Chapter 586 Tao Yao's Unique Weakness
Chapter 586 Tao Yao's Unique Weakness
That heartfelt question, tinged with an uncontrollable tremor, echoed softly in the cozy room.
The air seemed to freeze at that moment.
The gentle curve of Tao Yao's face froze for a moment.
She looked at Fei Ying, at the profound pain and helplessness revealed in those clear, cold eyes after she had analyzed herself, and a soft spot in her heart was gently pricked.
She paused for a moment.
Immediately, that brief moment of surprise was replaced by a gentler smile.
"Hizakura doesn't need to worry about these things at all."
Tao Yao's voice was very soft, as if she was afraid of disturbing something.
"After all, I don't think there's anything truly perfect in this world."
Her fingers unconsciously traced circles on the soft fabric of the sofa.
"Humans are like this, and so are fairies."
These words should have been comforting.
However, when it reached Sakura's ears, it had no effect whatsoever.
She fell into a brief silence.
His tense body didn't relax at all; instead, his gaze toward Tao Yao became even more focused and complex.
She did not continue speaking.
But everything seemed to be understood without being said.
Yes, it's not perfect.
But what about the peach blossoms before us?
Hiiro silently asked herself this question.
Since we met, this bad woman has always been shrouded in mystery.
Fei Ying had long suspected that Tao Yao was most likely a fairy.
And Tao Yao must know that she has already guessed it.
Between them, there was a wonderful unspoken understanding, neither willing to take the initiative to break the ice, for fear of affecting their hard-won relationship.
But at this moment, it wasn't hard to read Fei Ying's eyes.
If Tao Yao is a fairy...
In Fei Ying's eyes at this moment, Tao Yao was undoubtedly the most perfect fairy.
Unlike the two demonic calamities she had encountered before, who possessed devastating power but whose combat skills were as crude as those of a brute.
Tao Yao could teach her, and she could master those incredible combat techniques as easily as eating and drinking.
That's why Fei Ying was able to feel Tao Yao's unfathomable terror even more.
She couldn't even imagine what this wicked woman would be like when she got serious.
That's why she made that assumption.
If in the future, there truly exists a fairy of the same level as Tao Yao as an enemy.
Can I really defeat him?
The answer is obvious.
She didn't think that she, who had already reached her limit, would be a match for that kind of being.
That heavy gaze caused Tao Yao's smile to fade slightly.
She tilted her head slightly, a perfectly measured hint of confusion appearing in her clear eyes.
"what happened?"
Did I say something wrong?
Tao Yao blinked, and that cunning look that belonged to a bad woman quietly resurfaced.
"But I really don't believe that there are fairies without any weaknesses."
She paused, her voice becoming even softer, with a hint of persuasion.
"Maybe, I mean maybe."
"Even if in the future, there really are opponents that Hizakura cannot defeat, it does not mean that the opponent is invincible."
"I believe that you, Fei Ying, will be able to use your clever mind to find a way to solve all the troubles and difficulties that others think are impossible to solve."
These words finally made Hiyori's tense nerves relax a little.
That heavy worry was somewhat alleviated by this almost blind trust.
She looked at Tao Yao, at that face that always carried a gentle curve, and the bitterness in her heart gradually melted away, turning into a faint warmth.
The atmosphere then became more relaxed.
A faint, slightly playful smile curved at the corners of Fei Ying's lips.
"Does Tao Yao, who is so powerful, also have weaknesses?"
As soon as the question was asked, Tao Yao smiled.
The smile was bright and radiant, carrying a hint of triumph.
"of course."
She admitted it without hesitation.
"However, weaknesses are usually secrets that you can't tell others."
She deliberately drew out her words, the teasing undertones obvious.
"It's really offensive of Hizakura to ask that so directly."
Fei Ying felt a little embarrassed by what she said, and the smile that had finally appeared disappeared.
"I see."
Her voice regained its cool and clear tone.
"Then let's pretend I didn't ask, Tao Yao."
"No."
Tao Yao shook her head, her smile widening.
She slowly moved closer to Fei Ying, and that familiar, sweet scent instantly enveloped Fei Ying.
"But if it's Hizakura, I don't need to keep any secrets."
Her voice was low and had a seductive, almost bewitching quality.
Before Fei Ying could react, warm breath brushed past her ear.
"Listen carefully, my weakness is..."
Tao Yao leaned close to her ear and whispered a few words in a breathy voice that only the two of them could hear.
next second.
Hiyori froze completely.
She widened her eyes in disbelief and turned her head to look at the pretty face so close to hers, smiling like a sly fox.
The indescribable shock caused her mind to go blank for a moment.
Immediately afterwards, that shock transformed into a deep sense of helplessness and doting affection.
She smiled bitterly, her voice even carrying a hint of hoarseness that she herself was unaware of.
"This is utterly reckless..."
"How could I be your weakness, Tao Yao?"
“Of course, Sakura is my weakness.” Tao Yao’s answer was matter-of-fact and without the slightest hesitation.
She just looked at Fei Ying quietly, her clear eyes filled with an unyielding tenderness and earnestness.
Hiiro met her gaze.
The sense of powerlessness stemming from his own weakness was gradually replaced by an indescribable joy that almost filled his heart.
Yes, she cares about me, and she sees me as her only weakness.
Is there anything more reassuring than this?
A gentle smile, genuine and heartfelt, finally blossomed on Fei Ying's usually aloof face.
"alright."
She nodded gently, her resigned demeanor tinged with sweetness.
"That peach blossom is also my weakness."
The two exchanged a smile, and the heavy atmosphere from before vanished in an instant.
After a long while, Tao Yao's smile gradually faded, and she regained her composure.
Her expression turned serious.
"Hiyō, based on my limited understanding of fairies, there are indeed many powerful fairies in this world."
Her voice was steady and clear, carrying a convincing power.
"But please believe me, there is no such thing as an absolutely perfect fairy."
"At most, there are only those kinds of near-perfect fairies."
"And everyone has weaknesses."
Tao Yao looked into Fei Ying's eyes and said, word by word.
"The method of judgment is also very simple."
"Unless one is without desire or wants."
"Otherwise, what matters is weakness."
"If used properly, even mortals can kill gods."
