Chapter 13 You Are For Yourself

Liu Xubai stared blankly at Shu Nong's eyes.

These eyes, for 600 years, he has been seeking day by day and thinking about them every night, but he has never seen them again. They only appeared in his dreams on countless nights.

It's like a dream come true, but also a nightmare.

Shu Nong's eyes were clear and bright, like the crystals on the surface of a clear lake, he didn't find any hatred towards him, or other emotions he expected.

Liu Xubai stretched out his hand to grab Shu Nong's fingertips, but still only touched a piece of nothingness again, he couldn't even touch the corner of Shu Nong's clothes, he could only repeat again and again in vain.

Beads of sweat slid down his face, the surrounding temperature rose, and the surging hot air forcefully broke through his spiritual power, wrapping the whole room together with him in the hot air.

The hair on Liu Xubai's forehead had already been wet, sticking wetly to his face, he was very embarrassed.

He couldn't touch Shu Nong, his eyes fell on her face.

He was in a state of distress, his back was already wet with sweat, it seemed that in the blink of an eye, beads of sweat had slipped from his eyes, but Shu Nong in front of him was still clean and fresh, she was so close, he could even faintly see the small and slender face on her face. fluff.

Liu Xubai's gaze moved down and landed on her index finger pointing at him. Her palm should have calluses from years of sword practice, but her fingers were slender and fair. That familiar little mole.

Shu Nong sized him up for a moment, then stood up with a smile, with a bit of irony in his tone: "Let me guess, your demon, you are not born because of me, right?"

She lowered her head and looked down at him, Liu Xubai lowered her eyebrows and remained silent for a long time, she opened her mouth slightly, but couldn't speak a word.

What should he say?

Said he felt guilty after killing her?Said that he only found out after she died that he loved her so much that he couldn't forget it, so he had a demon?
Even if he had too many sophistry and explanations, he wanted to make amends and get forgiveness, but Shu Nong was already gone.

She appeared in front of him, but he couldn't even touch a corner of her clothes.

He has no chance to be forgiven, he and Shu Nong have been separated for a long time, and he can't even call back her soul, even a little bit of consciousness that doesn't belong to her.

If there is an afterlife, Shu Nong may have already been reincarnated. Before crossing the Naihe Bridge, one of the wishes she made must be to never see him again. From then on, she would never want to see him again.

Shu Nong has been paying attention to his expression, how can he not understand what his reaction at this moment represents, and suddenly snorts: "Really?"

She turned around, sat down on the chair casually, condensed into a solid body, and played with the piece of pastry she bit into just now. She looked at the pastry in her hand, but she was speaking to Liu Xubai.

"This Cangyuan Sword Sect, does anyone know that you have a heart demon?" She smiled, "If they knew, how did you tell them? Did you say it was because you loved too much? Obsession Is it too deep?"

She turned her head to look at him, with crooked eyebrows and a nasty smile on her face: "After all, that's what people outside are saying now."

"Affection is such a useful reason." Shu Nong dropped the pastry casually, resting his cheek with one hand, and lightly touched the pastry that had just fallen back into the plate with the other hand, "With such an excuse in front of you, you are born Heart demons, setting up a soul summoning station, and finding beautiful women have all become reasonable."

"No matter what you do from now on, as long as you have something to do with me, someone will sigh and say "I'm a lover, right?"

Shu Nong tilted his head slightly, and wrinkled his nose: "Everyone else thinks that you are deeply in love with me, you are infatuated—" She paused, "Tsk", "You think so too, don't you? "

She didn't give Liu Xubai a chance to speak, she propped her chin and continued: "I don't deny our previous relationship, and I don't question whether the affection you are showing at this moment is true or false, but you wish everyone knew about you Never forgetting about me, wantonly proclaiming his deep love, Liu Xubai—”

She finally called out his name again, but what she said drove him into the boundless abyss.

"Don't you feel sick?"

Liu Xubai lowered his head and was silent for a long time: "...I—"

Shu Nong still didn't give him a chance: "But I feel disgusted. The relationship between you and me may be true, but I still feel disgusted. As long as I think of our relationship in the past, I will feel disgusted."

She got up again, came to him, and looked down at him condescendingly: "The relationship between you and me is that you are the murderer and I am the deceased. Is it because you like me that you have a demon and set up a soul-calling station? Does the person in his hands have obsessions, and even have inner demons because of it? Will the murderer summon the soul of the person who died in his hands every year?"

She leaned down, her smile faded, and she looked straight into his eyes: "Liu Xubai, you did all of this for yourself. You thought you were tortured by demons and recruited the soul of a person who would never see you every year. Immersing yourself in guilt every day is atonement or an apology? Why do you have the face to attract my soul?"

She stood up straight, tilted her head slightly and smiled: "Atonement isn't like that, and apology isn't like that."

She sneered, crossed her arms and walked away.

At this moment Liu Xubai woke up like a dream, stood up and wanted to grab Shu Nong's clothes: "Don't go!"

Unfortunately, as always, he still couldn't touch Shu Nong at all, he could only watch Shu Nong pass through the closed door and disappear.

"Shu Nong!"

Liu Xubai only has one hand to hold the air.

As soon as Shu Nong left, the temperature of the whole room dropped rapidly, directly returning to the original temperature, one hot and one cold, Liu Xubai was in a mess, and suddenly felt a burst of coolness, just like a big dream.

Liu Xubai closed his eyes firmly, sat down again, calmed down his emotions, and then slowly opened his eyes, trying to shake this unrealistic dream out of his mind.

But after he cleared his mind, he suddenly realized that what happened just now was not a dream at all.

Shu Nong's broken cups are still on the ground, the pastries she discarded after one bite fell on the plate, his sweaty hair and clothes are all real.

Liu Xubai stood up abruptly, and took a few steps to open the door.

The outside of the house was already shrouded in darkness, he walked a few steps forward, just in time to bump into Lu Wangyi coming from a distance.

Lu Wangyi and Qin Tang had dinner together, drank a little wine by the way, and walked back slowly through the night. Not long after they entered their mountain, they bumped into the embarrassed master.

Lu Wangyi was immediately frightened and didn't know what to do.

It was the first time he saw Liu Xubai who looked like this, with disheveled hair, reddish eyes, and chaotic steps.

Lu Wangyi was curious, but he didn't dare to take a second look.

Liu Xubai took the initiative to come to him, his voice hoarse: "You came in just now, did you see someone going out?"
