C45 (2/2)

Lu Yi said, ”Okay, you said it. I let you stay with me for your own good. That's fine. You're doing it for your own good too. Don't bother with me.”

Jin Jian said, ”Look, I said the wrong thing again. Good little sister, I swear to you, if it's really for my own good that I'm not with you, then I'd rather not be together with you forever.”

”Are you serious?”

Jin Jian said, ”Of course it's true.”

Lu Yi said, ”Idiot, if it's not good for you to be with me, then what's the use of being with me?”

Jin Jian said, ”What do you want?”

Lu Yi said, ”I think we'll always be together. Afterwards, let me compensate you for the bad things that happened when you were together with me.”

Jin Jian said, ”Why is it not good for us to be together?”

Lu Yi said, ”Aiya, can you stop thinking about this?”

Jin Jian said, ”Didn't you bring up this topic?”

Lu Yi said, ”Then can you stop talking now?”

Jin Jian said, ”Sure!”

Lu Yi burst out laughing. After thinking for a while, she said, ”However, it seems strange. Why did Uncle Ying's corpse suddenly become a floating camouflage? Did we really make a mistake back then? ”

Jin Jian said, ”Wrong?” We all had spirit runes on us back then. If we had touched a corpse with a Floating Body, then the Earth Qi spirit rune would have reacted a long time ago. ”

Lu Yi said, ”Yeah, then what's going on?”

Jin Jian said, ”This is obviously the murderer's scheme.”

Lu Yi asked, ”What kind of conspiracy?”

Jin Jian said, ”When I mentioned this to Master, Master also asked me if I was prepared to tell him at the funeral that Senior Ying's corpse was buried here. I replied yes, Master advised me not to do this.”

Lu Yi said, ”Why?”

Jin Jian said, ”Master, since the enemies know of our existence and haven't chased us down, it means that they wanted us to uncover this matter and use it to achieve their goals.”

Lu Yi said, ”They're planning to use this Floater's ambush to parasitize the Patriarchs of the various races.”

Jin Jian said, ”This is only the goal that they want to achieve the most. But when this can't be achieved, you can also ask for a secondary goal, which is to achieve another goal. ”

Lu Yi said, ”Which one is it?”

Jin Jian said, ”That is to link He Lan Wuque with the mayfly tribe and completely establish his identity as the murderer. That would mean He Lan Wuque would no longer have a place to live in the clans of the Central Sea.”

Lu Yi said, ”Then wouldn't doing this harm to He Lan Wuque?”

Jin Jian said, ”This is all a scheme by someone with ulterior motives. Don't take it to heart.”

Lu Yi lowered her head and said, ”Why am I so stupid?”

Jin Jian said, ”That's why you need me!”

Lu Yi smiled and said, ”Only ghosts will need you.”

Jin Jian chuckled.

Lu Yi said, ”What are you laughing at? Your Master doesn't agree to let us stay together and has locked you up. What should we do?”

”Right now, of course, it's to ensure that we can move freely, that's the most important thing. In the future, Zhong Hai will definitely be in a state of chaos, and all the races will be using manpower. We will have plenty of opportunities to meet and let them manage us too tightly.

Lu Yi nodded her head and said, ”Then we'll temporarily endure not seeing each other for a few days and not talking, so that they will all think that we have broken off. When they completely put down their guard, we'll secretly sneak out to meet them.”

Jin Jian said, ”This time, you won't be stupid.”

Lu Yi smiled as she patted Jin Jian's shoulder, then leaned her head on his shoulder.

He had a sudden thought and asked, ”But what about the matter with Hailan? Where is Uncle Ying's corpse?”

Jin Jian said, ”This will require us to slowly search through the chaos that will follow. We can't be impatient.”

Lu Yi nodded, burying her head back in Jin Jian's shoulder.

She felt that she was really anxious for her happiness. However, the sense of crisis in her heart grew stronger. Whenever she felt that she was extremely happy and didn't need anything more, this feeling would rush to her. She leaned on Jin Jian's shoulder, but felt that Jin Jian's shoulder was so unreal, as if it could disappear at any time.

Lu Yi couldn't help but tightly hold on to Jin Jian's shoulder.

Jin Jian felt the strength from Lu Yi's embrace. With a thought, he asked, ”Lu Yi, what's wrong?”

Lu Yi said, ”Hold me a little more tightly. Let me feel you by my side. Let me know that you love me and will never leave me.”

Jin Jian hugged Lu Yi tightly and refused to let go for a long time.
