Chapter 244 The Past
In countless past days and nights, Gu Qingxue had always hoped that her once kind, lovely, and sensible sister would return.
But every time she realized that it was just a dream upon waking up, it was her wishful thinking.
Now, an opportunity to turn dreams into reality is right in front of her.
She is not doing it for anyone else, but for the promise of her husband, and to see her sister again, she must make an effort to gradually let go of past grievances.
"Is there hope... I don't know either."
"I don't know how to save her now."
"Let's see, I'll try my best."
He touched Xue'er's head. As a husband, he was truly shocked by his wife's forgiveness towards her sister. After all, the one who was most hurt in the beginning was Gu Qingxue.
Xue'er always seemed so kind from beginning to end, never choosing to look down on her sudden "recklessness."
"How could this be?"
"Is she beyond saving?"
"She looks so painful, what has this person been through?"
As a medical immortal, Qinglian quickly approached this unfamiliar woman to examine her pulse. After a diagnosis, her expression immediately turned serious.
"Her meridians are severed, blood flowing in reverse?"
"Multiple injuries to the internal organs, basic physiological functions cannot be maintained normally."
"In her condition, a normal person would have already died, yet she is still hanging on?"
Qinglian could only feel shock towards this woman's situation and pathology.
For her, this kind of situation was untreatable, or rather, even immortals would find it difficult to save her. It was a doomed fate.
But unexpectedly, she was still hanging on.
For Qinglian, it was like witnessing a miracle.
"Cough cough, of course, it's all thanks to this dragon."
"But I can only keep her alive, I can't do anything else."
Xiaohong came forward to take credit, claiming that all of this was her doing, and without her, this woman would have died long ago.
"Yes, Xiaohong saved her."
"In fact, she might just be a sacrifice for the Misty Cloud Sect's ritual, and her purpose for being alive is to witness someone else's resurrection in her place."
Chu Qianqiu finally revealed everything that Gu Wanqing had experienced before.
He felt that it was time, after all, everyone's impression of Gu Wanqing was still stuck in the phase of her being ruthless and cold-hearted.
Now, seeing such a fragile and sickly "dead person," perhaps everyone could better accept what he said and the reality in front of them.
"She... was actually chosen by the Misty Cloud Sect's sect master as a reincarnation sacrifice? Which means that old guy has actually been dead for a long time. He just concealed it from the world for so long..."
When Chu Qianqiu was explaining the reason to the women, Tang Zhao suddenly appeared by his side, and he didn't know when.
Perhaps Chu Qianqiu's speech was too serious, so he was startled at this moment and almost punched this unexpected guy to the ground.
"What the hell, when did you come in?"
"Brother Chu, I've been here all along."
"Right, where did you go just now? I went out for a while and just came back."
"When I arrived, there was no one from the Chu family, so I was a little curious and investigated a bit."
"I didn't mean to, I was just afraid that you guys moved out of Moon Phoenix City and felt a bit guilty."
Apologizing, Tang Zhao was actually afraid that the Chu family would move away.
Now, Chu Qianqiu is the strongest force of their Rising Sun Empire.
If he were to relocate, the empire would probably immediately crumble.
"Fine, I can't be bothered with you."
"What did you just say?"
Chu Qianqiu didn't care about this sudden planting.
What he cared about now was what the other person had just said.
"Oh, it's like this. I've actually been curious about one thing for a long time, and now I finally have the answer to the puzzle."
"Actually, the overall national strength of the Falling Star Empire has always been slightly higher than that of our Rising Sun Empire, plus they have the support of the Misty Cloud Sect. According to reason, they should have had thoughts about our Rising Sun Empire long ago."
"But since my father's time, they have been unusually quiet and showed no interest in us at all. It's strange, as if they were waiting for us to slowly rise up normally, which is very weird."
"I didn't have the qualifications to send undercover troops to investigate their internal affairs at that time, I simply could not do it. I could only guess randomly, but I can't guarantee that my guess is absolutely correct."
"Now that you bring up this matter, I have an answer. It turns out that the Sect Master of the Misty Cloud Sect died, no wonder the Falling Star Empire has been so peaceful for the past hundred years, as if they lost something."
"Actually, the Sect Master of the Misty Cloud Sect was once a very powerful person. The reason why the Falling Star Empire is what it is today is largely due to him."
"To be honest, that guy almost broke through the Soul Formation Realm and became a Mega powerhouse in the Void Mirror. He was just one step away, his strength was terrifying."
"It is said that once you reach the Void Mirror, the cultivator's body can temporarily merge with the heavens and the earth, truly comprehend the Great Dao with the physical body, and also have the qualifications to attempt to break through the shackles of the sky and go to the legendary upper realm."
"As far as I know, there are currently no human powerhouses in the Void Realm in our Dongsheng Divine Continent. If there are, their age must be extremely high, and they have already hidden themselves, I can't even find any information in the legendary books."
"In short, once that monster reaches the Void Realm, the consequences would be unimaginable. He would definitely dominate the entire human realm with an absolute attitude, conquering the entire Dongsheng Divine Continent."
"I believe he has that kind of strength, but in recent millennia, we have hardly heard any news about this old monster, as if he evaporated from the world."
"But even if he doesn't appear, no one dares to disrespect the Misty Cloud Sect and the Falling Star Empire. After all, no one can imagine that he would suddenly die at this time."
"Reaching that realm, it is really difficult for a cultivator to die, unless they forcefully Transcend Tribulation... or unless their lifespan is exhausted."
"But no matter what, the General of the Rising Sun Empire, the prince, and even my father all believed that this guy was just in seclusion, accumulating strength to prepare for a possible breakthrough."
"Perhaps it was because of this immense pressure... that my father would disregard everything and embark on the evil path in order to become stronger, eventually becoming a bloodthirsty demonic cultivator, right?"
"If it weren't for that, maybe the fate of this empire would have been rewritten, and my mother would have been alive until today."
