Strange man's { owner of the herbal valley } POV ..

She passed out after taking out some blood from her wrist , and now here I am .. Taking out his poisoned arrow , giving my spiritual power to him , feeding him his medicine ..
He was mumbling that please don't save me .. I don't wanna live now .. I broke her heart , I don't deserve to live .. Just kill me .. Please ..

He was literally begging me to kill him ..

Don't worry , I also don't want you to live but if you die she will die too .. I can't turn back the time again !! If I do I will fall into a deep coma .. For at least 30 years ..
Who will protect her ?? Huh ?? You ?? with that demonic energy ?? She is trying so hard to save you And those two stupid people are sitting in the study , searching for the cure to this ..

I left the room in anger and sat outside in the porch ..

I have been trying to save this fool { Xiao Qian } for so many times ... During the starting time , separation from Han Shou was the reason of her death , then that mysterious man , then I became the reason of her death .. This time I will definitely save her .. I built this herbal valley just for her ..

I can keep her here .. Forever but the one she loves is not me .. Living here forever is not what she wants .. I failed to save her 9 times but this time I will definitely save her .. I have this last chance to save her .. I can turn back the time only ten times in a hundred years .. This is my last chance .. I will definitely save her .. Not because I wanted to use her to break the seal of nine abyss of hell but instead I .... I ... -----------------------

{ Master .. !! Your guest woke up .. }

I ran towards her when lingyue told me that she woke up .. But she was not in her room .. Instead she went back to the herbal garden to look for the cure ..

This fool !! Can't she get some proper rest ??

I ran outside to the herbal garden and found her sitting there .. She was so lost in her thoughts ..

I remember the first time .. When I saw her .. It was the same weather , not the same herbal garden but still it was beautiful .. The wind gently weaves through her hair , it creates a mesmerizing dance , enhancing her beauty with each graceful sway ... .. Under the soft glow of the sun , her hazel eyes sparkle like precious gems , while the sunlight dances on her long , black hair with subtle blue highlights , creating a stunning contrast against the clear blue sky ..

Little fool ?? you are awake !! Why can't you take a proper rest ?? [ I said standing behind her .. ]

I need to make an antidote for this poison .. Do you have any idea ? How can I detoxify this poison completely ??

How can I know about the poison YOU CREATED !!! ??
Ummm But I can give you a hint ...
What do you do when someone aims their sword towards you ? { I asked her .. }

Ummmm fight back ? ! { she said with a cock of her head }

Likewise when someone hit's you with a stone , you will hit them with a brick .. Right ?? I asked her hoping that she could get a hint from that .. }

Why are you saying this ?? { oh noo !!! why can't this fool get a hint ?? }

You ---- { I took a deep breath } Sometimes, only poison is the cure to another poison ..

I guess my words struck her like a bolt of lightning .. There was awkward silence for a moment but then she suddenly screamed .. { I got it !! I got it !! I got it poison guy .. she screamed as she held my hands .. It has been very long since she held my hands .. }

Lingyue and her spirit beast came out after they heard her screaming ..

Stinky bird what's wrong with you ?? Why are shouting ? Did you got the cure ?? { he screeched at her .. }

Yeah fussy fish !! I got the cure .. { she screamed hugging him .. He wanted to push her away but due to her happiness he patted on her back .. While Lingyue glared at him .. Hehe looks like someone is not going to single for a long time ..

Aaayaa then quick make the cure .. This poison guy will help you .. { I looked at him when he called me poison guy .. This is what Xiao Qian calls me how did he knew .. Why are they like sibblings ?? }

Aconite !! I think that when Arsenic is highly poisonous and Aconite is also highly poisonous they might neutralize each other .. A poison will detoxify another poison .. It's just a theory .. I haven't tried it yet .. { she said }

Also symptoms of Arsenic poison is totally opposite from Aconite , soooo ... .... They might neutralize each other ..

Then what are you waiting for ?? Go and make the antidote !! I will prepare the other necessary herbs ...

Within that second she went towards the plantation of all poisons .. I told her to be careful ..

After sometime she came in the room with a bowl of medicinal soup .. My eyes fell straight on her injured right hand .. There were so many scratches .. Did she tried to kill herself ?? No according to last time the first time she tried to kill herself was when she reached home ..

Why ... why are you injured ?

I climbed at the cherry blossoms tree and fell ..

Why did you climbed that tree ?? Also don't you have wings ? { hearing my question she was silent for a minute .. }

How did you knew I had wings ?? { oohh noo again that question }

I quickly grabbed that bowl and asked her spirit beast to get her out of the room ..

Two Hours Later .. ----- -------------- -------------- -----------

She has been standing outside since two hours .. Her hands are trembling .. Why ?? Why do we need to suffer like this ? Why there are responsibilities ?? Why am I trapped in a situation with no other way out ? Why do I have to kill any one of them ?? why ?

I sighed .. ...........

Han Shou opened his eyes , looked around to confirm if he was still alive .. The regret of being alive was seen through his eyes .. There were tears in his eyes ..

Why ?? WHYYYYYYY !!!! ??? { He screamed }

Xiao Qian was about to enter the room but he screamed again ..

Why ?? huh ? Chu Xiao Qian I asked to you to do one thing and you couldn't even do that ? One thing , I asked you to do .. To leave me alone .. Just let me be ... Just let me DIEEEEE !! Why do you want me to suffer ?? Huh ? Your brothers were already ready to kill me , they poisoned me .. Just leave me .. Just let me die peacefully !! You know what I hate you the most .. I was happy getting rid of my life but you ruined it , you ruined my happiness .. { He was breathing very heavily }

I was able to see Xiao Qian outside the door holding in her tears .. Watching her like this broke my heart , I wanted to kill him for hurting her like this but there was nothing I could do .. I wanted to tear apart his body ..

He again screamed ..

Whyyyyyy !!! huh ? why are you like this .. ?? First you and your brother's won't let me live in peace and now you won't even let me die in peace ?? Whyyy ?? Answer me ?? Whyyyyyy !!

Because I love Youuuuu !!!! I promised to save you everytime you would be in trouble , I promised you that I would remove your all problems by their roots .... Why are you treating me like this .. I have feelings too .. Not insensitive like you .. { she screamed and started sobbing , I went towards her and casted a barrier around her .. I knew what she was gonna do .. }

She tightened her fists and used her lightning powers to create a destruction .. But since she was inside a barrier nothing was harmed ..

But I don't ... I don't want you to save me , let me die peacefully .. I regret that I blocked an arrow for you , I regret I marrying you , I regret each and every moment with you .. I hate you ... { he screamed back at her .. }

What is your PROBLEMMMMM !!!! ??? { she screamed at him , fussy fish and lingyue were watching everything , even their eyes were wet .. }

You want to know my problem ?? Okay

My life has been a big mess ever since YOU CAME INTO MY LIFEEE !!! I hate it .. The war , going to your kingdom , coming to search for a mysterious guy , saving you , marrying you , making useless vows for you , I hate it .. Each and every moment of it .. Yes I am insensitive , I am a heartless playboy , a heartless stone hearted person so just leave me .... Leaveeeee !!!

But names written on stones can never be erased ... { she said gently } ..

But your name was never written here .. { he sais with a widew grin }

{ Han Shou tried his best to hide his tears while she was crying on the floor .. I hated it .. }

She suddenly stood up and stretched her right arm in the direction of lingyue , suddenly lingyue flew towards her ..

Lingyue tried to resist but Xiao Qian held her and pointed some poisoned needles towards her ..

Don't move !! if you want your life , take out your dagger ... { QUICK !! she screeched in a harsh voice }

Lingyue took out her dagger and gave it to Xiao Qian ..

I don't want it , point towards him , throw that dagger at him .. I don't wanna harm you ...

Yu Han Shou you want to die right .. I will grant your wish .. { She screeched as a colour-less drop of tear fell from her hazel eyes to her pale cheeks .. but those colour - less tears had so many memories within them .. }

{ Stinky bird , are you crazy , he is the prince of Wei Dynasty .. It will start a war .. }

I don't care even if he is the prince of heavens .. { aayaa he is !! fussy fish screeched at her .. }

And with that , she removed her silver needles and ------

Attacked me with lavender fire .. I was not trapped in it but I used my defence .. Fussy Fish was helping me ..

Till that time Xiao Qian held lingyue's hand threw the dagger towards the ceiling .. It knocked at the ceiling and then went straight towards Han Shou ..

He did not tried to move even a little a bit , he was smiling .. Fussy Fish saw him and used his water to push that dagger aside but it went straight towards his heart ..

Happy Now ?? ... I - I ... hate you ... { she screamed and flew away .. Fussy fish tried to follow her but I stopped him .. }

She needs some time alone , you stay with Lingyue to help me out to save Han Shou .. I just bandaged him so he won't get hurt that much .. I don't know what this guy is trying to hide .. I just applied medicine at his wound and now that fool ruined it .. Now I have to do it all again .. { I sighed }

Lingyue's face turned pale as she saw blood flowing out of Han Shou's chest .. She stumbled upon her own foot and was about to fall but fussy fish unleashed his water magic and held her ..

I ... I -I harmed him ?? Yes , I harmed him .. I harmed an innocent .. { she started breathing heavily }

No you didn't .. It was done by stinky bird .. Don't be tensed up .. I am with you .. { he says as he tries to hug her }

But she pushed him away and screeched .... - -

WHO NEEDS YOUR HUGS ?? { she was about to cry .. }

Heyy .. hey y - you .. ayaa don't cry .. Aaaya poison guy .. Your servant is crying and you are comforting her ?? What kind of master are you ?? { what ??! how dare he screeched at me .. I am the strongest dem - no !! I can't expose my identity .. I don't think I need to be her master from now onwards .. She already found you .. Hehe I said with raising one of my eyebrow .. }

You - { he was speechless .. Mortals and gods can't fall in love .. } Who wants to fall in love with a fish ?? It stinks .. { she said with tears in her eyes and a disgusted face }

You - how did you knew I am a merman ?? { he asked her }

I am not stupid like you , I heard it from your master ... Mortal you should be grateful that I am comforting you .. Stop it .. Not many people get's my hugs ..

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Who is this new man ?? Who is the person by his side ??

Why is he trying to save both of them ?? Why is he talking about reversing the time .. Using Xiao Qian for his own benefit ?? no one really knows ...

----------------------------------------------

So again I am back .. HEHE
