He watched Huohuo with deep love in his eyes and a faint smile on his lips. “Huohuo, long time no see. It appears you have finally found the person that you have been waiting for.”
At this moment, Huohuo’s cheeks were already streaming with tears that covered her youthful face. “Ah Ye… I finally get to see you again.”
A thousand years later, they met again, but it was under these circumstances…
“Huohuo, back then, I had no alternative but to leave you, but I accidentally lost my life on a mountain peak. In the process of preserving this spirit form to see you once more, I exhausted all of my power. If it weren’t for Jing Jiang’s appearance, I wouldn’t be able to leave that place and wouldn’t have seen you again.”
The man’s gentle eyes had only Huohuo’s figure in them, and his tone was gentle. “Previously, my spirit form resided in Jing Jiang’s body, so I recovered my strength while I was at it. My purpose was to wait for your appearance. I originally only wanted to sneak a glance at you and then enter reincarnation. Who would have expected…”
“Ah Ye, you bastard!” Huohuo swiftly darted to the man, her fists fiercely pounding on his chest as she hoarsely screamed, “If I didn’t encounter danger, were you planning to not appear at all? You saw me being bullied, you saw me hurt and heartbroken, but you still didn’t plan to appear?”
No wonder… no wonder she could feel Ah Ye’s presence in Jing Jiang. It turned out Ah Ye’s spirit used Jing Jiang’s body as a house and lived there.
She misunderstood everything! Ah Ye did not forget her nor did he fall in love with someone else! She mistook someone else as Ah Ye.
“Huohuo.” The man grasped Huohuo’s fists, his voice turning gentler. “I was truly at fault for this matter. I didn’t want to let you see the current me, but I didn’t expect you to be in so much sorrow. Sorry, I was wrong…”
Huohuo’s sobbing abruptly halted, and she looked up with blurry eyes, his figure reflecting from her clear eyes.
“Ah Ye, I missed you…”
The man patted her shoulders, and his cold and fierce eyes turned to the old man. “After crippling your own strength, leave here. Otherwise, I will kill you!”
The old man’s expression abruptly shifted, and he sent a fearful glance toward this gentle and refined man. He hardened his heart and said, “This matter has nothing to do with me, go find people from the Ling Family. I’m merely a passerby.”
“Sir Hui Yi, you can’t do that.” Family Head Ling’s expression changed on the spot. “Didn’t you want to encircle and annihilate Ghost Emperor? Our Ling Family’s strength is quite decent and can certainly help you. I beg you to save me!”
Ghost Emperor?
Boom!
An aura suddenly burst out of Yun Luofeng, and her wicked eyes coldly watched Family Head Ling. She asked, “You mentioned the Ghost Emperor?”
Family Head Ling was started, not understanding the meaning of Yun Luofeng’s question.
“Is the Ghost Emperor who you speak of a young man?”
Family Head Ling glanced at Yun Luofeng. “I’m not sure. They say that the Ghost Emperor always wears a mask and doesn’t show his true appearance to people.”
A mask?
Yun Luofeng’s eyes slightly dimmed, and the smile on her lips revealed a chilly air.
“I don’t care who is the Ghost Emperor that you speak of! I only know that you mentioned Ghost Emperor and even claim to want to annihilate him! Based on this point alone, you deserve to die!”
She did not know whether the Ghost Emperor they mentioned was Yun Xiao…
