Chapter 339: Sudden Leap Forward

You are her entire world.

Because you exist, the fantasy world in her heart exists, and everything is supported by you.

She has been waiting for you.

Just as during the days when you could not enter Lin Fu, you risked everything to come here.

"How could... be like this?"

You trust your feelings cannot be wrong, but a new problem now stands before you.

What exactly is the girl's identity?

What secret is also hidden within you?

What is the fate between you?

All the mysteries cannot be solved, because she still lives in a fantasy, yet you cannot say that everything about her is a fantasy.

Perhaps the world you inhabit is your own fantasy?

There is only one thing you can be certain of: you will be each other's sole reality.

Your tangled thoughts are quickly devoured by the girl's fiery passion; you cast aside all distractions and go with her to the heavens and Ren Jian.

One night, sleepless.

After countless bouts of madness, she falls into a deep sleep beside you.

You look at the messy room, and your thoughts gradually return to reason.

You gently cover her with a quilt, leave the room, leave the courtyard, and step outside the mansion.

Outside, it remains a gray, dim‑shadow Shi Jie.

Not far away, Bai Li Ming sits there, looking at you curiously.

"You have returned."

Bai Li Ming asks you, "Have you witnessed the sights inside Lin Fu?"

You nod lightly, "I have witnessed."

Bai Li Ming asks again, "How does it feel?"

"Feeling…"

You recall last night's madness and say blankly, "Very pleasant?"

A pure Deity heart never lies unless absolutely necessary.

"Very pleasant?"

Bai Li Ming's gaze becomes oddly strange, "What did you experience last night?"

You say seriously, "Some things need not be detailed."

Bai Li Ming can no longer hold back, "Inside Lin Fu, there really are people? Did you see Lin Fu's master?"

You pause.

To be honest, perhaps you are the master of Lin Fu.

"The situation is somewhat complicated."

Your mind is chaotic, "There is indeed a person inside Lin Fu, a girl, but she is very strange."

"Of course, perhaps the strange one could be me as well."

For the stability of the Jing Tu world, you roughly recount what happened in the courtyard.

You merely omitted countless tiny details.

Bai Li Ming is extremely surprised, his complexion quickly turns solemn, "The sole life of the dim‑shadow Shi Jie has appeared!"

"Too incredible!"

"Perhaps this is a turning point for the Jing Tu world, or perhaps a disaster."

Bai Li Ming asks, "Can you bring that girl out?"

You retort, "Will you harm her?"

"Never!"

Bai Li Ming assures.

Bai Li Ming says he won't, but you cannot guarantee everyone won't.

You make a request, "If all the guardians guarantee not to harm her, I can try to bring her out."

"Alright!"

Bai Li Ming nods heavily, "I will contact the other guardians now."

You, thoughtful, "Then I'll return to Lin Fu first, to see the situation?"

"Alright," Bai Li Ming nods, "Hold steady; I will contact you again."

Having said that, you return to Lin Fu.

Inside and outside Lin Fu are two worlds.

You are amazed to find that the Jing Tu world spiritual power within you has not only not been depleted but has been replenished.

What surprises you more is that your realm has advanced again.

In a short time, you have entered the pinnacle of the First Realm of Ascending Immortal.

Only a few days have passed since your breakthrough; such cultivation speed is too rapid to be described as innate talent.

"Related to Lü Ya?"

You recall last night's pleasure, and when you merged with that girl, you felt an unprecedented delight, and the soul was liberated.

Only this fact can explain your sudden breakthrough.

There must be a deeply hidden secret between you and her.

"Eh, young master, you're back."

You push open the courtyard gate; Lü Ya is already awake, hanging out last night's old clothes and sheets, her little face flushed pink.

You casually reply, "I went outside for a walk."

Lü Ya asks again, "Young master, are you hungry? I've simmered some soup for you."

"Let's eat together."

You help Lü Ya hang the clothes on the bamboo pole; she goes to the kitchen, carries a pot of fragrant soup, and serves you a bowl.

She carefully blows it cool for you.

Lü Ya hands you, "Young master, this is Ten-Complete Nourishing Soup; it restores everything. I'll feed you."

You wave your hand, "I'll do it myself."

Lü Ya steps forward, smiling, "I am your Attendant Maid; these are my duties."

"Then you should listen to me."

You say seriously, "Sit down, let's eat properly, just like family and friends."

"Alright."

Lü Ya sits obediently; you can feel a small secret joy in her heart.

Soon, the pot of soup is finished between you.

You recall something and ask, "Lü Ya, have you ever left Lin Fu? Have you seen the outside Shi Jie?"

"No."

Lü Ya shakes her head, "To me, Lin Fu is already huge. Living here makes me happy; the miss treats me well, and you're back too."

"Lin Fu is everything to me; I don't like the outside either."

"I've heard the people in the manor say the outside Shi Jie is terrifying, full of scheming and vicious demons and wicked men; I don't want to go out any more."

You fall into contemplation.

What would happen if Lü Ya left this mansion?

Would her inner fantasies be shattered after encountering the outside Shi Jie?

You want to take her away, yet you're conflicted, fearing it would hurt her.

"Young master, do you want me to accompany you outside Lin Fu for a walk? If it's with you, I'm not afraid."

Lü Ya's eyes blaze, even a bit yearning.

You decide to give it a try.

"Then let's go."

"Alright."

Lü Ya hops and skips beside you, bright and lively; just looking at her lifts your spirits.

You open the Lin Fu gate, and the ruined dim shadow Shi Jie comes into view.

The steps before Lin Fu are like a dividing line between two worlds.

You look at the girl beside you, "Lü Ya, did you see that?"

"Young master, what are you talking about?"

Lü Ya's gaze is full of confusion.

Seeing this, you exhale, realizing Lü Ya's imagined world isn't limited to Lin Fu; it also exists beyond it.

"Nothing, let's go."
