Under the flickering candlelight, Bei Mingyue stood in front of him, holding a white jade bowl filled with ointment in her hand. There seemed to be a trace of impurities that were inconsistent with purity in her clear eyes. Her eyes were wandering and she looked lightly.
Turning towards the candle that was about to burn out, even the sound became ethereal, as if separated by a thick layer of fog.
"...Then, please help me kill someone."
"who?"
"Prince of Xi Tan Kingdom, Xicheng Jue!"
…
Why did you choose her?
Maybe it's because he and she have the same enemy, so...
He Lianzhuo slowly raised his eyes and looked at Bei Mingyue who was beside him with a probing look. His eyes fell on the Falling Rain Sword at her waist, and his lips slightly lifted.
"Because only by piercing the sword with your own hands into the chest of the person who has hurt you... will it be the biggest blow to him and the best revenge."
Bei Mingyue was startled, lowered her eyes, and subconsciously touched the Luoyu Sword on her waist with her fingers. In her ears, Helian Zhao's voice was clear and calm, but it was like the hardest ice pick, nailing her heart.
, leaving the deepest mark.
"Ah Yue, you are still too weak now, I want to make you stronger."
"Only by becoming stronger, only by becoming stronger regardless of everything, can you not be bullied by others. Only then can you give a fatal blow to those who have hurt you, and laugh while watching the other person's life worse than death."
Only by using any means necessary to become stronger will the weapons that can contain the opponent also become stronger...
Helian Zhuo's eyes were deep.
Just like what he thought, make the woman in front of him the best weapon, the weapon that can give the most fatal blow to Xicheng Jue, then...
"Go back to your Bright Moon Palace. In one month, I want you to assassinate someone."
He couldn't wait any longer.
Turbulent waves were rolling in her blue eyes, as if she wanted to destroy everything in that endless ocean. Bei Mingyue inadvertently raised her head, touched Helian Zhuo's eyes, and was shocked!
That kind of hatred that is so deep that it is almost indelible...
Bei Mingyue hesitated and said, "Who...you want me to assassinate?"
Helian said nothing, glanced at her lightly, raised his hand for the first time, and tied the scattered hair on her cheek to the back of her head. For a long time, until Bei Mingyue thought he would not speak again, a familiar voice appeared
The name rang in her ears, and she almost jumped up in shock.
"Xicheng Jue."
The person he asked her to assassinate turned out to be Xicheng Jue?
If she could really kill him, why would she bother to make that request when he said he wanted to repay her?
"Helian Zhuo, are you confused? You clearly know..."
Bei Mingyue was about to protest, but as soon as her fingers touched Helian Zhuo's sleeves, he had already stood up holding the ancient book and headed deep into the bamboo forest without looking back, leaving her fingers still in the air.
There is a sentence he left behind.
"Ah Yue, if you don't believe in yourself, just don't show up again in a month. I will just pretend... that I have never had you as my apprentice."
…
The sunshine outside the window is bright and warm.
"Princess, what's wrong with you? I've been very worried these past few days. I can't even sleep well. Look, my eyes are bloodshot. What should I do?"
Bei Mingyue looked at herself in the bronze mirror, letting Qingyuan busy with the wooden comb, and yawned lazily, "Who told you that I am worried? It's just spring sleepiness."
