Chapter 2675: The Return Of Celestial Master Zuo (4)
"I understand. So, do you hate him?" Di Fuyi looked at her fixedly as he asked.
Lan Waihu went pale at the question, unsure of what to say. She closed her eyes and confessed, "I am not sure, but I never wanted him to die."
She looked at her hand and saw the knife that was stained with his blood. Irritated, she wanted to throw the knife away, but it seemed to be attached to her palm. She tried to fling it away, but the knife still stayed in her hand regardless of her efforts. Instead, the action of trying to get rid of the knife seemed to inflict pain on her palm. Shocked, she tried to fling the knife away again but failed. It felt as if her bones were breaking part with every move.
Lan Waihu looked at Di Fuyi for help. Di Fuyi stared at her intently with reassuring eyes; it was as if he thought of himself as her savior. "What is false cannot be true, and what is true cannot be false. Everything is all but an illusion of our minds..." He started speaking in a calm voice. Slowly but surely, the hatred that had been controlling Lan Waihu’s mind slowly vanished.
"Clang!" The knife slipped out from her hand.
Feeling weak, Lan Waihu sat on the ground to catch her breath. Di Fuyi propelled another streak of light to enclose Lan Waihu in a bubble. The temperature suddenly dropped drastically, making her feel as if she had just been placed in a pool of cold water.
Shivering, Lan Waihu could not help but look to Di Fuyi for an explanation. However, she realized that he was no longer focused on her condition. Instead, his attention had been diverted to the knife on the ground, which he reached out to with his hand. It had a bronze, golden texture on its blade, engraved with figures that were made from red strands being twisted together, like many tiny bugs crawling together in a mass. The evil feature was extremely unpleasant to look at.
