She felt itchy when he touched her face, and scratched it.

Wait….

She touched her face for a while, took out a mirror, and was shocked. Where was the big copper scar on her face?

“Where is my scar?” Because she was too shocked, she subconsciously turned her head to ask Sima Jiao.

This scar was a mark she had since she came to this world. Both Father Shi and her brother said it was caused by Sima. His spirit fire was special, and the injuries he made could not be dealt with by other methods. So she could only keep it forever. Otherwise such a scar, in the eyes of the immortal cultivator, was very easy to heal.

Shi Yan was accustomed to the existence of this scar. Occasionally, she looked in the mirror and covered the scar with her hands. She would marvel at the beauty of this body, but the existence of the scar did make her feel uncomfortable. Looking at her face, she felt a little anxious inexplicably, just like dreaming about how she was going to rush for an exam, but encountered things in the middle of the time and felt that she was going to fail the exam.

In the end, she didn’t know what was wrong, and this little scar disappeared. Did Sima Jiao cure it after she fell asleep?

Sima Jiao looked at her with a gloomy look in his eyes, as if thinking of something difficult to accept. He raised his hand and took Liao Tingyan over, rubbing his thumb against the place where there was a small scar on her face.

Shi Yan’s scalp tightened.

Sima Jiao covered the back of her head, and stared at her face. The scar was gone. There was still a faint red, and it would probably disappear soon.

Sima Jiao didn’t want to recall that day ten years ago.

He was born alone. He had never considered others for a long time. For Liao Tingyan, he had exhausted all his care.

But he was too confident in himself. He felt that Shi Qianli couldn’t find his trace. He hid Liao Tingyan very well, and made such a big movement in the inner palace at that time, enough to attract all eyes. Liao Tingyan was in Fenghua City, naturally no one would notice her, and she would not be in danger at all.

As arrogant as him, as high as him, how could he consider “if there is any chance”?

When he gave Liao Tingyan the defensive magic tool, he told her that even if she was attacked for a long time, it would not be broken. It was enough to protect her, but he had not considered that if it was his own power, it could immediately break through the defense—he never thought that Liao Tingyan would be hurt because of him.

But in fact, it was his power and Sima Shi’s power that caused her to suffer a disaster.

Later, in the process of searching for Liao Tingyan, he thought, there was also a way to put one’s soul into life. Even if a person was dead, he could resurrect her again, and nothing would change.

Sima Jiao didn’t care much about life, not to mention he had the resurrection method in his hands, and he did not have any fear of death.

But in the past few years, he could not find Liao Tingyan, and finally realized that death was not terrible but the parting brought by it.

Ten years ago, he stepped on the scorched earth, and his heart was filled with anger and various fierce emotions. He couldn’t think of other things for a while. Later in the years, he slowly developed a feeling of fear’ in his heart. The fear of losing was something he had never had before.

But with his pride, he couldn’t admit that he was afraid of anything. He just seemed a little more moody.

Shi Yan: There seems to be a strange and painful atmosphere in the air now! Oops, looking at his expression, I think he remembers some bad memories. Now that they are looking at each other like this. Generally speaking, they will definitely kiss next, f**k, she dared not!

Sima Jiao stroked her face and said, “Don’t make me laugh.”

Shi Yan: “Huh?” I feel wronged, I didn’t! What did I do to make you laugh?

Sima Jiao touched the part of her face again, got up, and walked out directly.

Shi Yan sighed: I don’t know why the cat suddenly came, or why he suddenly turned his head and left.

But there was a lot of food in front of her, which was great. So she didn’t waste time.

She ate the fruit that she had always wanted, and tasted other dishes. She felt that the taste of everything in Winter Castle was really wild. The traditional blind chicken was stir-fried and stewed. The ingredients were different but the cooking method was exactly the same. No innovation. In this Demon Realm, there were only sauced ducks imported from the Immortal Realm that still had a little taste.

According to previous habits, after she had eaten, she found a place to rest. There used to be a canopy under the tree in the back garden of the Rouge Terrace, or under the shade of the roof of the Shi house. But where should she sleep here?

Shi Yan hesitated to enter the previous hall and found that there was no one in the room. There were two places to sleep, one big bed and one couch.

She did not hesitate to choose the long couch, because the big bed was too tidy, and the couch looked softer. The sleek curve fit her head, and the pillows were also in line with her aesthetics. It made her feel sleepy.

She laid down, feeling very comfortable, and let out a long sigh of relief. It was so suitable. It aligned with a groove and she could sink into it.

Sitting by the window behind the screen, Sima Jiao saw Shi Yan choosing the couch. That was what he messed up just now. He dropped a few more pillows. Liao Tingyan used to lie in that kind of place. She wanted to lie down when she saw it.

Shi Yan soon fell asleep. After she was asleep, Sima Jiao came to her, sat on the couch, raised her ankle, and buckled an anklet.

He had prepared this new weapon for a long time, and now he could finally give it to her.
