Night 8: Fateful Night 13 2
"Don't you suspect him?" Luo Sheng pointed at the pale-faced Huang Mingxi, "Don't you suspect that this is actually a conspiracy, and that you and I... have been deceived by them?"
What a person! He must have watched too much "The Realm of Conscience"! The world is not that sinister!
I tried to persuade him helplessly, "Huang Mingxi has been very good to me, and I am just an ordinary person, there is no value in using me at all!"
"He can take out the Yu Linglong in your body and eat it himself, so that he can live many more years." Luo Sheng said dimly, "Besides, he is so badly injured now, only Yu Linglong can bring him back to life."
"Who are you talking to?" Ji Youran cast a puzzled look at us. It was obvious that he couldn't see me, but he immediately expressed his dissatisfaction with Luo Sheng's words. "Didn't the master used to be your young master? Don't you understand him yet? Do you think he is willing to be a blood descendant? When he was dying, he found the king of our blood descendants and negotiated with him. He helped the king purge the radicals among the blood descendants and find substitutes for life energy for the blood descendants, so that the blood descendants got rid of the dangerous situation of being enemies with humans. If it weren't for him, the blood descendants would still feed on human life energy, and you hunters would not live so idle. And... the master is tired of the long life, he doesn't care how long he can live..."
Speaking of the latter part, Ji Youran seemed very disappointed.
Liuli, who had been lying on the ground, also struggled to stand up and said, "The emperor feels that he is neither a true blood descendant nor can he turn back into a human. He has long been tired of his long life. If it weren't for Chaye's appearance, even if you stood in front of him and wanted to fight him to the death, he probably wouldn't resist."
"Hmph..." Luo Sheng sneered, "This doesn't prove that he took in Cha Ye without any selfish motives. Who would take in a 'natural enemy' for no reason?"
I was stunned. Yes, who would just keep a natural enemy around? Did he want me to kill him? No way...
Thinking of what Ji Youran and Liuli said, I shuddered all over... Has this guy always wanted to "commit suicide"? But when I think of his smile that is more dazzling than diamonds, his angry expression, and his pretending to be serious expression... I can't tell that he is a person who has "seen through the world"...
“Isn’t it the same for you?” Ji Youran sneered. “You have no family, and even your only teacher is gone, so you are fearless and have no worries. Otherwise, how could you involve innocent humans? In the past, you were clear about gratitude and resentment, and you never implicated others even when you were in pain... This is what your teacher said. In his heart, you have always been a good child..."
The word "teacher" seemed to have magic power, which gradually calmed down Luo Sheng who was stuck in a dead end.
His shoulders gradually relaxed, and his stern face was gradually filled with sadness.
"Wuwuwu... Teacher..." He held his head and cried nervously, like a patient who had escaped from a mental hospital. "Wuwuwu, the teacher is gone! Now the young master is the only relative I have left!"
My complicated feelings disappeared without a trace because of Luo Sheng's changeable mood.
Am I the one who wants to lose my temper? Am I the one who wants to cry? You all know that I am a human who will become a hunter, but you kept me in the dark and made me think that I was a poor guy who was going to become a blood descendant. Although I am happy that I will not become a blood descendant, becoming a hunter is not much better! It is too scary to not be able to control my body!
Speaking of which! Huang Mingxi is really something, what on earth is he thinking? When you say he has "no desire in life", I really don't see it!
Is this Ji Youran's conspiracy? Otherwise, how could Luo Sheng, who was so fierce at the beginning, suddenly become like a brainwashed psychopath, crying loudly? This doesn't fit the setting of a villain!
Oh! My head hurts! My heart is so tired!
Just as I was daydreaming, a strange suction force suddenly came from behind me, and before I could react, I felt myself being pulled back violently. After the violent impact, I sat up dizzy, holding my head.
"Ouch, my head is so dizzy!" I sat up from the ground, holding my buzzing head.
"Wow...Eh? Oh my God! Has your consciousness returned to your body?" Luo Sheng glanced at me with tearful eyes and suddenly jumped up in shock.
I was stunned, and quickly lowered my head to touch my clothes and the hard floor. Huh? I was really back!
Long live!
I was so excited that I jumped up.
"It's over! If you survive, the young master will be dead!" Luo Sheng gestured incoherently, and no one knew what he wanted to express.
But after he mentioned this, I immediately thought of Huang Mingxi who had fainted on the ground.
Oh my God! He was almost dyed into a green pickle by his own blood!
I leaped up to him and fell to the ground with a plop.
"Huang Mingxi?" I called his name guiltily. I had no idea what to do with my hands and feet. I could hardly feel his breathing. I didn't dare to touch him at all.
Luo Sheng immediately followed me and pushed me aside. He complained with tears in his eyes: "It's all your fault. Why did you wake up? If you wake up, the young master won't wake up anymore!"
Wait, I'm still a little dizzy. What do you mean Huang Mingxi can't wake up when I wake up? What kind of tongue twister is this? Why can't I understand?
"Is fate unchangeable?" Ji Youran came over at some point. Although he looked embarrassed, the feeling of being suppressed to the point of being almost unable to move was gone.
Liuli also came over and knelt down beside Huang Mingxi sadly, sobbing and saying, "Wuwuwu, I thought if I had kept this a secret from you two and let you two become good friends, then the tragedy would not have happened! Who knew, wuwuwu..."
Luo Sheng cried in duet with Liuli in a very appropriate manner: "Wuwuwu..."
Is it really that my IQ is too low that I can't immediately understand what they mean?
Huang Mingxi’s current situation really worries me, but why do I have the desire to just ignore him and beat him up first?
"Why are you crying? Can crying solve the problem? Shut up!" The crying sound in my ears like a devil's sound broke my last nerve, and I yelled in unbearable pain.
“Wow… err!” Luo Sheng and Liuli let out a sudden hiccup and stopped crying at the same time, staring at me blankly.
"You!" I pointed at Ji Youran angrily, "Explain to me clearly what is going on!"
Although Ji Youran is my least favorite among the group, he looks the most normal one at the moment.
Ji Youran looked at me for a long time with a complicated expression, and explained: "Yu Linglong has another magical effect. The human who eats it and becomes a hunter will exude a blood-like smell. The master really didn't know that you were a hunter before. When he saw you, he remembered his past self. Moreover, you used to be a human, which reminded him of his past self, so he subconsciously wanted to help you... The master has always been very gentle to humans, I just want to take a gamble..."
Ji Youran paused for a moment, letting me digest what he said, and then he continued to explain with a sad face: "Moreover, the hunter who ate Yu Linglong is the destined natural enemy of our blood royal family. Once the hunter's blood awakens, you will fight with the master to death. And the master is the last royal family of our blood. After you fight, if one of you wakes up, it means the fall of the other. I once thought: Instead of letting you become a hunter and come back to deal with the master, it is better to let you go to the master before you become a hunter... The most important thing is that the master who regards you as a blood descendant will definitely help you... Once a bond is formed between the two of you, you should not hurt the master. Well... On the one hand, I hope you can get close to the master, but on the other hand, I have to be wary of you, which is really a headache... However, I didn't expect that when you went to catch fireflies, you left bruises on the master's wrist, which made the master begin to doubt your identity. Because the master has the most noble royal blood, almost no one can leave scars on him except hunters... I couldn't hide your true identity from the master, so I had to tell him... The master said that you can't resist Yu Linglong's control at all, and letting you stay with the powerful blood will stimulate your hunter instinct, so he arranged another place for you to live and decided not to meet you forever."
Is that so?
The stone that had been hanging in my heart finally fell to the ground.
Huang Mingxi's care for me is genuine. He has always been the Huang Mingxi that I know, gentle, kind, and with the most beautiful and warmest smile in the world.
"Yu Linglong can save him, right?" Scenes from the past flashed through my mind, and my heart suddenly became clear. I thought, I know what I should do.
"No! Your body has become stronger because of Yu Linglong. If you take Yu Linglong out, your muscles, heart, and bones will atrophy due to the loss of strength. You will not be able to withstand the process of becoming an ordinary person. You will be very weak..."
"Will he die?" I interrupted the anxious Ji Youran.
"There is no precedent...so...I don't know..." Ji Youran hesitated for a while and answered honestly.
