Chapter 682 Strange Nightmare
The sky gradually darkened, and there was still only the occasional rustling of bamboo leaves when the breeze blew by in the bamboo forest, and the rest was silence.

After listening to the story carefully and quietly, Chang Ting lowered his eyes, stroking the ends of her hair with his warm and powerful hands, and his expression was calm, as if he hadn't been affected in the slightest.

Yixue waited patiently for a while, seeing that Changting was still silent, she couldn't help but said indifferently: "Brother Changting, doesn't he have anything to say?"

Xie Changting shook his head lightly, and said, "If this story is true, then it must not be all of it."

Yixue was silent, "Why does brother Changting think so?"

"Xue'er." Xie Changting seemed to have something more in his voice, but even he himself was not sure how he felt at the moment, "Is this story true, or is it just someone who told you it before?" The myths and legends? There has never been a similar record in all the books about the ancient heavenly palace in the world. Even everything related to the heavenly court has only been handed down in the form of legends. Since ancient times, no one has dared to be sure. It really exists."

Yixue didn't give any explanation, and didn't try to refute him, she just said lightly: "The story is true, after Nine Heavens Profound Girl accepted the conditions of the Emperor of Heaven, the Emperor of Heaven ordered to erase all memories related to that disaster in the world, and banned it from now on. The gods in the sky intervene in human affairs without authorization. Therefore, it is normal that there is no record in the book, because no one remembers what happened 3000 years ago."

"How is the Nine Heavens Xuannv in this story?"

Yixue said: "Not dead yet."

Xie Changting was stunned for a moment, then chuckled, "Xue'er, you should know what I mean by asking."

Yixue was silent when she heard the words, she naturally knew that what he really wanted to know was whether this story had anything to do with them?Is Jiutian Xuannv staying in Jiutian Palace now, or is she somewhere?

Yixue reached out and picked a bamboo leaf and put it in her little hand to play with. She was not afraid of serious consequences if she accidentally touched the mechanism. I have to break the casserole and ask the end...why don't you just think that Nine Heavens Profound Girl is me?"

Xie Changting said: "Xue'er, although Changting is an ordinary person, the reputation of amazing talent and beauty is not just flattering words of others, there is always a bit more wisdom than ordinary people."

After the words fell, Yixue suddenly fell silent.

Xie Changting raised his eyes slowly, as if the time to listen to the story passed faster, and in a blink of an eye, he had already stayed from Chenshi to dusk.

It was still sunny in the morning when they came in, but the sky was already dark with dark clouds, and after a while, the sky would be dark, and the road here would be more difficult to walk, so they had to go out earlier.

However, Yixue raised her lips slightly, "What's so strange about Brother Changting? Or, why do you think this isn't the whole story?"

Xie Changting didn't answer immediately, a trace of long-lost and rare confusion flashed across his eyes, as well as his understanding and speculation after learning the approximate origin of the matter.

After a long silence, he said in a calm but somewhat tense tone: "I left Dongli when I was 16 years old, and I only went back to Dongli twice in 11 years. Although I secretly controlled the Dongli court, But when it comes to returning home, I always resist.”

After his amazing appearance in the arena, he disappeared. Outsiders speculated, but no one knew his whereabouts. Those who knew the inside story thought that he was imprisoned for his freedom because he challenged Cang Hao and suffered repeated defeats.

In fact, this is the real reason, but only half the reason.

When he suddenly said something that seemed irrelevant, Yixue raised her eyes and said puzzledly: "Why?"

"Before the age of 16, every night when the moon was full, I would have a bizarre dream." Xie Changting's mouth twitched, as if he thought it was funny, but the deep hurt in his eyes made him unable to laugh even if he wanted to. .

Night of the full moon?

After Yixue was stunned, her face instantly turned pale, she slowly lowered her head, and said in a difficult tone: "What kind of... a bizarre dream?"

Xie Changting glanced at her indifferently, and said calmly: "I dreamed that I killed a young woman in white with my own hands, and then... my heart ached like a twist."

Closing his brows and eyes, he let out a sigh as light as catkins, "It's really heartache, so painful that I can't breathe. I often wake up in cold sweat in the middle of the night. The picture in my dream is so real that it makes me uneasy, like a gangrene of the tarsal bone. Lingering."

Yixue's lips trembled, and there was no trace of blood on her pale face.

"Little Xueer." Xie Changting smiled faintly, "If the story you just told is true, then the story must not be finished...Of course, if you are just telling an imaginary fairy tale, then, if you As you said, if you and I are really a destined couple, what is our story like?"

"Nine Heavens Xuannv no longer exists." Xue'er stopped talking in a low voice.

Xie Changting was startled, "What did you say?"

"I said, Nine Heavens Xuannv has abandoned her divine book." Yixue smiled faintly, "Brother Changting wants to know everything? Xue'er can tell you everything - but, I want to know, what do you think?" What Xue'er just told is not the whole story, or a story that has nothing to do with us... You haven't told me, what is the reason for you to be so sure?"

Xie Changting said with a faint smile: "Your address to me, your tone of voice, and the look in your eyes...all these tell me that this story is far from being so simple."

If she is really the Nine Heavens Xuannv who came down to earth with her memories, even if she is now in the body of a three-year-old child, it is impossible for her to call a mortal "Brother Changting" so naturally. Naturally, this kind of alienation is not aimed at anyone, but a habit formed by 900 years of practice, and it may be difficult to change for a while.

And the shame and hurt flashed across her eyes, it is absolutely impossible to feel owed just because of a momentary mistake that caused wars in the world and Luan Tian's early death.

After a pause, he added slowly, "Of course, if this is indeed the whole story, then it probably has nothing to do with the two of us."

"...You're right, Brother Changting." Maybe it was because she was tired, or maybe she was feeling uncomfortable, Yixue's small body gently leaned against Changting's arms, she closed her eyes, and a crystal teardrop slowly fell from the corner of her eyes, "This is just the beginning of a story, and it is far from the whole story."
