Chapter 241, Part 1: The Past
These past two days, whenever she thought about this possibility, she felt an inexplicable sense of guilt.
It shouldn't be like this.
No one is a substitute for anyone else.
Forgetting was her mistake, and she must face it.
Looking at the upset Xuan Li, Feng Siyue suddenly didn't know how to comfort her. The amount of news tonight was too much for her!
She felt she might need to consider how the two of them could avoid retaliation if Senior Red Moon discovered they had been tricked.
“Ah Li, although we haven’t known each other for long, I feel that there should be someone who knows everything.”
Xuan Li looked up. "You mean, Ancestor Xuan?"
"Ah."
“Ah Li, as your brother, he may have been hiding some things, but he definitely did it for your own good.”
"If past emotions are too painful, forgetting is a good option."
Xuan Li quietly fiddled with the purse at her waist, and after thinking for a long time, she murmured softly, "Brother, when we meet again, will you tell me everything?"
After that night, Feng Siyue noticed that Xuan Li was becoming quieter and quieter. Whenever she stopped cultivating, she would see Xuan Li sitting alone at the table, staring at the portrait in a daze.
Sometimes it's a red jade pendant, but more often it's a portrait.
Feng Siyue couldn't bear to see her so downcast, but she also knew that time was the only solace for both the past and the present.
All the struggles and reluctance will find their answers in time.
Sure enough, half a month later, Xuan Li seemed to have returned to his carefree life, happily eating, sleeping, reading sketchbooks, and painting portraits every day.
She seemed to have finally broken free from her sadness and hesitation, and was radiant again.
While Qingqing and Ali were out, Shenya returned from looking for food, and Feng Siyue called out to her, "Senior Shenya, I have something I want to talk to you about."
"what?"
Shenya landed on the wooden table and asked her.
Who was Ali's former lover?
Feng Siyue felt that there were some things she needed to understand in order to avoid misunderstandings in the future.
"I can tell you this, but you can't tell her."
Shen Ya didn't intend to hide it from Feng Siyue; she was going to return to that place anyway, it was just a matter of time.
They will inevitably learn about what happened back then.
“Feng Siyue, you may sometimes find it strange that Ah Liming can form contracts with and summon spirit beasts, and protect himself in various special ways, even though he doesn’t know how to cultivate.”
“I can tell you that Ali and the place you are going to are inextricably linked, but she has simply forgotten it.”
"forgotten?"
Is Ali from Yanxu?
That ancestor...
“Yes, Ali is, but Xuanzu is not.”
Shen Ya seemed to know what she was going to say, and her voice was unusually calm, "Feng Siyue, I don't know what choice Ali will make after her memories are restored, but I don't really want her to remember those unhappy past events, and I don't want her to go back."
"I don't care what mission that stinky bird was carrying, but memories will always come back eventually."
"I hope that if you know about her past beforehand, you won't believe anything she says that tells you to leave. You should stay firmly by her side."
She would never have said it if it weren't for their relationship.
Feng Siyue didn't understand. "Don't believe it? What do you mean?"
What exactly happened in Ali's past?
Shen Ya said, "Ah Li, actually, doesn't have the surname Xuan."
"From birth, she was a child who grew up in love. She was bright and kind. Although she had a wicked sense of humor and was always up to something, there was no denying that she was like a little sun."
"You can see that too."
Feng Siyue nodded. "Yes."
"But in that era, people killed each other to survive, and death was always a possibility."
"The ancient times were filled with ferocious beasts and frequent wars. It was an era fraught with danger, far from the peace we enjoy today."
"The mythical beast is very strong, but there, it's just an ant that others can crush at will."
Shen Ya's calm words left a heavy blow to Feng Siyue's heart!
Her heart was in turmoil!
Mythical beasts are like ants? Is Yanxu really that dangerous?
“Ali was lucky. She met a very kind person when she was born and was well protected in that cannibalistic world.”
"My biggest daily worries are probably what to eat, what to wear, and where to go tomorrow?"
"This kind of life went on for many years."
"Ah Li was also unfortunate, falling in love with someone she couldn't love."
Feng Siyue understood.
"Is it the person you met at the beginning?"
This relationship is unusual.
"good."
Feng Siyue boldly guessed, "Could it be that that person has someone they love, and that person abandoned Ali?"
"Do not."
Shen Ya's tone was somewhat heavy, "There was no third party involved; on the contrary, they loved each other."
Feng Siyue's mind was a little confused. "It's a good thing that they love each other, so why did Ali lose her memory in the end?"
Whether in reality or in stories, being in love is a very beautiful thing.
Shen Ya continued,
"Nobody knew the situation at the time."
"The fact that Ali has remained so innocent despite being protected by him for so many years is enough to prove how capable he is."
"After the mainland stabilized, I suddenly fell into a deep sleep."
