Chapter 123 - Honors

”I'm sorry.” Looking at Chu Yu and Chen Ye, I was silent for a long time, but in the end, I still apologized to the both of them.

If it wasn't for me, the two of them definitely wouldn't have been involved in this matter, much less feel such a life-and-death despair.

I have truly let down both of them in this matter.

”Why did you suddenly say that to us?” After hearing my sudden apology, Chu Yu and Chen Ye both looked at me in puzzlement. In the end, it was Chen Ye who could not help but ask me.

Why did he suddenly start apologizing? Could he have been shocked silly?

Thinking about this, Chen Ye couldn't help but reach out and touch my forehead.

Looking at Chen Ye's actions, I obviously knew what Chen Ye was thinking in his heart. Black lines started to cover his entire face.

It was just that I felt guilty, so I apologized to the two of them. Why did Chen Ye think that I was stupid now?

”What are you doing?” He slapped Chen Ye's hand away.

It's fine if you think about it, but to think that you would reach out to touch my head. Could it be … Was he afraid that I would get a fever and lose my mind?

”I don't have a fever. I thought you broke through a hurdle and made yourself stupid, but now you've come out and started apologizing to us for no reason.” After getting beaten up by me, Chen Ye didn't get angry. Instead, he retracted his hand and said those words while smiling.

Looking at Chen Ye's expression, I didn't even want to talk anymore.

”Just the two of you?” Looking at Chu Yu, I asked.

Didn't the spirit come out?

I have already passed the third test, so … The spirit should have kept its promise and let the three of us go, but... Why didn't he show up now?

”I don't know.” After hearing my question, Chu Yu turned his head to glance at me, and then looked at the three words that I had spoken.

Don't know?

However … Hearing Chu Yu's words, I was a little confused.

What do you mean you don't know?

Weren't the two of them standing outside, watching? How come he still didn't know where the spirit had gone to?

Thinking about this, I looked at Chen Ye with an especially puzzled expression.

”After you went in and tried to break through the barrier, your spirit immediately disappeared. Since we couldn't find it either, we could only wait here silently.” After seeing my questioning gaze, Chen Ye explained to me.

After hearing Chen Ye's words, I understood that after I passed the trial, Jing Yuan was an existence created by the spirit, so the spirit had always been by my side. Chen Ye and Chu Yu definitely wouldn't continue to see the spirit.

”I've already passed the third test, hiding is no longer meaningful. Are you still not going to come out?” After figuring out the crux of the matter, I raised my head and shouted loudly.
