C382 Curse
“...”
The sudden confession left Yu Yue at a loss for what to do.
After so many things had happened, Yu Yue looked straight into his heart and found that he had feelings for Shangguan Zhitao other than his friends.
It was just that this was suddenly pointed out and under such circumstances, he did not know how to respond.
Just as he opened his mouth and was about to speak, Shangguan Zhitao smiled and shook her head.
"Don't respond to me. Continue listening to me."
"Actually, after we parted in Blood Red Castle, I didn't go far. I've been following you. Everything you did after that... I saw it all. The encounter with the two elves successfully helped them escape. Participating in the Joust For A Spouse Festival, saving Bu Liuyan from all kinds of complicated situations... All of this... I saw it all. Every time I saw you do those 'foolish things', I would be surprised and think - Ah, so there really is such a fool in this world."
Yu Yue clicked his tongue. Although he had vaguely guessed it, he did not expect her to follow him all the time. He didn't notice it at all. He had no idea that she was following him all the time.
It seemed that Shangguan Zhitao's concealing technique had already reached an extremely high level. It was indeed worthy of the name "White Night Divine Thief."
She continued, "Especially the elf incident. Even I am shocked by your means. You actually did not use any magic from the heavily surrounded city. You successfully smuggled the two living elves out. However, the process at that time had been too dangerous, especially when he had used a carriage to transport the two Elves out of the city. Even I am sweating for you. Fortunately, you have many tricks up your sleeve, to actually set up two layers of darkness. You even put on that show, it really makes me gasp in amazement."
When Yu Yue listened to her narration, he would also think of the scene at that time. That scheme had indeed cost him a lot of effort. Even when he thought of it now, he felt somewhat proud.
"But..." Shangguan Zhitao changed the topic and her eyes became dark. "At that time, in the forest, when you were completely safe. That female elf kissed you forcefully, but you did not seem to resist at all. You even happily welcomed her... You treated me the same way back in Blood Red Castle. You wouldn't treat every woman the same way, would you?"
Her face was very gloomy, and her eyes were filled with ice.
Yu Yue didn't expect that she would also see that matter in her eyes. He felt very awkward.
"Uh... That is..."
Seeing Yu Yue's embarrassed look, Shangguan Zhitao burst into laughter. Her face melted like snow.
"I'm just teasing you. I already know what kind of person you are. Otherwise, I wouldn't have fallen in love with you. You men are all like that. Once you see a girl throwing herself into your arms, you control yourself. I can't help it... When I saw how you guys kissed, my heart suddenly hurt. It was also at that time that I discovered my feelings for you."
" However, even so, I still don't want to believe that I will fall in love with you. That's why I continued to follow you. I wanted to prove through time that I didn't have any feelings for you. It's the same here, even after living together for eight months, I still don't dare to be honest with you. Fate really makes fools of people. When I was truly willing to be honest with my heart, it was already too late..."
"How can it be too late, I actually..." Yu Yue's following words were blocked by Shangguan Zhitao's hand.
She smiled and shook her head. "You don't have to say anymore. My fate has already been decided. Now that Octo Neal is dead, it should be a good time to be happy. You don't have to be sad for me anymore. I am already very satisfied to be able to confess to you and leave. "
Yu Yue pulled her hand away from his mouth and shouted, "I like you!"
Shangguan Zhitao was stunned. Suddenly, two lines of clear tears fell from her eyes.
"Don't worry, I won't let you die. I will remove your curse. Since we have come to Devil Wind Island together, we must return together!"
She smiled and said with tears flowing down her face: "That's enough... I am already very happy that you have such an idea..."
Before she could finish speaking, a pitch-black incantation suddenly emerged from her back and quickly spread to her face.
The pitch black incantation emitted an evil halo. Shangguan Zhitao's expression suddenly became stiff and her eyes lost focus. Her body began to tremble violently and then...
Half an hour later.
Yu Yue held her hand, and tears were already streaming down his face.
He gritted his teeth, and angrily squeezed out a few words from between his teeth.
"Octo Neal... this beast, if he doesn't die, I really want to kill him a hundred more times!"
Just now, Shangguan Zhitao suffered a great amount of pain. It was not easy to describe the details, but after the pain ended, her entire body was drenched. This was completely caused by the sweat from the pain. From this, one could see the degree of pain.2
This torture lasted for three hours. During this time, Yu Yue felt true powerlessness. Even if the person he loved suffered in front of him, he would not be able to help at all. He could only watch her suffer.
This was the pain he should have endured! Thinking of this, he felt even more ashamed in his heart, as if his heart was being twisted by a knife.
When the pain of the curse finally dissipated, she directly fainted. The pitch-black curse symbols all over her body also withdrew.
One of his hands held Shangguan Zhitao's hand, the other tightly clenched. The strength was so great that some parts were even pressed into a purple-red color.
He suddenly said, "Snake Light, is there really no way to remove the curse in her body? No matter what method it is, as long as there is any method, say it out. No matter how difficult it is, I will do my best to fight for it. "
He really didn't believe that in such a large world, there was no way to dispel the curse of the devil origin.
The Snake Light had seen the miserable scene just now. The miserable state was something that even he, who had lived for over a thousand years and had long steeled his heart, was shaken. This was truly too painful.
Even though he'd heard of the fierce name of the Devil Origin Curse before, he'd never seen it either. Only after he truly witnessed it did he know that the rumors of the Devil Origin Curse that year weren't false, and even surpassed them.
He sighed. "To be honest, there is a way to remove the curse of the devil origin, but..."
He looked hesitant.
Hearing that there was a way to get rid of the curse, Yu Yue's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Speak."
Seeing his attitude, the Snake Light could not hide anymore.
"There is a way, but the success rate is not high. Furthermore, there is a huge danger." He looked at Yu Yue. "I know that once I tell you this method, you will definitely do it, but I hope that you will think about it carefully and not do something stupid on impulse."
Yu Yue looked at him and quietly waited for his next words.
Snake Light sighed and said, "The method to remove the curse of the devil origin, search my brain. There were indeed a few methods. However, the conditions of these methods are too harsh, and it is impossible to achieve them in a short period of time. The only feasible method I can think of... There is only one method... this method is related to the devil origin. Since it is a curse caused by the devil origin, then there is a possibility that the devil origin can remove it. As the saying goes, fighting poison with poison. But this is only theoretical reasoning, there are no possible examples... The success rate is minimal..."
Yu Yue gently placed Shangguan Zhitao's body on the ground and stood up. He looked at the calm black lake in the distance.
"The devil origin. Just now when Octo Neal entered the lake, he took out a drop of the devil origin. The devil origin should be hidden there."
