Chapter 68 Shangguan Ruotong's determination
When Shangguan Ruolin woke up from a daze, she felt like sleeping comfortably on the warm kang in Sister Song's home. She felt an indescribable sense of comfort from head to toe.
She rubbed her eyes, sat up, looked down and saw that she was neatly dressed, and the image of being naked in Shu Han's arms in her memory was like a dream.
Thinking of that scene, Shangguan Ruolin couldn't help but blush with embarrassment, and a strange emotion rippled in her heart. She was ashamed to recall it, but she couldn't help but think about it over and over again.
By this time, the blizzard had dissipated, the top of the snowy mountaintop was empty and silent, and the eastern skyline lit up with a touch of fish belly white.
In the dim light of dawn, Shangguan Ruolin looked around, eagerly searching for Shu Han's figure.
She saw Shu Han walking towards the exhausted thousand-year-old snow lotus. The snow lotus was helpless, as if the snowstorm last night had exhausted all its energy.
Shu Han walked up to the snow lotus, grabbed its roots and uprooted it.
In an instant, dawn broke in the east, and the first ray of sunlight shone on the top of the snowy mountaintop. It was as bright as heaven on earth.
After Shu Han put the thousand-year-old snow lotus into his storage bag, he slumped down on the spot as if exhausted, staring blankly at the sunrise in the east.
Shangguan Ruolin walked over, and Shu Han turned to look at her with a tired smile.
"Have you got the Millennium Snow Lotus?"
Shu Han nodded.
Shangguan Ruolin was so confused at the moment that she didn't know how to continue answering the conversation, so she turned around and said, "Let's go then. People in Zhangzhuang may be worried about where we have gone for several days."
Suddenly, her little hand was grabbed by Shu Han, who pulled her over and sat down next to him. Shu Han let out a long sigh, looked at the sun rising in the east with a satisfied smile, and said, "Senior, it's rare that both of us survived. Please stay here with me for a while."
Shangguan Ruolin didn't refute, she leaned against Shu Han quietly and watched the sunrise with Shu Han with her face flushed.
Sitting on the top of Daxue Mountain, you can see the brilliance of the sunrise filling the world little by little, coupled with the reflection of the surrounding white snow, it is definitely a beautiful scenery. However, the more beautiful the sunrise was, the faster Shangguan Ruolin's heart beat and the more at a loss what to do.
Shu Han suddenly said: "I haven't watched the sunrise like this for a long time."
Shangguan Ruolin was speechless, and Shu Han thought to himself: "I have been worshiping a sect called Longxuanmen since I was a child, and have lived in the shadow of the sect leader for five years. Every morning, I will practice in front of the sunrise. The skills of magic and martial arts have never stopped in five years, because at that time, I knew that I would face a life-and-death battle, and if I could survive one more day, I would earn more points."
"After I came to Dayun, I gradually forgot this feeling. I felt that the sea was so vast that fish could leap, and the sky was so high that birds could fly. However, I later discovered that Dayun, the sky and the earth, were just another larger Longxuanmen. Just like last night, we almost died in that snowstorm.”
Suddenly, Shu Han laughed.
"Senior, don't tell me. In fact, I also know that fighting for the towering creation liquid in the future will definitely be a dangerous situation with a narrow escape. I hope that after that incident, the two of us can break through the deadlock like this morning and watch the sunrise together again."
Shangguan Ruolin turned her head and stared at Shu Han's smiling face. Suddenly her restless heartbeat stopped. Somehow, her confused and worried heart was soothed this morning.
Shangguan Ruolin nodded: "It's a deal."
…………
At the same time, at the Golden Silkworm Association Chongxiao City General Meeting.
Shangguan Ruotong was talking with the president of the Jincan Society, a late-stage alchemy monk, and Taoist Jincan. Analyze the information about Shu Han and Shangguan Ruolin collected by the Golden Silkworm Society from various places.
Suddenly, the tea cup in Shangguan Ruotong's hand was crushed with great force. A few blushes appeared on Shangguan Ruotong's pretty face. His mood suddenly became strangely agitated, but after a while he returned to the rare calmness.
Seeing the sudden change in Shangguan Ruotong's face, Jin Can Taoist couldn't help asking: "Miss Shangguan, what's wrong with you?"
Shangguan Ruotong waved to him quickly and rushed out of the living room. He leaned against the corner and took a few deep breaths to calm down his sudden mood swings. After her mood calmed down, she once again recalled the sudden surge of emotions just now, and looked into the distance with doubtful eyes.
"Sister, what are you feeling...I have lived with you for eight hundred years, and this is the first time I feel this wonderful emotion from your heart..."
She lowered her head and smiled softly, carefully recalling the fluctuations in her mood just now.
"Haha, I understand. Sister, have you forgotten, we sisters are not worthy of having this kind of relationship." Shangguan Ruotong couldn't help but look at the black mark on his right wrist, and said with a smile: "You are like this. Sister, I feel sorry for you... It’s best for you to die in the north of the cloud and not go back.”
After gathering his emotions, Shangguan Ruotong returned to the meeting hall again.
"Taoist Jincan, I have doubled the reward and paid you a huge amount of spiritual stones. Why is there still no definite news about those two people? Is this how your Golden Canker Association does business?"
"I request that we send twice as many people immediately to find the whereabouts of these two people in the North of Great Cloud!"
Taoist Jincan smiled bitterly and said: "Miss Shangguan, let alone sending twice as many people, even if we allocate the current manpower, our Jincan Association is already unable to do what we can. To be honest with you, Miss, in the north of the Great Cloud, the Wu Guo Festival is held once every twenty years. The world is about to open. The towering creation liquid produced in it has been targeted by various sects. We, the Golden Silkworm Association, have to gather materials to prepare for the Wushu Realm. We really don’t have enough manpower. "
The Immaculate Realm? Towering creation liquid!
Shangguan Ruotong thought for a moment and suddenly smiled and said: "I understand why you came to the north of the great cloud. It turns out it is for this. Sister, your ambition is really not small."
Taoist Jincan was confused by Shangguan Ruotong's words.
Then Shangguan Ruotong said: "In that case, I don't need to trouble you anymore to send people to search. You, the Golden Silkworm Association, should also accept the reward I issued. In exchange, you will give me a place to go to the Immortal Realm."
"ah!?"
Taoist Jincan said in surprise: "The Golden Elixir monks of the Wushou Realm can't go, the plane will collapse!"
"It doesn't matter! Since I'm going, I will naturally suppress the cultivation realm, and I won't compete with you for the towering creation fluid. And maybe I can help you, the Golden Silkworm Society, in the Immaculate Realm."
Taoist Jincan's eyes rolled in circles, and he hurriedly poured tea for Shangguan Ruotong and said, "I'll explain something to you first. The Immortal Realm is dangerous, and entering it cannot guarantee your safety."
Shangguan Ruotong snorted coldly: "She dares to go even if she doesn't have any cultivation. Why don't I dare!"
ha?
Taoist Jincan continued: "In case... I say just in case, if something unexpected happens to the young lady in the Wushou Realm, Senior Tianmo..."
Shangguan Ruotong interrupted and said, "No, everything has nothing to do with your Golden Silkworm Association, and I can't blame you."
