Chapter 1223: Chapter 1220: Perils of the Multiverse, Wishing You Cherish It (1 more)

When Xiao Tian saw Jiang Xunnan, the expression on his face instantly became most splendid.

"Xun... Xunnan, I...!"

But before he could finish his words, Jiang Xunnan, looking somewhat pale, shook her head, then gently brushed the hair beside her ear, and spoke softly, "No need to say more, I already know everything!"

Xiao Tian looked at the girl with a face full of guilt, suddenly feeling an unprecedented panic.

It was a feeling he had never experienced, even when facing a life-and-death enemy.

And now Xue An, An Yan, Zui Meng and others were very tactfully staying away.

Only leaving the two of them in the scene.

"When... do you plan to leave?" Jiang Xunnan asked softly with her head lowered.

"Now that everything here is settled, I plan to..." Xiao Tian suddenly felt a bit hesitant to look at Jiang Xunnan, turned his head away, and gritting his teeth said, "I plan to leave right now! After all, the sooner I depart, the sooner I can find the Divine Monarch’s reincarnated true form!"

"Oh!" As if anticipating this response, Jiang Xunnan hummed a low affirmation, then fell into a long silence.

Xiao Tian felt his heart becoming more and more flustered, and his limbs felt awkward from excessive tension.

Seemingly noticing his clumsy unease, Jiang Xunnan, who had been bowing her head, suddenly chuckled, then lifted her head and looked at Xiao Tian with a teasing glare.

"Look at you acting all silly!"

Somehow, upon seeing Jiang Xunnan’s smile, most of Xiao Tian’s tension and fear dissipated in an instant; then, scratching the back of his head, he also started to laugh foolishly.

As they laughed together, ripples of light danced in Jiang Xunnan’s eyes, but soon after, she pretended to be relaxed, tilting her head back slightly and said lightly, "Once you go... will you return?"

Xiao Tian turned serious, and nodded very solemnly, "If I complete my mission, I will definitely return!"

"That’s good to hear!" Jiang Xunnan beamed, then performed a very formal bow, "The Multiverse is perilous, I wish you take care!"

Xiao Tian fell silent for a moment, then nodded, "You too!"

Jiang Xunnan smiled with feigned ease, "I’m fine, my home is gone anyway, it’s all the same wherever I am!"

After speaking, Jiang Xunnan slowly turned around, ready to leave.

The whole process was very lengthy, as if waiting for something.

Unfortunately, until Jiang Xunnan had completely turned around, no word was heard from Xiao Tian.

With her eyes filled with sadness, Jiang Xunnan chuckled at herself and then took a step to leave.

But just then, she heard the trembling voice of Xiao Tian from behind, tense from nervousness.

"Xunnan, would... would you wait for me?"

Jiang Xunnan’s figure froze instantly, tears she had held back for so long broke through at this simple sentence, then she turned around and nodded emphatically.

"I will!"

Seeing the tear-covered face of Jiang Xunnan, yet answering so earnestly, Xiao Tian felt something deep within himself shatter completely.

He rushed forward, stood in front of Jiang Xunnan, and gazed down dumbfounded at the girl who only reached his chest.

Jiang Xunnan’s heartbeat quickened, she bit her lip lightly, and tilted her face up to look at Xiao Tian.

The two stared at each other for a few seconds, then Xiao Tian reached out to embrace Jiang Xunnan slowly and bent down to kiss her on the lips.

Jiang Xunnan was startled, and soon responded to Xiao Tian with fervent emotion.

The kiss was long, so long that Jiang Xunnan almost felt as if she would suffocate.

But it was very brief, for compared to that lengthy wait which followed, this fleeting joy was but a momentary blink.

Finally.

Xiao Tian slowly stood up and gently enfolded Jiang Xunnan in his arms.

"I’m sorry!" Those were the only words Xiao Tian could utter, yet they seemed so pale.

Jiang Xunnan gently wrapped her arms around Xiao Tian’s waist, whispering, "Don’t say sorry, because I am willing!"

Xiao Tian suddenly felt a surge of sorrow but quickly inhaled deeply, then reached into his bosom and pulled out a small token.

This token was crafted entirely from mysterious gold, engraved on it was an ancient seal character for ’Xiao Tian’, its design exceedingly exquisite.

Xiao Tian handed this small token to Jiang Xunnan.

"Xunnan, this is the only thing my master left me, and now I give it to you. One day, when the seal character on this token starts to glow, it will mean I’m about to return!"

Jiang Xunnan treasured the small token as she received it.

Then Xiao Tian hugged Jiang Xunnan tightly one last time, murmuring softly, "Take care!"

Having said that, he let go, turned around, and strode off.

Jiang Xunnan stood there, staring blankly at Xiao Tian’s retreating figure, hoping he would turn back to glance at her.

But till the end, Xiao Tian never looked back.

Jiang Xunnan clenched the token tightly, tears swirling in her eyes again.

At this moment.

A sigh echoed from the void, and then Hu Ying materialized out of thin air, slowly approaching Jiang Xunnan, and faintly said, "Why didn’t you tell him that you are already pregnant?"

Jiang Xunnan quivered all over, lowered her head to look at the small token in her hand, and said softly, "What good would telling do? To bind him with this? To prevent him from finding his master? But by doing that, he might truly be better off dead!"

"Is that really fair to you?" Hu Ying couldn’t understand.

During these days in the Magic Treasures Pavilion, Hu Ying and Jiang Xunnan had become confidants who shared everything.

And due to Xue An’s deliberate arrangement that night, Jiang Xunnan was indeed carrying Xiao Tian’s child.

When she first realized this, Jiang Xunnan was very happy.

For she had already pledged her life to Xiao Tian.

But later, after hearing what had happened outside, she couldn’t help falling into agony and confusion.

She loved Xiao Tian, of course, she understood what he was carrying on his shoulders at this moment.

If she really used the name of the child, it might truly bind him.

But then Xiao Tian, even if alive, would be as good as dead.

Hence, Jiang Xunnan made her decision, to keep her pregnancy a secret from Xiao Tian.

Because she neither wanted nor wished for her man, on his mission-bound path, to be laden with excessive burdens.

When hearing Hu Ying’s question, Jiang Xunnan smiled, "Ying’er, you might have lived a thousand years, but your mentality is not much different from that of a child! How can there ever be fairness in matters of love?"

With that, Jiang Xunnan looked towards the direction where Xiao Tian had disappeared, whispering softly, "When you love someone, of course, you’re willing to give everything for him! If you are counting every little thing, seeking fairness in everything, then it only shows, you don’t really love him at all!"

Hu Ying was taken aback by this response, her eyes reflecting deep thought, but soon, she regained her composure and nodded seriously.

"You’re right! That’s exactly how I feel about Brother Xue!"

Jiang Xunnan couldn’t help but give a wry smile, then turned to look at Xue An and An Yan, who were standing in the distance, and in a whisper barely audible, she said: "Ying’er, you know my wait is incredibly long, but at least there’s hope. As for you... it must be quite difficult, I presume!"
