"Pure without losing allure, intellectual and elegant, well versed in the divine chronicles, souls in harmony!"
"That was Elder Ge’s evaluation of Hua Junshuang!"
"Even after a million years, when speaking of her again, his eyes were still filled with love."
"That’s right. The woman before him was the greatest stumbling block in Elder Ge’s attempt to be a good man."
"If she had not appeared back then, Madam Li Mu would not have stormed off with their daughter Zhu Xincheng."
"Perhaps that would not have given Pang Bobing an opportunity."
"Maybe the tragedy would never have happened."
"But in this world, there are not so many ifs and additions."
"Some things, once they happen, simply happen!"
"They are utterly impossible to undo."
"What Ye Yu never expected was that he would actually run into the woman Elder Ge once called the succubus of the divine chronicles."
"Seriously? Is the God Realm really that small?"
"Hua Junshuang just happens to be the martial uncle of Zong Shangbang and Luo Xue?"
"And when I killed Luo Xue, Hua Junshuang just happened to be passing by?"
"Isn’t that a bit too coincidental?"
Ye Yu’s gaze flickered. Before he could speak, Hua Junshuang broke the silence first.
"Enough. Stop thinking. I followed the scent on you. You carry his aura. Tell me, where is he? Ge Shen!"
Ye Yu raised an eyebrow slightly.
"So she’s not here for me, but for Elder Ge?"
"Mm, that makes sense. After Li Mu’s death and the father daughter rupture with Zhu Xincheng..."
"Elder Ge completely disappeared."
"The Ge Shen once hailed as the Hands of God never appeared again."
"What remained was merely a bald, cross eyed old man, shrinking inside a second rate Divine Alliance, basking in the sun every day and doing odd jobs repairing divine artifacts."
"As for his old friends, Elder Ge no longer contacted any of them, let alone Hua Junshuang."
"This woman likely occupied an extremely complicated place in his heart."
"Without a doubt, the position of a soulmate."
"But it was also because of her appearance that his family had shattered."
"If not for that incident, Elder Ge would never have avoided Hua Junshuang."
"Since that was the case, Ye Yu had no intention of revealing Elder Ge’s whereabouts and letting them meet."
"That bald old man had already suffered enough."
"Why force him to see someone he did not wish to see?"
Thinking this, Ye Yu said softly, "I have nothing to tell you. He likely does not want to see you."
Hua Junshuang did not seem surprised by the answer, but she still tried.
"I heard a little about what happened back then. I am sorry for it. But after so much time, has he still not let it go?"
"Whether he lets it go is for Elder Ge to decide. I have no right to judge. Do you have anything else? If not, I’ll be leaving. Of course, if you want to keep me and force the answer out of me, feel free to try."
Ye Yu flicked his sleeve wide, ready to fight at any moment.
"Old bastard, for you I’m prepared to sacrifice myself. If I really die here, next time we meet you’d better kneel when you speak to me!"
Hua Junshuang shook her head.
"Since you refuse to say, then forget it. I am not someone who forces others."
With that, she made a gesture inviting him to leave.
Seeing this, Ye Yu did not hesitate in the slightest. He turned and left.
After he was gone—
A shadow suddenly appeared beside Hua Junshuang and rasped, "Why not keep that brat? He definitely knows Ge Shen’s whereabouts!"
Hua Junshuang replied with a teasing smile, "Why make it so troublesome? All along, we thought Ge Shen was dead, so we never searched for him. But now that we know he is alive, finding him will be much easier. Do not forget, I am the woman who understands him best."
Hearing this, the man in the shadows could not help but laugh.
The hoarse laughter was extremely grating.
Though his figure remained impossible to see clearly, if Elder Ge were here, he would recognize him instantly from the voice.
This person was Pang Bobing, the one who had destroyed his family.
That’s right. Pang Bobing had not died.
The corpse and the traces of battle before had merely been pre arranged misdirection.
After all, once targeted by the enraged Ge Shen, survival would have been impossible.
To live on, Pang Bobing had no choice but to fake his death.
Afterward, he changed his name and identity, and kept himself forever shrouded in shadow.
Becoming a shadow that never shows its face.
Two days later.
Outside the Blazing Sun Gate.
The distraught Elder Ge was completely gone. In his place stood a spirited Old Ge.
As the classic representative of fighting and losing, losing and fighting again—
Elder Ge possessed a powerful heart and a face thicker than five Divine Alliances stacked together.
Therefore, no matter how upset or disheartened he had been before, it did not matter.
What mattered was that before long, he would make a comeback!
Perhaps, in Elder Ge’s heart, there was only one thing left in the second half of his life: to gain his daughter’s forgiveness, then go to the burial place of his wife Li Mu and tell her the good news.
That would be true fulfillment.
Of course, before that, he had to obtain his daughter’s forgiveness first.
Elder Ge strode forward with the swaggering steps of a Human Emperor who acknowledged no kin, walking up boldly and chatting familiarly with the Divine Race guards on duty today.
"Hey, Little Zhao, on duty again today? Not bad, haven’t seen you in a while and your cultivation has improved. The divine sword I repaired for you is ready. Here, take it."
"Divine stones? What divine stones? It’s free, free!"
"Oh, Little Lu, you’re here too? Didn’t I tell you last time, if you have any divine artifacts that don’t feel right, just bring them to me. Uncle will handle it for you. Don’t be shy. If you keep being polite with me, Uncle’s going to get angry!"
...
Because Elder Ge came to the Blazing Sun Gate so frequently in the past—
He was already extremely familiar with the people in the Divine Alliance.
For his own convenience, he had dealt with these ordinary members of the Divine Race quite a lot, all so that when something came up, they might grant him a little leeway.
Just like now.
Elder Ge seemed to be rambling, but every word was steeped in favors owed.
Under such circumstances, even if the Divine Race guards stationed at the entrance of the Blazing Sun Gate wanted to stop him, they had no face to act.
The reason was simple.
Elder Ge had done them all favors before.
If they blocked him now when he was just returning, would that not make them ungrateful wretches?
But the Lord of the Divine Alliance had issued an order—
Elder Ge was absolutely not permitted to step into the Blazing Sun Gate again.
It truly put them in a difficult position.
Just as Elder Ge was about to swagger straight into the Divine Alliance—
A figure suddenly appeared in front of him, blocking his path.
It was Xiao Cui.
