Chapter 355: Strength Surges, Sole-Self Heart, Heart-Strengthening Tremor Qi! Liuli's Provocation

Not a day passed without Nangong Liuli thinking of him, without a day of longing for him. Her worries never ceased. That stinking little brother is out there bearing the name of a Flower Thief. I know he is no wicked man, but others will surely misunderstand him, beat and curse him, make things difficult for him. Fate is truly hateful—why must it treat him this way? The road is fraught with danger at every step. I only pray that he returns safely. If—if the time is right, and he takes the chance to flee far away and never comes back to this place, I will be happy for him too.

As she watered the flowers in the courtyard, her thoughts drifted like fallen petals. The sorrow between her brows could not be hidden, and even the delicate flowers in the yard seemed to lose some of their color. Then, on this day, she suddenly saw Li Xian again. Overjoyed, she rushed at him. Li Xian opened his arms and embraced her, breathing in her faint fragrance as soft jade fell into his arms.

Nangong Liuli said joyfully, "You—you finally came back! I missed you so much. Are—are you all right?" Li Xian smiled. "I'm perfectly fine! The moment I returned to the Water Altar, I hurried here without stopping. I only wanted to see my dear sister sooner."

Nangong Liuli's eyes reddened. "I was afraid you—you had died out there. I—I prayed for you every day. As long as you lived well, even if you fled and never came back, I would still be happy for you. Heaven has pity—you returned before me safe and sound in the end. Heaven—Heaven has not treated me too poorly after all."
