Chapter 1931: Wrong Person?
Chapter 1931: Wrong Person?
Xi Yue’s mind became a tangled mess as she stared blankly at the man who was holding her, losing both the ability to think and speak.
When they were at Biluo Peak, she immediately dismissed the possibility that Ji Mingyu could be Nangong Yu.
But now, standing before her was a face identical to Nangong Yu’s, with that familiar aura. Could it be that they weren’t the same person after all?
Xi Yue swallowed hard, suddenly remembering that when she had treated Nangong Yu for the cold poison, she had noticed a small plum blossom-shaped scar on his chest.
Nangong Yu had explained that the scar was from a burn caused by the fire crystal in the Flame Cave, a wound that could never fully heal. Even if he ascended to the next realm and overcame the tribulations of the heavens, reaching a cultivation that could grant him eternal life, the scar would remain.
The thought struck Xi Yue like a lightning bolt, as if something had taken control of her mind. Without warning, she stepped forward and grabbed Ji Mingyu’s collar.
Even Ji Mingyu, usually so composed, was momentarily stunned. He reached out to grip her slender, pale wrist.
Just as he was about to speak, Xi Yue brushed his hand away impatiently. “Don’t move. Let me see!” she insisted.
As soon as the words left her mouth, she yanked open the man’s collar, revealing his smooth, bare chest, the muscles sculpted and perfectly defined.
“Wow—!!!”
“Oh my God! What is 007 doing? He is taking off 0’s clothes!”
“Ah! 0’s figure is so good. Go away, 007. Don’t tarnish 0!”
The audience erupted in an uproar!
This is supposed to be a duel with thousands of spectators. But what the hell is unfolding before my eyes at this moment?
Besides, aren’t the two of you men?
A flicker of surprise crossed Ji Mingyu’s face, but soon, a tender smile of indulgence appeared in his eyes.
He took the girl’s hand and pressed it to his chest, his expression calm and silent. Yet, the tenderness in his eyes seemed to say—My body belongs to you, and only you have the right to touch it.
However, Xi Yue froze, her face draining of color as she stood there in shock.
There was no plum blossom-shaped scar, no lingering heat from the fire crystal burn, and most importantly, none of the cold poison that constantly clung to Nangong Yu’s body.
Xi Yue stared blankly as she withdrew her hand, a hollow emptiness settling in her chest. It felt as if all her strength had drained away, leaving her unable to even stand.
He’s not Nangong Yu!
Yes, how could it be Nangong Yu? Didn’t I already know it?
Nangong Yu was already dead. The only way to bring him back was for her to unlock the wood source and gather enough pagoda power to revive him.
Hadn’t she already mentally prepared herself to move forward step by step, unwavering and resolute, waiting for Nangong Yu’s return without hesitation or doubt?
Xi Yue took a deep breath, forcing the searing pain in her chest down. She released Ji Mingyu’s collar and, her voice hoarse. “Sorry, I mistook you for someone else. I forfeit this match.”
With that said, she turned around and left.
In the arena, unless the soul was severely damaged, one couldn’t exit the Spirit Refining Domain directly without risking harm to the soul. The only way for her to leave the Spirit Refining Domain was to first step out of the arena. R̃ἁΝ𝐨𝐁Е𐌔
Suddenly, Ji Mingyu found himself holding nothing but air. He stared blankly at the girl’s indifferent figure as she walked away, a surge of overwhelming emotion flooding his heart. His dark eyes turned bloodshot, tinged with a deep, murderous red.
