After listening to Bamboo Xincheng’s explanation, Ye Yu also became quite curious.
After becoming a god, as long as one does not actively seek death in the God Realm, there is essentially no such thing as falling.
“To share the same lifespan as heaven and earth” is not just a figure of speech in this place.
If that is the case, then the rumored number one figure of the God Realm—already the strongest—why would he have fallen?
Was he killed by an enemy? Or did he end his own life?
Seeing Ye Yu sink into deep thought, Bamboo Xincheng snorted coldly and turned to leave.
“Fine. It seems even a place where someone fell holds more appeal to you than I do.”
“How can you not tell what matters more?”
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Her pace quickened, and within two breaths, she disappeared from the spot.
Seeing this, Ye Yu’s expression turned strange.
They say a woman’s heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea.
They had been talking perfectly fine—how did she suddenly leave without even saying a word?
So rude!
“I was just asking. I wasn’t even planning to go. Was that really worth getting angry over?”
But honestly, if given the chance, Ye Yu really did want to take a look at that place.
If he could find some divine techniques there, he would instantly soar.
Meanwhile, Bamboo Xincheng found Little Cui and poured out all her dissatisfaction.
After hearing everything, not only did Little Cui not take her side, she even laughed on the spot.
Seeing this, Bamboo Xincheng said gloomily, “Cui’er, what are you laughing at? Do you know how uncomfortable I feel right now? I’m even starting to think that in Ye Yu’s heart, the grave of a fallen god is more important than me!”
Little Cui shook her head slightly. “Sect Master, you’ve fallen into a misunderstanding. You thought that Ye Yu would use this opportunity to make a request and confess to you? That’s absolutely impossible.”
“Although I haven’t known him for long, I can tell he’s a proper gentleman. He would never use a favor to force someone into being with him.”
“In other words, if you didn’t like him, but he suddenly used that favor to ask you to become his Daoist partner, you would definitely feel very troubled.”
“So in my opinion, Ye Yu acted this way simply because he didn’t want to pressure you with his favor.”
Hearing this, Bamboo Xincheng immediately felt it made a lot of sense.
That really was a possibility.
After thinking it over again and again, she cautiously asked, “So what you’re saying is... I should confess to him first? That’s so embarrassing!”
Little Cui smiled. “If Sect Master finds it hard to make the first move, you can also wait for Ye Yu to take the initiative and break that barrier.”
“As long as you don’t find the waiting unbearable.”
“In my view, Ye Yu is also rather thin-skinned. Otherwise, he wouldn’t just secretly look at you—he would look openly.”
Bamboo Xincheng couldn’t help but frown.
She was too embarrassed to speak first, so she wanted to wait for Ye Yu to confess. But at the same time, she was afraid the wait would be too long.
What a dilemma.
So she curiously asked if there was any way to get the best of both worlds.
She really did not want to wait too long.
The smile on Little Cui’s face did not fade.
“What’s so difficult about that? As long as Sect Master creates more opportunities for the two of you to be alone together, once you spend enough time together, things will naturally fall into place. This is what people call feelings growing over time.”
Bamboo Xincheng instantly felt enlightened.
That’s right—what was so difficult about finding a Daoist partner?
Feelings would naturally grow over time.
“No, I need to go find Ye Yu again. Isn’t he interested in the place where Gao Zong fell? Then I’ll take him there. It’ll also count as time alone together!”
Her eyes grew brighter and brighter, and she immediately turned to leave.
But before going far, she suddenly turned back again.
She looked at Little Cui with curiosity.
“Wait a second—you don’t even have a Daoist partner. How do you know so much?”
Little Cui slightly raised her chin.
“I may not have practical experience, but I’ve done plenty of theoretical study. So naturally, I understand a little more than Sect Master.”
Bamboo Xincheng raised an eyebrow slightly.
“What a theory.”
After that, she didn’t linger any longer. She quickly returned to the side hall and found Ye Yu, who was just about to leave.
When Ye Yu saw Bamboo Xincheng arrive, he was also slightly stunned.
“I was just about to come find you to say goodbye. I didn’t expect you to come back on your own. Oh, right, don’t worry—I won’t tell anyone about the divine stone mine, nor will I secretly explore it myself. If you don’t believe me, I can swear on the Great Dao!”
Thinking of how agitated she had been earlier when talking about the secret of the divine stone mine, Ye Yu immediately gave her reassurance.
Just in case she misunderstood his departure as him going to search for the place where Gao Zong had fallen.
Bamboo Xincheng couldn’t help but widen her eyes and quickly asked, “Why are you leaving?”
“I... I was already planning to go out and travel. It was you who insisted on thanking me, so I came to Blazing Sun Sect. Now that you’ve told me the secret of the divine stone mine, that counts as your thanks. Since everything is settled, of course I should leave.”
Ye Yu almost lost confidence from that question.
No, seriously—I asked about the divine stone mine and you got emotional, fine. But now that I’m leaving, why are you getting this emotional again?
Are you bipolar or something?
Bamboo Xincheng immediately stepped forward and blocked his path, speaking seriously, “Don’t go. Come with me to the divine stone mine. I’ll take you to see the place where Gao Zong fell!”
Hearing this, Ye Yu was instantly intrigued.
“Really?”
“Of course it’s true. The spatial distortion should be close to stabilizing by now. The two of us going in together is just right.”
At this point, Bamboo Xincheng paused slightly. Her pretty face flushed faintly, and she looked to the side, pretending to remain calm as she continued, “Don’t worry. It’ll just be the two of us. No one else.”
The smile on Ye Yu’s face instantly froze.
As the saying goes, meaning lies beneath the words.
Why did she have to specifically emphasize that last sentence?
Just the two of them?
What did that mean?
Could it be that, in order to prevent Gao Zong’s secret from spreading, she planned to silence him?
Hiss—if that were the case, then this woman was truly ruthless.
No matter what, he was her lifesaver. How could she treat him like this?
The more Ye Yu thought about it, the more something felt off.
The way he looked at Bamboo Xincheng also became filled with vigilance.
