Sensing Chu Xingyun's stiff movements and letting go of her arm, Shui Liu Xiang's small mouth couldn't help but twitch as bean-sized tears once again flowed out.
Although he hadn't said a single word, Chu Xingyun's actions had already explained everything.
Gently pushing Shui Liu Xiang aside, Chu Xingyun said, "Come … Let's sit down first. Listen to me slowly."
Hearing Chu Xingyun's words, Shui Liu Xiang and Bai Bing simultaneously found a place to sit down.
Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Chu Xingyun took a deep breath, then began to narrate the story …
Concisely and to the point, Chu Xingyun recounted how he was Di Tianyi's tribulation child and cauldron, as well as the great calamity of heaven and earth …
Upon hearing that Chu Xingyun was actually Di Tianyi's tribulation child, Bai Bing and Shui Liu Xiang couldn't help but cry out in alarm.
There was no one in the Universe World who did not know of Di Tianyi's name.
Given Chu Xingyun's strength back then, he had actually become Di Tianyi's tribulation child. That was practically a death sentence.
Looking deeply at Shui Liu Xiang, Chu Xingyun continued, "That year, completely disheartened, I entered the ancient starry sky path. Then … When I approached the True Spirit Continent, I sensed an extremely familiar soul ripple."
Taking a deep breath, Chu Xingyun continued, "On that dusky ancient starry sky path, amidst the chaotic meteorites, I discovered an ice coffin. Inside that ice coffin lay a very familiar person."
Ice coffin!
Hearing Chu Xingyun's narration, Shui Liu Xiang clenched her fists and asked, "Then … who was inside that ice coffin? Did I know her? "
Nodding, Chu Xingyun said, "Not only did you know her, but you were also very familiar with her. In fact … you should be able to guess who she was."
Hearing Chu Xingyun's words, Shui Liu Xiang's heart couldn't help but tremble.
Although she didn't have any proof, based on a woman's intuition, Shui Liu Xiang knew that this person was definitely very special. So special that … Chu Xingyun couldn't accept her anymore.
Relying on this intuition, Shui Liu Xiang's eyes widened in an instant as she exclaimed, "Could … could it be … Ye Qianhan was inside that ice coffin?!"
"That's right, the person inside the ice coffin was none other than Ye Qianhan!"
Chu Xingyun's head nodded.
Shaking his head, Chu Xingyun said, "When I found her, she was already on the verge of death. And … what moved me the most was that Ye Qianhan left behind a love poem in the ice coffin before she died."
I don't regret this deep love,
I'm willing to wander alone.
I regret being a couple in a dream,
I'd rather betray the heavens than you.
Hearing this poem, Shui Liu Xiang's delicate body couldn't help but sway. She said sorrowfully, "So … so you were moved and married her?"
In response to Shui Liu Xiang's question, Chu Xingyun nodded and said, "That's right … at that time … the great calamity of heaven and earth would begin at any moment. As Di Tianyi's Child of Tribulation, I believed that I would definitely die. Furthermore, I thought that you were already married to Dongfang Tianxiu, so …"
No! No …
Sorrowfully shedding tears, Shui Liu Xiang said, "It wasn't like that. After I woke up, I stopped that plan. I didn't marry him, I didn't …"
Gazing deeply at Shui Liu Xiang, Chu Xingyun said, "My thoughts at that time were simple. Since I was about to die anyway … giving Qianhan a status before I died could be considered a form of help."
Looking at Chu Xingyun in despair, Shui Liu Xiang could understand Chu Xingyun's thoughts.
At that time, Shui Liu Xiang didn't want him anymore. Faced with Di Tianyi's possession, there was absolutely no way he could survive.
In that desperate situation, in the last moments of his life, he chose to help Ye Qianhan.
Therefore, Chu Xingyun and Ye Qianhan's union had nothing to do with feelings. It was completely a form of help out of kindness.
Taking a trembling breath, Shui Liu Xiang asked, "Where is Qianhan now? She … isn't with you? "
Hearing Shui Liu Xiang's question, Chu Xingyun couldn't help but tremble. Painfully, he closed his eyes. One after another, images flashed past his mind …
On the night of the wedding, Ye Qianhan thought she was dreaming. At that time … she smiled so sweetly.
Under the dark clouds that filled the sky, Ye Qianhan threw herself into his arms like a moth to a flame and blocked the fatal blow for him.
Under the thousands of lightning tribulations, in the last moments of her life, Ye Qianhan was smiling. To be able to die in the arms of the man she loved the most and accompany him on his journey, Ye Qianhan had no regrets.
Finally, Chu Xingyun slowly opened his eyes and said with infinite sorrow, "Qianhan … she's already gone."
Gone? Where did she go …
Shui Liu Xiang didn't understand Chu Xingyun's words. However, halfway through her question, she already realized what he meant by 'gone'.
Looking at Chu Xingyun in panic, Shui Liu Xiang said, "Gone? How could she have left?! "
Chu Xingyun looked deeply at Shui Liu Xiang and said, "Originally, she didn't have to die and wouldn't have. However, in order to save me, at the most critical moment, she threw herself into my arms like a moth to a flame and blocked Di Tianyi's fatal blow!"
"In the end, she snuggled in my arms with a satisfied smile. Facing the sky full of lightning tribulations, she happily accompanied me on my journey …"
Chu Xingyun said slowly.
Looking blankly at Chu Xingyun, Shui Liu Xiang said, "So that's how it is. Your life … was exchanged with Big Sister Qianhan's own life."
Shaking her head in admiration, Shui Liu Xiang murmured Ye Qianhan's short poem.
I don't regret the deep feelings in this life,
I'm willing to wander alone;
I regret being a couple in a dream,
I'd rather betray the heavens than betray you …
It's really a good poem. Big Sister Qianhan … thank you. Thank you for saving Big Brother Yun …
Looking at the dazed Shui Liu Xiang, Chu Xingyun said, "I've already said what I need to say. By now, you should understand why I can't see you again, right?"
With a lonely smile, Shui Liu Xiang said, "As a wife, Big Sister Qianhan has already done everything she can do. Therefore … as her husband, you can no longer betray her."
Nodding, Chu Xingyun continued, "That's right … to have a wife like Qianhan, I, Chu Xingyun, am perfectly satisfied. For her love, I'll use a lifetime of loneliness to return it to her."
Hearing Chu Xingyun's words, Shui Liu Xiang's eyes couldn't help but light up.
The speaker meant what he said, and the listener meant what he said …
Although he didn't say it explicitly, Chu Xingyun's words just now actually contained a deeper meaning.
Chu Xingyun couldn't betray a wife like Ye Qianhan who had such deep feelings for him.
Chu Xingyun couldn't use feelings to repay Ye Qianhan's love. Therefore … he could only use a lifetime of loneliness to repay this affection.
But why could he only use a lifetime of loneliness to repay it? Couldn't he use true love?
No … he couldn't …
Because Shui Liu Xiang knew that even though Big Brother Yun had done a lot of things to let her down, and had betrayed her twice in succession.
However, from the beginning to the end, the one who betrayed her was only Big Brother Yun's body. Big Brother Yun's heart had never betrayed her.
Therefore, no matter what, Chu Xingyun couldn't use true love to repay Ye Qianhan. He could only use a lifetime of loneliness as compensation …
As for whether Chu Xingyun truly only loved Shui Liu Xiang in his heart, the eighteen Extreme Love ice sculptures had actually already given the answer.
If it wasn't for the fact that he had reached the pinnacle of true love, it would be impossible for these eighteen Extreme Love ice sculptures to be successfully refined!
