Chapter 1648 466: Each with Their Own Perspective
Destiny is always full of coincidences, and sometimes the more you worry about something, the more likely it is to happen.
With the joy of victory and the anticipation of sharing it, Erin and Carian arrived in front of Luo Yan almost at the same time.
However, the moment they saw each other, the joyful expression on their faces involuntarily toned down.
That was the intuition of the "Chosen One."
Two invisible blades clashed in the air, as if sparking invisible flames.
Their warhorses instinctively restrained their steps, making slight neighing sounds, as if they felt the pressure of a strong presence in the silent tension.
That was the intuition of the horse.
'Eh? Lord Demon King, why is your shoulder also shaking—'
'Youyou, shut up.'
'Woo woo...'
Shake?
Impossible.
At this moment, Luo Yan still wore a calm and composed expression, his smile as bright as the sunlight after the clouds have dispersed, showing no sign of sweating over such a small scene.
Facts prove that even the Gods who rule over karma cannot resist the cause and effect of the Mortal World.
A mask, once worn, is destined to fall off one day; it's just a matter of time.
"Colin, are you all right? I was really worried sick about you just now... What exactly happened?"
Erin was the first to break the silence.
Her voice was unprecedentedly gentle, so much so that Luo Yan almost didn't realize it was her speaking.
Only to see Erin dismount cleanly and neatly.
She returned the Light of Praise to her waist, settled her warhorse, and walked up to Colin with an "Unbreakable" posture.
In both battle and "battle," she belonged to the type who strikes first.
Those always steadfast, bright green eyes were now filled with tenderness and dependence.
That's a side she only shows in front of someone special.
In front of outsiders, she is forever Campbell's hero, but only in front of that "Lord God" who has a soft spot for her, can she become that carefree girl.
This statement isn't entirely accurate.
Luo Yan often has a "soft heart," even towards Thanos, who once betrayed him; he just smiled and let it go.
"I'm fine—"
Before he could finish his words, Carian, who never interrupted him, suddenly interjected this time.
"Miss Erin Campbell, please allow me to speak a word."
Dismounting, Carian walked up beside Erin, glanced softly at Colin, then turned to Erin, her kindly gaze unchanged, yet she contained the excess admiration.
"Mr. Colin just defeated the Chosen One of Chaos; what he needs most now is rest, not questioning."
"Q-Q-Questioning?" Erin panicked for a moment and hurriedly replied, "I didn't mean that, I was just concerned—"
"If you truly care about him, then you should let him catch his breath first."
Though saying so, Carian didn't intend to give Colin a break.
Taking advantage of Miss Erin's fluster, she stepped forward, naturally clasping her hands together to hold his hand.
"Your Highness, seeing you safe and sound, I can finally put my anxious heart at ease."
Her pure and flawless eyes seemed to tempt that articulate hand forward a bit more, to feel the sincere and fervent heartbeat up close.
Carian was also doing something this bold for the first time.
Her blushing face looked like an apple in the golden October, ripe and nearly falling from the branch.
However, she didn't regret it.
Even for the masses of the Twilight Province, she had to represent them, to keep this benevolent Lord Divine Son for this land of despair!
The more devout a person, the more they deceive themselves.
Carian had clearly forgotten that she wasn't a Ryan person, but came from further north, among the Rhode people.
Even from a few inches away, Luo Yan could feel the heartbeats that traveled through the air.
But clearly, someone's heart was beating faster than hers, and the blood pressure was even higher.
"...What are you doing!"
Erin said incoherently, her reddened ears looking like a steaming boiler, eager to rush up and cut through those tightly intertwined fingers with a sword.
This is... such blasphemy!
How could someone without a marriage contract grasp another's hand so indiscreetly?!
That clearly wasn't a formal handshake.
She thought her elegance and decorum would make this girl, who came out of nowhere, feel ashamed, but unexpectedly, not only did she not back down, she had taken Mr. Colin's first time right in front of her...
Wait a minute.
Suddenly realizing something, Erin's face turned slightly pale, falling into even deeper contemplation.
Mr. Colin did not shake off that woman's hand.
Could it be...
He's actually very skilled?!
The bright green eyes tinted with melancholy, her lips trembling slightly, unable to utter a word.
That kind of thing—
No!!
Xiao Chunu always liked to overthink things, and Luo Yan could guess what Erin misunderstood without effort.
Seeing through the cunning behind those innocent eyes, he gently sighed, his voice carrying a trace of authority.
"Carian."
Hearing the displeasure in that voice, Carian realized her joke had gone a bit too far, so she lowered her head apologetically and obediently let go of the clasped hands.
"I'm sorry, Your Highness, I'm just too excited to meet you again... please punish me."
Her apology didn't carry much sincerity, or she wouldn't have used such a misleading statement on purpose.
However, she stood her ground.
