Chapter 29 : The Unexpected Reunion

Liu Xiao was stunned while looking at the man before him. His face was still as handsome as before but it matured so much, his long dark brown hair smoothly going down his waist, his body was so well-built and is now taller than him and the black and red robe suits him than the usual light blue robe he's wearing when he was at the Mount Hua Peak.

Wu Qingge's red eyes was gazing with anxiety as he looked at him and his lips pursed, he didn't dare to say a word or explain to him. Liu Xiao didn't know whether to greet the man before him or faint and pretend to be dead but he chose neither of the options and started to run away.

Wu Qingge called and grabbed his wrist. Liu Xiao's eyed was shut tightly as he groaned with pain by Wu Qingge's grasp. Seeng Liu Xiao in pain, Wu Qingge immediately loosened his hand that was grabbing Liu Xiao's arm and opened his mouth to speak but Liu Xiao turned away and started to run again.

Wu Wingge pleaded, grabbing Liu Xiao's arm to stop him from running. Liu Xiao didn't dare to turn around and look him in the eye but his body was in halt and he didn't tried to speak. Wu Qingge muttered, his deep voice became lower and lower as he tried to explain while his hand that was grabbing Liu Xiao was trembling.

Even if Wu Qingge was muttering, it was loud enough for Liu Xiao to hear it. Liu Xiao opened his trembling lips and spoke, he didn't really know what to say or what to feel right now. Mixed emotions were running through all of his body and he feels so dizzy just by thinking about it. Liu Xiao bit his lips to say something that makes sense but in the end it was the shitiest thing he ever said.

Both of them kept quiet. Liu Xiao shut his eyes tightly then clenched his fist and silently cursed himself inside his mind. Of all the things you could say to the protagonist, you say you're gonna fart?! The fuck Feng Xi—i mean Liu Xiao! Where is your brain! Where is the IQ of the modern era?! Did it rot while you stayed in this ancient world full of cultivation?! Choke yourself right now and die! v(;´༎ຶД༎ຶ')v

Liu Xiao couldn't take it anymore and charged spiritual qi in his feet then leap high in the sky. He let out a sigh of relief until his waist was roughly grabbed by someone and fell straight on top of the roof. Liu Xiao didn't felt pain nor stinging in his body because a pair of arms in his back and in his head was supporting him, he looked up and see Wu Qingge on top of him, looking at him with woeful eyes and his both hands that was holding him were slightly trembling.

Wu Qingge pleaded again and rested his head on Liu Xiao's shoulder, their bodies pressed together on the cold tiles of the roof. Liu Xiao became flustered and aggressively stood up, his face flushed red and his heartbeat thumping loudly.

Wha—What the hell is wrong with me? What was that? What is this? Am i crazy? Did i became bent... No, no, this is just because i'm nervous! Yeah right! This is my nervous state it's nothing weird!

He glanced at Wu Qingge who was just staring at him from the back with puppy eyes. His face became sour thinking that his demonic aura and looks didn't suit that puppy eyes of his and immediately looked away. He sighed thinking that even if he ran away, Wu Qingge would catch up to him since he is the almighty demom king, the peerless protagonist of the story. Liu Xiao calmed himself by inhaling and exhaling repeatedly before asking him,

Wu Wingge's gloomy expression brightened up a bit and answered,

Liu Xiao paused for a bit and turned his head to look at him, his eyes frowning and looking worried. he asked.

Wu Qingge was taken aback and he answered Liu Xiao with his the usual gentle smile he always wear infront of him. Liu Xiao, seeing Wu Qingge showed out the nostalgic gentle smile on his face that he always saw when they were traveling together, he couldn't help but cry. Tears started falling down from his eyes and his cheeks and nose slowly became swollen red.

His lips and body were trembling while he pointed at Wu Qingge and spoke, he couldn't continue his words anymore and started sobbing and wailing like a newborn child.

He remembered all the times when he was angry at Wu Qingge for leaving him without explanation and the time when he knew that Wu Qingge became bent. He didn't want to think of it anymore and started doing closed door cultivation to ease his mind and stop himself from thinking of anything for four years. And now seeing Wu Qingge infront of him, his anger and resentment suddenly melted as he cried like a child uncontrollably.

Liu Xiao's intentions to be friends with him in the first place was only to survive but seeing Wu Qingge became gentle with him and always fun to be with, the thoughts in his mind that Wu Qingge will kill him, slice him into pieces and choke him to death gradually disappeared.

Him stopping Wu Qingge from entering the underworld gate was pure intentions. He knew that once Wu Qingge entered the underwold, negative thoughts and pure demonic aura will haunt him until he lose his sanity and abandon his humanity someday. He couldn't bear seeing Wu Qingge coming out of the underworld gate then killing people like bugs and not feeling emotions like in the original novel, just imagining it makes his chest ache so much.

Wu Qingge was stunned seeing Liu Xiao crying infront of him, it's was a beautiful sight to behold. He saw Liu Xiao cried when he was about to enter the gate but seeing it again after five years and the only one seeing it is him, his hand unconsciously went to caress Liu Xiao's face, his thumb gently wiping Liu Xiao's tears and lightly brushing on his swollen cheeks.

His other hand fixed the excess strand of Liu Xiao's hair that was covering his face and swept it to the back of his ear. He pulled Liu Xiao's frail and weakened body in his embrace and muttered a few words,

Liu Xiao yelled while punching Wu Qingge's chest. Wu Qingge took all of his hits but it neither took any damage nor didn't hurt at all, rather it was ticklish like a pillow banging on a sturdy wall. All of a sudden, Liu Xiao started crying again. Wu Qingge could only stroke his back and repeatedly apologize while letting him cry.

After all of the crying, Liu Xiao was about to fall asleep when he roughly stood up, wiping his snot and taking out four papers inside his dimension ring. He infused spiritual qi and spoke with a weak and hoarse voice, he released the papers from his palms and it swiftly leap away above the sky.

When he came to his senses, he immediately slapped himself and bit his lip. He regreted crying like a spoiled brat earlier and much worse—infront of Wu Qingge! He would accept it if it was his Master but he's a man older than him! His Senior! He wished that he could faint right now and not wake up but his body only felt weak and his voice became hoarse from all the yelling and crying.

He glanced at Wu Qingge who was just staring at him, his elegant black and red robe was filled with wet tears and snot from Liu Xiao's crying earlier. Liu Xiao demanded, trying to calm himself and to look unbothered.

Wu Qingge didn't say anything, he raised his hand to reach out to Liu Qingge but Liu Qingge backed away and shook his head. Liu Xiao said, his eyes tightly shut and his palm went to stroke his head. Liu Xiao fixed the crumples on the hem of his robe and sat at the edge of the roof one meter away from Wu Qingge.

Wu Qingge spoke while he tried to move closer to Liu Xiao but Liu Xiao moved away, his eyebrows frowning and looking away from him.

Wu Qingge said in a low voice. Liu Xiao turned his head to him, raising his eyebrows and his lips pursed. he asked Wu Qingge, losing his patience and his face becoming mad and mad.

Wu Qingge reached his hand out again and Liu Xiao lightly slapped it, he then spoke in a voice full of authority,

Wu Qingge withdrew his hand, gulped and opened his mouth to speak, Liu Xiao frowned as he listen to Wu Qingge he pondered for a bit and replied,

Wu Qingge simply shook his head.

Liu Xiao slowly understood what he said. It's like if you are just brawns and no brains, nothing will change and strength alone is not the answer. If you attack the enemies with your strength alone and didn't properly think of a plan, the tables might turn and you'll lose in a way you don't expect. It's like a giant monster thinkinf that he can conquer the world full of smart creatures.

Liu Xiao asked. Wu Qingge answered.

Liu Xiao tilted his head in confusion and remembered something so he asked,

Wu Qingge bluntly answered.

Oh my god, he really killed him to take over the underworld... But what is it that they were finding? From the think of it, it should be an important item from the novel, or a hidden item that was not revealed in the novel. Since i wasn't able to read the book two, three or maybe more of the novel, i don't have any idea on what's about to happen.

Liu Xiao hesitated for a bit but still continued,

Wu Qingge was stunned for a bit and gradually let out a gentle smile. he asked, his one hand reaching out to him.

Liu Xiao immediately answered, also reaching his hand to Wu Qingge and they both stood up, their palms gently pressed to each other.

Our Wu Qingge with long hair hehehehehehehehe Σ>―(〃°ω°〃)♡→
