Chapter 278 The two people gradually approached
The two of them froze in silence and could see their figures reflected in each other's pupils.
In Yun Yun's eyes, the young man was very handsome, and his smile was very gentle as if it could infect people's hearts.
In Xiao Se's sight, Yun Yun's skin was like white snow in winter, and her dark eyes, mixed with a hint of worry and shyness, seemed to be rippling, and her long eyelashes swayed gently with every blink. Under her beautiful eyes was a beautiful and pointed nose, and slightly open red lips.
At this moment, the world seemed to be completely quiet, with only two people left.
Perhaps because of the lower temperature at night, or perhaps for other reasons, Yun Yun's weak shoulders trembled slightly, and her beautiful black hair swayed with it.
Seeing this scene, the young man jumped off the boulder and stood in front of Yun Yun.
Yun Yun's eyes subconsciously followed the boy's figure. Under her slightly panicked gaze, Xiao Se untied his black and gold-studded robe without any hesitation and draped it over her trembling body.
The two men looked at each other, their eyes at their noses, their noses at their hearts, they stared at each other and watched each other.
At this moment, the world was so quiet that they could hear each other's pounding heartbeats and slightly rapid breathing.
"You"×2
"I"×2
"You speak first."×2The
two of them smiled.
"You speak first." Xiao Se said.
"Hmm." Yun Yun hesitated for a moment, her eyes still not moving away from Xiao Se's face. She said shyly and hesitantly, "Have we met somewhere before?"
"Maybe, but you are more beautiful now than you were then, Yunzhi." Xiao Se laughed softly.
"At that time?" Hearing this, Yun Yun was stunned. She subconsciously looked at Xiao Se again, but she saw the treasure bag and the belt inlaid with jade pieces that Xiao Se had put on his waist. It had been covered by the black and gold-studded robe before. Suddenly, she realized and asked in surprise: "You are Xiao Huohuo?"
"Long time no see, Sect Master Yun Yun." Xiao Se took out the golden silkworm mask from the ring with a smile, put it on to transform it into the appearance of Xiao Huohuo, and chuckled.
"You..." Seeing Xiao Se put on the mask and turned back into the familiar young face, Yun Yun's eyes flashed with disbelief, and then her pretty face flushed. After all this time, the other party already knew her identity, but she had always regarded herself as Yun Zhi in front of him.
"Sorry. I didn't mean to lie to you." Yun Yun's pretty face flushed and she said apologetically with an evasive look.
"It's okay. As the saying goes, one should always be on guard against others. Haven't I changed my appearance before?" Xiao Se took off the golden silkworm mask, smiled, and suddenly said, "Besides, I like the way you look now. Yunzhi."
"Thank you?!" Yun Yun lowered her head upon hearing that, revealing a shy look of a little woman.
Seeing Yun Yun's expression change, Xiao Se skipped the previous topic and said, "Since everyone can't sleep, why don't we have a good chat here to relieve boredom? What do you think?"
"Okay." Yun Yun did not refuse. At this moment, she only felt her heart pounding. This was something she had never experienced before in all her years of cultivation. Could it be that she was attracted to this little guy in front of her?
Hearing Yun Yun's agreement, Xiao Se smiled slightly, put his arms around her slender waist, jumped onto the black boulder, put her down gently, and then lay down directly, with his hands on the back of his neck, admiring the starry sky.
Being suddenly brought to the boulder, Yun Yun was a little at a loss. Looking at Xiao Se lying on the boulder, she tightened the black robe inlaid with gold on her body, and then lay down, just a few feet away from Xiao Se.
"Feeling good, right?" Xiao Se asked casually, his eyes still fixed on the stars.
"Yeah." Yun Yun responded.
The two of them said nothing more, and the valley returned to silence.
After a long time, Yun Yun suddenly said, "Can you tell me why you want to hide your identity at the Alchemist Conference? It's okay if you don't want to tell me. I'm just curious and just asking."
"Because at that time I didn't have the power to protect myself. As a small alchemist who was not even a Dou Ling, I had no backing. I had to be careful wherever I went, and I also had to be wary of the gazes of certain people in the dark." Xiao Se said lightly.
"Someone in secret?" Yun Yun didn't understand what she meant, but she didn't ask any more questions. She just wanted to relieve the panic and throbbing in her heart and divert her attention.
"Don't you want to ask me why I rejected your two invitations?" Xiao Se turned over, facing Yun Yun, and said with a smile.
"Then tell me." Hearing this, Yun Yun also became interested. She turned her head to look at Xiao Se but found that he was staring at her quietly. She saw a strange look in his eyes.
She had seen this kind of strange color before, but no one had ever dared to show it so obviously in front of her.
Even Gu He, who was known as the best alchemist in the Jia Ma Empire and the King of Alchemy, only kept it hidden in his heart and dared not reveal it.
But the little guy in front of him showed it.
And there is no concealment at all.
Xiao Se still looked at Yun Yun quietly and smiled, "Because I don't want to be your apprentice."
"That's right. With your qualifications, even a Dou Zong master is not qualified to be your teacher." Yun Yun looked away, looking a little gloomy.
"No, you misunderstood what I meant." Xiao Se shook his head.
"Why is that?" Yun Yun asked curiously.
"Becoming a master and disciple means that the relationship between us will be constrained and influenced by preconceived notions. Perhaps I will always be just an excellent disciple in your heart. But on the contrary, I don't want to be your disciple. I want to understand you more deeply and take care of you."
As Xiao Se finished speaking, Yun Yun's cheeks became redder and redder, and finally, even her neck was stained with a layer of pink.
He never said a word of love the whole time, but these words were more practical than any confession.
To sum it up in four words, it's 'love at first sight'.
Thinking back carefully, Xiao Se was surrounded by thousands of beauties at the Alchemist Conference. Even her disciple Nalan Yanran showed a hint of affection for her, but Xiao Se completely turned a deaf ear to them. Instead, she looked at him strangely on several occasions.
At that time, she thought she was overthinking it, but now looking back, she realized that maybe the boy had already fallen in love with her at that time.
With a variety of complex emotions such as nervousness, joy, shyness, and melancholy, Yun Yun's brain was working rapidly, and quietly, she fell asleep.
That night, she slept peacefully, as if she was nestled in a warm embrace as if she had someone to rely on, and she had never felt so comfortable before.
However, when she woke up, she found that the huge rock beneath her was not cold at all, but seemed to be heated by something and was very warm. The black robe inlaid with gold was still covering her, and there was a storage ring on the ring finger of her left hand and a letter in her arms.
As for the young man, his whereabouts were unknown.
