Chapter 435 Chase
Chapter 435 Chase
After Lin Ruoxue left the Mo Gang sadly, it seemed as if the whole world had lost its color. She was filled with loss and confusion, like a lonely boat lost in the vast ocean, unable to find the direction to move forward, and unable to see the lighthouse of hope. There was endless sadness in her eyes, and her originally lively eyes became a little empty at this moment, as if a touch of bright color in her life was suddenly taken away, leaving only a grayness. She walked with heavy steps, and every step seemed to carry a heavy burden, as if the land of the Mo Gang was still holding her back, unwilling to let her leave, but she knew that she could not go back.
However, Bai Zixuan always stood firmly by her side, never leaving her, like a towering mountain, standing firmly beside Lin Ruoxue, giving her the most solid support. His eyes were full of determination, a persistent pursuit of justice, and a deep trust in Lin Ruoxue. He knew that although the world was vast, it was not easy to uncover the mystery of Lin Ruoxue's life in the heavy fog, just like groping in the dark to find a bright but hidden pearl, which was full of difficulties and unknowns. But the sense of justice in his heart was like a blazing fire, hot and unextinguishable, coupled with his sincere friendship with Lin Ruoxue, which drove him to resolutely embark on this road of exploration full of unknowns despite the difficulties and obstacles.
They traveled from one town to another, not missing any corner that might hold clues. Wherever they went, Bai Zixuan would always be the first to explore those places that might know the secrets of the martial arts world, or to visit those knowledgeable hermits. He would respectfully knock on the hermits' seemingly isolated wooden doors, and ask with a sincere smile: "Senior, I came here this time to inquire about some secrets of the martial arts world many years ago. I wonder if you have heard of them?"
Or he would carefully flip through the yellowed books, his eyes full of expectation, as if he could find the key clue to solve the mystery of Lin Ruoxue's life experience in the next moment. Each clue was like a glimmer of light in the darkness, although it was weak, it was enough for them to pursue it with hope, just like seeing the twinkling lights in the distance on the dark night road, which was the driving force that supported them to move forward.
However, Bai Zixuan's frequent appearances in the martial arts world and his purpose were gradually noticed by some people. After all, he was a little famous in the martial arts world. His elegant image and deeds of chivalry had long been spread in the martial arts world. His every move naturally could not escape the eyes of those who were good at prying into other people's privacy and trying to gain personal benefits from it. These people were like hungry wolves in the dark, always staring at their prey, and once they found an opportunity, they would pounce on it without hesitation.
Soon, Bai Zixuan's whereabouts for Lin Ruoxue attracted the attention of some people in the martial arts world. These people had their own ulterior motives and different thoughts. Some of them had always had a grudge against the Mo Gang and had always wanted to find an opportunity to suppress people related to the Mo Gang. They secretly thought in their hearts: "Humph, this Lin Ruoxue has left the Mo Gang, so we can take this opportunity to cause more trouble for the Mo Gang and let them know the consequences of offending us."
Some of them coveted the secrets that Lin Ruoxue might hide. With greed in their eyes, they thought, "Lin Ruoxue's life experience is a mystery. Maybe she is hiding some big secret. If I can master this secret, I might be able to gain unexpected benefits in the martial arts world. Then I can dominate the world."
Others simply cannot bear to see others doing well, their hearts are filled with jealousy and resentment, they just want to create some trouble for Bai Zixuan and Lin Ruoxue, to laugh at their misfortunes, they gloat behind their backs and say: "Humph, let's see how long Bai Zixuan and Lin Ruoxue can be so proud, we have to trip them up and let them have a taste of pain."
As a result, the pursuit followed Bai Zixuan and Lin Ruoxue like a shadow.
One day, the two of them walked to a remote valley. The valley was eerily quiet, and the surrounding mountains towered into the clouds, shrouding the valley in shadow. Only the sound of the wind whistled in their ears, and the sound was like the howling of ghosts and wolves, rustling the trees in the valley, as if it was an ominous omen.
Lin Ruoxue couldn't help but frown slightly, her beautiful face showing a hint of worry at the moment. She whispered to Bai Zixuan: "Zixuan, the atmosphere here is a little wrong, we'd better be careful. Look around here, it's so gloomy, I always feel like there is some danger approaching quietly." As she spoke, she subconsciously tightened the bag in her hand, which contained her few belongings, but at the moment it seemed to be her only support.
Bai Zixuan nodded, and his expression became solemn, like a dark cloud covering his originally sunny and handsome face. He clenched the sword in his hand, and the lines on the hilt hurt his palm a little, but he didn't feel it at all. He said solemnly: "Ruoxue, don't worry, I will never let you get hurt. Even if it's a sea of fire and a mountain of swords, I will protect you. Just follow behind me, and if there is any movement, tell me immediately." His eyes were extremely firm, as if at this moment, he was the most powerful shield in the world, able to resist all invading enemies.
Having said that, danger is imminent.
