"What?"
Qin Shi was slightly stunned and speechless because of the cold words.
"Let's go."
From beginning to end, Qin Xue Xin turned her back to him and didn't look back. After whispering, she flung her sleeves, stepped on the frozen blood, and walked out of the fork.
"What should come has finally come …"
As he gazed at Qin Xuexin's back that was imprinted on the translucent surface of the ice, Qin Shi's heart felt heavy as if it was being pressed down by a boulder. He didn't have the carefree and unrestrained attitude he had in the past, nor did he have the heart to laugh.
Qin Shi lowered his head to hide his pain and plucked the three Emotion Severing Soul Flowers.
He knew that the scene he didn't want to see the most finally came to him irresistibly.
The current Qin Xuexin, whether it was her words or her actions, made him feel an unprecedented sense of strangeness.
In the time it took to drink a cup of tea, she was like a totally different person.
"Heh, heh, can strength really change a person so much?"
Qin Shi didn't know what to say. He didn't know what he should say or what he could say. He just followed her silently.
He didn't expect that there would be such a distance between him and Qin Xue Xin. They were close at hand but seemed to be far apart.
He didn't expect that they would have nothing to say to each other.
He waited, waiting for Qin Xue Xin to look back and for Qin Xue Xin to announce their ending.
"Should this hasty encounter, this messy acquaintance, and this fragile relationship that cannot withstand the slightest wind and rain be exterminated just like that?"
Qin Shi didn't understand. He clenched his fists tightly. However, when they were about to walk out of the fork, Qin Xue Xin still maintained her dignity and arrogance as a Spiritual Lady and didn't look back.
He thought of rushing up to her, questioning her, and asking for help. However, he didn't. It was not because he was arrogant, but because Qin Xue Xin at this time made him feel uncertain.
He didn't know whether Qin Xue Xin still cared about him or not.
His feelings for Qin Xue Xin and Jade In The Book were different.
To Jade In The Book, perhaps it was a kind of dependence, or perhaps it was a kind of familial love. But to Qin Xue Xin, there was indeed a kind of palpitation, the kind of impulse to rush forward regardless of personal safety, the kind of throbbing that had been silent for a long time.
Walking out of the fork, the pungent smell of blood in the Blood River wafted over with the cold wind.
Qin Shi lowered his head and looked at Qin Xue Xin under the Netherworld Ghost Flame. He muttered to himself, "Why?
Was it because time was short?
But haven't we been through life and death together? "
Letting out a heavy breath, Qin Shi sorted out his emotions and tried his best to let go of his worries. He did not want to think about the fate that he could no longer decide.
Walking out of the fork in the center, Qin Shi glanced to his right with the corner of his eye.
At this time, the fork on the right was already filled with blood. It was probably because the mechanism in the middle had been triggered.
"Hehe, this is really embarrassing. I originally wanted to go in and search for treasures, but now I don't even have the chance." Taking advantage of the fork, Qin Shi changed his mood and said this sentence to distract himself.
"You want to go in?"
Unexpectedly, Qin Xue Xin suddenly turned around. Although she was still expressionless, in her beautiful eyes, there was a trace of undetectable warmth.
Qin Shi was stunned and quickly waved his hand, "No, maybe this is fate. I am not fated with the treasures in this fork?
Besides, look at me, Qin Shi, how can I be the kind of person who is obsessed with money? "
Qin Xue Xin was not amused. She nodded, "En, then let's go. I will bring you out of the Passionless Valley."
Leave …
His heart, which had just been raised, immediately fell back down.
"Ha ha, how ironic. In the beginning, I spent so much effort to leave this godforsaken place. Now that I have a way to leave, I am actually feeling reluctant?" Qin Shi laughed bitterly as he thought about it in his heart, his heart wrenching.
He followed Qin Xue Xin and walked out of the cave.
As soon as they walked out of the cave, dozens of blood puppets emerged from the blood lake and pounced towards the two of them.
Hiss!
But in an instant, the blood lake was frozen, and the thirty blood puppets were frozen into ice sculptures.
Although he had seen it before, seeing Qin Xue Xin attack again, Qin Shi still felt that it was inconceivable. Her ability to freeze heaven and earth made him envious and hateful.
Because of this ability, Qin Xue Xin ignored him.
After freezing the blood lake, Qin Xue Xin raised her hand and said to Qin Shi, "Hold me tight."
Qin Shi was stunned. He walked towards her and raised his hand. Looking at the slender body in front of him, he did not know what to do. "You … Are you sure you want me to hold you?"
"What do you think?"
Qin Xue Xin glanced at him and said, "If you don't hold me, how can I bring you out of here?
Do you want to stay in this damn place forever? "
Hearing this, Qin Shi pursed his lips and thought to himself, "Hehe, if I could stay in this Passionless Valley with you like before, it would be a wonderful thing."
"Don't just stand there, I didn't see you embarrassed before!" Seeing that Qin Shi did not reply, Qin Xue Xin urged him.
Qin Shi gritted his teeth and said, "If a girl says that, why should a man like me be embarrassed?
This is not my style. "Thinking about this, he raised his hand and hugged Qin Xue Xin.
Hugging Qin Xue Xin's slender waist, Qin Shi felt a wave of warmth and softness in his palms, causing him to feel a little infatuated. "So soft … I didn't expect it to feel so good without any extra flesh."
While his thoughts were running wild, Qin Shi felt his vision blurred. His feet left the ground and he flew into the sky.
"What!
What's going on? "
This sudden flight caused Qin Shitian to feel dizzy. How could the hand that was hugging Qin Xuexin still have any misgivings?
He grabbed her hand tightly and said, "Big sister, can you shout 'ready' the next time you take off?
You're going to die if you do this. "
"Aren't you still alive?"
Qin Xue Xin rolled her eyes and said, "Can you let go of me?
I don't feel comfortable like this. "
"Ugh!"
Realizing that he had lost his composure, Qin Shi loosened his grip slightly. However, when he looked down at the ground fifty to sixty meters below him, he felt a chill down his spine. He clenched his fists tightly again, "Okay, if I have acrophobia, then I'm really unlucky."
They flew further and further away from the ground. When they reached a thousand meters in the sky, the two of them had already pierced through the clouds. A beautiful mist floated in front of them.
It was like a dreamy fairyland.
This was the first time Qin Shi had flown high up in the sky. The spectacular feeling of stepping through the clouds and touching the sky caused the fighting spirit in his heart to blaze. "Is this the feeling of soaring through the nine heavens and tunneling through the earth?
It's so exciting. One day, I will also reach the Cryptic Spirit Realm and enjoy this kind of feeling. "
His desire to become stronger was like a raging fire.
The Passionless Valley was tens of thousands of meters deep. The two of them spent a whole hour before they pierced through the clouds and saw the blue sky and the clear noon sun.
"The blue sky is here again …"
After not seeing the blue sky for half a month, Qin Shi couldn't help but remember what he had said to Qin Xue Xin at the entrance of the cave.
After flying out of the valley, Qin Xue Xin landed on the cliff.
"Can you let go of me now?" Qin Xuexin hesitated as she steadied herself on the cliff.
"Can you let go of me now?"
Qin Shi felt like he had just woken up from a dream. He awkwardly let go and scratched his head, "Hehe, it's my first time flying, so I'm not used to it yet. I'm sure it'll be better next time."
"I believe that one day, you will be able to travel through this world alone!"
Unexpectedly, Qin Xue Xin suddenly said firmly. Although her tone was still cold and emotionless, it was very exciting for Qin Shi.
"I will definitely!
But I might not be alone! "
Qin Shi put away his unruly smile and looked straight into Qin Xue Xin's eyes. "Next time, let me carry you, okay?"
Hearing this, Qin Xue Xin's body trembled.
She didn't reply. The two of them just looked at each other calmly.
Finally, a chilly wind blew past. Qin Xue Xin suddenly turned her head and looked towards the northwest. "I don't think I'll get another chance."
"Why?"
Qin Shi asked unwillingly.
"There's no why. You and I are not suitable for each other."
Qin Xue Xin replied against her will. No one saw the struggle and pain in her eyes.
"Not suitable?"
"Oh, I see. What a good 'not suitable'."
Qin Shi was startled. His eyes suddenly showed a trace of contempt and sarcasm. He suddenly rushed in front of Qin Xue Xin and laughed at himself. "It's because I'm too small, because I'm of humble origin, because I'm not worthy of you, the spiritual lady of the Blue Cloud Sect, Qin Xue Xin, right?"
"No, it's not like that … It's …"
Seeing the excited Qin Shi, Qin Xue Xin felt a pain in her heart. Her cold face instantly froze.
But when the words came to her mouth, she suddenly swallowed them.
She looked at Qin Shi and wanted to explain, but how should she explain?
There were too many strange things that happened to her over the years. Too many people died because of her.
She really couldn't bear to part with Qin Shi.
Even if she died, she didn't want Qin Shi to die.
Thinking of this, she suddenly made up her mind. She bit her red lips and shouted, "Yes, you're not worthy of me at all. Don't even think about it."
With a few words, the sky seemed to collapse.
Qin Shi's heart was unusually heavy. He didn't speak anymore and stood on the top of the cliff absent-mindedly.
After the quarrel, Qin Xuexin looked at the grief-stricken Qin Shi. She dragged her pink dress, and her heart was bleeding.
She bit her lower lip and didn't say anything.
"Oh, you know that it's not suitable, so why did you enter my heart?
You stole my heart and went through several life-and-death situations to achieve the right result. And now you're telling me that it's not suitable? "Qin Shi said indifferently." Qin Xue Xin, don't you think you're too cruel? "
"I …"
Qin Xue's heart choked up after being questioned so many times.
Yes, although the two of them knew each other for a short time, it couldn't be considered as love at first sight.
Although the two of them didn't make any vows of eternal love to each other.
However, an ignorant seed had long been deeply planted in Qin Shi's heart under the cliff.
Now.
Under the nourishment of day after day, it had gradually taken root and sprouted.
Since Yu Lin 'er hurt the Qin family and broke his spiritual vein, Qin Shi had lost his desire for love.
He even thought that he would never fall in love with someone again.
However, Qin Xue Xin opened up the knot in his heart and gradually dragged him out of that strange circle, so that he tried to accept her again.
"But, but why, why are you so cruel?
When my heart was burning, you poured a basin of cold water on it.
Could it be that women were so fickle?
Don't tell me I don't deserve love? "
Qin Shi's heart was bleeding, as if there was a sharp bayonet cutting his heart one by one.
"Qin Xue Xin, have you ever loved me?"
Suddenly, Qin Shi raised his head and looked straight at Qin Xue Xin.
Qin Xue Xin was stunned, and a ferocious look flashed across her face. But just when she wanted to deceive Qin Shi by shaking his head, she was suddenly stunned by Qin Shi's next sentence.
