Chapter 131.2 - This Isn't A Dream
At this moment, the colorful mist of the Dragon Phoenix Valley was rapidly dissipating, revealing the trees and the sky above.
This isnt a dream! Qi Bei moved away from her lips but his hand remained inside Ming Yues dress.
Suddenly, a beastly roar sounded, and a fierce creature that looked like a tiger pounced towards them.
Qi Bei quickly withdrew his hand from Ming Yues dress and his black long sword with a dazzling golden light pierced the eye of the magic beast.
Damn, its not a dream Qi Bei felt a little embarrassed as he looked at Ming Yue, who still stared at him intently. He then turned his gaze to the powerful, savage monsters that were emerging from the dense forest. There was no time to contemplate further. He grabbed Ming Yues hand and swiftly dashed away, charging out of the Dragon Phoenix Valley.
Oddly enough, the current Dragon Phoenix Valley felt different from before, lacking the sense of being trapped, akin to an ordinary grand valley.
Shortly after their disappearance, the graceful and enchanting figure of Yao Rao flickered into view. Her gaze fell upon the staff and dagger dropped by Ming Yue, causing her heart to grow heavy.
Not far from the Dragon Phoenix Valley, a babbling brook flowed out from the mountains. Qi Bei descended there, holding onto Ming Yue. He arrived at the creek, cupped his hands in the cool water, and splashed his face. He then gazed at his reflection in the water, running his hand over his shiny bald head.
That Iron Head guy probably cant compare to this young master anymore, Qi Bei thought to himself.
Ming Yue squatted nearby, continuously rinsing her lips with the creek water, seemingly attempting to wash away the traces left by Qi Bei. However, in the reflection of the water, her delicate lips appeared slightly swollen and rosy, like a flower bathed in morning dew.
Ha I finally made it out Qi Bei suddenly shook off the water droplets from his face, took a deep breath of fresh air, and shouted towards the sky.
As for what had happened after escaping from the illusionary realm, Qi Bei himself had no knowledge. However, it didnt matter anymore. What mattered was that he had survived.
Ming Yue gazed at Qi Bei. Even with water droplets on his profile, it seemed as if he was enveloped in a divine light under the sunlight.
Qi Bei, who had undergone life and death struggles in the underground world and managed to break free from his own ambition in the illusions, experienced a metamorphosis like a butterfly emerging from its cocoon. His perception of the world had drastically changed compared to before.
While one can follow their heart, they cannot succumb to their desires.
Qi Bei gradually grasped his own truth, albeit still in its nascent stage. However, it would eventually mature as he ascended towards the pinnacle of the world.
Its none of your business. Ming Yue said coldly.
Hehe, youre my fiancee, how can it not be my business? Qi Bei laughed and asked.
Thats just a title, Princess Ming Yue said.
So youre saying that your oath in front of the Goddess of Life was fake, arent you deceiving the Goddess of Life? Thats a serious offense against the gods, Qi Bei smirked.
Ming Yue was taken aback, then she glared at Qi Bei and walked step by step towards him, standing in front of him and looking down at him.
Why are you looking at me like that? Qi Bei asked in confusion.
I did not deceive the Goddess of Life. I promised only the title and responsibility of being your fiancee, Ming Yue said word by word.
Qi Bei teased her and said, If I remember correctly, the oath was like this: bound for life, never leave or forsake each other. Can you really stay with me for a lifetime without leaving or forsaking me?
Cant say it? I can just take that as nonsense, anyway I have already offended the gods, but can you do it? Qi Bei continued.
Ming Yue stared at Qi Bei and remained silent, then suddenly turned her head and walked away.
Hey, are you planning to feed the wild beasts by walking alone? Qi Bei shouted.
But Ming Yue ignored Qi Bei and continued walking, soon disappearing into the distance as a small white dot.
Qi Bei sighed, the proud Princess Ming Yue had the temper of a little girl. They were still engaged and didnt have any deep hatred, and Qi Bei even had the upper hand in the Dragon Phoenix Valley. He couldnt just let her go like that.
So Qi Bei followed her.
Ming Yue felt Qi Bei following her and suddenly stopped, turned around and stared at him with a strange look that made Qi Bei feel a little uneasy.
This womans gaze was a bit eerie.
