Chapter 225 Promise Me in the Next Life
The carriage soon arrived at the foot of Liangshan Mountain.
"Ah Ling, stop making trouble."
Shen Xuanxi looked at the mountain with complicated eyes.
A Ling was very determined at this moment.
"No, you have to go!"
The mountain road is not easy to walk on at night, and the continuous spring rain makes the road a bit slippery.
So, several people walked very slowly.
The same is true for Shen Xuanxi.
A Ling pulled her, and seeing that his young lady was very hesitant, he acted firm.
"Miss, now that you are here, don't refuse!"
A Ling has a simple mind and doesn't think too much.
Shen Xuanxi smiled bitterly, looking somewhat helpless, as he was dragged up the mountain.
But her heart was still shaken.
And when several people walked into the mountain road.
On top of Liangshan Mountain, in the bamboo forest.
Li Yuan waved his hand, clearing away the fallen leaves and brushing away the wet rain.
He sat beside the stone table, still accompanied by a cup of tea, looking quite leisurely.
Li Yuan secretly calculated with his fingers and found that ever since he frankly admitted that he was in a calamity, the sense of the calamity had dissipated.
“So, it’s not just forcing me to choose between humanity and divinity.”
"Is it also testing my heart, to see if I have the courage to admit everything..."
It is a disturbing thing when immortals and gods become tempted by mortals.
But if an immortal god is tempted by mortal desires, he will refuse to admit it, believing that his immortal heart is still pure.
Or directly sink into the disaster.
That is what is truly terrifying.
Li Yuan was too lazy to think about it, and couldn't guess the deeper meaning of this mental calamity. He just felt that since the calamity had dissipated, it was over.
I was relieved in my heart.
The rain falls silently and the bamboo leaves are covered with dew.
The cool breeze at night was a little chilly, but it completely calmed Li Yuan's heart.
However, some tiny movements caught Li Yuan's attention.
He looked away for a moment.
Across the vast forest, they could see Shen Xuanxi and his companions walking on the mountain road.
Li Yuan frowned slightly and calculated with his fingers.
Before the thunderbolt landed, he quickly withdrew his gesture.
"The calamity has dissipated. My spiritual sense of her is no different from that of an ordinary person."
Li Yuan confirmed that the calamity had dissipated, and also confirmed that his own immortal power and spiritual consciousness were normal.
Before that, he openly admitted that he was upset and looked directly into his heart.
But, it’s still the same as I thought before.
Li Yuan believes that immortals and gods have their own responsibilities and should not have such distracting thoughts.
I can't put aside my responsibilities for this love.
He also believed that the so-called divinity and humanity are not in conflict, they are just thoughts in the mind.
If your heart is uneasy, all is at a loss.
And from that moment on.
The so-called mental tribulation can no longer shake his mind.
Afterwards, Li Yuan took advantage of the disaster to eliminate Shen Xuanxi's fatal disaster.
With relief, the calamity disappeared.
“But if she has already overcome her mental tribulation… there should be some mysterious force restraining her, making her choose to stay away from me.”
"Why is she still..."
Li Yuan was a little at a loss, watching Shen Xuanxi slowly walking down the mountain. Although the ripples in his heart did not disturb his original intention, they still had an impact.
The power of the dark world does exist, and it is correcting everything, guiding Shen Xuanxi to give up, but Li Yuan forgot...
In this world, it is not only God's will that determines a person's destiny.
People can also change the fate of others.
Just like the child who fell into the water before, he was destined to drown.
But his companions managed to break through the danger and escaped from danger!
After the Lin family's "destruction", under the correction of the mysterious power, Shen Xuanxi felt alienated from Li Yuan and dared not have any contact with Li Yuan anymore.
But my true feelings have been moved and it is hard to shake.
If there is no external interference, one is destined to be sad and lonely.
Perhaps, the laws of nature will dilute everything over time.
But at this time, A Ling stood up.
It directly changed the trajectory and even kicked the trajectory set by fate aside.
But Li Yuan didn't know all this, he only knew...
I subconsciously wanted to hide.
"Since you are open, why hide?"
Li Yuan smiled derisively and continued to sit alone in the bamboo forest without choosing to hide.
And a moment later.
Outside the bamboo forest, a gentle figure appeared.
Li Yuan sensed the approach of the figure and subconsciously tensed his body.
And outside.
Shen Xuanxi was almost pushed by A Ling into the bamboo forest.
Aling's words are concise:
"Miss, please trust A Ling once. If you don't go meet him, you will regret it more than you did that night!"
Before, Shen Xuanxi had been brought here by them, but he finally stopped deep in the bamboo forest and did not have the courage to give up everything.
At that time, Shen Xuanxi's heart was as broken as jade, and his eyes were red, which made A Ling feel heartbroken.
But today, A Ling would never let his lady look back.
Shen Xuanxi was still wearing a bright red dress. She stood on the path, stepping on stones, clutching the hem of her skirt, feeling a little embarrassed.
But in the end, he mustered up the courage and walked into the path under A Ling's gaze.
Deep in the bamboo forest, Li Yuan watched silently and waited quietly.
Just like the night before, his eyes were deep and complex.
Shen Xuanxi walked lightly along the path in the bamboo forest. The further she walked, the more her heart trembled.
If she had not known Li Yuan's identity, she would have come here with great joy.
But after finding out, I was left with only panic.
As he got closer step by step, Shen Xuanxi felt his whole body tense and he could hardly relax.
But she didn't stop this time.
Until I met those eyes.
At this moment, all the complexity and fear disappeared.
Heaven and earth, mountains and rivers, starry sky and bright moonlight.
They are just side things.
Only the pair of eyes opposite seemed to contain the whole world.
Shen Xuanxi's breath trembled and he took a deep breath.
Slowly walked into the open space.
"Mr. Li..."
She lowered her head, her eyes moving around, and no one knew what she was thinking.
Li Yuan was calm, smiled faintly, and pointed to the table.
There, a cup of warm tea had been poured.
Shen Xuanxi approached with tense steps, her red dress slender and graceful, a hint of nervousness flashing across her gentle and beautiful face.
"So, you are..."
Li Yuan also took a deep breath, feeling the throbbing in his heart.
In the end, everything returned to calm.
"Hillman Li Yuan."
He chuckled, his blue shirt still the same, his long hair fluttering.
Looking at Li Yuan's calm and deep eyes, and the faint smile on his face.
For some reason, Shen Xuanxi felt a little calmer.
She slowly bent down and sat opposite Li Yuan.
Shen Xuanxi stroked the teacup gently, his eyes bright as stars and gentle as a spiritual river.
"I am so lucky..."
Everything is as it was when we first met.
The two looked at each other for a long time and both smiled.
After a little relief, there was a long silence
The drizzle was falling, like silver threads all over the sky.
The tea was warm, and wisps of hot air rose into the air like white mist.
Time passes minute by minute.
It's late at night and the bamboo shadows are swaying.
Everything is so quiet.
In the silence, Shen Xuanxi suddenly spoke, as gentle as usual.
But also straightforward and bold.
"Li Yuan..."
Li Yuan raised his eyes slightly and looked at the person in front of him.
"Promise me an afterlife, okay...?"
Shen Xuanxi smiled gently, and a crystal tear rolled down from the corner of his eye.
It dripped onto the bright red skirt, leaving deep dark stains like blooming plum blossoms.
Li Yuan's heart trembled.
He wanted to say rationally that immortals and gods are eternal, and even if they met in the next life, he still could not respond to this feeling.
Looking at those sad eyes with rippling water waves, Li Yuan felt a little guilty and couldn't bear to hurt her.
"If there is an afterlife."
His fingers trembled and he spoke softly.
Shen Xuanxi smiled, her smile was as beautiful as a flower, but tears were also streaming down her face.
"That's settled then."
"You promised me...don't forget it."
