Ye Cheng was startled when he heard this. He hurriedly leaned over to look at the words on the booklet. When he saw the Thousand-Year Bone-Forging Milk, his pupils shrank slightly.

"There are very few items that can temper one's body and bones, let alone a thousand-year one."

Li Jinzhi nodded. He turned his head to look at the head that was very close to him. Thinking of his guess just now, he stepped back unnaturally.

Ye Cheng felt the other party's retreat. Under his lowered eyelids, his red pupils couldn't help but darken slightly. The disappointment and some unwillingness in his heart merged together to form an indescribable emotion.

Li Jinzhi could clearly feel the stiffness of the person beside him. He saw that the other party maintained his original posture with his eyelids lowered, and the book had been shifted to the side when he retreated, so the other party's gaze did not land on the book at all.

This kind of rigidity brought a slight sense of loneliness to the other party.

Li Jinzhi paused. In the end, he still couldn't hold back the sourness in his heart. He clenched his fingers tightly and asked in a somewhat suppressed voice, "Ye Cheng, do you have someone you like?" His voice was extremely soft. If he didn't add the name, it would seem more like he was muttering to himself.

Ye Cheng was stunned. He suddenly looked up. The silver-haired man was reflected in his dark red pupils. He only heard him murmur back, "Yes." Without hesitation, his tone was firm.

Li Jinzhi pursed his dry lips. The corners of his mouth curled up unnaturally. "How much do you like him?"

He knew that once that layer of window paper was pierced through, it would be impossible to return to the time when he knew nothing. There were only two paths in front of him.

Accept.

Or reject.

When Ye Cheng heard Li Jinzhi's question, he didn't answer immediately. He just lowered his eyelids, as if thinking about how to express his feelings. When he opened his mouth again, his tone was gentle and affectionate. "Only him." It wasn't words of love. Just four short words, but it contained all the longing and attachment.

When Li Jinzhi heard these four words, the corners of his eyes couldn't help but feel a little sour. Wasn't he also only having the other party?

Ever since he came to this place and entered this cultivation world, whether it was in a dangerous situation or in a secret place to kill insects, he had always been accompanied by the other party. If there had to be another person, he might not be willing.

But could such feelings be regarded as love?

How could his brotherly feelings for Ye Cheng be confused with love?

He didn't know.

Ye Cheng's eyelids were still lowered as he said slowly, "I grew up with him, went through hardships with him, trained with him, and ventured into the world with him. When I placed all my expectations, my attention, my attachment, and my thoughts on him, I was not satisfied.

I want more. I want to be recognized by the Heavenly Axiom. I want to accompany you in a proper way. I want to have … "Chi Tong suddenly raised his head and stared intently at Li Jinzhi's pupils." Is it too much? "

Li Jinzhi stared at the other party's bloodshot eyes and subconsciously shook his head. He replied in a low voice, "Not at all." As soon as he said that, he carefully understood the other party's words, but his heart was swollen with sourness.

When he first met Ye Cheng, the other party was still a young man with pure and kind eyes. But it was this young man who saved him from danger in the icy water, saved him from the jaws of a ghost in the secret realm, and gave him the only Bone-growing Grass after he fell into the sea. However, he was so seriously injured that he could not even maintain his human form.

Later on, their situation gradually improved, but the other party never had the thought of leaving. They fought enemies together, escaped together, and fought in the insect cave together.

The more Li Jinzhi thought about it, the more anxious his face became.

It seemed that after coming here, all his memories, all his concerns, and all his fetters were related to Ye Cheng.

Even the one and a half years when they didn't contact each other, the belief that supported his day after day cultivation was also related to Ye Cheng.

Unknowingly, the other party had become so important in his heart?

Looking down at Ye Cheng who was staring at him, Li Jinzhi's breathing quickened slightly. The other party was the real cold-blooded villain in the original work. He slaughtered the Li family, assisted Moksha in the battle, and caused the Immortal Sect to suffer a great defeat. Finally, he disappeared secretly at the beginning of the Guangyuan Desert map's opening. Finally, he appeared beside the male protagonist and stole the male protagonist's bloodline.

But now, the other party said that he was the only one.

Then what if he didn't exist?

Would the other party become the cold-blooded villain in the original work who would do anything to achieve his goals?

Must the male protagonist part ways with the villain, even if it was for such a reason and in such a way?

After hearing Li Jinzhi's answer, Ye Cheng's eyes lit up. After waiting quietly for a while, his gaze became more and more aggrieved. Finally, his red eyes were slightly watery. "Then do you think he will agree?"

Li Jinzhi closed his somewhat dry eyes. His heart softened slightly. Perhaps in his heart, Ye Cheng was no longer the same to him. "I don't know."

He didn't know what went wrong. He didn't know if he could adapt to the change in his relationship with Ye Cheng.

After all, if he married a male wife, it was a very serious problem whether he could still have a normal erection. After all, it was a little difficult for him to face soft girls now.

Thinking of the complete trust between the two of them, thinking of the assets they both owned, and then thinking of how he didn't want Ye Cheng to find a Dao companion, and how he had Ye Cheng, it seemed that the idea of finding a Dao companion had never appeared.

If he didn't have no feelings for Ye Cheng in his heart, perhaps it wouldn't be so difficult to accept slowly trying to change his identity.

Li Jinzhi looked up and saw Ye Cheng's pitiful little eyes. His heart softened a little. He raised his hand to touch Ye Cheng's head and sighed resignedly. "Maybe he needs some time."

Ye Cheng felt the chill on his head. His eyes lit up slightly as he rubbed his palm. His face was full of satisfaction. "En." I have plenty of time.

Seeing Ye Cheng's expression, Li Jinzhi withdrew his hand a little awkwardly. He bent down to pick up the booklet that had fallen to the ground. With a serious face, he asked, "Then let's choose the Ten Thousand Clouds Sect?"

Ye Cheng moved to his side and rested his chin on Li Jinzhi's shoulder. "En, I'll listen to you."

"…" Li Jinzhi's hand that was holding the booklet trembled imperceptibly. He resisted the urge to tear the booklet from his body and pretended to be calm as he stood up and walked towards the bed. "Then I'll adjust tonight and come out tomorrow." The gaze behind him was like a thorn in his back. Li Jinzhi's heart collapsed.

Ye Cheng had been with Li Jinzhi for so long. If he didn't even know what Li Jinzhi couldn't do about it, then he really had lived in vain.

Ye Yu slowly straightened his body when he saw the other party's fleeing figure and the way he walked with the same hands and feet. His aggrieved expression had yet to fade away, and a determined smile had already appeared on his beautiful jade-like face.

Since he was sure that Ye Cheng didn't have no feelings for him, since Ye Cheng wasn't willing to abandon him and leave, since his position in Ye Cheng's heart wasn't lower than his, then he no longer had any scruples.

The next morning, a red and white streak of light flew out from the direction of Huiyan City. Its speed was incomparably fast. It directly passed some slower streaks of light and headed towards the northwest.

In the streak of light, Li Jinzhi's expression was serious. It seemed that he was completely immersed in flying, but his pupils were slightly scattered. It was obvious that he was absent-minded.

Beside him, Ye Cheng had a jade slip placed on his forehead. It seemed that he was seriously looking for the way.

The two of them were very close to each other. The wide sleeves of their robes naturally hung down, covering their hands that were holding each other's.

"The two of you are working together to control the streak of light. Its speed is really fast." Ye Cheng glanced at the person beside him and praised.
