Sword of the Nine Heavens, the Fall of the Gods

Thinking of the dream he had in the restaurant, Chengfeng felt a little unbelievable. After thinking for a while, he said:

"No matter what, I must go up the mountain to have a look tomorrow."

Bai Suzhen sighed: "It's really hard to find a brother-in-law who is so infatuated in the world. Don't worry, brother-in-law, I will do my best to help you when the time comes."

Chengfeng looked at the sky and smiled without comment.

'Sister, it's getting late. Let's meet tomorrow.'

'Where is your brother-in-law going? I'll take you there!'

There was concern in Bai Suzhen's words.

Chengfeng waved his hand: "No need, someone is waiting for you, don't worry about me."

Bai Suzhen glanced at the square face, then turned to Chengfeng and said:

"Since my brother-in-law is leaving, I won't stay here anymore. I'll go back right away and wait for you to come tomorrow."

Chengfeng waved his hand, turned away from the tree, and found an inn to stay in.

Lying on the bed in the inn, Chengfeng tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep the whole night.

After finally making it to dawn, I had a quick breakfast and headed towards the Laomu Palace.

When he arrived at the palace, the maid on duty told him that his mother was having dinner and asked him to wait in the living room.

Sitting in the living room, Chengfeng's mind was filled with thoughts, recalling every little detail of his time with Diao Chan, and his heart was filled with warmth and bitterness.

After about an incense stick's time, the Old Mother of Mount Li walked in.

Riding the wind to perform the ceremony.

The old mother sighed, and her words revealed a sense of disappointment and helplessness.

"Chengfeng! Chan'er has given up on you. She said she doesn't want to see you anymore. Go back."

Chengfeng's body trembled slightly, and all kinds of sorrow surged into his heart. After a moment of silence, he slowly raised his head.

"Mother, all the mistakes are my fault. Please let me see her!"

"Chengfeng! It's not that I don't want her to see me, it's that she doesn't want to see you. I've said a lot of good things for you, but the child has grown up and is disobedient, and there's nothing I can do about it."

There was a kind of half-true, half-false helplessness revealed in my mother's words.

"Mother! Please persuade her again and let her come out. I will explain the whole matter to her."

Chengfeng spoke sincerely and with a burning gaze, hoping only for a glimmer of hope.

"Ah! You are such a chore. I shouldn't have let Chan'er see you in the first place, and let all these things happen."

There was a trace of fatigue in the old mother's eyes, and she finally turned around and left tremblingly.

After a while, she came back trembling.

"Chengfeng, I have advised you and told you this. Chan'er still doesn't want to see you, so go away!"

After hearing these words, Chengfeng was so sad and angry that he turned around suddenly.

"Diao Chan, where are you? Come out here."

There was a fire of stubbornness burning in his eyes, and he took a step forward and was about to rush towards the harem of the Old Mother Palace.

"How dare you ride the wind! What do you want to do? Don't you even know where you are?"

His mother angrily blocked his way, her voice stern and unquestionable.

"I..." Chengfeng stopped and looked sad.

The old mother stared at him coldly, her voice as cold as ice.

"Chengfeng, the two of you are no longer destined to be together. Stop tangling with each other and get down the mountain quickly. If you continue to mess around, don't blame me for being heartless."

Facing the harsh rebuke from the Mother of Mount Li, Chengfeng felt powerless.

He lowered his head, feeling distraught, and feelings of grievance and failure instantly flooded his mind.

My heart feels like it's been cut by a sharp knife and I have no tears to cry.

All efforts were in vain, and Chengfeng let out a long sigh.

I have no face to stay here any longer and can only walk down the mountain with heavy steps.

Every step is taken according to your heart.

I don't know how I got down the mountain.

Just as I reached the foot of the mountain, I tripped over a protruding rock.

Chengfeng's body swayed twice and he was about to fall.

Suddenly, a figure rushed out from behind a big tree and supported his shaky body in time.

"Brother-in-law! Are you okay?"

Bai Suzhen supported Chengfeng, her eyes full of concern.

Chengfeng seemed not to hear her words and continued moving forward step by step.

Seeing this, Bai Suzhen shook her head gently, a trace of worry appeared on her pretty face, and she raised her voice.

"Brother-in-law, are you okay?"

Chengfeng seemed to be in another world, deaf to all the sounds from the outside world.

His eyes were empty and his steps were mechanical. Every step he took seemed like he was walking on the edge of an endless abyss, unable to find the way back.

Bai Suzhen did not give up and held Chengfeng's hand firmly.

"Brother-in-law, you can't go on like this. I know you're sad. But running away is not a solution. Be brave, okay?"

Feeling the warmth coming from his hand, Chengfeng's body trembled slightly, as if he had a reaction.

Slowly turning his head, his gaze gradually focused on Bai Suzhen's face.

His eyes, which once had clear black and white, now revealed endless fatigue and pain.

"Suzhen..."

Chengfeng's voice was hoarse and low, as if it was squeezed out from the depths of his throat.

"I...I don't know what to do. My heart is so confused and painful..."

Seeing Chengfeng's look, Bai Suzhen's heart tightened. She held Chengfeng's hand tightly and tried her best to comfort him.

"Brother-in-law, I know you are in pain. But please believe that time will slowly heal all the scars."

"Besides, Sister Diao Chan is not in the Old Mother Palace, so she can't hear your call at all."

"You...what did you say? Diao Chan...she's not here?"

Cheng Feng was shocked by this, and a strange look flashed in his eyes, "She's not in the Old Mother Palace? Then where is she?"

Bai Suzhen smoothed her messy hair on her forehead and said softly:

"Sister Diao Chan should be in Qishan City. My mother sent her to carry out a plan."

"She left early this morning. We should be able to find her in Qishan."

Upon hearing the news, Chengfeng was overjoyed. He quickly thanked Bai Suzhen and hurried to Qishan.

On the third day in Qishan City, Chengfeng spotted Diao Chan.
