Chapter 577: The Heavy Sword Qi Great Wall, Gui Daoran’s Confusion
Sword Qi Great Wall.
“Senior Brother, do you find this thing impressive?”
Gui Qianjie held up an intricately carved and hollowed-out orb and showed it off to Gui Daoran.
Seeing this, Gui Daoran smiled and said, “You’ve been pestering Fellow Daoist Nangong again to buy things for you?”
“It’s just some small trinkets. He has plenty of wealth and wouldn’t mind spending a little.”
“Are you jealous, Senior Brother?”
Looking at Gui Qianjie’s mischievous expression, Gui Daoran pinched her nose and said.
“I have no reason to be jealous. If you could find your ideal husband, I would be the happiest person.”
Hearing this, Gui Qianjie pouted and said.
“I don’t want that. I only want you, Senior Brother. Even if he were the most handsome man in the world, I wouldn’t look at him.”
“When Master picked me up back then, he said I was your child bride.”
“In this life, the next, and the one after that, you won’t escape.”
After saying this, Gui Qianjie happily grabbed Gui Daoran’s arm.
Facing his little junior sister, Gui Daoran’s eyes were full of affection.
“Meeting you might really have been destined in a past life.”
“There’s something I need to warn you about. Try to avoid contact with Fellow Daoist Nangong as much as possible.”
“Why?”
Gui Qianjie raised her head in confusion and asked, “Isn’t Nangong Xing your friend?”
“I do share a deep bond with Fellow Daoist Nangong, but after twenty years of knowing him, I noticed he has changed.”
“Has he?”
“I haven’t felt any change.”
“I can’t quite pinpoint what has changed, but my intuition tells me we should stay away from him.”
Upon hearing this, Gui Qianjie spoke up.
“If Senior Brother says so, then I won’t take anything from him. If you dislike someone, I dislike them too.”
“By the way, Senior Brother, you’ve been looking at this scroll these past two days. Are you still thinking about that mysterious person?”
Facing Gui Qianjie’s inquiry, Gui Daoran lowered his head to look at the scroll in his hand and fell silent.
After a long while, Gui Daoran softly said, “Junior Sister, I’ve searched through ancient texts and finally found the origin of this scroll.”
“Do you know what this is?”
“No idea, could it be a treasure of the Immortal Sovereign level?”
“This item is called the Mountain River Brocade Map. You must have heard of it.”
“Mountain River Brocade Map?”
Gui Qianjie tilted her head in thought, trying to recall where she had heard this name before.
“Whoosh!”
“This is the Mountain River Brocade Map!”
Gui Qianjie suddenly stepped back several paces, her eyes filled with shock, trembling as she said.
“The Reincarnation War, the Supreme Saint’s direct disciple, Drunken Scholar, participated in it. At that time, he unleashed a magic treasure which instantly killed three Immortal Kings of the Eighth Rank.”
“After that, this magic treasure disappeared completely.”
“Is this really the Mountain River Brocade Map from twenty thousand years ago?”
Upon hearing this, Gui Daoran nodded and said, “Yes, this is the Mountain River Brocade Map.”
“Although I also find it hard to believe, it is indeed the legendary magic treasure.”
Upon receiving a definite answer, Gui Qianjie was speechless.
“No, why would that person give this magic treasure to you?”
“Such a thing, even for us two or even Golden Toad Academy, would not be allowed to possess it.”
“Perhaps because I had a dream.”
Gui Daoran put away the Mountain River Brocade Map and softly said, “Since I was young, I have been having a dream.”
“In the dream, I became another person, a drunken scholar who loved drinking.”
“In the dream, I clearly remember holding the Mountain River Brocade Map.”
“Though I don’t remember his name or appearance, I feel he is important to me, and I must listen to him.”
Warm Reminder: If you can’t find the book by searching the title, try searching the author’s name. Maybe the title has been changed!
Gui Daoran paused here, then looked up at Gui Qianjie.
“Junior Sister, do you think I might be a reincarnated soul?”
“Senior Brother, stop joking. How could you be…”
Gui Qianjie’s words stuck in her throat as she realized her senior brother was being very serious.
“Gulp!”
She swallowed hard, widened her eyes, and said.
“Senior Brother, could you be the reincarnation of Drunken Scholar?”
“You’re right, I am the reincarnation of Drunken Scholar.”
“After obtaining the Mountain River Brocade Map, I still had the same dreams, but this time, I saw clearer and knew more.”
“I remembered the appearance, the name of that person, and recalled some past events.”
After hearing this, Gui Qianjie stood there stunned, then jumped up happily.
“I knew my senior brother was the best.”
Seeing his junior sister’s happy demeanor, Gui Daoran was taken aback.
“Don’t you feel sad?”
“Why should I feel sad?”
“Because before reincarnating as Drunken Scholar, he had a dao companion. Now that Drunken Scholar has reincarnated, his dao companion will also reincarnate.”
“This means I might end up liking someone else in the future.”
Facing his junior sister’s comforting gesture, Gui Daoran was touched.
“I don’t know if I’ll like someone else in the future, but I know I currently like you.”
“Even if you really made vows in your previous life, they won’t count in this life.”
“Because I am Gui Daoran, Drunken Scholar is Drunken Scholar, and you are my senior brother, not anyone’s continuation.”
“Besides, Drunken Scholar’s dao companion is nowhere to be found. Meeting in a vast sea of people is harder than climbing to heaven.”
“Maybe I am Drunken Scholar’s dao companion, so we can just be together.”
Hearing his junior sister’s words, Gui Daoran’s lips curled into a smile.
“You’re right, I am myself, not anyone’s continuation.”
“Drunken Scholar’s dao companion can like Drunken Scholar, but I, Gui Daoran, only like my junior sister.”
“By the way, apart from this matter, there is another matter that worries me.”
“The person returned the Mountain River Brocade Map to me, which means he wants me to do something. I’m unsure whether I should go.”
“Go if you want, don’t go if you don’t.”
“As long as we are together, wherever and whatever we do, it doesn’t matter.”
Upon hearing this, the gloom in Gui Daoran’s eyes instantly dissipated.
“Junior Sister, you’re right. As long as you’re by my side, even traveling a thousand mountains and ten thousand rivers is enough.”
“Let’s go!”
“Where?”
“To eat sour pear jelly!”
“Great!”
…
Sword Qi Great Wall.
Looking at the magnificent Sword Qi Great Wall in the distance, the disheveled Jian Fei almost cried.
During these seven days, he had suffered unimaginable torture.
For the first couple of days, Chen Changsheng was relatively normal, merely sparring with everyone and verbally pushing them.
But in the following days, Chen Changsheng was simply inhumane.
He went to provoke the savages at their stronghold, and then a group of people came out to attack.
This guy rode off on a fine horse and disappeared, but he himself was relentlessly pursued and hunted down for five days and nights.
“Come and hit me!”
Chen Changsheng kept provoking the savage experts from atop his horse, while Xu Yao next to him jumped around, both seemingly inexhaustible in energy.
Watching such a scene, Ma Ling’er and Jian Fei exchanged glances.
It seemed they were saying, “Are they crazy?”
