Chapter 18 (1/2)

The snake de tiazed at his back She had no words to say

The one who broke the deathly stillness was unexpectedly the one sitting on the other side of the bed, Tian Yao: ”I'm sorry” His tone was low, and his aura was empty It was obvious his body was still in bad shape

The snake de time before he stirred His head drooped He stroked ran his hands over the bed and came across a wooden hairpin encased in ice This hairpin orn by Zhenren Qi Yun earlier

It was probably the only thing that didn't disappear along with Zhenren Qi Yun

The snake dehtly in his hand The coldness covered his hand in frost: ”I don't bla the hairpin turned white frorip ”It was ht It see squeezed out from his throat ”It was me!” Tears fell from his eyes He bent and collapsed over the daybed His entire body shook, and his voice was filled with sobs: ”I caused her death I caused her death”

Yan Hui heard his words, and she tightly clenched her fists

The snake deot louder, like a child who had fallen It sounded like his heart was breaking He cried his lungs out, drowning out all other sounds

Yan Hui looked down Her mind endlessly repeated Zhenren Qi Yun's tords, ”Stop him” She wanted Yan Hui to stop him

Zhenren Qi Yun died from the hoarfrost Technique Aside from her shi+fu, no one could cast the spell with that ferocity No one else could cast it at such a degree The person Zhenren Qi Yun wanted her to stop couldn't have been anyone else

Zhenren Qi Yun's death couldn't be blamed on Tian Yao, not on the snake demon, but should be blamed on

”Why!” His shoulders tensed, and the snake de Xiao kill Qi Yun?!” He cried out angrily

Yan Hui's face was pale For a short period, she couldn't get a single word out She silently looked at the snake de time before she faintly said: ”I can't think of any reason”

It was like the snake de her All the while, he kept asking: ”Why would he kill her! Why kill her!?”

Yan Hui only shook her head: ”I don't know”

Her mind was a mess For a moment it would be Zhenren Qi Yun's ice-covered appearance The nexther the sword-dance on the mountain peak since childhood The nextthrown out of theat her But in the end, Yan Hui started to cal in front of her and holding her hand, saying:

”Hold this sword in your hand Keep benevolence and righteousness in your heart You cannot harm fellow sect members nor practitioners of the sath to oppress others You cannot be arrogant or conceited”

It was like a clear voice had washed away Yan Hui's confusion

She should believe in hi his beliefs, even if others suspect Ling Xiao, she shouldn't doubt him

Yan Hui looked at the snake de at so!” The snake demon released Yan Hui With one hand, he flipped the table His face revealed his agitation: ”Qi Yun died from the hoarfrost's backlash!+ In this world, who else besides your master is that proficient in frost techniques?! Who else could cast that spell on Qi Yun?!”

Yan Hui was silent for a while before she said: ”I don't know, butXiao is cruel and apathetic toward demons That is true I don't deny that he is old-fashi+oned and inflexible, but because he is this kind of person, he has discipline He abides by the Dao, values benevolence, and respects righteousness He would never injure fellow practitioners”

Yan Hui fixed her eyes on the snake dehtly htful

The snake de the wooden hairpin He was silent again for a long tiritted his teeth: ”Qi Yun's death, even if I have to spend the rest of my life, I will find the truth I will definitely deal with the culprit” He looked at Yan Hui ”Even if the opponent is even stronger, I ret”

Yan Hui didn't say anything The snake demon turned and walked into Zhenren Qi Yun's room: ”I won't see you two off”

The snake deure tidying Qi Yun's daybed His back seemed melancholy

Actually, since such a short tihtly held the blankets, he should still be able to feel the warmth from Qi Yun's body

Yan Hui didn't dare think further

Tian Yao got off the daybed, put on his shoes, and started to walk outside: ”Let's go” He only said those tords Actually, Yan Hui didn't knohere they were going or why she was still following Tian Yao

It was just that after hearing the command, she would follow him She actually had no opinion

Yan Hui silently followed Tian Yao the entire way She was in a fugue When they reached the fields, the fierce sun threw shadows into sharp relief besides the fields Tian Yao suddenly asked: ”How did Zhenren Ling Xiao ly in him?”

Yan Hui probably needed soht now She dipped her head and looked off into the distance The sun beat down onto the fields ItThe road up ahead seee dance

Yan Hui's voice was also like this heat, faintly discernible: ”A few years ago, my rooht I had stolen it She and a few other senior disciples grouped up to block ot down from the trial platform She and I spoke civilly, but Zi Yue still took offense She couldn't accept it and started to argue with me At that moment, the Head Senior Disciple came across the scene He came to mediate, but actually he said he wished that I would return Zi Yue'sso, he pushed the ”thief” label onto me My temper flared up, and I beat up the senior disciples and the Head Senior Disciple”

”” Tian Yao tilted his head and glanced at Yan Hui: ”Sounds like so you would do”

”I was the victor, but it was no use I was punished to kneel in front of Qing Xin Shrine It was late at night when shi+fu ca to scold me, criticize my stubborn and unruly behavior, my quick temper However, that time he didn't He said he believed me”

Yan Hui said: ”Everyone believed I was the thief, but he wouldn't He punished me because I hurt my fellow sect hteousness in mind, to not hurt fellow sect th to oppress others, not being arrogant nor conceited He is this kind of person” Yan Hui stood in place ”Anyone can harm Zhenren Qi Yun, but my shi+fu won't” She raised her head and locked onto Tian Yao ”I'm like this I believe in him without any proof”
