Villain: Her Imagination Makes Me Invincible-Chapter 121

Chapter 121: Save Him? Fine. But Healing Him Too?

This icy, snow-covered world seemed boundless.

Wherever one went, there was nothing but ice and snow.

To leave this space, the only exit was the main gate!

And now, everyone who had once entered this place—whether human, demon, or void creature—had quietly joined forces.

They were searching for Ling Xue and Yun Luoxi.

While blocking the gate, they were also searching for Ling Xue and Yun Luoxi!

Though everyone had their ulterior motives, they were united in one thing—finding Ling Xue and the Heaven-Separating Fire Rod.

No one wanted to stay in this godforsaken place forever!

Of course, they didn’t want to either.

And now, the key was in Ling Xue’s hands.

To get out, they had to find the key!

But Yun Luoxi… was unfamiliar with this space.

She wanted to leave but had no way out.

No matter which direction she walked, she couldn’t find the edge!

She had secretly scouted the main gate, but it was blocked by those strong individuals working together.

So, she had no choice but to stay here.

And then… figure out a plan!

Or perhaps… wait until Ling Xue woke up to come up with one.

In an ice cave deep within an unknown glacier, Yun Luoxi sat on a sparkling block of ice.

At this moment, her exquisitely beautiful face bore an extremely complex expression.

There was anger, regret, contemplation, and resentment.

And a sense of hèn tiě bù chéng gāng![1]

She sat there, one hand supporting her delicate chin, her beautiful eyes gazing ahead.

And in front of her, lying on a block of ice, was none other than Ling Xue.

Of course, she hadn’t killed Ling Xue! freewebnøvel.com

Of course, in the end, she couldn’t bring herself to do it!

That’s why her expression was the way it was now.

That expression reflected her self-blame for not being ruthless enough.

Why didn’t I strike him down?

One slash and it would all be over!

The vengeance would be fulfilled!

But why didn’t I do it?

Fine!

Even if I didn’t want to take advantage of him while he was down, I could’ve at least left him!

Throw him to those who want him dead, and he’d die just the same, wouldn’t he?

I’d still get my revenge, right?

But not only had she not killed him, nor had she handed him over to others.

Instead, she had hidden him away.

And she was secretly using her energy to heal his body.

Yun Luoxi let out a long sigh and then stood up.

She walked to the wall and, through the smooth ice surface, stared at her reflection.

At this moment, it was as if she was having a conversation with herself.

What are you doing?

You saved him, saved him!

He’s your enemy—don’t forget what he did to you back then!

Why are you saving him?

What makes him worth saving?

Saving him is one thing, but healing him?

You’ve crossed into the realm of caring for him!

Why would you care about him?

Usually calm and composed, Yun Luoxi was now battling herself internally.

In the end, she could never win against herself…

After thinking about it in front of the “mirror” for a long time, she turned around and slowly walked to Ling Xue.

Looking at Ling Xue lying unconscious on the bed, his face expressionless.

And seeing that his hair was as white as hers…

“I just don’t want to take advantage of someone when they’re down, Ling Xue. You owe me your life!”

She muttered to herself, “In the future, we’ll have a fair fight. Next time, I’ll kill you for sure!”

Of course, these words were to fool herself.

When a person starts lying to themselves, it’s like they get to decide everything…

Saying it like this made it sound perfectly reasonable!

In the silent ice cave, only Yun Luoxi was awake.

She continued to gaze at Ling Xue lying on the bed.

Staring at his face.

Then she couldn’t help but carefully examine him…

And started to have certain thoughts…

His lips… are quite nice.

No, to be precise, every part of him looks nice.

His facial features, his contours.

In every way, he is, without a doubt, the most handsome and charismatic man in the entire world…

Then there is his white hair.

Yun Luoxi’s gaze suddenly fixed on Ling Xue’s hair.

His snow-white long hair, streaked with strands of crimson!

Just like him—a clean, white figure with a pair of blood-red eyes.

Yun Luoxi suddenly thought This guy was really strange.

Why does he have white hair like mine, but with streaks of blood-red mixed in?

With that thought, Yun Luoxi raised her delicate hand.

Then, from Ling Xue’s full head of white hair, she plucked out a blood-red strand.

She pulled out that single red hair…

“You better wake up soon, or… I’ll pull out one strand of your hair every day until you go bald!”

Yun Luoxi muttered quietly.

But after saying that, she couldn’t help but laugh.

Because imagining Ling Xue bald was truly funny…

This was a genuine laugh from the bottom of her heart!

It was probably the first time in this world anyone had ever seen her truly smile.

No one knew how beautiful her smile was.

Not even Ling Xue, who was still unconscious!

Yun Luoxi suddenly felt like she had found a little joy.

And that was… pulling out his hair!

She secretly decided in her heart that if Ling Xue didn’t wake up, she would pluck one strand of his hair every day!

No, one strand every hour…

No, one strand every half-hour…

Yun Luoxi had indeed pulled out quite a few strands of Ling Xue’s hair.

And they were all blood-red.

By now, she had gathered a decent-sized bundle of red hair.

Because Ling Xue… had been asleep for six whole days!
