Chapter 335 You Don’T Love Him
Chapter 335: You Don't Love Him
Zhang Chi and Jin Ling'er have been missing for some time now, and during this period, Long Yan's mood has been consistently terrible.
She seems to be able to understand the feeling of losing Tang Ruoling that Zhang Chi experienced back then.
That feeling is not anger, not sadness, but helplessness, a deep sense of powerlessness.
Knowing what the person she loves has gone through, yet being unable to do anything except wait.
Perhaps if she waits long enough, he will come back.
Or perhaps if she waits long enough, she will grow old.
Having gone to the Secret Realm, life and death have become unknown. He may come back, or he may not.
She can't do anything, and this sense of powerlessness is causing Long Yan immense pain.
And she has also thought of a very serious problem: she can wait for Zhang Chi, but Long Yi cannot wait any longer.
But she has entrusted her body and heart to Zhang Chi, so how can she willingly give herself to someone else?
But if things really come to that kind of dilemma, how should she choose?
To uphold her loyalty to Zhang Chi, or to uphold the Long Family's heritage?
She must choose between her father and Zhang Chi.
Her father has protected her for over a hundred years. Long Yan is not ungrateful and does not believe that her achievements today are solely due to her own efforts. Personal efforts are important, but the cultivation and protection of the family are equally important.
Should she prioritize her personal feelings, or should she prioritize the family's thousands of years of heritage?
Regardless of how she chooses, it causes Long Yan immense pain. Just thinking about this question makes her feel like her heart is burning.
"What are you thinking about?"
Suddenly, a cold voice came from the room. Long Yan was startled and saw that it was Miao Yin, so she lowered her head again.
She was troubled in her heart and didn't want to pay attention to Miao Yin.
Miao Yin practices the art of musical cultivation, so naturally she can sense other people's emotions.
If someone deliberately conceals their emotions, Miao Yin may find it difficult to perceive, but Long Yan's intense pain and conflict are like a bright light in the dark night, very conspicuous.
Miao Yin couldn't help but start to contemplate the pain. She could understand it.
She has been quite miserable during this period as well, but she feels that she can trust Zhang Chi, so there is no need to be overly sorrowful now.
If Zhang Chi can come back, wouldn't she have mourned in vain?
And if Zhang Chi cannot come back, her sorrow would be meaningless. It would be better to focus on cultivation, accumulate strength, and seek revenge for Zhang Chi.
Therefore, Miao Yin quickly came out, as if she didn't care about Zhang Chi going to an unknown Secret Realm, and instead focused on practicing even harder.
She came to find Long Yan today because representatives from other forces have arrived, and it is customary for Long Yan, as the leader, to meet with them.
Indeed, this force is Myriad Spirits Cave.
The Dragon River Alliance is worried about being attacked by Sea Monsters, so they sent the outstanding disciples of various sects away overnight. Myriad Spirits Cave was directly attacked by Sea Monsters and had to arrange for people to be sent to Golden Cauldron Mountain overnight.
Once the war between the two clans starts, the destruction of the sects is only a matter of time.
Without preserving a few sparks, the sect's heritage will be lost.
To maintain their dignity, the people from Myriad Spirits Cave are posing as a diplomatic delegation.
However, since Jin Ling'er, the Saintess, is not here to receive them, White Tiger Pavilion, which lost the Saintess, is in a bad mood and is handling things perfunctorily.
But the Western State Alliance still exists, and Myriad Spirits Cave, under the guise of friendly exchanges, wants to meet with the Dragon River Alliance. It is only natural for Long Yan to preside over the overall situation.
That's why Miao Yin barged into Long Yan's residence and called for someone.
However, seeing Long Yan's state, Miao Yin no longer cares about the Myriad Spirits Cave delegation.
She starts to ponder what Long Yan is thinking, and based on some known clues, she has a faint answer in her heart.
However, speculation is still speculation, so Miao Yin directly questioned.
Long Yan glanced at Miao Yin and did not answer, but instead asked, "What are you here for?"
Miao Yin did not answer Long Yan's question and continued to ask, "Are you thinking about Zhang Chi? How come you want to remarry so soon after Zhang Chi left?"
"I'm not!"
Being sharply questioned by Miao Yin, Long Yan was instantly furious.
She didn't want to remarry, but she was afraid of being forced by Long Yi to remarry. She didn't know what she should do when that time came.
Seeing Long Yan's strong reaction, Miao Yin became more convinced of her guess.
"You really don't truly love Zhang Chi. He just left and you're already thinking about remarrying."
"I'm not!"
"Then what are you thinking?"
Once again, Long Yan was played by Miao Yin.
To prove her innocence, Long Yan expressed her concerns.
It's not surprising that she's worried. At the beginning, Long Yi had the intention of forcing her to become Zhang Chi's partner. That's why she wanted Zhang Chi to pretend to be her partner.
As a result, Long Yi suddenly got injured, and Long Yan went along with it, expressing her desire to have a child with Zhang Chi.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Chi also liked her and was willing to pretend to be her partner.
It's like a political marriage coinciding with someone you like, and it's a mutual pursuit. Getting married and having children are no longer difficult things, but rather something to look forward to.
However, Zhang Chi was suddenly sent to the Secret Realm by the Demonic Being. She didn't know if he would come back, and she would worry about the changes and challenges she would face next. Isn't that normal?
However, after listening to Long Yan's description, Miao Yin became even angrier.
"Is this your love for Zhang Chi? It's really shallow."
Miao Yin snorted coldly, with a hint of disdain, "When you weigh the pros and cons and consider this issue, you have already lost. This shows that in your heart, Zhang Chi is not the most important. When he conflicts with the interests of your Long Family, you will not firmly choose him. If one day, your father forces you to kill Zhang Chi, how would you choose? Would you hesitate like you are now?"
"No..."
Long Yan's scalp tingled at the thought of such a scene. She certainly didn't want to accept such a scenario.
Miao Yin took advantage of the situation and continued, "There is nothing that you wouldn't do. What if it really happened? Or let's say, your father doesn't force you, but he secretly kills Zhang Chi. Would you seek revenge for Zhang Chi?"
Long Yan: "..."
This question is too difficult to answer.
One is a close relative, the other is a beloved in her heart. What should she do?
"You can't even answer this kind of question, which is enough to prove that you don't really love Zhang Chi. In your heart, he has never been the most important. If that's the case, why do you have to be with him? Don't worry, if you remarry, it won't be a big loss for Zhang Chi. When he comes back, I will comfort him and not let him be sad for too long."
"You wish!"
Miao Yin's tactics had made Long Yan extremely angry.
She thought that Miao Yin was deliberately messing with her mentality in order to make her give up.
"I will definitely not let you have your way!"
Long Yan gritted her teeth and said, but Miao Yin still looked full of disdain.
"In the end, your desire for possession of Zhang Chi is all you have. You don't love him, so this is why I can't possibly surrender to you. I have to protect Zhang Chi, what about you?"
