1204 The purest water(Chapter preview)
Sima You Yue looked at the people who had gone through her and took another look at the devil beast that was unharmed by her attack. It seemed like she understood.
"Could it be that I'm looking at another scene from the great battle?"
She looked at the scene around her. Although it was an intense fight, she couldn't feel a single ripple of spirit energy.
"Without the ripples of spirit energy, it seems totally fake. I can't believe I only found out about this now." She laughed self-deprecatingly.
She finally understood things clearly. The scene earlier on had changed too quickly, not giving her any chance to react. She subconsciously used her spirit energy to block it.
"How did I end up seeing this?" She was rather bewildered.
"Wu wu-"
Little Black nipped at the edge of her skirt to remind her of its existence.
Sima You Yue squatted down and patted it on the head, saying, "Were you the one who let me see this?"
"Wu wu-"
Little Black cried out twice and nodded.
Although it had no more spirit energy, it could still do something like this.
"Then why did you bring me here?"
"Wu wu-
Little black cried out twice. It was a pity that Sima You Yue didn't understand.
"You've been sealed, your intentions won't carry across." Sima You Yue carried it up, feeling a little sorry for it.
"What did you want me to see?" She asked.
"Wu wu-"
Little Black nodded.
However, what did it want her to see?
She looked all around her. There were killings happening everywhere. She didn't know what Little Black wanted her to see.
"Wu wu-
Little Black hopped out from her embrace and ran out in front of her before stopping in front of a mountain.
It turned around to look at Sima You Yue, hinting at her to go over.
Sima You Yue walked over and saw a group of people fighting with a group of devil clansmen.
A man came beside a woman, helping to defend her against a barrage of attacks.
"Your wounds haven't healed yet, why did you run out here?!" The lady shouted towards the man.
"Even if they haven't healed, I can't toss you aside without caring about you." The man said, "Relax, I won't die."
"You don't usually care about me, so why are you pretending to treat me well now." She shouted at him.
The man ignored her and continued to protect her from behind, fighting off the enemies.
"Go back! I don't want you to follow after me!" The lady cried out.
"If you have the energy to talk, you might as well deal properly with those beside you." The man said icily.
The lady looked at the man's back and her tears flowed down nonstop.
"Why…" The lady shook her head and said, fighting back tears, "Why do you have to do this…"
Someone came close to the lady. Then, before she realised, the man turned around and happened to see this dangerous scene. He hurriedly came back to pull her to the side.
"Don't zone out!" The man shouted at the lady.
"Then you tell me, what have you come over here for? I am already used to being alone. I don't need you to run over here to accompany me!"
The man looked at the lady and stayed silent for a long time, saying, "If you insist that you need an answer, fine. I'll tell you. I like you. No matter whether we live or die, I have to be with you."
"Then why were you always so cold to me before."
"I wasn't being cold. I merely never felt like I was a person who could stand by your side. You're so outstanding that you deserve someone even better."
Sima You Yue pursed her lips. Wasn't he just being critical of himself? Why did he package it so nicely?
However, that lady was touched and her tears fell. The corner of her mouth lifted up into a smirk. That charming look was like a single beacon of light.
"Come, we will kill our enemies together. We can't escape today, for every additional one we kill, we will gain."
"Alright! Whether we live or die, we will stay together!"
Their hands were clasped tightly together as if nothing could tear them apart no matter what.
Sima You Yue watched as they killed their enemies together. She watched as they got injured while protecting one another and as they slowly lost their energy and were killed together by an enemy.
Although she dared not speak highly of the fact that the two of them only got together at the end, she didn't know what happened to them before this. That was why she didn't want to comment on their final choice.
In the midst of this kind of battle, there were many like this. However, the ones who could hold on to this point numbered very, very little.
She watched as they fought together. Those resolute gazes and the love in their eyes did move her quite a bit.
It was just a pity that in this battle, there was no victory to be won in the end.
"Whoosh"
A pike shot over from who-knows-where and the two protected each other as it pierced through the both of them.
The lady raised her hand and placed it on his cheek, smiled lightly and opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something. However, her hand finally fell.
In the corner of her eyes, a teardrop fell slowly.
The man also seemed like he did not have any breath of life left in him. However, seeing the way she was, his tears fell continuously.
A single pike, two bodies. Frozen forever here on this battlefield.
She seemed to see that teardrop fly into the sky and land in her hand.
"Boom-"
A burst of spirit energy exploded the entire area . The images around her disappeared along with the explosion.
A teardrop flowed down the side of her cheek and landed in the spirit stone in her hand.
She was rather surprised. Why was she crying?
Was she moved by their feelings of living and dying together?
Maybe, maybe not. She wasn't clear as well.
"Is this the tear from back then?"
She looked at that spirit stone. The liquid inside made her think of the final tears the two shed before they died.
"Wu wu-"
Little Black bit her skirt again. This damn woman kept forgetting about its existence.
Sima You Yue lowered her head and looked at it, saying, "Is this what you wanted me to see?"
Little black nodded.
"Why did you want me to see this?" Sima You Yue didn't understand. Afterall, there was no use for her to see it.
"Wu wu-"
Little Black called out twice. It was a pity that Sima You Yue still didn't understand what it was trying to say.
If it were not because she could feel the relationship they had from the contract, she would have wondered whether or not the contract was actually successful..
"Wu wu-"
Little Black cried out even more anxiously. Why didn't this woman know what it was trying to say!
It used its claws to dig at the ground for Sima You Yue to take a look.
"Water?" Sima You Yue could recognise the word it was writing and was stunned before she finally reacted, saying, "Water, it's the purest water?"
"Wu wu-"
Little Black nodded.
"You're saying that you went to help me find the purest water?" Sima You Yue finally understood what it was trying to say.
"Wu wu-"
Little Black nodded again.
Sima You Yue was rather moved. She didn't think that Little Black would help her find this. Although she didn't know whether or not it was the purest water that Yin Lin was referring to, she was happy that it wanted to help her.
"Good boy." She stretched forth a hand and patted its head. She was beginning to accept this guy from her heart.
No matter what the future held, he was still her companion now, wasn't he?
