God Killer: Star Weaver

Ling Chen looked slowly in the direction of the voice. Although the voice was elegant and ethereal, it contained a trace of fatigue...

His eyes slowly focused, and the strange figure behind the pillar gradually became clear.

The woman was wearing a green gauze dress and a long skirt, with a thin belt around her waist. Her black hair, which was as long as her waist, was like a deep pool. Under the dim light of the tavern, it seemed to have a faint green light, and it was faintly flowing like the softest stars in the night sky.

She smiled and walked slowly towards Ling Chen. She was tall and light, like an elegant egret.

"Who are you?"

Ling Chen stared at her as she approached, watching her delicate and soft face, and her red lips, which seemed to always maintain a faint smile, as if she had seen through the turmoil of this world, but still treated every visitor warmly.

"My name is Qinghe." The woman smiled and answered softly.

When Qing He came in front of him, a breath like orchid fragrance came over him, and Ling Chen's brain was slightly dazed. Looking at her autumn water eyes, he didn't say anything, and instinctively blinked slightly, glanced at the spear sticking on the pillar, and rubbed his fingers with the ring at the same time, and the power of weaving stars slowly penetrated into his body and kept surging.

"I... have no hostility towards you." Qing He looked at Ling Chen gently, as if she noticed his vigilance.

"What are you doing hiding there?" Hearing her voice at a close distance, Ling Chen was also stunned, and then shook his head vigorously, looking into Qing He's eyes and asked.

"Huh?" Hearing Ling Chen's words, Qing He was slightly stunned, then smiled, and gently asked: "Didn't Director Yun tell you? Are you... the champion tonight?"

Ling Chen was startled, staring at Qing He's eyes, his mind kept rolling, and then he seemed to suddenly realize and stood up suddenly.

"Director Yun? The mysterious reward for the champion?... Could it be her?"

Qing He was also shocked by his actions. He frowned slightly and asked carefully, "I really have no hostility. That, I... The night is still long, little brother, you can go first..."

"Just call me Ling Chen." Ling Chen raised his head slightly and looked at Qing He, who was taller than him. He frowned and thought for a long time, then sighed deeply. The vigilance and hostility on his face disappeared, replaced by a warm smile.

"Ling Chen... What a good name."

Qing He looked at his smile, slightly startled, and then returned a smile, but it seemed to be as tired as before.

"Your name is pretty nice." Ling Chen smiled, looked at her autumn eyes, and suddenly asked: "Is this your room?"

"Hmm?" Hearing this, Qing He looked at Ling Chen in confusion, "It's... it's okay, Brother Ling Chen, you can go and rest first, I..."

"No, no." Ling Chen smiled and interrupted her, saying, "You go and do your own thing, I will naturally go to rest when I am tired, and your bed does look beautiful and comfortable, but I am dirty, I am afraid it will dirty your bed, so I will sit on the stool and rest against the wall."

"Ah?" Qing He heard this, and then hurriedly said: "This won't work, thank you Brother Ling Chen, but... but I also have my own difficulties, please rest on the bed..."

Qing He's tone even had a hint of pleading and anxiety at the end.

"Ah." Ling Chen looked at Qing He, seemed to understand something, sighed, and nodded immediately, "Okay..."

…………

Late at night, the wind blew into the room from the skylight of the attic, and the candlelight kept jumping.

Ling Chen sat cross-legged on the soft bed, closed his eyes, and didn't know what he was thinking.

Qing He had taken off her green dress, revealing her delicate skin like the snow on the snowy mountain. She had a natural luster without makeup, and exuded an almost transparent sense of purity. She slowly walked to the window and closed it. Then she moved her lotus steps slightly and gently extinguished the candlelight. Suddenly, the whole room darkened, and only the silver moonlight could be seen flowing on the ground.

After doing all this, Qing He paused for a while, looking at the motionless figure of the young man on the bed in the dark, sighed softly, and slowly walked towards him.

"..."

The orchid-like breath came, and although Ling Chen closed his eyes, he already knew that Qing He had slowly lay down beside him.

"Why is she... also lying here?"

Smelling this breath, Ling Chen closed his eyes, his face changed slightly, and then the thought flashed through his mind quickly, and suddenly he suddenly realized.

"So that's how it is. I understand. These people in the tavern are really not good people! They locked people here to attract those orcs... It's really a 'good trick'." Ling Chen finally understood why this so-called "mysterious reward" was so attractive to those drinkers, and immediately cursed them in his heart.

"Forget it, I'll go and let her have a good night's rest."

Frowning slightly, Ling Chen was about to leave when suddenly a soft swallowing sound came from behind:

"Please don't leave, little brother, even if you don't want to, just sit next to me..."

"Please, don't leave here. They are watching. If you leave, they will come and beat me tomorrow..."

"Them?" Ling Chen was startled when he heard the soft words with a hint of pleading, and then he remembered that they should refer to the two adjudicators.

"Hmph, it seems that this room is also under their surveillance..."

With another sneer in his heart, Ling Chen sighed softly and sat down cross-legged again.

He said no more. Silence is the best way to deal with surveillance.

…

Time passed quietly, and neither of them spoke, as if they were waiting for something.

"Ling Chen, it's late at night, you can lie down and have a good rest."

I don't know how long it took, Qing He bit his red lips, looked at Ling Chen who was sitting motionless next to him, and said softly.

"Thank you, I'm not tired." Ling Chen still closed his eyes, and after a while he suddenly asked: "Qinghe, how long have you been here?"

"Huh?" Hearing this, Qinghe was startled, sighed, and replied, "It's been a long time, so long that I don't even remember it... I was brought here when I was very young, and then..."

"Were you born in Border College?" Ling Chen interrupted her.

"Yes." Qinghe nodded and spoke in a weak voice, "As soon as I was born, my parents were taken away by the Judgment Organization. Before I came to this tavern, I was raised by my grandfather. of…"

"..."

Hearing this, Ling Chen's heart trembled hard, and his body also trembled. The remaining star-weaving power in the body also fluctuated severely.

"What's wrong with you, Ling Chen?" Although he couldn't see Ling Chen's movements in the darkness, Qing He seemed to notice the strangeness in Ling Chen's aura and quickly sat up and asked.

"No, it's nothing. Ahem, how long has it been since you last seen your grandpa?" Ling Chen coughed and said slowly. He had already guessed that the Qing Cang whom he seemed to have killed before was probably the grandfather of this poor girl!

However, when Qinghe heard these words, he fell silent.

Ling Chen, who sensed something was wrong, lowered his head and didn't ask any more questions. He could feel the inner turmoil of the girl next to him.

But he knew that if he turned his head at this moment, the waves would be forcibly suppressed by her in an instant, and she would respond to him with the best and most beautiful smile.

"I don't know if my guess is right, it seems..."

Ling Chen sighed softly in his heart, sat cross-legged on the bed, closed his eyes, and muttered slowly in his heart. The perception hidden in every part of his body immediately began to flow along his meridians, filling his entire body in an instant.

"Perception, entering the body."

The perception flowed and finally converged towards his eyes. Suddenly, Ling Chen's eyes were covered with strong perception. Although the surrounding area was dark, he could vaguely see his surroundings.

"Eye of Perception." This was a wonderful effect that Ling Chen discovered when he realized that he could move his perception among the meridians in his body.

The eyes covered by perception have the ability to see the surroundings clearly even in the dark night. Of course, that's all. Areas that are blocked from sight are also invisible.

If you want to ignore all obstructions and perceive all the information in the entire room, you still have to spread your perception outside and wrap the entire room, but this is too risky. After all, the arbiter is right next to you.

Turning his eyes lightly with perception, Ling Chen looked at the surrounding environment, and finally stopped at the face of Qing He lying next to him. At this moment, she was only wearing simple pajamas, and her white jade-like skin was coated with The moonlight is even more transparent.

The moon beauty is even more beautiful, but there are already two lines of clear tears on her face.

"really…"

Looking at the two lines of clear tears that slightly reflected the silver light, Ling Chen couldn't help but feel his heart tighten.

Qinghe bit her lips tightly, trying not to whimper, then quietly raised her jade hand to wipe away the tears on her cheeks...
