(E-Ming and Ruoye are human btw)
In the serene realm of Ghost City, E-ming, the deadly Scimitar, who now is a human child, happily walked alongside Xie Lian as they explored the picturesque landscapes. Hua Cheng, ever watchful, trailed behind them, his crimson gaze following every interaction.
As Xie Lian and E-ming shared laughter, Hua Cheng couldn't help but feel a pang of jealousy. His usual confident demeanor wavered as he observed the two, a sense of longing burning within him. The Ghost King, accustomed to being the center of Xie Lian's world, found himself surprisingly unsettled by this change.
Despite the jealousy, Hua Cheng couldn't resist the urge to join them. "Gege, E-ming, what delightful activities do you have in mind today?" he inquired, his voice laced with a hint of mischief.
Xie Lian smiled warmly, "San Lang, we were thinking of visiting the Lotus Pond. Care to join us?"
Hua Cheng nodded, concealing his jealousy behind a confident smirk. As they strolled through the ethereal garden, E-ming and Xie Lian continued their animated conversation, their bond evident.
Hua Cheng's eyes darkened, but he masked his emotions. As the trio reached the Lotus Pond, Hua Cheng seized the opportunity to make his move. "Gege, may I have a moment alone with you?" he requested, shooting a pointed look at E-ming.
Xie Lian, sensing something amiss, agreed, and E-ming took his leave, and went to look for Ruoye. Alone by the Lotus Pond, Hua Cheng's jealousy surfaced. "Gege, why spend so much time with E-ming? Am I not enough?" he murmured, his tone betraying vulnerability.
Xie Lian, touched by Hua Cheng's honesty, gently reassured him, "San Lang, you're irreplaceable. E-ming is a dear friend, nothing more."
Relieved, Hua Cheng's jealousy transformed into a renewed determination to cherish the time with his beloved. As they rejoined E-ming, the three continued their day together, the Lotus Pond witnessing the complexities of divine love and the occasional twinge of jealousy.
