Regardless of whether they were in a romantic relationship or a master and disciple relationship, they liked each other anyway.
Hearing this answer, Zong Lizi, Ran Handong and Jiang Yuxia felt satisfied and moved on to the next part of the interview. Jiang Yuxia asked, "Based on the time flow, you haven't seen him for five hundred years. Why do you still remember the past so clearly and are willing to do so many things for him?"
"Do you like Jing Jiu?" asked Zhao Layue while looking at her.
Jiang Yuxia was a bit shy and scared, but she still uttered "hmm" bravely.
Zhao Layue turned to Zong Lizi. "Don't look at me. I know," said Zong Lizi in a coquettish manner.
"It doesn't matter if I like him. It's like watching the flowers and listening to the sound of the brook; but don't expect the flowers to bloom and the brook to cry for you. It's because the sun will rise again tomorrow even if we die today."
Zhao Layue raised the wine cup and clinked it with the setting sun in the distance, and then emptied the cup.
Ran Handong remarked sentimentally, "If I have the chance, I'd like to go to Chaotian and have a look. Maybe I can achieve the Cultivation path there."
"Do you like Jing Jiu too?" asked Zhao Layue.
Staring into her eyes, Ran Handong said earnestly, "No, I like him."
Zhao Layue was taken aback. She poured a cup of wine for Zong Lizi and commented, "You have a good eye."
Zong Lizi said while covering her face with her hands, "How is he different from Jing Jiu? He's a completely different person. "
Zhao Layue didn't want to admit it. "Let's go back to the original question," she said to Jiang Yuxia.
The feeble wind passed through the protective shield and landed on the cliff platform tens of thousands of meters in the sky, ruffling the leaves on the trees and the pistils of the flowers. The question was simple: why hadn't she forgotten Jing Jiu after five hundred years?
"The supernova explosion happens in a split second. Well, scientifically speaking, it's an astronomical event that lasts from a split second to a few years, or even longer. Regardless, it's still a very short time compared to the long history of the universe."
Zhao Layue picked up the alcohol jar and poured the alcohol into the cup, saying, "But for this universe, the light and heat emitted by the explosion of the supernova will last a long time, traveling in the boundless space for billions or even tens of billions of years."
It was the most accurate and beautiful way to describe love, feelings, or all encounters. Just like the stars in the distance that gradually fell under the arc of the earth, it was so peaceful and beautiful, like countless repeated dusks and love.
"What's more, the time I spent with him wasn't an instant. We lived together for 150 years," Zhao Layue said. "Even though he was sleeping most of the time."
…
…
Several hover cars ignored the administrative regulations of the main planet, breaking through the night clouds and landing on the outskirts of the special administrative region of the capital. After that, they continued to ignore all traffic regulations, cutting through the wind as fast as they could. Very quickly, they entered the city and came to the street where they could see the military headquarters building from afar.
Zhao Layue and Ran Handong got off the floating car while holding the skateboard. They walked across the sidewalk under the shocked gazes of the pedestrians and arrived in the square, eliciting many surprised screams and cheers.
She had become the most famous and the most mysterious girl in the skateboarding circle over the last few days.
Every time she appeared, she would attract the gazes of many people and cause a great deal of discussion.
Nobody knew who she was until now. All they knew was that she used the latest and best skateboards in this world. Once in a while, people found that the skateboards she used had never been seen before. Later, they found out that the skateboards she used were limited edition products that hadn't been manufactured yet.
Judging from these details, it was easy to infer that she was not a regular person and must have an extraordinary family background.
— It was quite extraordinary, not just ordinary extraordinary.
Zhao Layue didn't pay any attention to those gazes. She took the clothes from Ran Handong and put them on. Then, she held the hover skateboard under her armpit and headed to the square.
The skateboarding party had a special theme that day, which was the retro style.
All the youths on the skateboards wore the classic clothes, and the good-looking girls wore beautiful dresses. The classic style and beauty here were of course the cultural concepts created by the games and movies over the years.
Ran Handong didn't expect Shen Yunmai to have so many admirers in this world. She whispered something to Zhao Layue in a low voice.
Shen Yunmai, the most powerful person in the Federation of the Milky Way and the son of a young master who nobody dared to rank below, the former chief advisor of the military and the commander of the nuclear fleet of the Star Fleet, whom General Li didn't dare offend, had disappeared.
Not long after his disappearance, General Li died.
As the two figures at the top of the human civilization and also the most familiar to the regular people, many conjectures had arisen. Many stories had appeared on the forums.
Many children of the nobles and nobles in the Special District of Capital had heard of Shen Yunmai's story, and some of them had even seen him. As a result, more stories had been created based on this story.
In the past, Shen Yunmai's fame was limited to the upper class of society and the circle of the ancients. His fame had spread over the last few days, and he had become an idol in the whole of the Federation of the Milky Way. No matter how formidable those ascendants from Chaotian were, they couldn't control such a thing even if they could control the entire interplanetary network.
The tendency of humans to worship, follow, and imitate their idols was uncontrollable.
The idols referred to here did not only refer to the stars, but also some other relationships.
For instance, many soldiers of the Federation admired Ran Handong, Ran Handong admired Zhao Layue, and Zhao Layue admired Jing Jiu.
The skateboarders and the young girls in the square regarded Zhao Layue as their idol. In addition to her mysterious identity, nobody had ever seen someone who could skateboard as well as she could. She was, after all, a professional sword fairy who could ride the sword easily, so the skateboard was nothing to her.
Now that she was their idol, nobody dared say a word about it, no matter how unconventional the dress worn by Zhao Layue was in their eyes.
Zhao Layue walked along the sidewalk and came to the square, mingling with her familiar playmates. She nodded to them as a greeting. Yet, such a small movement elicited a series of cold inhaling and admiring gazes from the crowd.
Along with the faint sound of the electromagnetic field generator, a dozen floating skateboards of the latest model left the ground and hovered in the night sky.
The building of the military headquarters at the end of the street looked like a huge battleship, gazing at these mischievous children indifferently and emotionlessly.
The night wind blew gently. As the skateboards traveled faster and faster, the complicated dresses of the ancient-style looked like the colorful flowers blooming in the night sky, looking very beautiful.
Zhao Layue bent her knees slightly as she maneuvered the skateboard to travel at an unimaginable speed in the night sky, her white dress drawing a clear outline.
A commotion suddenly occurred in the southeast corner of the square.
A youth leapt up into the air on the skateboard, arriving in the square along with the golden flowers.
The other skateboarders and the onlookers probably thought that the golden flowers came from the skateboard the youth was riding, but Zhao Layue and Ran Handong could see clearly that the golden flowers came out from the sleeves of the youth's robe.
The youth had a handsome face and a clean energy, giving off a sense of transcendence. Seeing him would make one forget their worries. He wore a light-colored monk robe without hair.
It was true that the human civilization had entered the interplanetary era, and the religions represented by the praying hall still existed.
It was said that some remote planets still had primitive beliefs. As such, it was not strange that there were monks on those planets.
The skateboarders didn't think that this youth was a monk, or that he was imitating the ancient-style just like them.
Ran Handong didn't think so. Looking at the handsome young monk in the ruffling monk robe, her expression grew cold as she was about to fire the laser cannon.
Zhao Layue raised her right hand, signaling for her not to fire the cannon for the time being. She turned around and flew to the other end of the street.
The youth followed her on the skateboard without hesitation. A moment later, they had left the square and arrived on the street.
The surprised screams broke out on the square and on both sides of the street, growing louder in the next moment.
In the beginning, the surprised screams came from the skateboarders and the young girls.
Zhao Layue and the handsome youth flew to the building on the other side of the street by stepping on the floating skateboards.
The floating skateboards had a height limit of five meters when they left the factory, but it was impossible for the two of them to fly at the same height.
The surprised screams came from the populace on both sides of the street. The speed at which Zhao Layue and the youth traveled was unimaginably fast. The two floating skateboards had gone from the square to the building of the military headquarters on the other side of the street in the blink of an eye, disappearing without a trace.
Ran Handong informed the relevant departments of the Ran Clan and a battleship outside the atmosphere as quickly as she could. She leapt up in the air and headed in that direction.
…
…
Nobody could catch up with Zhao Layue and the handsome young monk. At least not in the Special District of Capital tonight. Ran Handong couldn't catch up with them either. It was believed that the satellites and battleships outside the atmosphere had lost track of them.
In the space outside the atmosphere of the Main Planet, the young monk stopped short and turned to look at Zhao Layue.
The light of the distant star shone on his body.
There was no air in the space, so there was no wind either. Yet, his monk robe was fluttering softly, as if it was out of the mortal world.
It was interesting that both he and Zhao Layue were riding on the floating skateboards.
This should be the highest place the floating skateboards had ever reached in this world.
Looking at the handsome face of the young monk, Zhao Layue asked, "Are you the Great Compassion Monk?"
The young monk said, "I changed my Buddhist name to Joy the other day after witnessing the life-and-death battle between the Immortal Chunyang and the Godly Swordsman of West Ocean."
