However, the commoners wouldn't know what the love knot bracelet meant to Moon God.
Once they'd met each other, they were bound to be together in their next lives.
Back then, she was still a puny Suzumiya Bi gets u when she gave the love knot bracelet to Ye Fan.
In China's culture, that was deemed as a token of love between Ye Fan and her.
However, fate was cruel.
When she became Moon God, Ye Fan had charged right into Chu Sect.
Evidently, fate had always been in their way.
No matter how many times Moon God tried to forget about that man, she'd failed.
Not only did time not help her forget about Ye Fan, but it had made it worse. Like wine, her longing for him had only gotten more intense over time.
“Have you not moved on from him yet?” Moon God's voice rang out in her mind.
“I'm sorry, Moon God. 1-1 just feel like I've let Master down.”
After over two years, the martial arts world had gone through a series of changes. It was safe to assume that people like King of Fighters and Sword Saint had already forgotten about Ye Fan.
However, Suzumiya Eigetsu was not one of them.
In fact, every time she closed her eyes, she could still see the scene in her mind whereby the martial arts world from all the countries had gathered up around Ye Fan.
Although she didn't see Ye Fan committing suicide with her own eyes, she knew he'd descended into hopelessness at that time.
“As I've said before, I'll be there whenever Master needs me, be it dead or alive. However, I wasn't there when Master needed me the most. If I was by Master's side that day, he wouldn't have died.” Although it had been two years, Suzumiya Eigetsu would still weep every time she thought about the past.
Ultimately, she still thought she was responsible for
Ye Fan's death. What happened to Master is my fault.
“I'm sorry, Eigetsu. It's all my fault. I was the one who insisted on going back to Japan. I hope you can understand my point of view. As Japan's mightiest god, I can't risk my countrymen for an outsider,” Tsukuyomi apologized.
Asa matter of fact, Tsukuyomi had seen it coming. She knew Chu Sect was threatening her with the lives of the Japanese people. She knew it was just a trick by Chu Yuan. However, she still had to head back because it was her mission and duty to protect her people.
As she expected, the moment Demonic Duo of Chu Sect saw Tsukuyomi heading back, they left right away.
After all, Chu Sect's main purpose was to kill Ye Fan.
“Moon God, I understand. I don't blame you. It's just that I feel like I've let Master down.” The more Suzumiya Eigetsu thought about what happened, the worse she felt. It was so bad that her guilt had affected Tsukuyomi's emotional intelligence.
Since the body had two souls in it, they could affect each other.
“Why don't we pay India a visit? If you don't go look for him, I doubt you'd ever have closure.” Helpless, Tsukuyomi could only decide to look for Ve Fan in India.
Indeed, there were rumors of Ye Fan being alive in the past two years.
At first, martial arts worlds from all over the world were paying attention to these rumors. After a while, everyone had gotten too used to the rumors and just ignored them.
However, there was an exception.
And that was Moon God.
Regardless of rumors or not, she'd always visit the scene to investigate whenever she heard such news.
Within the past two years, Moon God had visited the foreign countries more than a dozen times to look for Ye Fan.
Although most of the time these rumors were baseless, Moon God would still look for him.
That was because she was unwilling to give up on any opportunity to look for him. So what if those were just rumors? So what if I've been fooled over a thousand times? No matter how slim of a chance it is, I'd still grab them as they come.
Just like that, they set out for India that night. Once again, she was on a journey to look for Ye Fan.
Meanwhile, in Folo Palace, King Folo, Haibu, and Bapei had been healing themselves for days. By then, they'd healed up to seventy percent of the injuries caused by Ye Fan.
Haibu looked at his scarred body and uttered in despair, “Chu Tianfan was ruthless! We've already used the healing oil passed down to us by our ancestors, and yet, we haven't recovered fully after more than ten days.”
“Be grateful, will you? You're lucky enough to still be alive!” Bapei exclaimed.
