One month later.
On this day, Liangchen and Qiu Xinmeng's hunting was over, and it was getting dark.
The forest is extremely quiet, and occasionally you can hear the crawling sound of spiders and the chirping of birds.
The two of them looked at the distant sky, where the fish-belly white sky gradually appeared, and after a brief preparation, they flew side by side towards the Demonic Dragon City.
"Liangchen, let me tell you something." Qiu Xinmeng suddenly slowed down and said.
"Well, you say."
Liangchen's heart contracted for a while, but he spoke nonchalantly on the surface.
"It should be time to say goodbye." He thought in his heart.
"Master said...Master said I have reached the critical point of breakthrough and asked me to go back..." Qiu Xinmeng's voice became softer and quieter, and finally became inaudible.
"What?" Liangchen didn't seem to hear clearly.
"I'm going back..." Qiu Xinmeng said with a touch of sadness on her face.
"Really? I'm about to break through! Congratulations!"
When Liangchen heard it, it turned out to be true. I felt sad for a while, but on the outside, I still looked happy and congratulated her.
"Will you come back?" Liangchen asked casually.
"I don't know. Master said that if you can successfully advance to the foundation building stage, it will take some time to consolidate, so I'm not sure." Qiu Xinmeng said slowly, stroking the wings of the staff with one hand.
"If you come back, come find me in the shop. If you don't come back, I..." Liangchen paused, as if he couldn't continue.
He wanted to say, I will go find you, but he stopped when he reached his mouth,
"What are you doing with her?"
Liangchen knew in his heart that she was not an ordinary cultivator, and the sect must be powerful!
This time for advanced foundation building, the master’s sect will definitely have other arrangements. Either he is practicing hard in his master's sect, or he is participating in some master's sect's tasks.
For example, when I advanced to foundation building and became a key disciple of my family, in addition to practicing within the clan, I could only participate in family hunting.
But no matter what the situation is, she will definitely not be allowed to come out to hunt this ice-kissed spider with him again.
Liangchen thought of himself, who was only in the middle of Qi training. The gap was getting bigger and bigger, and the gap between the two was getting deeper and deeper.
Or even if the gap in realm can be made up, what about the gap in background? How to make amends?
"What are you going to do if I don't come back?" Qiu Xinmeng waited for a while, but then she asked.
"It's very slow for me to defeat monsters alone." Liangchen came to his senses and said with a smile.
"Oh..." Qiu Xinmeng seemed to be disappointed with this answer.
The atmosphere was a bit solemn, and both of them fled in silence.
...
"Stop talking about this, let me tell you something about when I was fighting monsters before." Liangchen didn't want the atmosphere to be so sad.
"Yeah..." Qiu Xinmeng nodded uneasily.
"Let me think about it." Liangchen said with a smile, but his heart was already overflowing with sadness.
"Well, once my brother Sheng Qianshan and I went to kill the woolly rhinoceros together. Because we had almost killed the ones on the outside, we walked a little deeper into the swamp. What do you think we met?" Liangchen asked.
"What did you meet?" Qiu Xinmeng asked softly.
"Carrion parrot!" Liangchen said nervously.
"Ah! I know that's the foundation-building monster." Qiu Xinmeng also said nervously.
"And there are still two of them." Liangchen added.
"Two! How could you two escape?" Qiu Xinmeng said nervously.
"Originally, I thought that we two would definitely not be able to escape, but I found out that they didn't even notice us.
Qianshan and I are hiding in the swamp. Run away for fear of disturbing them. But don’t run away for fear of being discovered!
I had no choice but to lurk in the quagmire and remain motionless, not wanting to hear them talking. "
"You're talking nonsense again! Master said that only a monster at the Golden Core stage can speak!" Qiu Xinmeng interrupted.
"Really! If it's other monsters, of course they need the Golden Core level. Parrots are different. Have you ever seen parrots raised by ordinary people that can say a few words?" Liangchen said with a smile.
"What are you talking about?" Qiu Xin dreamed for a while, and it seemed that this was the truth, so she asked dubiously.
"It turned out that there was a male and a female, and they were whispering. The female parrot said slowly: Brother, brother, what kind of parrot do you like?
The male parrot replied: I like to talk fast.
The female parrot said: Oh! Jiang Zi, made! "Liangchen acted like a parrot and performed in a precise and orderly manner.
"Haha. Haha. You lied to me again!" Seeing Liangchen say the last words with a straight face, she burst out laughing.
"Ha ha.."
Liangchen saw the way Qiu Xinmengxiao's flower branches were trembling, and the unhappiness in his heart gradually melted away, and he also started laughing.
"What do you like?" Qiu Xinmeng suddenly stopped laughing and looked into his eyes and asked.
"I like..." Liangchen suddenly asked as she stared at him, with such a beautiful face so close at hand,
"You're like this!" I almost blurted out a few words, but I still swallowed the last few words.
"I like girls who are quieter, preferably a healing mage who can heal my scars when I fight." Liangchen thought for a while and said.
"What do you mean? Do you think I'm unruly? Do you think I'm a parrot that's easy to bully? Fire snake curse." Qiu Xinmeng thought he was metaphorizing herself.
"Help! He's dead!" Liangchen shouted and jumped away.
"Don't run away, I'm scaring you." Qiu Xinmeng chased after him.
...
After a while, the two of them arrived at the city gate.
"Here, here's this for you. I'll look at it after I leave." As she said that, Qiu Xinmeng handed a silver-carved storage bag to Liangchen.
"A storage bag is so exquisitely made. It is definitely not an ordinary one!" Liangchen took the storage bag and thought to himself.
"What's inside? Why do you want to give me something? I didn't even prepare anything for you."
"It's disrespectful to come back without reciprocating! This is for you, the first sword I made." Liangchen handed over his Maple Leaf Sword.
"Then~ Goodbye. Liangchen!" Qiu Xinmeng took the sword, put it in the storage bag, looked at Liangchen and said.
Her cherry-like red lips opened and closed, as if she still had something to say. . .
In the distance, a red sun as red as an egg yolk peeked out over the bluestone wall of Magic Dragon City.
A ray of sunlight hit her eyelashes, and the gold-like light particles danced in her eyes, making her watery eyes become even more crystal clear!
The air you breathe is like feathers, fluttering and spreading around, as dense as a dream.
A feeling he had never felt before surged in his heart!
"This is truly the most beautiful person in the world!"
Liangchen looked at her and suddenly had a strong idea in his heart, wanting to reach out and hold her in his arms!
But as soon as he lifted it, it seemed as if he had been immobilized by a spell, and he could no longer lift his hand!
"Uh..." He seemed to want to blurt out something, but when he opened his mouth, there seemed to be a fish bone stuck in his throat, which made him unable to speak!
Just like this, he looked at her and she looked at him, like a wooden figure in the mottled morning light.
....
I do not know how long it has been...
"Uh... Goodbye, Xinmeng!"
His voice was soft, but he seemed to have used all his strength to say these words.
As he finished speaking these words, the feathers and light particles in the air slowly faded away like mist.
"If we say goodbye today, I don't know when we will meet again!"
Liangchen saw this thought suddenly appear in her heart, and his eyes felt sour and mist suddenly rose. He tried his best to open his eyes wide to prevent the mist from condensing into tears.
"Take care!" Qiu Xinmeng finally said nothing and turned to leave.
"Take care!" Liangchen watched Qiu Xinmeng turn around and leave, her fiery red robe fluttering in the wind.
Like a flame!
It's like a ball of flame that you can't control no matter how proficient you are in Nong Yan Duel!
Watching her slowly leave and disappear into the morning light shining like gold foil, two clear and huge tears finally burst out of her eyes and rolled down!
Liangchen watched the flames gradually disappear and was stunned for a long time before opening the storage bag in his hand.
Inside there were ten spiritual diamonds and a jade slip.
A few lines were written on the brief:
"I'm not here, you're too slow to hunt alone, I'm giving you the spiritual diamond, don't refuse. Remember what you owe me, and pay me back twice as much in the future. I hope you don't slack off, or you'll be waiting for me by the fire snake!"
Liangchen looked at it, grinned, and then turned over the other side. The corner of his mouth that had just been raised seemed to freeze. The other side of the jade slip read:
"In my eyes, you are already the best weapon refiner in the world. Just one word from you can pierce all my defenses. Don't think about it!"
