Chapter 177 - Horse Carriage

“Senior Li, what’s wrong?” Bai Lingmiao was frightened by his suddenly bizarre behavior. She tried holding him down but was surprised to find that his skin was burning hot.

“Senior Li, stop! Don’t think about it anymore! I won’t ask you again!” Bai Lingmiao started sobbing as she hugged him despite the heat.

Hearing her voice, Li Huowang closed his eyes, trying his best to think about other things.

But it was futile. The broken pieces of memory within him soon joined together.

A suffocating image popped up in his mind, one that he was supposed to forget.

The image was both still yet moving at the same time. He tried his best to describe it.

“Behind the jade plate was a place called the Baiyu Capital. I’ve seen things, things that I cannot describe! They are massive and cold!”

Li Huowang’s voice was hoarse and deep, but he stammered a lot. His body trembled uncontrollably as he continued, “Mortals must never set foot there! If they do, they get taken away and decomposed into bits and pieces of abstract items! Humans were all made by them! If everything that constitutes us is taken away, then we would disappear as well, just like Dan Yangzi! But then something within the depths of the Baiyu Capital pulled me in! It sucked me into the depths where I saw the entire world! And then, I felt it! I felt what it was thinking!” The original appearance of this chapter can be found at Ñøv€lß1n.

At that moment, another pair of hands pushed down on Li Huowang’s forehead. The hands pushed down stronger and stronger, the pain from the pressure alleviating Li Huowang’s headache a little.

Li Huowang didn’t know who it was but continued talking, “I could understand it and what it was thinking! Only I could do it and no one else! It had gone mad!”

Li Huowang felt the image within his mind slowly escape his grasp. The beings within the image stared back at Li Huowang.

“I saw the past... In the past, it was not like this! It was perfect... But now... it’s crying! IT IS CRYING!”

“Who is ‘it’?” A cold female voice came from behind Li Huowang.

The veins on Li Huowang’s forehead bulged to the point of rupturing but he somehow held it in as he used all his remaining strength and shouted, “Da Nuo! It is Da Nuo!”

But from the looks of it, this was not the case.

There was something wrong with this world, something extremely wrong.

It was as if the whole world was sick just like him. However, this was not how it was supposed to be. Instead, it was supposed to be a more... normal world.

“What’s wrong with this world?” Li Huowang mumbled. “And that being... It’s called Da Nuo? Is it related to the Nuo Opera? According to Lu Zhuangyuan, the Nuo Opera was an ancient show, possibly the ancestor of all the other shows. Looks like the Nuo Opera performers worship Da Nuo but...”

Li Huowang recalled the performers who got duped by the members of the Sitting Oblivion Dao. They were neither strong nor influential—they were even weaker than the bandits.

“Ai~,” Li Huowang sighed, too lazy to be bothered by such details.

Regardless of what happened to Da Nuo, it didn’t matter to him.

He was just a normal man, so he should be thinking about his next step.

How should he live here? That was his next question.

Not only had he traveled to the depths of Baiyu Capital, but he hadn’t disappeared like Dan Yangzi. In fact, he was still alive!

Is this the power of a Strayed One? Or was it because Ba-Hui saved me?

Li Huowang made some random guesses, but it was not easy to come up with a satisfying answer. It was great to be alive, but he was afraid that there might be consequences.

After a moment, Li Huowang sat up and put on his clothes.

He stared out from the horse carriage and gazed at the river, only to see Bai Lingmiao’s hair swaying gently with the wind.

At this moment, she was concentrating on washing clothes. The morning sunlight lit up a part of her face and made her look like an ethereal beauty.

Staring at the girl who was willing to go through Heaven and Hell together with him, he felt touched. “Since she is willing to stay by my side, then no matter how I came back to life, I will have to continue living. Thankfully everything has ended now.”
