Chapter 85: Memories of a Past Life
As soon as he finished speaking, Dao Xuanling unleashed his divine power, his illusory body forcefully emerging, wielding unparalleled divine energy capable of shaking the sun, moon, and stars. He gathered all the primordial energy in his hands, exerting his utmost effort to push the Dao Disc into the One-Line Heaven. Seeing this, all living beings followed him into the One-Line Heaven realm, and the three spirits immediately sealed the One-Line Heaven.
As the Dao Disc entered the Narrow Sky, the Narrow Sky underwent a sudden change. The previously balanced space was instantly filled with surging air currents and stalactites clashing together. The Dao Disc seemed to be repelled and was about to enter the Black Abyss of the Star Sea.
Upon seeing this, Dao Xuanling immediately said, "How can I let your unique life force slip away like this?" As he spoke, he made a decisive move, transforming his own spiritual essence and connecting it with the spirit, attaching it to the Dao Plate. Instantly, the One Line of Heavenly Star Stone stabilized, and everything returned to normal.
At that moment, Dao Xuan's spiritual body vanished into nothingness, leaving only the lotus pods on his body, which fell into the Dao plate.
After Dao Xuanling vanished, Xiaoyao Lang also woke up. He saw Yu Linglong looking at him with concern and wiping the cold sweat from his face.
When Yu Linglong saw that he had woken up, she said, "Yu Lang, did you have a nightmare?"
Xiaoyao Lang replied, "I don't know. Dreams only draw out familiar people and things, and never enter the realm of nothingness. What I just dreamed seemed real, but it didn't make sense."
Yu Linglong: "What do you mean?"
Xiaoyao Lang: "I dreamt that the territory of Shenzhou was actually derived from the Dao Disc born from chaos. The world was located in a narrow pass, which was sealed and isolated by the other realms."
Upon hearing this, Yu Linglong murmured, "Dao Disc, One Line of Sky, Seal."
Xiaoyao Lang: "Linglong, I have a feeling that this is my memory, but it's just a fragment."
Yu Linglong: "Yu Lang, did you mention in the dream how to break the seal on my virginity?"
Xiaoyao Lang: "No, but a primordial spirit said that as long as the spiritual consciousness carries the cultivation body, it can bypass the seal and go to other realms."
Yu Linglong: "The spirit carries the cultivation body, which must be the body of immortality."
Xiaoyao Lang: "I can't believe it or imagine it. How many years have passed? And that woman with the dragon body and human figure, I feel a deep pain after she disappeared."
Murong Hanchan suddenly said, "What dragon-bodied human statue? Don't people need to rest?"
Xiaoyao Lang laughed and said, "Chan'er, I'm sorry to disturb your rest! I'll go to sleep now!" After saying that, he looked at Yu Linglong innocently.
Yu Linglong smiled and watched Xiaoyao Lang slowly fall asleep.
After a night, Murong Hanchan bid farewell to Xiaoyao Lang, and Chunxiang also bid farewell to Yu Linglong.
Murong Hanchan hugged Xiaoyao Lang and said softly, "Brother Xiaoyao, Chan'er really can't bear to part with you!"
Xiaoyao Lang immediately said, "Chan'er, I'll accompany you to the Murong residence!"
Murong Hanchan released her grip and said, "No, you must go to Tianji Palace first. Come find Chan'er after you've taken care of things!"
Xiaoyao Lang asked in confusion, "I don't have anything to do!"
Murong Hanchan looked at Xiaoyao Lang and said with a smile, "You'll know when we get to Tianji Palace! Take care, Brother Xiaoyao!" After saying that, she turned around and rode away, but tears streamed down her face.
Seeing this, Xiaoyao Lang wanted to chase after her, but he stopped. Separation was inevitable, so why add to her sorrow? He whispered, "Chan'er, take care of yourself too." Watching her departing figure, even though Murong Hanchan couldn't hear him, his words were full of affection.
Yu Linglong stepped forward and said, "Yu Lang, don't overthink it. Breakups and reconciliations are normal."
Xiaoyao Lang nodded, helped Yu Linglong onto the carriage, and prepared to set off.
Just then, the proprietress arrived, carrying a package.
The proprietress called out, "Young Master Xiaoyao, the journey is long. I have prepared some dry food and fruit for you to eat on the road!" After saying that, she handed over the package.
Xiaoyao Lang reached out and grasped the landlady's hand, teasingly saying, "Thank you, I'm very satisfied with the inn. If I have the chance to come to Shanshui City again, I won't enter any other inn!"
The landlady felt a little nervous as her hand was held, but she didn't pull away. Her face flushed, and she said softly, "If you come again, I'll let you stay for free!"
Xiaoyao Lang took the package, glanced at her, and said boldly, "Alright! Take care! We'll meet again!" He then turned and rode away.
The proprietress smiled as she watched the carriage disappear into the distance.
During their journey, Yu Linglong suddenly asked, "Yu Lang, who is prettier, the landlady or Sister Xue?"
Xiaoyao Lang: "More or less!...Linglong, why are you asking me that?"
Yu Linglong: "The way they look at you isn't innocent; there's a tenderness in their eyes, you can't be unaware of that, can you?"
Upon hearing this, Xiaoyao Lang felt uneasy, wondering if the landlady knew about his affair with her. He guiltily replied, "Really? I didn't sense anything!"
Yu Linglong said calmly, "Yu Lang, it's not wrong for you to like or want to have several people. But if you betray even one of them, you will have made a grave mistake."
Xiaoyao Lang: "Linglong, how can you say that? I don't like anyone but Chan'er and you!"
Yu Linglong: I'm afraid not!
Xiaoyao Lang: "Linglong, why do you question me like this!?"
Yu Linglong said softly, "Although I don't know what happened between you and Jing Sanniang at Yanyang Tower, I can tell from her eyes that you hurt her deeply, and I was also very saddened to see that."
Xiaoyao Lang: "I am indeed very sorry to her, but heaven and earth can bear witness that I really did nothing to her."
Yu Linglong: "Yu Lang, I believe what you say. But you also saw Jing San Niang's sorrow and her deep affection. Are you really unmoved?"
Xiaoyao Lang: "I...I was also very upset at the time, but I couldn't accept her!"
Yu Linglong: "Why not? You've given your heart to her, so why not give up your initial feelings? If you accept her, wouldn't that save you both from suffering?"
Upon hearing this, Xiaoyao Lang was taken aback. He hadn't expected Yu Linglong to think this way. He said slowly, "Linglong, I know I was wrong. I will change my personality and stop joking with people." If he hadn't been joking with the landlady, she wouldn't have looked at him like that!
Yu Linglong: "Yu Lang is quite sincere; he finally knows where he went wrong!"
Xiaoyao Lang secretly broke out in a cold sweat. This Yu Linglong appeared gentle and considerate on the surface, but her heart was so terrifying.
Xiaoyao Lang: "Come to think of it, if I weren't naturally beautiful, you wouldn't have fallen for me, would you?"
Yu Linglong said calmly, "You should feel fortunate about this!"
Xiaoyao Lang boldly asked, "Why?"
Yu Linglong said softly, "Because I know that you are my karmic calamity. If I hadn't fallen in love with you, you would already be a dead soul under my control!"
Upon hearing this, Xiaoyao Lang remained silent for a moment before slowly replying, "So, I not only found a treasure, but I also saved my life."
Outside Longyang City, Ling Xueyan, leading the forces of Xiyu Manor, Jindao Village, and Shixiu Manor, had already captured the first stronghold in Longyang City.
Ling Xueyan took out the blueprints in the tent and analyzed the deployment.
Ling Xueyan: "Once we occupy this place, Yi Yunke will soon find out and will send reinforcements to Gaogu and Nanchuan. He will then lead his men straight to Tongcheng Road and trap us in the Chenghuan Mountain area."
Shi Jianfeng: "Therefore, we must be one step ahead of him and take down Gaogu and Nanchuan before he can send reinforcements."
Ling Xueyan: "That's right. As long as we control Gaogu and Nanchuan, we can launch a direct attack on Longyang City and fight him to the death."
Nie Han shouted, "Then what are we waiting for! We brothers in the mountain stronghold are the best at crossing mountains and valleys, so leave Gao Gu to me!"
Shi Jianfeng: "Then let me lead men to Nanchuan."
Ling Xueyan: "Alright, I'll head straight for Tongcheng Road and eliminate the spies along the way. After it's done, we'll meet up in Yuyang Village."
Shi Jianfeng: "Good!"
Nie Han: "No problem!"
