Chapter 1894 - 1484: Who Is More to Be Pitied?

Heaven knows, at this moment, Gu Changsheng’s heart is in chaos!

Seeing the look of shock on Shi Wujue’s face, Gu Changsheng just wanted to say, she was more shocked than anyone, okay?

Who can tell her what exactly happened that made Shi Wujue so abnormal?

"No, it’s not like that, it can’t be like that... Gu Changsheng, who are you really? You’re not human, are you?" Shi Wujue shook his head and asked again.

"I’m not human? Damn, you’re the one who’s not human, your whole family isn’t human! Shi Wujue, are you crazy? What nonsense are you talking about?" Hearing these words, Gu Changsheng exploded on the spot.

Shi Wujue actually insulted her by saying she’s not human!

Damn it!

She would also like to be not human, but who could give her a god to be?

This is simply the most absurd statement Gu Changsheng has heard in both her past and present lives!

To actually dare say she’s not human!

"That’s not what I meant..." Shi Wujue, finally coming to a bit, said anxiously as Gu Changsheng yelled at him, "But tell me, why do the Sinful Sea Flowers of the Divine Relic revive and bloom because of you? The miracle has already faded away. Other than a god, who could make these Sinful Sea Flowers bloom fully again and shine with the vibrance of Love Flowers?"

"You ask me, and who am I supposed to ask? I’m still in a fog here, can’t figure things out! Damn, you’ve almost made me forget who I am!" Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng widened her eyes in disbelief and pointed to herself discontentedly, "But see clearly, I am Gu Changsheng, also Wuchang Changsheng, I am Fenghuang Changsheng, my father is Wuchang Taitian, my mother is Fenghuang Ruoshui! Their coffins are placed in the inn outside, I also have a son, whom you’ve met. You tell me, who else could I be? Shi Wujue, which way did you get confused, I don’t know, but I know, I am human! A hundred and ten percent human!"

"But..." Shi Wujue, hearing these words, his world-shocking face still carried a bewildered look, gazing at Gu Changsheng with a scrutinizing look...

Gu Changsheng truly lost to such a Shi Wujue, tugged at her evildoer’s clothes, seeking help.

Damn, this is really unspeakable, does she really have to recount her ancestors eighteen generations back to satisfy?

And just as Gu Changsheng and the two faced off in the Sinful Sea Flower Field, atop the Star Innate Tower, Ta You, who had been sitting in the Cold Pond for years as if it were a day, shivered all of a sudden, his weak body hidden beneath a wide white robe, and his long gray hair washed by the icy pond water trembled slightly...

The Holy Envoy Child, who had been watching by the pond, saw Ta You’s anomaly and immediately exclaimed, "Holy Master?!"

Without shifting his eyes from the moon, the void-like pupils as endless as the stars, Ta You heard the Holy Envoy Child’s exclamation, and in a desolate voice, murmured, "Sure enough... it’s her... she’s here..."

"Holy Master, who is it? Are you talking about Gu Changsheng? Didn’t you say long ago that she is the one you’ve been waiting for many years?" The Holy Envoy Child asked with a frown upon hearing this.

"Yes, she is the one I’ve been waiting for so long. Originally, I was still a little unsure, but now, it is truly certain, it’s her... really her..." Ta You’s voice, ancient and desolate, seemed to come from a distant time and space, infinitely void.

"What exactly is the Holy Master talking about?" The Holy Envoy Child, puzzled by his master’s words, showed a face full of confusion.

"I am not saying anything in particular, I just think that she, like me, is one of the most pitiable people under the universe..." Ta You’s voice was full of compassion and helplessness, as if he empathized with her.

"The Holy Master’s joking, how could Gu Changsheng be pitiable? Isn’t she the Southern Emperor Changsheng, wielding power over the world, the very first Empress in history, how could she be pitiable? It is the Holy Master who is truly the most pitiable, bound here, hard to break free..." The Holy Envoy Child retorted with a shake of his head upon hearing this.

In the icy pond, the gray hair washed by the pond water was lifeless, and Ta You, who sat desolate to the moon, chuckled, the laughter indescribably bleak, the ancient voice sounded again, with endless desolation, "Ha ha... who can be more pitiable than whom? I was born knowing my mission, so it’s not really pitiable, while those kept in the dark, unaware of the truth, are the most pitiable..."

"Holy Master?" The Holy Envoy Child, hearing this, grew even more confused.

"But that’s also okay, ignorance can be fearless, yet their insistence on pursuing the truth, their obsession, even I don’t know if it can be stopped, everything happened because of this obsession, how I wish they could be less persistent, living in the unknown might be a form of happiness, though the days might be short, they could be briefly happy without the grief of truth..."

Ta You was not one to talk a lot, even the Holy Envoy Child, who had been by his side for a long time, heard his master speak so much for the first time.

Yet, these words were ambiguous, and he still didn’t quite understand them.

However, his master’s desolate tone made the Holy Envoy Child feel a kind of empathetic sadness without reason...

"Holy Master, do you really not want to see them?" After a long while, the Holy Envoy Child still asked out the doubts in his heart.

The Holy Master had altered the checkpoints in the Star Innate Tower, making it so difficult, must truly not want to see them?

If not, why would he even bring out the Divine Relic Item?

"My existence is to wait, to wait for her appearance and arrival, but I both want and do not want to see her..." Upon hearing this, Ta You sighed and said with a pitiful voice.

In the pond, the small figure sitting desolate, as always, with a straight back, lifeless...

"Holy Master, what you said is a bit beyond me..." The Holy Envoy Child scratched his head, in fact, he had never understood his master’s words, always seeming so profound and unfathomable...

"Not understanding, that’s okay. Ignorance is actually bliss, little one, listen to my words: when you’re alive, never become obsessed, because all obsessions eventually become nothing, and the outcome often does not meet expectations..." Ta You’s weary voice trailed off, not caring whether the Holy Envoy Child understood or not.

In fact, the Holy Envoy Child indeed did not understand, but looking at his master’s demeanor, it was certain that there would be no explanation for him, so the Holy Envoy Child stopped speaking...

At the top of the Star Innate Tower, on the Astrolabe Platform where stars can be plucked by hand, the small, solitary back remains, the small figure standing guard to the side remains...

Utterly silent, unchanged for decades.

As if the conversation just held had never occurred...

...

In the Fifth Level of the Star Innate Tower, Yuan Bao knelt on the ground, looking at the empty surroundings of the Star Innate Tower, his round and smooth face full of anxiety, loudly calling out, "Lady? Master? Where are you? Where on earth are you? Come out! Yuan Bao is scared being alone here!"

That’s right!

In the Sinful Sea Flower Field, unless one severs all emotions and thoughts, they cannot escape.

And Yuan Bao, just happens to be an emotionless, loveless Little Eunuch!

When Gu Changsheng, Zhou Mu, and Shi Wujue, among others, were trapped in the Sinful Sea Flower Field and could not break free, the unfeeling Yuan Bao had long since withdrawn from the Illusionary Realm of the Sinful Sea Flower Field!

But, upon finding himself alone after withdrawing, Yuan Bao panicked!

Could he not panic?

For Yuan Bao, his master and mistress are his life, now their whereabouts unknown, how could he not worry?

"Oh... Master, Lady, where are you? Don’t scare Yuan Bao!"

"If something happens to you, Yuan Bao can only follow you!"

"Oh..."

In the Fifth Level of the Star Innate Tower, aside from Yuan Bao, the Little Eunuch, no one else was present, and Yuan Bao almost turned the Fifth Level of the Star Innate Tower upside down, unable to find any trace of his master and lady, kneeling on the ground, crying uncontrollably, his eyes red...

...

At this moment, in the Fifth Level of the Star Innate Tower, within the Illusionary Realm of the Sinful Sea Flower Field, Shi Wujue, in the face of Gu Changsheng’s strong denial, finally stopped bringing up what he had asked before!

Because he knew that even if he asked, he wouldn’t get an answer!

Everything seemed like a mystery, enveloping them, enveloping Gu Changsheng, with no one to provide them with answers, they are trapped within, unable to see beyond!

But then, who is an outsider?

Shi Wujue didn’t know, he only knew that Gu Changsheng’s group, calculated by him to this degree, was already deeply trapped, just like himself, without truth, without release!

Therefore, Shi Wujue fell into an unprecedented silence.

Gu Changsheng looked at the Sinful Sea Flowers blooming fervently all around, then at Zhou Mu, who was just as clueless as himself, shifted his gaze to the unusually silent Shi Wujue, and eventually could not bear the silence any longer. He nudged Shi Wujue with his foot, his mouth twitching as he said, "Still wondering if I’m human or ghost? I tell you, I’m still breathing..."

"..." Shi Wujue rolled his eyes at Gu Changsheng.

Gu Changsheng took no offense, casting a glance at the flourishing Sinful Sea Flowers around, mumbled, "So, how on earth do we get out?"

At this point, there should be no more pressing matter, right?

Damn it, her stomach was nearly growling with hunger!

"Plants wither and thrive, since the Sinful Sea Flowers have regained vigor, then, when the Sinful Sea Flowers naturally grow and wither, this Illusionary Realm of the Sinful Sea Flower Field will break on its own!" Shi Wujue, although unwilling to engage with Gu Changsheng, still answered truthfully.

"What?" Gu Changsheng, hearing this, immediately widened his eyes, impatiently asked, "How long is the blooming period of the Sinful Sea Flowers?"

Plants wither and thrive, flowers bloom and fall, only when the Sinful Sea Flowers wither will this Illusionary Realm break?

Then please, tell her, how long is the blooming period of the Sinful Sea Flowers, Gu Changsheng wouldn’t mind watching a grand spectacle of flowers withering and thriving, but Gu Changsheng might not mind, her stomach certainly does!
