Chapter 186: I Don''t Love You Anymore
Han Ming went to find Mairon specifically in order to be able to rush back to Borderland City as soon as possible.
After explaining his purpose and making his request,
Mairon agreed to Han Ming''s request without hesitation and immediately dispatched a military airship that was twice as fast as an ordinary airship.
Han Ming didn''t have the intention to stay for long either. After chatting with Mairon for a few words, he embarked on the journey back to Borderland City.
It was he who invited those masters to gather in Borderland City two months later.
This time was drawing near.
If he wasn''t there at that time, it would be too inappropriate.
Three days later, Han Ming returned to Borderland City again.
During the flight on the airship, his body had already begun to change. Han Ming rolled painfully on the ground, looking at his skin splitting inch by inch, knowing that he was going to turn back into a man, he quickly drank a potion, and this change gradually stopped.
Two days later, Han Ming turned into a woman''s appearance again.
Fortunately, this military airship was prepared by Mairon for Han Ming alone. Otherwise, if there were other people, they might have discovered Han Ming''s abnormality.
"I hope they have already left."
Han Ming stood outside the inn, hesitating for a moment.
"Hey! Miss Elo! You''re back!"
Li Chengfeng strode out of the inn entrance, looking at Han Ming happily.
Han Ming forced a smile and said, "Why haven''t you left yet? What are you staying here for?"
Li Chengfeng said in confusion, "How can I leave? I still don''t know where my third brother is. Only you know what he''s doing now. If I leave, where will I find my third brother in the future?"
Han Ming suddenly realized, "Hehe, that''s right. Look at my memory."
Han Ming''s gaze swept to behind Li Chengfeng and met Ku Luo''s eyes.
"Hello. Nice to see you again."
Han Ming nodded and smiled at Ku Luo, then quickly shifted his gaze away.
"Come on, let''s go in."
Han Ming knew that Li Chengfeng would definitely not leave him for the time being. He must still be waiting to inquire about his whereabouts, and now he simply couldn''t tell him that he was Han Ming. It wasn''t realistic to make up a place casually. He could only let him follow himself.
"Li Chengfeng, what''s your strength now?"
Han Ming looked at Li Chengfeng. He had intentionally tried to probe Li Chengfeng''s strength twice when they met, but to no avail. He must have used some method to conceal his strength.
Li Chengfeng shook his head with a smile, unwilling to say more.
Han Ming''s current identity also made it inconvenient to force him.
"If you insist on following me, then you might as well join our team. In another two days, a group of people will come here to meet me. At that time, I plan to form a mercenary group."
Han Ming lowered his head to eat, stealing a glance at Ku Luo inadvertently, and said to Li Chengfeng.
"Hmm? Mercenary group? What for?"
Han Ming considered for a moment and said, "As you know, the demon army has already invaded our human world and has also occupied the Mont Empire. I plan to form my own mercenary group, mainly to disrupt the demon army. For example, intercept their caravans transporting magic crystals, or launch a surprise attack on one of their more important strongholds. In short, as long as it can stop them from invading our human world, I''ll do anything."
Hearing this, Li Chengfeng''s face immediately darkened, and his eyes were filled with indelible hatred.
When he was in the War God Ruins in the Demon Beast Forest, he had a vague sense of unease in his heart. So shortly after returning from the Demon Beast Forest, he rushed to Borderland City as soon as possible, but at that time, Borderland City was already under the control of the demon army.
After making some inquiries, he learned with great grief that all his family members had been slaughtered by the demon soldiers.
"I''ll join!"
Li Chengfeng''s voice was terrifyingly low.
Seeing Li Chengfeng like this, Han Ming felt extremely distressed himself.
Mentioning the demon army, Li Chengfeng''s mood was bad all day.
Evening.
Han Ming sat quietly in his room, looking at the night view outside the window.
Just a few walls away from him was the lover he missed day and night, and also his greatest enemy.
Han Ming''s heart was in turmoil.
He tried to meditate and enter the cultivation state, but several times he couldn''t concentrate. What filled his heart, what he was concerned about, and what emerged in his mind were all Ku Luo''s figure.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Han Ming''s room door was knocked on.
"Who?"
Han Ming asked warily.
"It''s me..."
Hearing the reply, Han Ming''s body jolted violently.
It was Ku Luo.
Gently opening the room door, Han Ming looked at the woman in front of him expressionlessly and asked, "What''s the matter?"
"Can I come in?"
Love this novel? Read it on Royal Road to ensure the author gets credit.
Ku Luo said softly.
Looking at Ku Luo from such a close distance, Han Ming could feel a kind of indescribable sadness on this thin woman. This feeling made Han Ming''s heart ache unbearably.
"Come in."
Han Ming stepped aside.
Ku Luo walked gently into Han Ming''s room and looked around.
"Just speak."
Han Ming stood quietly behind Ku Luo, looking at this woman who broke his heart.
Ku Luo suddenly turned around, stared intently at Han Ming''s eyes, and said word by word, "You know me!"
Han Ming''s heart trembled, and he replied calmly, "Why do you say so?"
Ku Luo stepped closer to Han Ming, staring straight into his eyes, her face already darkening.
"I can feel it from the way you look at me. Tell me, what''s your purpose in approaching us! I know you must know Han Ming!"
Han Ming was suddenly startled. His mind raced. This woman was still so smart. Just from the few times he had secretly glanced at her, she could guess to this extent.
Why did she have to be so smart? Wouldn''t it be better to be a bit confused?
What should he say?
Han Ming pondered for a moment and sighed, "Yes, I know him. Even if you hadn''t come to find me, I would have come to find you."
"Really? So you really know him! I knew it, I knew it! Tell me quickly, is he okay now?" Ku Luo''s tears couldn''t stop flowing.
Looking at Ku Luo''s appearance, Han Ming felt as if his heart was being wrenched: "Don''t you want to know where he is?"
Ku Luo shook her head painfully: "No, I can''t see him now."
Han Ming didn''t know what Ku Luo meant by saying this, but this was exactly what he hoped for most.
He gritted his teeth and said cruelly, "He said that he doesn''t love you anymore. He told you to leave, to go away! The farther the better!"
Ku Luo''s body jolted. She covered her mouth with her hand, looking at Han Ming incredulously, and big tears fell down.
"Nonsense! You''re lying! I don''t believe it! You must be deceiving me! Why do you have to deceive me!!"
Ku Luo shook Han Ming''s arm hysterically.
"Believe it or not, it''s up to you. Anyway, that''s what he told me. You don''t need to ask anything else. I don''t know anything either. If there''s nothing else, please leave."
Han Ming couldn''t bear to look into Ku Luo''s eyes and turned his head to one side.
"Are you lying to me?"
Ku Luo still had the last glimmer of hope and asked persistently.
After a long time, seeing that Han Ming didn''t turn his head back,
Ku Luo couldn''t hold on any longer. Covering her mouth, she ran out of Han Ming''s room.
The night breeze turned cool.
Han Ming flipped onto the roof.
He saw Ku Luo sitting on the eaves not far away, staring blankly at the night sky.
"Can''t you sleep either?"
Li Chengfeng asked without turning his head.
Han Ming nodded. He knew that Li Chengfeng was missing his family at this time and felt very bad himself.
"Sigh..."
Han Ming sighed deeply and sat down beside Li Chengfeng.
The two sat opposite each other in silence, each lost in their own thoughts.
Whoosh!
A sound of breaking through the air came from the night sky.
This sound immediately startled the two preoccupied men.
They saw a white figure rushing out of the window of the inn below.
"Miss Ku Luo?"
"Is it her?"
Han Ming and Li Chengfeng were both stunned.
The two exchanged glances and chased after her.
On the streets late at night, Ku Luo was running wildly towards the outskirts, while Han Ming and Li Chengfeng followed closely behind.
"Miss Elo, did you notice? Ku Luo... she seems to be acting strangely!"
Li Chengfeng suddenly remembered the situation when Ku Luo was on the roof holding the wooden carving that night. He had an ominous premonition.
At that time, Ku Luo''s entire aura had completely changed. Her eyes had turned completely blood red, and even her expression and aura had undergone earth-shattering changes. Standing beside her, Li Chengfeng could feel a surging killing intent. That kind of killing intent made him terrified even when he recalled it.
And now, Ku Luo was exuding such killing intent.
Han Ming also frowned deeply and said in a low voice, "Hmm. Let''s follow her and see."
The two chased Ku Luo out of Borderland City.
"Ah!!!...!!"
In the wilderness, Ku Luo suddenly let out a heart-wrenching roar ahead of the two.
This sound was no longer as pleasant as the sound of spring water tinkling in the past, but sounded like the screech of some wild beast.
"Miss Ku Luo!"
Li Chengfeng was anxious, looking at Ku Luo standing blankly in the wilderness, worried about her safety, wanting to rush forward,
"Don''t go over yet!"
Han Ming quickly grabbed Li Chengfeng.
The current Ku Luo clearly looked abnormal. Han Ming had some understanding of Ku Luo''s strength. On that day, under the siege of the demon army, Ku Luo could fight against two War Kings alone without falling behind. With such strong strength, even if Li Chengfeng had made great progress in strength over the years, he was probably no match for Ku Luo. Going over would mean death.
