Chapter 1326: Night View

~7 min read 1,276 words

"The night view here is so beautiful. I don't know how long it has been since I last saw the night view," Liu Ruxi murmured.

"Then let's look at it often from now on," Chen Yu said.

"Okay, will you accompany me?" Liu Ruxi asked.

"Fine, I will accompany you," Chen Yu nodded.

"When I say accompany, I don't mean just for a day or two," Liu Ruxi huffed.

"Then for how long?" Chen Yu was slightly stunned, failing to catch the subtext of her words.

"A lifetime, is that okay?" Liu Ruxi turned her head to ask Chen Yu.

"A lifetime?" Chen Yu was startled... then he gave a wry smile: "Isn't that a bit too long?"

"Actually, a lifetime isn't long," Liu Ruxi said softly: "Sometimes, holding someone's hand, it passes by very quickly."

"Why have you suddenly become so sentimental?" Chen Yu looked at Liu Ruxi, puzzled.

"You... are you really not understanding, or are you pretending not to?" Liu Ruxi was a little angry.

She, who had always been cold and indifferent toward boys, was now talking about a lifetime with this guy, yet he was actually playing dumb.

"Uh..." Chen Yu was caught between laughter and tears. Was his charm really that great?

"Let's go back. You really are a dense man, ruining the mood," Liu Ruxi glared at Chen Yu and turned to leave.

"Alright, alright, I'll go back with you," Chen Yu nodded helplessly. Women, they are just like this; they were fine just a moment ago, and then they get angry the moment they turn their heads.

As the two walked, they suddenly felt that something ahead was not right.

This road was no longer the road they had come on, and the surrounding path began to slowly grow wider, only there were large patches of vibrant flowers blooming on both sides of the road.

"Chen Yu, where is this?" Liu Ruxi looked at everything before her in confusion, somewhat at a loss.

"Dream Weaver?" Chen Yu understood in an instant. He looked at everything around him and could not help but be struck with horror.

"What's wrong, Chen Yu? Does 'Dream Weaver' refer to...?" Liu Ruxi was startled, not quite understanding what Chen Yu meant.

"Do you remember the Talisman I gave you last time?" Chen Yu stared at everything around them and said in a deep voice: "That was given to you to guard against Dream Weavers."

"Such heaven-defying existences can appear in your dreams without you noticing, and your dreams will become reality. Everything you encounter in the dream, including injuries, will truly hurt you," Chen Yu said.

"And they can take you anywhere. We must have encountered a Dream Weaver now. I don't know where exactly he has taken us." Staring at the surroundings, Chen Yu's expression became increasingly grim.

"Then what should we do?" Looking at the gloomy environment around them, Liu Ruxi could not help but start to panic.

They were currently walking forward along a path, and on both sides of the road were large patches of vibrant flowers.

Besides this, there were countless translucent figures around them. These figures were walking forward in a mechanical, wooden manner, as if something ahead was pulling them along.

"I understand now, this is the Yellow Springs road," Chen Yu was shocked: "The Underworld?"

"What kind of place is the Underworld?" Liu Ruxi looked at everything before her with uncertainty. She vaguely felt that this name was not right, but she could not quite put her finger on where it was wrong.

"It's the place where people go after they die, the netherworld," Chen Yu grabbed Liu Ruxi: "Do not keep walking forward."

"Are we... walking toward the place of Reincarnation?" Liu Ruxi suddenly understood, her pretty face turning deathly pale in an instant.

The legendary road of Reincarnation was the Yellow Springs road. Had they stepped onto this road?

"Don't panic." Chen Yu's brows were tightly locked. He grabbed with his right hand, and Lichen already appeared in his hand. He watched the surroundings vigilantly, intending to find a way to break it.

The terrifying thing about a Dream Weaver is that he can weave a dream, and this dream is equivalent to his own world. When you are trapped in this dream and unable to extricate yourself, you will never be able to walk out of this dreamscape.

The problem Chen Yu was facing now was exactly this, because the Dream Weaver's Nightmare was too powerful. Even with a Divine Sense as strong as Chen Yu's, it was difficult to walk out of this dreamscape for a moment, which left him in a dilemma.

Although Chen Yu had relied on his powerful conviction to forcibly break through when he fought the Dream Weaver last time, the Dream Weaver this time was clearly much stronger than the last.

Since this guy entered the world, his power had been growing stronger bit by bit. Chen Yu stared at everything before him, not daring to relax in the slightest.

"Hehe, Chen Yu, didn't expect it, did you? That I would make a comeback," the Dream Weaver's voice sounded again.

"What do you want?" Chen Yu said coldly.

"I have already stated my goal, so I won't repeat it this time," the Dream Weaver chuckled: "I think you know better than I do what I want."

"If your goal is still the same as last time, then I can only say I'm sorry," Chen Yu sneered: "Your ideas will never be put into reality."

"Chen Yu, you must know that you are currently trapped in my dreamscape," the Dream Weaver said slowly: "I have woven a dream for you, and this dream is the road leading to the Yellow Springs."

"You have no way to transcend out of this from within. There is only half an hour. If you cannot walk out, you will truly enter the Underworld along with these people, and by then, you will never be able to walk out again."

"Hehe, is that so?" Chen Yu sneered: "Aren't you being a bit too confident?"

"This is not confidence, this is fact," the Dream Weaver laughed: "I think you know better than I do what kind of existence I am."

"No need to repeat your identity, I know what your identity is," Chen Yu said calmly: "But since I was able to hurt you last time, this time will be no exception."

"Blind confidence is actually just a form of arrogance," the Dream Weaver laughed: "I can assert that you will never be able to walk out of this dreamscape."

"Then we can try," Chen Yu smiled, and the Lichen in his hand emitted a red glow.

"Actually, there is no need for us to make things so tense," the Dream Weaver was silent for a moment and said: "I only want the woman by your side. Won't you just let me take her away?"

"Sorry, this woman is someone I swore to protect. This is what I owe her, and no one can take her away," Chen Yu said.

"Chen Yu, what on earth are you two talking about?" Liu Ruxi was stunned. She raised her head in disbelief: "That so-called Dream Weaver, his target is me?"

"It has nothing to do with you, don't think too much," Chen Yu comforted her: "Let's figure out a way to get out of here first."

"Your time is running out, hehe. If you can break out, I'll count it as your ability," the Dream Weaver sneered: "Failing last time was just an accident. Do you really think these accidents can happen at any time?"
