The End Times as a Song

Chapter 28 Out of place

"Ah Yan...!"

Li Luo desperately wanted to help Tu Shan Yan get over that unbearable past, but she was powerless to do so, because the unhappiness of childhood is very difficult to redeem.

"I don't want you to regret it... Think carefully about whether you want to go back to Qingqiu before you reply to me. I can give you some time, but not much."

Li Luo glanced at Tu Shan Yan and continued to persuade him.

"Huanhuan was taken away by the Da Nian beast for half a day, so I don't have much time to think about these trivial matters. How about I agree to Li Luo's request to let her release me first?"

Tu Shanyan muttered something to himself, then stood up and looked up at Li Luo, saying:

"I'll consider what you said, Li Luo, but I have conditions..."

"What conditions...? Tell me...!"

Li Luo readily asked Tu Shan Yan.

"Let me go, help me save Huanhuan...!"

Tu Shanyan replied hastily.

"What...? Aren't we supposed to be going back to Qingqiu now? Why are you dragging Huan Rugo into this again...?"

At this moment, Li Luo was both willful and helpless, feeling extremely frustrated. She couldn't agree to the conditions, and it seemed like she couldn't refuse them either.

"You don't agree?"

Tu Shanyan asked again to confirm.

"I...I don't want to, I won't help, because of her you haven't come home or paid attention to me all these years, I don't want to help you save her."

Li Luo's willful, spoiled princess temper flared up instantly, and she retorted to Tu Shan Yan with a righteous indignation.

"Okay, I knew you wouldn't agree. Since you don't agree, I don't think we have anything to talk about."

Tu Shanyan was caught off guard and didn't know that Li Luo disliked Huanhuan. Ever since Huanhuan saved Tu Shanyan, Tu Shanyan had started to distance himself from Li Luo. The misunderstanding caused the three of them to drift further apart.

"Wait a minute... let me think about it...!"

Li Luo probably realized that she had gone a bit too far, so she restrained her temper and took a step back.

"Huanhuan is in grave danger, what are you thinking about... Quickly untie me and go save her."

Seeing this, Tu Shanyan seemed to see a glimmer of hope and said with all his might, "If you help me save Huanhuan, we can talk about anything. I'll do whatever you ask."

"Stop! It's a deal, Ayan. Remember what you said today. No cheating. Don't try to back out as soon as you see that girl." Li Luo stared sharply at Tu Shanyan and said.

"Mmm...then let me go first...!"

Tu Shanyan glanced at Li Luo and responded obediently.

"I can let you go, but you have to promise me you won't try anything funny. Don't try to run away as soon as I untie you."

Li Luo put one hand on her slender waist and pointed at Tu Shan Yan with the other, scolding him.

"Miss Li Luo, don't worry. I, Tu Shan Yan, keep my word." Tu Shan Yan flattered and reassured Li Luo.

Li Luo quickly raised her right hand, made a hand seal, and cast a spell. The clue in Tu Shan Yan's hand immediately disappeared.

Tu Shanyan watched as the rope on his hands disappeared and excitedly shouted, "The feeling of freedom is so good... It really strangled me just now..."

Tu Shanyan loosened his soft, white hands and then his shoulders.

“Let’s go… let’s go save your Huan Ruge, then come back to Qingqiu with me…”

Li Luo crossed her arms over her chest, pointed in an unfamiliar direction, spoke, and then left.

"Hey... Li Luo, where are you going?" Tu Shan Yan awkwardly pulled Li Luo back.

"Isn't this the way?"

Li Luo asked, bewildered.

"Not this way...!"

He waved his hand, stroked Li Luo's nose again, tapped Li Luo's little head, and said, "You little silly, you're still the same as when you were little, you haven't changed at all..."

Tu Shan Yan revealed a sweet smile. Actually, Tu Shan Yan doted on his little sister Li Luo when they were young, but due to various reasons, Tu Shan Yan and Li Luo became estranged.

Li Luo stared blankly at Tu Shan Yan, completely captivated. She hadn't seen Tu Shan Yan smile in a long time; this was the first time he had smiled at her like that.

"What are you saying? Girls change a lot as they grow up, and I've changed 18 times already, how can you still say I'm stupid..."

Li Luo pointed dramatically in the wrong direction and said, "If we don't go this way, then which way...?"

"Let me think... Huanhuan was taken away by the Da Nian Beast. The Da Nian Beast seemed to have run towards the Crimson Peak Abyss just now. It should be in the Crimson Peak Abyss right now...!"

Tu Shanyan said to Li Luo with absolute certainty, "It should be this way...!"

"The opposite direction? How is this possible? Tu Shanyan must be mistaken..."

Li Luo asked incredulously.

"I really don't know what you ate to grow up like this? A fox, it's one thing to have a bad sense of direction, but your analytical and tracking abilities are also so poor. This way... keep up...!"

As he spoke, he took the initiative to pull on her sleeve, intending to use magic to fly away.

"You're grabbing my sleeve, trying to kill me...!"

Li Luo nimbly grabbed his hand, their fingers intertwined, and a pure, sweet scent filled the air.

"This feels really awkward...!"

He took Li Luo's small hand in his own and said, "Let's go?"

"Ugh……!"

Li Luo looked somewhat disappointed, hesitated to speak, and silently thought to herself:

"This is better than pulling each other's sleeves, which is too formal."

A sweet smile immediately appeared on Li Luo's face.
