Chapter 1943 Raw 2043 : An Answer

Like me? Xiao Chen thought in his heart, feeling a little depressed. If it is like me, then why not just completely paint me?

“Wait there. Don’t move.”

Liu Ruyun rushed out, then returned quickly with a brush in hand.

She squinted at Xiao Chen, looking at him in detail as she drew him, filling in that blank space with a face.

Her painting skills were not that good, but she could still do a simple illustration.

Soon, facial features appeared on the outline, slowly becoming clearer.

Now, the person in the painting had delicate facial features. He looked very handsome with a certain calm and elegance on his face.

“It is very similar, practically identical,” Liu Ruyun muttered to herself, finding this inconceivable after she completed the painting. At first, she only felt that there were some similarities, so she casually did this.

Unexpectedly, after she completed the painting, it looked exactly the same as Xiao Chen; there was not a single difference to be found.

Liu Ruyun rubbed her chin in thought, unable to figure this out, as she muttered to herself, “Could it really be just a coincidence?”

“Let me see.”

The shock in Xiao Chen’s heart was no lesser than Liu Ruyun’s. When he took the painting and looked at it, he frowned heavily.

What’s going on?

He could not understand at all. Was this just a coincidence, or did Liu Ruyue forget what he looked like?

It’s impossible. Xiao Chen did not believe that Liu Ruyue would forget him.

Furthermore, with the memory of a cultivator, as long as one wanted to recall someone, one would be able to see that person clearly in their mind with just a slight thought.

“Earlier, you said that your elder sister frequently drew this. However, she only drew the outline but never the features?”

“Yes! As far as I can remember, she was already painting this when I was young. I’d see her trying hard to recall something, but she still could not draw the face. Let me see…there have to be at least ten thousand of these paintings,” Liu Ruyun answered honestly, not hiding anything.

This is strange. Xiao Chen closed the painting, his emotions chaotic. No matter how hard he thought about it, he could not understand.

When it came to Liu Ruyue, his normally calm mind had difficulty functioning properly.

Xiao Chen’s gaze shifted to Liu Ruyun. I have to find out more from her. I still have too little information. If I have more, perhaps it will be easier to figure out what’s going on.

“Why are you looking at me like that?” Liu Ruyun asked with her head lowered. She felt somewhat uncomfortable with how Xiao Chen was staring at her.

“How much do you know about your elder sister?”

“You want to find out more about my elder sister? Hehe! She practically watched me grow up. So how much do you think I know about her? However, for me to tell you…”

When Liu Ruyun heard that Xiao Chen wanted to know more about Liu Ruyue, a crafty look flashed in her eyes as she kept Xiao Chen in suspense.

To think that this girl wants to discuss conditions with me!

Xiao Chen did not argue his way out. “What do I have to do for you to tell me?”

“Hehe! You are indeed a smart person. You should know what I want.” Liu Ruyun did not speak her condition directly, looking Xiao Chen straight in the eye.

Xiao Chen shook his head, decisively rejecting her. “No. You cannot go to Desolate God Valley. If anything happens, we cannot take responsibility for it. No one will be able to bear the White Dragon King’s rage.”

When Liu Ruyun heard that, she snarled, “In that case, you can forget about knowing about my elder sister!”

“I will find out sooner or later.”

Xiao Chen did not argue with the other party. He put down the painting and left after turning away.

“Don’t go!”

After seeing Xiao Chen leave, Liu Ruyun stamped her foot and clenched her teeth in anger. She caught up to Xiao Chen and said, “Alright, I’ll tell you.”

Xiao Chen smiled inwardly. This girl is still too kind. He stopped and said, “Great. Just answer what I ask.”

“I really lost to you. Ask away, then.”

Not wanting to waste any time, Xiao Chen organized his thoughts and asked a few critical questions: Did Liu Ruyue ever mention the Sky Dome Realm? Did Liu Ruyue do any strange actions? In general, what did Liu Ruyue experience during these years?

After Liu Ruyun answered these questions, Xiao Chen’s thoughts became clearer.

In the end, he concluded that Liu Ruyue had her memories wiped.

Indeed, this was the best way for the White Dragon Race to control Liu Ruyue: making her feel that she had grown up in the White Dragon Race.

There would be no need for anything else to get Liu Ruyue to work for the White Dragon Race and acknowledge her identity.

This would explain why Liu Ruyue did not remember what Xiao Chen looked like.

It was also why Liu Ruyue did not show anything strange or mention the Sky Dome Realm all these years.

Now that Xiao Chen had an answer, he released his bated breath.

Memories were marks on the body made by time. Completely eliminating them was impossible. One could only seal them. As long as the method was found, memories could be recovered.

It just depended on how strong the person who sealed them was.

If the White Dragon King did it personally, then recovering Liu Ruyue’s memories would be somewhat problematic.

No matter what, this was a piece of fortune amid misfortune. Liu Ruyue did not suffer from any true damage. She was not threatened or controlled, either. Xiao Chen found this barely acceptable.

“Although I know a lot about my elder sister, I have a feeling that she is hiding something from me. During these years, there has been an endless stream of people pursuing her. Aside from the Dragon God Crown Prince, there were many outstanding talents from the eight empires. However, none of them interested her. I suspect that there is someone in her heart, but she will not tell me about it…”

As Liu Ruyun spoke, she found that she did not seem to truly understand Liu Ruyue.

It would be strange if you knew. Even Liu Ruyue herself does not know, Xiao Chen thought to himself. “Don’t overthink. Just remember that she is good to you.”

“That is natural… Hey, something’s off. Why are you so concerned about my elder sister, even speaking up for her?”

Liu Ruyun eyed Xiao Chen suspiciously, trying to make out something from his face. In the end, she got nothing.

“There is no need for you to care about that. I’ve thought about it. It might be possible to bring you to Desolate God Valley.” Xiao Chen changed the subject.

“Really?”

Liu Ruyun felt extremely excited. However, she immediately asked, “Are you not afraid of suffering the wrath of my father?”

I will end up falling out with your father over Liu Ruyue sooner or later. I’m not afraid of adding you to the problem.

Xiao Chen said seriously, “Cut the crap. Do you want to go or not?”

“Of course! I have waited for this day for a long time. You all should leave tomorrow. Then, I will meet you outside White Cloud City.”

Xiao Chen felt somewhat shocked. “You’ve prepared already?”

“I have been preparing for a few years. I just lacked the opportunity and did not dare to go out alone. Now that I happened to meet you all, I absolutely cannot miss out on this opportunity. Hehe! Actually, even if you did not agree, I still would have gone to look for you all. I left marks on all your bodies.”

Liu Ruyun’s eyes gleamed. This news startled Xiao Chen. This girl was much more difficult to deal with than expected.

“What if someone discovers that you went missing? What are you going to do?”

“I already prepared to deal with this long ago. Before I leave, I will say that I am entering closed-door cultivation. Then, I will only come out some time after I return. There should be no problem. Don’t worry. I have been ready for years. There will not be any accidents.”

Xiao Chen still did not feel at ease. He said seriously, “I will make something clear first. After we go out, you have to listen to all my instructions. Otherwise, I will not bring you along.”

“I promise to listen to you, alright?”

Xiao Chen said indifferently, “Swear it. Swear it on a heart demon.”

Since Xiao Chen was going to bring her out, he had to ensure her safety. He could not permit anything to go wrong.

Although Liu Ruyun probably had even more treasures and trump cards than he did, he still had to be cautious. There was nothing wrong with being careful.

After all, that Qin Aotian had been covered in inherited Dao Tools but still fell easily to Xiao Chen.

“Alright, I swear it on a heart demon. After I leave the White Dragon Palace, I will not act alone. I will listen to you, Xiao Chen, in everything until I return to the White Dragon Palace.”

Since Xiao Chen looked so serious, Liu Ruyun swore on a heart demon to put him at ease.

If she went back on her oath, she would develop a heart demon that would cause her to go into a state of Berserking Qi Deviation.

Xiao Chen heaved a sigh of relief and asked, “Why do you trust me so much?”

Liu Ruyun showed a heroic look and replied, “Because I am confident. Because you are a smart person and know that I have trump cards. If you wish to harm me, you will have to be ready to die.

“I’ll go and prepare. You should leave early as well. Don’t let others discover you.” Immediately after saying that, Liu Ruyun turned and left.

Xiao Chen entered deep thought. This girl was not as simple as she looked. This was good too. He would worry less.

As he looked at the painting, he felt a warmth in his heart when he thought about Liu Ruyue’s matter.

Even with her memories wiped, Liu Ruyue still did not completely forget about him and tried her best to remember.

Wait for me. I will definitely help you recover your memories.

Xiao Chen gave the pavilion a final look before putting on the Death God Mask and leaving this place.
