The Deadly Hitwoman: The Heiress's Special Abilities

Chapter 590: Chapter 590: Tears of the Merfolk Beneath Jingluo Lake (Part 15)

Han Jing blinked and turned to look at Lian Xichen.

Lian Xichen stared quietly into the air, motionless, just like when the previous scene had not ended, maintaining that posture, as if he were an old monk in meditation, with no reaction at all.

Han Jing took two steps to his side, and waved a hand in front of his eyes: ”Big brother?”

Lian Xichen showed no response.

Han Jing waved again, calling out, ”Big brother?”

Only then did Lian Xichen return to his senses: ”Hmm?”

”Although it might just be a coincidence... but, big brother, since we’ve already arrived here and seen Ting Luo’s dream, we can’t just leave like this, right? She’s been asleep for a thousand years, always waiting for someone to awaken her and give her a new life, so... big brother, should we give it a try?” Han Jing tentatively suggested.

Perhaps it was her accumulated luck over several lifetimes finally coming to fruition, because the man in Ting Luo’s dream looked exactly like Lian Xichen, otherwise, even if she had found this place and knew how to awaken Ting Luo, she would still be helpless.

Lian Xichen, facing Han Jing’s expectant gaze, couldn’t help but twitch his eye corner.

Then he turned to look at Ting Luo in the lake.

He admitted that he was also moved by that dream; a thousand years of solitary slumber, that longing, pained the heart. But... he really wasn’t the man in her dream.

Even if they looked identical, there were no similarities between them.

If it were him, he would absolutely not let his beloved endure such loneliness far from home; without the ability to promise her a lifetime, he would not easily make a promise. Knowing that Ting Luo came from the Merfolk Clan of the deep sea, a foreign clan, lacking human nature, not understanding human emotions, he still took her to the Spirit Cultivation Realm, a place of cold human hearts and survival of the fittest... Is this love?

Lian Xichen completely disagreed with such sentiments.

If it were him, he would never act this way.

So he was sure that he had nothing to do with that man, and he couldn’t be the one to awaken Ting Luo.

So... Lian Xichen shook his head at Han Jing.

”The person she’s waiting for couldn’t possibly be me.” Lian Xichen was very firm and certain; that person would absolutely not be him.

Han Jing...

”Big brother, don’t you think Ting Luo is pitiful?” Han Jing felt that trying to convince someone as principled as Lian Xichen was not an easy task. It would have been much better if it were Lan Ling, whose behavior was indiscriminate regardless of gender.

Lian Xichen nodded slightly, indeed pitiful, but no matter how pitiful she was, he was powerless, as he was not the person involved.

Han Jing continued to persuade, ”So, big brother, just think about poor Ting Luo, who has slept at the bottom of this dark lake for so many years. Granted, it was her choice back then, but she came from the deep sea and doesn’t understand human complexities, which is why she made such extreme and desperate choices. If we awaken her, and she suddenly has many friends, sees that the world is still very beautiful, maybe she’ll find new happiness. Even if she doesn’t, she can return to the sea and reunite with her clan. Didn’t she say that once she wakes up, she will erase past memories and start afresh? You could just help this pitiful girl, don’t you think?”
