Chapter 414: Promised You a Home
“Now that the Fire Sect has experienced such an unforeseen event, even if you don’t make a move, the other people who covet the Fire Sect will not let go of this opportunity. Congratulations, Victor. Your goal has been achieved. Your successful revenge on the Fire Sect has made us pay the price.” Nalan Lengling sneered, however, her tone was slightly sad,
“Do you hate me?”
“Shouldn’t I be?” Nalan Lengling raised her head and looked into Victor’s eyes. She continued, “I grew up in the Fire Sect. Every blade of grass and tree here carries my memories. Now that you’ve burned it to the ground, you’re asking me if I hate you. Victor, don’t you think you’re being ridiculous?”
“Your beloved master wants to use you as a human cauldron to advance to the nascent soul realm. Even so, you still want to count yourself as part of the Fire Sect?
“I don’t think anything here is worthy of missing. Why don’t you leave with me and wander the world?”
As soon as Victor finished his words, Nalan Lengling’s delicate body trembled, as if she was a little disappointed.
“Master has treated me well. Without my master, I would not be the person I am today. Moreover, what right do I have to believe a person who is full of lies like you?”
Hearing this, Victor’s heart ached.
As expected, although Nalan Lengling did not say it out loud, she was still brooding over it.
“Me concealing my identity is way better than someone who has lied to you for so many years. A beast who only wants to steal your spirit reserves!”
“But he’s my master!”
“So what? He’s also a true beast! He wants to use you as a human cauldron, take over my body, and occupy Lian Hua’s spirit reserves. How could such a person be qualified to be called master? If it wasn’t for this, how could I have exposed my identity and killed him?”
“Lian Hua?” Nalan Lengling’s focus was not on Victor’s furiousness for her. Instead, she noticed the name of another woman.
“It’s Wang Cui.”
“Your sister is also a disguise? I guess she is also your woman.”
Victor nodded noncommittally.
Seeing this scene, Nalan Lengling laughed bitterly and waved her hand.
“Forget it, I don’t want to talk about this matter anymore. You can leave now.”
“I can’t leave yet.” Victor shook his head and walked to Nalan Lengling. He continued, “My woman is still here. I can’t leave.”
“Who’s your woman?” Nalan Lengling looked angry and tried to struggle free. However, Victor was a hard-working cultivator. No matter how she struggled, she made no progress.
“Whoever hates me in her heart is my woman.” Victor smiled gently. He ignored Nalan Lengling’s struggle and insisted on holding her in his arms.
“Victor, I’m a Fire Sect disciple and you’re my enemy. I won’t leave with you. Goodbye. I’ll only fight you with my sword. Stop with your wishful thinking.”
“Are you sure? After being treated like a tool and thrown away, after being betrayed by someone you trust and respect, you still think you are a disciple of the Fire Sect?”
“Even if I’m not, I still won’t leave with you!”
Hearing this, Victor’s body trembled and he stopped walking.
“It seems that I’ve been overthinking.” Victor laughed bitterly and put down Nalan Lengling.
“I seem to have been imagining things. Since senior sister doesn’t want to leave, how can I force you?
“I thought the current situation would make senior sister want to leave with me. But, I didn’t expect how impactful my lying was. I should be punished, and I’m willing to be.
“Once you meet a good man, you’ll be doomed. The old saying is not wrong at all.
“But senior sister, what is there for you to stay in the Fire Sect?”
“This has nothing to do with you.”
Hearing this, Victor smiled self-deprecatingly. “That’s true. The familiar face may be gone, but the peach blossoms are still blooming in the spring breeze. Just as I said before, it’s better to forget each other than going through hardships to survive.
“Senior sister, if there is a day when we meet again, I will promise to be your home.
“However… It’s better not to meet again.”
It was hard to meet each other at the top of the mountain, so it would be better for us to not meet at the foot of the mountain.
Victor sighed, bowed, and left.
At this moment, Nalan Lengling’s throat seemed to be choked by something. She looked at Victor’s back as he left. She wanted to say something, but she did not know what to say.
Only when Victor walked out of the door and disappeared from her sight did Nalan Lengling finally fail to hold back her emotions. She covered her face and cried bitterly, like a child who had lost her support.
If it was possible, she also wanted to leave with Victor.
However, she was a disciple of the Fire Sect, after all, so she could not do that,
However, why…
Nalan Lengling held her chest, feeling a piercing pain.
“Why… why do I feel so uncomfortable…”
Victor’s voice seemed to echo in Nalan Lengling’s ears. The familiar face may be gone, but the peach blossoms are still blooming in the spring breeze.
However… it was better not to see each other again.
For a moment, little by little, like a tidal wave surging over, the pain in Nalan Lengling’s heart increased.
This day was probably the darkest day in Nalan Lengling’s life.
She lost her master, whom she had always respected, and also lost her place to live.
More importantly, she used her sharp tongue and clever words to drive him away.
At this moment, Nalan Lengling’s heart felt like it was being cut by a knife.
She should not have stayed. After all, there was nothing in the Fire Sect that was worth staying for.
However, perhaps it was because Victor had lied to her, or because she knew Wang Cui’s true identity, Nalan Lengling still could not convince herself in the end.
She slowly stood up and staggered out of the elder’s pavilion. She returned to the place where she had lived for many years. She looked at everything that was familiar to her and silently shed tears.
However, when Nalan Lengling turned around again, she saw an unruly figure with a mesmerizing smile hanging on the corner of her mouth.
“What a coincidence, senior sister. I didn’t expect to meet you here.”
Hearing this familiar voice, Nalan Lengling’s tears flowed like a fountain.
However, she still stubbornly turned around and tried her best to make her tone sound calmer.
“Why are you back? I think I’ve said it clearly enough.”
“Yes, senior sister was very clear. I have reflected and decided to change my past!”
“I have nothing to do with you. How am I your senior sister?”
“Oh yes, I almost forgot.” Victor bowed his forehead and pretended to be enlightened. Then, he came to Nalan Lengling and held her shoulder.
“Of course you’re not my senior sister, you’re my lover!”
Hearing this, Nalan Lengling blushed.
“Nonsense! Who’s your lover?”
“Who else could it be? Of course, it’s a woman named Nalan Lengling. Eh? Did I remember wrong? Are you Nalan Xinxin? No, I remember that only senior sister has such stunning beauty.”
“Smooth words. I’ve already said that I don’t want to leave with you.”
“Hehe, this is not up to you.”
After saying that, Victor lowered his body and held Nalan Lengling’s cheek. He admired her stunning beauty and kissed her red lips.
At this moment, time stopped.
