Huang Yueli knew she was in the wrong and hurriedly leaned over to kiss his perfectly chiseled cheek.
“I’m sorry, I know I’m in the wrong… Moreover, I didn’t do it purposely. I thought my clan had sent someone to pick me up and he would be very reliable. Whoever knew that I would meet with a sinister, cunning old man!”
Huang Yueli said softly with a slight trace of coquetry.
Li Moying heard her euphonious voice and his heart instantly softened up.
But he didn’t miss out on the doubtful point in Huang Yueli’s words.
“Wait, what do you mean? What sinister, cunning old man?”
Huang Yueli sighed and said, “He’s Elder Huang Sanbai from the Sacred Phoenix Race! Back then, he led a group of people to pick me up from the Soul Connection Ocean and said that the clan valued my innate talent a lot. They wanted to nurture me and I didn’t doubt him. Whoever knew…”
Huang Yueli spilled out everything about the happenings in Soul Connection Ocean, including the part where Huang Sanbai suddenly became hostile and wanted to kill her.
Li Moying’s expression turned pale, and he was horrified!
“Luckily you’re very alert and know how to defend against that old man. Otherwise, the consequences would be dire!”
Li Moying narrowed his eyes and an austere look flashed past his eyes!
“I met that Huang Sanbai in Serene Rain Town, and I also asked him about your whereabouts. But not only did he not say a word about it, he even blamed the Cloudy Qilin Clan. He said that Cloudy Qilin Clan’s clansmen sneaked an attack on you, causing you to go missing!”
“Back then, I thought that he wouldn’t possibly attempt to murder the clan’s god grade genius. Whoever knew that he had designs on the Sky Phoenix Ring on you. No wonder… now that I think about it, he indeed seems very suspicious! It’s all my fault for not being vigilant enough. I didn’t discover his abnormality back then!”
Now that Li Moying recalled the scenario then, he felt extremely vexed!
If only he had discovered that Huang Sanbai’s words weren’t quite right, he might not need to go on such a big detour and his Li’er wouldn’t need to meet with so many dangerous situations. The two of them might have met up sooner!
Li Moying’s hands clenched into fists as he punched the edge of the bed.
Huang Yueli saw his remorseful look and was heartbroken. She walked up and placed her fingers over his brows, smoothening the creased folds.
“Don’t blame yourself. What you say is not wrong. Huang Sanbai is an esteemed Elder in Sacred Phoenix Race after all. Just look at the attitude of the other clansmen towards him, he should be highly respected in the clan. Who could imagine that he is actually a sanctimonious-looking hypocrite?”
“Even I also didn’t think that such a thing would have happened from the start, not to mention you who is from the Cloudy Qilin Clan. This is very normal…”
She stretched out her head and rubbed it against Li Moying’s chest.
“The most important thing is we’ve finally met again, regardless of all that had happened…”
Hearing Huang Yueli’s words, Li Moying’s feelings slowly settled down.
He stretched out his hand and rubbed Huang Yueli’s head. His tenderness uncontrollably gushed out.
“That’s right, Li’er. Since the day I ascended, we’ve not met for close to two years… There’s never a day that I haven’t missed you in the past two years… Li’er…”
Hearing the man’s magnetic voice by her ear, Huang Yueli’s heart pounded agitatedly as she hugged Li Moying’s neck.
“Me too, me too! Moying, I miss you so much! I’ve been cultivating day and night every single day, just so that I can meet you sooner!”
