With an expression of self-blame and feeling guilty until she almost cried, she said: âMiss Su, are you in the midst of blaming me? But I am truly concerned about you, how could you say such things about me?â
Su Luo also didnât expect that the kind of noble, virtuous and icily arrogant Jade Lakeâs Fairy she had first met back then, would in a split second, change into a lovely, pitiful, delicate, white lotus flower. She couldnât help but give her a thumbs up in her heart.
She really could act, her performance was truly great.
Look at that lovely, pitiful, little appearance, it was a much better act when compared to Lan Xuan and their performance earlier. If Lan Xuan and them had this kind of acting skills, not to say one hundred Amethyst Thorned fishes, even one thousand fishes, she would present it to them without blinking an eye.
The Jade Lakeâs Fairy was still not finished, her slender fair hand tugged at Nangong Liuyunâs sleeves with an appealing-for-fairness-and-justice manner: âThird senior brother, you say, just a moment ago, what I said, isnât it truly because I was concerned about Miss Su? I really didnât expect that her inner heart would be this weak. I really didnât do it on purpose.â
Nangong Liuyun merely looked at her with an indifferent smile and didnât speak a word.
âThird senior brother, why donât you say something? Only you can get back justice for me.â Delicate as a white lotus flower, that pair of beautiful eyes was misty with tears. If she hadnât seen it with her own eyes, everyone would believe that she had suffered endless times of being wronged.
Su Luo raised an eyebrow, with a ghost of a smile, she cast a sidelong glance at Nangong Liuyun. She really wanted to see what kind of justice Nangong Liuyun would deal out.
Yet, Nangong Liuyun still hadnât stepped forth to declare his position before another man, that had stood by the Jade Lakeâs Fairyâs side since the beginning, stepped out. He glared threateningly at Su Luo with an imposing manner.
The double-edged sword in his hand suddenly thrust out.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âDare to be disrespectful to Yaoyao, courting death!â
Li Aotianâs voice was proud and coldly detached, his longsword was even more sinister and bone-chilling. It showed no quarter as it thrust towards Su Luoâs throat.
Nobody would have anticipated that Li Aotian actually said he would take action, and immediately did just that. Moreover, he went straight for a killing maneuver.
Also, what kind of person was Li Aotian? He was Jade Lake Palaceâs younger generationâs number two master expert, now, he was already at the sixth rank, merely one short rank below Nangong Liuyun, and nothing more.
The ice-cold long sword thrust towards Su Luoâs throat, relentlesslyââ
Su Luoâs eyes were as serene as water.
Nangong Liuyun, will you look on unfeelingly as I fall in a pool of blood?
The corner of Su Luoâs mouth lifted into a fireworks kind of desolate smile.
Just when the longsword was at a distance about a handâs width from Su Luoâs throat, all of a sudden, a fine, white finger with distinct joints, abruptly appeared, and lightly flicked that longsword. Immediately, that imposing and threatening longsword unexpectedly twisted to the side, cleanly brushing pass Su Luoâs slim neck.
âNangong Liuyun!â Li Aotian, utterly discomfited, glared at Nangong.
He didnât expect that Nangong Liuyun would take action at the very last second.
Hadnât Yaoyao already pulled to stop him? Wasnât he already intimate with Yaoyao to the point that nothing could come between them?
Nangong Liuyun slowly stood up, his sideways glance meeting up with the Jade Lakeâs Fairyâs gaze. The corner of his mouth was hooked into an extremely weird smile, he reached out his hands to brush his sleeves. He easily flicked away the Jake Lakeâs Fairyâs hand that was wrapped around his arm with not the least bit of tenderness, directly and efficiently.
The Jade Lakeâs Fairy looked in astonishment at her comforting hand that was just removed, in a daze, she stared fixedly at Nangong Liuyun: âThird senior brother...â
âUhm.â Nangong Liuyun unhurriedly walked to Su Luoâs side and stood side by side with her. He smiled a smile that was yet not one at the Jade Lakeâs Fairy. He then raised an eyebrow and smilingly said, but his tone was deeply cold: âItâs good that you still remember I am your third senior brother.â
âThird senior brother...â The Jade Lakeâs Fairy took a step forward, wretchedly looking at this figure that led her soul around in a dreamlike state.
âRemember it, I will forever be your third senior brother, but it is only this single identity to you.â Nangong Liuyun held Su Luoâs hand and pulled it up.
