Ye Ling couldn't remember how much time had passed after the storm, he only knew that when he came back to his original body and lied down next to Holy Maiden, the sky seemed to have brightened up.
Ye Ling's eyelids twitched as he looked through the curtains into the room. Finally, he opened his eyes and looked at the messy surroundings and the naked Holy Maiden in his arms.
He looked at the alarm clock on the bed. It was already one o'clock in the afternoon.
Her skin was as white as snow, yet like flawless congealed jade, as if she was an otherworldly existence, she quietly lay on her side in Ye Ling's embrace, the pain on her face was gone, as if she was asleep. In the midst of comforting others, there was still a faint curve to her lips, causing Ye Ling to stare blankly at her for a long time before coming back to his senses.
"I have to say, other than the fact that people often talk about killing people, she is also a woman that can't be picky about anything."
"System, what is the current situation of Holy Maiden?"
In the bathroom, Ye Ling asked the System in his mind while taking a shower.
The situation has basically stabilized. Because of the aid of the host's consciousness, the Demon Saber's consciousness has already returned to the blade, and will not have any chance to harm Holy Maiden in the future. On the contrary, Holy Maiden will be able to fully unleash the full strength of the Demon Saber Village under her conscious state.
Hearing that, Ye Ling curled his lips in an unsatisfied manner and said: "It's also a recognition of master. Why is it that when the Demon Saber Village fully recognizes that little bitch, they can display their full strength and Xuanyuan sword can't even display a tenth of their full strength in my hands?"
"Humph!"
Even if you were to fully unleash your power, it would not be able to burden that little miss in the least. Furthermore, currently, my power is still too strong for you, so if you were to erupt with it, I'm afraid that you would not be able to endure it for even a moment, and my creator had clearly considered that point, which is why he sealed me with a secret technique while he was forging, and required sufficient amount of inner strength in order to gradually undo the seal. "
"One day, when you can completely bear the burden of my full power exploding out, you will naturally be able to fully release my power. Of course, when you are in an extremely dangerous situation, you can also have a chance to fully release your power. However, if you do so, it is very likely that you will not be able to survive."
Hearing Xuanyuan sword say this, Ye Ling could not help but feel a little depressed.
It was as if he had obtained a treasure box, which contained an incalculable amount of gold coins and treasures, but because he was too weak to pry open the chains wrapped around the treasure box, he was unable to pry out the treasure box even though the treasure was within reach.
However, the only thing worth comforting was that Holy Maiden had basically escaped from danger. Now, all she had to do was wait for her to awaken. This way, the mission could be successfully completed.
After showering, Ye Ling put on his clothes and walked out of the bedroom. When he arrived at the living room, he was stunned.
On the sofa in the living room, a delicate figure was curled up. She was wrapped in a thin towel, as if she had waited an entire night.
Only then did Ye Ling suddenly remember that because of Holy Maiden's incident yesterday, he told her Han Jing had hung up the whole night. Ye Ling suddenly remembered that because of Holy Maiden's matter, he told her Han Jing had hung up the whole night.
Unexpectedly, the moment Ye Ling touched her, Han Jing became sensitive and her delicate body trembled. She opened her eyes and met Ye Ling's gaze.
"I'm sorry, Jingjing, I …"
"It's nothing, Young Master Ye. There's no need to explain …"
Han Jing shook her head, revealing a smile. However, Ye Ling was unable to let out a breath of relief.
Although he still said those kind words, in comparison to finishing his words, Han Jing's smile was extremely forced. Even his eyes had turned slightly red when he spoke.
"I'll get dressed."
As Han Jing said this, she stood up from the sofa and ran into the room. As she closed the door, tears welled up in her eyes, like an unstoppable flood.
After a long while, Ye Ling saw Han Jing walk out of the room. She had already changed into the clothes from last night, but compared to last night, there was not a trace of vitality left.
The two of them stood face to face, neither of them speaking.
Although Ye Ling was an experienced romantic, this was still his first time experiencing such a situation.
"Jingjing, are you alright?"
After a while, Ye Ling asked while moving his lips.
"I'm fine, I'm sorry, Young Master Ye, I made you worry."0
Han Jing revealed a smile and looked at Ye Ling. "Oh right, Young Master Ye, Jing Jing isn't feeling well. She might not be able to work normally for the next two days. Can I take a leave of absence from you?"
"Alright."
Ye Ling nodded. "Have a good rest. You can come back after you've recovered."
"Yes, thank you, Young Master Ye."
Han Jing nodded and then ran to the exit to open the door. She turned around and waved goodbye to Ye Ling before closing the door and leaving the presidential suite.
In the elevator, two lines of tears fell from the corners of Han Jing's eyes. She said in a low, choked voice, "Perhaps we won't meet again in the future …"
"Yeah, how could an ordinary girl like me be worthy of Young Master Ye? "Seriously, Han Jing, you're thinking too much."
Han Jing didn't care if Ye Ling had any other women, nor did she care about how much of her position Ye Ling belonged to. Thus, she was very considerate and didn't want to put any pressure on Ye Ling.
However, in the end, she was still a girl. Everything that happened yesterday was like trampling on her dignity, injuring her to the point of not being able to finish her off. It was even more so like humiliating her, as if he was telling her that she wasn't worthy.
Even though all of this was not Ye Ling's own intention.
Inside the presidential suite, the entire suite fell into silence as he watched Han Jing leave. Ye Ling didn't react for a long time as he frowned. He felt empty inside, as if he was about to lose his life.
"Do you want to apologize?"
Ye Ling thought in his heart and was extremely conflicted.
