Watching Zhou Shi'nian leave, Xu Fan, looking at Xia Xiaodie in her sleep, clenched his fists tightly, unable to find the words to say.
Xu Fan and Xia Xiaodie had just reunited, and for this reunion, both had endured untold hardships and ca close to death nurous tis. Now, finally fulfilling their wish, they rarefied in a day of leisure, yet now, Xu Fan was once again about to embark on a journey.
In her dreams, Xia Xiaodie tightly clutched Xu Fan's sleeve, a smile hanging on her face, radiating peace of mind.
Xu Fan suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart, an overwhelming reluctance; at this mont, an impulse surged through him to take Xia Xiaodie and wander to the ends of the earth.
As if their hearts were connected, Xia Xiaodie suddenly opened her eyes, waking from her dreams.
"I'm sorry, I was a bit sleepy, didn't think I'd fall asleep. Have you been waiting long?"
Seeing the sky around, Xia Xiaodie realized she must have fallen asleep, and the man before her silently stood guard by her side, waiting for her for a long ti.
"Not long."
"Why do you look so unwell? Did sothing happen?"
Seeing Xu Fan's complexion, Xia Xiaodie quickly sensed she might have missed sothing in her dreams.
Xu Fan, however, waved his hand, forcing a smile, "It's nothing, it's getting cold, let's go back."
Since Xu Fan wasn't speaking, Xia Xiaodie didn't ask. The two walked side by side, quietly, like a married couple, heading back the way they ca.
The night in Jinling was resplendent with lights, each lamp shedding light as bright as day.
Xu Fan held Xia Xiaodie's hand, walking slowly, walking wholeheartedly, as if to muster all his strength to accompany Xia Xiaodie on this journey.
With the Hidden World Families erging, Xu Fan was acutely aware that the road ahead would be fraught with difficulties and challenges. Whether he could complete that path safely, and when he looked back at the end of the road, would the people beside him still remain?
Xu Fan didn't have much confidence in his heart; the streetlights cast long shadows of him.
"Xu Fan." Xia Xiaodie suddenly stopped, looking up with her big clear eyes, as pure as a rare crystal.
Xu Fan dared not et Xia Xiaodie's eyes, and asked quietly with his head bowed, "What's wrong?"
"Do you rember what we looked like when we first t?" Xia Xiaodie seed suddenly interested, a city-toppling smile on her lips.
The way we looked when we first t? Of course, Xu Fan rembered.
Surprised by the question, a sense of nostalgia involuntarily crept over Xu Fan's face, "Back then, you were quite spirited, totally disregarding , and that proud little look really ticked off. Back then, I vowed to win you over."
Xia Xiaodie gave Xu Fan a sideways glance but ended up laughing first, "You don't know, you were such a rascal back then, especially when you had that naughty smile. Anyone could tell at a glance that you were definitely a little rogue! Chen Dongdong was such an honest kid once, but after a few days with you, you spoiled him."
Xu Fan laughed heartily, "Chen Dongdong wasn't spoiled by . That kid is a silent type, appearing honest but full of mischievous ideas inside."
Xia Xiaodie rolled her eyes at Xu Fan, "Back then, I swore I'd never marry such a little rogue."
Xu Fan recalled those tis between them; those days when Xu Fan ca to Jinling to study because of a marriage contract. But the campus rules—how could they possibly bind Xu Fan? Xia Xiaodie, accustod to campus rules, the first ti she saw him, wasn't she scared out of her wits?
Xu Fan looked at Xia Xiaodie beside him, a streak of playful grin on his lips, "Now, being led by that little rogue from back then—any regrets?"
Xia Xiaodie shook her head, "eting you has been the luckiest thing in my life. And now, being able to hold your hand, walking together without worries, I'm already content."
Speaking this, a trace of solemnity appeared on Xia Xiaodie's face, "So, no matter what happens, don't hold back because of . I don't want my sake to delay your future."
"Promise , okay?"
Seeing Xia Xiaodie's earnest face, Xu Fan's heart was filled with emotion.
The once carefree young boy and girl had already borne their fruits, hand in hand, how many hardships did they overco amidst their journey? How many twists and turns did they endure?
The Xu Fan of those days was full of ambition, youthful zeal, and willing to risk everything for a goal.
Now, it's rely a brief separation; so why should he be so entangled with romantic issues? Hesitant and indecisive?
At this mont, Xu Fan's eyes gradually regained sharpness, the youthful spirit once again filled his chest.
Now, with the Hidden World Families appearing, and the cultivator landscape shaking, it was a trendous opportunity for all cultivators! And Xu Fan, especially, needed this opportunity to grow stronger!
Ever since the Huang Family took Xia Xiaodie away, Xu Fan had sentenced them in his heart. In the Huang Family's main hall, Xu Fan directly declared in front of the Huang Family Head that the Huang Family must be destroyed.
What to use for their destruction? Naturally, strength!
However, from the mouth of the old undying one, Xu Fan learned that the Huang Family wasn't simple. To annihilate the Huang Family, having the strength of the Zhiwei Realm was necessary!
Therefore, Xu Fan needed to race against ti, to soon beco a Zhiwei Realm expert, to re-enter the Huang Family's main hall and annihilate those high-and-mighty Huang Family people who dismissed him before!
Not only the Huang Family but the Liu Family, Dark Forces, and countless other factions harboring ill intentions toward Xu Fan, all needed to be trampled under his feet!
At this mont, Xu Fan solemnly nodded towards Xia Xiaodie.
Promises, for adults, might be just an excuse, a ans, but for this pair of young lovers, they were things more important than life itself.
The girl lifted her head; her jewel-like eyes sparkled brightly.
Ever since she saw Xu Fan in the Huang Family's main hall, Xia Xiaodie knew that her heart would forever belong to Xu Fan.
However, Xia Xiaodie was still a re mortal, while Xu Fan's talent, seen in the Huang Family's main hall, dimd all the world's cultivators and even Marquis Harden, a Zhiwei Realm expert!
Earlier, even though Xu Fan didn't explain what happened, the reluctance in his eyes was as clear as a mirror to Xia Xiaodie.
Xu Fan could courageously storm the Huang Family's main hall for Xia Xiaodie, fighting bloodily, near death.
Xia Xiaodie could equally loosen her grip on Xu Fan's hand for the sake of Xu Fan's future.
