Chapter 843: Quarrel

Gu Jiuchen took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. "Did Linglong say where she was going?"

Xuanfeng shook his head, "No, she just said she needed time and space to sort out her thoughts."

"I know." Gu Jiuchen closed his eyes, and Ye Linglong's figure appeared in his mind. He knew that Ye Linglong must be very sad at the moment, and he must find her as soon as possible and explain everything to her.

"Xuanfeng, immediately send people around to inquire about Linglong. If you have any clues, please notify me immediately!"

"Yes!" Xuanfeng took the order and left.

Gu Jiuchen stood alone in front of the window, looking into the distance, his heart full of worry and longing. He knew that Ye Linglong must be in a corner at this moment, silently licking his wounds.

"Linglong, wait for me, I will definitely find you and explain everything to you!" Gu Jiuchen secretly vowed in his heart that no matter what the cost, he would find Ye Linglong and restore their love.

However, Gu Jiuchen didn't know that Ye Linglong had fallen into the trap of the devil's messenger, and what awaited her would be a more dangerous situation.

After Mingyue left Tianxian Sect, she ran all the way and finally found Ye Linglong in a secluded town inn.

"Linglong, are you okay?" Mingyue asked distressedly when she saw Ye Linglong's pale face.

Ye Linglong forced a smile, "I'm fine, I'm just a little tired."

"You are still lying to me," Mingyue held her hand, "I have heard about you and Gu Jiuchen."

"Stop talking," Ye Linglong interrupted her, "I don't want to mention him now."

Mingyue knew that she was feeling uncomfortable, so she stopped asking questions and just stayed with her silently.

On the other side, Gu Jiuchen was anxiously waiting for news, but one day passed and there was still no clue about Ye Linglong. Just when he was anxious, the bright moon suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Mingyue? Why are you here? Where is Linglong?" When Gu Jiuchen saw Mingyue, a glimmer of hope ignited in his heart.

"Linglong," Mingyue hesitated, but finally told Gu Jiuchen where Ye Linglong was.

"I understand, thank you, Mingyue." After Gu Jiuchen got the news, he immediately flew to the town with his sword.

He knew that he had to find Ye Linglong as soon as possible and explain all the misunderstandings. He couldn't lose her, nor could he watch their relationship break down like this.

In the small town inn, Ye Linglong sat alone by the window, looking at the bustling crowd outside the window, but her thoughts had already drifted into the distance.

She thought about the contents of the anonymous letter over and over again, her heart filled with pain and confusion. She couldn't believe that Gu Jiuchen would betray her, but the handwriting on the letter and the familiar tone made her have to believe it.

"Linglong, what are you thinking about?" Mingyue came over with a cup of hot tea.

"It's nothing," Ye Linglong came back to her senses and forced a smile, "I was just thinking about something."

"Still thinking about Gu Jiuchen?" Mingyue sat down opposite her.

Ye Linglong was silent. She didn't know how to answer Mingyue's question. She missed Gu Jiuchen, but she was afraid to face him and hear him admit those things in person.

"Linglong, listen to me," Mingyue held her hand, "I believe Gu Jiuchen is not that kind of person. There must be some misunderstanding here. You can't deny him just because of a letter."

"But" Ye Linglong wanted to refute, but didn't know what to say.

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion outside the inn. Ye Linglong's heart trembled, and an ominous premonition came to her.

"Linglong, wait for me in the room and don't go anywhere." Mingyue stood up and walked out of the door.

"Mingyue!" Ye Linglong wanted to call her, but it was too late.

She walked to the window and looked out through the window, only to see a familiar figure Gu Jiuchen standing at the door of the inn.

Ye Linglong's heartbeat suddenly skipped a beat. She subconsciously wanted to hide, but forced herself to calm down.

"Linglong, I know you are inside, let me in!" Gu Jiuchen's voice came from outside the door.

Ye Linglong took a deep breath, walked slowly to the door, and opened it

The door opened slowly, and Ye Linglong stood there, with a pale face and cold eyes, as if the person standing in front of her was not the man she loved deeply, but a stranger. "What are you doing here?" Her tone was indifferent, as if without any emotion.

Gu Jiuchen's heart tightened. Seeing Ye Linglong's appearance, he felt an indescribable pain in his heart. "Linglong, I know you are still angry with me. I am here to explain to you clearly that that letter is not true. I have never done anything to feel sorry for you!"

"Explain?" Ye Linglong sneered, but there was a hint of red in her eyes, "How are you going to explain? Say those handwritings are fake? Say you have never done those things? Gu Jiuchen, do you think I am a fool?"

"I" Gu Jiuchen was speechless for a moment. He knew that no matter what he said now, Ye Linglong would not believe it. "Linglong, please calm down and listen to me explain slowly."

"I can't calm down!" Ye Linglong pushed him away, rushed out of the room, and ran towards the street.

"Linglong!" Gu Jiuchen quickly chased after her.

People were coming and going on the street, Ye Linglong was shuttled among the crowd, and Gu Jiuchen was chasing after her. He didn't dare to use too much force for fear of hurting her, so he could only call her name anxiously behind her.

"Linglong, please listen to my explanation, things are not what you think."

"Then tell me, what's going on? How do you expect me to believe you?" Ye Linglong stopped and turned around to glare at him. The tears in her eyes could no longer be held back and burst out.

Gu Jiuchen was heartbroken and wanted to reach out to wipe her tears, but she opened her eyes. "Don't touch me!"

"Linglong, I love you, I have never changed!" Gu Jiuchen's voice was trembling. He had never been so helpless as now.

"Love me?" Ye Linglong seemed to have heard some joke, laughing so much that tears flowed out, "If you really loved me, you wouldn't let me endure this! How can you ask me to believe you? How can you ask me to believe you?" This so-called love!”

Their quarrel attracted passers-by to watch, point and whisper. Ye Linglong seemed to be unable to feel anything around her. She only saw the man in front of her who made her love and hate her.

"Linglong" Gu Jiuchen wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Ye Linglong's decisive eyes.

"Let's stop here!" Ye Linglong's voice was very soft, but it was like a sharp blade, piercing Gu Jiuchen's heart.

He froze on the spot, watching Ye Linglong turn around and leave, disappearing into the crowd, but he was unable to stop her.

At this moment, two figures fell from the sky and landed in front of Gu Jiuchen.

"What's going on? What happened?" Mingyue's anxious voice came, and standing next to her was Xuanfeng with a solemn expression.

Mingyue and Xuanfeng landed on the ground and saw Gu Jiuchen standing in the crowd in despair, his face full of pain and helplessness, and they suddenly understood something in their hearts. Mingyue didn't care about anything else, and quickly ran to Ye Linglong, took her hand, and asked worriedly: "Linglong, what happened? Why did you and Jiuchen quarrel?"

Ye Linglong's eyes were red and swollen with tears, but she stubbornly refused to speak. Xuanfeng looked at Gu Jiuchen and asked in a deep voice: "Jiuchen, tell me, what happened?"

Gu Jiuchen took a deep breath and briefly recounted the whole story. He emphasized that the letter was fake and that he had never done anything to feel sorry for Ye Linglong. However, his explanation sounded so feeble to Ye Linglong.

"That's enough!" Ye Linglong suddenly shouted, "Gu Jiuchen, how long are you going to lie to me? Do you think I'm still the little girl who didn't understand anything? I saw that letter with my own eyes, and the handwriting was yours The tone is yours and the content is yours.”

At this point, Ye Linglong's voice choked up and she couldn't say any more. Those ugly words were like sharp knives, piercing her heart hard and making her miserable.

"Linglong, listen to me. Someone deliberately imitated my handwriting in that letter and wanted to sow discord between us. You believe me, I"

"That's enough!" Ye Linglong interrupted him again. The disappointment and pain in his eyes made Gu Jiuchen's heart seem to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand, and he could hardly breathe. "Now that things have happened, do you still want to make up lies? You Do you think I will believe it?”

"I" Gu Jiuchen opened his mouth, but found that he was speechless. He didn't know how to explain in order to eliminate the doubts and pain in Ye Linglong's heart.

Seeing that the two of them were agitated, Mingyue hurriedly advised: "Linglong, Jiuchen, you all calm down, talk about what you have to say, and stop arguing."

However, her persuasion had no effect. Ye Linglong and Gu Jiuchen were both trapped in their own emotions and unable to extricate themselves.

"Linglong, I know you are very angry and sad now, but I can swear to God that I have never done anything to feel sorry for you. My heart for you is as good as heaven and earth!" Gu Jiuchen's voice was trembling. He has never been so powerless as now.

"But you have never really trusted me." Ye Linglong's voice was very soft, but it was like a heavy hammer hitting Gu Jiuchen's heart. "You always protect me too well. You think it's for my own good to expose me to any danger, but have you ever thought that it will make me feel that you don't believe in my ability to protect myself or that I can fight alongside you?"
