Chapter 514 Junior Sister, Don't be sad, okay?
"Let me out! Let me out!" Jiang Li, her eyes red, frantically pounded on the barrier at the cave entrance. "Why are you locking me up? Why are you locking me up?!"
Her fists were raw and bleeding, and she slumped down, bitter tears streaming down her pale face and into her mouth, feeling nauseous and disgusted.
Why are you locking me up...?
"Master, you lied to me! Why did you lie to me? You said you would come to see me, you said you would come back..."
She clearly had a chance to stop all of this. She could have stopped her master. Her second senior brother asked her to take him away, but she just watched helplessly as her master left her world and Zhenfeng, causing her second senior brother to almost never wake up again because of his guilt.
She's stupid! She's dumb!
She is a sinner of Zhenfeng!
How can she go back and face her senior brothers and sisters? She's just a piece of trash.
Trash! Trash! Trash!
Jiang Liqian hugged her throbbing head, curled up in a corner, tears streaming down her face. Her body was chilling, and every breath felt like a slow, agonizing torture.
Sensing her master's intense emotional turmoil, Xin Xin, who had been sleeping, was awakened. She flew out from her master's heart, touched her master's forehead with her little hand with concern, then opened her arms, hugged her master, and pressed her face against her tear-streaked cheek.
"Don't cry, don't cry, little master, don't cry anymore, okay?"
"Xinxin is so sad. When her little master is unhappy, Xinxin feels her heart aches so much."
"Little master, how about I blow on it for you? It'll make you feel better..."
Upon hearing Xin Xin's voice, Jiang Liqian's tears fell even more uncontrollably. She hugged her tightly, as if grasping the last piece of driftwood in a drowning sea.
"Xin Xin, I can't hold onto anything, I can't hold onto anything..."
Xin Xin gently touched her cheek and rubbed against her affectionately: "Little master, you still have me. Xin Xin will always be by your side."
Jiang Liqian asked her, her voice almost breaking, "Will you? Will you really always be by my side? Never leave?"
Xin Xin nodded vigorously: "Xin Xin will."
"really?"
"real."
"Don't lie to me?"
"Xin Xin never deceives her master."
Faced with such a firm choice, Jiang Liqian's suddenly empty heart seemed to finally have a glimmer of warmth. She held her in her hands, placed her on her heart, and tried her best to draw a little light to keep going.
She had cried so much that her eyes were extremely dry. She took a deep breath and raised her hand to wipe away all the moisture from her eyes.
She shouldn't remain so fragile.
There's no use crying here.
She should try to do something, at least, at least...
"Junior Sister, Junior Sister, are you in here?"
The sound is transmitted into the secret.
Hearing the familiar voice, Jiang Liqian looked up in surprise and saw her second senior brother, Fu Wennian, outside the barrier with a sick face, trying to come in, but being ruthlessly repelled by the barrier.
Aside from the secret transmission of sound, no sound could be heard from Sanyan Cliff. All of Jiang Liqian's resentment and sorrow were nothing but self-torture, and no one could hear her except herself.
In such a place, there is no sound of wind, rain, or air flowing through water... It is a silent place, which is actually quite terrifying. If you stay there for too long, you will be driven crazy.
Therefore, although both are forbidden areas, the fewest people pass by Sanyan Cliff intentionally or unintentionally, and basically no one would be so foolish as to come here.
Jiang Liqian thought that her second senior brother must hate her to death. It was her stupidity that caused them all to lose their master. She never expected that her second senior brother would drag his weak body to Sanyan Cliff to find her.
The barrier at the cave entrance was one-way; she could clearly see her second senior brother's every move outside, but he could not see her.
She wanted to respond to her second senior brother immediately, but before she could even utter the incantation, she was so afraid that she wanted to shrink back and stay far away from him, hoping not to see his face or the look of disappointment and hatred on his face.
She didn't dare.
There was never a moment when she had to admit that she was so timid and cowardly.
"Junior Sister, are you in there?"
She kept her mouth tightly shut, her fingernails digging deep into the rock wall behind her.
With a deep sigh, Fu Wennian remained silent outside the barrier.
Upon hearing this complex and indescribable sigh, Jiang Liqian abruptly looked away and bit her lower lip tightly.
Second Brother probably... never wants to see her again...
"Junior Sister, don't be sad, okay?"
Fu Wennian's voice rang out again. This time, he did not try to look into the barrier. Instead, he leaned against the cave entrance, exhausted and trying his best to suppress his sadness. His thin clothes were tattered, and he looked like a skeleton.
"Master... Master's matter is due to Second Senior Brother's incompetence. He knew all along, but still couldn't stop anything."
"I'm sorry, junior sister."
"Really sorry……"
He cultivated so diligently, studying the sealing formation day and night, and prepared countless times in his heart to say goodbye to his fellow disciples on the peak, and then, in place of his master, calmly face death for the sake of all living beings.
But all of these were just his delusions.
He should have realized it sooner. No matter how careful he was, how could he possibly hide his thoughts from the sect leader? He was the one who saw through everything and controlled everything in the sect.
Their fate, ever since that great battle, has been a cycle of life and death, one after another. The master couldn't bear it, but the disciples were willing. In the end, no one was wrong; it was just that someone had to die for the world. That's all.
This time it will be you.
Next time, it will be him.
This is a destiny that is destined to be unsolvable.
Now that Master is gone, the saddest person must be Junior Sister. She knows the truth about Master's passing, and he has entrusted her with the responsibility that he should have borne, asking her to go find Master.
She was unable to bring her master back.
She will definitely blame herself, and she will definitely feel that it was her fault for not being able to save her master, and that she was the one who caused her master's death.
But that's not how it works.
He's the one who really needs to apologize.
The rope broke not because of the last pull.
Fu Wennian looked up at the flock of birds flying freely in the sky. His vision blurred for a moment, then gradually cleared.
The tragedy of Zhenfeng will continue, and his grief cannot last too long. As Zhenfeng's second senior brother, he has a responsibility and must find a way to end this tragedy.
Or be ready at any time to take the place of everyone on the front lines.
But before that, there was something he absolutely had to tell his junior sister.
“Junior Sister, all those who perform rituals will eventually leave this world completely. It may take a month, or it may take a year... Senior Brother, and the people of the sect, they may not remember that our Array Peak once had a Peak Master who sacrificed his life for all of them.”
"Junior Sister... don't tell Senior Brother and Qingqing about Master. Let them... let them just forget Master. It's enough that only the two of us are suffering."
