Chapter 504 Who else is there?
The scene before her eyes changed rapidly, and she and her second senior brother found themselves on a vast expanse of water.
The second senior brother walked ahead, and she chased after him.
Suddenly, a figure appeared at the end of the world, wearing a moon-white robe, a white jade hair ornament, and carrying a folding fan, exuding elegance and grace.
The second senior brother stopped immediately upon seeing that person.
Jiang Liqian subconsciously chased after it, but the next second, her feet slipped and she fell into a sea of fire.
The fire was raging, the sky was painted a blood red, and something was cracking, inch by inch, bit by bit, as if tearing apart human bones.
Transparent shards, like fragments of glass, fell from the sky.
Amidst the rolling flames, one could vaguely hear people wailing, crying out, and shouting something with heart-wrenching intensity.
The world was a sea of red.
Purgatory on earth.
Startled awake from the terrifying scene, Jiang Liqian realized she was still in the water. She could hear Jiang Yueming's voice from time to time, but she couldn't understand what he was saying. However, she could see the same look of terror in her second senior brother's eyes.
"Second Senior Brother!" she shouted at him.
The scene before my eyes suddenly reversed.
The second senior brother stepped into the night, a flash of light beneath his feet, and he had already passed through a large patch of crabapple blossoms, passed through the wall, and entered the third senior sister's room.
He sat silently by the bed, gazing tenderly at his sleeping third senior sister, as if he were both reluctant to part with her and longing to remember her completely.
His gaze gradually turned sorrowful, and his right hand involuntarily stroked her hair, yet he was afraid of waking her, so he only vaguely traced her shadow.
His lips moved silently, as if he were saying her name, or as if he were saying goodbye word by word.
He sat beside her for a very long time, and as the sun rose, he seemed to finally make up his mind and quietly left.
Jiang Liqian was about to chase after her when she suddenly fell into a cave filled with abundant spiritual energy.
In the very center of the cave was a straw-woven futon, on which the second senior brother was meditating in seclusion.
Fearing that interrupting him abruptly during his seclusion would cause the entire dream world to collapse, Jiang Liqian could only sit beside him and wait for him to wake up from his seclusion.
And so, the grass grew tall and the birds sang, snow fell all over the sky, spring came and autumn came, summer solstice and winter departed, and countless years passed.
Jiang Liqian knew that her second senior brother was strict with himself and obsessed with cultivation, but she did not expect him to be so strict and so obsessed.
Just when she felt she was about to pass away there, the scene before her eyes finally changed again.
This time, it was outside the Glazed Palace. Through the crack in the door, the second senior brother silently watched his master walking back and forth inside with a solemn expression, until his master finally noticed him and called him in.
"Wen Nian, among your fellow disciples, you are the most sensible and the most insightful. Your eldest brother is obsessed with invention, and your junior brothers are still young, especially An'er, who is the most rebellious. If I am ever temporarily away from the peak, you must keep a close eye on them and make sure your eldest brother takes on the responsibility of the peak. Also, don't let your youngest brother do anything irreversible, understand?"
The second senior brother remained silent and obediently responded.
Through the colorful, glittering glass windows, Jiang Liqian couldn't see his expression.
The scene changed again, this time finally arriving at a scene that Jiang Liqian was very familiar with, one that had only recently occurred.
She hurriedly returned to the sect using Gu Chengxue's flying sword. Upon hearing that her second senior brother had been imprisoned in the dungeon of the discipline hall, she immediately found her senior brother Ji and asked him to let her in for a look.
The second senior brother, his breath faint, leaned against the healing array, relying on its spiritual energy to gradually recover. She burst in, thinking that the people from the Discipline Hall had tortured the second senior brother without her permission, and almost drew her sword against them. In the end, the second senior brother stopped her and explained the source of his injuries.
She apologized to the disciples in the discipline hall with remorse. Her second senior brother struggled to hold her hand and urged her to go find their master immediately, and no matter what, not to let their master leave.
Before she could ask any more questions, her second senior brother pushed her out of the dungeon. Feeling uneasy, she immediately followed his instructions and went to find their master.
Later, her master told her that it was all a misunderstanding.
Right now, this is the scene after she was pushed away by her second senior brother.
The second senior brother, supporting his severely injured body, gripped the dungeon bars tightly with both hands. As time passed, the anxiety in his eyes turned into despair.
His wound was bleeding, and he was becoming increasingly delirious, muttering repeatedly, "It should be me, it has to be me, I'm ready, I'm ready..."
"No, you can't... Master..."
"I'll give my life to fill this gap, it can't be them, it can't be Qingqing... it can't be, it's Master..."
Jiang Liqian stood there, stunned. In an instant, the stone's prophecy, the theft of the Golden Scale Key, her master's words of comfort, the extraordinary tolerance of Sect Leader Qingzhi, and Elder Jiang's hesitant words and sorrowful eyes... everything seemed like a tangled mess, tightening around her and making it almost impossible for her to breathe.
She should have realized something.
But in reality, she understood nothing.
Her legs seemed to have a mind of their own, and she walked forward step by step from the dim corner to the prison door. Through the layers of restrictions, she asked the nearly unconscious Fu Wennian in a trembling voice, "Second Senior Brother, what are you going to do?"
"Repair... mend... the sealing array..."
"Where is the sealing formation located?"
"day by day……"
"The Outer Realm, is that right?"
Inside the dungeon, there was a suffocating silence.
Jiang Liqian clearly didn't want to cry, but tears still streamed down her face. Her voice trembled as she tried to prove something, yet didn't want to know the truth. She asked one last question in a trembling voice.
"How does Senior Brother plan to repair the seal?"
Silence fell over the dungeon once more.
Jiang Liqian used all the strength she had in her life to force herself not to run away, to force herself to calm down, and to wait for his answer.
"To sacrifice oneself...to the formation."
Bang!
The heavy hammer hit her, making her dizzy.
She could no longer feel the bitterness of tears.
He sacrificed himself to repair the seal.
The Golden Scale Key was stolen, and things got worse, but now the Second Senior Brother is still here, so who set up the formation?
It's not the eldest brother, not the third sister, not the youngest brother, and not her!
Who else?
Who else?
The moon is dark and gloomy, Jupiter is in retrograde, and the family palace is affected.
The moon is dark and gloomy, Jupiter is in retrograde, and the family palace is affected!
【Qian'er, the path of cultivation is very long, and things won't always go as planned. The further you go, the more you will lose. This isn't your fault. I know you're sad and heartbroken, but the most important thing in cultivation is cultivating your heart. You must learn to accept, learn to let go, learn to forget the past. Stepping over your pain, you must move forward steadfastly. Only then will you truly grow up and be able to pursue your own path to immortality.】
Remember my words, Qian'er.
This world is beautiful, yet beauty is fleeting, but it is still enough to be remembered for a lifetime, propelling you to keep going.
So, back then, her master had already said goodbye to her.
