Chapter 154: Heavenly Realm

Chapter 154: Heavenly Realm

Indeed, it’s quite similar to those self-proclaimed emperors. Moon Shadow and Chu Ge weren’t there to target anyone. Moon Shadow just had the thought of revisiting old memories before leaving, taking a last look and having a drink with an acquaintance, and incidentally, if she encountered anything troublesome, she would handle it...

It made Zhang Xiaoren seem like a clown.

After the police got involved, Moon Shadow didn’t even stay. She simply said to Chu Ge, “Goodbye,” in a casual tone. And then she disappeared into the night.

It seemed like it would be a long time before they would meet again...

Chu Ge didn’t try to stop her either... In fact, he had intentions of moving as well. Their current rental felt too small, especially with Qi Wuji moving in. As their daily necessities increased, the rental space felt increasingly cramped. Not to mention the number of women’s clothes... well, in these past few months, the amount of clothes surpassed what Chu Ge had accumulated in several years.

With Moon Shadow’s departure and his own plans to move, it felt like a complete end to the time when the two of them struggled in that run-down rental place.

One had become a popular author, not a massive success, but still quite popular. The other one had gone abroad to become a boss. Starting from a small, struggling company, it seemed to have more potential than their previous struggles. Moreover, there might be assets to fight for in the future.

And one, who used to live across the hall, the lonely girl who failed as a struggling livestreamer and was deceived into participating in underground fights, had now joined the public service. Although she seemed to have skipped the civil service exam and entered through another path... With her demeanor, being steadfast and hardworking, she always had a promising future, at the very least, she would always have stability.

And then all those known scoundrels were taken down one by one... It felt like the sky had cleared a bit.

Hmm, although the weather seems clear now, there might be rain in the near future...

“This weather might bring rain,” Lin Wuyang leaned in and instinctively offered him a cigarette, his smiling face not at all indicating any concerns about the rain.

Chu Ge waved his hand. “I don’t smoke, I’ve told you...”

“A grown man like you who doesn’t smoke... Oh right, sister-in-law gives you a stern look and you shrink back. Your family status is quite worrying.”

“And if I hit you right now, would you consider it assaulting an officer?”

“Haha...” Lin Wuyang exhaled a long puff of smoke, as if trying to exhale all his recent frustrations. He leisurely said, “This Zhang Xiaoren is such a stupidly good guy, he has improved my mood a lot.”

Chu Ge said, “He’s like one of those brainless antagonists from novels, you’re bound to encounter one or two... Zhang Qiren used to complain about his brother, calling him a waste. At that time, I thought he had some resentment, deliberately blackening his name. But now, it’s clear he really is a waste.”

“I also thought Zhang Qiren had a lot of grievances before. I thought, although your situation wasn’t good, there are many people in the world who have it worse, and they don’t have your level of resentment. But now, in comparison, Zhang Qiren turns out to be the more prominent figure. It’s his brother who truly falls short.”

Chu Ge didn’t respond. In his own perception, at least Zhang Qiren didn’t harbor resentment towards him.

Let’s not talk about that.

“Zhang Xinglong has always been busy, with little time to educate his child. And then there’s his mother, with that brainless and pampered appearance. It’s no surprise that Zhang Xiaoren turned out this way,” Lin Wuyang said leisurely. “There are still many similar cases. The term ‘playboy scions’ has existed throughout history, and it also finds its roots in reality and novels. When you have children in the future, you have to handle this well. Both parents being powerful individuals with supernatural abilities, don’t raise a little tyrant who ends up being carried away by Uncle Lin.”

Normally, he struggled to counter and dismantle the moves of Qiu Wuji, getting beaten up every day. How come these people compare...? Fighting against a group of them was like playing. If he wasn’t afraid of killing Zhang Xiaoren, he could have really killed him.

Another interesting thing was that Zhang Xiaoren also had a superpower, probably weaker, but sorry to say, Chu Ge still didn’t know what his power was. It didn’t affect him at all...

With the near-seven-star mental strength and the solidification of his soul through Qi Wuji’s method, Zhang Xiaoren’s abilities were futile against him. Chu Ge could see the astonishment and despair on his face.

If he could at least use the “Heaven and Earth Technique” on the opponent, that would be good enough. He was still reserving his strength.

Chu Ge suddenly realized that if he unleashed his full power, his fighting ability seemed capable of dominating Nanjiang. He felt a bit overconfident.

The more confident he became, the more he missed Qi Wuji. Without her, would he have become such a powerful Cabalash Brother?

By the way, it has been three days since she left... and she hasn’t returned! Is the Complete Works of Gu Long more interesting than me? Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon!

Chu Ge once again used the “Heaven and Earth Technique” to go find his wife. Speaking of it, since he learned his mother’s spatial manipulation technique, he indeed felt that the “Heaven and Earth Technique” became smoother to use.

Before, he usually had to sit in front of the computer, tune into the feeling, and then go through great effort to establish a connection. Now, anytime and anywhere, whenever he wanted to establish a connection, he could “see” it.

It truly felt like another “personal space,” exclusively his own, created and mastered by himself. As Qi Wuji said, the sense of ownership and the feeling of overlooking became more pronounced with each passing day.

What is Qi Wuji doing at this moment? She is not reading or writing... she is doing something she hasn’t done in a long time.

Attempting to break free from the Heavenly Dao.

This was one of their main themes from the beginning, but it was temporarily put on hold due to various events recently. Besides, when they were caught up in the fervor of their intimate affair, Qi Wuji didn’t have the thought to break free from anything. After all, they were embracing and enjoying each other, so what was there to break free from?

Now that she has been calm for a couple of days, those thoughts naturally became active again. Especially now that she has also learned the way of space.

Qi Wuji was originally a powerhouse in Crossing Tribulation Stage. If it weren’t for being trapped by that annoying Heavenly Dao plot, she would have had enough power to ascend. But now she had to follow the script of the annoying Heavenly Dao, diligently collecting the items needed for the Four Symbols Array and wasting time on the White Tiger’s Fang.

If it weren’t for the fact that the Heavenly Dao is quite cute and can give kisses, anyone else would have already swung a sword at it. It’s really frustrating.

Now that she has learned the way of space, Qi Wuji can even faintly sense the existence of the “Heavenly Realm.” It is a hazy, unopened “map” that exists only in Chu Ge’s imagination, without even a rough outline. She can already perceive the existence of the “pre-set map areas.” It’s just one layer of space away, hard to explain and understand.

Qi Wuji stood atop a mountain, looking up at the sky, her divine sword swirling around her, her expression cold and solemn. A majestic aura surged around her, the weather changed, and the sun and moon lost their light.

That was the imposing aura of a powerful figure that Chu Ge hadn’t seen in a long time.

If... beyond the plot, she had quietly taken a stroll in the Heavenly Realm, seemingly without changing anything... how would things turn out?
