Shen Mochen's deep eyes were locked tightly on Sitong.
He was originally worried that Si Tong would show an unhappy expression when he saw his current appearance.
But when he saw Si Tong's face as pale as paper, his heart suddenly tightened.
His body tensed and he clenched his fists subconsciously, as if he could see the erect body under the cloak.
After a year, he never expected to see his senior brother again, only to see him looking thin and weak, as if he would wither in the wind at any time.
His complexion was sickly pale, which made his lips look even more rosy and enchanting.
It is the look of this sickly beauty that makes people feel extremely distressed just by looking at her.
He was silent for a long time. Why should a cultivator wear a cloak to keep out the cold? What was wrong with his body?
Didn't he go into seclusion to practice? Could it be that the removal of the mark caused his physical condition?
After all, this mark can only be removed by him personally. If he uses other methods to remove it forcibly, the possibility of backlash on his body is extremely high.
In order to remove the mark, he even ignored his own body.
Thinking of this, he felt that his heart was swollen, even vaguely painful, and his eyes became darker.
Sitong felt panicked when Shen Mochen saw him, and did not want to understand the complicated look in his eyes.
She lowered her eyes and felt a little relieved when she thought that his favorable impression of her was only 40%.
Besides, the demon mark has been removed, and his possessiveness towards her should also be gone, but why does she still feel fearful in her heart?
Shen Mochen's slender and tall figure walked closer to her step by step, which frightened her so much that she took a step back nervously.
There was snow on the ground, so she slipped and fell backwards, but in an instant, he reached out to grab her, and she crashed into his arms.
The atmosphere froze for a moment.
Si Tong opened her mouth to thank him, but was suddenly picked up by him.
She was shocked and couldn't figure out what the villain meant by this move.
Could it be that I ate too much fake dog food?
But don’t harm her if he eats too much, it’s scary!
"Well, thank you so much, junior brother, for putting me down. I didn't fall down."
Shen Mochen's heart clenched together. The body in his arms was very light, much lighter than the last time he held it.
And there are some things that he must ask him clearly.
"I have something to say to my senior brother. It's cold outside and my senior brother is fragile. I'll take him back to his room to talk."
After saying that, Shen Mochen carried Sitong and walked towards the disciple courtyard, without giving her any chance to reject him.
[Host, host! The villain has so much boyfriend power! Isn’t the host heart-beating? 】
The system jumped out at the right time, but I just couldn't figure out why the villain couldn't compare with the little milk dog. The little wolf dog was obviously a more suitable host!
Si Tong glared at the system, he really couldn't do anything, he was the first to eat melons and watch movies.
He's still excited, she's so excited! Her head is so big now that she can't even hide from him.
(I have long said that he is not my type. Everything I do is to complete the task. I gave him the golden elixir not because I like him. Don't think too much.)
[Alas, the host is really calm and terrifying, everyone admires it.]
(Tell me something useful. What’s going on with him holding me now? Didn’t you lie to me and deliberately lower your favorability?)
[How is this possible! They are all very professional! Maybe he is holding you because he sees you looking sick and wants to care about his senior brother.]
(Really, please don’t fool me.)
[I didn’t deceive the host at all. The host just thinks he cares about you. 】
The system fluttered its little wings, wondering who the host was. He was the most sensible book-wearer he had ever seen. Love was nothing in the face of a proper mission.
If he lets the host know that the villain still has a strong possessive desire for her after she removes the mark, she will have to give the villain a heart-wrenching shot and torture him to pieces.
By then, I'm afraid I won't even be able to maintain a 40% favorability rating.
…
In the room, Shen Mochen put Si Tong down.
Thinking of the trembling body under the big cloak in his arms just now, he said in a low voice: "Senior brother, are you still cold? Why can't I feel a trace of spiritual power in senior brother's body?"
Si Tong:......
She coughed slightly, expecting the villain to ask her about the mark, but she didn't expect him to ask about her body as soon as he opened his mouth.
Fortunately, she had already thought of her words, so she said: "Something happened to me while I was practicing in seclusion. As a result, I can't move my spiritual power smoothly now, so I try not to use my spiritual power as much as possible."
"But it's not a big problem. Master said that you should be able to recover after adjusting your breath for a year and a half."
It should be restored, but it does not necessarily mean that it will be restored. This essay must be full marks.
Hearing this, Shen Mochen lowered his thick eyelashes and looked at Si Tong with doubtful eyes.
After a long silence, he opened his lips and asked: "Senior brother's body, isn't it the result of the backlash from removing the mark?"
Si Tong was startled, what is this? Suffering backlash?
With Tongzi here, how could she be backlashed?
He really misunderstood.
"No, my junior brother misunderstood. I was not reviled. It was indeed the result of almost going crazy while practicing."
"You also know that the demon sword is in my body. He always confuses me to become a demon. Seeing me practicing in seclusion, he will naturally not miss this opportunity."
Shen Mochen stared at Si Tong thoughtfully, and after a long time he finally asked: "Really, then why did senior brother remove the mark?"
He reached out and touched the place where the mark disappeared. Ever since the mark disappeared, a certain place in his heart felt empty.
He wanted to hear his answer, and it was this unknown answer that tortured him all night and kept him unable to sleep.
Facing the questioning look from the villain, Si Tong felt inexplicably nervous.
Her reason for removing the mark is actually very simple, she just doesn't want to be marked, but if she says this, can the villain believe it?
If he doesn't believe it, will he go crazy like before...
