Chapter 870: Run Jue’s Wrath [Run to the Voice That Is Calling!]
When she saw Run Jue like this, she didn’t know how to feel. She remembered one saying: Sometimes, we have to lose everything just to gain something better.
But could this saying apply to him? He lost Run Chu’s love and affection, yet he gained the heroine’s affection. But was he truly happy?
Who said that every ending an author and heaven wrote satisfied every character’s wishes? Only the characters themselves knew what they truly desired.
Perhaps the emotions in her eyes were too complex, everything she was thinking was reflected on her face.
"This sister, why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?" Run Jue, the young Demon King, tilted his head. He couldn’t explain how he felt at that moment. Her eyes were too beautiful to be real, yet too clear to be understood.
But why was she looking at him like this?
Shenlian Yingyue snapped out of her thoughts. She stopped looking at him and focused on speaking with Shenlian Yinzhu, asking him how to find a clue about her father in this dungeon prison.
Run Jue’s doubts remained unsolved, yet she ignored him. The feeling was unsettling. Still, he told himself he didn’t care. He turned to see Di Xiuyu, whose expression had turned unreadable.
Unlike the soft smile she had given him before, she now simply looked at him in silence.
"Sister Xiuyu, don’t blame me for being ruthless and ignoring you. Even if the Demon Emperor himself had appeared in that moment, I would still have chosen to stand by her side," Run Jue said with a helpless smile.
"Your duty is to protect me. Have you forgotten that?" Di Xiuyu stepped closer, her expression unreadable.
