Chapter 390 - You Have a Talen (1/2)

Gu Bailu sighed. “I’ll let you go this time, but remember, after you meet the person you’ve been waiting for, you must go to the place you belong. I will not show you any mercy if you linger any longer.”

“Okay.”

Four hours pa.s.sed as Feng Qingtian read all the stone walls.

In the meantime, Gu Bailu learned something about this empire, which was founded in primeval times when human beings were still divided into different tribes. At that time, a monarch emerged and established the empire.

Human beings didn’t have spiritual power back then, and the monarch relied purely on his wisdom.

However, the emperor abandoned everything, including his favorite priestess, and disappeared one day.

On the night he disappeared, the empire sank and was buried at the bottom of the ocean.

n.o.body knew where the emperor went.

The red-haired specter was unwilling to give up. She foresaw in a prophecy that he would reappear ten thousand years later.

So, she had been waiting here ever since, just to ask him if he had ever loved her.

Gu Bailu had a lot of mixed feelings about the ghost’s doggedness when she returned to the boat. Ten thousand years was a long time, even for ghosts.

She couldn’t imagine what it felt like to wait even a hundred years.

Gu Bailu told Feng Qingtian the female specter’s story, and Feng Qingtian simply smiled. “Not just ten thousand years, I can wait ten million years.”

Gu Bailu nodded. “You’ve been waiting for your former lover, except that you s.h.i.+fted your love to me halfway.”

“You’re being silly again. What do you want to eat, if not fish?” Feng Qingtian changed the topic.

Gu Bailu touched her belly. She was truly hungry after all that activity in the morning.
