Villain Rescue System - Chapter 191

Li didn’t know what she was thinking at the moment, half of his body was soaked in the water.

That body was not like his, any sense of touch could be clearly reflected to the brain through the nerves.

The coldness from the waist down cleared his mind a little.

What did he come to the abyss for?

He began to recall his thoughts when he was in the God Realm, but he didn’t find the answer.

He seemed to think of her, thought for a long time, and then came.

“…”

Li stared at the water for a few seconds, and suddenly plunged into it.

He moved too violently and screamed.

Wen Long, who watched the whole scene, was speechless. She didn’t understand what happened, so she rushed over.

The current was fast, but fortunately it was not deep.

Wen Long ran to the shore, and before she reached out to grab him, Li stood.

She breathed a sigh of relief, and asked, “What are you doing?”

Li looked at her puzzled, “I want to wash my face and hair, so it’s faster.”

“…”

Wen Long gritted her teeth lightly, wanting to punch him.

“Don’t do such a worrying thing.”

Li’s eyeballs moved, and then he realized that his actions made her worry.

“Okay.”

He was quite easy to talk to…

Wen Long raised the corners of her lips, and that little emotion disappeared immediately.

“Do you still remember where the cave I live in is?”

Li nodded.

“Just remember. During the time you live in the abyss, we are considered neighbors.”

“If you need any help, you can come to me.”

Neighbor…

Li had heard that term before, but he didn’t expect that he would also have a neighbor one day.

His gaze turned to Wen Long’s face.

Those clean purple pupils somehow made him unable to move his eyes away.

The Celestial Clan once referred to their eyes’ color as the flame from hell.

Hellfire, was it so beautiful?

 *

Wen Long did not expect that her new neighbor would live in the abyss for several months.

Except for occasionally disappearing suddenly on a certain day, he could be seen almost all the time.

She liked having such a neighbor in the abyss, who had a good temper and was easy to talk to.

It was just that he didn’t seem to care much about finding his friend—she had hardly seen Li go to the friend he mentioned.

Every time she asked about that, Li’s eyes were always evasive.

His expression was always calm, but almost all the thoughts in his head were clear in his eyes, which could be understood at a glance.

Wen Long guessed that his friend should not be in the abyss, or maybe he didn’t have any so-called friends at all.

As for why Li still stayed there, she didn’t care about the reason.

People always had secrets, but Li had even more secrets. She didn’t even know his race.

It didn’t matter if there was one more.

And Li also didn’t know why he stayed in the abyss for so long.

Every day, he followed Wen Long and led a group of monsters to do some meaningless things aimlessly, even after Wen Long’s wing was completely healed, he still didn’t leave.

“I want to go to the human world,” Wen Long sat on his left, and the wing on her right moved from time to time.

“For about two weeks.”

Li nodded expressionlessly.

Two weeks seemed like a long time.

“The wounds on my wing weren’t healed before, so I couldn’t hide it, so I have been dragging on until now.”

Wen Long shook her leg, “In the future, I should often go to the human world.”

Hearing her talk about the wound, Li unconsciously looked at her right wing.

The incision was completely invisible, and like other parts of the wing, it was covered with a layer of soft black down.

Inexplicably, Li thought of the tears she dripped on the back of his hand.

There was an unspeakable uneasiness that wrapped him tightly…

“Li Yan.”

Li suddenly returned to his senses.

Wen Long was sitting next to him, holding back for more than a month and finally couldn’t help but say, “You always keep looking at my wing.”

“…Really?”

Wen Long pursed her lips, “It makes me uncomfortable.”

After all it was a broken wing, and she felt awkward when someone stared at her flaws.

Li’s calm expression instantly cracked, “Sorry, sorry…”

He apologized incoherently, “I’m sorry… I didn’t mean to look at it.”

He acted too flustered, which made Wen Long a little embarrassed.

“It’s okay.”

She felt that Li was probably curious about the wound on her right wing, and it was difficult to ask, so he kept staring at it. 

Wen Long then explained, “I ran to heaven two months ago, and by chance I met the God of the Celestial Clan. He cut off my wing.”

“I thought I would die in heaven…” Wen Long recalled the scene of that day and lowered her eyes.

She was lucky to only lose one wing on being discovered by God.

But feeling lucky was one thing, she still harbored a hatred for God.

Li’s face suddenly turned pale. 

“…I’m sorry,” he didn’t dare to put his gaze on Wen Long, and just murmured in a low voice.

Wen Long thought he apologized for what happened just now, and said with a smile, “It’s okay.”

Li lowered his eyes and didn’t answer.

Wen Long said that she was going to the human world for two weeks, and she did come back after two weeks.

It was just that she only stayed in the abyss for a few days before leaving again.

After going back and forth, Li couldn’t stay still.

He originally thought that the abyss was more interesting than his temple, so he always wanted to stay there… After Wen Long left, he got along with the group of monsters every day, but felt that the abyss was no different from his temple.

It was boring as well.

He waited very anxiously, until Wen Long came back a month later.

“How long are you going to stay this time?”

Wen Long felt something strange. 

As if he had been waiting for her in the abyss for a long time…

After putting away those messy thoughts, she replied, “For a long time.”
