Splendid Twins

Si Yao walked slowly to the front, looking at the direction where Gou Huan left, and said in a cold voice:

"Lu Yuan, no matter what you do, I will accompany you."

Everything he had done for her was beyond ordinary. In this era where power and fame were intertwined, he was like sailing against the current. Everything he had fought for her, even the lofty position of national teacher, must have been achieved with unknown pressure and questioning.

Lu Yuan, you have built a high platform for me, so I... will never let you suffer any injustice again!

Gou Huan...

Xiao Huan...

Si Yao narrowed her eyes slightly, and the traces of spiritual energy flowing out of her fingertips floated forward silently...

Hearing this, Lu Yuan gently took Si Yao's hand, his eyes became deep and calm, and he said softly:

"In the past, I was defeated and he got the upper hand, but today, the outcome is still uncertain. And all this is thanks to my... fiancée..."

Lu Yuan spoke the last three words with deep affection. He slowly leaned over and put his ear close to Si Yao's. His deep and magnetic voice accompanied by a warm breath made Si Yao involuntarily tilt her head slightly, and a blush appeared on her cheeks.

She pursed her lips and said angrily, "Be serious. Also, don't forget my wall."

Lu Yuan's lips curled up into a faint smile, his eyes flashing with a doting light:

"That's natural. I'll fix it for you myself."

When Si Yao heard this, a hint of surprise and curiosity flashed in her eyes: "You also have such skills?"

Lu Yuan raised his eyebrows: "When I first arrived in the army, I was a fireman. I made stoves with mud every day. It only took a few days for me to practice my skills..."

Si Yao listened quietly, but ripples appeared in her heart.

She said nothing, but the bitterness in her eyes was hard to conceal!

The pain of having one's soul sucked out is an indescribable torture that goes deep into one's bones...

It is not just limited to the skin, but penetrates into every nerve, as if an invisible blade is cutting deep into the soul, and every breath is accompanied by tearing pain!

As for Lu Yuan, Gou Huan had used strange magic to seal his five senses. When he woke up again, his behavior revealed an indescribable madness.

This is not a sudden change that happened overnight, but the sequelae of the main consciousness going through unimaginable struggle and tearing during the period of being sealed, and finally being forcibly stripped away!

How did he survive back then?

Lu Yuan seemed to sense something, and he took the person into his arms, slightly bent over, and spoke slowly:

"Yaoyao," his voice was low and full of affection, as if every word carried the weight of the past.

"If I hadn't gone through those hardships, I might never have met you. Sometimes, I am really grateful for the twists and turns in fate, because they let me meet you, which is the greatest luck in my life!"

Having said that, he relaxed slightly, looked directly at her, and said in a hoarse voice:

"Yaoyao, let's get married. I can't wait any longer..."

Si Yao raised her eyes, remained silent for a moment, and then raised the corner of her mouth: "Okay, then it's as you wish."

Hearing her agreement, Lu Yuan was delighted from the bottom of his heart, smiling, and turned around to walk back. Si Yao was a little confused:

"Where?"

"Have someone measure your size and prepare the wedding attire..."

……

Gou Huan struggled to support his broken body and staggered back to the imperial mausoleum step by step.

Although he tried his best to resist in the fierce fight with Lu Yuan, he was ultimately outmatched and his body was covered in wounds. On the way back, the sudden sneak attack made things even worse for him!

"Oh, she really protects her own shortcomings!"

Gou Huan smiled bitterly in his heart. The only person in this world who could hurt his consciousness was Si Yao!

Finally, he could no longer hold on, his body went limp, and he stumbled and fell at the cold and solemn entrance of the imperial mausoleum.

The air around him seemed to freeze, with only his heavy breathing echoing in the emptiness.

Gou Huan gritted his teeth, forcibly mobilized the remaining spiritual power in his body, took a deep breath, and began to meditate...

He tried to recover a little bit of strength through practice, but his injuries were too severe. Even after practicing for a whole cycle, he could only barely maintain a little consciousness and his body was still weak.

"Wow!"

A mouthful of blood suddenly spurted out of his mouth, staining his clothes red and highlighting his pale face.

He lowered his head, bent over and held his stomach, with cold sweat on his temples. The severe pain almost made him faint...

"Ha, ha, is this day coming?"

When he went against the will of heaven again and again, he was prepared to be retaliated against.

However, when this moment finally came, it was far beyond his expectations. The pain made him gasp and his face twisted...

Hiss, the pain goes deep into my bones!!!

He raised his eyes with great effort, and slowly scanned the silent imperial mausoleum. Every towering tomb carried cold memories...

Maybe when a person is about to die, he actually recalls the past...

He was granted the title of prince when he was born, and was extremely noble. His elder brother was even named the crown prince. At that time, he was in the limelight, like the moon surrounded by stars, and no one could match him!

However, fate is always full of variables.

When he was five years old, he suddenly discovered that he could glimpse the dark spirits that ordinary people could not reach!

A group of ghosts with rotten faces and hideous shapes wandered silently around the palace under the cover of night.

The prince was terrified by those unspeakable things and lost his composure in public. The royal dignity and peace suddenly collapsed in that instant!

My father spared no expense in searching for talented people all over the world. Unfortunately, those who were respected as masters not only failed to demonstrate their ability to exorcise ghosts, but instead turned their spearheads against innocent me!

He declared publicly that he, the loyal king, was the reincarnation of an evil spirit and would bring a catastrophe to the country!

These words came like a bolt from the blue, shocking everyone.

Upon hearing the news, the emperor's face changed suddenly. He was shocked and even more frightened. He never expected that his most beloved son would be charged with such a heavy crime.

On the balance of power, family affection and reason seem to become insignificant.

After weighing the pros and cons and struggling, my father finally made a decision.

He was taken out of the palace and was never allowed to set foot in the palace again!

During those long and lonely years, no one knew what he had been through...

As time goes by, birth, aging, sickness and death are the natural cycles, but he is like a lonely soul forgotten by God, unable to blend into the prosperity of life, nor touch the tranquility of death.

……

At this moment, a steady and powerful sound of footsteps broke the silence around.

He endured the severe pain and tried hard to open his eyes. Through his blurred vision, he saw a big monk wearing a cassock and with ordination on his head slowly walking into his sight.

The appearance of this uninvited guest made Gou Huan feel strange and he couldn't help but sneer:

"Oh, this is really strange. Where did this monk come from to beg for alms at the entrance of the imperial mausoleum?"

The monk had a calm expression, put his hands together, and chanted the Buddha's name softly:

"Amitabha, benefactor, the sea of ​​suffering is boundless, turn back and you will find the shore."

Gou Huan was filled with anger and resentment when he heard this. He sneered and stared at the monk in front of him with a sharp gaze, asking:

"Shore? You said that if you turn back you will find the shore, but I have never even seen the shadow of the shore. Can you show me where the shore is?"

Master Chan Liao was not angry, but smiled gently, as if he saw through Gou Huan's inner struggle.

He slowly took two steps closer, stretched out his right hand, and gently touched Gou Huan's eyebrows with his fingertips. His movements were gentle but powerful.

At this touch, Gou Huan felt a warm current flowing in from between his eyebrows and instantly flowed throughout his body, as if even his soul was comforted.

"Donor, everything in the world has its cause and effect. The suffering and hardships you have experienced are all inevitable disasters on the road of cultivation. The shore is not far away, but in your heart. When you can let go of your obsessions and face your heart, you will naturally find your own shore."
