— — —
The stone as obviously an illusion
Gu Changge saw through it the instant he laid his eyes upon it The illusion rippled as he walked through it
A s four walls were engraved with s that have lasted since the I the ancient rites of sacrifice that the Ancient I it were archaic visions of vast and glorious scenes that permeated the empty space, as the Supre beings, subjects, bowed in reverence and knocked their heads upon the ground as one, giving rise to a sound that would echo throughout the Upper Realm
At the forefront of the central-most as the Immortal Road[1]
[1 Quick Recap: Immortal Road is a portal to reach other realap in the door, reflecting a vast ancient world
Immortal aura fell like rain as wisps of iap in the portal
‘The Fairy Gate’
‘It would see knew its location for quite so it’
Gu Changge looked at the portal, as a ed at the corner of his , who had followed him inside
The smile on his face disappeared and returned to its usual calo in first once the Fairy Gate opens”
Gu Changge casually said as
“Of course, if you're worried that I'ainst you, you can also choose to stay outside”
He didn’t seem to have taken her prior co had already sensed several changes in Gu Changge's expression
Before, Gu Changge would always speak to her with a smile on his face
However, his eyes were now like ice
Such an attitude brought greater disco than his typical indifference
“I believe in you” Her voice subconsciously rose a pitch higher
Gu Changge glanced at her again, as he spoke with a smile, “That would be best” It wasn’t ’s clear and cold eyes were seeed
In truth, however, she felt a bitter taste in her e didn’t believe that she believed
Such an attitude was plain to see
‘Why did I say that?!’
Gu Changge's usual teant to the extre around
But noith one word, she had pulled thee one, perhaps even worse than that
Yue Mingkong felt a deep sense of regret, despondence even
She e; otherwise, he wouldn’t have been so sensitive to her comments
The Fairy Gate in front of her seemed to have lost its temptation to her
Her preparations over the course of the kong began to reflect
Since her regression, she didn’t want to take revenge on Gu Changge… she wanted his heart
It see’s current thoughts
He tossed his hands in the air with a look of resignation[2]
[2 Gu Changge threw his hands in the air, like “Duck this; I' think he’s given up]
He paced back and forth around the Fairy Gate, recalling all of the information he knew
‘There are only tays to open the Fairy Gate as of this e it to do so through the Ie from the Immortal Period]
‘I don't knohen it will open, but the Ancient Immortal Continent is bound to be in a state of chaos by then Such an event would easily attract the attention of hts flashed through Gu Changge’s mind, he came up with a plan
The I system used in the Immortal Period It was used in sacrifices, specifically to pray to the ihten the mundane mortals
‘As it happens, there’s a rather expensive copy of this script in the syste for 18,000 Destiny Points’
Without hesitation, Gu Changge quickly bought the item
Hum!
One by one, characters of the ancient script shone brightly like olden colour
Before long, the characters becarew In his ue immortal shadow
An additional piece of text appeared in Gu Changge's mind
‘I have the keys now’
A s found its way to his face
Unfortunately, Yue Mingkong had yet to notice such a change
She was still caught up in her thoughts, wondering how she should speak, wondering how she could apologize and e
She truly didn't want their relationshi+p to reach a freezing point yet again because of so like this
“I’o in first or should I? Once we’re inside, we’ll go our separate ways and deal with the Fairy Spirit within, on our own terently kong out of her thoughts She was a bit surprised, for it seee really could open the Fairy Gate ahead of time
She had waited in vain for over a e’s words, she became torn for a short while
It didn’t make any difference whether she went in first or second
How long did she prepare for the Fairy’s arrival?
Over a month
She even borrowed the Immortal Qi of this place to cultivate, her cultivation base had increased by leaps and bounds
In truth, she would find it difficult to accept, if she just gave up
However, when Yue Mingkong looked at Gu Changge, who stood right in front of her She had decided
She opened her o in”
“I'll stay outside to protect this place Don’t ise for what I said I’ve misunderstood you, and I won’t compete with you for the Fairy Spirit”
“If this doesn't prove uarantee that I won't fight back After all, even if I fight back, I wouldn’t be yourcalive up
As she said, this was the only way she could think of to prove her sincerity to Gu Changge
If Gu Changge didn't believe it, he could kill her
When that comes to pass, she would have no choice but to accept her fate
After all, she knew toowas actually not as calht about it, the e would truly leave her, never to return
She would rather Gu Changge harbour murderous intent for her, to kill her like he did in her previous life, rather than live a life where they were strangers to one another
For her, the latter was simply a torment worse than death
“How decisive of you…”
Even Gu Changge was slightly taken aback
As ato make such a choice
For her to allow a blatant strike loaded with killing intent?
He’d considered rit her teeth and weep, tearfully apologizing as she adht never occurred to him
If he didn’t believe her, she would rather die
‘Is she stupid?’
Naturally, Gu Changge didn’t take Yue Mingkong’s doubt to heart in the slightest
After all, she wasn’t wrong In fact, she was absolutely right!
It’s true that he’d always sche For a person like hiain and rationalism, it was difficult for him to be attracted to soluttonous body
There was no door to his heart, for hi short of a miracle[4]
[4 Direct Translation: “To a woman, it is even more difficult to walk to his heart, there is no possibility”]
‘Why htly, “How can I kill you?”
She was so stupid that he felt a bit bored
At this rate, he wouldn’t be able to tease her anymore
Today's incident , it is a matter of life and death
This woman loved him more than her own life
This was the kind of plot Gu Changge only ever expected to take place in roht that it would one day happen to him
Should he step forward and take her into his arentle words to her?
Gu Changge did none of that
To behave in such athe bounds between reality and fiction Even if Yue Mingkong was stupid, she easily would be able to see through such a facade
To do so would disrupt the gae, why can’t you killwas stunned, unable to coe's words
Did he accept her apology or not?
She was bewildered
“What would I kill you for? You’re far entle s replied, her heart in tatters
The only thing she wants to do now is to deter elsehas a reason
She wanted to find out why Gu Changge was so distant, why he didn’t seee raised his hand…
Hundreds of hts blooeous iht, its roots spreading across the four directions
Hum!
One after another, ancient and an to recite words froures appeared all around Figures of renown and ancestors, all kneeling on the ground, as they prayed and bowed to the ikong stared, looking over as well
These ancient and e force, all headed for the stone gate ahead
