Chapter 304 Making Further Progress (2/2)

“Even if I avenged her sister, what would change? Will it bring back her sister?”

Yezi suddenly stood up and ran over the river dam. She stood in a place without steps, placed one foot in the emptiness before and threw her arms open.

Xiao Bing was stunned.

Yezi looked firmly at Xiao Bing, saying, “Brother Bing, you are an indomitable man who can support the sky even if it collapses. If you became overcautious because of me, then I will jump off here!”

Xiao Bing hurriedly stood up, looking at her in shock. He asked aloud, “Don’t you hope to have a peaceful life with me?”

Yezi answered loudly, “I do. Of course I do. I wish you can be safe every day, and no longer suffer from those fights and killings. I wish we can enjoy a peaceful two-person world and I no longer have to worry about you. If you really think so in your heart, then I don’t care whether you are going to take revenge or not. But you are my man. How can I not know what you are thinking? You are restraining yourself. You don’t want to take revenge and you want to be with me. But will you be at peace with that?”

“Physical pain is torture, but guilt and pain in the heart is more than torture. Especially for a man like you, it is a kind of agony. Brother Bing, I don’t want you to endure all that because of me. What’s more, I don’t want you to change. I love you, and I wish you to be who you are.”

“Even if there will be danger, even if I will be worried, so what? If anything bad happens to you, I will be with you even if I have to die. We will be a happy couple in the netherworld!”

“I will live if you do, I die if you do. I am not asking you to protect the world, but I hope you can follow your heart and be happy. As for the rest, to live or to die, what’s there to be afraid of?”

Xiao Bing was stunned by her words. Yes, to live or to die, what’s there to be afraid of?

Ever since Xiao Bing had Yezi, he was very careful when he did things. There were so many options to weigh that he dared not do anything even if he wanted to. At this moment, with Yezi’s words and reminders, the chains in his heart seemed to be unlocked. His courage and audacity returned as he received inspiration from Yezi. In the past, Xiao Bing had more awareness after he fell in love with Yezi but formed a shackle in his heart which trapped him. But now, the shackles finally disappeared, and Xiao Bing gained some new insights.

Yezi suddenly noticed that Xiao Bing looked a little different. She took her foot back and looked at Xiao Bing with sparkling eyes. “Brother Bing, you…”

The moment Xiao Bing figured it out, he finally broke through the layer of spiritual barriers and reached the middle level of the Breaking the Void. However, none of the happiness it brought was as great as the one he felt when he figured this out.

Xiao Bing leaped high and landed on the spot dozens of steps higher. Seeing his swift movement, Yezi’s eyes sparkled like small stars.

Xiao Bing pushed his palms in the air, and the waves immediately began to rise above the river, one higher than the other until it reached more than ten meters high. Yezi widened her eyes and her cherry mouth gaped as she thought, “My man is a superhero.”

It’s been a long time since Xiao Bing had been so carefree. After being with Yezi, Xiao Bing was happy, but he lacked some freedom because he began to restrain himself in his heart. At this moment, he chortled. “Don’t let other people’s ideas affect me; I just have to be myself.”

“Yezi, you were right and I was wrong. If people can’t be themselves in the world, their lives will be meaningless. Don’t worry. I will avenge Peiya. With my current strength, no one can stop me. After I make my enemy pay for what he had done to Peiya and Old Lei, I will accompany you every day to live a peaceful life in the future.”

Yezi smiled. This was the Xiao Bing she wanted to see, who was unrestrained and happy.

Xiao Bing landed beside Yezi and held her in his arms. He looked at her with joy and said, “Yezi, you unlocked the shackles in my heart, and my martial arts has made great progress. How should I thank you?”

Yezi’s eyes shone brightly as she asked, “Do you really want to thank me?”

“Of course.” Xiao Bing said seriously, “Do you know what you mean to me? Do you know what the words you just said mean to me? No one can unlock the shackles in my heart. The only person in the world who can persuade me is you.”

Hearing Xiao Bing’s words, Yezi was very happy. It was not sweet talk because she knew that Xiao Bing was sincere. She smiled sweetly, and her eyes beamed like the stars. “If you want to thank me, you can drink beer and eat skewers with me. Then, you have to carry me and take me flying, like what you did just now.”

“Okay!”

Thinking of the way they met each other for the first time, they both laughed.
