The sky gradually darkened, and Chanjuan shyly revealed half of her head, hiding the beauty of the sunset and casting a cool light of water on the earth.

In a quiet forest in the backyard of Lanshan Pavilion, Xiang Yunchi grabbed Ruan Chuyin's wrist and, suppressing the anger rising in his heart, asked word by word, "Is what Qin Guanzhi said true? Have you agreed to marry him?"

His eyes didn't reveal much emotion, but the strength in his hands betrayed his anxious heart.

Ruan Chuyin frowned in pain, but this time, she did not see the concern and consideration in Xiang Yunchi's eyes as before.

Non-vegetation, ruthless Practice makes perfect.

She was very clear about Xiang Yunchi's feelings for her, and she also realized her feelings for him.

But he dared not give any response or promise.

Xiang Yunchi waited for a long time but received no answer. Unable to maintain his composure any longer, he pressed on unwillingly, "Why?"

I treated her so well, shielded her from the elements, helped her achieve her dreams, cherished her, loved her, respected her, even risked my life for her. During the time she left me, I mobilized so many people to search for her day and night, and what was the result? In the end, it was a complete joke.

The pain in his heart suffocated him. Three old wounds on his abdomen suddenly opened again. Bright red blood seeped into his black robe, and the dark red "plum blossom" quietly blossomed, making it difficult to see clearly in the night.

"Yun Chi, Qin Guanzhi saved my life. He is my..."

"What about me? Don't I owe you any favor in saving your life?" Xiang Yunchi interrupted her and expressed his indignation in a lost manner.

"Yun Chi, I'm sorry." Ruan Chuyin looked at his sad eyes, resisted the urge to hug him, and broke free from the strength on his white wrist.

Before she was sure she could go home, she didn't want to have any more ties or concerns in this world.

"Okay!" Xiang Yunchi said lightly and sent her back.

As he turned to leave, he seemed to hear his lover calling his name softly. But he did not look back, and once again jumped into the boundless night.

Ruan Chuyin stared at his back with empty eyes, tears falling uncontrollably.

At this moment, she finally realized how much she liked him.

Jinwu Pagoda, the tallest pagoda in Bafang Town.

The 360-meter-high tower looks like a pillar reaching into the sky.

The tower's roof is like a canopy, with six different ancient mythical beast wind chimes hung from each of its six pointed corners. These chimes, tinkling in the evening breeze, create a tinkling, crisp sound. From afar, the sound seems to emanate a mysterious power, illuminating the mind and making it feel as if the soul has been temporarily purified.

Xiang Yunchi sat with his back against a tall pillar on the top of the tower, quietly gazing at the night view of Bafang Town.

The winding river runs through the streets and alleys like a silk ribbon, dotted with water lanterns, carrying countless beautiful wishes, and flows slowly in all directions.

The wine jug spun in his hand, rising and falling, and then it was empty again.

His eyes were red, he raised his head and took a deep breath, then reached out to touch the pile of wine jugs around him.

It seemed that he had finished all the bottles he brought with him. He burped, slowly closed his eyes and lowered his head.

He suddenly let out a soft chuckle, the smell of alcohol emanating from his lips was hot and spicy, and the veins in his neck suddenly bulged from the anger that was constantly accumulating in his heart.

Suddenly, wild laughter swept over the whole body, and was carried by the wind into the crisp bells, as piercing as the sound of devil.

"Ruan Chuyin, what do you take me, Xiang Yunchi, for?!"

The wine jug in his hand suddenly exploded, the sharp porcelain pieces pierced into his palm, and blood gushed out.

But he seemed to feel that the pain was not enough, so he increased the strength in his hands and watched the fragments sink deep into the skin little by little.

Among the millions of words in the world, love is the most hurtful.

I knew it was such a stumbling block, so how could I not know each other?

In what way is he inferior to Qin Guanzhi?

Whenever she thought about Ruan Chuyin living in the same room with that man, the jealousy in her heart would spread uncontrollably.

Looking at the tiny sparks below him, the gloom in his eyes gradually devoured his sanity. When he looked again, his figure was no longer on the top of the tower.

Upper Room No. 2

When Ruan Chuyin returned, Qin Guanzhi was not in the room.

She sat alone in front of the window, sighing silently.

If we reject Xiang Yunchi today, does that mean there is no hope for the Zhen Dao Sect?

The little hand slowly moved to the chest, pressed the pendant on the neck hard, and the thoughts gradually drifted away.

A tall figure stood motionless under the tree, staring quietly at the woman at the window who made him heartbroken.

The slight drunkenness did not bend his spine, and his misty eyes revealed a determination he had never had before. He slowly walked out of the shade of the trees and exposed himself to the moonlight.

"Yun Chi!" Ruan Chuyin seemed a little bit unbelieving her eyes and stood up suddenly.

The man downstairs opened his arms towards her and waited quietly for his "little white rabbit" to jump into his arms.

A hint of hesitation flashed across Ruan Chuyin's eyes, but when she thought of Zhen Dao Zong, she jumped down without hesitation.

Just when her feet were half a meter from the ground, her body was suddenly and steadily lifted up by a strong arm.

Two figures flew quickly towards the south, and half an incense stick later they landed in a house with a full moon.

The surroundings were quiet, without a single light, but Ruan Chuyin didn't feel the slightest bit of fear.

The cool fragrance on the man gave her an inexplicable sense of security, and also made her feel a kind of dependence that she was not even aware of.

"Yun Chi, where is this?" She looked around the delicate flowers in the garden, turned to look at him and asked.

Xiang Yunchi's eyes held an indescribable coldness. He stared at Ruan Chuyin for a long moment before replying softly, "This is my sixth brother's villa, named Luohong."

Today his voice was as cold as his eyes, which made Ruan Chuyin notice his change.

I suddenly couldn't ask him what I wanted to ask him, and the words that came to my lips became something else.

"You... brought me here because you have something to say to me?" Ruan Chuyin felt that Xiang Yunchi's expression and the aura around him were getting colder and colder, becoming a little unfamiliar to her, making her feel like backing off.

The red candles in the side rooms were lit one by one, temporarily dispelling the darkness.

The small red clay stove burned bright red, and the faint aroma of tea rose up, gradually calming the two rapidly beating hearts.

Xiang Yunchi turned his back to Ruan Chuyin and slipped a porcelain bottle half the length of his little finger from his sleeve while making tea. He poured the strongest love dew into her cup.

"Why did you come to Licheng to find me?" he asked in a hoarse voice, turning around and handing over the cup of hot tea.

Since she has no romantic feelings for me, she must have other important matters that made her come all the way to Licheng to find me.

"I would like to ask you to take me to the Zhendao Sect. I have something to ask your brother." Seeing that he had spoken, Ruan Chuyin followed his words and made her request.

"What do you want to ask?" Xiang Yunchi was slightly stunned and looked at her suspiciously.

"I want to ask you about my return home. How about I wait until I meet your fourth brother and then tell you?"

"Okay. It's cold at night, so drink something hot." Xiang Yunchi didn't dwell on this issue for the time being, staring at the teacup in her hand without blinking.

Just as Ruan Chuyin picked it up and put it to her mouth, a big hand reached out and covered the rim of the cup tightly.

The big hand seemed to be shaking from excessive force.

Xiang Yunchi stared at Ruan Chuyin, who was lost in confusion, with a complicated expression, and said in a low voice, "This cup is too hot. Have mine."

He took the cup of tea with the strong aphrodisiac and gently rotated it in his hand.

"Yun Chi, what's wrong with you?" Ruan Chuyin felt that his behavior today was very abnormal and couldn't help but feel a little worried.

After a while, he looked up at the bright moon in front of him, smiled brilliantly and said, "Nothing, I just want to gamble my life."

Take a gamble, you have me in your heart.

As soon as he finished speaking, he had already drunk the cup of unsolvable tea in his hand.
