Chapter 36 Qinghan, your husband is mine now.
After a long silence, she composed herself and said, "It seems that Gu Feixue told you all of this, right?"
Xu Tianyi raised an eyebrow: "Pretty much, but none of that matters. What matters is our story going forward."
Ning Hongye shook his head: "Where is Gu Feixue?"
"No, you want to kill her?"
Ning Hongye snorted coldly: "To save his own life, he took my unfaithful father with him and ran away, which is why my mother was possessed because she was heartbroken. Originally, it was she who should have been possessed!"
Under the dim light, she gritted her teeth, but her face didn't show any resolute determination.
After learning everything, she discovered that her best friend's mother was actually the murderer who indirectly caused her own mother's death.
Back then, when she left with the King of Qi, her mother must have thought they had eloped.
Her best friend and the man she loved abandoned her and ran away, without even telling her when they fled for their lives.
What a desperate feeling!
Xu Tianyi sighed, "Don't be so pessimistic. Perhaps, during the years Prince Qi disappeared, he went back to see your mother. He disappeared for four or five years, didn't he?"
Hearing this, Ning Hongye was somewhat skeptical: "He's only after his throne! Otherwise, why has he never thought of coming to Kunlun all these years, and why did he thoroughly investigate the female cultivators there!"
Xu Tianyi shook his head: "But in the end, King Qi got the Immortal Mask and even seized your mother's body. He wanted to resurrect your mother. I guess he loved your mother."
Ning Hongye frowned deeply: "He stole my mother's body? And what is that Immortal Mask?"
The more Xu Tianyi talked, the more complicated it became; she had absolutely no idea what the inside story was.
Noticing her confusion, Xu Tianyi simply spoke his mind.
"Simply put, the Hidden Clan sent their envoy, Wuchen, to force or guide talented individuals into Juku Continent to compete for the Immortal Mask. The Immortal Mask is a tool for the resurrection of the Candle Dragon and also contains the power of the Candle Dragon."
They made humans wear immortal masks and then used the power within them to slow down the time it took for the Candle Dragon to revive.
Rumor has it that the Immortal Mask can be used to resurrect the dead, so this is my prophecy. I predicted that King Qi would eventually obtain the Immortal Mask, and also your mother's body. As for whether he successfully resurrected your mother, I don't know.
Ning Hongye calmed down considerably: "So, according to you, Gu Feixue and Prince Qi were probably discovered back then, and had no choice but to run away together. Then Prince Qi went back to try to save my mother, but failed. So he returned to the Wuji Empire to inherit the throne and fight for the Immortal Mask to save my mother?"
Xu Tianyi stared in disbelief: "You're quite clever..."
Ning Hongye rolled her eyes at him, then rested her chin on her hand, deep in thought.
A moment later, a thought struck her: "That's it!!"
"what?"
Xu Tianyi was somewhat bewildered.
Ning Hongye smiled smugly: "Since Gu Feixue can run away with Prince Qi and make my mother sad, then I can run away with you too, and let Qinghan experience it as well."
Xu Tianyi shrugged: "Why would I run with you? Nobody's chasing us... Holy crap!!"
"boom!!"
A Kunlun Fight technique slammed into her face, and at the same time, a large eye appeared above her head.
Xu Tianyi was shocked, and then he was instantly knocked unconscious, in less than five seconds.
Ning Hongye revealed a meaningful smile, then hoisted him up and smashed through the window.
"Qinghan, your husband is mine now, haha..."
Ning Hongye's triumphant laughter echoed through the night sky.
Then came an angry shout: "Put him down!!"
Gu Qinghan also broke through the window, but it was clear that she couldn't catch up with Ning Hongye. After chasing her for a long time, she could only watch as Ning Hongye carried Xu Tianyi and disappeared into the alley.
Even after the Lantern Festival, the night view of Yongzhou City was still so enchanting, with a light breeze carrying a drizzle that brushed against her face.
Having cultivated herself in the icy and snowy lands for many years, this was the first time she felt that even a light drizzle could be bone-chillingly cold.
In just a few days, she lost her mother, whom she could rely on, and her fiancé, whom she could trust.
Looking down at the fine rain falling from the sky, she squatted on the eaves of a house, tears mixed with raindrops falling from her face.
"I have nothing left... is that right?"
She murmured to herself.
After an unknown amount of time, her clothes were soaked through, yet she remained sitting blankly on the eaves.
A soft sound followed by a familiar voice.
"boom..."
"Alright, here you go. Look at you, so useless..."
Ning Hongye stood beside her, feeling a pang of sadness seeing her friend upset.
Gu Qinghan looked at the unconscious Xu Tianyi and quickly hugged him: "Tianyi...Tianyi, how are you...?"
Ning Hongye said helplessly, "He's just unconscious, he's not dead yet..."
Gu Qinghan's face, wet with rain, revealed a smile of relief at having regained what she had lost.
She looked up at Ning Hongye, and surprisingly, Ning Hongye didn't hate her; instead, she even said thank you.
Ning Hongye's expression became complicated.
"I stole him from you, and you're thanking me..."
"Thank you for returning him to me. Without him, I don't know what I would do..."
Ning Hongye sighed and sat down next to her.
Is it worth it for a jerk like him?
"Red Night, when you meet the one you love most, you'll understand how I feel..."
Ning Hongye lowered her head and murmured to herself, "The person I love most..."
That year, her beloved pet lamb was made into food by Elder Luo Yinbing of Kunlun and served to her, and she even deceived herself into eating it.
She had already endured this kind of pain.
Looking at Gu Qinghan, who was embracing the man she loved, she couldn't help but laugh at herself.
"Qinghan, I really... envy you..."
"what?"
"nothing.."
Ning Hongye didn't want to recall it, nor did she want to talk about it.
She chose to bear that pain herself.
Gu Qinghan hugged Xu Tianyi with one arm and put her other arm around Xu Tianyi's right arm.
“Hongye, you are my first friend, and I don’t want to lose you. The moment you took him away just now, I really felt like I lost everything... You are also very important to me.”
Looking into her earnest eyes, Ning Hongye suddenly smiled herself.
"I was just trying to tease you, but seeing how upset you are, I had no choice but to bring it back early..."
Gu Qinghan smiled too: "It's so good to have you all. Promise me you won't leave me, okay?"
Ning Hongye's heart skipped a beat. After a moment of silence, she nodded.
"it is good!"
"Yes, I feel so happy. With you all here, today is the happiest day of my life..."
Ning Hongye ruffled her hair: "You're all soaked, go back and wash up..."
She smiled, immediately got up, picked up Xu Tianyi, and walked towards Cangyu Pavilion.
Turning her head, she called out, "Hurry up and keep up, don't just stand there..."
Ning Hongye hesitated for a moment, then laughed: "Okay!!"
