The resounding sound of a right hand meeting a fleshy left cheek was unmistakable. As it lingered with a reverb, the world stilled. As it traversed through the area like a visible wave, the air stiffened. The force carried within contained incredible strength and an even greater force of emotion. It brought along with it a long-festering, vengeful, despondent anger.

"..." Zhangjie Wushu.

"..." Hu Meifang.

"..." Liu Yinlan.

Not a single one of the trio of World Emperors expected to bear witness to this scene.

"..." Liu Suyin's slender body was trembling as her eyes stared intently at Wei Wuyin. Her dark pupils shook violently. Her lips quivered. Her nose scrunched tightly. Her entire facial expression was the picture-perfect representation of livid and indignant.

Wei Wuyin didn't need Eden's new ability nor his unique sense to comprehend emotional states to recognize her feelings. He hadn't moved from the trajectory of her slap because of it. However, he didn't stumble on his words or provide some unreasonable explanation.

No one could fully understand the level of grief and pain that this young woman felt after Wei Wuyin had barged into her life, his very presence shattering the stability of her mental restraints, and unleashing a flood of raw emotions built up over centuries of suppression, and then bringing her, for the first time in a long, long time, sensations of peace, pleasure, and passion.

No one could understand how she felt when he vanished that day, his life or death as uncertain as tomorrow, yet an impact as fresh as today. He left behind vague, unclear sentences. Then, he delved into the Time Vortex. For a year, she waited at the Time Vortex. She had even left the Endless Void Realm and sought answers from outside, visiting the Golden Gate Pavilion, but she received nothing.

For the rest of that entire year, she stared into the Time Vortex hoping for a miracle to arise. Her figure grew gaunt and weak and her mind teetered on the verge of collapse. The Spatial Vortex manifested soon after and the situation went awry.

However, when she arrived in the Ancient Sealed Region after the Endless Voyage Realm was devoured entirely, she learned that not only had Wei Wuyin lived, but he had lived well as he accumulated lovers, established an entire empire, and obtained a fiancée. He had peerless strength and unfathomable powers. He could've...

He just...

Why...

"You..."

She wanted to vehemently shout out all sorts of questions and grievances but her voice was caught in her throat as unshed tears suffused her eyes, threatening to spew out into the world and stain her beautiful face alongside the brilliance of Imperial Sky.

A burning rage surfaced once again as she raised her hand once more, wanting to vent out everything, and she didn't hold anything back as her entire cultivation was poured into her slap. The fluctuations were enough to stir the clouds and twist the earth. She swung forcefully!

If this slap met a mortal, their entire being would be eviscerated into nothing, their souls, allowing the heavens to properly claim their True Soul for reincarnation almost immediately.

"..." Zhangjie Wushu's eyes widened.

PAH!!

BOOOOOM!

Wei Wuyin's gaze never left Liu Suyin as a torrential storm of power and force swept the world, stirring the planet into a frenzy, and the slap met its mark. However, despite her strength, not even a red mark was left behind on Wei Wuyin's cheek. He didn't try to protect himself nor exert any unfathomable power, accepting it all, yet he was entirely unharmed.

Liu Suyin's knees grew weak as she felt her body lose a lot of strength. The only thing keeping her upright was the raw feelings that still hadn't been properly conveyed.

Wei Wuyin took two steps forward. His actions caused her to grit her teeth and release a close-mouthed scream. Within her gaze, the unspoken words rippled across the sky.

"Why did you leave me?!"

It was simple, and in the minds of the unaware, they would think that Liu Suyin was expecting too much. Their relationship, if viewed by outsiders, simply wasn't that deep. But from her perspective, it was the deepest she'd ever experienced, and shortly after feeling blissful happiness of having her emotions poured out entirely and being excited about the future, thinking of all sorts of possibilities, Wei Wuyin, without any reason decided to 'die' in an abyss of time.

But he hadn't. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝓌𝑒𝒷𝘯𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝑜𝓂

He hadn't!

He had left her alone for decades in despair while he went out gallivanting off building his own empire with numerous other women.

If he wanted to fake his death and leave the Void Voyage Sect, then he...he should have taken her!

HE SHOULD HAVE TAKEN HER!!

After all, she didn't have a future in the Endless Voyage Realm. She had long since lost the qualifications to achieve her dreams of becoming the Sect Master of the Void Voyage Sect and had no true goals besides cultivation. She didn't truly have a home. She was taken at a young age and felt like an outsider to the people of the Ancient Sealed Region and the Endless Voyage Realm, existing as an indifferent liaison without any roots.

Then, she felt heated passion, she felt thoroughly seen in her emotionless state, and she felt hopeful of the future.

All of that was given to her in one day...and ripped apart the very next.

HOW COULD ANYONE UNDERSTAND THAT FEELING?!

Wei Wuyin opened his arms and without a single word, held her, placing her into his embrace.

A soft wail of pain resounded. It was intermixed with grief, happiness, and rage. She tried to pull away, but Wei Wuyin was disgustingly strong. She could only settle in his warm embrace, forced to remember that day when their bodies were intertwined most intimately, and feeling every pounding of his living, beating, thunderously powerful heartbeat.

All dams placed in her soul were removed and tears fell violently. She wailed louder. Alongside each wail, a pulse of forceful power tried to pry Wei Wuyin away, but all her strength couldn't even move or loosen his grip. While her power pushed, her hands tightly gripped Wei Wuyin's robes as if refusing and reluctant to let go. The two actions were contradictory, but they were reflecting her mental state.

"..." All three women saw Liu Suyin break down in the most vulnerable way, her rawest emotions laid bare, and her truest of thoughts fully in view.

Wei Wuyin wasn't one to not admit his faults. While he couldn't have expected that the Endless Voyage Realm would be sealed off, that his messages wouldn't reach her, none of that mattered since he left so swiftly and selfishly, and despite knowing he was being observed the entire time now, he left Liu Suyin and then didn't follow-up after.

He had the power to appear, even in the sealed Endless Voyage Realm, and he had the power to bring her away. He knew of her circumstances.

He was wrong. There were no explanations or excuses.

Those two slaps were deserved.

"I'm sorry."

Sometimes, a simple apology can have the most profound effects. Liu Suyin's cries grew louder and her pulsing of power abated instantly. She buried her head in Wei Wuyin's chest and gripped his clothing with planet-crushing strength. Her tears fell endlessly. free(w)ebnov(e)l

They fell and fell.

Eventually, her soul and mind grew exhausted to an extreme, the familiar warmth encompassing her completely. She fell into a complete slumber.

Wei Wuyin held Liu Suyin gently. He didn't heave a sigh or form a smile.

"Tch." King's voice echoed in his mind.

"I know," Wei Wuyin softly replied. King's reminder was unnecessary. He turned toward Liu Yinlan, and then he looked at Sky Judgment Mountain. At the base, a woman had appeared.

Liu Yinlan had been so focused on Wei Wuyin and Liu Suyin, her own emotions a mess at the sight, that she hadn't noticed the aura that she had remembered intimately for twenty thousand years yet was unable to feel personally, aspiring great yearning and generating hatred toward a single so-called divine emperor. When Wei Wuyin's silver eyes met her gaze, she was taken aback, and subconsciously followed it by turning around.

"!" Her eyes widened uncontrollably to the point the sharpness almost smoothened out completely into a circle. "Sis-sister! SISTER!" It was almost as if she had temporarily forgotten her name as shouted out the identity of the person. Only after verifying what she saw did she scream out in jubilation:

"Liu Xiulan!!!"

The woman was middle-aged, slightly shorter than Liu Yinlan in stature, and had very similar features to Liu Yinlan. In fact, she could be easily mistaken for her mother given how youthful Liu Yinlan looked. One could see that the genetic dominance of the females of Liu Yinlan's lineage was extremely strong. Whether it was Liu Yinlan, Liu Suyin, or Liu Xiulan, they carried extremely similar facial features.

Liu Xiulan wore a simple blue robe that perfectly accentuated her blue hair yet despite her marks of aging and her slender physique, she carried an undeniable allure similar to an orchid, being as beautiful and precious as a flower. Her eyes were calm but the depths within that shone faintly were conflicted.

She had observed everything from beginning to end. Even when Liu Yinlan had first arrived and her desperate attempts to breach the restrictions that Wei Wuyin had established, superseding Tian Taizong's barrier.

However, instead of reuniting with her sister in glory, she faced Wei Wuyin and said in a serene tone that could placate violet apes and soothe the ears, and asked an unexpected question that took everyone aback: "Did you kill Tian Xiaolu?"

As she spoke, her fingers unnaturally bent slightly and her posture stiffened as if too tense at the prospect of receiving an unwanted answer.

Wei Wuyin met Liu Xiulan's gaze. The concern and fear within were evident.

"Tian Xiaolu?" Liu Yinlan was stunned. So was Hu Meifang and Zhangjie Wushu. Wasn't that the name of the Alchemist that tied with the legacy inheritor of the Myriad Transformations Alchemic Saint in the Myriad Transformations Academy?

"You don't sense her aura in the eighteen sealed region, but her life talisman is thriving. You must be confused. Perhaps you're curious that she's just like Xun Yicao? Long since dead?" Wei Wuyin wasn't surprised at all by the question. Instead, he stared into the sky.

"Since you're here, you must be curious too." His words caused all four women to look into the sky. A hazy figure appeared before them, and the figure was almost peerless in elegance, imperialistic grace, and beauty. She was the Number ONE Beauty of the Aeternal Sky Starfield-Tian Xiaocheng!

When she arrived, her complexion was pale despite the calmness of her bearing. She wore a unique cloak that shielded her aura entirely, but the moment Wei Wuyin looked her way, it simply stopped functioning. She was exposed!

Holding Liu Suyin in a bridal carry, her head rested on his chest, as his eyes were as inscrutable as the heavens and secrets of hell, he gestured with his eyes for Tian Xiaocheng to come down!

It was about time for him to seize the Endless Voir Mirror's weakness brought about by the scheming minds of the top-tier experts of this world!
