391 Ism only waiting for you (2/2)
This contradictory illusion made him feel a hazy sense of reality.
Speechless closed his eyes and rested for a while before slowly opening his eyes and taking slow steps forward.
Beneath his feet were snow-white clouds. Walking on the clouds felt like he was stepping on cotton. Occasionally, there would be a hole in the clouds, allowing him to see the distant ground through it. It was a deep abyss that did not seem to have an end.
One needed to be careful while walking on such clouds,
but Speechless began to increase his walking speed.
Before arriving, he did not want to arrive too quickly.
But after arriving, he began to feel eager.
“What a fool.”
Speechless gave a self-deprecating laugh. After walking on the ground made by clouds for a few minutes, he finally came in front of a gigantic stone door in the expanse of whiteness.
The door was the entrance to the Celestial domain.
“I’m finally here.”
Speechless felt mixed emotions as he looked at the door.
Suddenly, Speechless’ pupils contracted slightly as a flicker of surprise flashed in his eyes.
There was a figure standing beside the stone door!
A person had reached the Celestial domain before him!
Although Speechless had deliberately wasted a lot of time on his journey here, it was still a surprise that someone reached the Celestial domain before him. This was because very few trial-takers had the ability to ride the skyward water current into the Celestial domain.
“I never expected that there would be such hidden talents in such a minor rookie selection.”
Speechless reflected over this matter as he walked towards the door. Soon, he saw the figure’s face.
It was a girl.
It was a girl with short brown hair with a delicate beauty!
Speechless suddenly felt a sense of familiarity from the girl’s looks. He quickly approached and the girl noticed his arrival as she opened her brown eyes.
The girl stood quietly where she was and remained motionless. She did not speak either, as she quietly watched Speechless walking towards her.
The closer he was, the more Speechless felt that the girl he was apparently seeing for the first time was someone he had previously seen or known.
When he came to five meters away from the girl, Speechless suddenly said in surprise, “It’s you!”
Speechless remembered the girl. She was from a memory that was now covered in dust where she was a tiny figure, with the same brown hair and eyes.
“Mu, Mu, Mu…”
Speechless wanted to say out the girl’s name, but it was as if his memories were grass weighed down by a rock. It could not surface in his mind, so all he could do was say a single word of her name.
“Mu Yuesheng.”
Mu Yuesheng smiled and said softly, “Yue as in the moon, Sheng as in flute and pipes. Mu Yuesheng.”
Speechless laughed in a somewhat embarrassed manner. He said apologetically, “Sorry about that. I remember you, but for some reason, I couldn’t remember your name.”
Mu Yuesheng shook her head and said, “It’s alright. It’s been ten years after all.”
Speechless said with reflective emotions, “Yes, it’s been ten years. It’s been so long, and I never expected to meet you here.”
Mu Yuesheng smiled and remained silent.
Speechless fell silent for a moment and said softly, “It doesn’t seem like you just arrived. Why do you stay in front of the Celestial domain’s door and not enter? You must know that I would choose to come here, and you must know that I will not back down against anyone on this matter.”
Mu Yuesheng nodded and said, “I know, I’m only here to…wait.”
Speechless pricked up his eyebrows slightly and asked, “Waiting for who?”
Mu Yuesheng replied in a delicate manner, “For you.”
