On the other side, Yan Qianli felt the restraint of the Heavenly Dao Contract. Although his thoughts became serious, he was not tangled up about it.
The restraint was mutual. Since this was a gamble, Qiu Wuji was not guaranteed to win.
He could also win the wager, and not only obtain the Primordial Void Fire, but also trample on Qiu Wuji’s Cloud Horizon Sect.
Yes…the affairs of the sects outside the field will also affect the balance of the duel between the two sides. This matter cannot be taken lightly, and it needed to be planned carefully…
Yan Qianli pondered in his heart and smiled, “Since the Heavenly Dao Contract has been established and I have also agreed, when will our battle be? Sect Master Qiu can come up with a plan.”
Qiu Wuji’s beautiful eyes turned, she said smilingly, “What do you think?”
Yan Qianli laughed heartily and turned away, “Then on the fifteenth of July, the Night of a Hundred Ghosts!”
Qiu Wuji watched as Yan Qianli’s figure burned with flames and disappeared into the distance, seemingly indifferent, but in fact she was cursing inwardly, “There was no such thing as the Night of a Hundred Ghosts in our world. Why are you adding random elements?”
“Huh? I was writing smoothly and came up with this setting on a whim. That’s inspiration. Besides, the next plot really is about the Night of a Hundred Ghosts. Oh, and the title of the volume can also use this term. It’s so cool, haha, I’m so smart.”
Qiu Wuji gritted her teeth and really wanted to drag him here and give him a beating.
But she found out she couldn’t.
It was really a vast and mysterious fate, intangible and invisible. He could find her, but she didn’t know where he was.
Chu Ge also noticed and said, “Do you want to beat me up but don’t have a target? Hahaha, isn’t that amazing? Call me the Creator God!”
Qiu Wuji”…”
She gritted her teeth and flew back to the sect on her sword. As soon as she entered the sect, she said, “Go and do the things I arranged earlier. I need to go into seclusion and prepare for the battle with Yan Qianli.”
In the next moment, Chu Ge in front of the computer was lifted up by the back of his collar. “Do you think I can’t beat you? It’s amazing? Creator God?”
“What the f*ck?” Chu Ge was bewildered. “Hey, don’t beat me ! Are you coming out so easily now? You don’t need to wait for a cooldown? Isn’t that unreasonabe… “
Qiu Wuji sneered, “What? Don’t want me to come out at any time?”
“How could that be?” Chu Ge was excited, “It’s really awesome if you can come out at any time. When I’m in danger, I can shout for help and be invincible, right?”
“You’re thinking too highly of yourself. Why should I listen to you when you shout for help?” Qiu Wuji said angrily, “Are you acting like you’re the lord of heaven and forgetting your identity? I’ve been gone for more than ten days in my own world. The sect has done a lot of things secretly during this time. I’ve recovered from all my soul fatigue during such a long time. Otherwise, how could I dare to rashly make an appointment with Yan Qianli for a battle? Do you think I’m as foolish as you?”
“Oh, so it’s been more than ten days for you?” Chu Ge thought about it and realized that it made sense. Although it had only been one day in his world, the time in the book advanced quickly with consecutive updates. The same thing happened last time, with the Poison Hand Devil Lord incident happening “seven days later,” and she returned the next day.
In other words, if he wanted to speed up the appearance of Qiu Wuji, all he had to do was write “three days later” or “seven days later”? What if he wrote “a thousand years later”? Would Qiu Wuji really be stuck there for a thousand years?
The thought made him shudder.
“Also, why do I have to come out just because I can?” Qiu Wuji glanced at him and asked, “Do you have any misconceptions about me? Do you think I have nothing to do?”
“Oh, stop with the formal tone,” Chu Ge laughed. “Didn’t we go over this before? Why are you doing this on purpose?”
Qiu Wuji snorted and didn’t answer.
“If you want to understand the new world, you have to come out eventually,” Chu Ge said with a smile. “Even without that, you need to see my subsequent comparisons to figure out how to break free from the story’s influence.”
Qiu Wuji let out a light sigh.
It was this kind of attitude that made her unable to dislike Chu Ge.
If it were any other man, someone who could manipulate her life, define her thoughts and love, they wouldn’t be like Chu Ge who genuinely tried to help her get out.
Maybe his goals were different from others. He just wanted to write a character who could truly become independent, which would be pretty awesome.
Qiu Wuji didn’t argue with him anymore and instead asked, “Can you appear as the Heavenly Dao anytime now? Can you do anything else?”
“For now, it doesn’t seem like it. It’s only when I write the storyline of you communicating with the Heavenly Dao that I can communicate with you. But I think there’s a lot of potential in this. I’ll study it and see if I can create a scenario where the Heavenly Dao transforms into a human form. If that works, then I’ll be invincible when I arrive…”
“I think the possibility of that is low. It’s too absurd to think that a person who didn’t cultivate all his life can become invincible. That has to be problematic, right? Or maybe it goes against the ‘consistency’ that you need in your novel if you suddenly come up with the idea of Heavenly Dao transforming into a human?”
“Hiss, you understand so much now…”
Qiu Wuji gritted her teeth and said, “Can’t I be jealous? I’ve been cultivating for ten thousand years, and you just come in and become invincible. Why should that be?”
“Okay, okay, I know you’re an old lady!” As he spoke, Chu Ge quickly assumed a defensive posture.
Qiu Wuji glanced at him and said, “You sad masochist. I won’t satisfy you.”
Chu Ge: “?”
“A low-level cultivator who hasn’t even reach the Qi refining stage, don’t think about being invincible every day.” Qiu Wuji sneered, “If you really want to enter our world in a big way, you definitely need to have a certain foundation in cultivation, no doubt about it. I suspect the reason why you can communicate this time is also because you’ve already started cultivating.”
Chu Ge thought it made sense and didn’t say anything. It was reasonable, but if he really wanted to achieve what desired, he would have to cultivate for a long time…
“As for comparing my actions to your plot, that’s the serious matter,” Qiu Wuji said as she leaned in to look at the chapter he had published. As she read, her expression gradually became more and more unpleasant.
Chu Ge asked curiously, “What’s wrong?”
“This…what’s the meaning of the battle for supremacy?”
“Oh, this is based on a deduction from the plot. You see, this kind of game involving the strongest will definitely attract worldwide attention and have far-reaching consequences, with both sides having friendly and hostile forces, and mutual involvement. As the head of a sect, even if you didn’t have this kind of management awareness in the past, , you would certainly prepare for it in the face of a major battle.”
Qiu Wuji fell silent.
Looking at her expression, Chu Ge cautiously said, “It’s not necessary to compete for dominance, but in a sect’s internal strife, using various means is what a leader who dominates the scene should do. And if you can really subdue or even destroy the Fire Prison Sect, you will be able to overlook the world, and you will be the uncrowned emperor even without talking about fighting for supremacy.”
Qiu Wuji looked up and thought for a long time, then suddenly laughed self-deprecatingly, “I thought I had changed my style of doing things, but it turns out the logical deduction I came up with was something you wrote?”
“Um…”
“So, did I do this because of what you wrote, or because I truly believed it?”
Chu Ge thought for a moment and replied, “You are different now from the past. In the past, you couldn’t sense if your thoughts were being imposed upon, but you can now. If you didn’t feel any such signs this time, it may not be because of what I wrote.”
Qiu Wuji became more alert, “What is it then?”
Chu Ge smiled, “Why can’t it be that our hearts are in sync?”
Qiu Wuji glared at him angrily, while Chu Ge calmly met her gaze.
After staring at each other for a while, Qiu Wuji turned her eyes away, “It’s not necessarily that our hearts are in sync; it’s just that you know me too well.”
She sighed. “Whatever the reason, it gives me a sense of fate that I can’t escape, as if I’m caught in an inescapable net…I hate this feeling.”
Suddenly, Chu Ge said, “What’s wrong with having someone who understands you?”
Qiu Wuji looked back at him again.
“Just now, your words reminded me that our hearts might not be in sync after all,” Chu Ge smiled. “So, Qiu Wuji, how much do you really know about me?”
