Chapter 67: Qixi Night, Sharing a Bed Again!!!
Five times, exactly five times!!!
In the last life, even though they were bitter enemies, due to various coincidences and fate, they spent five Qixi Festivals together!!!
And now, this makes it the sixth time…
Thinking of this, both Liuliu Yue, who brought it up first, and Su Huan, who was barbecuing, fell into a subtle silence.
As enemies, how could they get along so peacefully?
"Here."
"Thank you…"
Just then, Su Huan placed the cooked food on a plate and handed it over, and Liuliu Yue took it without thinking.
When she finally realized what had happened, she felt incredibly frustrated to realize—
It seemed she had lost her guard against Su Huan…
However, now that the food was right in front of her, why argue? They could fight after the meal…
Don’t get the wrong idea, "jiao" is the term for kids playing together.
→ It means fighting.
After thinking for a moment, Liuliu Yue asked:
"Speaking of which, Su Huan, do you remember our first Qixi Festival together?"
"I remember; it should be today next year. At that time, your ultimate-stage Flash Butterfly and Double Moon Lord gave me a good beating. You captured me on the way of getting caught, and it happened to be Qixi. When we passed through Green Thunder State, you treated me to a meal."
Su Huan said without any hesitation.
Seeing that he didn’t pause for even a second, Liuliu Yue was a bit surprised. She gently blinked, "You remember it so clearly?"
"Of course! That day was almost the end of everything!" Su Huan replied.
"Uh, true…"
"However, in the end, you managed to escape. After all, you were just one of the suspects in the destruction of Jade Wind State, and I was only following orders, so I didn’t see you as a threat. Now that I think about it, there must have been a reason related to the Point System and an insider in Green Thunder State that helped you escape…"
Liuliu Yue seemed to ponder.
Su Huan nodded and continued to explain:
"Yes, for the next year after that, I hid in Green Thunder State to build up my strength."
"Until the third year, when someone leaked my whereabouts to Cathodic Queen. It was either Jade Star Envoy or Golden Robe Goddess—one of those two would surely meet a bad end. So, I was forced to fight against the followers sent by Cathodic Queen, battling all the way from Green Thunder State to Ring Star Island, nearly sinking Wanxing State, and causing harm to many living beings in Wanxing State. Just as that fierce battle ended, you chased me into the northern forbidden area."
"Then, while crashing through dozens of forbidden areas, we accidentally ran into the injured Candle Illumination Emperor…"
At this point, Liuliu Yue couldn’t help but stick out her tongue.
At that time, both of them were truly stunned.
It was also the first time they had witnessed an existence at the level of a Six Emperors.
Fortunately, Candle Illumination Emperor is the only one among the six emperors, besides Jade Star Envoy, who is not hostile towards human Battle Pet Masters.
They were not killed on the spot.
Instead, they were forced to take care of Candle Illumination Emperor for about two months, and then they were released together. Before leaving, each was given a Red Jade Skill.
At that time, it was also the second Qixi Festival spent with Candle Illumination Emperor.
After being released, the two quickly went their separate ways.
"Speaking of which, during the fourth year, I didn’t see you at all. Where did you go? It seems you never told me…"
"In the fourth year, Huang Qiuxuan descended and heavily injured Cathodic Queen. I was hiding nearby, and took the chance to give Cathodic Queen another strong hit with Thunder Sound Stone, then I crushed the Teleportation Stone and was directly transported to the Extreme West Ruins. It took me a whole year to come back…"
"In my past life, I could never tell you this, or else Jade Star Envoy would know everyone in Sky Calamity. They could count how many thunder-type Sun-moon-stars were missing in Extreme West Ruins and find out…"
As Su Huan’s words fell, Liuliu Yue suddenly showed an expression of realization.
That year, Su Huan spent a whole year in the Extreme West Ruins before returning to the Eight States, fighting along the way, gaining followers, and experiencing a huge boost in power.
Then, in the fifth year, he appeared again and directly defeated the Guildmaster of Holy River State, an old Battle Pet Master of the Sun and Moon realm.
It was also in that year that the Sky Calamity Expedition Team was officially formed…
The team was made up entirely of top-tier warriors at the Sun-Moon-Star level, and ordinary royal rank Battle Pet Masters didn’t even qualify for the tests.
"By the way, that year we fought more than forty times, right?"
"Yes, we fought four or five times every month."
"Sigh, it was clearly me chasing you for the first two years, but after you returned from the Extreme West Ruins, I suddenly felt powerless against you, especially with the few thunder-type Sun-Moon-Star pets you brought back; I couldn’t handle them on my own…"
At this point, Liuliu Yue let out a helpless sigh.
From that time on, Su Huan was no longer the mouse being hunted, but a tyrant who struck fear into the hearts of everyone in the Eight States.
The headquarters of the associations in Holy River State and Wanxing State were pressured and threatened by the Sky Calamity group he led.
Because of this, Quan Zhiliang and Tianxue Yi hesitated and both left the Sky Calamity expedition team, leaving Liuliu Yue to fight alone.
"However, even though the situation was very tense that year, we still celebrated the Qixi Festival together," Su Huan suddenly mentioned.
"Yes, as the Qixi Festival approached, the Battle Pet Association headquarters gave us a break, and we thought about going to Holy River State to see the sea, but we didn’t expect that your Sky Calamity base was right there!!!"
She recalled the scene from that day once again.
Liuliu Yue couldn’t help but cover her face.
At that time, the entire expedition team was guessing that Sky Calamity’s base was either in Colorful Cloud Area or in some forbidden area near Green Thunder State.
So, she really never expected that Sky Calamity’s base was in Holy River State!!!
At that time, she and Su Huan accidentally ran into each other right on the beach…
However, now I can understand, Holy River State is the closest place to the Extreme West Ruins, making it easy to escape at any time.
Also, Green Thunder State has helped Su Huan and took in refugees from Jade Wind State.
So, he doesn’t want to involve Green Thunder State.
It was a rare holiday, and Liuliu Yue did not want to ruin it, so she didn’t tell her teammates. Instead, she secretly had dinner with Su Huan, who jokingly called it a return dinner from two years ago.
Although there were several dramatic moments when her teammates almost recognized her…
This was their third time celebrating the Qixi Festival together.
"The fourth time would be the sixth year, close to the Qixi Festival. Back then, a few of our teammates were captured by you, forcing us to bring the Sky Calamity members we had captured for an exchange."
"You made me take the hostage to your Sky Calamity headquarters alone. Looking back now, were you doing this on purpose?" Liuliu Yue narrowed her eyes slightly.
"……"
"……"
"Don’t falsely accuse me; I was just worried that you were too tired and asked you to come over to rest for a while. By the way, didn’t you come to the Sky Calamity headquarters and sleep for two whole days and nights without a care?"
"Moreover, I thought, if you were in such poor condition and accidentally defeated me, it wouldn’t really mean much…"
Su Huan hurriedly waved his hands to explain.
But now that I think about it, that must have been the warmest time between those two.
After that, the situation took a sudden turn for the worse.
The seventh year.
They spent their fifth Qixi Festival together in Dragon Palace.
Ahem, the matters in Dragon Palace are too complicated, so let’s not talk about them here…
In short, after the Dragon Palace Incident, Quan Zhiliang was killed, and the entire Battle Pet Association suffered a heavy blow, with their forces greatly reduced, so much so that the annual Academy League was no longer held.
At the same time, after leaving Dragon Palace, Su Huan was promoted to legendary status and directly defeated the Cathodic Queen, shocking the entire world.
In the same year, Su Huan, using the name Purple Sky Tribulation, caused chaos in Nineteen Thunder Prison and took the legendary Evolution Roadmap of the Thunder Sound Stone.
This angered Emperor Nukui Duke.
In the ninth year, while Purple Sky Tribulation was held back by Nukui Duke, the Green Thunder State Association and Sky Calamity joined forces to counterattack the headquarters of the Battle Pet Association.
Because the Battle Pet Association had just gone through the Dragon Palace Incident and had suffered losses, they were no match for Su Huan at that time.
From that year on, the positions and factions of Liuliu Yue and Su Huan were completely separated; they never met privately again, and every time they faced each other, they fought with all their strength to defeat each other’s teammates.
As hatred and misunderstandings continued to accumulate.
Finally, the time came for the tenth year.
With a conclusion that leads to mutual destruction, the story comes to a perfect end…
Scenes from the past life are vivid in memory, as if they were yesterday.
In this moment, when reflecting back, both of their expressions are somewhat complex and subtle.
"Su Huan, tell me, why did you hold back in the end…?"
"Could it be that you have become soft-hearted again like before?"
"……"
"……"
"Uh, maybe I was just tired, or perhaps it’s better to die with the Thunder Sound Stone in your hands than to let all of humanity be destroyed by the out-of-control Thunder Sound Stone after its evolution…"
"By the way, Master Saintess, in this life, if the Jade Star Envoy issues a warrant for me again, will you lead the team to hunt me down?"
During their conversation, just in case, the two of them had blocked Battle Pet’s ability to sense what was happening outside, so they didn’t need to worry about being overheard by Thunder Sound Stone about events from their past lives.
At that moment, facing Su Huan’s very serious question.
Liuliu Yue was momentarily taken aback.
After a while, she did not answer but suddenly passed the plate to Su Huan.
"I still want to eat!!!"
"Okay…"
Su Huan choked a little, but then his expression relaxed, and he continued to roast meat for Liuliu Yue.
Now, the atmosphere between the two of them was more like the relationship they had in the five or six years before their rebirth, instead of the bad and tense situation just before they were reborn.
Although they were on different sides, there was no hostility or sharp conflict.
This seems not bad…
Before they knew it, two hours had passed.
After baking more than ten times, Su Huan finally fed Liuliu Yue to her fill.
The restless Liuliu Yue ran outside to study the Qianyuan Moon Set.
Su Huan stayed in the cave, carefully cleaning Liuliu Yue’s cooking tools.
Speaking of…
Although this was their sixth Qixi Festival together.
But bringing gifts on Qixi should still be the first time, right…?
No, no, no, this is not a Qixi Festival with gifts; it just happens that they captured a Qianyuan Moon Set, and not taking it out would be a waste…
Realizing he was thinking wrong, Su Huan quickly shook his head.
"Buzz—"
Before long.
A soft golden light burst forth outside the cave.
The body of Qianyuan Moon Set slowly dissolved into the air.
Successfully transformed into Liuliu Yue’s third Battle Pet!!!
This shows that Liuliu Yue was quite happy with this Qixi gift; after all, in his past life, many gold-type Battle Pets fought fiercely just to join Liuliu Yue’s team.
"Su Huan, thank you…"
"With the help of Qianyuan Moon Set, the dangers of this Burning Heart State journey have greatly decreased."
"After all, at this stage, the power of Super Winged Sparkling Moon cannot yet threaten the royal rank."
Returning to the cave, Liuliu Yue sincerely thanked him.
As she finished speaking, she signaled Su Huan to open his palm, and then placed a small, unremarkable stone in his hand.
This is the Teleportation Stone…
"This is your reward."
"Isn’t this a gift for the Qixi Festival?"
"Say that again!!!"
In response to Su Huan’s teasing, Liuliu Yue’s face turned red.
After lightly scolding him, she flipped her hair and turned to lie down on the carpet she had prepared earlier.
"In this life, you will often provoke the Cathodic Queen and other strong ones. Remember to keep track of time and don’t pull me into danger. I don’t want to find out I’m running for my life when I switch over."
"Yes, Master Saintess~~~"
Su Huan happily put away the Teleportation Stone.
This thing might not be very useful for Liuliu Yue, but for someone like me who faces danger every day, it’s worth as much as a Red Jade Quality skill!!!
After that, Su Huan casually found a corner to sit down and began to rest his eyes.
Since their past lives, they often spent the night together, but there was nothing romantic about it. They were just taking a temporary break in a dangerous environment to help watch over each other.
Whenever I helped keep watch, Liuliu Yue would sleep like a log.
Even more at ease than when my Battle Pet keeps watch…
In the quiet environment, they passed about ten minutes like this.
Just when Su Huan thought Liuliu Yue was sound asleep.
Liuliu Yue, with her back to him, suddenly whispered, "No…"
"Hmm, I know," Su Huan realized she was answering the question from earlier.
"Good night."
"Good night~~~"
Tonight was their…
Sixth Qixi festival together.
