C511 Celestial Plaza
"Xian'er, let me tell you a story. Do you want to hear it?" As he pondered, Zhang Fan felt an indescribable depression in his heart. He kept feeling that if he didn't say it, his heart would become even more depressed and uncomfortable.
Moreover, Xian`er was also the most important person to him, so perhaps he should say something to Ouyang Xian`er. After all, even after so many years had passed, he had never found out about Wang Yao's existence.
Moreover, in such an environment, the memories were indescribably clear. At this moment, it was as if they were still happening in front of his eyes. It was an unquestionable feeling, a truly unquestionable feeling.
At this moment, he had never believed in romance. However, at this moment, he finally understood. Moreover, when he recalled it, his heart trembled. That memory, it was something that he would never be able to forget.
"En!" Ouyang Xian'er lightly nodded his head.
"Haha …" Zhang Fan forced out a laugh, tightly hugging Ouyang Xian`er. After a long time, he slowly spoke. "The man is an assassin, a person who kills without batting an eye."
Slowly, Zhang Fan began to recount the story. His expression became even more blurry as he completely immersed himself in the memories of his previous life.
Ouyang Xian`er was an extremely important person to Zhang Fan. Now that he had revealed the most important matter in his heart, it meant that he didn't have anything important to say.
Ouyang Xian`er leaned into Zhang Fan as she quietly listened, but her eyes turned red. When Zhang Fan described how the girl had jumped off a cliff, her eyes reddened. When he told her about the man following her down the cliff, Ouyang Xian`er's heart trembled and her tears flowed down.
Zhang Fan recalled the details, and explained them in great detail.
After finishing his narration, Zhang Fan sighed and said, "Perhaps it was all due to that man. If it wasn't for his determination, there wouldn't have been such a thing."
Ouyang Xian`er remained silent, but her tears continued to fall.
Zhang Fan's eyes flickered, but his expression soon turned resolute. Turning his head to look at Ouyang Xian`er, he forced a smile as he replied, "And I am that person, that killer." As he spoke, a bitter expression appeared on his face.
Ouyang Xian`er's heart trembled as her tears fell faster. She herself was a meticulous girl, but from Zhang Fan's narration, she already understood something. This matter was hard for people to accept, but it was different for her.
Zhang Fan stared blankly for a moment. His face revealed a look of disbelief as he said, "How did you know?"
"After young master fainted and woke up, he shouted her name." At this moment, Ouyang Xian`er finally understood. She understood why her young master had awoken with a name that she didn't understand, and also why his personality had changed so much. She felt that her young master was always surrounded by loneliness.
However, at this very moment, both of her hands were hugging Zhang Fan's arm even more tightly, and her tears fell even faster. However, at this very moment, both of her hands were hugging Zhang Fan's arm even more tightly, and her tears were falling even faster.
"Haha …" Zhang Fan bitterly laughed at this moment.
"Young Master!" Ouyang Xian`er's tears fell faster, "Young Master will always be the young master that Xian`er likes. Moreover, you still have Xian`er."
"Hehe, silly lass." Zhang Fan laughed again, extending his hand to gently caress Ouyang Xian`er's hair. Honestly speaking, he hadn't expected Ouyang Xian`er to accept it so quickly.
"Wang Yao, do you think she'll come here?" Zhang Fan couldn't help but ask, as if he were asking Ouyang Xian`er or himself.
"Yes!" Ouyang Xian`er nodded her head emphatically. "Young Master, she must have come here as well. Moreover, you will still be able to find her …"
"Hur hur, maybe." Zhang Fan smiled again. Honestly speaking, his heart felt much better after he said it. He hugged Ouyang Xian`er and didn't say anything. His gaze was fixated on the extremely beautiful scene on the peak of the mountain.
As time passed, the skies grew darker and darker. At this moment, Zhang Fan pulled Ouyang Xian`er along as he headed back.
When they returned, neither of them spoke. Zhang Fan was still thinking about that figure, while Ouyang Xian`er didn't know how to comfort Zhang Fan. She only tightly held onto his arm and told him that she also had her.
After arriving at Ouyang Xian`er's room, he had accompanied her all the way until she had fallen asleep. However, just as he was about to leave, Ouyang Xian`er's hand suddenly tugged at his clothes.
Her expression became gentler as she bent down and kissed Ouyang Xian`er's white forehead. She leaned against the bed and became even more dazed as the image in her mind became deeper. Only after a long time did she enter a state of cultivation.
The next day, Zhang Fan also opened his eyes early. After opening his eyes, his gaze fell on the girl beside him. Seeing that she was still sleeping soundly, he did not disturb her.
At this moment, he had no way to deal with Wang Yao. Perhaps, they might really meet due to fate …
After a while, Ouyang Xian`er finally opened her eyes. When she saw Zhang Fan looking at her with a smile on his face, a contented and satisfied expression appeared on her face.
For the past few years, she had been dreaming every day, dreaming with her young master, but every time she woke up, it was only her who woke up. Every time she woke up, she was alone, every single time she came to the end, it was actually a dream, now it was the same, he was still afraid that it was a dream, but when he held Zhang Fan's arm, she knew that it wasn't, so she was satisfied.1
Even if she was a maid, being able to take care of her young master everyday was the same. Moreover, this was something she had always wanted.
"Wake up!" Zhang Fan's gentle voice appeared in her ears.
A pair of eyes that were as gentle as water, however, became slightly red when she looked at Zhang Fan. Finally, she gently leaned on Zhang Fan's arm and tightly hugged Zhang Fan. It was clear that she was once again reminded of what Zhang Fan had told her yesterday.
Zhang Fan smiled as if he understood something. He stretched out his hand and gently caressed Ouyang Xian`er's hair. There was a somewhat strange expression on his face.
Only after a long time did the two of them get off the bed. It was at this moment that Ouyang Xian`er found out that Zhang Fan had spent the entire night leaning against the bed because she saw that he was still wearing shoes.
His heart was moved, his eyes were red, and his small mouth moved but no words came out.
Zhang Fan smiled at this moment and took the shoes. He then helped her put them on, then pinched her blushing cheeks and took the initiative to take her hand and walk out.
Ouyang Xian`er snuggled up to him as he opened the door. That feeling was something he had longed for for for a very long time. At this moment, he was absolutely convinced that no matter how difficult the situation was, it would all be worth it.
It was a bit dark now, as if it was going to rain. What kind of weather would bring about what kind of mood? At this moment, Zhang Fan looked up at the overcast sky, and his eyes couldn't help but become a bit blurry again.
"Young Master, you'll definitely be able to find her," Ouyang Xian`er said firmly.
"Hehe." Zhang Fan laughed, and couldn't help but pinch her on the cheek once more. He then pulled Ouyang Xian`er's hand and they sat in the pavilion within the courtyard.
At this moment, the meticulous Ouyang Xian`er didn't mention those things again and instead changed the topic to talk to Zhang Fan. Actually, she was afraid that Zhang Fan would keep thinking about this matter, so she had her own thoughts.
Zhang Fan naturally felt it as well. His eyes were more or less filled with emotion. 'Xian`er is always thinking for my sake. Does she really think that I don't know anything about her?'
As time passed, two elders, including Li Sang, walked out and greeted them.
After half an hour had passed, the food delivery man from the Heavenly Monarch Sect also arrived. After setting down the food, he said directly, "After everyone finishes eating, I will take a few people to the square where the competition will be held."
Zhang Fan and the others nodded after hearing this.
After the meal, the group of people followed the Heavenly Monarch Sect disciples.
After exiting, many people could be seen walking in that direction.
At this moment, the ground was covered with exquisite stone slabs, because in this square, there were no buildings blocking the way. Although it gave off a very dangerous feeling, the scenery was indescribable, giving off an indescribably unique feeling. The surroundings were cliffs, and even the competition here was an unspeakable thrill.
As more and more people began to gather, not all of them were participating.
At this time, an old man walked out from within and stood outside the plaza. His deep and ancient voice also came out, "Today's competition will be the elimination round." With that, the old man began to explain the rules.
