Chapter 1314: Chapter 389: [Martyrdom]_3
But... that’s how an eighteen-year-old girl views love.
I’m... thirty-two years old.
Miss Gu, in terms of cultivation, you surpass me tenfold.
But in terms of human nature, you’re much younger than me, and much simpler.
In the eyes of a thirty-something adult, things in this world are no longer that pure."
Seeing Gu Qingyi about to speak, Chu Keqing squeezed her palm: "No rush, let me finish first, okay."
She smiled again: "I’m very clear in my heart that Chen Yan has no affection for me.
Before I got involved with him, I watched him indulge himself for many days, watched him seek other women.
Yet he never took the final step, merely acting, trying things out. Later he told me not to keep watching him, saying it made him uncomfortable and hindered his refining heart.
I thought, since he’s looking for a woman, why couldn’t it be me.
Anyway, I wanted him; it’s what I wanted, and it was enough to get him.
As for whether he loves me or not... given my understanding of Chen Yan’s personality, even if he holds no affection for me, as long as we’re together, he won’t truly abandon me.
I’m not an eighteen-year-old girl from the Soviet Union; I don’t pursue an utterly pure love with no impurities, because such love is too rare, unable to be sought.
Eighteen-year-old Lu Sisi encountered it; it was her fate.
Thirty-two-year-old me, lacking such fortune, has accepted it.
Actually, without Lu Sisi’s presence, perhaps I would have succeeded long ago.
Miss Gu, do you know that Chen Yan is not someone who restrains his desires?
The first time he met me, the look in his eyes had desire.
Moreover, I know besides me, there’s other attractive women he knows.
For instance, the owner of the internet café has quite a different interest in him; you think Chen Yan’s unaware?
Men, those thoughts are easy to guess.
He just hasn’t taken the bait, but without Lu Sisi, who knows—maybe he’d succumb someday.
There’s also that currently popular young diva, Lin Xianyu, who once was quite close to Chen Yan.
But why did Chen Yan previously reject and distance himself from all women, including me?
To be honest, I once made a strong effort to seduce him.
When we went to Japan before, survived life and death together, presumably forming a deep bond.
Later, while he was soaking in the hot spring, I shamelessly and daringly stripped and jumped into the pool to tempt him.
That day I could see his indecision; it was true wavering.
Yet he still pushed me away, rejecting me.
I knew then... it was Lu Sisi who restrained Chen Yan!
Perhaps this should be stated differently: Lu Sisi was the barrier restraining Chen Yan’s thoughts!
Now, this barrier is gone."
At this point, Chu Keqing looked at Gu Qingyi: "Have you ever thought about a question...
I am also a cultivator, and although this world’s Heavenly Dao doesn’t allow the emergence above the Celestial Human Realm.
But I do understand the nature of realms.
So, have you considered that seeing through one’s mental realm...
Actually, beyond Heavenly Dao, Chen Yan could have done it himself long ago.
But before now, what’s been locking Chen Yan, preventing him from indulging his heart demon, from succumbing to desires, from having the opportunity to see through...
Was actually Lu Sisi!
Because having feelings for Lu Sisi, he placed a shackle on himself. He voluntarily restrained his desires, not indulging, and surely not attempting, honestly locking his heart away.
So... Lu Sisi left, and his lock is gone.
Miss Gu, even if it’s not me, there would certainly be other women you see on Chen Yan’s bed. If not me, then someone else, perhaps the internet café’s owner or Lin Xianyu, that demoness.
The lock is gone, and someone will eventually open this door."
Gu Qingyi listened until Chu Keqing finally finished speaking, then slowly said, "But do you know that now Chen Yan is very dangerous!"
Unexpectedly, Chu Keqing nodded solemnly: "I know!"
"You know?!"
"Defying Heavenly Dao suppression, trying to break through to Celestial Being! Miss Gu, I’m a cultivator in this world, and maybe your cultivation surpasses mine, but I understand the cultivation of this world better!
Ancestors in my sect have recorded legends of ancient attempts to break through, resulting in being punished by celestial tribulation, dying and vanishing!
So, how could I not know?"
Gu Qingyi’s face tightened: "Since you know, you should come with me to stop him!"
"Why stop him?" Suddenly, Chu Keqing’s eyes sparkled, her face surprisingly gleaming, loudly saying, "He possesses such a realm, such talent, such wisdom! And this determination!
Cultivators strive towards the heavens, walk towards the challenging! He wants to break through this barrier, it’s a supreme grand aspiration!
Even if it costs his life, he sacrifices himself for the Dao!
I only have admiration for his decision!"
Gu Qingyi felt her scalp tingle—as possibly because she’s from the Domain Realm, she’s ultimately an outsider to this world.
Thus, she genuinely failed to comprehend this world’s cultivators’ reverence and pursuit of "Realm-Breaking Celestial."
"But... he’ll die, and now that you’re together with him, he’s your man, aren’t you afraid of his death?"
Chu Keqing deeply inhaled, resolute: "My man is pursuing something so noble, how can I hold him back?!
If he dies for the Dao, then I’ll be his widow for life!!"
