Chapter 1722: She Still Loved Him Wholeheartedly

The Firmament Stone used to utter weird and hurtful things to Di Fuyi whenever they met. In fact, Di Fuyi would have sealed its spiritual consciousness and let it continue to hibernate if nothing serious happened. However, regardless of what it said these few days, Di Fuyi quietly listened without arguing or interrupting as though he was punishing himself with it.

“My Lord, in fact, you deserve this. Since both of you escaped from the forbidden land, you shouldn’t have broken up with her. I knew the secret of you falling shouldn’t be revealed because all the karma would fall on her if it were to be leaked out. However, you could still spend a year with her and both of you would have had a very happy year.”

Di Fuyi remained silent. Indeed, he should have done this if he could be selfish. One year later, he could escape from heartbreak because he would know and feel nothing when he immortalizes. However, what about her? She would probably collapse when she finds out her beloved just passed away all of a sudden.

If a couple was meant to go through such a cruel experience of being apart forever, the one who passes away would be free, but the one who was alive would be suffering. Especially in this case when Gu Xijiu would live for a long time; the pain and grief would continue until the end of her life. He did not want her to experience such cruel pain; hence, he decided to carry out his plan.

Perhaps it was destiny, and there was nothing Di Fuyi could do about it.

“My Lord, I heard your inner voice. In fact, you did it for her good sake… I’m sure she will be very happy and forgive you if she knows it… Even until the moment before she died, the things she cared about the most is you even though you told her you did not love her and you took her as a replacement… She fought with Mo Zhao in that manner because she wanted to fulfill your wish as she did not want to see your hair turn white because of this matter… She always said that she hated you; in fact, she still couldn’t let you go and she still wanted to make your dream come true…”

Di Fuyi closed his eyes in disappointment. The Firmament Stone was right; she would not sacrifice for him if she really hated him. She sacrificed herself just to give away the body so that he could get Lan Jingke back.

If she could be slightly more selfish or hate him a little bit more, the ending might be different, but she still loved him wholeheartedly… His heart felt as though it was penetrated by a thread that was slowly pulled tighter and tighter. He held her little hand tightly as there was nothing else he could do.

Her little hand was freezing so he tried to warm it several times, but none of the attempts worked.

“Hey, My Lord! Are you going to just stay here forever? It’s chaos out there! You need to go out and calm them down…”

Di Fuyi’s eyes remained closed, what does it have to do with him? Even though there was a disaster outside, Gu Xijiu was gone; everything was meaningless to him regardless of whether the world was in peace or chaos.

There were only five more months to go; he would stay beside her for the coming five months because he did not want to be apart from her anymore. He would not let anyone disturb them until the day he immortalizes…

The Firmament Stone seemed to have read his mind. In a panicked state, it shouted, “My Lord! You can’t do this! The new Lord is dead, and if you just immortalize this way, the entire world would collapse, and everyone would die…”

The Firmament Stone immediately leaped into midair and continuously spun in the air with an image projected in the air.

Inside the image, volcanoes erupted, many meteorites fell from the sky with a lot of dust that covered the sky and the Sun. The day turned into a dark sky, and there was no sunrise. Most of the ground was covered by the sea water, and the victims who were trying to escape were not only flushed away by lava but also hit by the meteorites and drowned in the floods… It was a scene of the apocalypse…
