Chapter 142: Could it be that you were counting on someone like you, who is just like a dead person?

What is the correct way to use 【Mie Changsheng】 anyway?

Gu Jiangming thought it over and over, and felt that his actual operations had no problems.

Isn't 【Mie Changsheng】 just a golden finger that allows one to perform a series of operations through 【Monali Ren Sheng】? Every time he performed a Reincarnation Simulation, Gu Jiangming actually did what he needed to do properly.

Regardless of his ideals or the principles he wanted to practice in his heart, Gu Jiangming's train of thought was still very sound.

At least in his view, he hadn't committed any errors, yet the price Gu Jiangming paid was high.

Moreover, one cannot purely blame Gu Jiangming for the social content and romantic relationships within 【Mie Changsheng】.

Just following the normal flow, sometimes it wasn't that Gu Jiangming intended to commit a "crime," but that they became a pair through sheer coincidence.

Once they became romantic partners, you couldn't just say "I don't want this kind of relationship" or "I don't want to affect the future," and then cut yourself off.

That isn't a question of whether one is a good man or not; that is purely a mental deficiency.

In fact, every Reincarnation Simulation of 【Mie Changsheng】 is like a transmigration, and every story in 【Mie Changsheng】 is similar to the plot of a great expert after they have transmigrated.

So how could Gu Jiangming not accomplish something great and be willing to be an unremarkable person?

You use 【Mie Changsheng】 to return to the past, only to end up wanting to be an ordinary person.

Are you insulting 【Mie Changsheng】, or are you humiliating yourself? Anyone with ambition could never choose to torture themselves in such a way.

Even if Gu Jiangming knew his influence was great and would change many subsequent plot points, he would never choose to forcibly balance the so-called situation through self-abuse.

When it's time to act, act; when it's time to strike, strike.

Most importantly, Gu Jiangming's logic is simple: since this happened in the 【Reincarnation Simulation】 and the target of that 【Reincarnation Simulation】 was already determined, he couldn't do something like abandoning his wife and children.

Because this is the story of Gu Jiangming and his romantic partner of this lifetime.

And this story should not stop with a full stop.

Especially since Gu Jiangming can feel the deep love Liu Moran has for him; this is not something that can be faked.

Fortunately, Long Xi is someone one can communicate with.

Gu Jiangming was truly afraid that Long Xi would ignore everything, disregard everything, and just want to use him to practice her synthesis formulas.

However, Gu Jiangming was also genuinely tricked by Long Xi, because Long Xi only brought him to the South Sea and did not send him back to his original place.

But the only good news at the moment is that Gu Jiangming, following the template memory of the 【Reincarnation Simulation】, has already reverse-engineered 【Hundred Refinements Become Immortal】.

And the final version of 【Hundred Refinements Become Immortal】 is 【Reversing the Ninth Layer Immortal】; this cultivation technique is equivalent to a technique that overdraws one's lifespan and potential.

Gu Jiangming, however, feels that 【Reversing the Ninth Layer Immortal】 still has a certain upper limit. Although it only has true effect when paired with 【Immortal and Indestructible】, this does not mean 【Reversing the Ninth Layer Immortal】 has no merits.

【You have set foot on the journey home from the South Sea, looking for the way back.】

On the other side at this moment.

Liu Moran's expression was grave; Gu Jiangming's disappearance made her anxious and even caused her to fall into self-doubt.

"So... what exactly is the situation now?" The Demon Seed revealed her form, appearing by Liu Moran's side in an illusory shape.

"How would I know?" Liu Moran said very angrily, "It was you who scared him away."

The Demon Seed's expression changed slightly; previously, Liu Moran's tone had been sweet, treating her like a little sweetheart.

Once Gu Jiangming ran off, her attitude changed immediately.

"How did I scare him away? You tell me?! Isn't it just that I'm more proactive than you, and more crazy than you? But wasn't I just wanting our son to be born sooner?" "Don't tell me you were counting on someone like you, who is just like a dead person?"

The Demon Seed is a Demon Seed after all; her evil nature is self-evident. Facing Liu Moran's almost accusatory tone, she wouldn't back down.

"I should be the one saying you were cold to my husband, which is why he ran off. If you had learned from me, would a man have been able to run away?"

Liu Moran was instantly enraged, "Non-nonsense! In what way am I colder than you? And is that what you call passion? That is clearly you being unable to stop yourself."

She tried her best, using the most powerful verbal attacks she could imagine to strike at the other party.

Yet, the Demon Seed's mental resilience was too strong; such words had no effect on her at all.

"Is it a mistake to be unable to stop oneself for the person one likes? Or is it that you didn't like being close to your husband from the very beginning?"

"Oh, so your love for Gu Jiangming was actually that perfunctory?"

"I love him more than you do."

Among women, the most taboo thing is comparison, especially comparing in such matters. When the relationship between two people is quite special, the consequences caused by such comparisons can only be terrifying.

"No, something must have happened to him; I have to go out and find him."

"However, you, Demon Seed, can forget about coming out for this period of time," Liu Moran said through gritted teeth.

The jealousy of a woman caused Liu Moran to directly lock the Demon Seed into the depths of her heart, forbidding her from coming out to bark about these annoying things again.

However, the words spoken by the Demon Seed made Liu Moran involuntarily wonder if she had truly been too cold to Gu Jiangming.

But that kind of thing... is inherently very shy. Only a product of demonic beast bloodlines like the Demon Seed would be so shameless and keen on such things.

I am a human... not a wild beast like the Demon Seed, so I am the one who is right.

Thinking of this, Liu Moran affirmed her own heart. She decided she still had to go out and look for Gu Jiangming; perhaps he had encountered some trouble.

【You have left Zhaiju Guyu and set out to search for traces of Gu Jiangming.】

And on the map interface of 【Mie Changsheng】.

Except for Wang Qinghe's icon, which remained motionless, the movement arrows of Jiu Jiu, Liu Moran, and Long Xi were all pointing in the direction of Gu Jiangming.

Although Long Xi had let Gu Jiangming go and allowed him to return just like that, she was worried about Gu Jiangming's safety and decided to follow him secretly along the way, just in case. Besides, if Gu Jiangming ran into trouble, she could also step in and show off her Charm.

If they encountered some fortuitous encounter, perhaps she would have some opportunity; after all, Long Xi remembered that one human female cultivator had gotten close to Gu Jiangming precisely because of such a fortuitous encounter.

And this is the reason why Long Xi was unwilling to send Gu Jiangming directly back.

If she sent him directly back, then how could she trigger the plot, and how could she trigger the story between her and Gu Jiangming? This couldn't be called a scheme, just her little bit of cunning.

After all, Long Xi's possessiveness is real and present here. If you let her obediently let the person go back without doing anything, how could she live up to her pride as a member of the Dragon Race?

But there were some even more base methods, though Long Xi's skin was relatively thin, and she hadn't reached that point yet.

And her pair of noble eyes were already secretly watching Gu Jiangming's constantly advancing footsteps.

Once she saw the right timing, Long Xi would make her move. In her heart, she similarly hoped that no one would come to disturb her little plan.
