Thousands of miles of barren sand dunes, lifeless dead silence. The lonely sand castle in the sand dunes seems fragile and lonely without any defense.
In fact, all movements on the sand surface for dozens of miles around the castle can be clearly perceived by Ye Peitian in the castle. Any step on this piece of yellow sand is equivalent to entering the attack range of humans and demons. The desert is the world of the Yellow Sand Emperor. Unless there are a large number of people walking together, very few people dare to set foot on this sand dune alone where Ye Peitian exists.
Ye Peitian had just picked up the tenth-order demon seed, and suddenly raised his head in surprise and looked towards the direction outside the gate.
A wave that he was so familiar with was approaching here quickly and straight.
He was a little hesitant, but more of an uncontrollable surprise.
The man ran all the way, getting closer and closer.
Ye Peitian's heartbeat accelerated on his own, and even his breathing became sweet.
That kind of joy, the excitement came up gradually, couldn't hide it, couldn't tuck it, it burst forth, overflowing everywhere. Overwhelm all sanity and deliberation.
The gate of the castle was kicked open with a bang, Chu Qianxun supported the door frame with one hand, bent down and panted desperately, the sunlight shone from behind her, leaving a silhouette of angrily glaring at Ye Peitian.
Ye Peitian stood up in a daze, opened his mouth slightly, blinked, and was speechless.
Chu Qianxun ran all the way, breathless for a while, but at a glance, he saw the demon seed in Ye Peitian's hand, the small crystal in the shape of a planet, bright, clear, with dark flowers flowing inside, so beautiful and eye-catching to Chu Qianxun Almost dare not judge its rank.
But with a thud in her heart, she instantly understood what Ye Peitian wanted to do.
"You..." Chu Qianxun walked to the table and looked at the rare Demon Seed in his hand with doubt, "Are you planning to advance?"
Ye Peitian turned the Demon Seed between his three slender fingers, put it back on the handkerchief on the table, and nodded by default.
"But why are you avoiding me? You have to know that you are secretive like this, in case something happens, I... "
"Qianxun, there are almost no tenth-order saints in this world." Ye Peitian raised his face and looked into Chu Qianxun's eyes, "If I fail, you may not even kill me."
He lowered his eyelashes, "I can't put you in such danger."
Chu Qianxun stretched out a palm and touched his beautiful face, "Ever since we met, you have always been kind to me, making me happy every day. Only once did you make me angry to this day. Can't let go."
"Chihiro, I..."
"In Baima Town, on the day when the monsters invaded, I fought hard all night, finally defeated all the monsters, and returned to Lao Guo's basement full of joy to see you." Chu Qianxun's voice was very low, but his words were very Heavy,
"Can you imagine my mood at that time? In that dark basement, I walked down the stairs with joy, but suddenly I saw a body covered in blood and lifeless. That cold body is the most precious thing in my heart. Man. I thought at the time, when he wakes up, I'll leave immediately, and I won't pay attention to this bastard who doesn't even cherish himself and doesn't discuss anything with me."
She put her hand down and took a step back,
Ye Peitian pulled her back, encircled her, and held her tightly in his arms, almost wishing he could rub her whole body into his body,
"No, Chihiro. Don't say that, I can't live without you." His voice was hoarse, "I… can't live without you."
The powerful arms bound him so tightly, Chu Qianxun pressed against the firm and broad chest, and even through the clothes, he could feel the strength and warmth of the skin there.
"Pei Tian, I understand what you mean. But I probably didn't tell you, I'm the same as you." She closed her eyes and stretched her hand around Ye Peitian's tight waist, "Me too, I can't lose you. ."
I don't know how long it took, Ye Peitian's moist breath blew on her shoulders, and said softly, "Well."
"We still have a long way to go and we will meet a lot of things. I may be scared and timid at times, but I hope to face everything with you. Although I am not as strong as you, I am I don't like that kind of compulsive do-it-yourself kind of thing, and I don't want to be the one who stays deprived of choice."
Chu Qianxun patted his back lightly, "Can you promise me?"
"I'm not strong." Ye Peitian raised his head from Chu Qianxun's shoulder, "There are many people in this world who are afraid of me, afraid of my external abilities. In fact, before I met you, I only But a cowardly and timid man."
He stretched out his hand and stroked Chu Qianxun's sideburns cherishly, loosened them, removed the sand on them, raised his hand and lifted a strand of hair and kissed it on his lips,
"I used to fight with monsters regardless, devouring the demons to improve my level. I made myself the emperor of Huangsha that everyone feared. No one knew that it was just because I was afraid, afraid of all the people in this world and the malice that came to them. I just want to use a strong body to hide my weakness."
"It wasn't until I met you that I gradually gained a heart that belongs to the strong." He looked into Chu Qianxun's eyes, and seemed to have made up his mind, "I'm sorry Qianxun, I promise you that I will never do this again. already."
"Please be my guardian. For you and for myself, I will succeed."
Chu Qianxun's eyes lit up, this is her man, handsome and confident, strong and gentle. So fascinating.
She approached slowly, bit her lower lip lightly, and took her warm gaze, from the sexy Adam's apple down to the firm waist, all the way to the body leaning against the edge of the table, hitting the straight and slender legs took a turn.
As she wished, she noticed that the man tightened her eyes.
Like an agile cheetah, she hunted her own food on the small square table, and held it tightly and refused to let go.
A strand of yellow sand rolled happily across the ground, quietly closing the castle's gate and the wide windows.
Time lost the meaning of measurement at this moment, and it was not until the other party became emotional and fell into it that Chu Qianxun raised his head in the dim light and ended this chaotic kiss.
Ye Peitian let out a dissatisfied sigh and reached out to pull her back.
"This is a punishment for you to leave without telling me. I owe it first." Chu Qianxun lightly lowered his head and pecked at the man's brow stained with spring, and whispered in his red ear, "Wait until you have successfully advanced. , and give you the rest."
Some things, no matter how sensible you think or how frankly you speak, you will only know the intolerance and suffering of them when you experience them in person.
Ye Peitian on the bed hunched his back, curled up, and made a deep guttural sound. The clothes on his back were torn apart, a pair of black protrusions continued to bulge out and retracted on the shoulder blades on his back, a small black sharp corner protruded between his eyebrows, and black scales began to turn densely on his neck.
Chu Qianxun sat on the windowsill, holding his knife silently. Watching your loved one struggle on the brink of life and death.
At this moment, she truly realized the pain that Ye Peitian endured when guarding her own advancement. I hate that I can't replace it with my body, but in the end I can only endure powerlessly.
At dawn, Ye Peitian woke up in the first ray of light that broke through the darkness.
There was a thin blanket on his body, and he got out of it and saw the person guarding the bed.
"Wake up?" The man touched his head, "I'm sweating all over, I've boiled hot water, do you want to take a shower?"
Under the lead of the man, he was placed into the bathtub with pleasant water temperature, and a pair of soft hands reached out and massaged his head, rubbing soap bubbles on his head, and washing his sweaty hair.
"Qianxun," Ye Peitian lay on his back in the bathtub, his head resting on Chu Qianxun's hands, the warm water vapor and the fragrant bath shampoo relaxed his newly reborn body. His face was reddish, and he couldn't help but find some topics, "I accepted Xin Ziming's invitation to go hunting for tenth-order executioners with him and the city lord Jiang Xiaojie of Spring City."
"Who are you talking about?" Chu Qianxun was surprised.
"The head of the unicorn, Xin Ziming." Ye Peitian said, "You may not like this person very much. But compared to those hypocrites who are inconsistent and unprincipled, he at least has his own bottom line. More important Yes, he is still the top magic tool designer today. The most advanced spiritual control saint. I may have a lot of things in the future and need his help."
Chu Qianxun didn't know how to answer. In fact, Chu Qianxun's feelings for Xin Ziming were a bit complicated. He was not only a friend who had a deep relationship with another world, but also an enemy who hurt Ye Peitian in this world.
Because of the repeated verification of the true overlap of many characters in the two worlds, Chu Qianxun could no longer regard that dream as a virtual world. Everyone I saw there truly left traces of their lives in another world.
"I want to try to believe them once, Chihiro, I... I want friends, I want more people to know me. I want to be able to take off my mask one day and live in the sunshine with you."
"Then you can go in peace." Chu Qianxun poured a spoon of water and washed the foam from his hair for him, "If something happens, just wait patiently. I'll be able to find you, and then You bring it back."
Ye Peitian, who successfully entered the tenth order and almost became the strongest saint of mankind, took a shower, changed his clothes, and walked down the stairs with a clean body.
Chu Qianxun smiled and sat on the square table in the hall waiting for him.
Ye Peitian suddenly panicked, his eyes swayed, and he was stunned, but after all, he endured and walked slowly over.
Powerful, arrogant, invincible in the world; shy, soft, and invincible.
If you want to refuse and welcome, your eyes are ecstatic.
Because of the contradiction, it is more charming.
The panicked yellow sand rolled on the ground, trying to cover the bright doors and windows on all sides.
A gust of wind blew past their shy attempts.
On the deserted desert, the orange-red rays of the rising sun shine through the doors and windows that are open on all sides and into the broad and bright castle hall.
"Chihiro, don't...don't be here."
"It's right here, you can shout, no one will come to save you if you shout."
