Chapter 378 The Master Who Killed His Disciples to Prove His Dao 44
In the inner courtyard, the swing swayed gently in the wind. Xue Yi sat on it, her white clothes fluttering, like a fairy.
Jili stood behind her, gently pushing the swing. His long hair had grown back and was now tied into a crown. He had a handsome face and gentle eyes.
The figures of the two people intertwined in the sunlight, which shone through the treetops. The mottled light and shadows cast on the two people, adding a bit of dreamy color.
At first glance, both of them were smiling, and there was sweet affection between them.
Standing here from afar and spying on their happy warmth felt like a thorn in my throat, and every step I took felt heavy.
He seemed to understand the feeling of loneliness on their wedding day.
Xueyi had already noticed Wen Jue's arrival.
But Jili has been particularly considerate recently, which has made her very happy. She pretended not to know anything. As the owner of the courtyard, Jili set up the barrier himself, so how could he not know that someone had broken in?
But the man had no way to stop it.
He just wanted Wen Jue to see, clearly see, that he and Shen Xueyi were the most perfect match in the world.
Even if he took advantage of the situation and took her home with her amnesia, it still couldn't change the fact that they loved each other.
How can a latecomer compete with him?
He is the one who has truly known her for ten years, lived together for seven years, accompanied her for a year, and been in love with her for half a year. In this world, no one is closer to her than him.
Wen Jue means nothing.
For the first time, there was a hint of complacency between the man's eyes and brows, which were always elegant and refined.
Wen Jue walked towards the two of them with red eyes. He held Xue Yi's hand tightly and said in a trembling voice, "Come back with me."
Xueyi raised her head, a complex emotion flashed in her eyes. She gently broke free from Wen Jue's hand, her voice calm and firm: "Wen Jue, I remember everything."
Wen Jue stood there in a daze, his heart aching.
"I remember... What about me? Have you forgotten our three years together?"
"I've waited for three years, Shen Xueyi, three years!"
Not three days, not three months, but three full years.
He respected her, took care of her, gave her the highest courtesy and welcomed her home to be his concubine.
"You are my wife."
Xue Yi stood beside Ji Li. The two of them seemed to blend into the fairyland-like place around them. In contrast, Wen Jue, dressed in black and red, looked even more out of place.
She lowered her eyes and thought for a long time, then suddenly said, "I want to go back to find my master."
"No."
"No."
Xue Yi knew something was going to happen when she heard this. She pretended to be sad and reluctant, "Even if he cut open my elixir with his own hands, I believe he had his reasons. Master, you are the best person in the world to me..."
Ji Li panicked, twisted her shoulders, and interrupted loudly: "He is nothing!"
"Xuan Qi has known you for ten years, and so have I. He killed you on the trial stand himself. How can you go back to him?!"
Wen Jue and Ji Li were surprisingly in agreement on this point. "If you want to go back to find him, I'd rather you stay with Ji Li. What kind of person is such a heartless person who can kill his disciple who has been with him for seven years?"
"He is still called the leader of the righteous path. How can he be the number one in cultivation?"
"Wen Fuling once loved him, but after learning that he had split your elixir with his own hands, she wanted to rush to the cultivation world and cut him into pieces. Such a person is not worthy of your continued love."
"The matter between you and Xuan Qi should be left to Yunyan."
Xue Yi showed hesitation, as if she was still ready to make a move, "But... Master didn't do it on purpose, he just... practiced the ruthless way, so he couldn't help himself..."
"He has true feelings for me."
Wen Jue laughed angrily, "Really?"
"True love means beating you with whips nine hundred times? True love means piercing your dantian with a sword and crushing your golden elixir? Or does true love mean that he will risk the whole world's disapproval to use you to cure the poison?"
"Don't be silly. Three years ago, everyone thought you were dead. When I found you, I thought it was a gift from God. God knew that I loved you and gave me a chance."
"But, I took care of you for three years, and in the end, you remembered him and wanted to go back to him? I tell you, it's impossible!"
"You are my Wen Jue's legally married wife. We have gone through the three letters and six ceremonies to announce to the world that you are my wife. If you want to go find Xuan Qi, I must die."
Wen Jue summoned the chain and clapped his palms, and it automatically wrapped around Xue Yi's body.
Her limbs were bound by golden chains, restricting her movements and preventing her from going beyond a certain range.
Rarely, Jili did not stop it.
