Practice Remembering You

Chapter 370 Rejection

Seeing Yun Ling's expression, Zhang Yu realized that there must be something difficult to talk about, so he just changed the subject and asked Zhang Ran to go back.

Zhang Yu's actions made Yun Ling very happy: "My benefactor, are you doing anything? Is there anything I can help you with?"

"I'm looking for someone."

"Then can I join? I can help my benefactor." Yun Ling looked expectant.

"Of course you can, but it's a boring process. If you have nothing to do, just follow along."

Yun Ling followed Zhang Yu happily as she had in the past. While searching, she suddenly asked, "My benefactor, I have learned something about repaying kindness from humans. What do you think?"

Zhang Yu raised his eyebrows slightly and asked with interest, "Oh? So what did you learn?"

Yun Ling's cheeks flushed slightly, and she said shyly, "I've heard that many women in the mortal world, after receiving favors from others, would say that they have nothing to give back, and the only thing they can do is to pledge their love to the benefactor... That... Benefactor, if possible, I would also like to pledge my love to you in return, is that okay?"

Zhang Yu's mouth curled up slightly when he heard this, revealing a faint smile: "No need to be like this, I also said that when I saved you, I didn't save you with the intention of getting paid."

"Uh..." Yun Ling's face was slightly stiff. She lowered her head, her eyes flashing with complex light. She seemed to be thinking about something. After a moment, she bit her lips lightly, then slowly raised her head.

"My benefactor, even if it's not a favor, I still want to be with you." Her voice was soft and firm, her eyes full of sincerity and expectation.

Zhang Yu, who originally thought Yun Ling was joking, suddenly stopped and looked back at Yun Ling. He saw that her face was firm and her eyes were full of affection when she looked at him.

Zhang Yu could not help but be silent for a while, then he said seriously: "Yun Ling, I don't know the principles of love in your demon tribe, but I am a human being, so I can naturally accept people's concept of love. I am a married man, so you shouldn't reveal this to me."

Yun Ling's beautiful eyes sparkled with tears, and tears rolled in her eye sockets, forming a heartbreaking tear ring. Her voice was filled with sorrow, as if the whole world had lost its color.

"My benefactor, isn't your wife already dead? When your wife was still alive, I would never get close to you. But now that your wife has passed away and I have successfully transformed into a human form, why can't I get close to you?"

However, Zhang Yu responded calmly: "Although my wife's body has passed away, her spirit has not dissipated. She has been integrated into my heart of Taoism, and she has always accompanied and inspired me to keep moving forward."

Zhang Yu's voice was calm and firm, conveying an unshakable fact to Yun Ling.

Yun Ling still seemed a little confused: "Is it because I'm a demon?"

Zhang Yu shook her head: "I am not conservative about these things. If you can truly love each other, what does it matter if you are a transvestite?"

"I've made it clear." Zhang Yu interrupted Yun Ling's repeated questioning: "I only have my wife Mo Xue in my heart. I don't need, and I don't need, other people to interfere."

"Then why..." Yun Ling was interrupted by Zhang Yu as soon as she opened her mouth. She looked at Zhang Yu in a daze, not understanding why he was so determined about this matter.

"I've made it clear, I only have my wife Mo Xue in my heart. I don't need, and I don't need, anyone else to get involved."

Although Yun Ling understood human love, it was not that deep. Seeing Zhang Yu like this, her heart ached and tears welled up in her eyes. Although she tried her best to hold back the tears, two tears still fell because they were too full.

Then Yun Ling turned around and said, "I'm sorry, benefactor. I suddenly remembered that I have something important to do. I can't accompany you to find someone."

"It's okay, go do your own thing first."

Yun Ling wiped her tears and took two deep breaths. The little girl look on her face no longer existed. She seemed to have grown up a lot. She turned her back to Zhang Yu and nodded. Then she turned into a stream of blue-black light and left.

At this time, the nine children in Zhang Yu's body began to chatter and discuss what had just happened. Zhang Yu didn't care and continued searching as usual.

—Zhenwa Mountains—

This is a small mountain range with steep peaks and mist in between. There are many depressions of varying sizes on the ground, like scars on the earth. The water in the depressions forms mirror-like lakes, reflecting the sky and the surrounding mountains.

The lake water is crystal clear, fish swim freely in the water, and all kinds of exotic plants grow on the shore.

At the foot of one of the ordinary mountains in this mountain range, there is a woman wearing black feather clothes.

The woman had a slender figure and was meditating with her eyes closed. The breeze was blowing her hair. She had an ordinary appearance and was surrounded by a miniature three-legged golden tripod.

On the left stood a man, with a jet-black hair bun on his head and an ink-colored robe on his body. His eyes were filled with a demonic look and his entire body was filled with demonic energy.

There was a peacock lying on the right, its demonic aura was much weaker than that of the man. These two were the woman's war pet and mount.

There was a hexagonal halo rotating behind the woman. The halo looked like four overlapping squares and emitted a gray light.

Obviously, he is a powerful person in the seventh level realm.

"Whoo~"

The woman let out a long breath, opened her eyes, and looked up at the sky with a frown.

"Master, why are we running around like this? We can just find a place and refine that guy directly. Why do we have to keep changing places to refine him? If we had the time to run back and forth, the guy would have been refined long ago."

"What do you know!" The woman gently rebuked: "Since the day I caught the Skywalker, I sensed that an extremely powerful being was eyeing me. Every time I refined it, that powerful being would calculate my location and always be able to predict my location.

I had no choice but to leave as soon as I felt I was being tricked, which is why I was never caught."

"Since he is a strong man that even you, my master, are afraid of, I'm afraid we won't be able to escape." The battle pet was a little puzzled.

The woman was obviously confused about this matter. "I don't know why. That strong man only deduced my location and didn't take the initiative to look for me. But even though he didn't come to find me, I noticed from his calculations that there was a strong man who was not weaker than me looking for me. That strong man was causally connected to the strong man who deduced my location. Although I don't know the specific reason, it is obviously related to this."
