[That night, you waited alone in the room.]
[As the Sect Master of Heavenly Bliss Sect, Lan Shanglan was very beautiful.]
[But you didn't feel the slightest bit of happiness. In your heart at this moment, there was only revenge.]
[Soon, the door to the room was pushed open.]
[But the one who entered was not Lan Shanglan. Instead, it was a strange woman wearing a mask.]
[Her figure was even more graceful than Lan Shanglan's.]
Ye Yu witnessed this scene, and a look of confusion appeared on his face.
What does this mean?
Lan Shanglan didn't adhere to martial ethics? Preparing for a one-against-many situation?
That won't do. Even the toughest person wouldn't withstand that.
[You cautiously stood up and asked where Lan Shanglan was.]
[The masked woman told you that Lan Shanglan was already dead, killed by her.]
[She had become the new Sect Master of the Heavenly Bliss Sect, and took over the deal you had with Lan Shanglan.]
[Once she became a cultivator in the Tribulation Crossing realm, she would personally annihilate the Dragonlight Sect.]
[She was willing to swear by the Dao.]
[And most crucially, she was still a virgin, never having practiced dual cultivation with anyone.]
[The Dao encompasses three thousand paths; choose one and follow it. Swearing by the Dao is the most important commitment for a cultivator. If it is not fulfilled, it will turn into a heart demon.]
[Lan Shanglan had never dared to say such things.]
[You couldn't help but be somewhat moved.]
[Of course, never having practiced dual cultivation with anyone also held considerable allure.]
[So, you nodded in agreement.]
Ye Yu revealed a hint of a smile.
Unexpectedly, there could still be such a gain. Not bad at all.
But the woman in front of him had been wearing a mask the whole time, making it impossible to see her face.
That was quite frustrating.
He really wanted to see what she actually looked like.
[Afterward, in your presence, this woman swore by the Dao.]
[You heard her name during the oath: Yun Wuci.]
[After the oath concluded, a blue light strand flew out from above her head, circled once, and flew into the sky.]
[This was the sign that the oath had been completed.]
[You let go of some of your wariness.]
[However you looked at it, Yun Wuci seemed much more reliable than Lan Shanglan.]
[But when you proposed to see Yun Wuci's true face, you were refused.]
[Yun Wuci told you that between them, it was just a transaction; why bother about seeing her face?]
[You agreed with this statement.]
[Afterward, you no longer insisted on whether she wore a mask or not.]
[That night, you began to study calligraphy together.]
[At the age of 50, you reached the peak of the Nascent Soul realm, just one step away from the Divine Transformation realm.]
[Years of dual cultivation also greatly benefited you.]
[Yun Wuci was good to you and did not choose techniques that would harm you greatly. Instead, she selected techniques that would benefit both of you.]
[Even though these effects are not as fast as the first type, Yun Wuci did not mind.]
[Over the years of companionship, you developed a different kind of emotion towards Yun Wuci.]
[You even feel that, after wiping out the Dragonlight Sect in the future, being together with Yun Wuci would also be a good choice.]
[At the age of 110, you have long been in the middle stage of the Divine Transformation realm.]
[And Yun Wuci, after entering seclusion, has begun to formally strive towards the Tribulation Crossing realm.]
[You are incredibly excited. The things you both agreed upon initially are finally seeing the light.]
[You even begin to fantasize about the scene of eradicating the Dragonlight Sect in the future.]
[A few days later.]
[Yun Wuci has not yet finished her seclusion, but you receive a message.]
[The Dragonlight Sect has been wiped out, and the one who acted was your former fiancée, Bu Lingfei.]
[Upon hearing this news, you can't help but feel incredibly bewildered.]
[Why her?]
[How could it possibly be her?]
[In all these years, there has been no news of her in the cultivation world.]
[You even suspected that Bu Lingfei might have died long ago.]
[But you never expected that she would actually seek revenge for you.]
[This brings back childhood memories in your heart once again.]
[After much thought, you decide to go out and find Bu Lingfei.]
[Not only to thank her in person, but also to fulfill the childhood engagement.]
[You deceive the disciples of Heavenly Bliss Sect, saying you need to go out to buy some things.]
[The disciples of Heavenly Bliss Sect did not suspect anything. You have been living here for decades. If you wanted to leave, you would have left long ago. How could you possibly wait until now?]
[But they could never imagine...]
[That now, you really intend to leave!]
[Six months later.]
[You have been tirelessly searching for information about Bu Lingfei in the cultivation world, but to no avail.]
[She seems to have been a fleeting figure. After wiping out the Dragonlight Sect, she seemed to disappear again.]
[Just like all those years ago.]
[This left you feeling very disheartened. Gazing at the bright moonlight, your eyes were filled with confusion.]
[Now that your great revenge has been achieved, yet you cannot find Bu Lingfei, where do you go from here?]
[Soon, you felt an inexplicable pressure.]
[Yun Wuci appeared by your side.]
[By now, she had successfully entered the Tribulation Crossing realm. She looked ethereal.]
[Yun Wuci asked coldly why you left without saying goodbye.]
[You explained about Bu Lingfei, saying you wanted to thank her in person.]
[Yun Wuci remained silent, staring at you quietly for a long time.]
[Then she began to ask if you sought Bu Lingfei to fulfill your engagement from years ago.]
[You didn't want to deceive Yun Wuci, so you nodded.]
[Upon hearing this answer, Yun Wuci transformed into a streak of starlight and sped off into the sky.]
[After some time passed, her voice came from above.]
[The deal is over, from now on we are strangers.]
[Upon hearing these words that sounded like farewell, you felt somewhat saddened.]
Ye Yu shook his head slightly.
Women, always saying one thing and meaning another.
If Yun Wuci had just left directly, it would have been normal.
But leaving behind those words...
It clearly showed that Yun Wuci must have harbored some feelings.
Otherwise, why would she bother coming back like this?
However, there is a fly in the ointment...
Even after decades of dual cultivation, he never saw Yun Wuci's true face.
That was the most disappointing part.
[At the age of 130, without Yun Wuci's assistance, your cultivation progress slowed down.]
[Until now, you still haven't broken through to the late stage of the Divine Transformation realm.]
[But you weren't sad, because this year, you finally found Bu Lingfei.]
[The woman you had been engaged to since childhood.]
[Upon meeting again, you found her still beautiful and captivating.]
[After reuniting, you quickly embraced each other.]
[Bu Lingfei told you that back when you were roaring in the Hidden Heaven Valley, saying you'd abandon everything to take her away to live freely, she had already decided that this life, she would marry no one but you.]
