Chapter 1504: Chapter 1504: If There Is a Next Life, He Wishes to Be the Jade in Your Hand (Part 2)

Gu Qiaoqiao’s smile suddenly froze on her face, staring blankly at Gu Junbai, murmuring, "Where will it be then?"

Gu Junbai pondered for a moment, "Qiaoqiao, I’m not entirely sure of the specifics right now, but you can recall whether, during the time you returned, any of the stones you and Ah Ze handled together had any special traits."

Gu Qiaoqiao carefully reminisced, and for a moment, her mind was in chaos. She couldn’t help but ask, "Ancestor, how did you determine Roaring Tiger Forest wasn’t the right place?"

"That stone is indeed strange. Its material comes from the same place as the Mysterious Dragon Box. Even I don’t know the exact reason, but this stone has its own Spiritual Sense and cannot hold obsessions, so the soul cannot be within the Black Jade Stone."

Gu Junbai’s tone was very affirmative.

Gu Qiaoqiao felt extremely disappointed.

"Don’t be disappointed. Think carefully. There is always a special stone connected to you and him," Gu Junbai patiently reminded and comforted.

Gu Qiaoqiao gathered her spirits, focusing all her spiritual power. She first cleared her mind, then organized her thoughts, and carefully recalled every detail between her and Qin Yize.

Suddenly, Gu Qiaoqiao was startled, and the words "White Jade Stone" appeared in her mind.

White Jade Stone!

Gu Qiaoqiao hurriedly spoke, "Ah Ze once got a White Jade Stone, which now has fused with the Jade Pendant and Red Lotus Flower, inside the Mysterious Dragon Box."

"Is there anything special about it?"

Seeing Gu Junbai’s question, Gu Qiaoqiao couldn’t help but freeze for a moment. Could that trace of sadness and vitality in the White Jade Stone not be from the Gu Family Ancestor?

Could it be that all along, she had been mistaken?

"Ancestor, have you never stayed in the White Jade Stone inside the Mysterious Dragon Box?" Gu Qiaoqiao’s voice was ethereal, somewhat drifting.

Gu Junbai slightly furrowed his brow, carefully pondered for a bit, and then understood the crux, "Yes, I have not stayed in the White Jade Stone. Ever since altering destiny against the heavens, I have been waiting in this painting for my descendants to break the rules so I can get out."

So, that’s how it is.

The soul inside is really not from the ancestor.

At this moment, Gu Qiaoqiao became calm, her usual intelligence restored.

There is no doubt a soul exists within the White Jade Stone, yet the trace of sadness she perceives is not from the Gu Family Ancestor; then, is it from Qin Yize?

But is that really the case?

Considering the timeline doesn’t add up.

When the White Jade Stone was obtained, Qin Yize was perfectly fine.

A healthy person should have their soul safely within their body; how could it be inside a stone?

Gu Qiaoqiao was puzzled.

So she voiced her doubts.

Gu Junbai pondered for a moment and then cautiously said, "Qiaoqiao, perhaps there’s a possibility that at some point time folded, causing certain moments to be disrupted and this phenomenon to occur."

Gu Qiaoqiao seemed to understand a bit but worriedly asked, "Then is Ah Ze inside the White Jade Stone? But now there’s no more aura inside the White Jade Stone— I thought you had left..."

"Describe the specific situation of the White Jade Stone," Gu Junbai felt the crux of the matter might lie in the White Jade Stone, hence he needed to know what was truly going on with it.

"Alright..."

Moments later, Gu Junbai thoroughly understood the origins of the White Jade Stone.

This matter is indeed complex, yet it can be determined that Qin Yize’s soul was initially within the White Jade Stone.

However, due to time inversion, these unexplainable phenomena appeared.

Time inverted?

Gu Junbai then recalled something, sighed, and said, "Speaking of altering destiny against the heavens, there are some causes within it that even I cannot explain.

I remained in seclusion and one day felt uneasy, so I emerged from the mountains only to discover my Gu family descendants were all dead, particularly the lineage in Jinling City, having died one after another the same year your parents did.

I felt the heavens were unjust, having always maintained neutrality, adhered to my duties, never disrupting the world.

You are the only descendants of my direct brother. Though I have no children, I’ve always regarded you as my kin.

Yet, who could have foreseen your tragic demise, while the culprit enjoys prosperity— that’s unfair.

So I exhausted everything to alter destiny against the heavens, infusing my Spiritual Energy into one of you, and that person turned out to be you. Perhaps heaven finally opened its eyes, and gambling on one last hope, I found someone seemingly opening the gateway through time, thus this alteration of destiny succeeded, resulting in this life of yours."

Although Gu Junbai’s voice was calm, the emotions within were suppressed; he couldn’t see through it nor let it go, so he wandered the world, fortunate that his descendants didn’t disappoint him, achieving a new world through his painstaking effort. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

And at this moment, Gu Qiaoqiao’s tears again flowed down; perhaps she and the Gu Family Ancestor were the only ones knowing all of this in the world.

The bitterness among them is indescribable.

Seeing the tearful Gu Qiaoqiao, Gu Junbai took a silk handkerchief, handed it to her, and gently said, "It’s over. Your abilities are enough, and in this life, there will be no changes; as time passes, the previous life will become mist in time and eventually disappear entirely. So don’t be sad anymore. Ah Ze’s soul was once inside the White Jade Stone but because of these two lifetimes’ overlap, the sequential order changed..."

Gu Qiaoqiao’s tear-filled eyes were full of confusion, "Sequential order changed, what does that mean?"

Gu Junbai patiently explained, "The normal order should have been Ah Ze discovering the White Jade Stone, but the stone had no aura. After he had an accident, his past life’s obsession would return him to the stone."

At this, Gu Qiaoqiao understood, she realized, "Now I understand, I should return to the place where Ah Ze found the White Jade Stone, place it back where it was, and wait for Ah Ze’s soul to enter the stone. Then, I’ll carve the stone into a Jade Pendant and wear it, and Ah Ze will come back, right?"

"Hmm..." Gu Junbai looked at Gu Qiaoqiao with admiration. "Such a clever child, when Ah Ze’s wish is fulfilled, you will reunite."

Gu Qiaoqiao’s eyes still brimmed with tears, her expression extremely complex. She squatted down, gazing at the silent and unresponsive Qin Yize lying on the grass, tears falling drop by drop. She choked back a sob and said, "Ah Ze, is your obsession and wish really to become a jade stone, never separate from me, and protect me all my life?"
