The Dragon Warrior Pair
DWP 235 - Chat
The arrival of Xue Bingyue made Jing Yang aware of her daydream. Jing Yang told Xue Bingyue that he had other purposes besides finishing off the Demon Skull Island. To carry out his other goal, Jing Yang needed great courage because all of this was concerned with the energy of human life.
“Yang, what do you mean you will do a forbidden technique?” Xue Bingyue did not understand the intent of Jing Yang's words.
“Kot more like that. I intend to awaken the Sword Spirits of Yue Wang and Lingling at the cost of a thousand human lives. I think in the battle later, I can do that.” Jing Yang said that confidently before smiling, “But to do that, I need great courage.”
Xue Bingyue had only heard of the technique that Jing Yang was talking about. Even Shen Mi who heard the chatter felt fear from imagining Jing Yang killing two thousand people just to awaken the Sword Spirit Yue Wang and Lingling.
The first condition made Jing Yang feel confident, but after the Sword Spirit Yue Wang and Lingling got up, Jing Yang also had to do the same if he wanted to get the power help of the two Sword Spirits.
Human life is the second food of the Sword Spirit. I don't know what made Jing Yang think this way, but after knowing the Three Immortal Skulls, Jing Yang felt that he had to do something to protect everything.
It was no easy matter to bear the huge burden on her shoulders, Jing Yang had always thought too hard and wanted to overcome everything by himself. And that harsh thought made Jing Yang always say what she had in mind unconsciously to the person who gained her trust.
“Yang, I was thinking if you could start relying on me. But I was wrong, you don't trust anyone including myself.” Xue Bingyue was annoyed and stared angrily at Jing Yang.
“Yueyue, sorry..” Jing Yang realized his mistake, he smiled awkwardly before finally apologizing to Xue Bingyue.
Xue Bingyue only smiled at Jing Yang's behavior. He realized Jing Yang had gone through greater suffering than him. He realized the young man was saying all that because he wanted to protect himself and those closest to him.
“Even if you do all that to protect everything, but you have to remember one thing which if we are all beside you and you are not alone.” Xue Bingyue confirmed that Jing Yang did not always think negatively.
Jing Yang nodded his head in a sign he understood, before long he gave Xue Bingyue and Shen Mi time to chat together as he saw Xue Lihua heading towards the Lonely Cliff.
“Yueyue, Shen Mi, I will talk to Senior Lihua for a while. I will persuade him not to join the battle.” Not waiting until Xue Bingyue or Shen Mi replied, Jing Yang had already moved towards the place where Xue Lihua was leaving Xue Bingyue and Shen Mi who were dying from not having time to speak.
Xue Bingyue and Shen Mi stared at each other. The two looked confused as to what to behave after Jing Yang's departure.
‘Satisfaction suddenly awkward...’ Shen Mi let out a long sigh and smiled warmly towards Xue Bingyue before greeting the sweet girl.
“Don't we know each other?” Shen Mi started a chat with Xue Bingyue to dispel the awkward atmosphere between the two.
“How do I call you?” Xue Bingyue asked because Shen Mi was older than him. Besides Xue Bingyue had already heard about Shen Mi's sacrificial services to Jing Yang for taking care of the Five Color House and realizing Jing Yang's little dream.
In addition, the Dragon Treasure Tower that Shen Mi had formed was growing rapidly. If not for the development of the Demon Skull Island, the Dragon Treasure Tower would have expanded its reach abroad other than the Jiang Empire.
“Miss Yue, you can call me Shen Mi.” Shen Mi replied with a sweet smile looking at the snow falling around her.
“Nona Yue?” Xue Bingyue replied while holding her chin, then she smiled sweetly after looking thinking for a moment, “Sister Mimi, I will call you that name. You're older than me anyway. You can call me Yueyue if you want.”
Shen Mi was surprised by Xue Bingyue's attitude which she thought was different from what she had thought before. Shen Mi had thought that Xue Bingyue was the type of person who was difficult to approach and cold, but was different from what she saw in front of her now.
“Alright, I'll call you Yueyue, what can I do?” Shen Mi again threw the question answered an enthusiastic nod of the head from Xue Bingyue.
Both of them were silent for a long time looking at the snow falling around them. After calling each other's names, the two fell silent and no one started a chat.
Xue Bingyue herself could clearly tell Shen Mi's feelings for Jing Yang. Perhaps it was because of Xue Que's love story and romance, Xue Bingyue could think so.
‘I'd better ask to make sure..’ Xue Bingyue nodded after watching Shen Mi for a moment.
“Sister Mimi.” Xue Bingyue mentioned Shen Mi's name while looking towards Shen Mi noticed the young girl who was flicking her hair back.
“What's Yueyue?” shen Mi Sahut.
Xue Bingyue did not immediately ask but she walked towards the flowers growing around the Lonely Cliff. The flowers that bloom this winter are the resources of Moon Snow Island.
Lin Song's coup was still clearly remembered in Xue Bingyue's mind. The flowers that were blooming and falling at the same time made Xue Bingyue's mind go back in time.
“Sister Mimi, do you have feelings for Yangyang?” Xue Bingyue opened her voice after a long silence, “I want an honest answer from you. Don't hesitate, tell me the truth.”
“If I answer yes, will I be angry with you, Yueyue?” Shen Mi put on a serious expression as she answered Xue Bingyue's question just now.
Xue Bingyue's smile faded and wore a serious expression just like Shen Mi. Now the two stared at each other before Shen Mi finally opened her voice.
“I have feelings for him. I know she is younger than me, but Yueyue you as a woman should know this feeling.” Shen Mi held onto her chest and felt the pounding of her heart, “My heart has been snatched by her and I am sure if she is the man who deserves this feeling.”
“I will give everything to him, be it my past and my future.” Shen Mi added.
Shen Mi's honest reply made Xue Bingyue smile in satisfaction. She herself had already guessed if Shen Mi had any special feelings for Jing Yang. For what Shen Mi sacrificed her future, rejecting every man's proposal even willingly take care of the Five Color House and raising the Dragon Treasure Tower if not for Jing Yang.
Shen Mi felt a little guilty for telling her honest feelings, but at the same time she felt relieved.
On the other hand Xue Bingyue had not said anything after hearing Shen Mi's confession. Xue Bingyue compared herself to Shen Mi, if she thought back Shen Mi sacrificed more to Jing Yang than she did. Knowing that fact made Xue Bingyue smile wryly.
“Yueyue?” Shen Mi felt guilty after seeing Xue Bingyue's attitude and smile just now.
“Sorry, I know your relationship with Emperor Yang but I cannot deny my feelings this.” Shen Mi said again.
Seeing Xue Bingyue not responding to her words, Shen Mi finally told Xue Bingyue that Jing Yang always told her about her figure.
“Yueyue, you should know how big my sacrifice is, she always looks at you.” Shen Mi said softly making Xue Bingyue glance at him.
“I don't think so..” Xue Bingyue responded to Shen Mi's remark just now, “Yang who also has special feelings for you, I believe it.”
Shen Mi widened her eyes hearing the truth of Xue Bingyue. At first he had thought Xue Bingyue was just joking, but Xue Bingyue's expression clearly showed seriousness.
“That's pretty greedy, you should know it Brother Mimi. I myself have been setting my feelings since that night and I will give everything to Yangyang.”
Xue Bingyue who said that smiled faintly and ended it with a sigh.
“Yueyue, what do you mean by greed?” Shen Mi did not understand the meaning of Xue Bingyue's words.
“Why are you asking that, Brother Mimi? Didn't you know that?” Xue Bingyue explained to Shen Mi about the figure of Jing Yang who was Emperor Jiang.
“Sister Mimi must have known this term.” Xue Bingyue smiled and held onto some of her fine hair, “A great Emperor or swordsman is natural to have more than one wife."
Shen Mi laughed at Xue Bingyue's words. He had thought that Xue Bingyue would say what, but instead said this.
“Yueyue, are you worried? Looks like you don't have to worry about anything because I'm very sure the Emperor will choose you.” Shen Mi wiped away her tears from laughing.
Hearing that Xue Bingyue frowned, “Sister Mimi, what would you do if Yangyang chose me?”
Shen Mi shook her head slowly and sighed lightly, “I will support your relationship. If in the future the Emperor chooses only you, then I will take it. But if he chooses the two of us, I would willingly be second even third for him.”
This time Xue Bingyue choked in disbelief. He stared elaborately at Shen Mi before reopening his voice.
“Are you serious, Brother Mimi?”
“Serious.” Shen Mi replied as Xue Bingyue asked.
Xue Bingyue was astonished by Shen Mi's feelings because after all the girl did not look to have any trouble finding a male figure. Beautiful, graceful, noble descendants, good at managing finances even have their own business at a young age.
Of course there would be many men who glanced at Shen Mi, but it was a pity that Shen Mi's heart had been lured to Jing Yang.
Xue Bingyue heaved a sigh of relief before smiling, Xue Bingyue felt relieved because she thought Shen Mi was fun to talk to. Moreover, the female chatter just made him remember his chatter when he was with Xue Que.
“Right now I don't care about any of that. I don't know who in the future Yangyang will choose, at this time I want to give my best to end everything.” Xue Bingyue smiled as she looked at the sky and steadied her heart to focus on breaking through the Spirit Swordsman.
‘I won't let you be far ahead of me Yangyang.’
