Chapter 1630
Dressed in white, Shangguan Xiaoxiao stood on the ethereal clouds, looking like a fairy. Her black hair cascaded down, and her bright eyes were as radiant as ever!
In an instant, countless memories flooded Li Lan's mind.
Shangguan Xiaoxiao can be said to be the person who has been with him the longest.
Back when he had just crossed over to the underworld and was still in the Great Li Dynasty, Shangguan Xiaoxiao had already been intimate with him.
He once gifted her five thousand years of Chinese poetry and prose from ancient times to the present.
Later in the underworld, the two fought side by side. Li Lan even once, in a fit of rage for his beloved, snatched her away from the hands of a foreign race in the underworld.
Later, the underworld withered, and Li Lan traversed the realms of all living beings, parting ways with Shangguan Xiaoxiao.
Until Shangguan Xiaoxiao reappeared in the Samsara Palace in the Yang Realm, she guided Li Lan and pushed the Void Heaven Realm to become real.
It was then that Li Lan learned about Shangguan Xiaoxiao's background.
In her previous life, she was a pure lotus in the Heavenly Emperor's Pool.
In this life, she is Shangguan Xiaoxiao, bright and natural, poised and generous. She never bothers to hide her feelings; love is love and hate is hate. She is always independent and never depends on anyone.
Even with Li Lan, she sought to walk side by side, never relying on him.
Now, they meet again, and she saves Li Lan once more.
"You've lost some weight compared to before."
Li Lan looked at her and said softly.
Shangguan Xiaoxiao has indeed lost some weight.
"In this other shore, the struggle is like fire, and the torment is like boiling water; how can one not grow thin?"
She smiled and said, "But now that you're here, I won't have to worry about you so much anymore."
As she spoke, she bowed to the old man and said, "Thank you for your trouble, Mr. Qi. Has the Chuyuan Clan discovered anything unusual?"
Mr. Qi smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, my cloak is still tainted with a lot of strange energy, and the information is accurate. Chu Dao's cultivation level is still low, so I don't think he can see any flaws."
"Okay, thank you!"
Shangguan Xiaoxiao thanked him and then said to Li Lan, "Come with me."
……
Soon after.
Li Lan and Shangguan Xiaoxiao stepped into a grassy field, surrounded by the fragrance of flowers, fluttering butterflies, and flowing spring water. Everything before them was incredibly beautiful.
Li Lan couldn't help but sigh softly, saying with longing, "No wonder people yearn for the other shore so much. Cultivating in such a precious and pure land, one can truly be free from all worries and transcend all obstacles."
"Unfortunately, the other shore ultimately remains empty."
But Shangguan Xiaoxiao shook her head and said, "Now, in the entire Other Shore World, there are only three or five scattered pure lands left."
Li Lan asked gravely, "What exactly happened?"
That place must have had a glorious past, where countless powerful creatures once lived, and it must have truly been an eternal paradise. But why has it become so desolate now?
"do not know."
Shangguan Xiaoxiao shook her head and said, "I've only heard a few legends."
"Some say that in ancient times, several of the most powerful beings from the otherworld sought to trace the origins of the otherworld. They explored the plateaus of the otherworld, where they unearthed some astonishing things. However, they also awakened an unspeakable being, and thus, the entire otherworld was corrupted..."
"The powerful forces turned into a ghostly land, and the supreme strongmen transformed into indescribable creatures. Some forces that had not yet been corrupted resisted with all their might, and the Great War of the Other Shore broke out. However, they were ultimately defeated by the things on the plateau, and thus, the Other Shore fell."
"Some say that the entire existence of the Other Shore is nothing but a dream. When the dream goes smoothly, it is an eternal paradise. But when the dream deteriorates, all living beings will face the nightmare of doomsday..."
"Some experts also believe that it's because a supreme expert has taken an unthinkable step forward. Reaching eternity is the ultimate goal, but wanting to go any further will inevitably attract misfortune..."
"There are even rumors that the other shore was originally free of evil, but the malice in people's hearts tainted the other shore, causing the flowers of evil to bloom in this pure land. When the flowers of evil bloom, even gods will fall and sages will go mad... In fact, during the ancient war, something called the flower of evil did bloom and killed some extremely ancient giants."
