The top-level junior sister also wants to act weak today
Chapter 172 Fear
Jiang Yingxue, wearing her outer robe, hunched her shoulders slightly. "How can it be easy... In five years, the Demon King will descend upon the world."
Chu Ying sat beside her, casually fiddling with the fruit in the fruit bowl, and said in a light tone as if jokingly: "Oh, there are still five years~"
She looked at Jiang Yingxue and shrugged. "Five years is actually quite a long time. I thought it was only a year. Now that the prophecy has given us the exact time, it gives us some time to prepare. That's good."
Jiang Yingxue glanced at her, a faint smile on her lips: "Ah?"
She said slowly, "Seriously, I should be our number one peak. No, if you include the Ice Dragon, I might be the strongest person in the entire sect, right? It would be bad if I had to watch the three of you die while I hide."
After hearing this, Chu Ying paused while holding a piece of fruit, then quickly stuffed it into her mouth and retorted incoherently, "What's wrong with that?"
She swallowed the fruit pulp and said seriously, "You are different from us. Senior Brother has been in Xianyun Sect since he was a child, and Yizhi and I are from a long line of immortal cultivation families. Even if we didn't join the sect, we would have been sent to exorcise demons. But you are different. You are a noble lady from a country. You could have lived a pampered life."
As she spoke, she reached out and poked Jiang Yingxue's shoulder, her tone becoming more serious. "You came to Xianyun Sect to recuperate, and then you kept worrying about everyone. Although you always look like you don't want to get involved in trouble, every time there is trouble, you are the one who solves it in the end."
"I solved it?" Jiang Yingxue raised her eyebrows and asked half-jokingly, with a hint of teasing in her eyes.
Chu Ying nodded seriously, her tone unquestionable: "It's you! You were the one who found Yizhi and I's swords. You also accompanied our eldest brother to get that crappy gem. And rebuilding the First Peak, doing those tiring and dangerous missions, and even winning first place in the sect competition, were all accomplished because of you."
Jiang Yingxue was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head and smiled: "Hearing you say that, I'm quite impressive."
"Of course!" Chu Ying hugged Jiang Yingxue: "You are amazing."
Chu Ying's eyes turned red as she spoke, then she forced a smile and said to Jiang Yingxue with a tearful tone, "But we have a deal. The three of us have no offspring, so when the time comes, you have to burn some paper money for us three! Otherwise, I'll be thinking about you even when I become a ghost~"
The usually taciturn Cen Yizi burst out laughing at this moment: "It sounds like we'll be bothering Yingxue until we die."
Jiang Yingxue didn't respond immediately. She tilted her head back slightly, gazing at the starry sky, as if using it to conceal the turmoil in her heart.
After a while, she whispered, "Don't say such stupid things."
Chu Ying leaned on Jiang Yingxue's shoulder, her breath carrying the dampness and coolness of the night, but her tone revealed a hint of relief: "Although I have only known you for a year, I feel that this is the happiest year of my life. Yingxue, is there anything we can do for you?"
"Yes, I have."
"What, what?" Chu Ying straightened up immediately, her eyes shining like an anxious child.
Jiang Yingxue looked at the starry sky and said seriously, "Don't go exorcising demons in five years. There will be so many people exorcising demons, and one more or one less won't make much difference. Anyway, I have money, so I will support you when the time comes."
Chu Ying closed her eyes, leaned back on Jiang Yingxue's shoulder, and smiled lightly and helplessly: "Oh, that's impossible."
"why?"
Her voice was soft: "Because we are a family with a mission."
Moreover, she also regards it as her responsibility to exorcise demons and monsters, and she cannot just leave ordinary people alone.
But if I say this directly, I'm afraid it will add to Jiang Yingxue's burden.
Yingxue has given so much for everyone, she just wants her to be safe and sound.
Cen Yizi did not interrupt, but just turned his head slightly and looked at the two of them.
The night sky was vast and boundless, with stars inlaid like diamonds in the deep blue sky. The four of them sat side by side on the deck, as if they were the only ones in the world at this moment, peaceful and comfortable.
"Okay." Jiang Yingxue responded nonchalantly, with a perfunctory tone.
She lowered her eyes, her fingers unconsciously stroking her knees, but her heart had already surged like a raging tide.
She knew better than anyone that these three people were impossible to persuade. Five years from now, they would undoubtedly charge headlong into that fateful, chaotic battle without hesitation. By then, she could simply let the Ice Dragon knock them unconscious and send them packing for home.
One Yuanying and two foundation-building cultivators couldn't do anything in that chaotic battle. It would be better to follow the original story and let the male protagonist solve it. Anyway, the male and female protagonists will be quite strong by then.
Just as she was thinking this, Jiang Yingxue was suddenly stunned and her back subconsciously straightened a little.
wrong!
Her brow furrowed slightly, her eyes growing serious. The Red Lotus Sword, which should have belonged to the male protagonist, had long since become Chu Ying's natal sword under her influence. And the spirit girl, whose dual cultivation had significantly boosted the male protagonist's cultivation, had also been saved because of her intervention.
In this way, the hero has been weakened twice by himself! Five years later, can he really save the world by his own strength as in the original novel?
As soon as this thought came to her mind, Jiang Yingxue felt a chill on her back, and her heart was instantly filled with fear.
Chu Ying sensed Jiang Yingxue's panic and thought she was still worried about what would happen in five years. She quickly comforted her, "It's okay. There are still five years left, right? We can just eat well, drink well, have fun, and live every day to the fullest during these five years! Don't worry too much about us."
She paused, then added with a smile, "Besides, who can say how things will develop by then? Maybe a savior will appear from the sky and we will survive again."
Jiang Yingxue suppressed her uneasiness and swallowed, forcing a smile: "Well, you are right."
"Hey, come to think of it, do you have any unfulfilled wishes?" Chu Ying leaned over to look at Yan Chuan: "Big Brother, do you have any wishes?"
Yan Chuan's expression was calm, and his tone was even more concise: "No."
"Huh? Really?" Chu Ying narrowed her eyes suspiciously: "Don't blame me for not reminding you, some things may be too late if you don't say them now."
She stared straight at Yan Chuan, her eyes revealing an undisguised mischief, clearly hinting at something. She almost had the words "When are you going to confess your feelings to Jiang Yingxue" written on her face.
"I have my own plans." Yan Chuan raised his eyebrows and immediately threw back: "Why don't you tell me your wishes?"
"I told you, eat well and sleep well."
"This isn't a difficult wish to fulfill." Yan Chuan said with a wicked smile, and slowly added, "Didn't you just say that you don't have any offspring to burn paper for you? Five years is enough time for you two to have a child, right?"
