After staying up all night, the effect of immortal power in Chu Ge’s body faded, and he realized that he was starving.
Tonight, Qiu Wuji didn’t cook and disappeared after healing his body. Thinking back to Qiu Wuji’s previous words about the five organs being unbalanced, Chu Ge felt that he still needed to maintain a regular schedule and continue exercising, otherwise, he would fall back to being lazy.
Next time she came over, Chu Ge wanted her to see him as a vibrant person.
Thinking about this, he opened the door to go out to eat, and the door across from him happened to open at the same time. A black-clad girl stepped out of the door and saw Chu Ge, who was also going out. The girl instinctively wanted to step back.
But seeing Chu Ge alone, the girl hesitated for a moment and eventually walked out. Chu Ge didn’t look at her, pressed the elevator button, and quietly waited for the elevator. The girl also stood quietly on the side, waiting until the elevator went down. The two of them stood silently in the elevator without saying a word.
“Ding!” The elevator arrived on the first floor.
As the door opened, the girl suddenly spoke, “I’m looking for a new place…I’ll be moving out in a few days. Sorry.”
After speaking, she hurriedly left.
Chu Ge slowly walked out of the elevator and left in the opposite direction.
It seems that this girl was quite clear-headed……she shouldn’t have been able to figure out Qiu Wuji’s invisibility, but maybe she guessed it from seeing him there. But that’s alright, she was a reasonable person.
Chu Ge realized that he didn’t feel the fear of encountering dangerous ability users. maybe because they had been neighbors for so long that they were acquaintances? Or perhaps it was because he had been held at swordpoint by the female tyrant, so he had seen it all…
Besides, he was a cultivator now… Chu Ge silently ate his beef noodle soup, feeling as if he could sense the process of energy being decomposed and integrated into his body, as if he was observing the universe in his body.
Foundation Building Realm.
For now, Chu Ge couldn’t replace sleep with meditation, so after finishing his breakfast, he took a shower and sat cross-legged on his bed, circulating the spiritual energy in his meridians according to Qiu Wuji’s instructions for thirty-six cycles
It was hard to say whether his cultivation had increased or not, but there was one benefit: he was extremely focused and calm. He hardly had any random thoughts before going to bed, and fell asleep as soon as he touched the pillow.
One thing was certain, Qiu Wuji is quite good at treating insomnia…
He woke up early the next day, even before dawn. After a night of deep sleep, he felt refreshed, so Chu Ge circulated his spiritual energy for another thirty-six cycles, and then went for a run, did push-ups, squats, took a shower, and ate breakfast. By the time he finished his morning routine, it was only a little past eight.
Sitting in front of his computer with a radiant expression, his mind felt much more agile and clear, and Chu Ge couldn’t help but want to shed tears.
With such full vitality, he should have been promoted at his workplace a few years ago.
It’s still ten thousand words today!
……
In Chu Ge’s enthusiastic writing, the anticipated surge in popularity arrived as scheduled.
Chu Ge hadn’t checked his backend data for a long time, but he couldn’t resist checking it repeatedly today.
The number of bookmarks was increasing at an alarming rate… with each refresh, dozens more were added. In less than an hour, it had already exceeded a thousand. Is this what a massive surge in popularity looks like?
How many of these bookmarks could be converted into subscriptions was still unknown. After all, new readers needed to read the free chapters before deciding whether to continue reading. It had only been an hour, and there was no feedback on subscriptions.
However, even with the most conservative conversion rate, it was certain that the numbers would increase significantly.
By the way, Chu Ge hadn’t checked the subscription data in a long time. Upon closer inspection, it had increased slightly compared to before the loss, indicating that many new readers had already come to read the book before the surge in popularity – perhaps related to the strange influx of readers a few days ago?
In this way, it seemed that the postscript that Chu Ge had written blindly due to Qin Wuji changing her fate didn’t fail.
Looking at it this way, the long-neglected data was not as bad as expected, and Chu Ge felt that there was a touch of good luck.
Was it because of the appearance of the female lead, bringing good luck to him?
Chu Ge took a deep breath and stopped checking the backend, focusing on writing. The final part of the chapters today had a special plot and Chu Ge didn’t want to be distracted by the results. He was writing about Qin Wuji and Yan Qianli resonating with the ‘Heavenly Dao Contract’ and setting up a wager.
In terms of description, it was like “As if the sound of muffled thunder came from the heavens, the golden words of the contract faintly appeared…”. As for how Qin Wuji communicated with the ‘Heavenly Dao,’ there was no specific process. This was just the author’s mechanical deification setting, not like he was really communicating with the Heavenly Dao.
But in Qin Wuji’s eyes, it was him, Chu Ge, who represented the “heavens,” and Qin Wuji knew about it. In her perspective, what would this plot look like?
In a sense, could Qiu Wuji feel his presence in her world?
Chu Ge nervously typed out these lines: “Qin Wuji seemed to feel the gaze of the heavens, as if something was echoing in her heart.”
He waited for a moment, but there was no response.
Chu Ge gritted his teeth and wrote even more clearly: “For her, the ‘heavens’ were no longer an intangible and mysterious thing, but a real and responsive entity.”
There was a feeling of something shattering, and Chu Ge’s screen gradually blurred, distorted, and then blue sky, white clouds, towering mountains faintly appeared before his eyes.
Qin Wuji stood on the mountaintop with her hands behind her back, and in front of her was a fierce man, covered in flames, like a demon.
Yan Qianli, one of the strongest Demon Lords in this world, capable of burning the sky and destroying the earth.
“Where did this so-called resonance with the Heavenly Dao come from, Qiu Wuji? Have you gone insane?” Yan Qianli laughed loudly. “What are we cultivating for? To break free from constraints! To break through this world, to wander beyond the boundaries, to conquer all realms! And you’re telling me you want to communicate with the Heavenly Dao, to let it restrain us? Hahaha! What kind of imaginary cultivation are you pursuing?”
Qiu Wuji said calmly: “In each realm, there are rules, and that is the Heavenly Dao. You and I have been cultivating the Heavenly Dao, and before we step out of it, we should at least respect it. Any method you use is actually within the Heavenly Dao. Do you think you created it by going against the heavens?”
“Hahaha, this is what you call walking toward the Dao, right? What a joke! If you have such thoughts, when will you be able to tear apart this sky?” Yan Qianli laughed. “I’m not going to argue with you about the Dao. If you want to follow the flow of water and go with the Heavenly Dao, then go ahead!”
Qiu Wuji replied coldly, “Since we know that we’re not on the same page, why bother talking?”
Yan Qianli laughed: “What I find ridiculous is that the so-called Heavenly Dao Contract is essentially the same as a vow, but you and I have been cultivating for so long that we are no longer limited by vows. What can the Heavenly Dao do to me? It’s useless for you to try to communicate with it, you know? You’ve been communicating for so long, did you get any response?”
Qiu Wuji looked up at the sky and said calmly, “Summer insects cannot talk with ice. Just wait and see.”
In her heart, she cursed Chu Ge, “What are you doing? Don’t tell me you haven’t written this plot yet, and I’m starting too early? Even if I started early, it should count, right?”
“Write faster, you bastard! I’m being laughed at!”
She wondered, “How does this Heavenly Dao resonance work? It’s intangible, isn’t it? Isn’t it Chu Ge himself?”
As she thought about this, she felt like the heavens were watching her.
Looking up, however, there was nothing there.
The laughter of Yan Qianli in front began to stop, and his eyes were somewhat suspicious.
Both of them felt a vast pressure descending upon their souls, vast and calm, like the flow of time, clearly existing yet intangible, irreversible.
A resonance seemed to echo deep in their souls: “The wager between Qiu Wuji and Yan Qianli has been established.”
A thunderous sound seemed to come from the sky, and golden characters faintly appeared, indicating that the agreement had been made.
Yan Qianli’s expression changed and he became extremely solemn. He really felt a constraint in his heart. If he broke the agreement afterwards, he was afraid that there would indeed be some problems…
Was this really happening?
However, Qiu Wuji did not take the opportunity to ridicule him.
In her soul sea, the smiling face of Chu Ge appeared clearly, winking at her provocatively.
Qiu Wuji’s lips curved into a smile as she silently responded, “So it’s really possible… to see you here.”
