Hearing this, Su Yun looked at the young woman beside him, his heart brimming with emotion.
The tacit understanding cultivated over a lifetime—those words truly moved him.
Su Yun's first marriage had been an arranged alliance. There had been no love between him and Chai Chuxi at the start; Chai Chuxi had regarded him as a trial stone on her path of seeking the Dao. Though affection had grown with time, the two of them had ultimately parted ways.
Su Yun and Chi Xiaoyao had shared a happy time together. He had once thought he would end up with Chi Xiaoyao, but the physiological differences between dragon and human had shattered that fantasy. His feelings for Senior Sister Xiao Yao would fade along with the end of Mating Season.
Su Yun's feelings for Human Demon Wutong were even more complicated. They were both opponents and bound by a strange sort of affection, forming a tie between them.
That feeling was more like a peculiar obsession. Su Yun wanted to turn Wutong back into a human, while Wutong wanted to turn him into a devil. The struggle between human and devil was the manifestation of their feelings.
They might have been able to come together, but the result of doing so would be the sacrifice of the other.
Only with Yu Qingluo were their feelings plain and real, with tenderness hidden in the smallest details.
Su Yun smiled without speaking, then walked with Yu Qingluo toward the distant future. He had always been uneasy about meeting his former wife, torn by gains and losses, but now he felt that none of it mattered anymore.
He no longer cared what Chai Chuxi thought.
"Scholar, something is tracking us!" Yingying looked back. Seeing faint ripples in space, she hurriedly warned him.
