Although Xi Jingxuan had regained her sight, to further prove that she would not go berserk, Jun Changxiao kept telling her tragic stories along the way.
Whenever she finished listening, Palace Mistress Xi would frown and look dejected, yet she remained normal and never went berserk.
Thus, Jun Changxiao temporarily concluded that the energy sucked away was the chief culprit behind her split personality!
So he decided, "Letting it out is impossible. Keep it locked up for now."
The barrier inside the Vacuum Cleaner was very strong. Unclean things could not break out, so it was more than capable of holding them prisoner for a long time.
Jun Changxiao even considered whether he should stock up on a few more.
"Sect Master Jun."
Xi Jingxuan asked, "Do you have any more stories?"
"Yes!"
Jun Changxiao sat cross-legged, took a bite of an apple, and said, "Yesterday I told you about Romeo and Juliet. Today, I'll tell you about Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai."
The system said, "..."
"Okay!"
Xi Jingxuan's large eyes widened, her face full of anticipation.
"The story goes like this..."
"Later, Liang Shanbo died. Zhu Yingtai knelt before his grave and wept, then suddenly saw Liang Shanbo's figure. The two of them turned into butterflies and flew away together."
By the time she finished listening, Xi Jingxuan had wept herself into a tearful mess.
She removed her glasses and wiped away her tears, choking up as she said, "Why can't lovers become a married couple in the end?"
"Ah."
Jun Changxiao shook his head. "What is love in this world, that it teaches people to pledge their lives and deaths to one another?"
"Palace Mistress Xi."
After a pause, he said, "Tomorrow, I'll tell you the story of Cowherd and Weaver Girl."
The system could not help
