My Wife Is The Final Boss-Chapter 783 - 0442 Barrier Concealed (Two in One)

Zhu Pingniang now somewhat understands Xu Chang’an’s character.

In a sense, he is very compatible with her Ah Bai.

For people like them, compared to earth-shattering grandeur, it is precisely the warmth of a long-lasting trickle that touches the heart.

It was because of understanding this, and because her subtle feelings for Ah Bai moved the other, that Li Zhibai refused to become the Sect Leader of the Profound Sword Bureau back then.

Undoubtedly, with Li Zhibai’s strength, if she truly took over the Profound Sword Bureau, today’s Chaoyun Sect would definitely not be this balance of power; as long as she stepped in, with the Sect Leader not concerning himself with worldly affairs, the Chaoyun Sect would be her domain.

But precisely because these things held no allure for Li Zhibai, she chose to quietly stay on Muyu Peak as a homebody.

Xu Chang’an, the same.

Zhu Pingniang sighed lightly.

That’s why she said Xu Chang’an lacked the most crucial youthful spirit.

Ah Bai can be understood as coming from a prestigious family, combined with years of tranquil cultivation in the Daoist Temple, making her so serene and uncompetitive with the world... But Xu Chang’an?

Zhu Pingniang really couldn’t find a reason for Xu Chang’an to be like this.

Logically speaking, a young man who has lost memories of the past and has always lived on a secluded island, even if he married early, should he not be infinitely yearning for the outside world?

But Xu Chang’an never displayed such traits; he didn’t possess even a trace of a young man’s sharpness.

As if he bypassed hundreds of years of detours, becoming this way directly.

But Zhu Pingniang could actually find reasons.

If Xu Chang’an truly is the reincarnation of an Immortal... everything could be explained clearly, right?

As someone who once watched the clouds rise in the morning and observed the tides fall in the evening, a Ming Immortal, all the mysteries of this world would hold no secrets in his eyes. Even the billions of the Demon Race pressuring the Human Race in Qing Province would merely be child’s play in the eyes of a true Immortal...

This seems a plausible explanation for Xu Chang’an’s demeanor.

Thus, in front of Xu Chang’an and Yun Qian’s ordinary yet rightful love, all other emotional pursuits by girls, be it by Gu Qiancheng, Liu Qingluo, or Wen Li, would seem flimsy.

Because emotions, after all, are always mutual.

Unrequited longing or attachment, unable to see an answer.

So, even if Wen Li’s feelings for Xu Chang’an are more complicated than she thought... it serves no purpose.

Sighing softly, she gently held Wen Li’s hand and said with some sentiment.

"Ah Li, perhaps it’s not a bad thing for you to be unable to see clearly now; it means you still have a chance to turn back. Conversely... that girl Qingluo sees everything clearly, but she’s trapped and can’t come out."

"Turn back..." Wen Li did not understand.

"It’s sometimes good to be confused, haven’t you heard the saying that ignorance is bliss?" Zhu Pingniang pouted.

Actually, she had a feeling.

That if Xu Chang’an truly had a special identity, then his union with Yun Qian might be destiny, a decision made before his "descent."

In a world where everything is governed by Yin and Yang, not just anyone can be the other half of a Banished Immortal, right?

Of course not.

Yun Qian can become Xu Chang’an’s Yin facet; she must have something extraordinary, though currently, aside from Yun Qian being likable, nothing else has been discovered yet.

But if it truly is like this...

Zhu Pingniang couldn’t help shaking her head.

If this is the case, wouldn’t it mean Xu Chang’an’s fate was "predestined by heaven?"

Then... would his disregard for other girls beside Yun Qian become understandable?

However, Zhu Pingniang still found it strange because if he were an Immortal, shouldn’t he subconsciously not be so fervent in pursuit of power?

Yet Xu Chang’an’s pursuit of power was clear to her eyes.

"Do not understand." Zhu Pingniang gripped Wen Li’s hand more firmly, murmuring in a somewhat bewildered manner: "But... it must be a good thing... right."

Because of Xu Chang’an’s appearance, the Sect Leader’s sentiments were restored, and she no longer had to worry about the Supreme Forgetting Emotions issue...

Moreover, most crucially.

A direction that Zhu Pingniang had never considered finally appeared in her mind.

If indeed an Immortal appears, and stands on the side of the Human Race, does it signify... this world needs a change?

"Ah Li, you like Chang’an, right?" Zhu Pingniang suddenly asked.

"I do."

"No, what I meant is... long-lasting peace, eternal Chang’an."

"Oh." Wen Li regained her senses, nodding: "I like that."

"Then perhaps... it falls on Chang’an." Zhu Pingniang stretched lazily, ripples forming in her eyes: "Eternal Chang’an... Our Human Race has been trapped in Qing Province for too long, hasn’t it... Speaking of which, though Qing Province is vast and boundless, it still... has borders."

Hearing this, Wen Li looked at Zhu Pingniang in slight confusion.

She somewhat did not understand Zhu Pingniang’s intention.

Now the Demon Race is strong and the Human Race has set up barriers with Qing Province. After reaching a certain level of cultivation, the demons outside cannot enter, and people inside cannot leave... This has been the state for countless years.

Throughout ancient books, the world outside Qing Province is barely described, sufficing to show how long the Barrier has isolated them.

And whilst Qing Province is vast, fertile, and abundant, instead of saying the Human Race is trapped in a cage, it’s essentially the Human Race "occupying" the resources that have made the Demon Race generations envious due to the Barrier.
