Princess Xiangsi - Chapter 185
Qingyun sighed inwardly.
For some reason, she suddenly felt restless. She got up, put on an outer robe, and went outside.
A bright moon hung in the night sky, like a young girl's delicate eyebrow. Its silvery light created a gentle and graceful atmosphere between heaven and earth. Seeing such a scene, Qingyun's restless mood gradually calmed down.
She walked onto a small bridge, looked down at the shimmering moonlight on the river, and a gentle smile appeared on her lips.
The river surface shimmered with ripples of silver light.
Suddenly, an idea popped into Qingyun's mind. Her eyes darted around quickly, and then she gave a sly smile.
Qingyun held her breath, concealing her aura, and tiptoed into Lige's room.
Before going to sleep, Li Ge opened the window, and the soft moonlight gently poured down on him. He lay peacefully on the bed with his eyes closed, his handsome face even more alluring in the moonlight, his thin red lips like tempting red berries.
Qingyun muttered to herself.
This man is a total heartbreaker! Even if he falls into poverty later, he can still use his looks to swindle women out of money. Tsk tsk, following him would guarantee you'd never go hungry!
Qingyun carefully approached Lige's bedside. She knew that Lige was a light sleeper like her, and would be immediately awakened by even the slightest sound.
Suddenly, Qingyun sneezed slightly.
She was immediately startled and quickly covered her mouth, silencing the rest of the sound. She looked at Li Ge anxiously and found him still sleeping peacefully, showing no signs of being awakened.
Qingyun breathed a slight sigh of relief, but the next moment her brows furrowed. With Li Ge's skill and his vigilance, he should have been awakened by now! But—Qingyun's lips pressed tightly together.
At this moment, Li Ge frowned, his face showing great pain, and he murmured, "Woman..."
Qingyun leaned down, listening quietly to his words. In her heart, however, she wondered what kind of dream he was having? Why did he look so pained? Why was he calling her name?
"...I won't kill you, I never will..."
Qingyun's lips twitched slightly. Could it be that in his dream, she and he were enemies?
"...Even if you go crazy, you are still you, and you will always be my woman..."
Qingyun's lips twitched again. Her mind wandered; in his dream, she was driven mad, yet he still deeply loved her even in her madness. Wow! What a touching love story!
"...I will definitely find something to replace the glass bead bracelet to suppress the demonic energy within you..."
Qingyun was taken aback.
Demonic power?! The demonic power within her?!
Suddenly, as if she had just realized something, she covered her mouth in surprise, her face filled with disbelief.
Meijue possesses demonic power; she is her daughter, so what is within her...?
She had read a book that told her that demonic nature could be transferred from a mother to her daughter.
She recalled everything from the past, how her eyes would turn silver when she was emotional, the old man's words, and Li Ge's recent strange behavior...
Qingyun bit her lower lip tightly, trying to stop the gasps from escaping her lips.
Suddenly, Qingyun frantically searched for a mirror in Lige's room. When she found a bronze mirror, she stared intently at her reflection.
Qingyun's face in the mirror was deathly pale. Her once clear eyes seemed to be filled with silvery ripples, which shimmered under the moonlight, adding a touch of sinister charm.
Qingyun stared at the bronze mirror. In that instant, she saw a bright red flower of blood bloom in the mirror.
"Clang!"
The moment the mirror shattered, Qingyun's swaying body fell into a warm embrace with a faint scent of pear blossoms.
Li Ge was awakened by Qing Yun's hurried footsteps. He opened his eyes to see Qing Yun frantically searching for something. When he saw the bronze mirror fall to the ground, he rushed forward without hesitation and caught her.
Qingyun's face was unusually pale, and the silver in her eyes grew deeper and deeper.
"Li Ge, is there a demonic force within me?" Her voice trembled.
Li Ge was startled and pressed her hands tightly against Li Ge's shoulders.
He looked into her eyes.
It was completely covered in silver...
"Is it true? Li Ge, tell me! Is it true or not?" Seeing Li Ge's expression, she was certain of her guess. But she was unwilling to give up; she wanted to hear him say it himself.
"……yes."
Li Ge's trembling voice was like the cruelest knife slowly torturing her heart! She felt that her usually calm heart was now being churned into a raging storm, about to be buried deep in an endless abyss.
An image flashed through her mind: when the demonic nature within her was fully unleashed, she would become ruthless, killing anyone in her path, turning into a great demon of the martial world. At that time, everyone would have the right to kill her.
The silver in Qingyun's black eyes deepened, eventually becoming quite intimidating.
"woman!"
Li Ge lifted her chin and kissed her lips passionately.
Looking at her expression, Li Ge guessed what was on her mind. If she was being slowly sliced to death, then wasn't he in the same predicament?
He didn't want her to think about these ugly things; he just wanted her to be a happy woman.
Li Ge's lips were warm, while Qing Yun's lips were cold.
Their lips met, and Li Ge transferred his warmth to Qingyun. He was telling the irrational Qingyun in his own way that she was not alone; she still had him by her side, and he would face everything with her. No matter how she changed, she would still be his Qingyun.
