CHAPTER 806: The Shining Stars, You Are My Lifelong Bond! (For Alliance Leader Qing Meng Youyun's Extra Chapter!!)
Those beautiful eyes, black and white, held within them both the joy of a long-awaited reunion and the hatred for the cold-hearted person before her.
Eyes are the windows to the soul, and Zhuo Mengzhen's complex and intense emotions were fully on display in her gaze.
She was tormented, she struggled, she couldn’t let go.
She was a golden core female cultivator, rich in emotions, someone who could easily be touched.
On one side was the heavy debt of gratitude to her sect, and on the other was the husband she yearned for day and night; it was difficult to satisfy both sides.
The thrilling and dangerous journey of the "Chang'an Plan" had made Zhuo Mengzhen unconsciously fall in love with the warm embrace, deeply infatuated with this feeling of dependability.
But to embrace this, she would have to betray her sect that had been her home for hundreds of years and turn her back on some of her respected mentors.
Moreover, she would have to remain in the Heavenly Harmony Sect and play the role of a pretender every single day.
For over a hundred years, this had been a torment for her, a suffering too profound to share with outsiders.
“Indeed, I’ve made you suffer all these years.”
Looking into those bright eyes, where a thread of hatred lingered, Liu Yu suddenly sighed softly.
While it was hard for him to fully empathize, he could understand some of the pain of torment.
He knew that the other party had not found it easy over the years.
So, during this past century, Liu Yu had never been short of elixirs and had often communicated through the Messaging Jade Token.
“.”
As soon as these words were spoken, Zhuo Mengzhen froze for a moment.
Instantly, her eyes turned slightly red, shimmering with tears, an overwhelming sense of grievance surging to her heart.
However, this woman was inherently strong-willed; how could she easily reveal her vulnerable side?
Before the tears could spill over, Zhuo Mengzhen wrapped her arms around Liu Yu, quickly drawing near, not wanting him to see her current state.
In her ink-black pupils, a female cultivator’s reflection rapidly magnified.
Liu Yu looked on, the cold and exquisite face now bore a few more touches of vulnerability.
Perhaps it was to vent the grievances she had suffered over the years, or perhaps it was simply an instinct driven by love.
This meeting was especially fervent, filled with a sense of hysteria, recklessness, and an eternal bond.
After a long while, the two reluctantly parted for a moment.
“Whoosh~”
Their eyes met, Zhuo Mengzhen fell silent for just a few breaths before eagerly closing the distance again.
This time, she was exceptionally proactive and wild, disregarding her physical injuries.
Soon, strange sounds began to echo in the bedroom.
Time passed slowly, and after fourteen hours, the great sun once again sank behind the western mountains.
The strange sounds gradually subsided.
(...Here omitted thirty thousand words...)
...
Fourteen hours later.
By the bedside in the bedroom.
Dressed neatly, Liu Yu held Zhuo Mengzhen in his arm, and the two remained silent, quietly cherishing the moment.
The entire bedroom was shrouded in silence, with only the faint sounds of their breaths breaking the stillness.
At the hour of the pig, gentle starlight poured through the skylight, illuminating the two bodies, and the atmosphere became unusually warm.
After a long time, Zhuo Mengzhen gently lifted her head, looking at the countless twinkling stars in the sky, her eyes exceptionally bright.
“The stars are brilliant; you are my lifelong bond.”
Lowering her head, she suddenly whispered.
“.”
Caught off guard by these unexpected words, Liu Yu was momentarily at a loss for how to respond.
“Fifty years.”
“In fifty years, I, Liu, will definitely bring you back by my side. Is that okay?”
He instinctively avoided looking at the disappointment in her eyes and thought for a moment before speaking solemnly.
