Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
In the end, the Qinling Emperor decided to come back every once in a while so that he could cultivate and never forget his sister.
After the Qinling Emperor left, someone familiar asked his sister if she wasn’t worried about him encountering countless other women outside who might capture his heart.
His sister only smiled gently. “Little brother is not such a person. One day, he will roam three thousand miles with his sword. He is destined to be an eagle roaming in the sky outside. He cannot be bound to this small ancient city.” Before Li Qingshan and Monk Wu’o could sigh, the scene changed rapidly.
One scene after another, one battle after another, the Qinling Emperor grew rapidly. After each battle, he would return to the ancient city to accompany his sister.
His sister couldn’t cultivate and her lifespan couldn’t be extended. She would slowly age over time and eventually leave him after a hundred years. Qinling Emperor couldn’t accept this. He brought his sister to seek medical help everywhere.
He had been to the Celestial Court, the God Race, the Monster Clan, the Demonic sects, and even the Hell.
However, without exception, all renowned doctors were helpless against her symptoms.
It was as if she was born a mortal and couldn’t extend her lifespan.
The Qinling Emperor was unwilling to give up. He cultivated crazily to improve his sister’s quality of life. He searched for various natural treasures to extend her lifespan.
But ultimately, he failed.
When her sister was fifty years old, she chose to commit suicide and left behind a sentence.
“I cannot bear to grow old by your side, becoming a haggard old woman. I would rather leave the most beautiful memories of my youth with you.” Li Qingshan and Monk Wu’o sighed when they saw this.
“What kind of physique prevents one from prolonging their lifespan?” Li Qingshan was deeply puzzled. He had witnessed the Qinling Emperor’s relentless efforts to extend his sister’s life but to no avail. He couldn’t understand this matter.
“There are extraordinary physiques in this world, and naturally, there are ordinary ones as well. Living an ordinary life, with a lifespan of merely a hundred years, was his sister’s fate.” Monk Wu’o sighed. “Unfortunately, she encountered the astonishing era of the Qinling Emperor. Whether it was a blessing or a curse remains unclear.”
After the Qinling Emperor found out that his sister had committed suicide, he plunged into madness. He couldn’t accept it. He sealed his sister’s corpse in ice and searched everywhere for a way to resurrect her. He worked hard to improve himself and searched for ancient scriptures everywhere. In the end, the Qinling Emperor became the peak of the world.
Looking up, he was invincible in the world.
The Celestial Court invited him out of the mountain, the God Race invited him as a guest, and the Monster Clan invited him as a Demon Master…
The Qinling Emperor rejected them all.
His only goal was to resurrect his sister.
It had been hundreds of thousands of years since her sister committed suicide.
The Qinling Emperor had been searching for the answer for hundreds of thousands of years. He had tried the Great Path of Time, but it was unable to reverse the hundreds of thousands of years that had passed. Even if he went back in time, it would only be a flash in the pan.
What the Qinling Emperor needed was for his sister to be alive. In the end, through his relentless efforts, he found a way.
“I will challenge the heavens, reverse the six paths, reshape reincarnation, and bring my sister back.” The Qinling Emperor, who was at the peak of the world, looked up at the sky and said firmly.
After that, the Qinling Emperor refined the ancient city based on his childhood memories.
Everything in the ancient city was based on his childhood memories. This was his memory, and also his sister’s memory.
It was exactly the same.
However, after the ancient city was completed, the Qinling Emperor realized that he could restore things and the ancient city without any mistakes, but he couldn’t bring back the person who had already died.
In the end, the Qinling Emperor buried his sister in the ancient city. Next to his sister’s grave, he erected a tomb for himself.
Knowing that his chances were slim, the Qinling Emperor still decided to challenge the heavens, even if it meant sacrificing his life.
He wanted his sister back.
He left the ancient city in the Immortal Plane and ventured into the heavens alone.
After that, on a night when lightning flashed and thunder rumbled, the Qinling Emperor fell.
A peerless Immortal Emperor fell, and tears of blood fell from the sky. It was a sign of pity and mourning for the Qinling Emperor.
In the ancient city, a faint sigh could be heard.
Li Qingshan and Monk Wu’o saw this scene. They sighed at the same time.
“I suddenly understand what you meant when you said that the Qinling Emperor was fighting for his ideals,” Li Qingshan said.
The Qinling Emperor’s ideal was to resurrect his sister.
Invincibility in the world was meaningless to him. In his youth, he sought to explore the world and broaden his horizons.
However, after experiencing so much, the Qinling Emperor only wanted to hold his sister’s hand for the rest of his life.
“So this is how the Qinling Emperor died.” Monk Wu’o sighed.
As Li Qingshan and Monk Wu’o watched the scene come to an end, and the Stele World was about to disappear, Li Qingshan suddenly felt something was amiss.
“What’s wrong?” Monk Wu’o asked and looked at Li Qingshan with a furrowed brow.
Li Qingshan frowned and asked Monk Wu’o, “We’ve been watching the entire process. Did you notice that our perspective has been following the Qinling Emperor the entire time?”
Monk Wu’o nodded and said, “This is a record of the Qinling Emperor’s lifelong efforts. Is there a problem?” Li Qingshan shook his head “That’s a big problem.”
Monk Wu’o didn’t understand.
Li Qingshan said softly, “What if I tell you that I discovered that this world doesn’t belong to the Qinling Emperor? What would you think?”
“What do you mean?” Monk Wu’o frowned and looked at Li Qingshan.
Li Qingshan said calmly, “After entering the ancient city, there are two tombs.
One belongs to his sister, and the other supposedly belongs to the Qinling Emperor. However, the tomb of the Qinling Emperor is empty. Only his sister’s remains inside..”
