Gu Jianlin heard the violent pounding of his heart in his chest.
Like a drumbeat.
Except for the Vermilion Bird Clan, the stunning girl before him was probably the most fearso adversary of his life, the ultimate nightmare of the human world for millennia, and indisputably the pinnacle among the Ancient Supres.
Compared to the majority of the Ancient Supres slumbering in the real world, Candle Dragon Venerable was the ultimate terror because she truly had the ability to live in the real world, her shadow present throughout history, and she was like an imnsely powerful nuclear bomb capable of world destruction, God knows when she might be detonated.
Even though he, too, held the dignity of a Supre, he was reluctant to face such an opponent.
Since their first encounter, he had been avoiding her for a long ti.
If possible, he hoped to wait until he ascended to the Demigod Domain before eting this Supre again.
Unfortunately, there's no such thing as "if."
"Scared to death? Speechless?"
The chilling intent to kill swept over like a storm, accompanied by the girl's cold gaze!
Gu Jianlin heard her voice, his mind roaring with echoes.
Like every cell was screaming in terror, his trembling soul urged him to flee!
Candle Dragon Venerable would step in not because she was on his side.
But because compared to him, who was weak, the Vermilion Bird was more difficult to deal with.
Without eliminating the Vermilion Bird, the Reincarnation Nirvana World would remain the dominion of that one.
Even Candle Dragon Venerable would gain no favor.
"When swallowing the Dragon Bone, weren't you afraid at all?"
Candle Dragon Venerable lifted her beautiful eyes, a world-swaying smile tinged with a hint of coldness.
Gu Jianlin felt his scalp tingle, thinking that since he had already swallowed it, what more did she want? She couldn't retrieve it now!
Bang!
Candle Dragon Venerable suddenly raised her delicate, soft white hand and pressed it against his chest.
Gu Jianlin could feel she wasn't using much force, her gentle, boneless hand so delicate and warm, yet in his ears, the roaring sound of ti rewinding resounded, the world in front of him distorted and spun, past events rushing towards him.
It was as if he had fallen into a chasm of the past, a flood of mories rushing forth.
The rental house he lived in as a child, at five years old playing with his ga console on the bed. At the First Experintal Elentary School, wearing his school uniform with a backpack on his way to school. At the East Sea Road Civil Affairs Bureau, watching his parents part ways, he gazed blankly at the tide by the sea. And him writing vigorously in the exam room, a powerful kick on the soccer field.
Sweating profusely during night runs, solitary focus and emptiness while playing gas alone in the study, the happiest monts were shopping with that man and secretly learning to drive afterwards.
Then the car accident on the highway, his despair and struggle in the hospital, the life-and-death experiences after becoming an Ascender.
All the forgotten details erged, even including the trivialities of everyday life.
Seventeen years of life flowed out in the quiet passage of ti.
Reflected in the eyes of the girl.
Without a doubt, Candle Dragon Venerable intended to make a move on him.
But before doing so, she actually took the ti to spy on the boy's past without missing any details.
For a true Ancient Supre, the scale of ti was not as narrow as it was for humans.
Seventeen years of ti to them seed like leaves in the wind, fleeting in an instant.
Especially since Candle Dragon Venerable was not so ancient undead suddenly resurrected after a thousand-year slumber; she had truly lived in the human world, evident from her attire.
Barefaced, her breathtaking beauty needed no adornnt, her ink-black hair slightly curled, her dark red short dress blooming like a lily, her snow-white delicate legs so perfect, every line flowing smoothly and elegantly, as translucent white as jade porcelain, with even black leg rings wrapped around them.
Intricate and delicate earlobes adorned with dangling blood-red crystal stone earrings swaying in the wind.
Like a goddess stepping out of mythology, descended into the human realm.
Even with a touch of mortal existence, she beca more enchanting.
She silently observed the boy's past life, absorbed with interest.
In those enchanting, seductive eyes, there was even a faint trace of mockery.
For Gu Jianlin, it was an unprecedented humiliation because he couldn't even make a move, as if the ti and space he was in had been frozen, violated by the woman standing at the pinnacle of two realms before his eyes.
Yes, violation of privacy.
This was sothing he was very wary of.
Yet, unexpectedly, he couldn't feel any disgust or resistance.
Instead, he felt a sense of affinity towards this absolutely beautiful girl before him.
It was a feeling coming from deep within his bloodline.
This was no love at first sight, for no matter how beautiful she was, she was the most terrifying being in the world.
Gu Jianlin wasn't soone motivated by lust; he quickly found the root of the problem.
Dragon Bone!
Because he had swallowed the Dragon Bone of the old monster.
That was why he felt an inexplicable sense of closeness towards her.
Not just that, Candle Dragon Venerable's gaze towards him also held a subtle, indescribable aning.
Moreover, Candle Dragon Venerable had already seen through his background.
He was the second generation Qilin Venerable.
He was not the legendary Black Supre.
After Candle Dragon Venerable had seen through this, her attitude towards him even held a bit of curiosity.
Not like before, where her contempt was unconcealed.
Until, in his mories, Gu Jianlin uttered the words "good sister."
Candle Dragon Venerable lifted her chin, gazing at him even more mockingly.
This was bad.
Gu Jianlin knew what he would say next.
As he expected, when he uttered the words "old monster," her gaze grew terrifyingly cold.
Gu Jianlin was horrified.
He could feel it.
In that instant, Candle Dragon Venerable truly wanted to kill him.
In his heart, he roared madly, but he couldn't stop the torrent of mories from flooding forth.
"So that foolish blade Jiuyin is also in your hands."
Candle Dragon Venerable sneered, "Just how much do you like ?"
As soon as the words fell, she was slightly taken aback.
Because she heard the words spoken by the boy.
"I only love the Venerable."
Even though Candle Dragon Venerable knew it was a lie to deceive Jiuyin, she still fell silent.
Gu Jianlin noticed her gaze was fixed on him.
As if she wanted to devour him whole.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Candle Dragon Venerable gave him a deep look.
Gu Jianlin felt his mories were frozen, stuck in the car accident on Haiqing Highway.
Candle Dragon Venerable stared into his eyes for a long ti.
In those bewitchingly beautiful eyes was reflected the overwhelming image of the Vermilion Bird.
A mont later.
Her gaze actually showed a hint of seriousness.
Gu Jianlin vaguely guessed what caught this woman's attention; it must be the Vermilion Bird Venerate.
For a mont, he felt a slight loosening in the ti and space that confined him. So he didn't hesitate to awaken his dormant spirituality, his altered breathing resonating with the rhythm of the world, brilliant golden light illuminating!
——Heavenly Person Realm!
His right hand suddenly erupted with the shrill cries of a thousand birds, shooting out fierce electric light.
Within the domain of the Heavenly Person Realm, the All Heavens Divine Thunder turned into a brilliant gold, suddenly striking at her chest.
Surrendering without a fight was never his style.
Because the Reincarnation Nirvana World was about to collapse, and the Destiny Reflection before him could disappear at any mont.
Even expending her energy a fraction of a second earlier could an a chance at life!
Crack!
The Heavenly Person Realm indeed helped him break free from the shackles of ti and space.
Gu Jianlin leaned forward in a charge, golden eyes exposed as his hair fluttered, thrusting his fingers like a blade!
Boom!
Thunder roared.
Candle Dragon Venerable rely glanced at him indifferently, and the violently attacking lightning dissipated in her hand, even the domain of the Heavenly Person Realm vanished as if it had never appeared.
"You, little Qilin, are quite fierce."
Her red lips curled up, as if looking at a child with a fierce but harmless temper.
She didn't take him seriously at all.
Indeed, it wasn't even sarcasm.
It was amusent.
Just like an adult would never take a three-year-old's attack seriously.
An Ancient Supre wouldn't be wary of a seventeen-year-old boy.
Even if Gu Jianlin held a Supre's status.
"The Candle Light Law is indeed an ultimate weapon to us, but it depends on who wields it."
Candle Dragon Venerable raised her delicate hand, gently caressing the boy's cheek, speaking softly, "Didn't Taihua teach you how to use your Heavenly Person Realm? You've even managed to use the All Heavens Divine Thunder like this."
Her smile was mocking, she said wistfully, "I used to erase weaklings like you with a wave, but since you've been in touch with the Transcendent for less than a month, I'll tolerate your embarrassnt for now."
Gu Jianlin vaguely sensed the ti and space around him solidifying once more, cold sweat sliding down his back.
Her right hand gently caressed his face.
Yet he didn't find it enticing.
Because her deanor and actions resembled soone playing with an amusing toy.
At that mont, Candle Dragon Venerable lowered her head, leaning close to his face.
A breathtakingly beautiful face, so close.
They stared into each other's eyes.
Gu Jianlin had rarely been this close to a girl, only to find her enchanting eyes like blood, bewitchingly alluring, her vermilion lips so vividly delicate, her breath as intoxicating as Lan She, enticing and entrancing.
He could sense an overwhelmingly domineering ntal intention forcefully invading his mind.
A foreign consciousness expanded.
It fused with his own consciousness, indistinguishable from one another.
Fragnted mories of hundreds of thousands of years surged into his mind, as if to burst his world apart!
Almost simultaneously, the depths of Candle Dragon Venerable's pupils shimred with countless black spells, emanating an eerie, profound glow, as if converging into an ancient dragon soaring to the heavens, rging into the depths of the soul.
Spiritual Fusion Secret Technique!
The Ancient Supre had also reclaid the seeds planted two thousand years ago!
Gu Jianlin's usefulness had been exhausted.
"Should I devour you, or keep you?"
Candle Dragon Venerable seed to have made a quick decision, her eyes playful.
Gu Jianlin's mind was a chaotic darkness, he could only watch as her hands reached for his cheeks, blood-red nails glinting coldly, just like their first encounter in the depths of the Qilin Immortal Palace!
"Since you like
so much, why not co back to Buzhou Mountain with ."
Candle Dragon Venerable smiled, raising her enchanting, srizing slitted eyes, her voice carrying an undeniable authority, "I'll be sleeping for the next three thousand years, you protect your good sister."
Three thousand years!
Gu Jianlin felt a chill all over, which, to him, was tantamount to death.
He wanted to struggle, yet it was all in vain.
In the face of such an insurmountable gap, as Fourth Rank, he had no room for refusal at all.
Candle Dragon Venerable's hands drew closer.
Being touched by such perfect hands should have been an extrely enjoyable thing.
But now it had beco his greatest nightmare.
Yet in an instant.
Slap!
Soone knocked those hands away.
A towering killing intent filled the world, and Candle Dragon Venerable's ink-black long hair fluttered.
In her enchanting, srizing, slitted eyes, surfaced a chilling killing intent, along with unconcealed loathing!
Because soone stood before him.
That person was shrouded in black mist, yet wore a crazed, sinister smile.
Qilin Venerable!
