He had just changed into a set of clean clothes.
At this moment, the youth’s clean white inner shirt was slightly open, and his collarbone could be vaguely seen. Further down was his well-defined body.
He was wearing brown brocade pants, making Ye Siming’s body look even thinner and his long legs stronger.
Ye Siming was holding a dry white towel and wiping his forehead and hair.
Gu Nuo’er blinked. “Elder Brother Siming, isn’t your room next door?” Ye Siming turned his head, his thin eyes dark.
“It’s not safe for me to be separated from you in the Xili Empire.”
The youth bent his knees and sat on the chair, slowly drying his hair.
He pointed at the bed inside. “I’ll sleep on the floor and watch over you.”
Gu Nuo’er walked in to take a look.
Ye Siming had even laid out the bedding on the floor!
The child ran to the outer room. “Elder Brother Siming, you’ll feel cold sleeping on the ground!”
Ye Siming had already finished drying his hair.
He took another clean white towel and strode towards Gu Nuo’er.
Before the child could react, he carried her over his shoulder and placed her on the edge of the bed.
“Do you think I’m afraid of the cold?” Ye Siming said in a deep and cold voice without looking up.
He skillfully took off Gu Nuo’er’s wet shoes and socks.
Just now, he had followed from afar and saw Gu Nuo’er walking in the water. It would be strange if they weren’t wet.
At this moment, Gu Nuo’er’s ten cute toes had already turned a little pale from being soaked in the water.
Her small feet were like the cute and small white jade in Ye Siming’s hand. The youth lowered his head and half-knelt on the footrest, gently wiping her feet.
Gu Nuo’er started giggling a little as she felt a little itchy.
‘Ye Siming said calmly, “Have you ever been to the Snow Domain? It’s recorded in the ‘Classic of Mountains and Seas’ that the place is located in the north of the Northern Kingdom.
“The heavy snow there is more than ten feet deep. The place is covered in snow all year round. In the three realms, anyone who goes there will be in danger of freezing to death.”
Gu Nuo’er placed her small hands on the bed, looking relaxed.
As she watched Ye Siming warming up her feet, she blinked her watery eyes curiously and asked, “Since it’s so cold, why did Elder Brother Siming go there?”
Ye Siming paused for a moment and wasn’t in a hurry to answer.
After a while, he said, “I was looking for a suitable place to stay.
“In the mortal world, I can’t control my killing intent and I’m tired of killing people.
“The Nine Heavens couldn’t tolerate me, so I left the three realms and went to the north of the Northern Kingdom to search for the legendary snowy domain.”
Gu Nuo’er quickly asked, “Did Elder Brother Siming find it?”
“I did.”
The child blinked her watery eyes. She reached out her small hand, pinched Ye Siming’s cheek, and tugged gently.
Ye Siming frowned and didn’t dodge her actions.
“What are you doing?” The youth was puzzled.
Gu Nuo’er smiled. “Elder Brother Siming said that the Snow Domain is very cold. Then why weren’t you frozen?
“I’m checking under your skin to see if there’s a big ice cube there!”
Ye Siming couldn’t help but sneer, his handsome and arrogant eyes filled with indulgence for the child.
“I naturally wasn’t frozen because I’m not afraid of the cold. My heretic techniques involve cultivating fire.”
Gu Nuo’er asked softly, “Then why did you leave the place in the end?”
Elder Brother Siming wasn’t afraid of the cold and needed a place to stay.
There was no one in the Snow Domain. He should like it.
Unexpectedly, Ye Siming lowered his eyes slightly and said in a calm and indifferent voice—
“Because of loneliness.
“There wasn’t a single person there. Even birds won’t fly over.
“I stayed there for 300 years and had no one to talk to.
“I got tired of seeing the snow mountains getting more and more lofty every day..”
