Purple Dawn Till Dusk: Dearest through the time

Chapter 454: Run...

"Does this remind you of something?" Modama's smile grew bigger. "Something that happened six years ago between Luna and you, to be precise."

Xiao Tianyao's eyes hardened as he tried to keep his anger at bay and thought about this clearly. He glanced at Senja once again.

She was in dreamy like expression as she held her daggers in front of her.

Afterward, Xiao Tianyao rushed toward Modama, ready to slice him into pieces. He didn't deserve to live.

Modama's expression was one that thought Xiao Tianyao's decision was ridiculous, he didn't even draw his sword and only dodged Xiao Tianyao's attack.

He moved forward and when Xiao Tianyao was about to cut his head, Senja's figure was in the way of the range of his attack, she stood emotionlessly in front of Modama, shielding him with her own body.

Shocked and fear were written on Xiao Tianyao's face. He changed the direction of his attack, as consequences, he suffered backlash from it. Blood pooled in his throat, but he swallowed it.

Not yet recover from the backlash, Senja dashed toward him and swung her dagger dangerously. Yet, Xiao Tianyao managed to escape from her attack just in time.

"How is it? Does this remind you of the past?" Modama reiterated his words playfully. He still thought that Xiao Tianyao was still couldn't recall his memory. "Do you still not remember it?"

Senja attack him again and this time more vicious.

In the end, Xiao Tianyao grabbed her hand and knocked down the dagger in her hand, yet Senja raised her feet and managed to kick his chest, force Xiao Tianyao to retreat a few steps back.

"She is feisty, isn't she?" Modama commented, looking very happy with the scene that was unfolded in front of his eyes. This was the best part that he liked the most from his manipulation.

If it wasn't for Gong Xu interrupted him six years ago, he would like to see how Xiao Tianyao had killed Luna and the pain in his eyes.

He didn't have a chance to see it six years ago, but he would see it now for sure.

Modama's eyes were gleaming with excitement.

"Let me tell you" Modama drawled while Senja was attacking Xiao Tianyao, the wound on his back started to hinder his movement. "It wasn't Gong Xu that had killed Luna, but it was you!" Modama said and made it a bit dramatic than it supposed to.

However, looking at Xiao Tianyao calmness and lack of surprised, Modama furrowed his eyebrows, didn't like this reaction.

At that time, Xiao Tianyao managed to tackle Senja down and pushed her to the ground, her hand was on her back as he pushed her head to keep her still, yet Senja still struggled to wriggle and twist her body.

"I am sorry" Xiao Tianyao whispered when he saw Senja under him, he stilled his heard and hit her head hard enough to make her unconscious.

After Senja didn't move anymore, he released his grip on her wrist and cradled her in his arms.

Xiao Tianyao didn't like this. Not a bit. He hurt her before and now he hurt her again.

"You knocked her out." Modama stated. "Impressive!"

"I swear, I will kill you!" Xiao Tianyao seethed. He shot a dagger look at him.

"It was her right, who fixed your memory?" He asked, bemused with his own question. "Her ability is impressive if I could say."

Xiao Tianyao didn't answer him, he looked at the direction of the fortress and pick Senja up.

"How does it feel to kill your own wife?" Modama kept talking. "Now, you will feel it. How does it feel the love of your live wants to kill you"

Xiao Tianyao kept walking away. His only focus was the girl in his arms. He wouldn't give Modama the satisfaction to see how broken he was by the mention of his past or by hurting Senja. So he kept walking.

There would be a day that he would stab his sword deep into his heart, so he could feel the pain.

Modama's voice was fading away as Xiao Tianyao walked far away from him. That insane person only came to trigger whatever he put on Senja and didn't have any intention to fight him.

Moreover, the wound on his back was quite deep, if he forced himself to fight Modama off, he would black out in the process due to lost blood. Not to mention the backlash that he suffered.

If something happened to him, Senja would be more in danger. So, for now, brought Senja to the safest place was Xiao Tianyao main priority.

He walked a mile away with the unconscious Senja in his arms and blood printed on his every step.

The moment he arrived at the main fortress, the first guard who spotted him run after him and shouted to the other guards for assistance.

Many guards came for help.

.....

"You shouldn't be here" Xiao Jun voice traveled to Xiao Tianyao's ears.

It had been ten hours since they got back at the fortress and ever since Senja still didn't awake. Xiao Tianyao was beyond worry for her.

"Did I knock her too hard?" Xiao Tianyao stroked Senja's hand lovingly.

"Well you don't need to worry, since she had strong head that required to hit her harder." Xiao Jun tried to warm the cold atmosphere, but the glare from his brother turned him frozen. "It was joke" He said sheepishly.

"You will not kill her with only a knock on the head." Xiao Jun reassured his brother who was overly worry over his wife.

Xiao Tianyao didn't reply, he just turned his attention back at Senja.

"You need to take a rest your wound needs to heal properly." Xiao Jun advised him.

Yet, Xiao Tianyao didn't heed him once again.

Tired of being ignored, Xiao Jun stood up. "I will get your medicine. " And he left the room.

Xiao Tianyao glanced at the direction of the door when Xiao Jun closed it. Senja should have woken up at this time, but it seemed she still in her deep slumber.

Xiao Tianyao's mind unconsciously remembered how his feeling when Senja started to attack him with killing intent, he wonder that was the same feeling that Luna felt when he started attacking her?

It was a horrible feeling.

It wouldn't only kill one person, but it would also kill both. If Luna didn't manipulate his memory, he would have lost his mind the moment he knew that he had killed her with his own hand.

Xiao Tianyao raised his hand and kneaded his aching head. It was so quiet tonight, after the chaos that he had made.

" un"

Xiao Tianyao whipped his head at Senja when he heard the soft voice of Senja, she was awake. A relief smiled appeared on his lips when he saw her eyes gradually opened.

"How do you feel?" Xiao Tianyao crouched closer at her and grabbed a glass of water from the bedside that he had prepared.

"un."

"What?" Xiao Tianyao lowered his head into Senja's lips. She seemed struggled to say something. "What did you say?"

Senja tried to talk again, but it was getting harder. She didn't want Xiao Tianyao near her, but instead he was crouching down and got closer at her.

Xiao Tianyao tilted his head and looked at Senja's foggy eyes. Her eyebrows wrinkled in concentration. She was trying to say something, but Xiao Tianyao didn't get what she was going to say. It made her frustrated.

"What did you need?" Once again Xiao Tianyao put his ear near her lips.

Senja mustered her stranged and made this her last attempt to say it.

"Run."

Xiao Tianyao raised his head and with confusion he reiterated. "Run?"
