No wonder they felt an instant connection upon meeting. Their past lives had forged an invisible bond.
Another revelation struck Zhou Ying. She had always believed the interspace’s water held some nourishing properties. It turned out that the fertility of the interspace stemmed from the divine array set up by the Divine Doctor Yaoshan within the Mother God Divine Hall. This array transformed animal waste, dead branches, and other organic matter into potent fertilizer, sustaining the interspace’s remarkable growth.
Reaching the final fragment of memory, Zhou Ying sensed a barrier—a sign it wasn’t meant to be accessed yet. She retreated, opening her eyes to find Gu Chengrui sipping chrysanthemum tea on the bed.
“Did you see everything?” he asked gently.
Zhou Ying nodded, a mix of emotions swirling within her. This wasn’t the same Gu Chengrui she knew. A sense of estrangement gnawed at her.
Gu Chengrui, sensing her turmoil, offered her a warm smile. “Don’t worry. Our bond transcends lifetimes. We’ll find our way back to each other.” He held out a cup of tea. “Here, you must be parched after those tense days.”
Zhou Ying accepted the tea without hesitation, the warmth spreading through her chilled core.
Gu Chengrui’s eyes softened. “Qing’er,” he murmured, using her true name for the first time. “You wish to bear my child?”
“Qing’er...?”
“Yes. That is Mother God’s true name.
“We’ve been together for ten thousand years, yet with our restored divinity, children will no longer be an option.”
“Did you have any children in your previous lives?” she asked.
Gu Chengrui shook his head. “Because I had feelings for you before I transcended my tribulation, it was a merciless tribulation. I could only get married when I met you.”
Relief washed over Zhou Ying. The thought of him having children with others had been a nagging worry.
Sensing her relief, Gu Chengrui gently tucked a stray hair behind her ear. “The dawn is approaching. Let’s return.”
“Alright,” Zhou Ying agreed, leading him out of the interspace.
Sunlight streamed through the window. Zhou Ying turned to him, a curious question forming on her lips. “Can you sense the dawn from within the interspace?”
