——–
The capital.
The lights along the river were reflected on the water, creating enchanting shadows and lights.
On both sides, shops and stalls were bustling with activity as people came and went, offering a variety of items including delicacies, handicrafts, and toys.
In the middle of the bridge, people stood tall, admiring the riverside scenery.
The bridge was packed with colorful lanterns that bathed the crowd in hues that made their smiles even brighter.
Jiang Hao and Heavenly Note Sect strolled onto the bridge.
The crowd subconsciously made way, though they did not know why they did so.
But the two of them were unaffected by the crowd.
At that moment, Heavenly Note Sect turned to Jiang Hao and said coldly,
“You mean that I am very cold?”
Hearing this, Jiang Hao shook his head,
“My senior jokes, what I meant was that the senior is not conversational.”
Laughing lightly, Heavenly Note Sect commented meaningfully,
“Not conversational?”
Jiang Hao nodded but did not respond.
Heavenly Note Sect didn't say much more, just looked at Jiang Hao.
Under the pressure, Jiang Hao had no choice but to meet her gaze.
Moonlight and lamplight blended together, falling on Heavenly Note Sect's face.
It shone brightly.
Her red and white dress appeared even more vibrant.
Like the center of color, it enhanced the dazzling light around her.
“Then don't you think my heart is cold too?” Heavenly Note Sect suddenly asked.
Jiang Hao snapped back to reality and shook his head, “It shouldn't be.”
“Why?” Heavenly Note Sect inquired.
“Perhaps it's because of the red dress, it doesn't seem cold,” said Jiang Hao, his eyes on the dress.
Hearing this, Heavenly Note Sect chuckled softly,
“Could it be because your heart is warm that you feel this way?”
Jiang Hao was stunned and didn't reply.
He felt that his heart wasn't warm, just that there were things he didn't do and some things he did if convenient.
It had just turned out this way.
By this time, they had crossed the bridge, where there were noticeably fewer people.
“Does senior want to release a lantern? I remember we did it before,” Jiang Hao said.
Heavenly Note Sect looked down the road and nodded nonchalantly.
Jiang Hao bought a lantern from a roadside vendor and handed one to Heavenly Note Sect.
Taking the lantern, Heavenly Note Sect was silent for a long time before saying, “I once asked you if you often daydreamed while we were releasing lanterns, do you remember what you answered me?”
Jiang Hao was surprised and then shook his head, “I don't quite remember.”
But now he did indeed come to the city to daydream.
“You said the street was crowded, and you were thinking how to safely get me through the crowd,” Heavenly Note Sect looked at the person beside her and smiled, “Is that the truth or a lie?”
Jiang Hao nodded, “Of course, it's the truth.”
Heavenly Note Sect gazed at the person in front of her and said, “Back then, it was a lie, but now coming from you, it unexpectedly has become the truth.”
Jiang Hao did not pick up the thread but walked towards the riverside.
There, one could go down closer to the water.
As for the truth or falsehood, considering how he now thought, it was hard to say what he might have thought then.
“Is it naive?” Jiang Hao asked curiously as they approached the river.
“This?” Heavenly Note Sect lifted the lantern and inquired.
“Yes,” Jiang Hao nodded.
“Just a custom,” Heavenly Note Sect replied casually.
“Back then, the senior also thought it was naive,” Jiang Hao spoke.
At this, Heavenly Note Sect frowned.
A chill arose.
Jiang Hao subconsciously sensed his back, anticipating a wall.
However, Heavenly Note Sect just glanced at him once and stepped down by the riverside, lowering the lantern she held.
Jiang Hao did the same.
The lanterns floated down the river.
Heavenly Note Sect watched the lantern flowing with the waves and asked, “Can this lantern also be used for offering prayers and making wishes?”
“Hmm,” Jiang Hao nodded, “the merchants have said so.”
“Has your wish changed?” Heavenly Note Sect asked.
“You still remember, huh,” Jiang Hao exclaimed softly.
Back then, he said he wanted to live well.
At that time, living under the shadow of Heavenly Note Sect, he was safe but always at risk.
Life and death were not in his own hands.
Two hundred years later, today, he found that his mental state had changed.
Completely unlike back then.
He still wanted to live, but not under the shadow of Heavenly Note Sect.
Although she was still stronger than him, at least he could now look up and see her.
And…
A lot had happened in between, and through these events, one could gradually get to know a person.
It could also change a person.
He had changed, and so had the people around him.
Jiang Hao looked at the woman beside him, who even in the darkness was still dazzling, and said, “What about senior? Did you make a wish back then?”
“No,” Heavenly Note Sect looked at the flowing river and said blandly:
“The river god is no match for me.”
“And now?” Jiang Hao asked again.
Heavenly Note Sect still shook her head, “No.”
Then she looked at the man beside her and said, “I do have a wish, but I don't need to seek help from the river god or the heavens.”
Jiang Hao, surprised, then asked,
“What is senior's wish?”
Heavenly Note Sect turned her gaze back to the lantern floating on the river and said, “To witness the moment the Seven Forms of Heavenly Blade were created.”
Hearing this, Jiang Hao's heartbeat seemed to stop for a moment.
His gaze fell on the lantern, not addressing the question.
But in his heart, there was already an answer.
In this world, perhaps only he himself could represent the moment the Moon-Slaying saber technique was born.
Taking a deep breath, he calmly said, “This time, I did not make a wish, having the protection of my senior is already safe enough.”
A gentle breeze blew.
It fluttered Heavenly Note Sect's hair and her dress.
Her skirt was blown by the wind, touching Jiang Hao's clothes.
The wind was somewhat strong.
But both remained still, watching the night colors in the river.
Suddenly, a burst of firelight appeared in the plaza on the other side, blooming like a steel tree.
Both turned their heads to look, a clear, pleasant sound of hammering followed by a burst of sparkling fireworks, brilliant beyond compare.
