Lu Chengfeng looked up at the opposite Chang’e, only to see the moonlight like water, the jade osmanthus scenting the air, the surrounding courtyard in ruins, yet the corners were filled with small, dense flowers, the woman sitting in the bright light, each smile and frown, unforgettable.
In that instant, it was truly impossible to distinguish whether it was the fragrance of flowers or of the person.
He straightened his back, scrutinized the beauty in front of him, and said righteously, "I have an unconventional request, and I hope the fairy can fulfill it."
At this mont, even the form of address had changed imperceptibly.
"I am but a dying person, Young Master may speak freely."
Chang’e sat under the moonlight, her cold and beautiful face casting a trace of sorrow, as the wind blew, the scent of osmanthus behind her filled the air, the branches and leaves swayed, seemingly wanting to comfort this lonely and sorrowful woman.
Lu Chengfeng coughed awkwardly, then, with so trepidation, said, "Seeing the fairy today, I felt a surge of joy, admiration arose, and if the fairy does not mind, I wish to propose marriage."
Chang’e was completely frozen, her lips twitching slightly, utterly stunned, staring foolishly at the man opposite.
No, you won’t even spare the dead!
Lu Chengfeng felt his scalp tingle as she looked at him, yet he still forced a facade of calmness, "I know this is too abrupt, but if I don’t say it now, there may never be another chance in this lifeti."
As he spoke, he unexpectedly stepped forward on the moon, arriving directly in front of Chang’e, and was instantly enveloped by a seductive fragrance.
"Fairy."
Lu Chengfeng looked up, seeing the porcelain-like delicate skin of the woman opposite, the faintly revealed curves, recalling her relationship with Luo Suyi, feeling a bit parched.
"Stop talking, don’t say anymore..."
Chang’e’s voice was not loud, with a tone of both sha and annoyance, "You are truly clueless, my original intention was good, to give you an opportunity to see if you could break free from your shackles."
"But I didn’t expect you to be so... so... disrespectful!"
"It truly wastes my efforts."
She looked at Lu Chengfeng, whose face showed not a hint of sha, instead deliberately leaning forward, his eyes fixated on her exquisite collarbone, his voice grew softer as he spoke.
"If you have nothing else to discuss... then leave!"
"I can no longer keep you."
Lu Chengfeng reluctantly withdrew his gaze, the curves were clearly visible under the thin dress, carrying a light scent of osmanthus, sowhat intoxicating.
"Fairy, you hold the Celestial Emperor’s Inquiry Map, you should be fully aware of everything your Divine Thought Incarnation experienced within the map, right?"
"To so extent, you and I were already husband and wife, otherwise, you wouldn’t have deliberately t , gifting the Celestial Emperor’s Path Formation Map to , and revealing the truths of the Three Realms."
"The reason I want to marry you is partly because I’m moved by the fairy, also because I’m enchanted by your beauty, admiring and wanting to pursue you."
"But more importantly, this is a great secret concerning my ability to grow and rise."
"If the fairy grants this, perhaps I indeed have the hope to break the cycle of ti in the Celestial Emperor’s Path Formation Map, to truly live anew."
"A Divine Thought Incarnation of the fairy and I have been a husband-wife entity for nearly a thousand years in the Three Realms, already inseparable by now, you should have sensed so clues from the signs."
"Every word I say is true, I hope the fairy can fulfill this."
Chang’e’s eyes, as clear as water, stared at him for a long ti, suddenly she smiled, slightly mockingly said, "You told these things because I’m about to die, right?"
Lu Chengfeng was montarily stunned, just about to speak when Chang’e stepped out from the moonlight, extended a slender, jade-like finger, and placed it on his lips.
"No need to explain, we both know the truth."
"If it weren’t for this wisp of remnant thought about to dissipate, you probably would never have revealed your secret."
"Of course, you’re right to do so, after all, it’s necessary to be cautious of others, even with close ones, so things cannot be shared."
"But I don’t mind."
Chang’e looked at him and sighed gently, "To rise from insignificance to where you are now in the Realm, how could it be without opportunities, fortuities, or your own reliance."
"So although I discovered so of your secrets from the Celestial Emperor’s Path Formation Map, I had no intention to pry."
"Unexpectedly, you voluntarily revealed them."
"If I’m not mistaken, your opportunities and secrets must be related to won, and likely to those who’ve lost their husbands, right?"
As she spoke, her breath was fragrant as orchids, the two were close, Lu Chengfeng could even feel her long eyelashes blinking, stirring his mind.
Clearly just a wisp of remnant thought, yet it felt like a real body, clearly before one’s eyes, yet showed no traces of falsehood.
"However, are you really sure that marrying could provide you the power you seek?"
"After all, this is Chaos Celestial Abyss, an isolated prison, not the Celestial Court."
Listening to Chang’e’s pointed words, Lu Chengfeng couldn’t help but sigh, for Chang’e, able to oversee everything from the Celestial Emperor’s Path Formation Map.
His past actions naturally left traces.
"Heh heh, don’t worry, since you know I’m dying, no matter how many secrets I know about you, I won’t spread them."
