Chapter 87 Carpet Manufacturing Accident (4)

Li Muyun smiled and said, “No matter when or where, as long as you are willing to share, my ears will always be open to you.”

Qian Renxue’s sly smile became even more intense. She took a step back, her golden eyes sparkling with agility and playfulness, like the cunningest stars in the night sky. She raised her hand slightly, and lightly touched Li Muyun’s chest with her fingertips. The action was a bit teasing, but also reserved as a woman.

“You have a nice thought,” she chuckled, her voice clear and pleasant, like the sound of a mountain spring, but also with a hint of subtle teasing, “But, my secret is not so easy to be heard. Unless…”

Having said this, she deliberately prolonged her tone, with a cunning gleam in her eyes, like a cat about to catch its prey.

She slowly walked to the window, the sunlight shone on her through the half-open curtains, giving her a soft golden glow. She turned around but did not speak, as if waiting for Li Muyun to ask.

Li Muyun was tickled by her sly smile, and couldn’t help but follow a few steps forward. The sunlight shone through the window, stretching and interweaving their shadows, as if foreshadowing some unfinished fate. He chuckled, with a bit of pampering in his voice: “Unless what? Tell me, so that I, a mortal, can also have a chance to glimpse the secrets of the fairy.”

Qian Renxue turned around, her golden eyes sparkling even more in the sunlight, and a mysterious smile appeared on her lips, “Unless you can find the sea of ​​​​glass flowers hidden on the top of the sea of ​​​​clouds on a full moon night, and bring back the most gorgeous glazed flower for me. Then, my secret will be like this sea of ​​​​flowers, fully blooming for you.”

Li Muyun heard this and a hint of curiosity flashed in his eyes. He asked softly, “Liuli Flower? What kind of rare flower is it that you cherish so much?”

Qian Renxue smiled slightly, and that smile seemed to dispel all the haze in the world. She spoke slowly, her voice gentle and long: “In ancient legends, glass flowers are the embodiment of the purest emotions between heaven and earth. They grow on the top of the unreachable sea of ​​clouds and bloom only once a year on the night of the full moon. Their petals are crystal clear, like the first ray of sunlight condensed in the morning light, and each one carries an unfinished love.”

When she said this, her eyes seemed to reflect the dreamlike sea of ​​flowers, and she continued, “Legend has it that a long, long time ago, there was a pair of lovers who loved each other deeply, but could not be together due to worldly constraints. They turned into two stars, forever looking at each other from afar. And every full moon night, their longing turned into glass flowers, blooming on the top of the sea of ​​clouds that no one could reach, proving that true love is invincible and transcends life and death and distance.”

Li Muyun’s heart seemed to be gently stirred by a warm current. He suddenly realized something, and his eyes flashed with an unprecedented light. He looked at Qian Renxue, and the cunning and expectation in her golden eyes intertwined into a moving picture, which made his heart beat faster. He slowly took a step forward, and the distance between the two of them was shortened again, so close that they could feel each other’s breathing.

“I understand,” he said softly, with an unprecedented firmness in his voice. “The Glazed Flower is not only a miracle on the top of the sea of ​​clouds, but also a metaphor for your feelings for me. You are willing to use such a pure thing as a test, how can I, Li Muyun, back down?”

Qian Renxue’s eyes were rolling, and a hint of mischief flashed in her golden eyes. She gently raised her chin, and a playful arc was drawn at the corner of her mouth, like the most naughty wind in spring, gently blowing through Li Muyun’s heart. The sunlight shone through her hair, casting mottled light and shadow, adding a bit of indescribable holiness and mystery to her already beautiful face.

“Li Muyun, aren’t you afraid that I’m talking nonsense?” Her words were gentle, but they carried a trace of unquestionable power, as if they could directly touch the softest part of people’s hearts. After she finished speaking, she smiled gently, and that smile had both the innocence of a child and a bit of cunning in the adult world, making it difficult to understand.

Li Muyun stared at Qian Renxue, a gentle arc appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his voice was firm and gentle: “I believe you, you won’t lie to me. Every word you say, every smile of yours is like the brightest star in the night sky, guiding me in the direction of my progress.”

Qian Renxue’s eyes sparkled with curiosity and a hint of subtle shyness. She tiptoed lightly and leaned forward slightly. Her golden pupils seemed to be able to see through people’s hearts. She stared straight at Li Muyun, and her voice was full of playfulness and expectation: “You have cared about me so much since childhood. I want to know why. Could it be that in the future that your Mirror Heart Martial Spirit has seen, I really became your… wife?”

As she spoke, a blush quietly appeared on her cheeks, like a peach blossom blooming in the morning light, delicate and beautiful. The sunlight shone through the window lattice and sprinkled on her delicate face, coating her with a layer of gentle gold, adding a bit of indescribable holiness and temptation.

Hearing this, Li Muyun smiled faintly, his eyes were gentle and deep, as if he could see through the mist of time and look directly into the deepest part of his heart. He shook his head gently, his voice gentle but firm: “Well, the future is indeed as unpredictable as the sea of ​​clouds, full of unknowns and challenges. But in my opinion, no matter how the future unfolds, what is important is how we grasp the present and how we sincerely face each other’s feelings.”

He leaned forward slightly, and the distance between them was so close that they could almost hear each other’s heartbeats. Li Muyun’s eyes were full of sincerity and courage: “If one day, you find that I don’t meet your expectations, or you don’t like me anymore, I will choose to respect your choice. Because true love is not just about possession, but also about letting go and fulfilling. But before that, I will do my best to prove my intentions and to protect this possible beauty.”

When Qian Renxue heard this, a complex emotion flashed in her golden eyes, as if she had crossed the barrier of time and space and returned to that stormy night in her previous life. She bit her lip lightly, with a barely perceptible tremor in her voice: “What if one day, I… die?”

Her gaze penetrated the sunlight in front of her and fell into the depths of distant and vague memories. The scene changed, and it was the ruins of the collapsed Spirit Hall. The moonlight was like blood, reflecting her lonely and resolute figure.

She remembered that she had stood on the edge of a cliff, looking at the devastation, her heart filled with despair and unwillingness. In order to protect her last dignity and prevent the enemy from tainting her soul, she resolutely chose to end her life, allowing her life to bloom with the most brilliant sparks at that moment.

Li Muyun smiled and said, “If you die, I will die too. In every corner of this world, my life will be closely connected with yours, and we will share life and death. You are not only the object of my heart, but also the destination of my soul.”

His words echoed in the quiet air with an unquestionable determination. Li Muyun knew that he had traveled here, not only to experience the life of Douluo Continent, but also to fulfill a secret and heavy mission – to capture Qian Renxue. This was a task assigned by the system, and it was also his most sincere desire.

He knew that if he failed to complete this task and Qian Renxue died, he and he would also face an unknown fate. The final result would be to be wiped out by the system!
