A secluded house in the world.

Runyu stood outside the closed door, facing the empty courtyard, her lips pressed together and her hands clenched.

After leaving Wangchuan, although the boatman who punted the boat showed that he couldn't detect Fu Qing's existence, Runyu, who was still unclear about the situation, still didn't dare to take Fu Qing to the heaven, so he took her to the mortal world first.Regarding Fu Qing's matter, he deserves to be cautious.

Along the way, Fu Qing only asked Runyu a word on the Wangchuan River, on the boat that ferryed the old man.

That sentence may be a bit of a test to see if the boatman can't hear her intentions except that he can't see her as he behaved, but more, it is what she takes seriously and cares about most.

"... How long has it been since you came back?"

"...Hundred years." Runyu replied softly, although it might seem strange to the boatman talking to himself.

He could probably guess that Fu Qing who asked this question probably came here together for some reason when he came back, and then... It is very likely that she was trapped in Wangchuan alone for 100 years, and even she became what she is now. Also a possibility……

Runyu has never felt so powerless for a moment, and hated for missing the self who let her alone for a whole 100 years.Having watched the "plot", he clearly started to pay attention to the Demon Realm early on, and even arranged for manpower to investigate the crimson bead grass. No... I found out earlier that there is the person he has been thinking about all the time.

After getting Runyu's answer, Fu Qing froze for a moment, then quickly closed her eyes and said nothing.

But before she closed her eyes, although her translucent figure was somewhat blurred in the dim light of Wangchuan, Runyu still clearly captured the sadness that slipped through her eyes instantly, with a feeling of "it really is so" And despair, mixed with a lot of negative emotions, gushing out almost uncontrollably.

Afterwards, even after leaving Wang Chuan and the mysterious boatman, she still lowered her head and said nothing, struggling to let Runyu touch her so that she could lead her to cast spells.

After arriving at this mansion in the mortal world, Runyu sent Fu Qing into the room.After entering the room, she closed her eyes silently.He knew that she might be very tired, but she was not asleep.She was just... avoiding or avoiding something.

Although her heart was blocked, Runyu still thoughtfully said nothing, and after carefully looking at the face that he remembered from time to time, she turned and left the room.

She wants to stay alone quietly, and he is willing to make it happen.He didn't have to ask about things she didn't want to say.

only……

My heart hurts dully.

I don't know how long I stood in the courtyard, although I didn't hear any sound or notice any fluctuations in spiritual power, Runyu still looked back as if feeling something.

Fu Qing, who was transparent, was coming out of the door.

She didn't have a body, so she was lightly suspended in the air from inside the door, and floated out through the wooden door panel.

"... Fu Qing."

Fu Qing, who floated out with lowered eyes, paused for a moment, and unskillfully controlled her translucent body to slowly fall until she could barely "stand" before Fu Qing slowly raised her head, slowly revealing a shallow smile. Smile: "Runyu, long time no see."

Runyu hid the unspeakable complicated thoughts in her heart, faced Fu Qing, and smiled slightly: "Long time no see."

His smile was as clear and warm as she had ever seen before. It was after the world knew everything and calmed down again. It was somewhat transparent and firm, but also exuded a different kind of warmth.Just like what he once sighed personally, when he laughed without any haze or burden, it seemed that the bright stars in the sky fell into his eyes.

Fu Qing was startled for a moment, lowering her eyes slightly.

"... When I saw that you wanted to hold me back, it seemed that you needed to concentrate, and it was very exhausting. Now you don't have a long rest, you...do you feel better?"

"...Well." Fu Qing responded in a low voice: "Just now, I didn't think twice. You go...to the Demon Realm, maybe something happened? I'm sorry, I disturbed you..."

Runyu shook her head and said softly: "No, the affairs of the devil world have already been arranged, and it doesn't matter if I go or not."

Fu Qing lowered her head slightly, without making a sound.

Runyu sighed silently, and continued in a gentle tone: "This is one of Runyu's mortal mansions. If there is no accident, no one else will know about it. Fu Qing, you can cultivate here with peace of mind. If there is anything you need, if there is anything that can benefit you, please tell me. Although at the moment...Runyu's ability is still limited, but if Fu Qing needs anything, Runyu will do his best."

After hearing this, Fu Qing was silent for a moment, then slowly raised her head to look at him: "...don't you ask me?" Her voice was a little erratic: "don't ask me...how did you come here, don't ask me...how did you become ...is it like this now?"

Hearing the final tremor of her voice, Runyu felt a pain in her heart, subconsciously took half a step forward, came to her senses and stood still, still smiling slightly: "I really... want to know more, so I can figure out what to do. Help you, but if it’s just that, it’s the same if you tell me what you need. Therefore, if you don’t want to tell me, I won’t ask, and it’s not necessary to know.”

Fu Qing paused, then laughed lightly: "...As expected, it's something you can say."

After staying in the mortal world for a while, Runyu finally brought Fu Qing to the heavenly realm and into Xuanji Palace.

After repeatedly confirming that the aura of the heavens will not have any bad effects on Fu Qing, I secretly found a few little immortals to test it, no matter whether Fu Qing's condensed energy can be touched by Runyu, others can't see it After hearing nothing, let alone meeting the present Fu Qing, Runyu took Fu Qing back to the heaven.

Runyu tidied up the room next to Yuheng Hall, her dormitory, and set up a few huge bookshelves, moved her collection of books and put them there, apparently using it as a study room for storing books, and gave Kuang some instructions. Lu waits for a few Xuanji Palace Immortal Attendants, just like Yuheng Palace, don't step in easily.Because Fu Qing can't be seen and heard by others now, it would be easy to make people think too much if he left it in an empty room.

One day in the sky, one year on earth.Due to this time difference, although Runyu and Fu Qing were delayed in the mortal world for a long time, in terms of the heaven and the devil realm, it has not been too long. He took Jin Mi to the devil realm to capture Qiongqi Xufeng, but he has not yet returned. .

Bu Xingtai.

Today, Runyu, who did not bring the nightmare beast, stood on the empty star distribution platform, looking sideways at the dazed figure of the person only he could see.

Before going to heaven, Fu Qing finally told the things that Runyu had secretly guessed repeatedly before.

An understatement, just a few words.

As Runyu expected, Fu Qing was indeed accidentally involved in the vortex when he came back and came here.The difference is that Runyu returned to Buxingtai where he disappeared in the first place, while Fu Qing, who had no spiritual power and no spells, fell into Wangchuan.

She said that her body was lost in the River of Forgetfulness, and her soul survived under the protection of his reverse scale by accident.It's just that the Ni Lin he gave her couldn't be kept in the River of Forgetfulness, it melted and merged with her soul.Fu Qing smiled faintly and said to him, she guessed that she stayed in this world for so long and was neither forcibly sent away nor cleared and annihilated. It was TOEFL who fused her soul with his Ni Lin so that she could be recognized and appreciated by the world. accept.As for Runyu's feeling, it was also his reaction to her Nilin breath after she finally got out of the bottom of Wangchuan, without the barrier of Wangchuan river.Even if he was the only one who could see and hear her, that was probably why.

When she said this, her tone was very flat, even a little careless.

but……

Falling into the River of Forgetfulness, even the body of the upper god would be torn and bitten by the ghost, which might even endanger her life. But at that time, she was just an ordinary person.

Runyu didn't forget either, it has been 100 years since he came back here and she fell into the River of Forgetfulness.

100 years, the bottom of Wangchuan River.

Even Runyu couldn't imagine what kind of suffering and pain those 100 years were.

He also clearly remembered the frightened and desperate look in Wangchuan River when she just woke up on the bank of Wangchuan River.

In Runyu's eyes, Fu Qing's already translucent figure looked extraordinarily...fragile and distant under the dim light of the Milky Way.

"Runyu, you said earlier...that vortex appeared here?"

Fu Qing's voice suddenly sounded on the empty star distribution platform, and Runyu pursed her lips:

"Yes. Fu Qing, you... want to go back?"

"...Go back?" She chuckled lightly and raised her head slightly: "Didn't you say that? You spent five months there, but you only came back for less than one night. The time in two worlds is calculated. It's really one day to one year. But... I have been here for 100 years, and my world... I think it has been changed for a long time. Besides, even if I don't care about the change of time, I... Now that you look like this, you don't even have a body, even if you go back... so what?"

"Fu Qing..."

"It's nothing." She closed her eyes, and the state of her soul was a little unclear under the dim night sky: "You know, I live by myself and don't have any relatives to worry about, and my friends... each have their own. Relatives, family, other friends and companions, my world...is missing me, in fact...it's nothing."

Runyu frowned slightly and looked at her profile, feeling endless pain in her heart.

Where... there will be nothing.

"...If you hadn't met me, if you hadn't...the Nilin I left behind, maybe...you wouldn't have been involved." Runyu clenched her hands at her sides, and met her gaze when she opened her eyes, her voice With an extremely imperceptible tremor: "Fu Qing, are you... blaming me?"

Fu Qing looked at him, paused for a moment and laughed lightly: "As you said, it's just maybe. Without your Ni Lin, I'maybe' wouldn't come here, but I know very well that without your Ni Lin, I 'must' have died in the River of Forgetfulness. Besides, I would be involved because I was too careless and fell down the hillside. You never thought about it, and you couldn't predict it at all. So... why am I blaming you?"

Runyu looked deeply at Fu Qing's slightly smiling expression, but the frown became tighter and tighter: "...Runyu, I'd rather you blame me." It would be better to vent her emotions to him, and now she put everything Hold it in your heart, force yourself.

Fu Qing lowered her eyes, even though she understood the unfinished meaning of his words, she didn't say it.She sighed lightly, and hooked the corners of her mouth: "I will... trouble you in the future! As I said earlier, it's probably because of Ni Lin. When I get close to you, I can feel that my soul seems to recover and condense so fast. Some, so... I have the cheek to beg you to keep it for a long time."

Runyu's fingertips moved, and she nodded along with her: "It should be so. As long as you are willing, here, I have everything."

no matter how long.

The author has something to say:

Almost everything has been explained, and the stepmother ran away with the lid on the pot
