The Evil Consort Above An Evil King

The man had very long hair and was floating on the surface of the water. He was in a red robe as he fixed his eyes on her. She could not see his eyes or even his features, but she could strangely feel the sadness in his eyes.

Her heart pumped rapidly as she rushed toward the lake! She was fast; however, she realized there was nothing but cold water when she jumped into the lake.

Long Siye was shocked by her actions. He asked as he looked at Gu Xijiu who was still in the lake, “Xijiu, are you alright? What’s in there?”

Gu Xijiu was now depressed as she knew it was an illusion again… She shook her head. “Nothing much; it’s so hot, I just want to take a splash.” In fact, she was frustrated and almost burst into tears…

She lifted her chin and looked to the sky. It was cloudy, and snowflakes fell on her lashes as well as her face. It made her eyes red. She then rubbed her eyes and squeezed out some water.

She frowned as she thought something was wrong with her eyes. In fact, she often tears for no reason as she usually woke up with a pair of wet eyes and a pain in her chest. Fortunately, she was now in the water, so Long Siye could not differentiate it was water or her tears.

Long Siye was still watching her. She did not use any of her spiritual power; hence, her hair and her face were wet. She was still looking at the sky even though the snowflakes were falling on her face, which made her look pitiful and lonely.

He was a little sad as he liked her since long time ago. She was not attached to anyone, but he never heard that she liked anyone too. The saddest part was that she always tried to distance herself from others as though she was waiting for someone, that made it more difficult for others to walk into her heart.

He thought of following her around. However, her Kung Fu was way more powerful now, and she could just appear and leave instantly to the extent he could not catch up. Therefore, he could only passively wait for her arrival.

Suddenly, he began to play the flute again. It was ‘Yi Ren Hong Zhuang’ by Meizi. The “love birds” were busy singing together in a pair

…

Certainly, Gu Xijiu knew this song too as the lyrics just automatically flashed across her mind.

“People said if a loving couple could not be together forever,

It was also good to spend some time together,

Though it was not possible to make it work again, there was a chance to meet in their dreams,

She asked herself who was the one she wanted to give the handkerchief with a pair of Mandarin ducks.”

Gu Xijiu did not sing along but returned to the shore after soaking herself in the water for a while. Of course, her clothes were dried the moment she got onto the shore.

She leaned against the chair as she listened to Long Siye play. She felt some familiarities. She somehow felt she has once experienced the same thing with someone else; the man was playing the flute as well.

Strangely, she saw a man in a purple robe playing the flute in front of her, and a lady leaned against his back with her arms wrapped around his waist…

“Instructor Long, do you like to wear purple clothes?” The song ended abruptly.

Long Siye paused for a moment and shook his head. He did not like purple clothes and subconsciously, hated this color.

However… “Xijiu, would you like me to wear a purple robe?”
