Facing Luo Jing's inquiry, Jiang Muxue sighed slightly.
She looked at the leaf in her hand and said, "This is indeed Senior Sister's handwriting. The sword energy on it is also Senior Sister's."
Looking at Luo Jing's face, Jiang Muxue said, "And this time, it was Zhizhen who insisted again and again, claiming that he had a way to rescue Senior Sister Qingxuan, and used his status as a Buddhist disciple of Brahma Pure Land as a guarantee, that got the approval of the Immortal Sect's leader."
"Zhizhen personally came to the outside of the forbidden area and used the Blue Bird's message-sending technique to send the letter he wrote into the area and gave it to Senior Sister Qingxuan."
"After receiving the reply from Senior Sister, Zhizhen used the true Buddhist method to trace the source and found that it was indeed written by Senior Sister herself..."
Jiang Muxue didn't say anything else.
But Luo Jing understood what she meant.
These three cold words were indeed Qingxuan's response. There could be no surprises.
So... after Qingxuan knew the truth of everything and knew that Luo Jing did not break the appointment, the only response she gave was... three cold words
Although it is not impossible not to understand, but...
Luo Jing was silent for a moment.
Twenty years.
For him, it was just a few days.
But for Qingxuan, it was twenty years, real twenty years.
Twenty years of inner demons, twenty years of despair, twenty years of resentment, twenty years of powerlessness...
The real age of the two is only in their early twenties!
But because of Luo Jing's "broken appointment"... At least from Qingxuan's perspective, because of Luo Jing's broken appointment, Qingxuan waited for twenty years in despair and powerlessness.
Even if Luo Jing just imagined Qingxuan's feelings twenty years ago, he felt heartbroken.
Not to mention that what accompanied Qingxuan for the past twenty years was not only the anger of being stood up, but also the greatest calamity and inner demon for a righteous cultivator.
The inner demon was so strong that it even forced the usually lazy and low-key young master Xie Xingyao to offend many elders of the sect, and the master and disciple were subsequently trapped in the forbidden area of the immortal sect for twenty years.
The chain reaction also included the young monk Zhizhen's 20 years of hard searching, and his junior sister Jiang Muxue's journey to the Western Regions and her escape into the magic world. Later, due to the pressure from the Central Plains Divine Dynasty, she was separated from her husband and children and was forced to stay away from her husband and newborn daughter...
It can be said that all these irreparable sufferings originated from Luo Jing’s “broken promise”.
Even though Luo Jing did not actually break his promise, the suffering that Qingxuan and the others endured was real.
So Luo Jing could understand Qingxuan's cold response.
Yes, Luo Jing, you did not break your promise, but do I deserve the suffering I have endured for the past twenty years
When he saw the three cold words on the leaves, Luo Jing sighed slightly, but did not blame Qingxuan for being unreasonable.
I'm afraid no one can truly remain calm in such a situation.
Luo Jing said speechlessly: "At least... Qingxuan can respond, which proves that she is fine. I feel relieved knowing this."
Luo Jing put away the leaves in his hand and said, "When I leave the Heavenly Prison, I will go to Lingyun Immortal Sect to find her in person."
"No matter what, I have to see her and seek her forgiveness..."
Luo Jing's words surprised Jiang Muxue a little.
She smiled and said, "My brother-in-law obviously did nothing wrong, why is he seeking forgiveness?"
Luo Jing smiled helplessly and said, "Don't tease me... I really didn't do anything wrong, but sometimes emotional matters cannot be clearly distinguished by right or wrong."
"I did nothing wrong, but Qingxuan did nothing wrong either. She waited for twenty years and suffered a lot."
"Since she has been wronged, can't I be wronged too?"
"As long as Qingxuan can get rid of her depression and get rid of her inner demons, it doesn't matter if I suffer a little. After all, no matter how wronged I am, it can't compare to the suffering she has gone through in the past twenty years..."
Luo Jing sighed softly.
Jiang Muxue smiled and said, "So Senior Brother-in-law still thinks... that you are being wronged? Senior Sister is unreasonable?"
Luo Jing looked at her speechlessly, spreading his hands and said, "If you think so, then I can't help it."
Seeing Luo Jing's helpless look, Jiang Muxue burst out laughing and smiled brightly.
She smiled and said, "Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore. Although my brother-in-law has a peach blossom face, he is unexpectedly infatuated... I really envy him."
"I finally understand why Senior Sister, who is so cold and aloof, would be so affectionate towards you."
"You two, in fact, are the same kind of people at heart... Tsk... Is this what they call being in love? It really makes me jealous."
Jiang Muxue shook her head and said, "In addition to this leaf, I actually brought a new piece of news."
"And this news is related to Senior Sister Qingxuan."
Jiang Muxue looked around and stretched out his hand to deploy some kind of barrier.
This is some kind of magic weapon that Zhizhen had used before. Every time Jiang Muxue talked about something important, a barrier would be deployed to block the outside world from eavesdropping.
The effect was indeed significant. Even the old demon Cang Yu, who had reached the great perfection of the Taixu Realm, was unable to know the details of the negotiations within the barrier.
Looking at Luo Jing in the cell, Jiang Muxue said sternly, "Brother-in-law, don't be too hasty."
"Last night, when Zhizhen returned, a riot broke out in the capital."
"The three great divine slashers of the Night Walk Division once again caught the trace of the demon cultivator who attacked the Queen. They fought with the demon cultivator for half an hour, and finally lost the trace of the demon cultivator."
"When Zhizhen came back from outside the city, he happened to run into this battle and helped to plunder the enemy."
"Zhi Zhen said that during the battle, Tie Xuanshen Zhan's Xuanniao Spear tore open the demonic energy of the leading demon cultivator. Although it was only for a moment, he still saw the demon cultivator's face clearly!"
Jiang Muxue looked at Luo Jing seriously, "And that demon cultivator's face... Senior Brother-in-law, guess what he looks like?"
Originally, Luo Jing had no interest in the demon cultivator who attacked and killed the queen.
But when he saw Jiang Muxue looking so serious, his heart skipped a beat and he inexplicably had a bad feeling.
Could it be... another scapegoat
Luo Jing has been blamed for everything and has developed some PTSD.
He said guiltily: "Could it be that the demon cultivator looks a lot like me?"
Otherwise, why is Jiang Muxue so mysterious
Facing Luo Jing's guilty conscience, Jiang Muxue chuckled.
She said: "I don't look very much like my senior brother-in-law, but I look very much like someone my senior brother-in-law has been thinking about."
Seeing Luo Jing's incredulous face, Jiang Muxue stopped smiling and said seriously, "That's right, it's the one you were thinking of, Senior Brother-in-law... The demon cultivator who attacked and killed the Queen is exactly the same as Senior Sister Qingxuan!"
Jiang Muxue's words were like a fairy tale, shocking Luo Jing so much that his eyes trembled and his face was full of disbelief.
"Looks exactly like Qingxuan?!"
The demon cultivator who attacked and killed the Queen looked exactly like Qingxuan
What is going on
Are there really two people in the world who are exactly the same as me
Or maybe Qingxuan has a twin sister in this world
