Chapter 1540: Chapter 173 Reconciliation_2
Ah Dai took a deep breath, trying hard to calm the turbulent feelings inside him, and gathered his courage to grasp Xuan Yue’s soft little hand. Xuan Yue slightly struggled, but Ah Dai held her tighter. A blush rose on her face, and she said shyly, "What, what are you doing? Let go of me."
Holding Xuan Yue’s slightly cool little hand, Ah Dai felt a strong sense of satisfaction inside him, his mind cleared greatly, and he said firmly, "I won’t let go, not ever in my life."
Xuan Yue’s delicate body trembled, letting Ah Dai hold her hand, and said, "You, don’t be like this, it’s not good if others see us."
Ah Dai held Xuan Yue’s hand tightly and said, "What’s not good about it? You are the person I love most and my future wife; what’s wrong with holding your hand?"
Xuan Yue was stunned; she never imagined Ah Dai could say something so straightforward. Instantly, she felt embarrassed, "You, who is your future wife? Let go of me." Although she said that, a trace of sweetness rose in her heart, and she wasn’t as reserved as when she first came in.
Ah Dai gazed deeply into Xuan Yue’s beautiful eyes, speaking softly, "Yue Yue, I’m sorry, everything was my fault. Forgive me, will you? I swear, no matter what happens in the future, I will always be by your side, never leaving you, forever and ever. Whatever you want, even if it’s the stars in the sky, I will get them for you. Yue Yue, don’t be mad at me anymore; I won’t ever avoid you again. After all that has happened, I have realized you are my one and only true love in this lifetime. Yue Yue, I love you; I really love you a lot. Give me a chance to love you, will you?"
Xuan Yue’s delicate body trembled; in fact, how could she still be angry with Ah Dai? When he arrived in time that day, she had already forgiven him. Hearing his soulful words, Xuan Yue couldn’t hold back the grievances bottled up in her heart over these days anymore and threw herself into Ah Dai’s arms, weeping aloud.
Seeing Xuan Yue cry, Ah Dai instead breathed a sigh of relief, half sitting up, hugging Xuan Yue’s soft and elastic frame tightly in his arms, gently stroking her silky blue hair. Filled with excitement, he knew his Yue Yue had forgiven him; he finally regained the heart of his most beloved. "Cry, Yue Yue, cry out all the unhappiness in your heart. Everything is my fault. As long as you can forgive me, I am willing to accept any punishment." He pressed his face into Xuan Yue’s gentle hair, greedily inhaling her fresh scent, Ah Dai felt intoxicated, a happiness he had never felt before enveloping him.
Lying in Ah Dai’s warm embrace, Xuan Yue’s tears soon soaked through the front of Ah Dai’s gown. After a long while, her crying gradually ceased, and she sobbed, "Did you mean everything you just said?"
Ah Dai nodded firmly, holding Xuan Yue tighter. "Yue Yue, everything I just said comes from the heart, believe me. I promise I won’t hurt you again. As long as I can be with you, I don’t care about anything else. You have suffered too much for me, gone through too much pain; from now on, I will definitely bring you happiness, only make you happy. Good Yue Yue, believe me, I will love you until old age, forever and ever."
Xuan Yue curled up in Ah Dai’s arms like a small cat, teasingly said, "When did you learn to say sweet words? Come clean, what have you been doing these days?"
Ah Dai said gently, "Even if you don’t ask, I will tell you everything. From now on, there will be nothing I’ll hide from you." Pulling over the quilt, Ah Dai covered Xuan Yue as well, embracing her exquisitely shaped body. His heart grew hot, lightly kissed her hair and said, "When I left the Elf Forest, I was full of pain; at that time, I felt that even though the continent is vast, there was no place for me. I ran, ran desperately forward. Uncle Owen died, Teacher Goris died, Master also went to another world, even you were lost. I felt then that everything in the world seemed to be against me, no vitality remained inside me, only wishing to escape through death."
Xuan Yue, who had been covered by the quilt after feeling shy and warm all over, raised her head in shock and said, "What did you say? You wanted to commit suicide then? And you said the Sword Saint of the Tian Gang entered another world, what happened?"
Ah Dai gently wiped away the tears on Xuan Yue’s face, held her charming face with both hands, and kissed her forehead lightly. "Oh, Yue Yue! Do you know how important you are to me? Without you, how could I go on living? Haven’t you always wanted to know why my abilities improved so quickly? I can tell you now, but you must keep it a secret for me; even to the Pope don’t disclose it. This martial prowess of mine can be said that most of it was bestowed by Master!" Right then, he recounted how the Sword Saint of the Tian Gang passed on his techniques and taught him martial arts.
Listening to Ah Dai’s narration, Xuan Yue’s eyes filled more and more with surprise, murmuring, "So, the Sword Saint has already... Why didn’t you tell me earlier?"
Ah Dai sighed and said, "I believe Master’s isn’t dead; there was no corpse of his in the cave atop the mountain. The reason I didn’t tell you was Master’s wish. Master instructed me back then, until I reach his level of ability, I must not leak his ascension news, otherwise, the status of the Tian Gang Sword Sect on the continent would be threatened."
