C6742 Lonely
The boundless darkness instantly surged into his mind.
In the midst of the haziness, Lu Yu felt as if he was being held by a warm and soft arm, and a faint fragrance wafted through his nose.
Lu Yu suddenly woke up. There was already some light outside, and although the sun had yet to rise, it gave the cave some light.
Only then did Lu Yu notice that he had been lying in Bai Suqing's embrace all this time, and had unknowingly fallen asleep.
He was really too tired. He had already used up all of his mana and physical strength in the battle with the Heavenly State experts. He had luckily escaped from the hands of those Heavenly State Evil Ghosts, and now he was fighting with these wild beasts and Evil Ghosts, causing Lu Yu's body and mind to be exhausted.
Last night, he had fought with the Horned Evil Ghosts in close combat and fought with all his might. His body had been covered with countless wounds, and his mental strength, which he had forcefully held on to, had finally reached its limit. He could no longer hold on, and fainted.
This sleep lasted for several hours until the sun rose.
"You woke up!"
Bai Suqing's sleep was very shallow, and she had been accompanying Lu Yu all this time. Suddenly, she felt the movement in her arms, and her eyelashes trembled slightly, revealing a look of pleasant surprise on her face.
Lu Yu shook his head. He stood up and breathed in and out, circulating the Cultivation Methods. Finally, the physical strength in his body gradually stabilized.
Suddenly, Lu Yu sensed that there were countless white strips wrapped around his body, and the green medicinal dregs were faintly seeping out of the cloth, completely covering his wounds.
"I'm sorry, I don't know how to bandage, so I did it a bit carelessly." Bai Suqing said somewhat anxiously.
Her face revealed some embarrassment. Her previous memories and experience had all been affected. As the beloved daughter of the Bai Family, Bai Suqing was living a life of luxury, and would never give anyone the chance to bandage her wounds.
The current Bai Suqing was only wearing a small gown. That gown was obviously torn off by her and bandaged for Lu Yu.
"It's fine. This wound will recover in a while." Lu Yu waved his hand.
Bai Suqing's face was slightly red. This was the first time she had taken care of someone, and she did not expect this result.
The two of them fell into a short silence. However, Bai Suqing clearly spoke more, "The wound on my leg has healed, is it also because of you?"
Lu Yu nodded. "The evil ghost that was chasing after you was killed by me."
This voice was like a thunderclap, causing Bai Suqing's heart to be shocked.
At that time, she was corroded by Yin Qi in the cave, and was in extreme pain. However, in the end, the wound suddenly disappeared, allowing Bai Suqing to regain a trace of clarity. When Bai Suqing could stand up on her own, she discovered that Lu Yu had rushed in from outside the cave, covered in blood.
Bai Suqing was extremely intelligent, so she naturally knew that Lu Yu had experienced a great battle outside. At that time, she was extremely afraid and worried that Lu Yu would die because of her. But now that Lu Yu had recovered, Bai Suqing was immediately overjoyed.
"Thank you..."
Bai Suqing bit her lips and looked at Lu Yu. "Actually, you don't need to treat me like this. You only have one life, and to you, it is extremely important."
"Back then, you also saved my life. If you did not help me when I was in danger, even if I lived, my heart would not be at ease." Lu Yu shook his head.
Back then, in the Lower Realm.
The Demon Ancestor had struck out with a shocking blow, and it was almost enough to kill Lu Yu. However, Bai Suqing and Ji Chenyu had intervened and blocked that terrifying blow for Lu Yu.
This was a great favor, and Lu Yu could not possibly not repay it. It was easy to live, but it would be even more difficult to live with a conscience.
Bai Suqing shook her head. "Sorry, I really don't remember."
She looked at Lu Yu and said with incomparable melancholy, "Aunt brought me to the Bai Family. From my memories, I was the Langya County Princess of the Great Zhou. Many people were respectful to me, living luxuriously, and servants formed a group. They had carriages and horses to accompany them, as if they had lived in a dream."
"However, this kind of life made me feel empty and uneasy. I always felt as if I had lost some memories. I went to look for Aunt, but Aunt didn't know what I had experienced in the past. I was saved by His Majesty, but His Majesty was in Mount Qi, far from where I could see him."
Bai Suqing seemed to have fallen into endless grief. She closed her eyes. "I don't know who my parents are, but in my memories, there is always a blurry memory. It was an ordinary small house, and my father was holding me, and my mother was cooking. However, that scene was warm and strange. I clearly knew that it was someone extremely important to me, but I could not remember anything."1
Lu Yu listened quietly, and he suddenly let out a long sigh in his heart.
In the past, Bai Suqing, who was in the lower realm, was filled with endless sadness and loneliness. Now, even though she had lost her memories, this loneliness still accompanied her.
"Your father is an extraordinary figure," Lu Yu suddenly said.
This sentence was like a stone that broke the sky, causing Bai Suqing's beautiful eyes to suddenly widen. She looked at Lu Yu in a daze, wanting to obtain information from him.
However, Lu Yu shook his head and said, "Your father is no longer in this world …"
He told Bai Suqing about the matter of Demon Sealing Daolord.
This was Lu Yu's most important friend in his previous life. In the cultivation world, there were countless fellow daoists, but there were not many who could be called true friends.
Demon Sealing was a very stubborn person. He had once suffered from a strong curse, and his family was destroyed. His life was miserable, but he did not give up on himself. Instead, he trained hard and sealed all the devils under the heavens.
He was a loner, and he met the Netherworld Daolord on the road of life. The two of them appreciated each other and became friends. After that, in the great battle of the ancient demon, Demon Sealing and Netherworld participated in the battle as the main force of the Heaven Realm.
Bai Suqing gradually let out a soft sob. This was the first time she had heard news of her family since she had memories.
Lu Yu understood this feeling very well. In his previous life, he was an orphan. Even after he eventually became the Netherworld Daolord, he had still failed to find his relatives. In the end, he was lonely in his body. In this life, he had experienced the warmth of his family, so he naturally understood how torturous it was to be lonely.
She comforted Bai Suqing and gradually calmed her down. However, perhaps Lu Yu himself did not know that his figure had already occupied the warm picture in Bai Suqing's mind.
No one knew that the dignified County Lord Lang Ya actually had a cold and desolate heart. Now, Lu Yu was like a solid harbor, allowing Bai Suqing, who had always been homeless, to find a place to rest.
Bai Suqing bit her red lips. She could feel the complicated emotions in her heart, and this feeling made her panic.
She quickly shook her head. "Let's go. Let's leave this place as soon as possible."
"Is your leg alright?" Lu Yu asked.
"It's fine now." Bai Suqing bit her lips and stood up, walking towards the door.
When Lu Yu saw Bai Suqing's back, he let out a long sigh. He also stood up and followed Bai Suqing out.
