Outside the mirror.
In that moment, the cultivators’ eyes widened.
Bai Qing’er was dead???
Everyone turned to stare in disbelief at Bai Qing’er.
Nobody would have expected it.
When this woman said that she had sacrificed a lot for the Heavenly Emperor back then.
In order to gain more time for the Heavenly Emperor to gather his strength, this woman actually fought until she really died!
“Who I love, I will not allow him to die in front of me.”
In that moment, what Bai Qing’er said before popped up in their minds.
Everyone now began to really feel the determination in these words.
She had seriously used her life to protect this man.
Everyone was touched. Everyone was moved by this.
So why didn’t the Heavenly Emperor ever love her?!
“The Heavenly Emperor is seriously too unfeeling,” several cultivators couldn’t help but mutter curses under their breath.
…
Bai Qing’er’s gaze was troubled. Her beautiful eyes were filled with mixed emotions.
She murmured to herself, “Look, Brother Changqing. I’ve done so much for you but I’ve never asked for anything in return.”
“But even those women were able to find a place in your heart. Why couldn’t I? I’m willing to die for you. Are those women willing to? You have done everything to make sure you didn’t let those women down. But why are you like this to me?”
As Bai Qing’er recalled the past, her eyes welled up with tears. “And why did you still have to kill my father after he revived me from the dead?”
Bai Qing’er’s tears fell like rain. Her gaze was filled with bitterness.
She had never hated Gu Changqing, even though she died for his sake, even though he had no place in his heart for her, even though he ended up killing her father.
She had never hated him.
She just simply couldn’t understand why the ever loyal and sentimental Brother Changqing would be so unfeeling toward her.
…
Inside the mirror.
The moment Bai Qing’er collapsed.
The Great Emperor divine runes above Gu Changqing’s head suddenly shattered.
He opened his eyes with a start, only to see Bai Qing’er silently falling to the ground in the light rain beside him.
…
Outside the mirror.
In that instant, the cultivators’ pupils constricted.
“The Great Emperor divine runes have shattered!”
Everyone could sense that Gu Changqing had arrived at the critical moment to gather a Great Emperor dao fruit. It was definitely within reach! Yet, it actually shattered at this point!
“If the Heavenly Emperor really had no place in his heart for her, then why did he give up entering the dao at that moment?!”
Everyone was flabbergasted.
It seemed like they had once again, misunderstood the Heavenly Emperor.
They had just witnessed how close the Heavenly Emperor was to gathering his dao fruit. He just needed that few more moments, just a few more, and he could have gathered his dao fruit and reach Emperor with just one step.
But he actually gave that up!
Bai Qing’er’s body froze. Her unparalleled beautiful face stiffened for a moment, then tears rolled down her cheeks.
“Brother Changqing…”
Her smile was dazzling, but her eyes were filled with tears.
Deep satisfaction was written all over her face.
She had once thought that she had never been able to enter this man’s heart.
But when she saw how Gu Changqing gave up the chance to be Emperor when she died, she understood that even though he had never confessed any feelings for her, she had a place in his heart that was no lower than others.
The hateful feeling she had harbored over millennia dissipated in an instant.
She was now extremely satisfied.
Just knowing that she had a place in Brother Changqing’s heart was good enough for her. The rest didn’t matter and she didn’t care. Besides, she knew that her Brother Changqing always had a good reason for doing what he did.
…
The man blessed by the gods, Ye Chen, had a very, very, nasty look on his face.
He had been hoping to see Gu Changqing do a whole bunch of wicked things after Bai Qing’er’s death.
If things went well, he might even be able to get Bai Qing’er to completely fall out with the Heavenly Emperor and stand on his side.
But now, it seemed like the true situation was going in a completely different direction again.
He could only hope that the Heavenly Emperor’s killing of Bai Chonglou would make Bai Qing’er start hating him again.
Otherwise, based on his understanding of this woman, once this arc of Gu Changqing’s past was done, she would definitely try to rescue the Heavenly Emperor at any cost.
…
Inside the mirror.
Bai Chonglou dashed out from the river of time only to see Bai Qing’er collapse.
In that moment, tears ran down his face and his body shook violently.
“Grand Elder!”
“I had initially thought of allowing you to live a little longer, but you decided to do something that deserves death! You decided to do something that deserves death!!”
“I’ll send you to hell today!!”
Bai Chonglou was like a ferocious beast that was trapped with no way out as he let out hysterical, angry bellows.
A terrifying rage burned inside his heart and a terrifying blast of qi as deep as an abyss rushed out from around him!
Behind him, an ancient mirror slowly rose into the sky.
“The Bronze Ancient Mirror?!”
The Grand Elder whose eyes showed no emotion at all finally flickered.
“This ancient mirror is a sacred treasure of the Unorthodox Sect and disappeared into the forbidden zone of the sect grounds along with the previous sect leader. I did not think you would have found it.”
As the Grand Elder spoke calmly, the flicker in his gaze disappeared and was replaced by some disdain. “But Bai Chonglou, you’re a useless fellow. You really think that just because you’ve found the Bronze Ancient Mirror, you are now good enough to fight me?”
“If Quasi-Emperor isn’t enough, how about Great Emperor?!”
A resounding roar burst from Bai Chonglou’s mouth. Imperial might instantly rushed into the sky.
It shook the skies and broke into the universe.
In that moment, several worlds trembled and shook.
An Unorthodox Emperor was truly terrifying!
The Grand Elder finally began to look really stunned. “Since you were a young boy, I’ve always felt that you were able to think far and execute long, drawn-out schemes. I was the one who didn’t want you to have any position of power within the sect or have access to cultivation resources.”
“Yet you actually managed to reach Great Emperor!”
The Grand Elder’s eyes were filled with mixed emotions. “Chonglou, Chonglou, it’s a pity. You’ve got a good brain, so you should have waited longer. Once you reach Half-Step to Immortality in the future, you would be able to threaten me.”
“But you’re still such a useless thing in the end.”
“Don’t you understand the difference between Half-Step to Immortality and Great Emperor!!!”
The Grand Elder bellowed the last sentence.
A mighty pressure burst from his body and crushed myriad paths.
His terrifying Half-Step to Immortality divine might charged into the sky mercilessly, shattering space time, blotting out the sun and moon, making heaven and earth shake.
“Great Emperor is enough!”
Bai Chonglou tore through the void and dashed toward the Grand Elder without hesitation.
