Chapter 354 Rejection or confession?
"Wow—" He breathed a long breath. Ji Dong slowly opened his eyes, and his black eyes were regained, even deeper than before.
In just seven days, his body had completely recovered. Of course, this was not just because of his own strength. What was more important was Chen Sixuan's help.
Chen Sixuan's Yimu magic power greatly nourished his body. In addition, after the two souls merged, Ji Dong's control of magic power when breaking through the blockage of meridians was made more subtle and exquisite, which greatly advanced his recovery time.
At this time, Ji Dong not only recovered his body and cultivation, but also made great progress. The powerful pressure brought by the three-legged golden crow undoubtedly stimulated his own potential one step closer. During the fusion of his soul with Chen Sixuan, Ji Dong's soul vortex also surged. Whether it was magic or mental power, it had significantly improved in just seven days.
Chen Sixuan has gained a lot. Although her magic power has not improved much, the benefits she gained in her soul are greater than Ji Dong. Although she was reborn by the flames, her mental power after rebirth can only be limited to what Princess Xuan originally had. I don’t know how much stronger Ji Dong’s soul is than her. After this fusion, Ji Dong’s soul was indeed stimulated and improved, while Chen Sixuan got even greater help. The power of the soul was almost doubled.
"Okay. The meridians have finally been opened." Feeling the huge magic power that was about to emerge from Ji Dong's body, Chen Sixuan was even more excited than him.
"Thank you." Ji Dong sat cross-legged, and Chen Sixuan was behind him with his soul and magic. But he did not turn around at this time, but cut off the soul connection between himself and Chen Sixuan.
"Teacher Ji Dong, what's wrong with you?" Chen Sixuan was slightly stunned. The disconnection of soul connection made her heart suddenly filled with loss.
Ji shook his head and said, "I'm nothing, Chen Sixuan, can you tell me why you like me? When you first met me, you couldn't know that I had such cultivation. At that time, I was just a drunkard. But you were the princess of the Dongmu Empire, known as the world's number one beauty. Before the age of twenty, your magic power had already exceeded level 60, and it was even better than me. I don't understand why you like me like this."
Chen Sixuan smiled slightly, took the initiative to walk to Ji Zhen, and sat opposite him. Her big dark green eyes stared at Ji Dong's eyes, and the gentle brilliance was revealed without any concealment in her eyes. At this moment, what she thought of in her heart was all about her past with Ji Zhen. How much she wanted to tell him that I am your flame! But she couldn't say it, in order not to let him destroy both body and spirit, she couldn't say it. However, that deep love was emitted without any reservation.
Ji Dong subconsciously closed his eyes. At this time, he was afraid to look at Chen Sixuan. He really didn't understand why Princess Xuan had such deep emotions towards him. This was not supposed to appear at all.
"Teacher Ji Dong, you don't need to understand. Even if you fall in love at first sight, is it okay? People are destined to be together. Perhaps, we had already formed this fate in our previous life. When I saw you, we would not extricate ourselves from falling in love with you. Even if you treat me as a ignorant, it doesn't matter. Anyway, you will belong to me in my life. Even if you don't want me, I will not let you go. We will always be by your side."
When Ji Dong opened his eyes again, his eyes had become a little colder. This indifference was not something he forced to pretend, but it was real cold. Because the moment he closed his eyes, what appeared in his mind was a scene before Lie Yan died. He used the feeling of heartache and unable to breathe, and drove everything about Chen Sixuan out of the edge of his inner world.
Seeing the change in Ji Dong's eyes, Chen Sixuan was also slightly stunned. She didn't understand why Ji Dong was still doing well before, but such a big change occurred at this moment.
Ji Dong spoke, his voice was very calm, but it was this calm that made Chen Sixuan's heart shrink.
"Chen Sixuan, I am very grateful for your help to me when facing the Three-legged Golden Crow this time. You are a very excellent girl. The world's number one beauty is not a fame. You not only have an outstanding face, excellent talent, but also have a kind heart. All of this can attract most men. But, I want to tell you that I am an exception. It is absolutely impossible between us. There is no possibility. I think you should have felt it when you merge with my soul. In my heart, there is already a woman.
.Apart from her, I can no longer hold anyone in my heart. I love her, she is the only one in my heart. Even if she is dead, no one can replace her in my heart. There was no before, and there will be no future. I will only belong to her for the rest of my life, and I will be loyal to you forever. Don’t waste time on me, and there will be no result. If you don’t want to be hurt, just give up the thoughts in your heart now. If this is the case, maybe we can still be friends."
Chen Sixuan's heart and body were trembling, not because of disappointment and pain, but because of the love that rose to the extreme. How could Ji Dong know that when he rejected the Princess Xuan in front of him, he was actually confessing his love to her. His flames were simply in front of him! His firm and hard rejection not only could not dispel Chen Sixuan's love for him, but instead ignited this love to the extreme.
Chen Sixuan said in a trembling voice: "Since she is dead, why can't you give me a chance and also a chance for yourself? If she could see you now, she would definitely not want you to suffer so much pain. She would definitely hope that someone can take care of you and accompany you on her behalf and let you live a happy and happy life."
Ji Dong smiled, and it was a hint of proud and loving smile, "You are right. If my Fiery could see me now, she would definitely think so. But, how her thoughts did not represent my behavior. Of course, she hoped that I would be happy, but only when I was with her can I be truly happy. She died and I was still alive. Do you know why?"
Chen Sixuan didn't say anything, but just looked at Ji Dong silently.
Ji Dong's emotions suddenly became aroused, and his voice increased significantly, "Because I want to fulfill my unfinished wish for her. When her wish is fulfilled, I will go to find her after all. No matter where she is, I will go to find her and accompany her."
"But she is dead." Tears kept sliding down from Chen Sixuan's face like a broken pearl. She once again saw the endless sadness and loneliness in Ji Dong's eyes, and also saw his deep affection and longing for herself. She really wanted to pounce into his arms!
"After death, I will turn into a ghost to find her." Ji Dong's voice suddenly subsided and his expression became dull again. This plain sentence was like a heavy hammer, hitting Chen Sixuan hard in the heart.
Ji Dong, Ji Dong, I..., I...
Chen Sixuan suddenly fell to the ground and was crying. Even she herself didn't know what kind of emotions she was now. It was not until this moment that she truly understood how difficult the evil god and her bet were.
"I will find an opportunity to return your help to me this time. I have already said it very clearly. Please don't disturb me again in the future."
As he spoke, Ji Dong had already walked out of the cave, standing outside the cave, looking at the mountain devastated by the volcanic eruption. He didn't want to hurt Chen Sixuan, but it was better to have a short pain than long pain. In his opinion, rejecting her directly is definitely good to her. How could he know that the reason why Chen Sixuan cried was not because of pain, but was moved.
Chen Sixuan's crying became louder and louder, as if she wanted to release all the sadness in her heart at this moment. A faint feeling of unbearance flashed in Ji Dong's eyes. But he did not turn around to comfort her. When he thought that this time, he would solve the problem completely and save trouble in the future. Looking at the sky that had returned to normal, he kept muttering Lieyan's name in his heart.
As time passed, the crying sounds in the cave gradually faded until they disappeared completely. Ji Dong was still standing at the entrance of the cave, and he was waiting for Chen Sixuan to come out.
Finally, Chen Sixuan walked out of the cave, her eyes were red, and there were even a few crystal tears on her white cheeks, which looked even more adorable. She walked silently behind Ji Dong, looking at his lonely figure, her eyes couldn't help but become a little confused. Ji Dong, no matter what the price he paid, I will definitely make you fall in love with me now. I must be with you again.
"It's time for us to go back to the academy." Ji Dong said calmly.
"No, I can't go back now. Teacher Ji Dong, have you forgotten the purpose of facing the three-legged golden crow this time?" Ji Dong was slightly stunned and slowly turned around. Seeing Chen Sixuan's pear blossoms with rain, he couldn't help but look away slightly. He had to admit that the Dongmu Saint Princess Xuan in front of him was extremely attractive to him, not just because she also had a perfect face. What Ji Dong irresistible was the feeling of the two's souls fusion. The soul contact of water** was like a fusion. If it weren't for Ji Dong's willpower, he would have been unable to extricate himself.
"The three-legged golden crow has exploded and died. What can we do if we have a purpose?"
Chen Sixuan shook her head, her fingers flicked, and a little dark red light kept shooting out from her hands and landing in front of Ji Dong. They were pieces of dark red metals. They seemed to have lost their vitality, quietly landing on the ground and making a clanging sound. Each piece of metal was broken in an out-of-sight, but they still seemed to exude a proud aura. It was Ji Dong's fragment of the Divine Fire Holy King Armor.
"Have you picked them up?" Ji Dong looked at Chen Sixuan in surprise.
Chen Sixuan nodded silently, "I found a total of 352 pieces of fragments. Then I searched for self-study four or five times. No other discoveries should be missing. Teacher Ji Dong, your armor will not be melted by magma, you should be useful."
Shocked, Ji Dong's heart was filled with shock at this moment. How difficult was it to find metal fragments in the crater after the volcano eruption? What kind of power does she, a girl under twenty, support her to accomplish all this? The Eternal Armor can only barely protect her body from being invaded by the magma heat, but it can still have a huge impact on her. Even Ji Dong herself may not have the confidence to retrieve every piece of the divine fire holy king armor, but she did it. And her expression was like she did something insignificant.
Ji Dong's heart tightened violently, and in his heart, a strong heartache was irresistible. This girl did so much for him, but she hurt him just now. The condemnation in her heart made Ji Dong silent.
These fragments are of course useful to Ji Dong. As long as they are there, with the creativity of the Chaos Fire in the Chaos Pearl, it doesn't take long to refine them in his body through the fusion of magic. Facing Chen Sixuan, he had no idea what he should say.
He merged the fragments on the ground into his body piece by piece, and fused the magic technique to quickly retract the fragments of the Divine Fire Holy King Armor. Ji Dong's lips were pursed tightly. He knew that he owed this girl a lot. He had to repay this love, otherwise, even if he helped Lieyan fulfill all his wishes, he would not be able to find her calmly.
Chen Sixuan stood aside and silently watched Ji Dong take back the Divine Fire Holy King Armor. Her expression had returned to tranquility, and even a faint smile was on her pretty face.
Ji Dong apologized for herself, but her heart was filled with endless love at this moment. Ji Dong's rejection was actually the best confession to her. She was Chen Sixuan and Lieyan. How could she be angry with him?
Seeing Ji Dong withdraw all the fragments of the armor, Chen Sixuan raised his right hand. Suddenly, Ji Dong felt that his side became hot in an instant. Then, a dazzling golden light had already lit up on Chen Sixuan's right hand.
When Ji Dong saw the golden color on Chen Sixuan's hand, his eyes suddenly solidified. It was a golden sphere. The dazzling golden light condensed into a golden light film around it. The strong heat caused the temperature around them to rise sharply. The spiritual golden light seemed to be about to break free from Chen Sixuan's hand, and the high heat it brought had already made Chen Sixuan's face look painful.
"Hold it, Teacher Ji Dong." Chen Sixuan quickly handed over the golden light ball in her hand, and Ji Dong subconsciously stretched out his hands to take it.
