Mo Dao Zu Shi: Together |Zhuiling| ✅

Chapter- 2

JinLing abruptly got up, and took his sword and sheathed it.

Sizhui however was still seated. He massaged his temples and closed his eyes to process what had happened just now. When he opened his eyes he saw a hand that was offering him for help.

It was JinLing. JinLing's gaze, however was somewhere else. He didn't knew where to keep his eyes on. And for some reason his cheeks were flushed pink. Thanks to the dark night it was not visible.

Sizhui took his sword and accepted his hand to get up. His hands were soft and moist because of the heat, and a little muddy as well.

After getting up he only said one phrase,"Thankyou." His mind was either blank or a mess. He wanted to ask JinLing what he meant by 'then don't move' at that time. But they weren't the only one present there.

JinLing was ofcourse choking up. He just walked away without any words. He walked and walked and walked without any aim.

"Oi, where are you going?" JiangCheng shouted, "You again wanna go to the mountain?!"

JinLing then realised that he was so unfocused that he was going towards the dark bush, rather than the primitive road that would lead them down the mountain.

He fleeked the hem of his robe and made a u-turn and without saying anything he went down the mountain.

JiangCheng ,"..."

WeiWuxian, "..."

LanJingyi, "..."

LanSizhui and LanWangji, "..."

JiangCheng didn't wanted to leave him alone in this mountain. So he too walked behind him followed by Fariy.

And like that JinLing, JiangCheng amd Fairy left.

LanWangji, WeiWuxian and LanJigyi finally landed.

Sizhui was still in a little daze but was fast come back to his senses. He cupped his hand and bowed, "Hanguang-jun. Childe Wei."

LanWangji nodded. But WeiWuxian's eyes were curved in crescent moon shape for some unknown reason. Or maybe the reason was known? But Sizhui thought not to pay attention to his intentions.

Jingyi was however still in shock. He said, "Si-Sizhui you and JinLing... Are you two..." He was so shocked that he stuttered and couldn't complete the sentence.

Sizhui shook his head and sighed, "Its nothing. He just fell over me." WeiWuxian crossed his arms and agreed to him, "Yes, yes. He fell head over heels for you."

"N-no. No. Its nothing related to what you're thinking Childe Wei." Sizhui said while hurriedly waving his hands in air.

"It better not be that."

"..."

Rumble~~

They all looked towards the origin of the noise and saw that Wen Ning was finally coming out of the dense bush. He greeted, "Hanguang-jun. Childe Wei."

"Oh hey Wen Ning! Since when were you here?" WeiWuxian asked while swaying his right hand.

He replied, "Since the time Childe Jin fell over A-yuan."

"What?!"

Everybody's gaze landed over Sizhui who unintentionally exclaimed. He was so embarrased that he was on the verge of turning into a tomato. He dropped his head to ignore those four pair of eyes upon him.

Wen Ning added, "But I won't judge." And nodded his head to himself while crossing his arms.

Sizhui said, "Yes thankyou. I think now we should head back to Gusu."

LanWangji responded, "Mn." And with a flow of his spiritual energy Bichen unsheathed itself. So, they were returning by sword.

They bid farewell to Ghost General and flew on their swords to Cloud Recess.

The curfew was just gonna start. Thanks to the sword that they could reach in time. Otherwise, god knows where they would have slept at night.

After having dinner, Sizhui went to Cold Spring to clear his head. He was thinking too much upon such a small matter. He tried not to think. But the number of times he tried not to think, double the times of it he would think.

He would think of that pale symmetrical face, those phoenix eyes, the thin lips, a perfect nose and a vermillion mark in between his eybrows. His golden robes and his long brown hair. Pride and arrogance in his eyes and voice. So beautiful. So tempting.

Wait.

Why was he thinking such thing?!

He must be out of his minds!

He can't think of such ridiculous things. The one he's thinking about right now is currently the Sect Leader of Jin sect. And he knew that, that person won't waste his time on such personal matter.

Above that won't he feel disgusted to have a connection with a man. He thought about the time when JinLing would twich his face while seeing Hanguan-jun and Chile Wei together being totally lovey dovey.

No. No. No. There won't be any chances for him to be with JinLing.

He vigorously shook his head under the moonlight, bathing alone in the cold water. In a hope, that this cold water could dim his internal burning but to no avail.

He felt that the cold water was eveporating on his skin instead of cooling him.

He lowered his gaze and saw his reflection on the surface of cold spring. The eybrows cast a shadow on his cheeks and made a unique pattern with the blush that was around his cheeks.

And slowly his gaze landed on his forehead ribbion. His gaze suddenly and abruptly darkened. He felt ashamed. How could he think of someone else in such an indecent way while putting on his forehead ribbion?

Yes, he thought that thinking of a beauty was indecent.

He closed his eyes and tried to meaditate. He repeated the three thousand rules of GusuLan Clan in his mind. To distract himself from any further imagination.

After cooling himself a bit. He came out of cold spring, then wore his outer robe and trouser and headed towards his chamber.

As he was walking up on the stairs of cold stones of cold spring, he saw a man in white robe, adorned with fore head ribbion, his head drooped down and was kicking small pebbels.

Upon closer look he saw who it was. He was startled to see him here. But nevertheless, he called out "Jingyi."
