“Do you remember the Banished Lands 1 ?” A light flashed in Qianbei Ye’s eyes as he asked.
“I remember. You had forcibly raised your power in order to save me which resulted in you falling into a coma. I then journeyed into the Banished Lands to search for the Hell’s Lotus to save you. Had you regained your memories in the Banished Lands?”
Gu Ruoyun was shocked as she stared at the peerless-looking man before her.
Qianbei Ye nodded. “That’s right. I had regained my memory ever since I’ve awakened.”
“That is also to say, you’ve been playing the fool in front of me?”
Gu Ruoyun gritted her teeth tightly.
Qianbei Ye could hear the grinding sound of her teeth.
Ever since his awakening, Qianbei Ye had still maintained the look of a naive little thing. She simply never suspected that this fellow has regained his memories.
When had she finally realized it?
Qianbei Ye’s personality has changed subtly and he was no longer as pitiful and naive as he once was. Instead, he has become incomparably powerful! However, the only thing which has remained unchanged was his devotion to Gu Ruoyun.
However, Gu Ruoyun never thought that he would have regained his memories during that period of time. This also meant that Gu Ruoyun has been kept in the dark all this while.
“Alright, I’d like to ask you as well — what is your relationship with the previous Master of the Ancient Divine Pagoda? No, should I say, how am I related to her?”
All this time, Gu Ruoyun only had one guess as to who that woman was but she did not dare to admit it. Hence, she took the chance to ask the question.
Silence!
The entire room was completely silent.
It was so quiet that Gu Ruoyun could only feel the man’s breathing by her side…
Just as she thought that Qianbei Ye was not going to answer her question, the man’s hoarse voice rang out once again, “After so many years, you should be able to guess that the Master of the Ancient Divine Pagoda has always been you alone.”
Even though she had already guessed it deep down, when faced with his confirmation, Gu Ruoyun’s heart trembled.
“That is also to say that the woman whom I had once seen in an illusion was me?”
No wonder!
No wonder Zixie had chosen me and the Nine Emperors had recognized me immediately as its Master.
This was all because I was the previous Master of the Ancient Divine Pagoda.
No!
It should be — she alone will forever be the Master of the Ancient Divine Pagoda!
“The scene that I had witnessed in that illusion, you had pierced a sword into me. Xiao Ye, what’s the meaning of that?”
Ultimately, she had to ask this question.
Qianbei Ye’s arm around her trembled slightly. After a long pause, he sighed, “If I told you that it wasn’t me, would you believe me?”
“I believe you.”
Gu Ruoyun lifted her head to look at the man as her eyes filled with determination.
“As long as you say that he wasn’t you, I believe you.”
“Yun’er.”
Qianbei Ye pulled Gu Ruoyun into his arms, flipped them over and lay on top of her. Just as he was trying to get on with the same mission as he did last night, a knock suddenly sounded on their door.
“Lady Gu, the Clan Leader has awakened and asked me to escort you.”
Qianbei Ye’s mood was disturbed and he furrowed his brows. He did not say much as he helped Gu Ruoyun to dress in her robes.
“Let’s go.”
“Alright.”
Gu Ruoyun gently nodded. She then washed her face and rinsed her mouth before she opened the door.
A beautiful and handsome young man was standing outside the door.
This young man has exquisite features and fair, white skin. He was very tall and slim. When he laid eyes upon Gu Ruoyun who had just opened the door, he blushed and glanced carefully at her.
She’s the human girl who had saved the Clan Leader? I never thought that she would turn out to be so beautiful…
