Chapter 143 Leaving
Chapter 143 Leaving
After packing up, Lucifer and Chris quietly left without anyone noticing. He didn't want anyone to see him off, as it would only make him more reluctant to leave.
At this moment, the two had already fallen from the cliff and arrived at the foot of the mountain.
Looking at the lush greenery halfway up the cliff, Lucifer felt a pang of melancholy. The Spirit Cat Clan could be considered his first home in this world.
Now, he is about to leave home, and may never return. His eyes are filled with reluctance and regret.
Chris didn't say anything, as if she didn't care about Lucifer, and took the lead in walking away.
Lucifer sighed softly, "I'll come back and take another look if I have the chance!"
Emily, Laestia, Lulu, Linlin, take care, I'm leaving.
However, he stopped before he had gone far, because Chris was standing in front of him, gazing ahead.
Lucifer came to her side, looked ahead, and was stunned.
It was a beautiful lakeside, with peach blossoms everywhere. A gentle breeze blew, and the peach blossoms danced in the air.
A stunningly beautiful figure leaned against a peach tree, her beautiful eyes filled with a faint sorrow. She gazed at the gently flowing stream, lost in thought.
She wore a pink dress with a hem that almost touched the ground, concealing her delicate embroidered shoes that resembled golden lotuses. Her hair was adorned with jade hairpins, and she wore pearl earrings. A pearl necklace hung around her fair neck, and her skin was snow-white and translucent, almost transparent, as if one could see through her bones.
Her long, slender, and fair neck was naturally raised, giving her an incomparably noble air amidst her beauty, making her far superior to even princesses with royal blood.
Her face was radiant and captivating; her lifelong pink attire made her blend seamlessly into the peach blossom grove, captivating anyone who saw her at first glance.
It's hard to tell whether she's highlighting the peach orchard or the peach orchard is highlighting her.
Lucifer was stunned. She had clearly dressed up carefully. Was she there to see him off?
This is where he first fought with Restia, and it is also here that he lost to her.
At that time, he fantasized that he could take advantage of his proximity to the woman and that even the heavens were on his side, allowing him to get a wife for free.
However, after spending some time together, he has fallen into depravity, but Laestia remains the same as before, seemingly unmoved.
Until that night, he was rejected and ruthlessly kicked out of the tent. Although he was too hasty, it was because he liked her and couldn't wait any longer.
However, the result disappointed her. At that moment, she realized how foolish and naive she had been.
They just want to keep you hanging on, to make you a shield for the Spirit Cat Clan, but you think they're interested in you.
How ridiculous! It turns out he'd been indulging in wishful thinking all along. Forget about love at first sight!
They completely ignored you, and didn't even say a word to try and persuade you to stay when you stepped down and were about to leave. They gave up on you completely.
But why, when I'm about to leave, do you try to sway me?
“Let’s go!” Lucifer shook his head, gritted his teeth, and turned to walk in another direction.
However, before he had taken more than a few steps, he heard Laestia's mournful voice from not far away.
Aren't you going to say anything to me?
Lucifer's body trembled slightly, and his steps faltered slightly, but he did not turn around, for if he did, he would be unable to move forward.
So he resolutely took a step forward, without looking back, and gradually walked away.
At that moment, Laestia felt as if her heart was being pricked by needles and stabbed by knives.
Why don't you turn around?
Are you not even going to give me a chance to say goodbye?
Why do I feel like you'll never come back after you leave like this?
She didn't know where the courage came from, but she suddenly took a step and ran from the lakeside without hesitation.
However, Chris blocked her way. When she went to the left, Chris went to the left; when she went to the right, Chris went to the right. Clearly, she didn't want her to chase after Lucifer.
They could only watch from afar as Lucifer walked further and further away.
"Why did you stop me?" Lestia asked, flustered, staring into the distance, afraid that Lucifer would disappear from her sight.
"Heh, give me a reason why I won't stop you." Chris crossed her arms, and for some reason, the thought of Lucifer's distraught appearance made her angry.
"I……"
Sure enough, she couldn't say a word for a long time.
Yes! What reason do I have to let him stay?
From the very beginning, I was using him to protect the Spirit Cat Clan, while he remained calm and fearless in the face of being surrounded by hundreds of Wolf Fang Clan members, charging into battle without flinching.
They even stormed into the Wolf Fang Clan and killed the Wolf King, resolving an insurmountable crisis for their Spirit Cat Clan.
Lucifer has done enough. What reason do I have to keep him around? Is it because he has no more value to me?
But why am I reluctant to let him go?
"That's enough! Since he's already decided to leave, you shouldn't keep bothering him. A mere spirit cat can't possibly keep a dragon destined to soar through the skies." Chris waved her hand; she couldn't let Restia go after Lucifer.
"The falling flowers are willing, but the flowing water is heartless? What does that mean?" Lacey was somewhat confused.
“Heh.” Chris looked at her and gave a sarcastic smile.
Don't tell me you didn't even know he liked you.
I don't believe it. If you've already refused, don't keep bothering me. The chieftain of the Spirit Cat Clan, the former queen, is truly pathetic.
Chris didn't explain further. With a wave of her hand, an invisible prison trapped her inside, leaving a somewhat dazed Laestia behind as she walked away.
