Chapter 64: It's Just That I Feel We Should Be a Match Made in Heaven [Seeking First Subscription]

Ten thousand people have ten thousand types of personalities.

Jiu Jiu does not consider her own personality to be good; even though she now knows that in her past life she was a deity, do not forget, she is still a demon!

A genuine, authentic demon.

She does not kill people, nor does she harm people, but in many matters, her choices are things only a demon could do.

This is her innate demonic nature, an unconstrained, unconventional defiance.

If it were an enlightened cultivator, they might not necessarily be as stubborn and radical as Jiu Jiu.

And compared to the inexplicable hostility that Jiu Jiu has slowly gathered.

Gu Jiangming is truly restless and uneasy.

Why is this?

Why is the expression of Jiu Jiu on the screen so unkind?

Which heavenly law did I actually break, and by what virtue am I, the past-life Jiu Jiu, captured like this, and even tortured on the spot by the Black Tortoise?

Is she unhappy because of that matter with the South Sea Dragon Princess? What kind of situation is this? Gu Jiangming cannot understand the situation at all.

【"I'm asking you, what exactly is your relationship with the South Sea Dragon Princess?" Jiu Jiu said in an interrogating tone.】

No.

How can you have the tone and aura of a main wife questioning her husband?

How is this justified?

【Your body trembles slightly, triggering the effect of Innate Proud Bones.】

【"What relationship I have with her is not something you have the qualifications to ask about, Your Excellency?" you say coldly: "Besides, as a deity guarding this region, is it within the rules for you to capture me for no reason?"】

No!

Don't give me inexplicable pride where it shouldn't be?! Look at the situation, will you? The past-life Jiu Jiu clearly has no malice; if you continue with this attitude, the situation will truly become terrible! 【"You—" Jiu Jiu takes two steps back, seemingly a bit angry as she says: "She is very good to you?"】

Alright, stop provoking her.

I am begging you.

If you don't know how to speak, then don't open your mouth.

【"Looking at the cultivation technique he practices, it should be a rare Dragon Race technique." The Black Tortoise seems to be calculating something, "Jingwei, let me calculate this kid's Opportunity."】

Gu Jiangming really wants to kneel down.

My Innate Proud Bones self hasn't spoken, but this tactless Black Tortoise has chimed in; are you afraid that things aren't chaotic enough?

【"Yo, this is a connection spanning nine lifetimes, no wonder she is so good to you." The Black Tortoise's voice is full of teasing, "Hahahaha, I can already see the furious face of that old Dragon King; this kid's life is truly tenacious, I don't know how you survived."】

No.

You're really pushing it now, aren't you? Adding fuel to the fire like this?

Gu Jiangming's head is about to explode, and what is this strange thing about a connection spanning nine lifetimes? How do I not know that I have a nine-lifetime connection with the Dragon Princess? Am I her child-husband or something?! 【Hearing what the Black Tortoise said, Jiu Jiu tries hard to calm her mood, then throws a Storage Ring from her hand.】

【"What is this?" you cannot help but ask.】

【"However good she is to you, I will be just as good to you, but you must remember, here, you can only remember my kindness, you cannot think of her." Under Jiu Jiu's voice is an unquestionable attitude.】

【You tremble once more, and Innate Proud Bones triggers again.】

【"What do you take me for?" you throw the Storage Ring in your hand back to Jiu Jiu's hand, "A plaything for you deities?"】

【"Something you take to compete for favor and play with?"】

PROUD!!! BONES!!! INNATE!!! I, Gu Jiangming, will wash away this broken trait sooner or later!!! Get lost, you bastard! Can't you see what the situation is? It doesn't work when it should, and when it shouldn't, it works in reverse.

Except for being captured by Ye Liaocang at the start and relying on you to endure those difficult days and improve my willpower, you have never provided me with any positive effect.

Do you really want me dead?! 【"Splash—"】

【That Storage Ring belonging to Jiu Jiu is thrown into the sea.】

【"What are you doing? Are you sulking with me?" you say with a bad attitude.】

【"If you don't want it, I'll throw it away." Jiu Jiu's voice does not change in the slightest, "It is you who are sulking with me."】

【You grunt, not speaking.】

【You fall into an inexplicable silence, and Jiu Jiu flies down, sitting beside you to watch you.】

【"What exactly do you want to do? When will you let me go?" you cannot help but ask.】

【"I don't want to do anything, I just want to capture you, watch you every day, until you die in my hands." Jiu Jiu smiles.】

No, so you are this kind of Jiu Jiu?

You actually have a yandere personality? I didn't notice it at all before. Or is the personality different in every Reincarnation? This is bad, it seems I've entered a dead end in some kind of cycle; this won't drag on for four hundred years until my realm Opportunity takes effect, will it?

【"Forget it, I was just joking with you." Jiu Jiu is silent for a moment and says: "It's just that I feel we should be a match made in heaven."】

How can she be so good at talking?

Especially seeing Jiu Jiu in that Emperor Sparrow form, even Gu Jiangming cannot help but have his heart skip a few beats.

As expected of the wife I chose.

Naturally beautiful, even the makeup of her past life is so good-looking.

It is a pity, this time we are destined to have a connection but no fate.

Gu Jiangming thinks about it; in this Reincarnation, his romantic fate has already been confirmed as Wang Qinghe, and he even has offspring with Wang Qinghe.

To be honest, he cannot bring himself to betray his wife; this is Gu Jiangming's own wife through thick and thin, who has lived through hard times with him.

Let alone that he cannot bring himself to commit betrayal, Innate Proud Bones would not allow him to do so either.

【"I feel I am very familiar with you, and I trust you very much; by your side, I feel very at ease, I don't know if you have this feeling." Jiu Jiu says again: "So don't worry, I will not hurt you."】

【"I am just keeping you here for a while; if you are tired of it, I will send you away."】

【Listening to Jiu Jiu's words, you look at her, and some chaotic memories surface in your mind again.】

【She is actually not wrong at all.】

【You reflect that, objectively speaking, you are merely annoyed at being captured by her, but logically, you should be furious at Jiu Jiu's actions; yet, when you search your heart, you find you cannot bring yourself to hate her, and by her side, you feel a sense of stability from an unknown source, as if you could entrust your very back to her.】

【After much deliberation, you decide to stay here for a time to cultivate.】

【On the back of this Black Tortoise, you perceive some profound and mysterious Qimen Dunjia; comprehending these strange characters seems to help improve your mastery of formations.】

【You are currently comprehending the patterns on the Black Tortoise—】

Meanwhile, in another place.

Guided by his fine son Gu Shengxi, Wang Qinghe arrived at the completely destroyed Shangxi City.

Looking at the entire city, which had been leveled on the map, Wang Qinghe controlled her character to conduct an information search.

【You explored the ruined Shangxi City.】

【You found the Spirit Qi left behind by Gu Jiangming within Shangxi City.】

After escaping from the Zhenggang Sect, Wang Qinghe quickly found her foolish son, and subsequently went to visit the Dragon Princess of Jiangyang Fishing Village.

However, it seemed the Dragon Princess would only appear if Gu Jiangming came in person; Wang Qinghe tried several times, but could not trigger the conditions to meet her.

However, the good news was that Gu Shengxi had inherited Gu Jiangming's trait talent, and his cultivation progress was also quite fast.

And through her own desperate cultivation and hard work over these many years, she had finally broken through the threshold of the Enlightenment Stage.

Raising her three foolish sons and bringing their realms up as well—perhaps that would be the way to break the situation.

It must be said, my son has the bearing of a Great Emperor.

All things considered, aside from his brain not being as good as Gu Jiangming's, everything from the neck down is top-tier talent.

Given time, he will surely achieve great things.

At the very least, he will have no problem serving as a hired thug.

Wang Qinghe's train of thought was also very clear; she had basically determined that the one she needed to deal with was likely the Heavenly Dao, which was currently being widely rumored in the world's information.

The Heavenly Dao could wipe out the seven great sects in one fell swoop, but since the Zhenggang Sect was able to have many disciples escape, there should still be many survivors from other sects in the world today.

Her individual strength was far from enough, but the strength of a group might not necessarily be unable to shake the Heavenly Dao.

What Wang Qinghe needed to do was unite all who could be united; as someone from an official family, she knew deeply the importance of having allies.

【Thinking of your husband suffering in captivity, your mood is difficult to calm, which makes you suppress your impatience and continue to cultivate diligently.】

Wang Qinghe never would have imagined that before Gu Jiangming's accident, her character was incredibly lazy and loved to slack off, much like her own usual temperament.

After Gu Jiangming's accident, the whole person seemed to have sobered up, cultivating at every single moment.

And she, bearing constant drowsiness, continued to 【Mie Changsheng】 and seek it out.

Without seeing Gu Jiangming, she truly could not set her heart at ease in the slightest.

At the same time, the images in everyone's minds shook violently.

【The one who brings chaos to the world has emerged—】

A global message popped up on the screen.

It immediately drew Gu Jiangming's gaze toward it.
