Chapter 995 - 981: No Wonder

Su Muyao could hardly believe it, could hardly believe seeing the person in front of her.

His eyes were cold as a painting, carrying a mysterious and magnificent hue, even though they were pink at the moment. As they flowed with expression, there seemed to be a flash of icy blue light passing through.

Like shimmering emerald water, tinged with pink.

His appearance was perfect and delicate as snow lotus ice, transcending the world.

His silhouette was tall and slender, like orchids and jade trees.

Except for the pink hair, everything else was the same.

"Xie... Xie... Guixue..."

Su Muyao almost struggled to say these three words.

At this moment, turbulent waves surged within her heart.

Her heart was overwhelmed with too many complex emotions beyond her control; her eyes slightly reddened, as if suddenly filled with mist.

She couldn’t have imagined that Meng Qing was actually Xie Guixue.

But wasn’t he in the Demon Realm?

What happened to his snow-white hair?

How did it become pink?

Su Muyao didn’t understand what was going on, her head started buzzing, feeling a bit painful.

Yet she couldn’t help but stare at him without blinking.

Meng Qing wanted to cover his face, yet he also didn’t want to deceive her.

In front of her, he truly couldn’t refuse anything she wanted to do. How could he bear to refuse when she wanted to see him?

But she still saw it; he didn’t dare to meet her gaze.

However, hearing her voice wasn’t right, Meng Qing looked down to see her expression, and upon meeting the deep pain and sorrow in her eyes, Meng Qing felt agonizing pain in his chest.

"I... I..."

Meng Qing wanted to explain something but didn’t know how to explain.

Tears welled up in Meng Qing’s eyes, "I am only a part of his body, not him."

At this moment, Meng Qing didn’t dare to say that he was the Emotional Silk abandoned and extracted by Xie Guixue.

If he said it, she wouldn’t know how to hate Xie Guixue.

Although he was the Emotional Silk, he also belonged to Xie Guixue.

If this world lost Xie Guixue, he, as the Emotional Silk, would also disappear between Heaven and Earth.

Seeing the tears in his eyes and the pain and guilt in his expression, Su Muyao wanted to ask something but suddenly couldn’t bring herself to say it.

"Does he have a hardship, right?"

Even at this moment, Su Muyao instinctively believed in Xie Guixue.

And the time spent together made her feel his care for her.

Even if it’s just a part of Xie Guixue, it carries his emotions, doesn’t it?

Meng Qing said helplessly: "His identity and Heartless Path are not under his control."

Once cultivating Heartless Path, many things are beyond Xie Guixue’s control.

Who makes him of Pure Blood Dark lineage, with supreme talent, awaited by many Demon Race Beastmen for salvation.

The other Demon Kings in the three major territories are all madmen.

"The environment of the Demon Realm is also very complicated."

He wanted Su Muyao to forget Xie Guixue but couldn’t bear for her to forget.

After experiencing her kindness, how could he bear it?

He couldn’t help but covet her emotions.

"Do not go to the Demon Realm."

He worried she would encounter the heartless, emotionless Xie Guixue.

After being extracted, he, as the Emotional Silk, tried every means to return to Xie Guixue’s body but found it extremely difficult.

Not only did he fail to return, but he was bruised all over, nearly disappearing between Heaven and Earth.

"I desire to protect you, I wish to shield you, but I..."

Before he could finish speaking, a gust of wind and snow swept up his transparent body, making him seem to turn into foam in an instant, transforming into a pink thread, swept by the wind, about to dissipate between Heaven and Earth.

From somewhere came a black mist, about to devour the pink thread.

At that moment, the bright moon in the sky was suddenly covered by dark clouds, and the sky was instantly filled with rumbling thunder.

The dark clouds brewed, and thunder from Heaven was about to strike down, targeting the pink thread.

At this moment, the system suddenly awoke, screaming: "Host, that is Xie Guixue’s Emotional Silk, quickly, protect it well."

"Nurture the Emotional Silk in the space."

Su Muyao was shaken, never guessing it was an Emotional Silk.

She had guessed many possibilities but hadn’t suspected it was Xie Guixue’s Emotional Silk.

Moreover, how could an Emotional Silk take human form?

Although caught off guard, Su Muyao instinctively activated her superpower to follow the pink thread, instinctively doing so.

But she didn’t know why she couldn’t activate her Wood Element Ability just then.

At this moment, prompted by the system, she tried with all her might to activate the Wood Element Ability again.

This time, the Wood Element Ability burst forth from her dormant body.

Su Muyao quickly transformed the Wood Element Ability into countless vines, directly reaching towards the Emotional Silk. Simultaneously, she herself leaped up, using the Wood Element Ability to shield the Emotional Silk from the Heavenly Tribulation.

Even with a superpower over level thirty, she might not be able to withstand the powerful Heavenly Tribulation.

But Su Muyao didn’t flinch.

No matter what, she couldn’t let Meng Qing disappear between Heaven and Earth.

Perhaps Xie Guixue really had unspeakable hardships.

In any case, she couldn’t give up on him.

At the critical moment, Jing Chu arrived like a blue lightning.

At the instant when the Heavenly Tribulation pierced through Su Muyao’s Wood Element Ability shield, about to strike her, Jing Chu appeared before her, embracing her and shielding her from the Heavenly Tribulation with himself.

"Jing Chu, don’t..."

Su Muyao turned pale, utterly frightened, tears almost spilling out.

Jing Chu looked at Su Muyao, gently smoothing her frown, and said: "Don’t be scared, it’s going to be okay."

"No, don’t let anything happen to you, I don’t want anything to happen to you..."

While saying this, Su Muyao’s voice choked with emotion.

Meanwhile, the Heavenly Tribulation directly struck Jing Chu.

At this moment, Jing Chu could truly feel Su Muyao’s concern for him.

Not because of his connection with Wen Nanxi, but genuinely because of him.

She was worrying about Jing Chu.

Jing Chu weakly said: "It’s alright, I have Divine Power."

Behind him, a green light shield with Divine Power’s strength held off the Heavenly Tribulation.

However, the thunderclouds in the sky continued to roll, seeming as if another Heavenly Tribulation was about to fall.

The system screamed at this moment, "Host, quickly store the Emotional Silk in space, or the Heavenly Tribulation will continue."

"Xie Guixue’s Emotional Silk is too special; some forces don’t allow its existence and wish to destroy it. Once in space, it’ll be fine."

"I have upgraded now, and can block all auras."

Su Muyao hurriedly turned, activating the Wood Element Ability to deal with the Dark Demon Qi, storing the Emotional Silk in space.

The system sighed in space at this moment: "The Emotional Silk’s Emotional Power is too intense, the obsession is too deep. Even wounded like this, it could still take human form and create an Emotion Silk Domain."

"No wonder Jing Chu couldn’t find you all along."

"This is an extremely rare existence; any Beastman’s Emotional Silk lacks self-awareness."

"Back then, Nan Feng’s Emotional Silk lacked self-awareness and was manipulated by Luo Leshuang after scheming to acquire it, used to calculate many things."

Su Muyao was dazed.

"I didn’t expect it was Xie Guixue’s Emotional Silk; no wonder it’s a cat’s form, no wonder it can wield Wind and Snow Ability."

In the previous life, Xie Guixue’s fragment of soul lodged in the cat pet then.

Perhaps subconsciously, he knew that she liked cat beasts.

So transformed into a cat’s appearance.

As she recalled the past half-month with Meng Qing in the bamboo house, how he looked at her and his cautious, humble demeanor.

All made Su Muyao feel uneasy.

Belatedly aching.

The system continued saying, "No idea what power caused such severe injury to the Emotional Silk, needing intense nurturing with my Space Power for a while."

"Fortunately, stored in space timely or wounded like this, it could vanish between Heaven and Earth."
