Perfect World: I Am Eternal

Chapter 360 Foolish Woman

"Sorry, I……"

"No need, I guess I misjudged people."

Qingyao opened her mouth, her eyes slightly red, tears rolling down her cheeks. Her heart ached, feeling that the other person was blaming her and that she couldn't forgive them.

In the end, the young man left, giving the powerful members of the Heaven-Mending Sect a cold look before departing with a woman in white without looking back.

In the dream, it was their second separation, but it was not pleasant; it was even filled with resentment and regret.

Since then, Qingyao has felt guilty every time she thinks about it, feeling that she has harmed the other person and caused them to suffer this ordeal.

"Huh, the pretty lady is crying. Is she having a nightmare?" Lin Fan wondered, holding the Emperor's Banner, thinking it had worked.

As a result, she kept her eyes tightly closed and her brows furrowed, as if she had just dreamt of something bad.

"Sigh..." The Lord of the Heaven-Mending Cult sighed deeply and remained silent.

If life were just a first encounter, or even nothing at all, perhaps it would be better; at least it wouldn't leave a lasting impression...

Year after year, flowers bloom and fade, across three thousand states, a prodigy who emerged alive from the ancient immortal realm has become famous throughout the world.

Some even surpassed the gods and became leaders of their respective sects.

Unfortunately, after all these years, the person who won the championship has disappeared without a trace, as if he had vanished into thin air.

In the blink of an eye, eighty years have passed.

Until one day, a dazzling rainbow streaked across the upper realm, reaching a certain state. It was so brilliant that it connected the two sides of the starry sky.

"What is that? A golden road, how can it be so long?"

"It spreads out from outer space, is this... a supreme being on a journey?!"

Under the dazzling starlight, a young man rode on a divine rainbow, took a step, and the stars shifted, instantly arriving at the gate of a mountain.

"Oh no, they've come to my Heaven-Mending Sect!"

In an instant, the entire leadership of the Heaven-Mending Sect was alarmed, activating the Chaos Array, and everyone came to the high sky to look out.

"What, it's you!"

Finally, someone saw clearly the man standing on the golden road, who looked like a god or a demon, and was filled with disbelief.

"You're back... Are you alright?" Qingyao asked in a trembling voice, staring at the person who had come in, her feelings complicated and filled with guilt.

"I've come... to collect a debt!" The man's words were concise, yet they sent a chill down everyone's spine, as if they had fallen into hell.

The young man they imprisoned back then has grown up, surpassed the gods, and is now settling scores.

“You little bastard, you’re still alive? You even dare to come to my Heaven-Mending Sect. Haven’t you learned your lesson from the past?” Rosen said.

It was he who imprisoned the other party back then, which was quite domineering.

"boom!"

The man did not speak, but merely released a wisp of his aura, which crushed mountains and rivers, caused stars to fall, and robbed the world of its color.

In an instant, the entire formation of the Heaven-Mending Sect collapsed, and everyone knelt on the ground, trembling.

They were shocked; their backs were soaked with sweat. In just a few years, their opponent had grown to this level.

"You... have become the Supreme!" Rosen was shocked and spoke with difficulty.

"Today's revenge, the massacre, will begin with you!" With a wave of his hand, the Devouring Demon Emperor crushed Rosen into minced meat as if he were an ant.

"what……"

The man cried out in deep regret, wondering why he hadn't killed the woman in white earlier and let her take him away.

However, it's no use saying anything now. The other party has become a supreme being, a rare figure who looks down upon the heavens and the earth, and can control the life and death of anyone.

Rosen's spirit tried to escape, but it was crushed and completely destroyed.

Seeing this, many were stunned. That was a cult leader-level figure, so easily killed. Everyone was terrified; the newcomer was simply too strong, filling them with despair.

When Qingyao saw the other party come knocking on her door, she was overwhelmed with mixed feelings. She never expected that this day would come so soon.

They had shared life and death, walked together through thick and thin, developed feelings for each other, and yet they ended up like this. It's heartbreaking.

"puff!"

The Devouring Demon Emperor made his move—or rather, it wasn't really a move, but the sheer power he unleashed caused the deaths and injuries of most of the cultivators from the Heaven-Mending Sect.

The Lord of Patching Heaven was completely unable to move, lying on the ground, unable to do anything, helplessly watching his disciple die.

Now, a sense of fear gripped everyone's hearts; their Heaven-Mending Sect might be expelled from the Upper Realm.

"Stop...please stop! The others are innocent. It has nothing to do with those disciples. If you want to settle scores, kill me. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have done this to you..."

Qingyao pleaded for mercy, her beautiful eyes reddening and brimming with tears.

outside world.

"Damn it, the Heaven-Mending Sect did such a thing, how come they're still alive, making this pretty lady suffer the consequences..."

Lin Fan grumbled and cursed as he used the Emperor's Banner to glimpse some of Qingyao's dream.

The members of the Patching Heaven Sect were embarrassed. They wanted to remind him to watch his words, but when the words were on the tip of their tongues, they didn't know how to say them.

Some of the things they did in the past were indeed unethical, especially in front of outsiders, and they should feel ashamed.

"Fellow Daoist, your branch is really bold to provoke this person. It's a miracle that you're still alive."

The elders from the Heaven-Mending Path were terrified, never expecting that a branch in the lower realm had once gotten into such a huge mess.

You must understand that the Devouring Demon Emperor is actually the incarnation of the Holy Emperor. Offending him is like an old man hanging himself or someone who's tired of living.

The old man secretly wiped away his sweat. Fortunately, it didn't involve the Nine Heavens' Heaven-Mending Dao, otherwise they would all be doomed.

Bringing up the old story again, the old leader of the Patching Heaven Sect blushed and sighed, "It's also my fault for being blind. During my seclusion, I entrusted the sect's affairs to such a scoundrel, which almost led to the destruction of the sect."

In a dream.

Corpses lay strewn across the land, with broken bones and bits of flesh everywhere. Blood stained the mountains and lakes, emitting a pungent, fishy stench.

All of this was undoubtedly a nightmare for Qingyao; she was caught in the middle and felt terrible.

“I…I’m sorry, but if you want to destroy the sect, you’ll have to step over my dead body first.”

Regardless of the circumstances, this man was arrested, treated that way, imprisoned and tortured because of her, and no amount of repercussions could have been too much.

However, the Patching Heaven Sect is her home... As a saintess, she has an obligation to protect it and stand with the sect through thick and thin.

"Are you once again prepared to use our relationship to make me let the Heaven-Mending Sect go?"

"Again?" Qingyao's head throbbed slightly, sensing that something was amiss.

"After all these years, you're still an idiot, so stupid that you can't even tell the difference between dreams and reality."

With a wave of his hand, the man caused the world to spin, the dream to change drastically, the mountains and rivers to disappear, the bloodstains to vanish, and they returned to the time when they first met.

"We met, we reunited, it all feels so familiar, because we were in a dream."

"You..." Qingyao stared at the scene before her in astonishment, speechless.

That familiar tone... Was she dreaming, or had she crossed time and space to see him again?

The man shook his head and said, "Heh, you think I'm dead, don't you?"

Qingyao nodded blankly. The fact that the other party died during the tribulation to become an immortal was not a secret in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths; many people knew about it.

"You're a foolish woman, and you don't believe me. Take the Forget-Me-Not Pill, and you'll remember what you've forgotten, the people who left will come back, and everything can be changed!"

"But, the world doesn't know, and don't you know yet? Don't forget, this elixir was actually developed by me..."
