Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again-Chapter 1116: Reopening the Reincarnation Gate
The people were babbling swiftly in an unknown language, fleeing toward the border, while a troop pursued them.
Then Gu Qiaoqiao couldn’t hear anything more, because the distance was too far.
Gu Qiaoqiao opened her eyes, feeling some pain on her forehead—a result of using too much power earlier.
She placed her hand on her forehead, gently massaging for a while. Once recovered, Gu Qiaoqiao gazed deeply in the direction of Cliff Village, where many were already asleep.
So many unnamed heroes were protecting the safety of this country, naturally including this Cliff Village.
A fierce determination appeared in Gu Qiaoqiao’s eyes; she would ensure that the demons in Cliff Village were punished. They did not deserve the protection of these unnamed heroes.
But it was already late today, and going to Cliff Village now would be inappropriate—not only would it accomplish nothing, but also might alert the enemy.
Moreover, there were Ling Nan and Xiao Wen to consider.
She also needed to process the events she encountered tonight.
Gu Qiaoqiao sat on a rock in front of the cave, lifting her head to look at the bright moonlight.
The moonbeams at this moment were like water, draping the entire mountain forest in a layer of white gauze, with faint white mist drifting from afar, making the mountain forest appear dreamlike.
Gu Qiaoqiao touched the place where the envelope was kept. No wonder she never felt aversion toward Liang Yan; it turned out she was inherently a good person,
It might sound speculative, but Gu Qiaoqiao instinctively knew that a person’s aura is closely related to their disposition.
This must be what some in the Mystic Sect referred to as the Energy Sphere.
The Energy Sphere of a kind person is comforting, while that of a wicked person naturally incites loathing.
Gu Qiaoqiao turned back to look at the dagger lying on the cave floor, stained with Liang Yan’s blood. Gu Qiaoqiao’s hand clenched tightly, then relaxed as an understanding dawned on her.
In her past life, Master Fong’s only journey away from home was surely related to Liang Yan; otherwise, he wouldn’t have left the Imperial Capital in such a hurry, without leaving any explanation.
Gu Qiaoqiao didn’t know whether Liang Yan was alive or dead at that time, nor what had become of Master Fong and Liang Yan in the end?
Gu Qiaoqiao thought, now that she was entangled with these people by fate, she really needed to reopen the Reincarnation Gate of the Mysterious Dragon Box.
She wondered if it could be done today?
Gu Qiaoqiao fixed her eyes firmly on the blood on the dagger, an idea forming in her mind. She stood up quickly, heading to the cave to take out the Mysterious Dragon Box from her backpack.
She then opened the Mysterious Dragon Box, and as always, a white light sphere hovered above the box like a Luminous Pearl.
Gu Qiaoqiao picked up the dagger and dripped a drop of fresh blood onto the light sphere, then the surrounding air seemed to warp in waves.
Gu Qiaoqiao calmly focused her gaze forward, and suddenly the light sphere burst into a myriad of lights, just like the time she opened the Time-Space Gate.
Gu Qiaoqiao was instantly standing in a void, and then a door appeared before her. She pushed the door open with one push.
Her heart thudded in her chest. At the moment the door opened, a strong light pierced her eyes, causing her to involuntarily close them for a second before quickly reopening them to see the scene before her.
It was a martyrs’ cemetery.
A group of uniformed Public Security officers stood in front of a tombstone, with a leader speaking, their faces solemn and expressions grief-stricken.
Then, they slowly raised their right hands—in salute.
Following the direction of their salute, Gu Qiaoqiao saw the words engraved on the tombstone. Although she couldn’t see it all clearly, eight words stood out distinctly: First-Class Hero Comrade Liang Yan...
Gu Qiaoqiao suddenly froze.
Liang Yan had sacrificed herself?
Gu Qiaoqiao’s heart suddenly sank.
It felt like she had fallen into a bottomless abyss.
Then she saw in the distance, a tall figure like a Green Pine, dressed in black, his hand tightly gripping the branches of a shrub beside him.
With too much force, the sharp thorns on the branch pierced the skin of his palm, blood trickling down.
It was Master Fong, Fong Lei!
Yet Fong Lei seemed completely unaware of his injured hand, his eyes red, his thin lips tightly pressed, icy cold.
The face that was usually expressionless was now filled with grief and despair. She had seen such an expression on Qin Yize’s face, such tears on Qin Yize’s face before, too.
Gu Qiaoqiao could no longer hold back and burst into tears.
Then all the scenes vanished, leaving Gu Qiaoqiao dizzy. She collapsed onto the cave floor, facing the Mysterious Dragon Box which had lost its glow, and the blood-stained dagger.
Gu Qiaoqiao felt weak all over. To prevent herself from fainting, she hurriedly placed her hand on her temples, and after a few breaths, she felt much better.
Afterward, Gu Qiaoqiao drew up her legs and buried her face in her knees. Despite knowing that it was all in a past life, despite knowing that this life had started anew,
she still couldn’t suppress the sadness in her heart.
At this moment, she heard the footsteps of Xiao Wen and Ling Nan outside the cave; then Xiao Wen entered cheerfully with Ling Nan, prompting Gu Qiaoqiao to lift her head from her knees.
Seeing Gu Qiaoqiao in this state frightened Xiao Wen, and she immediately noticed the bloody dagger on the ground. Xiao Wen looked around, then quickly moved to Gu Qiaoqiao’s side, embracing her, "Qiaoqiao, what’s going on? What happened? Where is Liang Yan?"
"I’m fine, Liang Yan went back."
"Where did she go back to?"
"She returned to her battlefield..." Gu Qiaoqiao said hoarsely.
Ling Nan picked up the bloody dagger, sniffed it near his nose, glanced at Gu Qiaoqiao, and asked in a low voice, "Sister Qiaoqiao, is this Liang Yan’s blood?"
"Yes, it is hers."
Subsequently, Gu Qiaoqiao recounted the events that had just transpired, and both Xiao Wen and Ling Nan fell silent in unison.
Their eyes, however, were filled with admiration; who would’ve thought that the gentle, water-like lady was actually an undercover detective.
Moreover, after completing her mission, she infiltrated the enemy’s lair to continue fighting—how could they not sincerely admire and be moved by this?
Xiao Wen asked with some worry, "Qiaoqiao, she won’t be in trouble, will she?"
Gu Qiaoqiao looked at Xiao Wen and firmly shook her head, "She won’t be in trouble, she definitely won’t be in trouble."
In this life, because of Gu Qiaoqiao’s presence, everything had changed.
Whoever was linked to her by fate would have their tragic destinies altered because of her.
