Chapter 76: Qianbei Ye’s Fury (3)

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Gu Ruoyun finally regained her senses and she blinked. "What are you talking about? Why would I be angry? But, Xiao Ye, I never thought that you would have such power after you lost your memories. You even knocked Ling Xi out within a second."

Qianbei Ye looked carefully at Gu Ruoyun. "Xiao Yun, you’re…not angry at me?"

"Why would I be angry at you?" Gu Ruoyun looked slightly puzzled as she asked, confused.

Feeling as if he had just gone to heaven after returning from hell, Qianbei Ye hugged Gu Ruoyun excitedly, holding her tightly in his embrace.

Gu Ruoyun was dumbfounded, staying on the spot as though she had just been electrocuted.

Truth be told, she had a certain liking towards Qianbei Ye. She could not explain it herself, but she truly believed that he would not harm her. That trust was also peculiar. Even Gu Ruoyun herself did not fully understand it.

However, this hug had her stunned. Since their acquaintance until now, Xiao Ye had never made such an intimate move before.

"Xiao Yun, thank you. I thought that you were angry because I was too cruel. That’s why I was afraid...afraid that you won’t talk to me anymore." Qianbei Ye hugged Gu Ruoyun tightly as he continued, "Xiao Yun, I will never let you be harmed again. I will never leave your side, because I don’t want to see you bleed. If not, I will hurt here."

Qianbei Ye pointed at his chest, frowning slightly.

"I don’t know why, but I was always longing for you. Also, it was your coming here which made me awaken from my slumber. Xiao Yun, do you think that it was fate that brought us together?"

"Fate, huh?"

Gu Ruoyun slowly closed her eyes. In that moment, a cold face appeared in her mind…

That person was the one she had trusted the most! Or else, she would not have entrusted her own brother to his care! But in the end, he had betrayed her for his own greed, and mercilessly amputated Yu’er…

When she thought back on that moment, her heart could not help but throb with pain. That heart-wrenching pain would be hard to forget even after a few lifetimes…

"Fate?"

Suddenly, a soft laugh came from beside them. Gu Ruoyun slowly recovered from her daze and looked at Shi Yun who was walking towards her.

However, Shi Yun’s gaze was transfixed on Qianbei Ye.

"Actually, sometimes feelings may deceive you, especially in your case, when you have lost your memories."

If it were fate, then it would be her and him…Gu Ruoyun was but a good-for-nothing! How could she fight hand-to-hand with this man? Besides herself, nobody in the whole Mainland could stand by his side.

Qianbei Ye frowned. He tugged subconsciously on Ruoyun’s sleeve as he said with a weak tone, "Little Yun, I don’t like seeing too many strangers. Can we go back and rest?"

He could not put a finger on it, but the woman in front of him gave him an uneasy feeling. That feeling made him want to get away from her.

"Alright. I don’t like these people as well."

Gu Ruoyun nodded, then she remembered something and made her way slowly to Luo Yin’s side. "Luo Yin, I’m sorry. I have dragged you into my own mess."

Luo Yin shook her head. "I should be the one to say sorry. If it weren’t for me, you wouldn’t…"

When she thought of that alarmingly dangerous scene, her heart tightened. If Qianbei Ye had not arrived in the nick of time, she would not have forgiven herself for as long as she lived.

"Don’t worry, Ling Xi cannot kill me."

Gu Ruoyun smiled. Even if Qianbei Ye did not intervene, she still had her trump card in the form of Zixie. But unless it was a dire situation, she would not let Zixie show himself…

"Hold it!"

Seeing that Gu Ruoyun was about to leave, a voice came from behind them.

Shi Yun smiled gently. "Gu Ruoyun, I actually admire you very much. Not only were you lucky enough to obtain the Crippled Spirit Weapon, you even used it to defeat Ling Xi. Even though your talents were nothing special, you have exceptionally good luck, especially…"

She paused briefly before continuing, "You picked up this man who lost his memories, and filled his mind with the notion that you two were fated, leading him to firmly believe that you were the one he’s looking for. However, the truth will prevail eventually. I hope that you take care of yourself."
