Chapter 357: Sun Ruowei’s Choice

Yue Hongling suddenly slapped her palm against her forehead, a blow strong enough to make her head explode.

Suddenly, a loud sound of something tearing through the air erupted.

A blood-red light surged towards Yue Hongling at breakneck speed. Just as her palm was within three centimeters of her forehead, someone grabbed her wrist.

Startled, Yue Hongling looked up with joy.

“Senior Brother!”

Before her stood Shangguan Huanling.

“Hongling, I’m not Lu Ye, but please don’t do something foolish!” Shangguan Huanling said anxiously.

The light in Yue Hongling’s eyes dimmed visibly.

Just let me die!

She struggled hard but couldn’t break free from Shangguan Huanling’s grip.

“Hongling, Hongling, are you really going to give up halfway?”

“Didn’t we agree to bring Lu Ye back? If you die now, you’ll never get his forgiveness!” Shangguan Huanling urged desperately.

“Huanling, there’s no more chance…” Yue Hongling said with a hoarse voice.

“No, there is a chance! There will definitely be a chance! As long as we keep going, Lu Ye will eventually be touched. Even if it takes a thousand or ten thousand years, that day will come!”

“It won’t happen, it won’t!”

“It will, it surely will!”

“Huanling, can’t you see? I’m already useless. I’ll never catch up to Senior Brother’s cultivation speed again, and I won’t even live to see him become a saint. I have no chance left, let me go, and let me end it myself!”

“No! The heavens don’t completely shut their doors. I started without any Dao and still reached the Great Emperor level! You can cultivate the **Origins Devouring Heaven Sutra** with me!”

“Hongling, there’s still hope!”

“There’s still hope!”

Yue Hongling never thought that the one standing before her in the end would be Shangguan Huanling.

Actually, before her reincarnation, Yue Hongling loathed Shangguan Huanling the most; her “dumb syndrome” resulted in her even losing her Emotion Dao—so ridiculously stupid it was beyond words.

But after coming back to life, while still disliking Shangguan Huanling, it didn’t feel as intense. First, because they shared a similar plight, and second, because there was someone even more loathsome—

Shen Xitang!

Ironically, the person she hated the most was now the one comforting her, repeatedly telling her that there was still hope.

Finally, Yue Hongling couldn’t hold it in any longer and cried out loud.

She cried heartbreakingly, feeling utterly devastated.

Shangguan Huanling scratched her head.

It’s alright, cry your heart out!

Women crying isn’t a crime.

Third Heaven.

Sun Ruowei’s eyes were red.

She simply couldn’t accept that her best friend was in such a state.

But the truth was right before her; the pain Yue Hongling suffered was absolutely despairing.

Bai Qiulan, oh Bai Qiulan, why did you end up like this?

Sun Ruowei felt immense sorrow.

This melon, she’d rather not eat!

But now she had already taken a bite…

This time, it could be said that the entire Nine Heavens were indulging in this incredibly sweet and delicious melon!

The love story between the Celestial Lord and the Empress.

Such a story was of such high caliber that even mortals writing novels wouldn’t dare to write it, let alone readers who wouldn’t touch it for fear of incurring some disastrous karma.

And yet now, the stories of the Celestial Lord and the Empress were freshly unfolding before their eyes.

Not just the Celestial Lord and the Empress, but also the Empress and the Empress.

Concepts like time travel and reincarnation were too distant for people of the Nine Heavens, even Great Emperors wouldn’t dare to dream about such things.

What sort of great power could facilitate such time travel?

Because of her fellow melon-lover, Sun Ruowei modified her path to the **Emotion Dao**, even she didn’t know how it happened. She simply found that as long as she was in a state of enjoying the melon, her cultivation speed would be astonishingly fast.

Her affinity for different energies between heaven and earth increased, so she named her path **Melon-Eating Dao**, and as for how far she could cultivate it, she’d just take it one step at a time.

Either way, her fellow melon-lover told her that the **Melon-Eating Dao** could go far because she was cultivating it.

For everyone else in the Nine Heavens, watching this grand drama was simply entertaining.

For Sun Ruowei, however, it was a grand opportunity; just moments ago, her power was growing uncontrollably.

She had only spent a little time in the Third Heaven, and now she had already reached the pinnacle of the Third Heaven.

So, the **Melon-Eating Dao** was seriously awesome!

“I want to ascend!”

Sun Ruowei clenched her fists.

Her ascension was certainly not to give Lu Ye trouble; that would be a joke—she’d need a million of herself to even be a match against Lu Ye.

No, she was going to find Yue Hongling.

Because she wasn’t just Bai Qiulan’s best friend, she was also Yue Hongling’s dearest master.

Now that Bai Qiulan had fallen, who was the most pitiable?

Obviously, it was Yue Hongling.

Yue Hongling might even do something foolish, so she had to take on the responsibility of being her master, even if it meant…even if it meant repaying Bai Qiulan’s debts, she had to take good care of Yue Hongling.

Thus, it was time to cross tribulation!

Lu Ye soared toward the void beyond.

The distance was genuinely vast; even though he was moving at breakneck speed, it still took him some time to reach the edge of the Fourth Heaven.

The Fifth Heaven would be even greater!

In the Fifth Heaven, even the strongest beings might take years to reach its edge—it was indeed immense.

Lu Ye arrived at the boundary of the Fourth Heaven, pondering Emperor Dao Hen’s character.

Hmm, it should be fine.

But I should be cautious.

A copy of Lu Ye was separated from his body.

It remained in the Fourth Heaven.

Lu Ye confidently stepped out of the Fourth Heaven!

As soon as he stepped out, the Devouring Dao Beast charged at him aggressively.

Lu Ye frowned but didn’t sense any danger, so he just stood there.

The Devouring Dao Beast slid and knelt before Lu Ye.

“Little beast greets the Celestial Lord!” The beast’s attitude was ridiculously respectful.

Lu Ye…was left speechless.

This Devouring Dao Beast could really stretch and bend—words failed him.

“Alright, enough with the theatrics.”

At that moment, Emperor Dao Hen straightened his clothes and approached Lu Ye.

“I greet the Master.”

This time, his attitude had changed.

“I greet the Great Emperor.”

“You don’t need to call me Great Emperor; just call me by my name, or call me Fellow Daoist.”

It was clear that Emperor Dao Hen had also witnessed the grand show and truly recognized Lu Ye!
