"Second question, who gave you your mask?"
"Refuse to answer." Ying Baiye said with a smile. "You didn't even answer my question."
"Don't you already know the answer?"
Luo Li said coldly.
"Answer? I don't know." Ying Baiye spread his hands, "I don't know anything."
Gee, this person is really full of bad taste.
Luo Li was deeply aware of this once again. She was sure that when he was cut open, he was a guy who was black to the core.
"Then I can tell you."
"No need, I no longer have any interest in listening."
Ying Baiye said in a teasing tone.
He has really suppressed his curiosity now. Anyway, Luo Li is going to Beicang Lingyuan. If the person Luo Li is waiting for will also come to Beicang Lingyuan, then he will always see this person by then. In this way, there is no great need to ask or not to ask.
Unless, this person is so useless that he can't even enter the gate of Beicang Spiritual Academy.
But this should not be the case. If you can walk out of the spiritual path, you have basically been booked by the five major institutions. Unless you give up voluntarily, otherwise, you will always get in.
Oh, there is another possibility, that is, he failed the assessment of Beicang Realm.
If that was really the case, he would really have to doubt his sister's vision.
In a place like Beicang Realm, you can get through it with your eyes closed. It would be too embarrassing to be eliminated.
She didn't know what Ying Baiye was thinking, but Luo Li only saw that this guy seemed to be sitting aside and thinking about something.
However, no matter how much she thought about it, she could never imagine that this person had already strayed from his mind and was thinking about some things.
"Actually, I'm very curious." Luo Li's cold voice interrupted Ying Baiye's thoughts. "What kind of person is this woman that makes you care so much?"
"What is this?" Ying Baiye twitched the corner of his mouth. "Is it an emotional exchange meeting between brothers and sisters?"
I don’t know why this girl is so curious about his situation. Don’t you want that aloof persona?
Luo Li didn't answer. In fact, she knew the reason.
From the first moment she saw this person, she knew very keenly that this person was very similar to her.
It's not just the similarity in appearance, it's more of something inside.
Later, she learned some information from her grandfather, and also learned some things about Ying Baiye. Luo Tianshen actually didn't know much, but these were enough.
Both of her parents died when she was still young, and she also developed an indifferent temperament, but compared to her, she could feel that her brother's indifference was deeper than hers.
Her coldness was an emotion and a character, but Ying Baiye's indifference was an attitude that was close to "not caring", as if everything was as trivial as the world and completely out of his sight.
However, even with Ying Baiye like this, she could still see his true emotions revealed inadvertently in many things.
For example, he would feel satisfied when tasting the dishes delivered by Luoshui Pavilion, or he would be unconsciously engaged when reading a book, or, when drinking like now, he would always smile and seem to think of Something happy.
And this happens more often when the mask is touched.
Every time Ying Baiye touches the mask, there is always a look of peace of mind and gentleness that cannot be hidden on his face.
This kind of gentleness is different from his habitual pretense, and it can be easily distinguished at a glance.
When she saw this smile, she started to guess who the giver of this mask was and what kind of relationship she had with him.
I don't mean anything else, I just want to know what identity it is that can make such a guy show such an expression.
Because there were some similarities between the two, she was curious.
"Why is it a woman and not a man?"
"..."
Feeling Luo Li's faint gaze, Ying Baiye's mood gradually relaxed.
"You are wrong. She and I... are not the kind of relationship you think."
His tone was very relaxed, and he smiled softly at Luo Li.
"At least for now, she is my adopted sister."
As for how valuable this "sworn sister" is, only the two people involved know.
"She is a very good girl, so good that I don't know how to describe how good she is."
Maybe in the eyes of many people, Lingxi is not that good, but in his opinion, this girl has been a special existence in his heart since he was very young.
In fact, like him, Lingxi is also a "cold-blooded" person. She is so "cold-blooded" that she lives alone in Lingshan Mountain and is not seen by the outside world. She has very little tenderness and is only reserved for a few people like Liao Liao.
She had a very cruel past, and it was Aunt Jing who took her out of that hell, and then she met him.
He was very lucky to be able to meet Lingxi at that time.
A spiritual stream that has locked its heart, but no one has yet tried to open it.
Lingxi also felt the same way. If they hadn't seen Ying Baiye with tears streaming down his face and a knife pointed at his heart, they didn't know what the outcome of the two of them would be now.
Maybe Lingxi would lock her heart tightly and add layers of protection to it until no one could set foot in her territory.
And Ying Baiye might lose his life that night, or he might put down the blade after hesitating for a long time, then give up his idea, live in self-torture forever, and finally fall asleep completely in the cold pool secret realm of Beicang Continent.
Looking back on the past, the two of them could always spontaneously feel the same kind of happiness in their hearts, that kind of happiness is called.
"It's really nice to meet you."
Especially when you meet the most suitable person at the most suitable time, even if you didn't have the same feelings at that time, the feeling of happiness will only increase.
Therefore, in Lingxi's eyes, Ying Baiye is the most special person.
And in Ying Baiye's eyes, she was also the most unique one.
This uniqueness comes from the look at each other that night, from the cold wooden house, and even from the words "I will be your lock".
Thinking about it carefully, every salvation was brought to him by this girl.
Unlike Aunt Jing, Xue'er, the old man, the second uncle, and Sanniang, he is a unique existence in Lingxi, and he is her only key.
Therefore, in exchange of equal value, she seemed so special to him.
At the end of the Cold Pond Secret Realm, he looked back on the past and wanted to let go of all nostalgia, give himself a reason to leave, and also break all the reasons for staying.
He said that Aunt Jing still had Lingxi, his adopted brother and her husband whom he had never met before.
He said that the three elders of Yinglong City also had his sister, the little princess he had doted on for so many years.
He said that he saw his father and his mother again, and they untied themselves and let him go to leave the curse.
So, he said, he had no reason to stay.
At that time, he denied everything and made himself feel completely at ease. But at this time, Lingxi kept him alive.
She told him that he was one of a kind, that he was irreplaceable.
It was also that day that he seemed to understand all the thoughts that Lingxi had hidden for so many years.
It was also that day that she said the most beautiful vows to herself.
With the total death.
Living and dying together in a true sense.
When she said those words, Ying Baiye could clearly feel that if he still chose to be buried in that cold pool, maybe someone would accompany him to another world in the next moment.
That wasn't a lie told to keep him.
This is what this girl wants to say at the last moment what she has hidden in her heart for so many years.
He admitted that at that moment, he was really shaken.
That cold heart seemed to be shocked in an instant, and at the same time, something that had been very hazy before appeared.
They had been hidden in his heart for so many years, and it seemed that at that moment, because of that sentence, they were completely unveiled.
At that moment, he was very happy.
He was very lucky that the emotion that had been filling his chest for so many years was not because of the spiritual healing provided by Yan Tian Jing.
He thought that even if he didn't change at all, this was the only thing that would never change.
She is his real Yan Tian Jing.
Facing the moonlight, Luo Li looked at Ying Baiye with such a soft expression, and unconsciously gave up the idea of continuing to ask.
Isn't the way he looks now the best answer?
Luo Li couldn't help but smile. She felt extremely satisfied that her only brother was such a person.
The fire was still "cracking", but the atmosphere between the two returned to the quiet state before.
One person stares at the flames in a daze, while the other drinks wine by the moonlight.
The atmosphere gradually became harmonious.
It was at this time that the beautiful scene between the two people became closer and closer to the relationship between brother and sister.
To this day, maybe now, the two of them really seem to be a pair of brothers and sisters.
…
The night passed quickly, and when the scorching sun hung in the sky of the Four Mysterious Realms, it meant that this trip to the secret realm was coming to an end.
The time limit is two days and one night, and by the second night, the secret realm will be closed.
At that time, the younger generation of the four major divine tribes must return to Xiaoxitian Lake with the certificates related to their own tribes, use the certificates to open the Four Gods Platform, and complete all the contents of the Four Gods Sacrifice.
In other words, this trip to the secret realm is related to whether the subsequent festival can proceed smoothly.
From this point of view, it is such a shame that the Luoshen Clan's first two terms were robbed of their credentials by other ethnic groups.
It's like a clear mockery.
"Young, you are such a waste that you can't get the credentials of your own clan. You still have to rely on us to help you bring them out so that the Four Gods Festival can be carried out as scheduled. Do you think you are embarrassed?"
That's probably what it means.
"If I'm not mistaken, the participants in the last session were Luo Qingya and the others, right?"
Squatting next to the river, Ying Baiye washed his palms, seemed to have thought of something, and asked Luo Li who was standing next to him.
"yes."
Luo Li replied coldly.
"What a waste."
Ying Baiye's tone did not contain any sarcasm, he was just describing a fact.
However, it is precisely this tone that makes it even more mocking.
However, Luo Li had nothing to say and nothing to say about this matter.
It was indeed Luo Qingya and the others who created this precedent. To be honest, she thought it was quite useless.
But here’s the thing to focus on now.
"When are you going to take action?"
"No rush, no rush." Ying Baiye shook the water drops on his hand with a relaxed smile. "If you want the fish to bite, you have to give them some bait. I don't have time to find them one by one."
Luo Li was silent for a few seconds before she thought clearly about Ying Baiye's meaning.
However, a new question came. Among the four mysterious realms, there were only two members of the Luo Shen clan, so who could be used as bait.
Luo Li didn't ask this question. Although she might not have noticed it yet, she already had some trust in this brother.
In this case, she could just wait and see the final result.
…
"You mean, Luo Shenjian?"
After hearing Xue Jiuqing's words, Xue Liucan looked slightly shocked.
"This is impossible."
"It's true." Xue Qimei said seriously, "I saw it with my own eyes. That sword is definitely the Luo Shen Clan's divine weapon, the Luo Shen Sword."
If there was only Xue Jiuqing, he could still doubt it.
But it was his seventh sister who was talking now. Although she was a bit unconventional on weekdays, when she was serious, she would never lie. She had a sense of proportion in this kind of thing.
"But, with the Luo Shen Sword, the Luo Shen Clan is so relieved to let a sixteen-year-old girl be brought into the secret realm?"
The Sixth Blood Remnant felt that God Luo Tian was treating the other three tribes as fools. Under such circumstances, anyone who did not cherish the opportunity to obtain a divine weapon would regret it for the rest of his life.
"The Sword Comes"
and……
"She has already drawn her sword once, right?"
Xue Jiuqing and Xue Qimei nodded. Seeing them nodding, Xue Liuzhan showed a fanatical smile on his face. With Luo Li's cultivation in the Rongtian realm, it was absolutely impossible to draw the sword a second time.
In other words, their opponents were only a little girl at the Fusion Heaven Realm and a little boy at the Quasi-Hua Tian Realm.
This is a huge pie. If Luo Li is killed and the Luo Shen Sword is taken away at this time, then his father will definitely value him even more.
"Gather the rest of the people, give up the search for the ruins, and come to me to find Luo Li. This matter is the first order of the Blood God and it is urgent."
"yes."
Xue Liuzuan imagined the scene next, and the smile on his face became stronger and stronger. He had already seen his glorious future.
And another person also saw it.
Ying Baiye stood up from the river, wiping the water drops on his hands, his eyes becoming darker and darker.
Haven't you thrown out the bait or something a long time ago?
Just wait for the fish to take the bait.
