Chapter 865 - 865 582 The Arrival of Light

Chapter 865: Chapter 582: The Arrival of ‘Light. Chapter 865: Chapter 582: The Arrival of ‘Light. As he listened to her emotionally breaking down, Colin’s eyes were more complex than they had ever been. He really hadn’t expected that after leaving “Passionate Paradise,” he would almost forget everything that happened there. Yet, there was still someone who had been lingering there all this time, constantly thinking about him, deeply contemplating him.

In the midst of his fleeting thoughts, Colin, with a tinge of guilt, slowly reached out to touch her back, trying to calm her agitated emotions and wanting to say he was sorry.

But the girl seemed to sense his intention first; she looked at him with eyes red and brimming with tears, gently shaking her head as if she wanted to stop him from continuing the subject…

She didn’t care about the truth or falsehood; what she cared about now was the person in front of her, the person she thought about every day…

That was all.

Colin fell silent, his emotions in turmoil. He only waited for the girl to vent for a while before tremblingly raising his right hand, hoping to wipe away the tears on her cheeks.

Unfortunately, due to the strong negative effects and his recently repaired right hand, he stopped halfway…

But Liu Yun seemed to have anticipated this as she gently cradled his palm to her cheek, rubbing against it like a little cat drawing warmth, then sniffling as she wiped away her own tears with her hand and placed Colin’s hand back.

Afterward, she raised a finger to each cheek, trying to pull off an optimistic smile, but unfortunately, no matter how she tried, it was imbued with a haunting beauty:

“Now, don’t say anything, just be quiet. It’s going to be very dangerous here soon. I will protect you, take you away from here, just like… just like what you did for me before. Regardless of whether this situation is somebody’s plan or not, at least for this moment, this is my will, my choice. Like I said, for you, I am unstoppable…”

She reached out and slipped her hands under Colin’s neck and the crook of his knees, lifting him from his waist and turned tail from the hall, rushing towards the thorny path outside before the terror-stricken gazes could catch up.

This journey was bound to be difficult.

But she didn’t care, even if it cost her life!

Beneath Liu Yun’s comforting, Colin unknowingly fell back into a heavy sleep…

After several checks that Colin was indeed asleep, Liu Yun melted in front of him, slowly pulling him into a special spatial area within her body for protection.

This would prevent the upcoming battles from accidentally causing him harm.

The transfer of work was far from easy…

It wasn’t long after they left that Liu Yun encountered attacks from many creatures. Even with some of the power bestowed upon her by her mother, she struggled under the relentless assaults.

However, she noticed that as long as she didn’t show any intent to head towards the sea, everything seemed manageable…

But if she made any corresponding attempts, or even just thought about it, things seemed to get worse.

No matter how carefully she hid herself…

Enemies would still find her in ways she couldn’t comprehend.

“Is this their blockade, huh? It’s just too excessive, not giving any room for maneuver.”

Liu Yun spoke softly, sitting in a room that had been cleaned spotlessly. Meanwhile, Colin was seated in a thick, comfortable chair, his eyes half-shut, motionless.

Several seconds after she finished speaking, Colin finally seemed to react, emitting a faint “Hmm.”

It wasn’t clear if it was a response or just an instinctive moan.

Still, upon hearing it, Liu Yun, dressed in elegant black attire, couldn’t help but smile with joy:

“Now, the blockade is weakening, but it’s not yet the right moment. It’s hard to break through their blockade. This isn’t me purposely dragging out the time to spend more with you; it’s just the reality of the situation…”

“Hmm…”

“If you have no objections, we’ll wait a few more days, and when it’s about time, I’ll take you through.”

“Hmm…”

“Anyway, I will definitely help you succeed!”

Liu Yun prattled on, saying many things. Occasionally, when Colin completely succumbed to unconsciousness and couldn’t even offer a basic response, she would sit at his side, resting her elbow on the table, and quietly watch him.

Only when she sensed some danger approaching, or Colin woke up, would she end this state of “relative stillness.”

During those times, she occasionally stood up, took out a comb, and, like dressing a doll, she would tidy up Colin’s hair, adjust his collar, and straighten his appearance…

Every now and then, when she saw that special finger bone pendant hanging on Colin’s chest, she seemed not to notice and simply ignored it.

As for “Yukionna,” for the most part, she chose to ignore her. Yet sometimes, she would bring her out, asking about Colin’s past. Hearing those harrowing adventures, Liu Yun would cover her mouth in worry, fear, and relief as if she had experienced them herself.

Undoubtedly, those experiences seemed incredibly perilous to her.

But when she heard some amusing stories and their gains, she would share in the happiness too…

The only regrettable thing was that she had no involvement in any of those stories—after leaving, he seemingly had no plans to return.

As for the reason…

Every time Liu Yun thought about it, the smile on her face would slightly fade.

“Wow!”

Yukionna, looking more mature and fuller than Liu Yun but still innocent in nature and no longer as afraid of Liu Yun, reached out her hands and made unintelligible noises. It seemed like she was describing something immense to Liu Yun, completely oblivious to her role in “betraying” Colin.
