Chapter 488: The Girl's Inner Voice, Crossing Realms Together

~5 min read 985 words

Time slipped by unnoticed.

In front of the stream behind the mountain, the two sat resting.

The girl leaned lazily against Jiang Nan's shoulder, swinging her little legs.

She was a young girl too, with a young girl's youthful liveliness.

After so long, everyone had forgotten her age.

They only saw the demonic nature that could swallow heaven and devour earth, and one by one they really did call her a witch and a demon.

"Wife."

"Hmph." The girl bumped him with her head.

"Big Little Nannan."

"Speak." The girl said.

"I'm a little hurt." Jiang Nan said.

The girl rolled her eyes, wondering what trick he was about to play.

"Last time we got married, we were both immersed in a state of cultivation insight, sent into the bridal chamber, and you actually woke up right away — what was that supposed to mean?" Jiang Nan said.

"Didn't you wake up right away too?" The girl said. What was that supposed to mean.

"Ahem, did I?" Jiang Nan said with a smile.

"Once the inheritance was done, I was on guard too, so naturally I woke up." The girl said.

"This damned inheritance, couldn't it last a little longer?"

The girl's face reddened, and she bumped him with her head a few more times.

Can't you think of something proper?

"You married me, you're my person, this matter is pure, just like the love between Tan Lang Po Jun and Yaoguang Yaoguang Pojun — very pure, no joke." Jiang Nan said.

"Oh." The girl replied.

"What does 'oh' mean, does it count?" Jiang Nan said.

"Mm." The girl's pretty face flushed — anyway, she wasn't facing him, just leaning against him, looking elsewhere, he hadn't seen, right?

"I just knew it, always confessing to me, I know your heart, you're just thin-skinned." Jiang Nan said with a smile.

"You got it backwards." The girl rose.

"What got it backwards?"

"It's you who always confesses, and it's you who married me." The girl said coolly.

"Didn't you say it yourself — I'm brave and martial, you're talented, I'm yang and firm, you're yin and gentle, I dance with the sword, you sneak peeks…" The girl pressed her lips and smiled lightly.

"It's all the same, as long as you're my wife." Jiang Nan said.

"Big Little Nannan." The girl wrinkled her nose at the name.

This felt even more doting, and only he called her that — one of a kind.

"Haha…"

"Girl, the Blood Luo Crystal — you really do need to take it easy with it." Jiang Nan said.

"This thing carries rules of destruction and rules of power, can temper the divine body, and can also temper divine sense, but it also carries a lot of violent qi that makes one want to fall into demonic cultivation. Your Heaven-Swallowing Gong Fa already has plenty of baleful qi to begin with…" Jiang Nan said.

"Fusing with it is very painful too."

Last time he fused with even more of it, his body nearly collapsed.

But once the fusion succeeded, it really was powerful.

During these days of cultivation, the Girl's Realm advanced, and she fused with it again.

If she hadn't been together with him, the baleful qi would have run even wilder.

Jiang Nan fused with it again too — he had truly sublimated, and could fuse with much more now.

"I know." The girl said.

"Actually, we can do shared cultivation too — the Great Dao is natural, heaven and man cultivate together, yin and yang echo each other, harmonious and beautiful."

"Hmph hmph." The girl tossed her hair and rolled her eyes.

"Then let's cultivate." The girl gazed into the distance — he couldn't expect her to take the initiative every time.

"Oh, my mistake, I'll pay attention next time." Jiang Nan said with a smile.

He held the girl, lowered his head, and kissed her.

Cultivating together, the little fellow's days grew ever more harmonious, and cultivation sped up.

"I don't want to leave." Jiang Nan said.

"But we do have to leave eventually." The girl said softly.

"Then we'll talk about it when we leave, it's still early now."

"There's still a lot that hasn't been digested."

"When we go out this time, we'll give everyone a surprise." Jiang Nan said.

"Right, why hide and not leave — in time we'll suppress all the heavens, it'll all be our back garden, go anywhere we want to play." Jiang Nan said.

"Those old fellows wanted to kill you before, good thing I was there too — the grudge hasn't been settled yet."

The girl smiled, and together they sat on Shi Jie watching the sunset.

"This thing is also an evolution of the Grand Yin and Grand Yang methods, with array patterns deployed, and it borrows the Grand Yin and Grand Yang from outside too, but it's not that same one outside." Jiang Nan said.

"It's very pretty too." The girl said.

"It is." Jiang Nan said.

"Jiang Nan, do you think reincarnation exists?" The girl gazed at the sunset and said softly.

"Believe and it exists, disbelieve and it doesn't — Fomen seems to subscribe to this theory too." Jiang Nan said. "From some analyses before, Fomen should still believe that the Amitabha Great Emperor can return."

"Do Tan Lang Po Jun and the others have Such a World where they can meet again?" the girl asked.

It is the longing for a beautiful reincarnation within their legacy, to meet once more and continue their past bond.

"That is hard to say," Jiang Nan replied.

"Then let's take our time to say it," the girl smiled. "We have time; don't try to bluff."

"Different worlds have different rules; some worlds have reincarnation, while even some very ordinary worlds do," Jiang Nan said, "like the world over there with Nangong Pushi, where this one reincarnates and that one reincarnates."
