Chapter 283 I Want You to Feel Sorry for Me
Que Yu didn't seem surprised that Yu Ze and Qi Huai had come along, and her expression didn't change at all when they arrived.
"They hold the key to destiny, so it's perfectly normal for them to go together, right?"
Yun Fuzhao spoke without blushing or skipping a beat.
Que Yu glanced at them lazily. "That's normal. I also like to bring entourages when I travel."
The expressions on their faces were priceless after those words were spoken.
Qi Huai smiled and casually put his arm around Yun Fuzhao's shoulder, speaking affectionately, "Yes, I am a follower, and I will follow our Fuzhao for the rest of my life."
Yu Ze glanced at his hand, then expressionlessly grabbed Yun Fuzhao's wrist and pulled her away from him.
He didn't say anything, but his attitude was clear.
Que Yu chuckled, seemingly unconcerned about their actions.
"Alright, since we're all here, let's get going."
Que Yu only brought one protector, whom Yun Fuzhao had never seen before. The protector had a blank expression on his face from the moment they arrived.
Its eyes are staring straight ahead; someone unfamiliar with it might mistake it for a sculpture.
And so, this somewhat strange team set off.
The map Que Yu gave him marked that place as being in the Boundless Realm, a special location that did not belong to any realm.
If he hadn't mentioned it, Yun Fuzhao wouldn't have known that such a place existed.
Because of the long journey, Que Yu directly took out a pitch-black ark.
This thing travels through the night like a ghost, silently and stealthily.
According to him, the four ferocious beasts were on high alert, and any slight movement would attract their attention. This ark, capable of concealing its presence, was an excellent means of transportation.
Yun Fuzhao and his companions were enemies of Que Yu. During their journey, they remained silent. Que Yu, seemingly oblivious to the subtle atmosphere, would occasionally come to talk to Yun Fuzhao.
"If the energy contained in the miracle is enough for all of us to ascend, would you still choose to save these people?"
Yun Fuzhao sat on the deck wiping his sword, not even raising his head when he heard this. "I don't consider myself a great philanthropist, but I will still save people."
She countered, "And how do you know that you can rest easy after ascending to heaven?"
It was the Dragon Clan who suppressed the Four Fiends. If they had ascended to heaven and then abandoned the lower realm, allowing these fiends to grow and potentially create a hole in the upper realm, it wouldn't be impossible.
Que Yu stared at her. "That's true. But how long are your two attendants planning to keep watching me?"
Yun Fuzhao turned around and found Yu Ze and Qi Huai lurking behind him.
He'll rush over immediately whenever he wants to do something.
Yun Fuzhao gave them a reassuring look and continued talking to Que Yu, hoping to extract some information from him.
"There's something I'm curious about. Those black spirit beasts don't attack your Ghost Realm. What kind of deal did you make with them? Did you simply break the seal of Chaos?"
But the Ghost Realm was also one of the forces that suppressed them back then. Can the ferocious beasts really forgive and forget?
Que Yu raised an eyebrow and asked with a smile, "Yun Fuzhao, when you're trying to get information out of me, aren't you even trying to put on a pretense?"
"We're partners now, and you swore an oath to the death, so what's there to hide?"
Que Yu nodded thoughtfully, "What you said is not wrong."
His gaze swept subtly over the two men with gloomy expressions, and his eyes flashed. "I can tell you, but I'll only tell you."
Qi Huai: "Is there anything we can't hear?"
"I'm sorry," Que Yu shrugged, "I simply don't want to tell you, is that not allowed?"
"..."
Yun Fuzhao raised his hand and set up a magic array on the two of them. "Alright, can you tell me now?"
“Okay,” Que Yu leaned towards her, “Of course, I will not only help Chaos break the seal, but I also promise to help them unify the Five Realms.”
"that's it?"
"that's it."
Yun Fuzhao looked at him suspiciously. She strongly suspected that, given the ferocious beast's nature, it would use the Ghost Realm to seek revenge later.
“I know what you’re thinking,” Que Yu slowly sat back down, looking up at the sky with a smile on his lips. “That’s why I’m rushing to ask Fu Zhao to help me open the miracle.”
"...So after you ascend to immortality, your ghost clan will abandon you?"
Upon hearing this, Que Yu turned her head and stared at her intently, as if she had heard a funny joke, and couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Hahaha!"
He said, "What do they have to do with me?"
As expected of him.
No problem.
“So,” Que Yu said softly, “people can’t have anything they care about. Once you do, you have a weakness, and that will allow your enemies to succeed.”
"...Que Yu," Yun Fuzhao paused for a moment before speaking, "Your courtesy name is Ji Zhi, isn't it?"
"..."
The smile on the face next to him visibly vanished, and his lips tightened. "When did you find out?"
Yun Fuzhao didn't hide anything, "When I went to the Ghost Realm before, I visited the Star Palace and it felt familiar. After thinking about it carefully, I realized that I had seen it before in the memory fragments of Linglu Mountain."
Later I asked Que Chi if he had any other names, and he said his courtesy name was Ji Zhi.
"You're actually quite clever for once."
Yun Fuzhao: "So why did you show me those things back then?"
If it were Yun Fuzhao, she wouldn't actually show those scars to others.
Que Yu did not answer immediately.
Seeing the fluctuating emotions in her eyes, he waited a while before replying in a teasing and dismissive tone, "Playing the victim, trying to get your sympathy."
"..."
Okay, you're too old to play the victim anymore.
Yun Fuzhao ignored him and changed the subject, "How much longer until we arrive?"
She glanced down; from this height, she could only see the lights on, nothing else.
Que Yu: "About two more days."
"Almost there," Yun Fuzhao said, touching the Wuji in his hand.
The closer Yun Fuzhao got, the more uneasy he felt.
Nobody knows what might be hidden there; they're all gambling on a rumor.
If there isn't divine power there to seal the four ferocious beasts, they will not only have made a wasted trip, but they might also perish there.
Soon, two days passed.
The group disembarked from the ark.
The sight before them sank into their hearts; it was utterly silent, devoid of any living creature.
There wasn't even a single blade of grass.
The ground beneath their feet began to crack, spreading out like a spider web, as if it would open its maw and swallow them whole at any moment.
"Are you sure this is here?"
Qi Huai raised a question.
Que Yu nodded, "If you pay close attention, you will be able to sense the subtle fluctuations of spiritual energy hidden all around you."
Upon hearing this, the group all closed their eyes.
Yun Fuzhao also closed his eyes.
When vision is blocked, hearing becomes more sensitive.
She heard the whistling wind, and upon focusing again, she heard a sound in the wind like flowing water.
That was flowing spiritual energy.
