As the Universe Turns - Chapter 846
Chapter 846 Moon’s Heart Is in Suspense
“Now … where are we going now?”
Qianluo looked at the two people in front of her. Before Hua Weiyang appeared, she always felt that she and Xiao Chen were together no matter where they were. But now, she suddenly felt like an outsider who shouldn’t have appeared.
“Back to Lustless Heaven.” Xiao Chen looked at her and said.
“Lustless Heaven … shall I go too?”
Qianluo’s expression suddenly became somewhat stunned. It was as if the distance between her and Xiao Chen had never become so far in such a short period of time. Even at this moment, he was standing right in front of him, as far away as the horizon.
“The people of Immortal Alliance will definitely come again. Right now, only Lustless Heaven is the safest.”
“Oh … Oh.”
Qianluo lowered her head. Originally, she had been longing to visit his Lustless Heaven, but now, for some reason, her heart became a little heavy …
…
A few days later, the three of them finally returned to Lustless Heaven. However, the clouds were vast and boundless. Immortal islands appeared one after another. Qianluo had never been to such a high altitude before. Suddenly, it was as if he was in the Immortal Dimension. Clouds and mist surrounded him, and it was as unreal as a dream.
“This … this is Lustless Heaven …”
Qianluo was stunned. Even though she had imagined what kind of place this place was before she came here, when she really arrived, she realized that this feeling of being in the situation was completely different from what she had imagined.
Borrowing the floating islands of Spiritual Energy, the three of them were like immortals flying through the clouds, able to walk on the vast clouds as if they were walking on flat ground.
“This is simply … this is simply too unbelievable …”
Looking at the islands surrounded by spiritual energy in the sky, Qianluo felt as if she was in a dream. On those islands, there were actually waterfalls hanging down. The sunlight shone on the water mist, forming brilliant rainbows. However, it was unknown where the water finally landed.
After a while, he could already see the pavilions above Lustless Heaven from afar. There were also flower trees and petals floating in the clouds. If it wasn’t for the Immortal Dimension, how could there be such a scene?
“This is an ancient era, left behind by a Fairy, and left behind an extremely heavy restriction outside Lustless Heaven.”
Xiao Chen said indifferently. Qianluo was stunned. The ancient Fairy he was talking about now must be the real Fairy. It was definitely not a mortal. Most people thought that there were no immortals in this world, but how could they know that the world was so big? How could mortals see a corner of it? It was like a fish in a pond, not knowing how vast the pond was.
Qianluo slowly came back to his senses, but when he saw Xiao Chen’s cold face, he couldn’t help but be stunned. Next to him, Hua Weiyang smiled faintly, “He’s always like this. As long as he comes back here, he won’t laugh again.”
“Why?”
These few days, Qianluo was no longer the same as that day, these days he would talk to Hua Weiyang, not so unfamiliar.
Hua Weiyang smiled and said, “He is the master of Lustless Heaven. If he talks and laughs with people all day, how can he suppress the tens of thousands of disciples below?”
“Tens of thousands of disciples, so many people …”
Qianluo knew that her previous sentence was a joke, but hearing the latter sentence, there were actually so many disciples in Lustless Heaven, so he couldn’t help but be stunned. Hua Weiyang smiled and continued, “If those sects below Lustless Heaven were included, there would be a total of 273,000 people.”
“Twenty … two hundred and seventy thousand people!” Qianluo was even more stunned. She never expected that Xiao Chen would actually be so powerful here …
As the three of them spoke, they had already entered Lustless Heaven. Disciples were welcoming them on both sides, and Madam Xian Shu, Master of Moon Valley, and Yang Xiaoran and the others were also heading this way.
“Welcome, Excellency–”
Everyone’s voices were neat as Qianluo walked beside Xiao Chen. This was her first time here, and it was also the first time she had seen such a scene. It was inevitable that her expression was somewhat unnatural.
“Who is she” Yang Xiaoran’s eyes were sharp as she saw Qianluo from afar. She couldn’t help but silently mutter in her heart, “Who is this woman walking beside Xiao Chen?”
As for Madam Xian Shu and Master of Moon Valley, they naturally saw her. The expression on Madam Xian Shu’s face did not change, but Master of Moon Valley could not help but frown. Who was this woman? Why did you come back with Excellency and Palace Master? Moreover, it’s strange to be so close to Excellency …
The three of them cupped their hands in front of Xiao Chen and Hua Weiyang. Master of Moon Valley glanced at Qianluo and asked, “Excellency, this is …”
Normally, as long as Madam Xian Shu was present in the past, Moon would not ask Xiao Chen about anything first. Today, however, it was a little abnormal. Hua Weiyang said, “She is Excellency’s friend. She is a good host and must not lose her manners.”
“My, my name is Luo Die. Hello …”
Qianluo lowered her head. She had just arrived at an unfamiliar place, but her expression was still very unnatural. Many disciples in the distance stared at her motionlessly, their faces a little dumbfounded.
“Luo Die … is a good name.”
Master of Moon Valley chuckled and walked over to her. He looked her up and down and smiled sweetly, “Miss Luo Die, you don’t seem to be one of us, do you?”
“I…”
Qianluo didn’t know how to answer for a moment. Xiao Chen said, “Moon, take her to the Clear Water Cloud Platform to rest first.”
“Yes, Your Excellency.”
Master of Moon Valley nodded and smiled. He walked closer to Qianluo and smiled, “Miss Luo Die, come with me …”
“Yes, yes …”
Qianluo followed her, took a few steps, turned around, looked at Xiao Chen, stopped looking at him, and followed Master of Moon Valley to the other side.
It wasn’t until the afternoon when Xiao Chen finished dealing with some matters that he brought the strange flood dragon back to the Secret Devil Cliff. However, when he saw the strange flood dragon’s body gradually shrinking and was about to drill into the black pond, Xiao Chen suddenly called out to him, “Vicious, wait.”
The strange flood dragon understood human nature and could already understand human language. It immediately stopped and flew back to the cliff. Its two blood-red eyes stared at Xiao Chen without turning.
Xiao Chen took a few steps closer to it and asked with a frown, “Vicious, let me ask you, did you and Wei Yang meet anyone in the forest that day?”
After a while, the strange flood dragon remained motionless, as if it was in a daze. Xiao Chen couldn’t help but frown and said again, “I’m asking you, why don’t you speak?”
(hostile:???)
“Forget it, nod or shake your head.” Xiao Chen flicked his sleeve, and the strange flood dragon still watched him remain motionless. In the end, it shook its head.
“Yes, let’s go back.”
Xiao Chen still frowned slightly as he watched the strange flood dragon plunge into the water. He thought to himself that although hostility was human, it should not lie. Could it be that he was thinking too much?
…
A few days later, Xiao Chen arrived at the Jade Water Cloud Platform. The scenery here was quiet, full of spiritual energy, and under the sunlight. However, he saw numerous immortal islands floating. The islands were filled with peach blossoms. When the wind blew, the peach blossoms floated down into the sea of clouds with the wind. In the end, he didn’t know where they went.
At this moment, there was a Daoist figure standing on an immortal island. That person was dressed in a light red robe, and his clothes moved with the wind. It was Qianluo that reflected the peach blossoms in the sky.
Xiao Chen touched his feet and lightly landed on the island. Seeing that he was here, Qianluo’s gloomy mood disappeared. He immediately smiled and said, “Childe Xiao, you’re here.”
“Mm …”
Xiao Chen placed his left hand behind his back and his right hand on his chest. He gently landed in front of her in the wind. He was as handsome as an immortal in the Heaven Realm, causing the peach blossoms on the island to fly and float. For a moment, Qianluo couldn’t help but be a little dumbfounded.
“Are you still used to living on the island these days?”
It wasn’t until Xiao Chen spoke that Qianluo regained his senses and nodded with a smile, “Mm, I’m fine here. Why is Childe free to come over today?”
Xiao Chen slowly walked to the edge of the Immortal Island and looked at the rising and falling sea of clouds. “Let me take a look. This Jade Water Cloud Platform is full of spiritual energy. You can cultivate here without being disturbed. As for the rest of Lustless Heaven, you can go wherever you want. There is no need to be restrained. There is only one place, the sea of clouds behind Lustless Heaven. You cannot go there.”
“Yes, Luo Die knows.”
Qianluo smiled and nodded. Even if there was only one person in his heart, even if she could only look at his back like this, even if she just said a few words to him, her heart would still feel warm.
“Yes.”
Xiao Chen nodded. He turned around to look at her and said something. When twilight fell, he left again. Qianluo looked at his floating figure, as if at this moment, the loneliness in the surroundings, like the shadow of dusk, slowly engulfed her again.
That night, Moon slowly rose from the sea of clouds and reflected the entire sea of clouds into a silver color. This was a scenery that could not be seen in the world below.
Ever since Xiao Chen came today, Qianluo had been very worried. Now that he was on the island, under the reflection of Moon, there seemed to be nowhere to hide the indescribable emotions hidden in his heart.
“Sigh …”
Finally, a faint sigh entered the sea of clouds. As the peach blossoms disappeared, Qianluo had no intention of sleeping that night. She left the Azure Water Cloud Platform and walked around. The entire Lustless Heaven was very big, but there shouldn’t be any restrictions inside. She just had to strictly follow Xiao Chen’s instructions and not go to the sea of clouds behind Lustless Heaven.
It was about midnight, and the moon was as bright as day, illuminating the entire Lustless Heaven. Qianluo was still wandering aimlessly. At this moment, a woman’s voice suddenly sounded not far away, startling her.
“Are you the … friend Excellency brought back that day?”
Her voice was as clear as a silver bell and very pleasant to hear. Qianluo turned around and saw a figure standing on a nearby hillside. She whispered, “You, who are you?”
“My name is Zi Yuan. I’m from Night Shade.”
The woman slowly walked down, but when she saw that she was wearing a purple robe, the bright moonlight shone on her body. It was as if a faint purple glow had shrouded her body. She was Zi Yuan.
“Oh, oh …”
Qianluo nodded, “I’m Childe Xiao’s friend. My name is … Luo Die.”
“Very good.”
Zi Yuan smiled and said.
“Ah? What …”
Qianluo didn’t understand what she meant and looked at her with a puzzled expression. Zi Yuan smiled again, “I said very well, Excellency has very few friends. It’s good that you can be Excellency’s friend.”
“This … this …”
Qianluo slowly lowered her head, wanting to write down her thoughts, but she wanted to tell someone. After a while, she raised her head again and looked at Zi Yuan in front of her. “Can you tell me something about Childe Xiao?” She asked.
Only now did she seem to realize that she knew nothing about Xiao Chen. In Xiao Chen’s past, she had never participated. She didn’t know, she didn’t know anything … She didn’t know why he was always cold, but sometimes his eyes were clearly not so cold.
“Alright.”
Zi Yuan smiled faintly and looked at a tall cliff. She smiled and said, “Follow me.” As soon as he finished speaking, he gently tapped his toes and used the Wind Riding Technique to head towards the cliff. Qianluo was stunned for a moment, and she immediately regained her senses. She used her qinggong and climbed up the cliff.
