Chapter 255: This kind of separating was called painful
She wanted to walk forward but he held on to her tightly.
The wind on a winter's day was very cold. As long as you revealed a bit of skin to the outside, it would all be maltreated by the wind as if the veins underneath the skin would split open.
But right now Chu Qing-Yan could only feel those fingers that gripped her wrist, closely stuck to her sleeves. That person's temperature seemed to go through her thick clothing and stuck to her skin. One hand was ice-cold, one hand was boiling hot. Now she knew what was called fire and ice these two heavenly elements' tastes.
Just like at this moment.
"Qing-Yan, this king has let Fire Spirit arrange manpower to let you go to Fu Li mountain range first, we'll arrive soon after you."
The cold as ice tone that Chu Qing-Yan heard was even colder than the wind in deep winter that thoroughly cut to the bone.
She dared not release the hand covering her ears. She was like an ostrich hiding in her own world.
Xiao Xu looked at that delicate figure with her back to him, even though his heart was very unwilling to part with her, he could not be soft hearted at this moment.
"Qing-Yan, I know you are listening." That clear and cold voice sounded along with the cold wind. "I also know you are a smart child. The a.s.sa.s.sination attempt just now wasn't the first time, and also won't be the last time. Maybe you feel that with Xiao Lie Cavalry present, those enemies won't be a problem. But if we are to continue walking on this road, we will encounter more and more opponents. They will be more and more difficult to deal with. So I must let you reach the safe place first."
