Chapter 530 Hilo: I was the one who did it first...
Hiiro stood there, stunned.
She watched the figure walk past her without stopping, and for a moment, she didn't know how to react.
My feet seemed to be nailed to the spot.
However, in that brief moment of her daze...
The equally disheveled maid beside her, Xiluo, had already consciously and silently followed behind Taoyao, taking steps forward.
Seeing this, Hiyori belatedly came to her senses.
She gritted her teeth, ignoring her physical weakness, and hurriedly followed.
No matter what, I absolutely cannot let her disappear from my sight again!
Violet and Forget-Me-Not exchanged a glance, then rose from the peach blossom cloud, dragging their weary bodies, and silently followed at the back of the group.
Tao Yao didn't seem to care about the long string of little tails following behind her.
Holding the sleeping Eternity in her arms, she passed through the empty main hall and entered a complex, labyrinthine corridor.
The walls on both sides of the corridor are carved with countless intricate and ancient patterns, radiating a faint sacred glow that makes the entire passageway appear dreamlike.
Fei Ying followed closely behind, taking each step carefully, afraid that she would lose sight of that figure if she wasn't careful.
soon.
Tao Yao stopped in front of a door carved with peach blossom patterns.
She didn't push it with her hands; the door slid open automatically and silently to both sides.
Behind the door was a room.
A room that was completely different from the solemn and majestic style of the temple.
Tao Yao, holding Yongheng, went inside.
Hiyori and Hiro followed closely behind. The moment they stepped into the room, an indescribable warmth enveloped them.
It was a very spacious room, but it didn't feel empty at all.
The overall color scheme is a soft pink and warm off-white, with just the right amount of lighting falling from the ceiling, dispelling all the gloom.
A faint, refreshing fragrance of peach blossoms filled the air.
She is very gentle and reassuring.
Holding Eternity in her arms, Tao Yao walked straight to the deepest part of the room.
There, there was a huge, fluffy-looking pink bed.
She carefully placed the broken figure in her arms gently on the bed, and then carefully pulled a thin blanket over her.
After doing all this, she straightened up and stood quietly by the bed, looking at the still unconscious figure on the bed, without saying a word for a long time.
At this moment, after following her into the room, Fei Ying was almost completely stunned.
Her signature ahoge (cowlick) stood up straight up all at once.
She looked around curiously.
Everything here is filled with the fragrance of peach blossoms.
Whether it's the dressing table in the corner or the rocking chair casually placed by the window, they all exude a lazy yet elegant feeling that belongs to the owner.
here……
Could this be the place where Tao Yao has always lived?
This thought uncontrollably popped into Hiyori's heart.
Just then, her gaze was drawn to something in the corner of the room.
That was a treasure chest.
An ordinary-looking, even somewhat old, wooden treasure chest was casually placed in the corner, with a thin layer of dust on it.
However, her long-standing instincts as an adventurer were frantically sending out warnings to Sakura.
This treasure chest is quite extraordinary!
Although it looks unassuming, it definitely contains amazing treasures inside!
After all, this is a treasure chest kept in Tao Yao's room!
How could anything she collect be ordinary?
For a moment, Fei Ying's heart skipped a beat, and an irresistible impulse surged into her heart, making her almost want to rush over immediately and pry open the treasure chest to take a look.
She struggled to control herself, forcing her gaze away from the tempting treasure chest.
Now is not the time to think about this!
She followed Xiluo to the bedside and stood beside Taoyao.
Back by Tao Yao's side, Xi Luo seemed to return to normal immediately.
She was no longer the challenger who dared to question the gods, but had reverted to the taciturn, perfect maid who would only silently follow behind her master.
Hiyori's attention returned to the faintly breathing figure on the bed.
Looking at Yongheng's pale face and the shocking "nothingness" on her right shoulder, she felt a chill rise from the bottom of her heart.
She could sense that the atmosphere in the room was heavy and oppressive.
Although Tao Yao didn't say anything, her deep weariness and worry were impossible to hide.
She really wanted to share some of the burden with her.
"Taoyao..."
Sakura spoke softly, breaking the silence in the room.
"In the end what happened?"
Tao Yao remained silent for a brief moment.
She turned around, her gentle eyes sweeping over Fei Ying, Xi Luo, and the other girls behind her who also looked worried.
Finally, she sighed softly.
"This is perhaps why I have never wanted you to stay by my side."
Her voice was soft, yet it reached the ears of every girl clearly.
"Whether it is the End Fairy or the Eternal Fairy, they are both relatively ancient fairies who were favored by the previous generation of goddesses in the past."
"Although they are powerful, they are full of flaws."
"And you, as newly born fairies, possess an infinitely vast future."
“It’s not a good thing to get too involved with them.”
Tao Yao's words remained gentle, yet they acted like an invisible barrier, creating a distant distance between them and her.
However, she had barely finished speaking.
Hilo, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up.
But I don't care.
Her voice wasn't loud, but it carried an undeniable firmness.
"I just want to stay by your side, just like before!"
"And I don't understand why that dragon can do it, but I can't? We're both maids, and I was the one who went first..."
The little maid raised her head, her silver eyes filled with grievance and stubbornness.
She could never understand why Tao Yao was so averse to her being by her side.
Clearly... she would do anything for her.
Upon hearing these words, Tao Yao fell silent once again.
She looked at Shiloh quietly, at that face filled with incomprehension and stubbornness.
for a long time.
She spoke again, and her gentle words made everyone present's heart skip a beat.
Shiloh, in particular, perked up instantly.
“Little Shiloh, you asked me not long ago why I can’t love you.”
"But I didn't respond to you at the time."
"And now, I think I might be able to give you an answer."
