"You wanted me to be your maid, did you forget that?" She said in a mischievous voice.
"..." He had nothing to say.
Although he wanted her to be his maid but the boy just intended to make her feel bitter about it and refuse his unreasonable condition.
Because a goddess becoming the maid of a mortal was a humiliation to the divine being. Even a princess as the maid of someone else lower in status would be a disgrace to them.
Yet Cang Xue failed his plan and accepted to be his maid open-heartedly because her love for this guy was immense.
Meng Long saw the other students had already finished at least one-fourth of descending Heaven's Staircase.
The steps to the land were dangerous as a slight mistake could cause anyone free fall from the sky and nobody knew how bad their ending would be for this mishap.
There were around two thousand steps from Heaven's Staircase to the ground. So everyone carefully walked down on descending stairs.
Previously, if they fell they had a fluffy artificial cloud as their bed to save them but now a grassland was beneath them.
Meng Long started climbing down while ignoring the beauty beside him. Each step had pressured him with a master ranker of thirty-one spirit energy rank.
Cang Xue followed him as he climbed down Heaven's Staircase. She also felt the pressure but the blonde-haired girl kept a serene face and was pleasant walking alongside her sweetheart.
She kept gazing at the boy's face whom the blonde-haired beauty missed for two decades as time flowed in the divine realm slower than this world.
"Do you remember when we first met and were so young?" She asked with a nostalgic gleam in her scarlet eyes.
"I don't want to remember." He responded in a cold voice.
"Don't act like you don't care about me. I know you still love me. That's why you came to this world." She said in a sweet manner.
"And?" He asked in a stiff tone.
"And I love you even more" she whispered in his ears in a coquettish voice.
"Love? I would rather jump from here and die than be with you." He responded in a rude manner.
"Darling...you cannot escape me. I'll dive right behind you. If you don't want to live with me at least I'll get to die with you." She said in a flirtatious tone.
"Seems like you've been reading lots of dramatic novels in the divine realm." He mocked her in a stiff voice.
"Why would I read anything else when I can think about my Yue Yan all day? And I keep my word. I'll follow you this time. Last time you left me alone. I won't let that happen again." She said with an unwavering glint in her eyes.
"I didn't leave you alone. You were crying for someone else." He said in a bitter tone.
"It's just a misunderstanding Yue Yan. You're one of the two people for whom I ever shed my tear. Why don't you believe me?" She tried to convince him.
"One of the two... so there is still one more person..." He looked at her suspiciously.
"That person was my master." Cang Xue looked at the floor as if she was hiding something from him.
"I really can't handle your lies and you" Saying that he kicked the floor beneath him and jumped to the side from Heaven's Staircase.
Meng Long started falling down at an incredible speed as he had planned to reach the ground level before others and avoid the blonde-haired girl who he thought lied to him.
However, a wondrous sight all participants of Tianhai's Trial got to witness, which almost took away their breath.
A beautiful figure was chasing the young boy in the air as if they couldn't be separated.
Cang Xue jumped right behind Meng Long as she was resolute to accompany him to death.
Her face was filled with serenity as If she didn't regret her action of diving for him even a bit.
Cang Xue caught him in mid-air and embraced him wrapping her hand around his body.
An aromatic scent of Rose invaded his nostril. Meng Long's head was placed in her well-endowed bosom as a soft sensation felt on his face.
They were both falling down towards the grassland at an incredible speed while their head was pointing in the direction of the ground.
"Why can't you leave me alone," He said in a complaining tone that was mixed with confusion.
"Because I love you and I know you're just mad at me for a little. Would you give up on your Bing'er if she gets mad at you?" She asked in a sweet voice as if convincing a little child who was throwing tantrum at his mother.
He thought carefully about the word she spoke and understood Cang Xue was right. Meng Long wouldn't give up if one day His Bing'er became mad at him.
"Why do you have to follow me to death? What if I am really planning to die? Don't you have to defeat xielong temple?" He couldn't understand her actions at all.
The boy thought she prioritized her goals more than him but she proved him wrong.
"I'm coming with you to your grave if you're going to die. This Xue only cares about Husband. XiéLóng temple can have the world while I am happy with my Yue Yan." Cang Xue said in an adorable manner which didn't lack her resolute decision to be by his side.
Anyone else would've fainted from the terror but for her, this was probably the best moment in two decades that she lived without him as the blonde-haired beauty had hugged the boy in her embrace whom she treasure more than her life.
The time in the divine realm went slower than in this world so it was only two decades for her while thousands of years for Yuena.
"How are we going to survive? Did u have a backup plan before jumping down?" Meng Long asked her to see if she had any way to survive because what she did was insane.
"Nope. I just knew my Yue Yan was going away so I had to accompany you. You know I won't do the same mistake again and let you run away. I'm going to cling to you like your shadow.
Even if you hate me and want me to die by hands of XiéLóng temple I'll still come after you as a ghost and haunt you all the time." Cang Xue said in a loving tone which was filled with satisfaction to be with him.
"You're really a fool." Meng Long Said in a confused voice filled with jumbled-up emotions as he was hugged by her.
"But I'm your fool." She giggled in a mischievous voice while not caring that they were falling from a height that would surely kill them.
"I don't understand you..." Meng Long sighed.
He activated his [Gravity Limit] which increased their speed by ten folds as they started falling down even faster.
Their clothes and hair fluttered with the current of wind as Meng Long wrapped his hand around Cang Xue's waist tightly so she doesn't fall away.
Cang Xue didn't feel scared by the enhanced falling rate. Instead, she was having a joyous moment being with him and his hand gripped around her waist just boosted her confidence in him that he still cherishes her like before.
Other inner court students all watched the two young figures falling at full speed like a shooting stars.
Their face had pity for the young couple who were going down to their death while embracing each other.
