Chapter 153: Calm and Good
Her calm demeanor was even more striking. She stood there gracefully, her figure as graceful as a dancing fairy. Every movement was smooth and natural, without a trace of hesitation. It was as if this level of attack was commonplace to her, and no matter how fierce the attack, it couldn't even begin to shake her!
Meanwhile, Lu Yan stood quietly by, like a sturdy, green pine tree. His posture was upright and straight, every line imbued with strength and tenacity, giving off an air of stability as solid as Mount Tai. His face was tense, like a piece of cold marble, expressionless, yet this did not diminish the cold and majestic aura he exuded. His eyes were deep and dark, like two bottomless black holes, swallowing up all the light around them, a formidable sight. At this moment, he seemed completely lost in his own world, lost in endless contemplation.
His motionless figure, like a silent statue, exudes an inviolable solemnity. The clamor and chaos around him, like surging waves, constantly crashing against the reefs, yet this "statue" remains unshaken, unmoved. As time passes, he maintains his original posture, not even the hem of his clothing fluttering.
However, in this atmosphere so solemn that it seemed as if water could drip, Fang Congyi, who had stood still like a statue, without saying a word or reacting at all, suddenly moved. He slowly raised his head, his gaze shifting in a certain direction, a look that was difficult to read. Then, his body began to tremble slightly, as if he was experiencing a fierce struggle within himself.
Her delicate body trembled slightly, and her pink lips quivered slightly, like petals swaying in the wind. Then, her cherry-red, delicate mouth slowly opened like a bud about to bloom.
At first, the sound that emanated from her mouth was as thin as a thread, as gentle as the ripples caused by a gentle breeze across a calm lake. The sound was so faint that it was almost imperceptible, as if it were a whisper from another world.
Yet, at this moment, the surroundings were completely silent, devoid of any sound. This tranquility was like a pool of stagnant water, where even the slightest noise could cause a ripple. Therefore, even the slightest sound she made would be infinitely amplified and clearly audible in this still atmosphere.
In a split second, a dazzling flash of thunder streaked across the sky. Like a ferocious dragon, it burst forth with fangs and claws. With devastating force and a shattering power, it tore through the air, once frozen like stagnant water, with lightning speed and swiftness that was almost too fast to be heard. In an instant, the entire world changed color, winds howled, sand and rocks flew, as if doomsday had arrived.
At that moment, the entire space suddenly trembled violently, as if struck by an unprecedented catastrophe. An indescribably powerful force erupted, like a surging wave crashing against a fragile embankment, raging with overwhelming force. With a crisp "crack," the previously tranquil space was instantly torn apart by this unbridled force! A terrifyingly vast crack rapidly spread, seemingly threatening to completely devour the entire world. Along with the crack's appearance, a deafening, resounding roar echoed, like a thousand thunders roaring, the sky collapsing and the earth splitting, leaving one's heart pounding with fear!
"It's not him..." Fang Congyi's voice, though soft, was remarkably clear amid the chaos and clamor. His tone was strangely calm, as if everything that was happening was within his expectations. Yet, these three simple words struck everyone present like a hammer.
Lu Yan had been completely unprepared for such a sudden turn of events. He froze, his body trembling involuntarily as if struck by lightning. A trace of bewilderment and confusion first crossed his handsome face, followed by an expression of barely concealed astonishment. His eyes widened, nearly popping out of their sockets, and his mouth opened wide enough to fit an egg. This expression of utter shock made him look somewhat comical, but no one noticed at the moment, as everyone's attention was drawn to the terrifying crack and the accompanying roar.
As if an invisible force was pulling Lu Yan's gaze, his eyes, originally filled with astonishment, now uncontrollably stared straight in the direction of Fang Congyi. Meanwhile, Lu Yan, who had been standing quietly beside Fang Congyi, also stared at him intently, his eyes revealing a complex emotion—both confusion and deep worry.
At that moment, his body seemed to be frozen. He was involuntarily startled and his eyes widened. His originally handsome face was instantly filled with surprise.
It was obvious that he hadn't been prepared for Fang Congyi's sudden, unprovoked, and jaw-dropping statement. It was completely unexpected! It was like a huge rock suddenly thrown into a calm lake, stirring up a thousand waves.
However, it's worth noting that Lu Yan is no ordinary person. Having weathered countless storms and battles, he has long since cultivated an extraordinary calmness and adaptability. This trait allows him to remain calm and composed in the face of any unexpected situation.
Sure enough, after just a short while, his slightly dazed eyes regained their luster, and he came back to his senses as quickly as the wind.
Over the past few days, Lu Yan had been by Fang Congyi's side, and they had experienced many things together. This period not only allowed them to gain a deeper understanding of each other, but also gave Lu Yan a clearer understanding of Fang Congyi's personality traits and way of thinking. Lu Yan himself possessed an innate keen insight, as if he could see through all the truths hidden beneath the surface.
At a certain moment, when Fang Cong opened his mouth to say that, Lu Yan almost in the blink of an eye saw the profound meaning hidden behind it.
