Love Above All Chapter 177

Ah Qing said, he doesn’t love her.

Even if she ruined his marriage, he would still marry someone else.

She couldn’t understand, where did it all go wrong?

Back then, why did he choose for her, sending her back to the Immortal Realm while he chose to reincarnate?

If he knew this would be the outcome, would he still choose this way?

She always thought that Ah Qing was the one who loved her most in this world.

No matter what happened, he only loved her.

But what was the result?

As he gained status and power, he drifted further away from her.

"Senior, my Ah Qing isn’t coming back." Lan Xi said sullenly, gazing into the distance but out of focus.

Mi Xi was puzzled: "Why do you say that?"

"He said, even if I destroyed his fate, he would still marry others, and he said he wouldn’t love me."

Mi Xi was silent for a moment after hearing this.

He looked at Lan Xi’s fair face, now lacking its usual brilliance.

In fact, he always knew she had sacrificed a lot for Shaoqing.

Perhaps, from the moment they met, she liked him.

And whether Shaoqing truly liked her remained unknown.

...

"Junior sister, blame me if you must!" Mi Xi said: "At that time, I found a way to save you. I thought to research it with him. If we could heal you and send you back to the Immortal Realm, it would be for the best. After all, you belong to the Immortal Realm. And Shaoqing, being human, couldn’t stay in the Demon Realm forever either."

Lan Xi turned to look at him, her eyes regaining some brightness but still cold.

"I promised I would heal you. A senior brother’s words must count!" Mi Xi recalled, "I intended to save you. But Shaoqing wouldn’t allow it. He said she was the one he liked. He didn’t want you to owe others a favor. So, he made a sacrifice."

"Does saying this now matter?" Lan Xi felt that no matter what was said, Ah Qing wouldn’t return.

...

Half a month later.

Nie Shu reported to the Goddess Palace, kneeling to Lan Xi, becoming Lan Xi’s disciple.

The next day, Rong Feng returned.

Lan Xi looked at Rong Feng, whom she hadn’t seen in years. He now wore a blue robe and boots, his appearance unchanged, yet he seemed much more mature and steady than before.

"Disciple greets Master." Rong Feng said excitedly as he respectfully greeted Lan Xi.

Lan Xi sat on the seat in the Goddess Palace and waved her hand, "Rise! It’s been over twenty thousand years, how have you been?"

Back then, when she turned into a demon, she let him leave on his own.

She didn’t expect he would still acknowledge her as his irresponsible master.

"Master! Disciple is well. These years, I have occupied Yaobi Mountain alone and established my own Sect. Disciple came this time, intending to take you on a trip for a few days, to properly show filial piety." Rong Feng explained.

Lan Xi took a deep breath, "It’s rare for you to have such heart. Over the years, Master hasn’t been able to do much for you, your filial devotion makes Master feel uneasy."

"Master is overstating. Back then, to save this disciple, you took a palm strike from the Demon Lord, and later, were also injured by the mortal world’s hostility. Disciple is endlessly grateful to Master." Rong Feng gestured, and then a few youths dressed in white carried trays into the Goddess Palace.

Lan Xi did not understand his intention.

Rong Feng continued: "These items were treasures, collected by your disciple traveling thousands of miles for you over the years. Though not very precious, they represent your disciple’s feelings."

Lan Xi stood up, walked to Rong Feng, and helped him up.

She looked at the items on the tray, mostly delicate and beautiful wine vessels and tea sets, showing his filial heart.

"Alright! Seeing you so sensible now, it wasn’t in vain for Master to bring you back." Lan Xi took this moment to introduce, "Her name is Nie Shu, my newly accepted disciple. Henceforth, she will be your junior sister."

Rong Feng looked at Nie Shu, smiled and greeted, "Hello, junior sister!"

"Senior brother!" Nie Shu also courteously responded.

Only then did Lan Xi turn to the two siblings: "Rong Feng, since you’re back, stay at the Goddess Palace for a while. Master hasn’t been able to teach you much Immortal Technique over the years, so with Nie Shu present too, Master will take the opportunity to guide you both."

"Yes, Master!" Rong Feng and Nie Shu respectfully replied.

Over the years, Lan Xi comprehended many Immortal Techniques and taught Rong Feng and Nie Shu several Combat Skills.

In her spare time, she personally forged a weapon for Nie Shu using Taiyin Mysterious Iron.

Although it wasn’t a Divine Artifact, it could rival the Xuanyuan Sword.

Lan Xi named Nie Shu’s new weapon the Purple Mist Sword.

Since she last parted ways with Quan Shaoqing from the Phoenix Clan.

They hadn’t seen each other for a whole year.

Lan Xi usually guided the two disciples in practice at the Goddess Palace.

Under Lan Xi’s guidance, Rong Feng and Nie Shu made significant progress.

The only thing that comforted Lan Xi was that although Nie Shu was promised to Quan Shaoqing, she didn’t really want to marry him.

This way, when dealing with Quan Shaoqing, she didn’t need to consider Nie Shu’s feelings.

Only, she never expected.

It was just a year.

The Imperial Authority Realm arranged another marriage for Quan Shaoqing, and his bride was the daughter of the Queen Mother of the West.

If Mi Xi hadn’t told her this, she would still be in the dark.

"Junior sister, what do you plan to do?" Mi Xi saw Lan Xi sitting there stunned, reluctant to hurt her but knowing she had to face it sooner or later.

Lan Xi remained silent for a long time before speaking in a hoarse voice, "What can I do? He is no longer my Ah Qing! He chooses to marry someone else, am I supposed to take in another disciple?"

Even if she took in another disciple, with so many girls in this world, she couldn’t possibly take them all in.

Mi Xi remained silent.

Though Lan Xi appeared calm, he knew she was truly heartbroken.

The two millennia of waiting resulted in him forgetting her and swearing never to marry her in this life.

Lan Xi suddenly stood up and quickly disappeared from the Goddess Palace.

Mi Xi didn’t even have a chance to stop her.

Without thinking, he knew where she had gone.

Imperial Authority Realm.

Lan Xi landed in the council chamber where Quan Shaoqing was handling official business.

She concealed herself, so she was invisible to others. Yet she could see the people inside the chamber.

Quan Shaoqing sat in the main seat, his looks unmatched, divine and graceful. His long robe made him appear like someone straight out of a painting.

Even reincarnated, he maintained that cold and aloof demeanor, keeping everyone at a distance just as before.

He bore an almost exact resemblance to Ah Qing.

They agreed that she would wait for him, so why did this have to be the outcome?

Lan Xi stood beside Quan Shaoqing until the meeting ended.

Once everyone had left the council chamber.

She appeared directly in front of Quan Shaoqing.

Quan Shaoqing was startled. After a year of not seeing her, he thought Lan Xi would never return.

Upon seeing her familiar figure, he politely clasped his hands.

"I didn’t know if Your Highness Lan Xi would suddenly appear, what brings you here?"

His distant and indifferent tone sent a chill through her heart.
