out of the maid's body.
Immediately, blood gushed out, splattering Mu Anxiao all over. The maid looked at Mu Anxiao with vacant eyes and fell backward.
Xi'er took a step back, glanced at her hand, and smiled, "Until we meet again." Saying that, she turned and disappeared.
This was the past, and Mu Anxiao had no right to change it further. Helplessly, she could only give up pursuing Xi'er and quickly stepped forward, squatting beside the maid who had completely fallen. She remained silent.
The maid's face was covered in blood. Her eyes unfocused, staring somewhere, she slowly raised her hand and said, "I... I... this... is this retribution?"
"No," Mu Anxiao trembled as she held the maid's hand, tears streaming down her cheeks. She bent down and put her ear close to the maid's lips.
"This is my retribution," the maid weakly tried to pull Mu Anxiao's hand, only being held by Mu Anxiao, continuing, "I... only have... one wish... let me... be buried with Mu Xi, I... want... to accompany him, I... thank you." Her voice was very, very soft, but Mu Anxiao heard it clearly.
"What's your name?" Mu Anxiao choked, her tears falling onto the maid's face.
The maid: "My name is... Xin'er, the character with the radical for grass... and the character for heart below it, Xin'er... Thank you."
