C262 (1/2)

He was drunk now, and the depths of his purple eyes were rippling with intoxicating light, reflecting my reflection in them — a small white fox.

He reached out his hand to me and murmured softly, and I could hear very clearly that he was saying the word ”Qing Qiu.”

Does he take me for the Fairy of Qing Qiu? It's said that Fairy Qing Qiu was a nine-tailed white fox when she was alive. If she were to reveal her true appearance, she would probably look like me. I know that he has always loved Fairy Qing Qiu deeply in his heart, and when we experienced the world's tribulation, I even saw the past of both of them. If that illusion was real before, then, the appearance of Lord Yuanyuan when he was young was really cute. It was imprinted clearly in my mind.

However, why do I have the memories of the Fairy of Qing Qiu and Lord Yuanyuan? I want to understand the connection.

This is the reason why I came to the Far Abyss today.

Therefore, I held the warm hand that Yuanyuan extended towards me and asked in a soft voice, ”Yuanyuan, do you still remember what happened to me in my previous life?”

Yuanyuan was lying on the table. He raised his drunken eyes and looked at me with great effort. His purple pupils were covered with a layer of light fog, as if they were glass with dewdrops hanging from them.

”In my previous life …” He repeated it with difficulty, as if he didn't understand what I meant. After a long time, he said, ”How would I know about your past life? ”I can't even remember my past life …”

He seemed to be somewhat sad, as he thought of something, but then shook his head vigorously.

Then he staggered to his feet, threw himself on the table, and shattered a glass cup on the floor.

Across the wide mahogany table, Yuanyuan tightly gripped onto my claws. He caressed it with incomparable gentleness and whispered, ”Qing Qiu, let's not care about our past lives anymore. Why don't you come back to my side? ”As long as you come back and live well, I don't care …”

His voice was sorrowful and hopeless, a heartbreaking sound that could not be ignored. For a moment, I really wanted to turn back three thousand years and let him go back to when Fairy Qing Qiu was still alive. I've seen him smile. His love for Qing Qiu is really touching.

But right now, Yuanyuan was too drunk, and he still treated me like a fairy from Qing Qiu. He held me in his arms like a pet, and I had to let him hold me. Fortunately, I am the fox at this moment, so I won't feel awkward being held like this.

Then he fell asleep on the table and I was free.

After very carefully placing Yuanyuan on the bed and using some method to alarm the servants, I quietly slipped back into the Moon Perching Palace.

After asking around but not getting any results, he instead felt sad for following Yuanyuan. Doing things today was really not good.

When I returned to the palace, it was very late. Luckily, master's room was still very dark. It seemed to have been out all this time and hadn't come back. This made me feel relieved.

I went back to my room and lay on the bed, tossing and turning. I recalled the care that Yuanyuan had given me, as well as the conversation I had between master and Yuanyuan that I heard before our tribulation in the mortal world:

Xuan Yue said that she hoped that she could respond to Yuan Yuan's painstaking efforts as soon as possible.

As for Yuanyuan, he replied, ”My painstaking efforts are the painstaking efforts of Lord Starlord …”

I had overheard these words while hiding nearby. He didn't pay much attention to it then, but now that he thought about it, he felt that it was even more strange.

What was the story between the two of them hiding from me? What do they want in common?

The more I thought about it, the more confused I became. However, the more I wanted to understand what had happened in my previous life.

At this moment, there was a sudden flash of candlelight outside the window as if someone was coming over!
