The big hand grabbed it very hard. In just a few seconds, Li Yuyan was so painful that his veins popped out and his back was sweating.
"pain……"
She trembled.
Guan Sheng quickly let go of his hand and calmed down.
The night wind blew on his hair, and he remained silent, not knowing what to say, but his complicated eyes could tell how terrifying the dream just now was.
Li Yuyan, who retracted her hand, also realized that she seemed to have disturbed Guan Sheng. She stared at Guan Sheng's side face. For some reason, she actually felt a trace of weakness in this man that did not belong to him.
To be precise: fragile!
Yes!
His vulnerable side.
During this period of time, the image displayed by Guan Sheng was too strong, fearless in nature, and kept strangers away.
But just now...
His mumbling in his sleep, the way his body was trembling, and the scene of him looking at the night sky so lonely at this moment made Li Yuyan feel pity for him inexplicably.
It seemed that the man in front of him now was not a big shot with a mysterious identity, nor was he a strong man with terrifying skills.
He is just a boy in his early twenties who has never been wrapped in love, has never been expected by anyone, and has never been hugged by anyone...
"I..." Li Yuyan grabbed the corner of her clothes, not knowing what to say.
Guan Sheng said coldly: "Next time, don't approach me quietly."
Li Yuyan felt a little guilty: "I just saw you talking in your sleep and breaking into a cold sweat, so I thought you were sick..."
"This has nothing to do with you." Guan Sheng's tone was extremely cold.
Li Yuyan was stunned. He didn't expect this guy to say such heartless words.
It's irrelevant, right?
OK, I'll ignore you next time.
It's like no one wants to care about you.
Treating good intentions as wolf liver and lungs, I am speechless.
Li Yuyan turned around and wanted to leave, but couldn't bear it. She stopped and asked, "What's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
"Do you want me to take you to the hospital?"
Guan Sheng shook his head: "No, you can go to sleep!"
"I'll just stay by myself for a while."
Seeing that Guan Sheng didn't want to say more, Li Yuyan hesitated and returned to the room. She covered herself with a quilt and watched Guan Sheng sitting on the balcony from a distance.
What happened to this guy?
Why does it feel like there are so many secrets hidden within me?
Why didn't he say it?
It was obvious that he was in such pain just now, and it was not just a reaction that only occurred in nightmares. What was he hiding?
Li Yuyan couldn't understand and was extremely confused, but the only thing that was certain was that she seemed to care more and more about this man.
Unknowingly, she fell asleep again.
Guan Sheng, on the other hand, was holding his chest. The place was originally empty, but as memories continued to emerge, it became much heavier.

At the same time, on the other side, on a mysterious green mountain in Jiangnan Province, when the bronze bell was ringing, the Taoist get out of class was over, the lights were dim, but an angry voice came from a gym.
"What did you say?"
"The Black Snake is dead?"
Qi Xiaolong stared at the head on the table in shock, his trembling pupils unable to believe this fact.
His old servant on the mountain is dead...
Someone cut off his head with a knife?
A Taoist boy knelt in front of Qi Xiaolong: "Senior Brother Qi, the person who sent this head from the mountain asked me to convey to you that he will use all his strength to investigate the murderer."
"I will definitely not let the Black Snake die in vain."
"Please also express your condolences!"
Qi Xiaolong flipped over the copper stove on the table and saw that after the wood ash was scattered all over the floor, the air was filled with a strong medicinal fragrance.
"How can I express my condolences? This is a warrior I bought at a huge price to serve, and he died so mysteriously. How can I sleep peacefully?"
"Didn't I just ask him to apply gonggong sand on Li Yuyan? Didn't I just ask him to kill the man named Guan Sheng?"
"Why did you die?"
"No!"
"I want to go down the mountain, go down immediately."
Having said that, Qi Xiaolong was about to pack his bags, but the Taoist boy quickly stopped him and said, "Senior Brother Qi, you must not go down the mountain. Right now, our sect's shadow in Kyoto is in danger. The situation is serious. The elders have ordered that all disciples are not allowed to go down the mountain. "
"If you come down from the mountain at this time, it is tantamount to disobeying the master's order, and your cultivation will be abolished."
"Besides, we don't know the details of the person who killed the Black Snake. Even if you get down from the mountain, what can you do?"
Hearing this, Qi Xiaolong was so angry that his facial features were distorted.
He knew he couldn't be impulsive.
He adjusted his breathing a few times and tried to calm himself down, then asked: "Have the elders ever said when the situation in Kyoto will stabilize?"
"Didn't the high-level representatives of the martial arts world say that they have already negotiated with the high-level officials of the Dragon Kingdom? When will we be allowed to join the martial arts world?"
"Do we have to wait for Mr. Ji to nod and agree?"
"Can't he die?"
The Taoist boy bowed his hands and said, "Senior Brother Qi, be careful in your words and deeds."
"That Mr. Ji's status is unshakable."
Qi Xiaolong clenched his fists.
But he hasn't spoken yet.
But he saw the Taoist boy showing a sinister smile: "Such words cannot be said from the mouths of warriors in our martial arts world."
"Why don't you know if there are people in the court in Kyoto who want Mr. Ji to die?"
"Perhaps those people have already started taking action?"
Seeing the Taoist boy's smile, Qi Xiaolong couldn't help but feel his heart palpitate. On this green mountain, no Taoist priest was a good person. Everyone's disguise was out of apparent courtesy. He immediately realized that he had to disguise himself.
He smiled and bowed to the Taoist boy: "Junior brother is right."
"Maybe there are people who want that old man dead more than us!"
"If he doesn't appreciate the people in my martial arts world, he is destined to be the enemy of the warriors in my martial arts world."
"As the saying goes, if you don't eat a toast, you will be punished with a drink. We have given enough sincerity, right?"
The little Taoist boy stood up slowly, holding his hands behind his back: "Yes, Senior Brother Qi."

Kyoto, the place where the world gathers.
At this moment, several people drove to the intersection and stopped side by side.
There were three cars in total, occupying three lanes. The one-minute red light at the intersection started counting down, and the windows in the back row rolled down, revealing the faces of three middle-aged men.
The middle-aged man sitting in the red flag car in the middle lane put on a bowler hat and said solemnly: "The identity of the guy who helped Mr. Ji clear out the martial arts surveillance people that day is temporarily unknown."
"They should be extremely skilled, professionally trained, have a strong sense of counter-reconnaissance, and be extremely fast."
"That guy can deal with all the surveillance personnel in the same area in just half a minute. With such mobility, we can only find one person on our list."
The middle-aged man in the car in the right-turn lane said coldly: "Could it be that Mr. Ji secretly cultivated a strong man?"
The middle-aged man in the car in the left-turn lane said angrily: "No matter what, the current situation is not good for us. The people in the martial arts world have affected our plans."
"Execute the final plan!"
"Issue an assassination order overseas, summon all the top killers on the killer list, and kill Mr. Ji!"
"I agree!"
"I agree!"
