Su Zimo looked at the blood-robed woman and felt his heart skip a beat. He had a dazed expression and did not know if this scene was reality or an illusion.
It had been more than 80,000 years since the two of them parted.
Unlike when Die Yue transformed into a butterfly in Ping Yang Town and left, the two of them were separated by life and death in the medium chiliocosm.
In fact, Su Zimo did not even know if he would be able to see Die Yue again after ascending to the major chiliocosm.
What would Die Yue be like when they met again?
It was only at that moment that he realized that Die Yue was still the same person he thought about day and night. In fact, she was even younger than before.
There was an additional hint of girlishness on her carefree and lazy face.
Su Zimo had once seen Die Yue die in front of him with his own eyes.
That despair, powerlessness and pain made him wish he was dead.
He left his old friends and home to travel alone through the medium chiliocosm so that he could relieve the pain in his heart. However, it was still difficult for him to free himself.
Earlier on, the moment he saw Die Yue, all his hurt and pain vanished.
There was only endless joy in his heart.
Su Zimoâs eyes were red and he could not bear to leave at all. He merely looked at Die Yue in a daze, unable to even bear to disturb her.
After an unknown period of time.
Suddenly, the blood-robed woman harrumphed softly and said, âYouâve glared at me for a long time. How rude!â
As she said that, the blood-robed woman opened her eyes and looked in Su Zimoâs direction.
âEh?â
When the blood-robed woman saw Su Zimoâs expression, she pursed her lips and a smile appeared in her beautiful eyes. âYouâre quite an interesting person. Do you have to feel so aggrieved that your eyes are reddened just because I scolded you a little?â
Su Zimoâs heart skipped a beat and he felt vaguely uneasy. He hurried forward and arrived under the peach blossom tree, asking with a quivering voice, âDie Yue, donât you recognize me?â
âWhy should I recognize you?â
The blood-robed woman glared at Su Zimo for a while before shaking her head.
When Su Zimo saw that Die Yue did not seem like she was joking with him, his figure swayed and his face turned incomparably pale!
The words of Empress Evil from back then appeared in his mind.
âShe would gain a new life in the major chiliocosm, but it would not be a rebirth.â
âThe so-called new life means wiping away all traces of this lifetime.â
âIf she gains a new life in the major chiliocosm, she might become any one of the ten thousand races. Even if she cultivates again, she will forget about everything in this lifetime, including you.â
In the end, Empress Evil was right.
The two of them reunited but did not know each other.
Su Zimoâs heart ached.
The joy from earlier on dissipated significantly as well.
Right then, the blood-robed woman continued, âFurthermore, my name is not Die Yue. Itâs Su Die.â
âHuh?â
Su Zimo was stunned for a moment and asked, âWhy is your surname Su? Who gave you that name?â
âI named myself.â
At the mention of that, a smug look flashed through the blood-robed womanâs eyes. âI was raised by a group of butterflies and the first word I ever said was Su. The first word I recognized was also Su.â
âIâm guessing that I must have been an impressive figure in my previous life. Since the word Su is so important to me, it should be my surnameâ¦â
Before the blood-robed woman could finish, she saw that Su Zimoâs eyes were red and tears were streaming down his face.
After a lifetime of reincarnation, Die Yue almost forgot everything about her previous life and even herself.
However, she had not forgotten about him.
On the peach blossom tree, the blood-robed woman looked down at Su Zimo who was crying uncontrollably. Her heart skipped a beat and she felt an inexplicable heartache.
The blood-robed woman closed her eyes and was silent for a long time. Suddenly, she floated down and arrived before Su Zimo, asking gently, âWhatâs your name?â
âMy name is Su Zimo.â
Su Zimoâs eyes were red from crying as he replied softly.
âOh.â
The blood-robed woman replied in a seemingly casual manner.
Su Zimo wiped away the tears on his face casually and took a deep breath. âMiss Die, I want to tell you a story. Are you willing to listen?â
âThat depends on how well you say it.â
The blood-robed woman smiled gently.
Su Zimo nodded and tried his best to compose himself, revealing a reminiscent expression as he said softly, âThereâs a small town in Tianhuang Mainland called Ping Yang Town.â
âThereâs a scholar in the town who owns a residence of his own. Thereâs also a peach blossom tree planted in the courtyard, similar to this one.â
As he said that, Su Zimo pointed at the peach blossom tree at the side.
No matter what, Die Yue still remembered some things.
If not for that, there would not be these peach blossom trees planted near her residence.
Su Zimo believed that that period of time in Ping Yang Town left a deep impression in Die Yueâs heart.
He hoped to use this to awaken the memories of Die Yueâs previous life.
Su Zimo continued, âThe scholarâs daily life was ordinary. It was nothing more than reading and writing. One day, he went out and encountered a severely injured and unconscious red-robed woman, saving herâ¦â
When Su Zimo first met the two of them, Die Yue left him three gifts. Then, he cultivated continuously and chased after her footsteps. When he arrived at the medium chiliocosm, the two of them finally metâ¦
Then, the two of them fought against the world hand in hand and crushed the Heavenly Court. In the end, Die Yue died in the hands of Brahma Ghost Motherâ¦
This story was extremely long.
Su Zimo fell into his memories and unknowingly, he recounted the story for three days and nights.
He did not realize that even after such a long time, the blood-robed woman did not reveal any impatience on her face. She listened to him quietly without interrupting.
Instead, when he mentioned the emotional parts, a hint of gentleness flashed through the blood-robed womanâs eyes as she looked at him.
After the entire story was told, Su Zimo snapped out of his stupor and heaved a sigh of relief.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âItâs a great story.â
The blood-robed woman smiled faintly. âYouâre not trying to tell me that the scholar in that story was you and the red-robed woman was my previous life, right?â
âYou donât believe me?â
Su Zimo did not expect that it would be useless even after telling her everything about her previous life. He could not help but feel anxious.
An idea crossed him as he hurriedly took out a painting from his storage bag and unfolded it in front of the blood-robed woman.
There were two people drawn on the paintingâa man and a woman.
The man had black hair, green robes and a burning gazeâit was Su Zimo.
The womanâs blood-colored robes reached the ground and she looked down on the worldâit was Die Yue.
This was a painting given to Su Zimo by Painting Immortal Mo Qing before he ascended.
âMiss Die, look.â
Su Zimo pointed at the two people on the painting. âThis is a painting given to me by an old friend in the medium chiliocosm. Arenât the people in the painting us?â
The blood-robed woman glanced at the painting and her gaze landed on a line of small words at the bottom right corner of the painting. She read it softly, âJunior Brother Su, I hope that you can find her as soon as possible and spend the rest of your lives together.â
The blood-robed woman looked at the words and smelled the faint fragrance from the painting. Suddenly, she asked, âThis was given to you by a woman, right?â
âYes.â
Su Zimo nodded instinctively. âHeaven and Earth Academyâs Painting Immortal, Senior Sister Mo Qing.â
âSenior Sister Mo Qing, huh? Why havenât I heard you mention her before?â
The blood-robed woman glared at Su Zimo and asked with a fake smile.
âIââ
Su Zimo was stumped for a moment.
In his story earlier on, he was mostly talking about how much he missed Die Yue. He naturally skipped talking about other people as much as he could.
Suddenly!
Su Zimoâs heart skipped a beat as he snapped out of his stupor. He looked at Die Yue in disbelief with an emotional expression and couldnât care less. He went forward and grabbed Die Yueâs hands, asking with a trembling voice, âY-Youâve remembered, right?â
A blush appeared on Die Yueâs face and she did not break free. She looked at Su Zimo tenderly and nodded gently.
Su Zimoâs heart was about to explode and his blood boiled. He asked hurriedly, âWhen?â
âJust as you were crying.â
Die Yue pursed her lips and smiled.
Su Zimo blushed with a shy expression. However, he was extremely happy internally.
When he cried, he had yet to tell the story.
Su Zimo said, âWhy didnât you say so earlier? You caused me toâ¦â
Die Yue said gently, âWe havenât seen each other for a long time. Even after hearing you talk to me for three days and nights, I donât think itâs enough.â
Su Zimoâs heart warmed when he heard that. He wrapped his arms around Die Yue and hugged her.
The two of them felt each otherâs heartbeat and hugged each other tightly with almost all their might, as though they were afraid that the other party would leave again.
This time round, the two of them knew that no one could separate them.
