Chapter 1818 “Admiration (6)”

Mu Gorgeous was technically half her shifu from a certain perspective so showing respect wasn’t strange. Taking to the knee, she makes three full kowtows like one should at a worshipping ceremony.

Bump!

Then at the final hit of her head against the ground, the tombstone slid to one side to reveal a hidden passageway.

Quite frankly, Bai Yan did have a momentary thought about this happening like all those drama shows she used to see as a child on Earth, but to have actually happen like in the scripts still left her dumbfounded.

This is real? It’s that easy?

Making a gobsmacking face, she did not know how to react to this stroke of luck aside from jumping up with glee.

Quickly gathering herself, the demon queen didn’t hesitate for a second and dived right into the hidden tunnel.

The passageway was bright once she got inside, the steps long and drawn out as she headed further downwards to god knows where. Despite the unknown, she knew its better than staying idle.

After a long while, Bai Yan finally came to the end of the stairs and hit a wall like before, this time with a long message engraved onto the surface.

“This life, Gorgeous is the one whom I cannot make mine. Years of war caused her to hate demons to the bone, and at the same time, caused her to hate me to the bone… I, the great king, truly never thought the day would come where I would fall heads over heels for such an arrogant and overbearing lass….

I do not know why I would love someone like her either, why her existence can occupy my heart to such a degree. I only know that in the moment where she stood under that peach blossom tree, that’s when this lass ensnared my heart. She wasn’t that clawing and feisty kitty anymore, but a quiet and enchanting butterfly in my soul.

Sadly, I never realized this until it’s too late. She’s gone now, completely disappeared from my reach. If only my pride didn’t get the best of me back then, perhaps… I would’ve given her my all, even the entire demon race as a gift if must, I’m willing.

But this girl… she’s truly a stubborn one. I know her soul is avoiding me in the afterlife. I tried finding her to no avail. Maybe she thinks I would destroy her completely? I do not know, maybe that’s why I never got to meet her again. To think I would fall so low as to want to beg a female to return to me….

So, knowing she wouldn’t come back, I built this mausoleum and erected her tombstone at its center. I also transplanted the peach blossom trees she loved so much, hoping she would return some day and come here to see what I created in her name. Perhaps then she would understand my feelings.

My time is coming to an end soon. If there is another life, I swear I will never let her go again, I will cling to her like vine until the end of time!”

The handwriting on the wall was clear and visible, causing Bai Yan’s heart to fluster with emotion.

“Demons? This writer must be the ruler of the demon race back in the old ages, to think this individual would have such strong regrets in the realm of love. I wonder if this Mu Gorgeous really went into the wheel of life and death? Or did she simply disappear out of existence…” Bai Yan slightly lowered her eyes due to this thought.

I remember Mu Gorgeous mentioned something about going into the rebirth cycle, but did she really do that? Furthermore, the time from now has been so long, would her soul remain the same? Or did she get reborn anew so many times that her existence has been erased completely….

If the former were true and she remains, I would really like to meet such a incredible woman.

However……

Casting another glance at the inscriptions along the wall, Bai Yan’s eyes locked onto a certain phrase: “I hope that if the lass does return someday… return? Why did the leader of the demons use the word return? Is it a coincidence that I ended up here, or…. is it fate?”

Why do I get the suspicion the reason I’m able to come here is because of the inheritance from the diary?
