"Ah…" Su Luo's eyes were spinning, and she asked in her heart, this couldn’t be another affair of love, could it?
Nangong Liuyun couldn't help but sigh: "The Thorn's original leader has disappeared already, and the current leader is his Junior Sister. Originally, he and his Junior Sister were engaged, but then, he saw your mother…"
Su Luo was going blind from all of this contrived gossip.
"My mother definitely wouldn't incite him!" Su Luo defended her mother.
"Of course, your mother and my teacher…" Nangong Liuyun paused, and sighed faintly, "After just a single glimpse of Yan Hua, they were smitten for the rest of their lives. Isn’t there a saying that goes something like that? Your mother's existence in itself is a kind of incitement."
Su Luo: "…"
Nangong Liuyun patted Su Luo's hand. He'd also experienced that kind of pain of being unable to get what one most wanted before, so he could understand her, but he was still much luckier than those glorified ancestors.
Su Luo recollected herself: "So the problem now is that the Thorn's original leader, who liked my mother, has disappeared, and the current leader is his Junior Sister?"
Nangong Liuyun nodded.
Su Luo continued: "The Thorn's current leader bitterly hates my mother, and my mother left after kicking her butt, so now she has turned all her hatred on me?"
Nangong Liuyun helplessly nodded again.
Su Luo placed her hand to her forehead. What kind of sin had I committed! Having to carry a previous generation's worth of hatred even in the best of times, and that hatred could never be rid of by any means.
Willing to help but unable to, Nangong Liuyun could only pat Su Luo's slender shoulders in sympathy.
He knew very well how formidable the Thorn was. That Empress' true strength was unfathomable, and he was far from a match for her at his current strength.
Her existence strongly threatened Su Luo's life. For Nangong Liuyun, it was clear what he ought to do.
Nangong Liuyun's black Communication Amulet rang once again. This was their signal that they had to part ways.
Su Luo looked at him, reluctant to leave, and Nangong Liuyun embraced her, full of affection.
The two held each other tightly, almost squeezing the other's breath out of their lungs.
The Communication Amulet flashed urgently.
"Time for me to go." Nangong Liuyun rubbed her head.
"Mm." Su Luo replied, feeling depressed.
"Remember to think of me everyday." Nangong Liuyun delicately ordered.
"Ok." Su Luo bit her lip.
"Remember to watch out for yourself." Nangong gazed at her, "Just wait until……those matters are finished, then we'll never have to be separated again."
"Ok…" Su Luo grew even more reluctant to see him go.
Nangong Liuyun looked at the symbol on the Communication Amulet, those groups of small black dots were getting closer and closer, he couldn't let Su Luo be exposed right now. So, taking a deep breath, he resolutely pushed Su Luo away, and strode off!
Looking at Nangong Liuyun's handsome receding figure, Su Luo's eyes couldn’t help but become moist.
A long farewell, and a short reunion, not knowing when they would next see each other…
Thinking about the Thorn's leader, the Empress, Su Luo couldn't help but feel worried for Nangong Liuyun.
If it weren’t for Purgatory City, the Thorn could definitely be ranked number one on the continent. Although it was inferior to Purgatory City in many aspects, it wasn't by much.
Being hated by the Thorn's leader, Su Luo felt sad and helpless… Nangong Liuyun's supposed score to settle with the Thorn, it couldn't be to assassinate the Empress, right?
