Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The three Celestial Emperors left. Father Niu made it big. Nobody knew the terms of their agreent. From the way that he so easily agreed to supply supper for an unlimited ti to Shen Ying in the future, it seed that he had earned a significant sum.
Lonemoon sent Lan Hua to the rear mountain to take care of the huge field of immortal herbs. His main task was to water the immortal herbs. Perhaps on account of their exceptional friendship in the Heavens beyond Heaven, Radish did not object to this even though it normally hated any sort of male company. The two of them worked in tandem – one watered the herbs while the other helped them to ripen. Under Lan Hua’s supervision, they managed to refine pills and dicine of various grades. The two of them ford the entire manufacturing line, allowing the rest of the sect to rest. As a result, the cultivation levels of all the disciples in the sect increased steadily.
Chu Xuan did not leave either. After handing in a huge sum of money for his food, he planned to stay on for a long ti. In the beginning, he followed closely behind Lan Hua each day, hoping to persuade him to go back to He Chuan so that Chu Xuan could repay his kindness. After a few days, however, his efforts still did not bear fruit. Everybody in the sect started looking at him in a strange manner. Every ti he arrived at the rear mountain, there would be a group of people gathered there, looking at him. From ti to ti, so people even encouraged him. At first, he felt weird about it. He spent a couple of immortal stones to get Lonemoon to explain to him the real aning of a”comrade 1 “. After that, he felt uncomfortable all over.
What freaking comrade! What exactly are you guys teaching the disciples in your sect! He loved ladies who were gentle and sweet – ladies, alright?!
To prove himself to be a man of steel, Chu Xuan felt that he desperately needed to do sothing. So he chose to do sothing that every straight man would do – he started chatting up the girls in the sect!
-_-|||
Each day, he tried to find out more and more about what went on in the hos of the ten Celestial Emperors. He was the one who told everyone about the story behind Bai Qiao and Xin Han’s abusive relationship. The story was a long one too. He had to start from the divine artefact of Yu Feng Immortal Abode.
Tens of thousands of years ago.
Even though she is Bai Ti’s daughter, Bai Qiao was rely a Stygian Immortal. Although Bai Ti has yet to be one of the Celestial Emperors- only being an immortal emperor of a country- the queue of people wanting to be her Dao Partner stretched from Bai Zhao to Feng Cang. Later on, the Divine Refining Clock made its appearance. There was chaos within Bai Zhao. Although Bai Ti managed to obtain the Divine Refining Clock and beco a Celestial Emperor, his daughter, Bai Qiao, was caught in the chaos. By accident, she fell into the lower realm.
It was at that ti that she t the cultivator from the lower realm, Xin Han. He rescued her from danger while she was in the lower realm, and she developed a crush on him. Later on, Bai Qiao followed Xin Han and ascended into the upper realm. Both of them had a period of romance. It was even said that they had plans to commit to each other as Dao Partners.
Bai Ti, however, was not willing to let his daughter marry an Earth Immortal who just ascended into immortality. Later on, for so reason, Xin Han began training in the Heartless Dao. His cultivation level shot through the roof and in just a few thousand years, he beca an Exalted Immortal.
Bai Ti no longer objected to their relationship, but sothing had gone very wrong. People who trained in the Heartless Dao would lose their emotions slowly. Xin Han beca extrely cold toward Bai Qiao. The young couple grew more and more distant. Later on, in order to achieve a breakthrough, Xin Han cut his own heart out.
Despite this, Bai Qiao stubbornly refused to give up. She tried her best to save Xin Han, whose life was hanging by a thread. She sacrificed all of her cultivation to heal his heart ridians. Later, Xin Han survived and beca a Celestial Emperor, but Bai Qiao was left as a second-grade demon fox.
“Ai, I guess you could say this was luck making a fool out of them. Because of what happened, Bai Qiao could not let Xin Han go. She wanted him to rember the relationship that they used to share. Yet, to this day, Xin Han remains unmoved by her. We can only say that... they have no fate.” This shook the entire immortal realm when they first heard about it. Chu Xuan let out a long sigh and scanned the group of hardworking girls, who had been eavesdropping while training. Very seriously, he said, “If it were , I would never break my woman’s heart like that.” Do you see that? My manly strength! I like girls!
Everyone was clearly taken aback. They finally understood why Bai Qiao was so stubborn. They were once in love after all. She was just holding on to a relationship that they once shared.
All except Shen Ying...
She continued to chew on her snacks loudly. Suddenly, she said, “Chicken, is this what they an by not having fate?”
Chu Xuan pursed his lips. Can you not call “Chicken”?
“Is this not a clear example of it? Xin Han trained in the Heartless Dao for Bai Qiao, yet the better he got, the less chance they had of being together.”
“So, according to your logic...” Shen Ying began lazily, “That Sothing Han was retarded?”
“Huh? Ah!” Chu Xuan stared blankly back at her. What did she an? Why did she say that?
“He knew that this thod was not going to work, but he continued anyway. Is that not retarded?” Was she supposed to call him smart? That wouldn’t make any sense, would it?
“Er...” I guess so...”But... this technique really can make soone’s cultivation level increase extrely quickly. The better soone gets in the Heartless Dao, the less emotions the would feel. Moreover, he was a man without a heart. Without a heart, he would not feel anything. It’s normal that he would no longer like Bai Qiao.”
“This has nothing to do with being... heartless?”
“Nothing to do with it?”
“Does it?”
“Er...” Were these things related or not? Say sothing accurate, please.
“Scientifically...” Shen Ying picked up the fruit from the table and chewed it before continuing, “At the end of the day, relationships develop between n and won because once they et sobody compatible, their bodies secrete large amounts of hormones like phenylethylamine, dopamine, norepinephrine, and the like. These hormones would make them feel happy, excited, and in love. This what people describe as falling in love. These hormones co from the brain – this has nothing to do with the heart!”
“...” Chu Xuan did not understand what Shen Ying just said, but it seed impressive.
“If your heart decides whether you love soone or not...” She scanned the crowd. “Have you thought about how the emotions of people with heart disease would be affected?”
“...”
That’s true. Nobody knew what to say in reply!
Σ(°△°|||)
“So the fact that he has no heart, and whether he is heartless or not, has nothing to do with whether he loves that little animal. They’re two separate matters.” Shen Ying patted the pastry on her palm and continued, “That ans that there’s sothing wrong with your logic. That Han-whatever did not stop loving the little animal because of the Heartless Dao. Instead, he trained in the Heartless Dao because he lost interest in her.”
There was complete silence...
Chu Xuan: “...” What did Exalted Goddess just say? Why did he not understand a word? And why did she sound like she was making complete sense?
(⊙_⊙)
All the disciples: “...” They did not understand, but everything Sect Master said was right.
╭(╯^╰)╮
Everybody present did not have any doubt left in their head. At the sa ti, they labelled the Celestial Emperor whom they had never t before.
“Bastard!”
Lonemoon, the only one who understood: “...” Suddenly, he felt that the male leads who were trained in the Heartless Dao in the novels were all retarded!
-_-|||
Eh? Wait!
This was clearly a training arena. Since when did everyone gather here to gossip?
Lonemoon’s expression darkened. He thought about whether he wanted to increase the fees for the “Chicken”, who was busy trying to woo girls.
Suddenly, the ground began to shake. The entire sect was trembling. A huge wave of immortal Qi charged toward the mountain, causing the array covering the mountain to break open.
“What’s going on?” Everyone stood still.
They did not have ti to see what happened before Roasted Chicken Gal ca running toward them. She grabbed Shen Ying’s arm and shouted anxiously.
“Little Ying, sothing has happened to Xuan Tong!”
