From Prisoner to Si Chen

Ms. Meiweng fell silent.

After a while, she said:

"In that case... then Mr. Xuexiao will be the only representative of our 'Midnight Rose' to participate in the gambling fight."

"Madam!" Yading frowned and said.

But Meiweng just shook his head.

"Mr. Yading, I am very grateful and admire your bravery and responsibility... but this gambling fight is indeed extremely dangerous. With your strength, I am afraid you can't do anything."

As she said, she looked at the strong man with her deep blue eyes, half relieved and half comforting:

"I believe everyone here can feel your determination... but my decision is not only for your safety, but also for the overall situation."

"Madam, are you worried... that I will hold back Xuexiao and cause the gambling fight to fail?"

Yading asked in a deep voice.

Meiweng did not answer and remained silent.

After a few seconds, Yading seemed to be discouraged, sighed, and said:

"Okay, I understand."

He plopped back in his seat and clenched his fists again.

Immediately, he looked up at the purple-eyed young man who was the only one standing in the whole venue, and said loudly:

"Mr. Blood Owl! You... must win!"

"Thank you." Jilan smiled with narrowed eyes. "I will try my best."

"Come on! Mr. Blood Owl!"

Miss Spark poked him with her elbow, and winked with a smile.

Jilan returned the greeting gentlemanly.

Then, whether it was a few familiar people or members who had never met before, they all sent blessings and encouragement.

After a while.

Ms. Mei Weng stood up and said:

"You might as well take advantage of this gathering to have a good exchange, and you can also exchange what you have, trade or entrust."

"Baron Opal, you will host the gathering for me, okay?"

"Of course, dear lady."

The flesh on Baron Opal's face trembled, and he quickly touched his chest and saluted, saying.

Mei Weng nodded and looked at Jilan again.

"Mr. Xuexiao, come with me, let's go meet the referee of this gambling fight... the leader of 'Heavenly Palace Dawn', 'Queen of Diamonds'."

"Yes, Ms. Meiweng."

Jilan was startled at first, and then said goodbye to the members around him.

He picked up the hat on the table, put it on again, and then left with his cane.

After he left with Ms. Meiweng, everyone talked about it, as if they were surprised and envious that Jilan could meet the apostle.

"I don't know which apostle the 'Queen of Diamonds' is. I really want to see this living legend with my own eyes..."

Miss Spark pouted, her eyes full of expectation.

The old man who made the cane beside her shook his head and sneered and joked:

"If you are stronger and braver, you can represent the secret sect to participate in the gambling fight, and you can realize this wish."

"Stinky old man! Look down on people, right?!"

Miss Spark raised her pretty eyebrows and rolled up her sleeves.

As she spoke, sparks flew from the corners of her mouth, as if she was about to spit fire at any moment.

"Oh! Young people are bullying old people! Everyone, come and judge!"

The old man who made sticks waved his stick and shouted deliberately.

Suddenly, everyone present burst into laughter.

The atmosphere was lively for a while.

…

…

"Ms. Mei Weng, where are we going?"

Jilan followed the leader and asked in a low voice.

Ms. Mei Weng did not turn around, but just said:

"In the depths of the chessboard manor... a relatively secret and safe place."

"The apostle, did he come to the manor?"

Jilan said in surprise.

Mei Weng nodded.

"The 'Queen of Diamonds' sent down the other and has been waiting..."

She turned her head and looked at Jilan, and said in surprise:

"He said he wanted to see you, I don't know why."

"To see me?" Jilan was also surprised. "Isn't it because of the gambling fight?"

"Yes." Ms. Mei Weng said in a deep voice. "He contacted various forces this time, but only mentioned you by name."

The lady was puzzled.

She couldn't understand how a young man like Xue Xiao was known by the apostle and asked for a private meeting.

But no matter what, it was not a bad thing.

After all, there were countless mysterious people who had never seen an ascender in their lives, let alone an apostle who was standing at the end of the road.

If Xue Xiao could have even a little relationship with the apostle, it would be a great fortune and would benefit a lot.

Wow——

Ms. Mei Weng walked and suddenly waved her hand.

The originally open lawn in front of her suddenly "opened" a new area.

As if a book was opened, a lake view was revealed. The yellow-brown mudflats, quaint wooden houses, old-fashioned parasols and lush forests came into view.

There were two rattan lounge chairs on the shore, and iced drinks with lemon slices and glass straws on the small table.

On the left recliner, a figure in a white suit was sitting, lazily lying, silently admiring the beautiful scenery of the lake.

He had short golden hair, but from the back, one could feel his elegant and extraordinary temperament.

"Go, Mr. Blood Owl."

Ms. Meiweng stopped, turned sideways, and raised her hand to invite him.

"He is by the lake."

"Yes, ma'am."

Jilan pinched the brim of her hat, bowed slightly to the leader, and then took a step with her cane and walked into the new scene.

After he entered, Ms. Meiweng silently closed the entrance to the scene.

Jiji.

A few white wagtails flapped their wings and flew away, making crisp cries.

It also made the lakeside environment have an inexplicable quietness.

Jilan stepped on the sand and came to the lounge chair.

He glanced at the man's back, but the other party did not match the apostle he knew well. After turning on the "guidance prompt", the description revealed was the same as Menis at the beginning, just an ordinary person.

Jilan guessed that this might be some kind of concealing ability of the superior. If it is deliberately turned on, even the "guidance prompt" will be invalid.

So with doubts, he bowed.

"Jilan Ilos greets His Majesty."

"Sit."

The man did not turn his head back, but just raised his arm gently, and pointed at the lounge chair beside him with his white and slender index finger.

The voice was that of a mature woman, with a lazy tone.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Jilan took a deep breath, walked forward, and sat down obediently on the lounge chair.

He lowered his head and did not look at the other person's face deliberately, because it was very rude.

However, the other person spoke first.

In a rather lazy and smiling mature female voice, he said:

"What? Don't you dare look at me?"

"Your Majesty is an angel, and I am just a mortal. I dare not offend or blaspheme in the slightest..."

Jilan said in a deep voice.

"You are good at saying nice things."

The mature female voice suddenly came close, which scared Jilan.

The collar of the white suit appeared in his sight.

The bulging part propped up the lining, and even the two golden buttons seemed to be unable to restrain it, as if they were about to break free at any time.

Moreover, when they were close, Jilan also smelled a very special fragrance... It was a kind of fragrance mixed with something unknown, with a hint of sweetness and a hint of a strange taste like cantaloupe.

"Raise your head."

The mature female voice said again.

There was a hint of command in the tone.

Jilan took a deep breath, not daring to disobey, and raised his head to look at the other party.

Suddenly, a fair and delicate face came into Jilan's eyes.

The other party was not wearing any makeup, and her deep facial features were difficult to distinguish between male and female, more beautiful than any face Jilan had ever seen.

Beauty beyond gender.

But in those golden eyes, there was a hint of complexity that Jilan could not understand.

It was like remembrance, like thousands of words, and like...

Missing.

Jilan was startled by such a look.

"Don't you recognize me?"

The other party narrowed his eyes and said coldly.

Jilan was stunned at first.

Then in this flash, he thought of something, coughed, and whispered tentatively:

"Miss Sasha...?"

"Hmm?" The blond apostle immediately revealed a hint of danger. "Miss?"

"You are so polite, Mr. Gillan. You didn't call me that when you worked hard on me before..."

Hearing this, Gillan's heart was surging.

Like a stormy sea.

He had no idea what happened in the ten years that were skipped!

Skipping the plot, skipping life.

He could no longer distinguish between fantasy and reality.

Gillan felt that he was going to die.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly and tried his best to display his "perfect personality" to control his micro-expressions so as not to reveal any flaws.

"Sasha." Gillan's face gradually calmed down, and the original respectful expression disappeared, as if it was just a disguise. "Long time no see."

"I entered the withered garden by mistake in my dream before, and I didn't recognize you. I'm sorry."

"Do you think I will believe it?"

Sasha rolled her eyes.

She stood up directly from her recliner, then sat on Gillan's thighs, and put her arms around the young man's neck.

Then he lowered his head and said in a deep voice:

"Hundreds of years have passed, why haven't you ascended yet? Do you know how long I have been waiting for you... Are you deliberately avoiding me?"

"At the beginning, you clearly said that you didn't mind my identity as a twin, but since that separation, you have never cared about my whereabouts and life and death."

Sasha took a deep breath, as if she was having difficulty breathing due to excitement.

Her full body rose and fell in front of Jilan, squeezing, almost suffocating Jilan.

"You obviously mind..."

Sasha bit her lip and said faintly.

Jilan's spirituality moved at this moment, as if he was frantically warning as if disaster was imminent.

He forced himself to control the cold sweat on his forehead and squeezed out a smile.

"How could it be, Sasha."

Jilan said lightly.

"Whether you are the girl who was forced to embark on the path of a witch, or the angel who has now ascended to the throne of the Twin Kite, you are still you."

"I just forgot the passage of time in pursuit of the truth of alchemy...but I have not forgotten you."

"It's just that you have already surpassed the limits of the world, left me behind, and become a great man that I can only look up to...how should I face you?"

Jilan shook his head and fell silent.

Sasha was stunned after hearing this.

So...

My brother has not forgotten me.

It's just that I have been favored by the Twin Kite and have made rapid progress in the "Fire Sword Road", which has made my brother feel great pressure and inferiority.

He just feels that he is not worthy of me.

"Puff..." Sasha suddenly laughed.

This smile is like the blooming of autumn flowers, and it is also like the flapping of blue wings, which can make all things flourish and melt glaciers.

The joy on her lips cannot be suppressed.

The emotions that had been sealed and suppressed for hundreds of years also broke out uncontrollably.

Sasha couldn't help but reach out his hand, gently touching the forehead of the purple-eyed young man with his fingers, then sliding down to his ears and then to his cheeks.

Jilan only felt the cold fingertips and a slight itch.

He didn't dare to move.

He had to lower his eyes and keep his indifference.

Sasha reached out to his chest and gently opened his collar.

In an instant, a golden arrow mark emerged from Jilan's chest, emitting a dazzling light.

This light was reflected in Sasha's beautiful eyes, but it became the outline of a golden bow.

The curve at the corner of her mouth became even more.

"You really didn't erase my mark... Brother."

"..."

Jilan was silent.

The hundreds of years spanned by the timeline were only a few days in his perspective.

In a few days, he would not have enough time to erase the mark even if he wanted to. Not to mention, he didn't have the ability to do so.

At this time, Sasha leaned down, leaned close to Jilan's ear, and said in a gnashing tone:

"I have endured for 400 years, give it to me now!"

"No, you..."

Jilan's heart was beating so fast that it almost jumped out of his throat.

Sasha had already started to take off his shirt and belt buckle, and Jilan's mind was racing, thinking about countermeasures.

Soon, he said in a deep voice:

"Sasha, this is the headquarters of 'Night Rose'! 'Rose' Ms. Flamel Jaber can monitor everything in the Chessboard Manor at any time!"

"Small problem."

Sasha didn't even raise his head, one hand had already unbuckled the belt buckle, and the other hand was raised and swung.

Wow——

A golden light spot emerged, like a woven veil, covering the lakeside. This area seemed to be isolated and could not be peeped into by the outside world.

Retracting his hand, Sasha moved faster with both hands.

Jilan's heart and thighs felt a little cold, and he said again:

"Sasha, I just promoted to level 5, and my body is very fragile. I'm afraid I can't let you have fun..."

"It's okay."

Sasha has leaned down, speaking casually.

"I know the severity of the situation, and I won't play you badly."

"Sasha!" Jilan's face changed.

He took a breath, and then said in a deep voice:

"But you are not her, you are just a body of me..."

As soon as these words came out.

Sasha's movements froze and finally stopped.

She slowly raised her head and sat up straight.

The delicate and perfect face was flushed, but her eyes were extremely complicated.

The scene was silent for a while.

"You are right, brother."

Sasha took a deep breath, stared at the face of the purple-eyed young man, and licked his lips.

"This body is just me and you... You can only be mine, no one can touch you, even the earthly body I created."

"But I've really waited too long."

She came closer again, face to face with Jilan, only a few tenths of a centimeter apart.

The two pairs of eyes looked at each other for a moment.

"Ascend quickly, I don't want to wait any longer...Only when you ascend can you come into contact with my body, otherwise, even a simple eye contact will burn you with the magnetic field."

Jilan knew that if he gave a bad answer at this moment, there would be very terrible consequences.

He had to lower his eyes and spit out:

"Okay..."
