Seeing each other again after more than twenty years, even though there are thousands of words to say, the only words that can be said are the words "sorry".
In the past, when the two met here, it was true that he took things for granted and had too much wishful thinking. He imposed his personal perceptions on his friends without taking the other person's feelings into consideration.
Compared to Xia Chenglin who was worried, Cui Luohan was much more direct at this moment. She walked up to him, raised her eyes to look at the familiar face, and said softly:
"You've changed back to the you I like better."
Last time in this Youhuang Qiushui, he told her that her character was not suitable for Confucianism, and that the most suitable place for her was outside Confucianism, so that her nature could be completely preserved.
At that time, she asked herself in her heart, what about himself? she does not know.
She could feel the heaviness in his words, so she didn't know where to start. In the years that followed, the two of them never contacted each other.
Over the years, she has traveled through difficult times again, from the Central Plains to the four martial arts forests of east, west, north and south. She has seen many changes that she had not noticed before, and she has also figured out many things.
"What happened in the past..."
Xia Chenglin was about to explain, but was interrupted by Cui Luohan, who said frankly and directly:
"I don't blame you for what happened in the past. When you reach this point, even your life will no longer belong to you, let alone your feelings."
After traveling around the world with a different mindset and exploring what she wanted to know, she finally understood what the Confucian sect had been doing and what it meant, and she gained a deeper understanding of him.
She had missed the establishment of Tiandu, but she had seen all the changes over the years.
The breakthrough in her state of mind allowed Cui Luohan to take a step further, and she just decided to go to the Southern Territory to visit Jiang Nan Chunxin and ask Kaiwu Tiangong to cast the Jiuxiao Spiritual Sword.
"Thank you."
At the same time as he spoke, Xia Chenglin stretched out his hands, wrapped his arms around Cui Luohan's waist, and pulled him into his arms.
The sudden movement made Cui Luohan's breath suffocate, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, her heartbeat suddenly accelerated in an instant, and red clouds appeared on her fair and pretty face.
She never thought that Xia Chenglin would change his previous behavior, but she didn't push him away either.
At this time, Xia Chenglin's heartbeat was also very fast and chaotic, but he still chose to follow his heart and take the initiative to make a decision, breaking the tacit understanding that existed between the two.
"If I fail to achieve innate cultivation, in fact, my life will not belong to me. With the size of Wanyishang Castle, many things cannot be avoided.
You were right what you said back then, rights and obligations are one. "
Leaning her head on the strong chest, Cui Luohan raised her arms and tightly hugged Xia Chenglin's waist, and whispered:
"But you should at least ask me if I am willing to go back with you, instead of just saying that Confucianism is not suitable for me."
"Sorry, I was careless back then." Xia Chenglin apologized.
Cui Luo raised her head coldly: "You know, I don't want to hear your apology."
"Luo Han, would you like to go back to Defeng Ancient Road with me to meet the master?"
Everything had been clearly arranged by his master, so Xia Chenglin naturally had to take the initiative, clarify the matter directly, and then finish what he could in the shortest time.
He never told his grandfather about this matter from beginning to end, because with his grandfather's character, he would not care about such things at all.
He won't even enlighten him like his master. At most, he will tell him to find someone in the family who likes him, complete the matter of passing on the family lineage, and then focus on the affairs within the family without any distractions.
Instead of wasting time, it is better to review more official documents.
Xia Chenglin knew many things in his heart, and he had understood them since he was a child.
In the eyes of my grandfather, the Confucian inheritance is above all else, so the master's status in his grandfather's heart is naturally much higher than that of his late father. As a descendant, he is valued only because of the Confucian inheritance. The so-called bloodline is just adding to the legacy. Just the head.
At least, my grandfather never cared much about it.
Cui Luohan stared into his eyes: "Why did you suddenly figure it out?"
"I'm too self-righteous and take myself too seriously. Because of my background, I have reasons to work hard, but I don't have to take responsibility from the beginning to the end."
Xia Chenglin explained, with a wry smile on his lips: "Because of this, I was beaten by Master."
"Hahaha——" Cui Luohan laughed directly: "You must have made your own decisions at that time, and you will be punished."
"Does it hurt?" Then she asked with concern.
"Well, all the meridians in my body were shattered at that time." Xia Chenglin nodded lightly.
Jiang Nan Chunxin came to help with the matchmaking. Cui Luohan, who often walked around in the arena, saw far more than Cui Wanyi could see. The Cui family had no room to refuse this matter from the beginning.
Even though the Sword Emperor is broad-minded, the Confucian scholars below will not care. As the saying goes, the King of Hell is easy to mess with, but the kid is difficult to deal with.
Fortunately, she was indeed in love with Xia Chenglin, and it was Lin Chongyang who asked Jiang Nan Chunxin to be the matchmaker. Therefore, after receiving Cui Wan's letter, she did not reject the matter in her heart.
She took the initiative to ask someone out because she wanted to confirm the attitude of the person involved. She never thought that there would be an unexpected surprise.
Seeing his appearance, Cui Luohan snorted: "You deserve it!"
Then, the real energy was sent to check his body, and he felt relieved after making sure that he was fine.
"I will visit Senior Jiangnan later and ask Senior to send Master a flying letter. Tomorrow, Master will come to my door to propose marriage." Xia Chenglin said frankly.
Cui Luohan was a little surprised: "So fast?"
"Master has been preparing since the day I was beaten."
"Did you bring your piano?"
"Um."
…………
As the sun turns westward, the wisps of white clouds in the sky are rimmed with hazy golden edges, making them gorgeous and colorful.
On the top of the peak, the wind blew his clothes, and he saw a figure standing in the wind, wearing a crown of pearls and jade, and carrying a cloud-patterned sword bag. His eyes were blank, overlooking the scenery below the mountain.
Suddenly!
Zheng——!
I only heard the cry of the Qingyue sword coming from the sword bag. At the same time, the clouds quickly accumulated in the sky, covering the sky and the sun. Then the sea of clouds split vertically, and there were thousands of rays of light. The holy energy was rising and falling. Goodbye, the Confucianism was spreading in all directions!
“There are many hardships in the life of the people, and everything is dark when you look up, and the Confucianism warms the world and makes things cold;
Change Tianxuan, change the legal system, and alone support the light of the universe. "
In the clear sound of poetry, an immortal figure descended from the sky with his hands behind his back and landed on the peak.
As soon as they met, I heard Lin Chongyang say: "Long time no see, you are doing well."
"The Sword Emperor's demeanor is still the same as before." Xianzhong Wuming replied.
"Before we get down to business, let me ask you something."
"Oh? I'd like to hear the details."
"As the younger brother of Jiutian Xuanzun, do you have any plans to return to Yunhai Immortal Sect?" Lin Chongyang's tone was somewhat meaningful.
On the way here, when he reviewed the members of the Baqi Evil God, he thought of one thing. In the past, the Baqi Evil God led his eight tribes to attack the Immortal Tree and execute the evil seed source plan, so that the beauty of the calamity was recruited.
Because Jiutian Xuanzun was still alive at that time, Xianzong Wuming didn't seem to know about this matter.
