NOVEL NEXT Chapter 14
Chapter 14: The Princess and the Holy Maiden, I Feel Sorry for Gu Changqing!:
-The Great Yu Empire
-Within the Princess room.
Since Su Youwei had taken the Nirvana Pill, as revealed by Su Changqing, her body had improved significantly, and the mark on her forehead had become more lively.
“Everything Su Changqing said was true!” she muttered to herself, curious about what more the future held for her.
Could it be that she would really fall in love with Su Changqing?
As this thought crossed her mind, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment.
Beep beep…
“I’m still young, though,” she mused. “According to the diary, I will fall in love with Su Changqing in ten years?”
Just as Su Youwei was deep in thought…
[Breakthrough to the Saint Realm once again, but this time, my heart remains calm…]
[But in the face of future turmoil, what is a saint realm? Just an ant!]
[…]
A copy of Su Changqing’s diary appeared in front of her, displaying its latest content.
Reading line by line, Su Youwei’s eyes widened in shock.
The Saint Realm was still weak?
Before the future chaos, a saint realm was considered nothing more than an ant?
God! How could this be?
Su Youwei took a deep breath, her delicate body trembling slightly. “A saint realm is just an ant? Then… how terrifying will the future be?”
Her mind raced as she recalled earlier parts of the diary, her heart pounding.
In the face of such devastation, even Su Changqing, along with the strongest powers of the heavens, seemed destined to fail.
[All my life, I’ve strived relentlessly. I’ve swept across the world’s seas, and even the Supreme and Great fell to defeat.]
[Forget it, I won’t dwell on it…]
[In this life, I’ll be calm. I’m tired, so very tired…]
Reading these lines, Su Youwei felt a deep sense of helplessness, as though she could personally feel Su Changqing’s exhaustion.
“Su Changqing…” she whispered, her heart aching for him, though she couldn’t explain why.
As the Holy Son of the Absolute Path Sect, Su Changqing’s future was limitless. His achievements would undoubtedly reach unparalleled heights, even within the Ten Thousand Realms. Few could compare.
For someone like him to feel such powerlessness, to gaze upon the world with such disillusionment…
Su Youwei’s eyes reddened, and her face reflected a mixture of sadness and compassion.
“If I am truly destined to fall in love with Su Changqing, then… then how can I stand by and do nothing?”
She yearned to understand the future, and why she couldn’t stand by his side until the end.
Awakening the power of the divine phoenix within her, she vowed to train diligently. Perhaps she could change the future.
As she returned to her senses, her face turned bright red, burning with embarrassment.
“Ah!”
She squirmed in shame.
“He’s still just a child!” She reminded herself.
Besides, the dark turmoil shouldn’t arrive for a long time, right?
…
Meanwhile, at the Absolute Path Sect, within the Holy Maiden’s palace…
Ling Qianxue was finding it impossible to calm down.
“Multiple breakthroughs, and he’s already stepped into the Saint Realm…” she murmured, her thoughts filled with images of Su Changqing. This man… He would be her future husband!
But why did she feel so unsettled?
Even overwhelmed?
She had just made a breakthrough into the 7th stage God King Realm, but Su Changqing had already reached the Saint Realm.
The gap between them felt immense.
“Hmm…”
Suddenly, a copy of the diary appeared!
Seeing it materialize, Ling Qianxue quickly refocused her mind and began reading its contents.
“This…”
She paused at the first line.
He had made a breakthrough into the Saint Realm with calmness?
This guy…
But as she read further, her understanding grew, and so did her shock.
“When the dark turmoil comes, even saints are mere ants? The Xiantai, Supreme, and Great Emperors, too!?”
“Su Changqing… he… he…”
Her breath quickened, her mind spinning into chaos.
Before, she had been frightened by Su Changqing’s revelations about the future. Now, it was clearer to her just how terrifying it truly was.
In the grand scheme of things, even the mightiest were like ants…
What had Su Changqing experienced in the future that would make him return with such words?
After finishing the diary entry, Ling Qianxue’s expression became complex, her brow furrowed with worry.
“Su Changqing… are you truly so tired?”
“Yes… fighting until the bitter end, only to face failure… it must be exhausting.”
She had never imagined that, even in the Saint Realm, Su Changqing would not find joy, only peace—indifference, even. He no longer wanted to struggle, desiring only quiet and tranquility.
But…
Since Su Changqing was destined to be her future husband, how could she allow him to fall into such despair?
Clenching her fists, Ling Qianxue refused to accept the resignation she had read in his diary.
“Su Changqing, don’t give up!”
“Didn’t you say we’d become Dao partners in the future? I… I will fight by your side!”
Her cheeks flushed at the thought, but her resolve was unwavering.
Although she didn’t know why she couldn’t stay with him until the very end, now that she was aware, she would train tirelessly and ensure she could be a part of the fight against the dark turmoil!
Without hesitation, Ling Qianxue stood up and rushed out of the room.
A maid hurried forward. “Gikt Maiden, where are you going?”
“To Holy Son peak!” Ling Qianxue blurted out before flying away.
The maid stood there, bewildered.
“…?!”
The maids were speechless, their minds blank.
Did they hear that right?
The Holy Maiden was going to Holy Son Peak?
They had barely interacted before now! What had changed?
The Holy Maiden had transformed drastically these past few days!
…
On the other side, after finishing his diary entry, Su Changqing stepped out, intending to take a walk and familiarize himself with the sect.
“Will events unfold as I predicted in the diary?” He wondered to himself.
As he stepped outside, he saw a disciple waiting for him.
Upon seeing Su Changqing, the disciple quickly approached and bowed respectfully.
“Disciple Chu Ming greets the Holy Son!”
“Chu Ming?” Su Changqing was taken aback. Wait!
This… wasn’t this the little villain from the novel?
He was one of Su Changqing’s lackeys!
Though the original author had written Chu Ming as a bit brainless, his strength was undeniable among the many followers.
At this moment, Chu Ming spoke again. “Holy Son, I… I need to leave the sect for a while.”
“My father is critically ill, and I’ve received a letter from home. I must return to visit him!”
He bowed deeply after finishing his explanation.
Hearing this, Su Changqing was puzzled. This event hadn’t happened in the original plot.
Before he could ponder further, a system voice echoed in his mind…
