Chapter 733: The Game (III)
Zhang Yuelu’s figure bobbed up and down in the lake, and at some point, dark underwater grass had sprouted beneath her feet, silently creeping toward her.
Within the Delusional Realm, Zhang Yuelu could not recall exactly what had happened beneath Wuxing Mountain. She only vaguely remembered that he had died and perished in the earth qi explosion.
But this man’s face grew clearer and more vivid.
That man dying under Wuxing Mountain was false, so it could not shake her obsession with becoming the Grand Master. However, that leap off the flying ship at the Kunlun Pass was real.
Zhang Yuelu glanced around. The once lively Zixiao Palace suddenly froze. Everyone gradually lost their color, leaving only a pale white, as if they were merely paper figures. Then everything around her blurred, like a moon’s reflection in disturbed water.
She murmured, “Mistake the false for truth, and truth is lost; from emptiness arises form, to emptiness it returns.”
Zhang Yuelu paused slightly, then shook her head and added, “What’s true will stand when all else fades; what’s false will fall, however long it stays.”
If she had not lived through such experiences, she truly might have been trapped within this Delusional Realm.
But come to think of it, this was indeed a flaw deliberately left by Xuanji.
Xuanji could have fully replaced Sage Cihang with a lively and charming Qi Xuansu, and perhaps even given Zhang Yuelu a child. That way, Zhang Yuelu would have been the happiest woman alive, with a successful career and a harmonious family. Even if she could eventually wake up, it would far exceed the 2-hour time limit.
Zhang Yuelu’s eyelashes trembled slightly.
