Chapter 318: The Ex-Wife You Hate the Most

~6 min read 1,141 words

On the stone bridge, a ghostly wind swept past.

Beneath the bridge, the river of underworld water was pitch-black like ink, deathly still, without a single ripple stirred up.

There are no living people in the Underworld, and even the water lacks half a shred of vitality.

The two walked one after the other onto the stone bridge, their footsteps very slow, as if both were lost in thought.

"Once you go home, can you never return?"

"Where is your home? Can I go find you?"

Luo Zijun was the first to break the deathly silence in the air.

The Moon Palace Fairy lowered her head slightly and continued walking forward, crossing the stone bridge and passing the stone tablet, murmuring in a low voice: "It is very far... you cannot go there."

Inscribed on the stone tablet were two lines of scarlet characters: Ghost Realm of the Underworld, no living humans allowed.

As she spoke these words, she was on one side of the stone tablet, while he was on the other.

The two were separated by a few steps, yet between them stood the "Ghost Realm" stone tablet.

"No matter how far, there is an end. If you can go, I can naturally go too."

Luo Zijun crossed the stone tablet and caught up to her, turning his head to look at her, feeling exceptionally brave tonight: "I can go find you and tell your family that I want to marry you."

The Moon Palace Fairy stopped her steps, paused, and turned her head to look at him: "What if my family does not agree?"

Luo Zijun said: "I will try every possible means to make them agree."

The Moon Palace Fairy stared at him quietly for a moment and said: "If I remember correctly, you already have a wife at home, and furthermore, you have many lovers outside."

Luo Zijun was silent for a moment and said: "They are all different from you. Also, I have already divorced Bai Daxiaojie."

"But not because of me."

The Moon Palace Fairy said calmly.

Luo Zijun did not commit, reaching out to gently grasp her soft, slender, and cold little hand inside her sleeve, saying: "Some things were destined long ago and I cannot change them, but some things, I hope I can grasp for myself."

The Moon Palace Fairy was silent for a while, then gently withdrew her hand and said: "Perhaps what you are grasping is merely a dream."

She continued walking forward and arrived at the exit.

Luo Zijun came before her, staring at her cheeks, hazy in the fluorescent light, and said: "It does indeed seem like a dream; until now, I still do not know what you look like. But what of it? It is your soul that I like, and even if it is a dream, I am willing to keep grasping it."

Their gazes met; though they could not see each other's faces clearly, it was as if they had passed through the fluorescent light, entering each other's pupils and entering each other's bodies.

"Tell me, where is your home?"

Luo Zijun gripped her hand again, and this time, he gripped both her hands, even pressing his body against hers.

"Whoosh!"

A pillar of light appeared, and the two were enveloped within it.

Soon, the two returned to the ground.

The wind of the Human Realm blew in, carrying the thin mist of Bai Hua Hu and the fragrant scent of flowers from the garden.

On the horizon, the first light of dawn appeared.

From deathly stillness to vibrant vitality, it took only an instant.

"Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons."

The Moon Palace Fairy finally said it, but after speaking, she flew into the night sky, leaving behind another sentence: "I am a demon; there is no outcome between human and demon..."

The words still echoed in Luo Zijun's ears, while that snow-white figure flying into the night sky had already vanished into the full moon that was gradually disappearing in the night sky.

Luo Zijun stood in Baihuayuan, gazing at the empty night sky, dazed for a long time before murmuring: "Who says there is no outcome between human and demon? Xu Xian and the White Snake..."

He suddenly realized that he was Xu Xian, and Bai Daxiaojie was the White Snake.

The two indeed had no outcome...

However, the current Bai Daxiaojie is not a demon.

He let his thoughts run wild as he returned to his room, his soul returning to his body, lying on the bed and recalling every little detail with the Fairy.

"So the Fairy is a demon..."

"I am Xu Xian..."

He sat up abruptly, his expression shifting.

"I am Xu Xian, and the Fairy is a demon... Xu Xian and the White Snake were destined for a lifetime of marriage, but my marriage with Bai Daxiaojie is broken, and Bai Daxiaojie is a human in this life, not the White Snake... could it be..."

"Could it be that the Fairy is the White Snake destined for marriage with me?"

His expression changed incessantly, and he secretly regretted not asking the Fairy what kind of demon she was.

But just now, the Fairy had not given him any chance.

"Snake Skin!"

He suddenly thought of that piece of Snake Skin!

Thinking back carefully, when the Fairy first saw that Snake Skin, her reaction was very strange, and then she directly claimed his Snake Skin as her own...

The more he thought, the more he felt his guess was close to the truth!

The Fairy is the White Snake!

The Fairy is the White Snake destined for marriage with him in this life!

If the two had no destined fate, how could they have suddenly met, suddenly been together, and suddenly performed the acts of husband and wife... and how could they have suddenly fallen in love, and then, suddenly been forced to separate?

The process and twists of the entire event were so similar to the life of Xu Xian and the White Snake!

The only difference was that he had failed to make the Fairy pregnant with a little Xu Xian!

A soul cannot get pregnant, but a physical body can.

Could it be that the Fairy's departure this time was destined by heaven to lead him to find the Fairy's physical body, and then... make her pregnant?

Er... that's a bit of a letdown...

But he could already be certain that his fate with the Fairy was not yet over, and the other party was very likely the real White Snake.

Therefore, he must go and find her!

Supporting this conjecture is another very important point: whether he was bowing in marriage with Bai Daxiaojie or signing the Letter of Divorce to separate, his body did not undergo any changes, not even the slightest change.
