Reincarnated as a Mosquito, I Sucked the Reborn Empress to Tears - Chapter 392: A Third Gu Yuexi? The Truth of Rebirth?
’No, that’s not right!’
Chu Sheng quickly dismissed his own thought.
Her figure and aura were practically identical, as if carved from the same mold.
But this woman was clearly far more mature and powerful than the Gu Yuexi of the present.
The current Gu Yuexi had only just broken through to Seventh-Grade. Although she had some tricks up her sleeve, on a battlefield of this caliber, she was little more than cannon fodder.
But this woman before him…
She just stood there, and the very Space around her seemed to revolve around her. Her aura was even stronger than Xiao Hei’s, more terrifying than that Fierce Beast’s!
’Is that… an existence beyond the Emperor Realm?’
’Could she be… the Gu Yuexi from her previous life?’
’No, that’s not right either!’
’Based on the aura from the stone tablet in the Celestial Trace Abyss, this memory must have taken place at least tens of thousands of years ago.’
’But the Gu Yuexi from the previous life lived, at most, a few hundred years ago.’
’So, who exactly is this “Gu Yuexi”?’
’Is it just a resemblance?’
’Or… could it be that even the Gu Yuexi of the past life was a reincarnation?’
’Reincarnated from this “Gu Yuexi” from ten thousand years ago. And for some reason, the past-life Gu Yuexi wasn’t aware of it.’
’Tsk, tsk, tsk. Now things are getting really interesting.’
Just as Chu Sheng’s mind was racing with wild thoughts,
Xiao Hei moved again!
He whipped his head around, looking down at the still-roaring Outer Realm Fierce Beast below.
“I can’t waste any more time on you.”
Xiao Hei’s voice was as cold as ice:
“How could I let a brute like you hold me back!”
“Since I can’t kill you, I’ll just suppress you until the end of time!”
The moment he finished speaking, Xiao Hei clapped his hands together forcefully.
RUMBLE—
The earth for a hundred miles around began to tremble violently.
An indescribably terrifying Law of Gravity erupted from within Xiao Hei.
“Suppress!”
As he spat out the single word,
the Fierce Beast, which had been baring its fangs and claws, was slammed down from the sky as if by a giant, invisible hand.
BANG!
It crashed heavily onto the ground, blasting a massive crater hundreds of meters wide.
Immediately after, Xiao Hei made a grasping motion with his hands.
The earth cracked open, and four thick chains forged from geode-vein gold shot out from below like four black dragons. They instantly pierced the Fierce Beast’s limbs, pinning it securely to the bottom of the crater.
“Rise!”
Xiao Hei shouted again.
The land on both sides of the giant crater began to rise crazily.
One thousand meters… five thousand meters… ten thousand meters!
Two towering mountain ranges erupted from the ground, soaring into the clouds and sealing off the area completely, forming a long, deep canyon.
Chu Sheng watched, utterly dumbfounded.
’What the… so this is the origin of the Celestial Trace Abyss?!’
’These are the methods of an Emperor Realm expert?’
’Terrifying, truly terrifying!’
After doing all this, Xiao Hei was still not at ease.
He levitated a huge black stone, and with his finger as a blade, he carved line after line of large characters onto it with flamboyant strokes.
To prevent some idiot in the future from wandering in by mistake and releasing the monster, he even took care to use the scripts of several different civilizations.
That level of meticulousness was really something else.
However, even suppressed like this, the Fierce Beast at the bottom of the crater continued to struggle frantically, letting out infuriating roars. It seemed ready to break free from the chains at any moment.
Xiao Hei’s brow furrowed, and he was about to add a few more seals.
Just then.
A clear, cold, and indifferent voice suddenly echoed between heaven and earth:
“Noisy.”
The voice wasn’t loud, yet it seemed to resonate directly in the depths of one’s soul, causing the rampaging Fierce Beast to fall silent for an instant.
Chu Sheng felt Xiao Hei’s heart skip a beat.
His vision shifted.
A figure in white, purer than snow, had appeared above the canyon at some unknown time.
It was the woman who looked so much like Gu Yuexi!
She didn’t look back at Xiao Hei. Her eyes, as brilliant and cold as stars, merely glanced indifferently at the Fierce Beast in the crater below.
Then, she raised her delicate hand.
SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!
Three streaks of black light shot from her fingertips.
They were three long nails, black as ink, covered in strange and complex runes. They emanated a terrifying aura capable of freezing one’s very soul.
PFFT! PFFT! PFFT!
Without any resistance,
the three nails precisely pierced the Fierce Beast’s brow, chest, and spine.
“AWOOO—!!!”
The Fierce Beast let out a shriek countless times more wretched than before, and its entire body went limp instantly. As if its spine had been ripped out, it lay dead-still on the ground, unable to move.
Only after doing all this did the woman in white slowly turn to face Xiao Hei.
“There.”
Her voice was still cold:
“Go to the main battlefield. You are needed there.”
At that moment, Chu Sheng, existing within the memory, could clearly feel Xiao Hei’s heart pounding wildly. He was just about to speak when,
suddenly,
the woman in white’s gaze sharpened abruptly.
“Oh?”
She let out a soft sound of surprise.
Her gaze, which had been on Xiao Hei, suddenly became incomparably sharp, like two Divine Swords piercing straight through his physical body to look into the deepest part of his soul.
No.
To be more precise,
she was looking at Chu Sheng!
Chu Sheng felt his entire body stiffen as the feeling of being targeted by some great terror washed over him.
’Holy shit? She can see me?!’
’How is that possible!’
’This is just a memory! This is history that happened tens of thousands of years ago!’
’She’s a person from the past! How can she possibly see me in the present?’
’It was the same with “Xiaobai” back then!’
’Are all people from the Divine Realm this badass?’
While Chu Sheng was in shock…
Xiao Hei, meanwhile, found his heart beating faster and faster under “Gu Yuexi’s” gaze.
This guy who had been so domineering and unrivaled just a moment ago was now on the verge of blushing…
However, in reality, Gu Yuexi wasn’t looking at him at all.
She was still staring at Chu Sheng, as if she saw something in him.
The coldness in her eyes gradually melted away, replaced by an extremely complex expression.
There was surprise, realization, and disappointment, which finally coalesced into a quiet sigh.
“Heh, interesting.”
The corners of her mouth curved into a faint, enigmatic smile, breathtakingly beautiful yet evoking a strange sense of sorrow:
“So… I failed in the end after all?”
This cryptic sentence left Chu Sheng even more bewildered.
’Failed? Failed at what?’
Before he could figure it out,
the woman in white suddenly extended a slender, jade-like finger and tapped lightly at the empty air.
“Little bug.”
“To meet across ten thousand years is a matter of fate.”
“Take this gift.”
“I hope she… can have a different ending.”
As her voice fell,
a speck of incomparably brilliant starlight flew from her fingertip, ignoring the barrier of time and space, and instantly filled Chu Sheng’s entire vision.
“Holy fuck? Wait—”
Chu Sheng only had time to let out a scream.
The next second,
BOOM!
the scene shattered completely, and Chu Sheng’s consciousness was once again plunged into a vortex.
…
「Celestial Trace Abyss.」
Atop the black stone tablet.
The little black mosquito lying on it convulsed violently and woke up with a start, as if from a nightmare.
[Ding! Detected injection of extremely high-intensity Divine Soul Energy!]
[Ding! Host’s current constitution is unable to absorb this Energy. The system has automatically sealed it for the time being.]
