Chapter 106 Who am I? (2/2)

The room was originally a main hall of a Taoist temple.

Hong Feibai knelt on the ground, looking at the girl in the coffin. Her black hair spread out, partially covering the grotesque wound. The blood on her face had been wiped clean by an elder, so now if one ignored the bloodstains on her body, she merely appeared to be sleeping.

Yes, just sleeping.

It was like the past when they practiced martial arts in the mountains, like when she watched him practice his swordplay, became tired from watching, wearied from waiting, then simply sat down at the base of an old tree on a limestone rock.

She would close her eyes in the warm spring breeze, waiting for him to finish his swordplay, waiting for the sunlight to dim.

And waiting for him to carry her back down to the sect's gate.

Waiting for the impatient scolding from Master and the laughter of Master's wife, waiting for the meals that seemed always to be just freshly made…

She would wait no more.
