Chapter 0121 – How Easy It Is to Forget – Absolute Returns

Lee Ann Heart and I traveled all the way to the mountains and continued our journey.

The destination of this trip was the Ghost Sect, the division of the Ghost Spirit. There were still some days before the wedding, so we traveled all the way and had a good time.

Along the way, we met all kinds of people. There are the lustful thief who covets the beauty of the heart, there are also sincere love, willing to give everything for her love of the gentleman, and even there is a rich old man, holding silver and gold treasures to propose marriage. The result is, naturally, the thief lost his life, the son was sad and in tears, the old man lost face.

Although she had seen all kinds of people and experienced different kinds of life, what Heart liked the most was to enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way and taste the specialties of different places. It was thought that everything was full of freshness for her, who had set foot in the Central Plains for the first time, but on the contrary, it was the sinister nature of the people’s hearts that made her avoid it.

It was as if she wanted to imprint it all in her mind, as if she would never have the chance to set foot in this place again. She even started to write down the moments of her journey.

“This dish is so delicious! Your Excellency try it too!”

“I still prefer to eat this.”

“That one’s too spicy, too much of it hurts your stomach.”

“Then how can you live in Sichuan?”

“Even if I cry from the spiciness, I’m going to try all the food in Sichuan!”

We have long ceased to care about the stares of others. Though the beauty of our hearts still attracts a lot of stares, we don’t care, and those people are just like air to us.

“My lord, is it really okay for us to roam around like this?”

“Is something wrong?”

“The Grand Duke must be trying to bring those Demon Elders together now, right?”

“I suppose so.”

“What if the Blood Heavenly Blade Demon joins forces with the Grand Duke again?”

“Then grab it back again, it’s exciting to think about!”

“Your Excellency is still really relaxed and at ease, but I’m getting more and more uneasy in my heart.”

“Don’t worry, what should be mine, even if I hide it, I can’t hide it; what shouldn’t be mine, even if I call myself a brother with the Demon Esteem every day, it won’t help. Besides, what I’m doing now is much more than pulling in the Demon Lords.”

“What is it?”

“Feed the fish.”

Heart pointed to himself and I smiled and nodded.

She always forgets the pain after the wound. If I hadn’t caught her fish first, how would she have had the chance to meet other fish? People’s hearts are unpredictable, people’s hearts are fickle, how could she forget who first extended a helping hand to her and who has always been by her side?

Heart smiled wryly, “Fish do eat well these days.”

“Then you must keep my goodness in mind, so that you won’t be able to say that I lacked love and trust in you!”

“Since Your Excellency has said so, I’ll order another plate!”

“Then bring up the plates next to it as well!”

Of course, we did not desert our martial arts for the sake of pleasure.

We ran and cut along the way, spending almost all of our time practicing martial arts, except for eating and enjoying the scenery.

I’ve recently been pondering over and over the essence of the martial arts left behind by Patriarch Ten Thousand Evils.

Those feelings resonated wonderfully with the twelve stars of the “Flying Sword Technique” I was practicing, allowing me to vaguely touch the opportunity for a breakthrough. I knew that this feeling meant that I was about to make another breakthrough, so I didn’t dare to relax for a moment.

The cultivation of her heart had also advanced by leaps and bounds. Since opening up the Ren and Dudu two veins, her “Flying Heavenly Sword Technique” had already cultivated to the peak of the eighth layer, and was just one step away from breaking through to the ninth layer. ” realm.

In addition to swordsmanship, light kung fu is also a must for us to learn every day.

“Ah…”

Heart leapt down from the cliff, and although she still couldn’t help but scream out, her movements were much more skillful than before. Her originally panicked limbs were now able to reorient themselves in a calm and collected manner.

At the moment she was about to hit the ground, Heart’s body continuously flipped several times in the air and finally landed firmly on the ground. Although she stumbled forward a few steps due to inertia, she finally managed to jump off the cliff with her own strength.

“I did it!”

The heart bounces in place with excitement.

I followed close behind and landed lightly beside her. For that last distance, it was as if I stepped on an invisible ladder, step by step, down through the air, watching my heart in awe.

“It’s not because of you, causing me to jump off the cliff with you every day, and my lightness has naturally improved rapidly.”

“How can you say that? I went through a lot of trouble to make it work, can’t you just compliment me?”

“I’m human too, I want to show off in front of you once in a while.”

“You’re good enough to not even need to show off.”

“Hey, I’d really like you to compliment me more, preferably until I’m so blissed out that I’m floating.”

“Yeah, I’ll brag about you as long as you want.”

Although her heart is submissive to me, she is at heart a freedom-loving, optimistic, bright, and focused on her personal life and happiness. And because of that, I cherish her and love her even more.

Heart drew his longsword and said with a smile, “Alright, Gongzi, it’s time to make good on your promise, come on, let me see some of your superior skills!”

We fought painfully.

To increase the difficulty, we deliberately chose to prancing and jumping on the cliff face, attacking each other. Sword qi streaked across the air, colliding with dazzling sparks in the air. While we dodged each other’s attacks, we also had to carefully control our body shape to avoid falling down the cliff.

Heart had several brushes with death. She fell from the cliff and struggled back up again, and before she could catch her breath, my sword aura was upon her. She narrowly dodged my attack while swinging her sword back at the same time, then continued to climb upwards.

It was truly a duel between masters. Although it was me who deliberately set a trap and guided her step by step towards it, she was always able to resourcefully resolve the crisis and her strength soared. And I also gained new insights in the process of teaching her.

As we returned to the top of the cliff again, the bout finally came to a close.

“After opening up the Ren and Dudu veins, the operation of true qi and the power of moves are incomparable.”

“Do you know what that means?”

“I know.”

Heart’s eyes were incomparably determined. Although she loved to swim in the mountains and taste good food, she was also a natural martial artist at heart. Nothing could make her happier than martial arts refinement.

“You’re doing great.”

“That’s for sure, don’t even look at whose disciple it is!”

Her eyes were filled with gratitude and admiration.

“Haven’t you always wanted to see someone’s wedding? Go over that mountain ahead and you’ll be at the destination of our trip.”

“But why is the Prince still hesitant to stop this wedding?”

“I promised someone else I’d help him stop this wedding.”

There are things that I can tell my heart without reservation, but this is the only thing that I have trouble talking about.

I once told Ghostbusters heartlessly to give up on the marriage and stop obsessing about it. But I know that the reason he betrayed me and chose to go back in time was perhaps to stop the marriage.

If it wasn’t for Ghost Spirit, I wouldn’t have had the chance to go back to the past at all. He went so far as to betray me in order to go back to the past, and I understand his bitterness.

Who can resist the temptation of having a chance to change their fate and get a new life? Perhaps the reason he chose to betray me in the first place was to escape from this marriage, from that unpleasant past.

Although the final decision would not be made until after meeting Ghost Spirit, I already had an answer in my heart. Since he was so eager to stop this wedding, I would help him out.

“The woman who is to be married, is that the gentleman’s intended?”

“I don’t think so?”

I’m afraid there’s no worse “intended recipient”. After all, Ghost said himself that the marriage was his nightmare.

“I just want to go see an old friend.”

Xu Ran.

My only friend when I was a ronin. If it hadn’t been for Reiko’s sister telling me the secret of “Reincarnation**”, I would have never known the truth.

“Come on, let’s go meet them.”

I took a leap of faith and jumped off the cliff.

“Wait for me! I’m afraid of heights!” Heart shouted from behind him.
