Chapter 222

This voice was coming from outside the palace but it also seemed to be ringing in their ears.

Although no one could yet be seen, just the voice alone made people easily visualize that unruly red-haired man.

Chu MuYun calmed down completely. He looked at Shen ShuiYan and asked softly, “Do you want to continue?”

They were still doing the most intimate thing.

Shen ShuiYan stared at him silently.

Chu MuYun turned his head slightly and said slowly, “Xiao-Yan, I’m sorry.”

When Shen ShuiYan heard his words, he only felt that it was ironic to the extreme. He lowered his head, bit Chu MuYun’s exposed white neck fiercely and tasted blood. Traces were left but it was not enough, how could it be?!

A thousand years of not being sure of each other, three thousand years of fear and anxiety, the unwillingness to recognize him after meeting again. In the end he finally only got these three words in exchange, how can he be reconciled?

Chu MuYun didn’t fight him and let him toss and turn at will, but his pair of eyes seemed to have left his body, looking at him indifferently as though from a very high place.

Watching him lose his temper, watching him go mad, watching him fall into a ruthless emotion, into a state of embarrassment and misery.

An unspeakable sense of humiliation rose from the bottom of Shen ShuiYan’s heart. This was not just form this very moment. It was something that had been building up for a long, long time, after countless desperate and painful struggles and wanderings.

If I kill him, will he belong to me?

Shen ShuiYan’s heart was full of crazy thoughts without reason, but he knew very sadly that it was useless. Killing him would just gave him a chance to escape.

But…he couldn’t hold him back.

Seized by strong emotions, what Shen ShuiYan felt in his heart was an unspeakable sense of helplessness.

I only care about this one person all my life, and even the meaning of life is tied to him, but this person does not want to belong to him.

Chu MuYun’s demeanor was very calm. He looked at the Shen ShuiYan gently and even put a soothing kiss on his forehead. His voice seemed to have crossed time and space and returned to the time when we first met.

The strong him, the young him.

The sound was like hot sand, flowing in his ears, covering his entire life warmly.

“It’s my fault, don’t cry.”

Shen ShuiYan finally stopped moving, he looked at Chu MuYun and tears fell silently, but there was no fragile emotion on his delicate face but only a strong pressure. It is especially shocking when contrasted with his deep emotions.

“Why?”

Chu MuYun closed his eyes: “There is no reason, it is in the past.”

Shen ShuiYan stared at him firmly: “So you don’t want me anymore?”

Chu MuYun said softly: “After I die, I will forget a lot of things, sometimes if it is too painful, I will forget more, but slowly I will remember some vague pictures.”

Chu MuYun had never mentioned these things before and Shen ShuiYan felt at loss for a while, he couldn’t decide whether to believe him or not.

He could only listen to him continue: “For example… I remember that I loved someone deeply, sometimes he is a cute boy, sometimes he is a handsome adult, I remember him but I can’t see him clearly but this feeling will surround me from time to time.”

“Actually, it’s better to forget about the past and present, so that I can live a new life, but I can’t seem to forget it.”

“But it’s all the past, even if I think about it again, so what? In the days when I lost my memory, I started a new life, I met other people and I met people I cared about… I can’t always live in the past and carry everything on my back…”

Chu MuYun shook his head in pain: “…the debt I owe is too much, I… can’t pay it back.”

After saying this, he raised his head again and looked at Shen ShuiYan seriously: “Xiao-Yan, when I die, I am no longer Shen Yun. I am no longer Ling Mu. I…”

 Shen ShuiYan looked at him without blinking, as if to distinguish the truth from the falsehood.

Is what he was saying true? Is Ah-Yun lying to him? Was this a lie told to him so he could leave?

For four thousand years, he has learnt too much, so he no longer knows how to believe him.

Chu MuYun couldn’t see what he was thinking.

He slowly lowered his eyes, his voice was still calm, but his fingers were clenched and his knuckles were white.

 “Look, you can’t even trust me anymore. If two people lose even the most basic trust, they will torture each other by being together. We should…”

“I believe you.” Shen ShuiYan interrupted him. He spoke in a cold but persistent tone, “I believe everything you said.”

Chu MuYun looked up at him suddenly.

Shen ShuiYan sighed softly and said softly: “Give me a chance, okay? I won’t hurt you again, I won’t let you die, you stay by my side, just look at me, only think about me, you don’t need to worry about the others. You don’t need to carry anything, I can help you solve it all, all you need is…”

Chu MuYun was stunned.

Shen ShuiYan found out and saw the pain flashing in Chu MuYun’s eyes.

Immediately afterwards, like a flood of beasts, terrifying dark emotions welled up and, in an instant, the gentle warmth that had finally risen in his heart was swallowed up.

His voice lost its warmth: “You can’t let Ling Xuan go.”

Chu MuYun’s body froze.

Shen ShuiYan’s hoarse tone was full of paranoia and despair: “You don’t care about me at all,  you claim to be burdened with everything but, in fact, you have already put it all down. You’ve forgotten about me, forgotten about Mo JiuShao, forgotten about Xie QianLan, you are only thinking about that lunatic outside!”

Chu MuYun’s face went pale. His back was straight, his thin lips were tightly pursed and he refused to say any more.

But sometimes, silence will reveal the answer.

Shen ShuiYan stood up suddenly, his eyes were completely dark black and dull: “Wait for me to come back.”

Chu MuYun realized what he was going to do. He wanted to follow and said anxiously: “What are you going to do!”

The corner of Shen ShuiYan’s mouth evoked a strange arc: “Don’t you know?”

Seeing the unease in Chu MuYun’s eyes, a malicious pleasure rose in Shen ShuiYan’s heart and he whispered: “I killed Xie QianLan and now I can also kill Ling Xuan!”

“Shen ShuiYan!” Chu MuYun almost never called out his full name.

Shen ShuiYan smiled even more beautifully, he raised his hand, grabbed Chu MuYun’s chin and said infinitely tenderly, “Ah-Yun, I can’t live without you, so…it doesn’t matter what I do, as long as I can get you.” 

There was a trace of panic in Chu MuYun’s eyes and he tried to hold onto him, but his body’s cultivation was not enough, so how could he stop him?

Shen ShuiYan walked out of the room, raised his hand to remove the defensive formation surrounding the entire palace,and faced Ling Xuan.

The wind was surging, and the man who fell like a crimson light was as handsome as the rising sun.

Not seen for three thousand years, the simple little wolf dog had disappeared, replaced by an arrogant and unrestrained, angry emperor who was full of flamboyance and wantonness.

Chu MuYun followed behind, looked up and met Ling Xuan’s eyes.

Ling Xuan’s thin lips were slightly hooked, and the smile was full of jokes: “DuoDuo, I’m here to pick you up!”

Chu MuYun: “…”
