Chapter 2073: The Past
Listening to Gu Zhiqi’s words, Mo Weiran paused for a moment.
What does it mean... it’s over?
It sounds like something happened.
He didn’t say anything on the surface, but instead, he walked towards the Formation, feeling a bit uneasy as he walked.
He also didn’t know what exactly had been sealed in him.
It probably wasn’t destiny; he felt his luck had already been quite good after all, not many people could compare when it came to meeting the young lady.
His talent was so poor, could it be his cultivation talent?
Hua Yan still remembered what Su Yunling had discussed with her earlier about helping to activate the formation, so she followed along to the edge of the array, and under Su Yunling’s guidance, activated the formation.
After the formation was activated, Su Yunling stood by the Formation to maintain it.
Hua Yan sat down next to Gu Zhiqi, then looked steadily at Mo Weiran, somewhat absent-mindedly.
Gu Zhiqi turned his head to glance at her and asked, "Is your story convenient to tell?"
Hua Yan listened, nodded, then shook her head, her expression somewhat dazed, "It’s been so long, I’ve forgotten many things."
Gu Zhiqi listened, paused for a moment, and finally nodded, nine hundred years is indeed quite a long time.
Gu Zhiqi thought Hua Yan wouldn’t say anything, but unexpectedly, after shaking her head, Hua Yan glanced at Mo Weiran and began speaking in a daze, "I do vaguely remember some things."
"Back then, heroes vied for supremacy, those kings all wanted to unify the world, and the country where Su and I lived was called Yan Country."
"Su and I grew up together from a very young age, he promised to marry me when we grew up, and later, he truly did marry me, but not long after we wed, a neighboring country invaded, and Su went to join the army."
"On the day of farewell, I gave him a flower, a purple flower, at that time I didn’t even know what that flower was called..."
The following story was similar to what was in Gu Zhiqi’s memory.
However, there was more to it.
"I returned the souls of a hundred thousand soldiers home."
"I brought back the flower containing Su’s soul."
"I hoped that Su could merge with the flower as the legends said, then transform into a Flower Demon, and then take form, but he never did."
"That day, I met someone, a Mystic Master."
"Upon discovering that Su’s soul was hidden in the flower, she said the flower merely trapped the soul, and as long as he stayed inside, he could never reincarnate."
"Later, Su entered the cycle of reincarnation, and I became that Mystic Master’s disciple."
"The higher my cultivation level, the longer my lifespan, and I hoped to see Su again."
"We met again five hundred years ago."
"Su and I fell in love once more, but not long after, a great war broke out, Su died in the war, to save me..."
"After that, we never met again, I thought, in that great war five hundred years ago, his soul was scattered, I never imagined he was still alive."
Hua Yan recounted the past while speaking with Gu Zhiqi.
After Hua Yan finished her account, Gu Zhiqi spoke, "That Mystic Master?"
Hua Yan: "It was you, Master."
After answering, a hint of confusion appeared in Hua Yan’s eyes as she looked at Gu Zhiqi, "Do you not have related memories? Three years ago, you entered the Space-time Array with the Lord God and went back a thousand years, it was nine hundred years ago that I met you."
"Originally, many memories were blurry, but ever since you and the Lord God entered the Space-time Array, those memories from a thousand to five hundred years ago began to become clearer."
Gu Zhiqi: "I have no memories after entering the Space-time Array."
