Soon three months passed as we lived together and time flew like wind. Days were going so peacefully that I almost forgot about my so called 'journey'. Ahem.
Sitting on pavilion at the peak of the mountain I was writing with a quill pen on a yellow page notebook.
Sitting across me, Mei was reading one of my many books of theory of immortality. Her brows were furrowed as she concentrated on the content but that didn't diminish her beauty.
The book I was writing was a journal in which I detailed my experience of while going through the soul merging and the making of the Star dust and black hole physique.
The most amazing discovery was that a natural born soul was tenacious enough to even shape black hole according to its need. Of course my cosmic bloodline also helped but the force required to fight against a black hole that dense is still scary.
The mass of my body right now can increase to be heavier than many stars. Which is, to be honest quite cool. I can level down moutain just by being on them.
Power sure is addictive. "heh" a smug smile came upon my face as I fully indulged in vanity.
Mei who was sitting across me heard it.
She looked at me with curiousity and asked softly.
"What's wrong?"
I looked at her curious and innocent face as I asked her my own question.
"What did you feel like when you actually began to become strong?"
Mei smiled and said after a small time "I left the realm as soon as I became strong enough or met bottleneck at my cultivation. As for how I felt....it was exhilarating at first but soon the burdens that came with it overshadowed the happiness."
I seriously thought about what she said and fell into deep thought. It's true that with great power comes great responsibilities. Even though Mei is sitting here with him, her clones are still roaming the lower realms of eastern starry sky as the ancestor of immortal temple she hailed from.
Even though the the temple just taught her the mortal cultivation techniques but she still had to do her duties of helping them even after ascending. This is how people are, they neglect you when you are useless to them and expect favours from you once you are successful. There is nothing wrong with this train of thought but the ugliness of human psychology is still visible.
Suddenly an idea came to my mind as I asked with a playful grin "Hmm....right.... I am planning to continue my journey since there are some people I have to meet."
As soon as I said that Mei's expression turned extremely sorrowful.
Dark clouds covered the sky and it started raining suddenly. It felt as if the world was going to end.
Since this planet was made from Mei's soul essence her change in emotions can influence the climate here, consciously or unconsciously.
"You... you ....you....when?" Mei stuttered to say her words but after a long time only one words came from her mouth before she started sobbing silently while biting her lips.
"Today. But hear me out....do you want to come with me?" He couldn't bear to keep teasing her after seeing her face and directly asked her.
The storm brewing in the sky suddenly stopped as if the whole world had stopped the wind also ceased to blow. It was as if the gods have quietened every creature of the world.
Mei stayed silent for a minute before asking "What did you say?"
"I asked if you want to come with me?" I said with a sincere expression on my face.
Mei's expression changed as if the spring had came upon the barren plains.
She stood up from her seat and ran into my arms before saying "Yes!"
I smiled as I hugged her and said with a serious expression "But before that we have to do something more important."
Mei was surprised and asked "What?"
Seeing her cute face I kissed her forehead and whispered in her ears "Of course, we have to get married."
Mei's eye widened but soon an ecstatic expression formed on her face as her eyes narrowed from delight.
