Xuanlan did not disappoint her. With a wave of her long sleeves, the red petals that had fallen to the ground immediately sprouted into countless red gardenias.

Upon closer inspection, Qiao Qiu noticed that even the leaves of the gardenias had turned red.

Amazement is not enough to express Qiao Qiu's feelings at this moment. Seeing this sea of ​​red flowers, she even felt like crying. Although it was a bit sentimental, she still couldn't help but feel the urge to do so.

Xuanlan picked a flower and placed it in her hand. "These gardenias were dyed red with my immortal power. Originally, I wanted to wait until you accepted my proposal before showing them to you. Who knew... Well, since you're my wife, even if you don't agree to marry me right away, I'll still show them to you."

Qiao Qiu looked at the flowers in her hand; Xuan Lan had really gone to great lengths for her.

Being cared for like this by the person she loves, Qiao Qiu was touched even though she didn't say it. She understood very well that she was very happy to be cared for like this by the person she loves. If there was a way to take him out of this cursed world, she would definitely do it without hesitation.

"These flowers are the most beautiful flowers I have ever seen in my life. I will definitely engrave them all in my memory and remember what each one looks like."

Xuanlan happily embraced her and admired the flowers with her.

...

After making her decision, Qiao Qiu devoted herself to studying the composition of the curse every day in Shangqing Palace.

Xuan Lan wasn't lying; he indeed possessed the most comprehensive collection of books on curses. With him as a walking encyclopedia, Qiao Qiu's research on curses progressed rapidly, almost effortlessly.

However, as time went on, Xuanlan spent less and less time with her, and eventually he simply disappeared from her life.

Qiao Qiu: "..."

Wasn't this guy supposed to be idle for a million years? How come he's so busy now? I haven't seen him for almost half a month.

No matter what Xuanlan was doing, she couldn't leave Shangqing Palace.

Xuanlan took her ring. Once she leaves Shangqing Palace, she will continue down the path of courting death.

Unable to find Xuan Lan, Qiao Qiu had no choice but to settle down and study the curse.

She had researched most of these curses, and the method for breaking the curse created by Xuanlan differed greatly from what Xiaojie had told her. Could she still trust Xiaojie?

She trusted Xuanlan more than Xiaojie, and she was unwilling to doubt that Xuanlan had any ulterior motives.

But Xiao Jie was the first to pull her out of the abyss of pain. Regardless of its intentions, it had indeed done her a favor. She could stop trusting it, but she had to repay the kindness.

Qiao Qiu knew perfectly well that when Xiao Jie met her, it was almost gone. It was she who lit up the diamond, pulling it back from the brink of disappearing.

She lit up all the diamonds for it as a way of repaying it, but what happens after all the diamonds are lit up?

Will Xiao Jie do something to her?

Qiao Qiu had no idea that everything she was doing now was based on guessing from the smallest clues.

The research on the curse can be put to a close. Qiao Qiu once again calculated the time for Gu Yu's ascension.

Ten days?!

Qiao Qiu's eyes widened. Only such a short time left? Then... her ring still hasn't returned.

Xuanlan, where did you run off to?

In another place unseen by Qiao Qiu, clouds were piling up, thick leaden clouds that were almost about to fall, and beneath these clouds stood a person standing against the wind, with an unparalleled appearance that would captivate anyone who saw him.

Before him stood a supreme-grade divine weapon-refining furnace, its Bagua markings gleaming with golden light—all signs that a divine weapon of divine quality or higher was about to be born.

There was another person standing in the distance, and that was Wei Ya. He had now revealed his original appearance, which was delicate and beautiful, with a bit of a feminine air, but the look between his brows was very transcendent.

Wei Ya looked worriedly at the blue-clad man in the center of the leaden cloud. This tribulation lightning could kill a Saint Immortal. Could he withstand it?

The long-awaited tribulation lightning suddenly struck, a bolt of purplish-white lightning with a world-destroying force, hitting the man in blue squarely.

Wei Ya was startled and quickly checked on the man in blue to see if he was alright.

But he was completely unharmed; there wasn't even a burn mark on the hem of his clothes.

What happened? The lightning clearly struck, a lightning tribulation that would have startled even him, so why is Xuanlan unharmed?

Just as Wei Ya was filled with doubt, another bolt of lightning struck down.

This time he saw it clearly. Xuanlan waved his hand upwards, and a burst of immortal power dispersed the tribulation lightning.

Wei Ya: "..."

What kind of bizarre "operation" is this?

Then, as if in a dream, Wei Ya watched Xuan Lan casually wave his hand eighty-one times, and at the very end, he almost flicked his finger, wielding a burst of immortal power that shattered the tribulation lightning.

Watching the tribulation clouds slowly dissipate, watching the divine artifact fly out of the furnace, watching Xuanlan reach out and catch it...

Why are there such extraordinary people in this world?

Are you completely ignoring the tribulation clouds in the sky?!

Xuanlan grasped the ring, a happy smile spreading across her face.

Wei Ya vanished in a flash, reappearing beside Xuan Lan the next second. She glanced at the object in his hand and saw that it was a ring with mysterious runes that startled her.

Wei Ya quickly looked away and asked, "Why are you practicing something like this?"

"This is Qiu'er's ring. I'll refine it a bit." Xuan Lan put the furnace into his storage bag and put the ring away.

"So it's your wife's. No wonder you're so concerned. Let's talk as we walk. With such a commotion, all the immortals around here probably know about it," Wei Ya said.

"Um."

The two vanished from the world in an instant, leaving only a lingering glow.

...

Qiao Qiu waited at Shangqing Palace for eight days. During those eight days, she tried to send a message using the methods of the cultivation world, but it didn't work at all. Immortal power and spiritual power are different. She hadn't yet mastered them, and she had no idea how to use immortal power.

She was careless. How can she be a master like this?

Now that Gu Yu has come up, what will she use to continue teaching him?

Qiao Qiu waited for eight days and reflected on her actions for eight days. She decided to put the matter of the curse aside for the time being.

Just then, a figure flashed, and Xuanlan appeared in the center of the hall.

He was still dressed in the same blue robe, with two gold chains around his waist—one cinched at the waist, the other sloping down, with a jade pendant hanging from the middle of the sloping chain, and below the jade was a light blue tassel. Such embellishments seemed odd, but on him, they suited him perfectly.

He was the kind of person who looked good no matter what he wore. She had been full of anger, but it all vanished the moment she saw him.

Qiao Qiu couldn't help but feel a little depressed. She sat on the steps, hugged her knees, rested her chin on her knees, and her small face was full of a depressed expression.

Xuan Lan couldn't help but chuckle. He walked over and sat down beside her, looking at her and asking, "What's wrong? I've only been gone a few days, and you're already upset?" (For the latest chapters, please visit Tangkexing on your mobile phone.)
