Chapter 999: Woman's Heart
Yunxi looked at Lu Chen's anxious and deep eyes, feeling very confused.
But he still said softly, "It's been five days, Brother Lu."
When he heard the word "five days", Lu Chen felt as if a bucket of cold water was poured over his head, making his face instantly turn ugly.
Then, he quickly calculated the date in his mind, his fingers tapping the edge of the bed unconsciously, his brows furrowed into a deep "川" shape.
His heartbeat began to speed up, and every beat seemed to remind him of the urgency of time.
"Five days..."
Lu Chen repeated in a low voice, then closed his eyes and tried to keep himself calm.
He began to quickly recall some of the things that happened after he said goodbye to the ticket scalper.
Fortunately, after some thought, Lu Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief, because there were still two days left until the final agreed date.
The problem now is how to avoid Li Anxuan's wanted list and what Yunxi should do next.
The first question can be solved by using the Chaos Disguise Technique.
What makes Lu Chen embarrassed is, what should he do with Yunxi? He can't just leave her alone, right?
After all, she had helped me before. If she hadn't lent me the Haotian Mirror, this crisis would have been difficult to resolve.
But I am about to leave the Lower Thirty-three Heavens, and it is impossible for me to keep her by my side forever.
But if I don't take her with me, given her current condition, if she encounters a bad monk, the outcome can be imagined. Being raped and then killed would be the least of her problems.
With this thought in mind, Lu Chen decided to ask Yunxi what she thought first. Wouldn’t that be better if she had other plans?
So, Lu Chen said softly:
"Miss Yunxi, now that we have gotten out of this predicament, what are your plans for the future? Or, is there any place you want to go?"
Yunxi blinked when she heard this, as if she didn't fully understand what Lu Chen meant. She turned her head and looked at Lu Chen with an innocent and puzzled look on her face, and said:
"I don't have any plans. My injuries haven't healed yet. As long as I can follow Brother Lu, I can go anywhere."
When Lu Chen heard this, a black line suddenly appeared on his forehead. He was so amused by her answer that he said:
"You follow me? That's not a good idea. After all, we men and women shouldn't touch each other, and it's not convenient to be together all the time.
What I mean is, you are still injured and you should think about your family. How about this, where is your home? How about I take you home first?"
After hearing this, Yunxi finally realized something, and her originally pale face became even darker.
Her eyes began to turn red, and her lips trembled slightly, as if she had something to say but didn't dare to say it. Then she stared at Lu Chen with tears in her eyes and said:
"Brother Lu, do you... not want me anymore?"
Yunxi's voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible, with a hint of sob.
She blinked hard, trying to stop the tears from flowing out, but a crystal tear still slipped from the corner of her eye and slowly flowed down her cheek.
This scene moved Lu Chen so much that he didn't know what to do for a moment. He cursed himself in his heart, wanting to be a whore and to maintain a chastity arch at the same time. If he just walked away, wouldn't nothing be wrong?
Just as Lu Chen was secretly feeling annoyed, Yunxi's choked voice came again:
"Brother Lu, do you know? I have no home anymore... If you want to leave, then go ahead. Thank you for saving me..."
As she spoke, Yunxi turned her head behind her, with her back to Lu Chen, looking so helpless and sad.
When Lu Chen saw this, he was stunned. He didn't expect Yunxi to have such a past.
His heart suddenly tightened as he realized how inappropriate his words just now were.
Suddenly, a feeling of guilt came over me, and I didn't know how to comfort the girl.
"Yunxi...I..."
Lu Chen was speechless, not knowing what to say. He took a step forward, wanting to get closer, but was worried that his actions would offend the other person.
However, what Lu Chen didn't know was that Yunxi turned around, and a cunning look flashed in her beautiful eyes, and then she choked up and said:
"Brother Lu, you'd better leave quickly. After all, we have only known each other for a short time, and you have no responsibility or obligation to protect me."
After saying that, Yunxi lowered her head, her voice full of disappointment and helplessness.
Seeing Yunxi so sad, Lu Chen felt like his heart was hit hard.
He knew that he couldn't just give up on her, nor could he let this trust be broken. So, he took a deep breath and prepared to stick to his heart.
"I'm sorry, Yunxi, I was inconsiderate." Lu Chen said gently, his tone much softer than before.
Seeing that Yunxi did not respond to him, he continued:
"I didn't consider your feelings just now. It's my fault. In fact, I am very happy to have a partner like you.
However, I am about to leave here and go to the Central Thirty-three Heavens. If you are still willing to follow me, then we can go together.
When we reach the Middle Thirty-three Heavens, we may be able to find a way to remove the mysterious power in your body."
After hearing this, Yunxi's eyes suddenly lit up and she thought:
"My luck is really good. Not only did I find the person that Master mentioned in such a short time, but I was also able to return to the Central Thirty-three Heavens immediately.
Next, I just need to find a way to follow him. When his cultivation breaks through to Taiyi Jinxian, I can take him to see the master. Then my mission will be accomplished, right? "
Thinking of this, Yunxi couldn't help but secretly rejoice, but she still forced herself to suppress her inner joy to avoid revealing any flaws.
Then, she slowly turned her head, tears still in her eyes. She bit her lower lip lightly, then forced a smile and said:
"Really, Brother Lu? Of course I am willing to follow you."
Seeing Yunxi burst into laughter, Lu Chen said nothing more, thinking to himself, maybe it wouldn't be a big deal to take her along.
In times of crisis, you can also borrow the other party's Haotian Mirror.
Then, Lu Chen found a random excuse and said:
"However, before we go, I need to take care of something. Wait for me for a moment, I'll take care of it quickly."
Although Yunxi was a little confused, her goal had been achieved, so she didn't think too much about it and just nodded slightly to show her agreement.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Chen's mind moved, and the storage ring trembled slightly. Then dozens of formation flags flashing with strange light came out one after another and fell steadily into his hands.
Lu Chen held the formation flag in his hand, his eyes focused and sharp, as if at this moment everything in the world had been forgotten by him, and only the formation that was about to be set up in front of him was the only focus in his mind.
His hands danced like phantoms, and the flags in his hands were like agile spirits, quickly arranging themselves according to a certain pattern...
