Translator: RITF_Rain Editor: Chrissy

"In my heart, you are the most beautiful woman!" Ye Xiao panicked. "Stop talking. Just take some rest. Spirit up. We have plenty of time to stay together…"

"No…" Jun Yinglian weakly said, "I have so many words. I have to ask you… If I don't… I… Cough... Cough… I don't want to die with all the questions in my heart…"

"Fine… Fine…" Ye Xiao was sweating. "Go ahead. Just cut the unimportant ones. Let me lead your energy flow first… Your situation…"

"Am I… really… beautiful?" Jun Yinglian looked worse and worse.

"Yes!"

"Why… Why do you like me?"

"I… You… It's…" Ye Xiao stammered, "Do… Do I need a reason to like you?"

"Do you love me?" Jun Yinglian looked pushing in the eyes.

"Well…" Ye Xiao felt it difficult to say the word. It was difficult to f a man to say love.

"Don't push yourself. You don't love me…" Jun Yinglian sadly spoke, "You just pity me… Cough cough cough… Cough cough…"

That was another series of a powerless cough.

"I love you! I love you so much!" Ye Xiao hurriedly fixed it up, "I love you so so so so so much…"

"Then you…"

…

Jun Yinglian had been so weak as if she would pass away at any second. However, she just kept hanging on the edge between life and death, weakly asking questions for three hours.

In the three hours, Ye Xiao had spoken all the sweet words in the world!

More than once!

He had made lots of promises, whether he could fulfill them or not. He decided to make her feel satisfied first.

He was like cutting out his heart to her… Under such circumstance, he had entirely given up the male privilege, the dignity of a man along the powerless coughs… He totally forgot about it in the end…

That was how a lot of unfair deals were made between them.

"In fact, I have been waiting for you to find me… I have been waiting for so long… too long…" Tears flowed down from Jun Yinglian's eyes, "I have been waiting for you… to say you like me, you love me, that you will marry me…"

"I keep waiting until just now…" Jun Yinglian looked at the sky, "How many years? Ye Xiao?"

"Well…" Ye Xiao was wordless.

Three hours endearment marathon was breaking him down.

He was a rookie in the game of love after all.

'Do you love me?' 'How much do you love me?' 'How much do you like me?' 'Do you…'

Questions that were similar to these had been asked and answered again and again… for countless times…

In the end…

Jun Yinglian seemed to pass out again, and it was finally ended.

Ye Xiao had just taken a breath of relief. When he was going to check on Jun Yinglian again and see if it was possible to cure her, he suddenly lost sight and passed out…

Ye Xiao was merely a cultivator who had just reached level one of Dao Origin Stage. He had been pouring out the energy of East-rising Purple Qi. The long-lasting output of his energy had consumed too much of himself. He had been forcing himself to do it because he was afraid Jun Yinglian would die if he didn't. During the process, he had to answer all those stupid love questions. It indeed had consumed his heart, body, cultivation, patience, endurance… Anyway, it used him all up. When he tried to relieve, he naturally passed out. It was lucky he was still alive!

Jun Yinglian was terrified. She hurriedly held Ye Xiao's body and tapped on his wrist to check his impulse. She kept condemning herself in her mind. [He is no longer Xiao Monarch after all. He is merely in level one of Dao Origin Stage. After pouring out his own energy to support me for such a long time, he might die if he didn't hold a breath of power to maintain his breath. He must be exhausted at the moment. That's why he passed out. Luckily, it is not severe damage. He will be fine after resting for some time.]

Jun Yinglian made sure everything was fine with Ye Xiao, and then she was suddenly lost. She didn't know what to do next…

She had played such a fictitious scene just to hear the true words of Ye Xiao's heart but turned out to exhaust him so bad. Luckily he was fine. If he died because of this, her heart would be torn into pieces. As she thought of such a possibility, she was utterly anxious and embarrassed.

Hurriedly, she continued the treatment on Ye Xiao…

…

After a long time, Ye Xiao slowly woke up from unconsciousness.

When he was sober, he found that he was holding nothing.

That was such a fright! He thrust up immediately!

"Lian Lian!"

Ye Xiao shouted.

There was no response. It was silent. Jun Yinglian had long gone, leaving no trace behind.

[Where is Lian Lian?]

Thinking about how weak and powerless Jun Yinglian was, he felt heartbroken. [Why couldn't I hang on for a longer time? How could I pass out? How could I not set her well first? What happened after that? She is not in danger, is she?]

He jumped up to a tree and shouted, "Lian Lian… Lian Lian…"

No response. Only the sound of the wind blowing the trees howled. There was no sign of the lady.

He was anxious.

He felt something wrong about it, but he couldn't tell what it was. He jumped off the tree sullenly.

He had never lost the heart of a peak level Dao Origin Stage cultivator. He understood anxiety wouldn't help, so he tried to concentrate.

He was merely level one of Dao Origin Stage, but deep in his heart, he was still Xiao Monarch. He calmed down and started to think of all the details. After a while, he figured out what was wrong.

If Jun Yinglian truly had her energy flows spread in chaos, she should have been gone after no longer than one or two hours. However, she had stayed in the dying status for over four hours. During the several hours of the love quiz, she seemed weak and powerless when breathing, but it was quite a long breath of hers. Usually, a person with disordered energy flows could never do that.

Moreover, he had used some supreme dan beads and East-rising Purple Qi on her at the same time. Even though it wouldn't completely cure her, it should at least make her feel better. How come she didn't feel anything?

The only explanation was that Jun Yinglian had been fooling him around by fading a dying status. As he thought about it now, he realized only as powerful as Jun Yinglian, one could make every act look so real. Even Ye Xiao, an expert disguiser was tricked. Although Ye Xiao was panicking at that moment, Jun Yinglian had done a great job in the play after all!

Ye Xiao had figured out the truth, so he stopped worrying that Jun Yinglian might die. The only thing he cared about now was where she went. He looked around and found that there were writings on the floor… in the position where he held Jun Yinglian.

Ye Xiao was moved. He hurriedly went over and read it. As he was reading it, he started to smile bitterly. He made a big sigh and said, "Oh woman… Typical woman!"

He shook the head, couldn't stop sighing. He almost died because of regret and remorse.

[That was such a careless mistake.]

This was the only thought in his head.
