Chapter 317.3: This Time, It’s Probably Goodbye Forever

After a long moment of silence, the woman suddenly voiced out softly: “Where has Lian Shi disappeared to?”

It seemed as though it had already been several days since he last walked out from here and there had been no sign of him again.

In the past, he would always show up here every three to five days even if he had no business here at all, forever cooking up an excuse to hide the fact that he merely wanted to come see her. His feelings towards her, had not changed in the slightest even through that period of a million years.

But, she had never wanted to face up to it before.

As this person had always hung around before her all this time, for him to disappear all of a sudden, it somehow made her feel a little unused to it.

But, that’s all there was to it. A habit she had grown accustomed to.

Seemingly never expecting the woman to ask about that, Yan Po was taken aback for a moment before she went on to reply: “I did b.u.mp into the Lotus Supreme Lord a few days ago and he mentioned….. that he needed to make amends for his mistakes?”

Make amends for his mistakes?

The woman’s gaze constricted for a moment, but she did not say a word.

Just what is he going to do?

—The Bottom of the Lake—

Qing Yu had thought that it would take a bout of convincing to talk this man around. Never had she thought that the man would agree to it so easily.

“Then, how are we going to get out from here?” Qing Yu raised her head up slightly, to look at the towering man and ask.

This person was really just too tall. At a glance, he was at least two meters tall. It was little wonder his demonic form had been so ma.s.sive, as majestic as a lofty mountain.

Hearing her question, the man did not respond but just slipped the sword back into its sheath with a swish, before planting the scabbard heavily into the ground at his feet.

In the next instant, Qing Yu felt the ground tremble and shake. Fortunately Zang Mai was quick and nimble enough to hold on to her, which allowed her to keep her balance and not fall. The water in the lake then surged and churned violently, before they split and parted to the sides, opening up a path for them to go forward.

“Let’s go.” The man opened his mouth to say, and then went on walking ahead on his own, while Qing Yu hurried to catch up with the man.

“Should I address you….. as Lian Shi?”

The man had a rather icy personality and probably did not like to talk all that much. The fact that he had said so many words to her just now was already a miracle by itself.

Realizing that, Qing Yu took the initiative to speak up.

“Hoho, Lian Shi was indeed once my name, but I don’t think it belongs to me anymore.” The man laughed softly as he spoke, but it seemed like there was a sliver of bitterness in that smile.

Seeing that the man seemed to be feeling a little down, Qing Yu could not help but to open her mouth and say: “But I really think that the person who a.s.sumed your name and continued to live would be suffering more than you! Afterall….. he had never lived for his own sake, but only as your subst.i.tute.”
