Zhao Jiuge, who was lying on the ground, only felt pain all over his body. He felt a stinging pain when he moved a little. Breathing a little faster could also cause a pulling pain in the chest.
Looking at Lin Banruo's concerned look on his face and feeling his right hand being held softly, Zhao Jiuge felt an inexplicable sense of intention in his heart.
"I thought you would only have a cold face, but now you look quite touching. I can't imagine how amazing you would be when you smile." Lin Banruo just held his hand and said nothing. , Zhao Jiuge said after a moment.
Lin Banruo's lips moved in understanding, but still did not speak. He just stared at Zhao Jiuge's delicate face, somewhat speechless.
Looking at Lin Banruo's still cold temperament, Zhao Jiuge didn't take it seriously at all. He just smiled indifferently. It seemed that the injury in his body was involved when he smiled. Zhao Jiuge snorted and frowned slightly.
"Is it worth it?" Lin Banruo suddenly said softly, looking directly into Zhao Jiuge's eyes with a pair of beautiful eyes. There was sympathy, pity and guilt in his eyes, but there was no emotion between men and women.
Hearing Lin Banruo's sudden words, Zhao Jiuge tried his best to open his eyes, which were a little blurry due to weakness, and held Lin Banruo's soft and cold hand tightly with his backhand.
After trembling for a few times, her dry lips slowly opened, and her eyes stared fiercely at Lin Banruo's exquisite and beautiful face.
"You know, I was an orphan since I was a child. I had no friends and no childhood, and my only relative was killed. Later, like some people, I accidentally got a book of exercises by chance and embarked on this path. Then I saw you that night and I was so shocked. Then your look in your eyes made me feel a little excited. I always thought that one day I would surpass you in my cultivation and let you be myself. But now I see this situation. This situation is impossible to happen..."
Perhaps because the words were too long, Zhao Jiuge couldn't help but cough a few times. After a long time, he calmed down and continued to speak.
"I will think of you at certain times in the following days. When I think of some of the difficulties and hardships you encountered on this road, I feel that they are no longer a problem, and when I think of you, I feel inexplicably happy. I don’t know why, but it is undeniable that you are indeed a motivation for me to keep moving forward on this path.”
Lin Banruo just looked at Zhao Jiuge and listened quietly. Even if Zhao Jiuge's words were intermittent, she did not disturb him.
"And as I continued to practice, I had all kinds of confusions. From that time on, I realized my mind and asked. I thought about killing all the evil demons in the world and taking care of all the injustices in the world. I wanted to kill with the sword in my hand. Try to kill all the people who deserve to be killed, so that your sword can protect the people in your heart. I am very happy that I can kill all the evil demons like Xue Sha Pavilion today, and I am also very satisfied that I can protect the person I have loved for a long time. . Although you are not the whole world in my world now, I will not let you get hurt in front of me. So... for you, it is worth it."
When Zhao Jiuge finished his last sentence, Lin Banruo's tense face finally showed a trace of emotion. His eyes turned slightly, as if he was still recalling what Zhao Jiuge said just now.
"Pfft..."
A sound of laughter in the distance suddenly broke the atmosphere that had finally been condensed just now. This made Lin Banruo frown, and his eyes suddenly became cold again, staring at the source of the laughter. Because Zhao Jiuge was weak, he talked too much in one breath, and felt dizzy. After a while, his eyesight suddenly became blurry, but when he was dying, his last sight stayed on Lin Banruo. The same beautiful profile.
Originally looking at Song Rujing who was laughing softly, Lin Banruo's heart tightened when he felt Zhao Jiuge softening in his arms. He quickly turned to look at Zhao Jiuge, who had his eyes closed in his arms.
"Zhao Jiuge." Lin Banruo shouted involuntarily, his voice revealing urgency and concern, and the pupils in his eyes shrank sharply.
"Hahahaha, I'm laughing so hard. I can't tell that Zhao Jiuge is quite a bitch." Seeing Lin Banruo's expression that he thought Zhao Jiuge was dead, Song Rujing couldn't help laughing.
"You can still laugh!" Lin Banruo said coldly, looking at Song Rujing with a hint of killing intent.
Song Yuansheng on the side looked at Song Rujing and laughed. He thought in his heart that he shouldn't tell the truth to this girl. Not to mention that the secret was revealed now, and the atmosphere that was finally condensed just now was gone. I don't know how Lin Banruo would deal with it. As for myself.
"Oh, now I know how to care about him. Don't you know that caring leads to chaos? Look at him, his breath has not dissipated, he just fainted. How could he die?" Song Rujing had a teasing smile on her face.
Lin Banruo was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Zhao Jiuge in his arms. Indeed, although his aura was weak, there was still a very weak aura that could not be seen without looking carefully.
"What's going on?" Lin Banruo's eyes stared at Song Yuansheng's face with an oppressive look.
"This, this, with your Baihua Valley's Chaohua Xilu Pills and our Xuankong Guan's Jade Qiong Pill fed in, this kid can't die even if he wants to. Although his body is seriously injured, five out of ten meridians in his body are damaged. Six, but no important parts were injured, so as long as he recovers for a period of time and waits for the effect of the medicine to take effect, it won't be a big deal." Song Yuansheng said with some embarrassment, after all, he said that Zhao Jiuge was hopeless before.
"I didn't ask this, I meant why did you lie to me just now." Lin Banruo made it clear that he would not give up and wanted to ask the question to the end.
Song Yuansheng laughed dryly and said nothing. Song Rujing, who was standing beside her, put her hands on her hips and pouted her nose a little bit cutely, saying, "Huh, it's not just for the sake of you two, to bring you together, it's just because that idiot is so passionate about you. help him."
Song Yuansheng was about to break down, and maybe the two of them would fight, but Lin Banruo just lowered his head and looked at Zhao Jiuge in his arms, ignoring the blood stains on Zhao Jiuge, and hugged Zhao Jiuge tightly like that, leaning against his arms. He could lie down more comfortably and let the dirty blood stains on Zhao Jiuge's body get onto the plain dress he was wearing.
After a long time, Lin Banruo said calmly, "You don't need to worry about his affairs from now on. It's impossible for me and him." Then, he paused for a while, ignored the expressions of the Song brothers and sisters and continued, "It doesn't matter. Strength, in short, it is absolutely impossible for me and him." After finishing speaking, Lin Banruo remained silent, and his face returned to its frosty look.
Song Yuansheng and Song Rujing had serious expressions this time. They looked at each other and then at Zhao Jiuge, who had his eyes closed. They couldn't help but sigh softly at the same time.
Zhao Jiuge, who was lying in Lin Banruo's arms and fainted, moved his brows at this time, as if he could feel the decisive attitude in Lin Banruo's words even when he was injured and unconscious.
The Song brothers and sisters, who had nothing to do, saw that although Zhao Jiuge's aura was weak but gradually stabilized, they began to carefully look at the surrounding environment. Seeing the strange blood sacrifice stone platform exuding a strange aura, Song Rujing looked at it. If it is not pleasing to the eye, it is directly connected to the blood pool and destroyed together, so that in the future, if there is one less thing, some innocent lives can be safe.
The four withered corpses of the elders on the four blood sacrificial stone platforms in the corners around the blood pool were also burned by Song Yuansheng's Ziyuan Fire. Of course, everyone's personal belongings were cleaned out by Song Yuansheng, and there was nothing valuable. , some magic weapons are too evil for them to use at all, and the rest are some spiritual stones and the like. Although they are valuable, there is nothing particularly rare.
Not long after, the entire cave was cleaned up by the Song brothers and sisters. All the corpses in the Blood Demon Pavilion were burned by the Ziyuan Fire, and the blood pool was also destroyed, but there was still a faint smell of blood in the entire cave.
"The two of us went up to clean up the scene and see if there are any precious things or useful clues. We will divide the loot when we come down later. Although Jiu Ge's life is not in danger, his injuries are too serious, so you Just take care of him here, he can't move easily." Song Yuansheng shouted loudly to Lin Banruo in the distance. Although there is nothing particularly precious about these disciples, so many people add up to a large amount of income. As for the magic weapons that cannot be used, they will naturally take them back.
"You go ahead, there's no need to divide things. I'll give it all to you two. Zhao Jiuge and I will give you our share as if it's the Jade Pill that's worth it to you." Lin Banruo's voice was still cold, starting from the beginning. Wei was holding Zhao Jiuge without moving at all. He only held Zhao Jiuge's hand and occasionally moved it to observe Zhao Jiuge's physical condition.
Upon hearing Lin Banruo's words, Song Rujing was immediately unconvinced and was quickly pulled by Song Yuansheng to walk out of the cave.
After walking out of the cave, Song Rujing shook off Song Yuansheng and grabbed her left hand, shouting angrily, "Why are you pulling me? That woman is too self-righteous. Can you buy that Jade Qiong Pill? Let's watch in the air." I couldn't make two furnaces in a year, and I actually said that I had to pay for it with something. Besides, I only gave it to Zhao Jiuge because he was my friend. She was so good, but she said that and everything changed."
Song Yuansheng just smiled and said nothing. Song Rujing, who was angry, became even more angry when she saw him like this, "I just know how to laugh. I always look old-fashioned and don't say anything when something happens."
"If you are angry, don't show it to me. Besides, there is a reason why I pulled you away without saying a word." Song Yuansheng pretended to be aggrieved. Seeing this, Song Rujing's face softened a little.
"Don't you see that Lin Banruo's state of mind has been disturbed? She may think it's nothing, but her movements and expressions subconsciously betrayed her, so don't disturb her and let her think on her own. What she said is right, we don’t have to worry too much about the affairs between the two of them, and we will help Zhao Jiuge if we can. In fact, after Zhao Jiuge rests for a few days, we can take Zhao Jiuge back in a flying boat, but I deliberately borrowed it then This is an opportunity for the two of them to stay together for a few months. Brother, I am someone who has been here before, and I know what it means to be in love for a long time." Song Yuansheng said with some pride on his face.
Song Rujing on the side looked at Song Yuansheng with some contempt, snorted in her heart, and then went up to clean the previous battlefield, cleaning up the corpses and taking items. Cultivation requires countless resources, even if they are direct disciples, they will not despise these things. After all, no matter how small an ant is, it is still meat.
Afterwards, after the two of them finished their troubles and checked the surroundings for no other hidden dangers, they slowly returned to the cave.
