"Either, you harbor ulterior motives towards me, or, you have a special relationship with me."
"You exist only at the edge of my senses, like a gentle breeze that arrives and departs swiftly."
"Perhaps every hundred years, I hear your voice just once.
I thought maybe I was sick or hallucinating."
"However," Ningtuo looked at Qi Yuan intently, "I am not ill, you truly exist."
"I didn't expect it, you really do exist!" Ningtuo's gaze towards Qi Yuan was extremely complicated, filled with fear, wariness, affection, and caution.
Many thoughts ran through Qi Yuan's mind after hearing these words.
He first heard Ningtuo's voice three months ago.
However, Ningtuo claimed centuries, even millennia, have passed in this world.
Is there a big gap in time?
"I have a superpower, sometimes I can hear others speak.
If I heard it, I might respond to you sometimes," Qi Yuan half-jokey, half-serious.
Anyway, it's probably impossible to explain clearly to an NPC.
