"When I reincarnated into this world, when I began to search for my own karma, I realized that my karma had already been destroyed by the Immortal Dao in ancient times."
"Haha."
Su'Er said, reminiscing, and also laughing.
However, her smile was full of sarcasm and self-mockery.
"Even so, I didn't give up. I continued to search for my own karma. I didn't search for the karma of this life, nor did I want to understand my own karma, nor did I want to find the secret of the Nightmare Lord. I just wanted to forget the fate that had been taken away by fate in my previous life. Even though I knew that karma no longer existed, I still wanted to search for it because I just wanted to forget the fate of my previous life."
"I've been to the Burning Ridge where he wandered, and I've also been to the Red Cloud Sect where he first joined. I've been to the Demon Moon Palace, and I've also been to the Yan Luo Kingdom. I've been to all the places he's been to, and I've also walked on every path he's taken.
"I've refined every single magic treasure that he's refined, and I've also studied every single immortal art that he's created …"
"I followed the footprints he left in this world, and walked a new path that belonged to him."
"I thought that I would be able to forget the fate of my previous life if I persisted in searching for my own karma. However, that was only what I thought. I don't know why, but the more I understood my own karma, the more I couldn't forget the fate of my previous life."
"At first, I really didn't know why. Later, I gradually understood why the more I understood the karma of this life, the more I couldn't forget the fate of my previous life. It was because the karma of this life and the fate of my previous life had too many similarities."
"Emperor You was lonely, and so was King Chixiao."
"Emperor You is a tyrannical Emperor You. Sovereign King Scarlet Firmament is also a tyrannical sovereign king."
"Emperor You was the cold Emperor You, and so was King Chixiao."
"Emperor You was loyal and righteous, and so was the King."
"Emperor You is unrestrained, and so is King Chixiao. Emperor You is unrestrained and lawless, and so is King Chixiao."
"The two of them are really too similar. Many times, I even have an illusion. I don't know if I'm unable to forget Emperor You, or if I've fallen in love with King Chixiao, whom I've never seen before, just because he looks like Emperor You."
"I don't know. I really don't know. During that time, I was really confused and lost."
"Until one day, I realized that fate had played a huge joke on me. It turned out that King Chixiao wasn't dead. He was still alive. Not only was he still alive, he had always been by my side, but I didn't know."
"That's not important. What's important is that when I found out that King Chixiao is Gu Qingfeng, I finally realized that I still can't forget Emperor You. The reason why I'm lost is because the legendary King Chixiao is too similar to Emperor You. That's all."
"But it's only the legendary King Chixiao that resembles Emperor You. As for Gu Qingfeng himself … he doesn't resemble Emperor You at all. At least, that's what I thought at the beginning."
"Most of the time, Gu Qingfeng is like an ignorant and incompetent playboy. But such a playboy, when he's silent and serious, seems to change into another person. He's more like Emperor You than the legendary King Chixiao."
"They're really, really alike. When I first saw him angry, I even suspected that he was the reincarnation of Emperor You. But I knew that Emperor You was already dead, and Gu Qingfeng isn't a reincarnated person, so he can't be the reincarnation of Emperor You."
"I don't know when, but I've started to feel lost and lost again …"
"The more I interact with Gu Qingfeng, the more I understand him. I don't know if I can't forget Emperor You from my previous life, or if I've fallen in love with the current King Chixiao. I don't know if I've fallen in love with King Chixiao because he's like Emperor You, or if I've simply fallen in love with him."
"I don't know, I really don't know … I don't have the chance to know."
"In my previous life, I loved Emperor You, and you took him away. You also took away my first, and only, fate."
"In this life, I love the King, and you're going to take him away again."
"The funny thing is that you took away Emperor You because he's not tolerated by heaven and earth. What's even funnier is that you took away King You because he's not tolerated by heaven and earth."
"Haha …"
Su 'Er said as if she had lost her soul, heartbroken, and hopeless, "Am I cursed by fate? Or is my existence a curse? Otherwise, why is the man I love not tolerated by heaven and earth? Is it because you can't tolerate him, or because you can't tolerate me? "
Su 'Er shook her head, closed her eyes, and cried.
She cried, but also laughed.
"Senior Apprentice Sister, I really don't know what I did wrong. Why must fate treat me like this? I don't want any Karma, nor do I want to know the secrets of Nightmare Lord; I just want my own fate. Why can't you give me such a simple request? Just what did I do wrong? Why must fate punish me like this? "
"Why?! Why?! "
Su 'Er cried out as if her heart and lungs were being torn apart.
Looking at Su 'Er, Nalan Qianqiu's heart ached, and her eyes became red. She walked over and hugged Su' Er, wiping away her tears as she said, "Junior Apprentice Sister, I'm sorry. I didn't know that you'd be in so much pain these years … I'm sorry! I'm really sorry! "
Indeed.
Nalan Qianqiu didn't know.
She thought that she understood her junior apprentice sister very well, and that she was very strong.
It was only today, at this moment, that she realized that she didn't understand her junior apprentice sister at all. Her junior apprentice sister wasn't as strong as she seemed on the surface. Her strength on the surface was accumulated bit by bit from the endless pain in her heart.
"Junior Apprentice Sister, there's something that I don't know if I should tell you. Eldest Senior Apprentice Sister, the Immortal Dao, the Buddhist Dao, and even the Heavenly Dao, including Ancient Nameless, have all warned me repeatedly not to tell you. But … but if I don't tell you today, I feel that I've let you down, and I'm not fit to be your Senior Apprentice Sister."
It wasn't clear if Su 'Er was listening, but she only cried silently on Nalan Qianqiu's shoulder.
"Junior Apprentice Sister, you said that you don't know if you can't forget the previous Emperor You, or if you've fallen in love with the current King Chixiao. You also don't know if you've fallen in love with the King Chixiao because he resembles Emperor You, or if you've simply fallen in love with him."
"Now, I'll tell you the answer."
"You haven't forgotten the previous Emperor You, and you've fallen in love with the current King Chixiao. Do you know why?"
"It's not because he resembles Emperor You."
"It's because the King Chixiao you've met in this life is the Nine Serenities you've met in your previous life!"
