Chapter 480 - Thousand Years (1/2)

Jiang State Capital, Meng Manor’s inner courtyard, Lake Heart Pavilion.

“It’s really well painted,” said Liu Qiyue as she watched from the side.

Meng Chuan sat in front of the painting table and painted. He smiled at his wife and continued painting. Liu Qiyue carefully studied the painting, which depicted a white-haired Meng Chuan and a white-haired Liu Qiyue sitting together. They took in the fractured world’s view and the purple lightning tearing through endless the darkness—the scene of a forming world…

Regardless of a forming or dying world, it was as though the two of them would forever be together.

“Alright.” Meng Chuan stopped painting and moved aside.

Liu Qiyue stood in front of the table and carefully admired the painting. She stared at the scene of a shattered world and the purple lightning tearing through the darkness. The depicted forming world induced a sense of awe and fear within her. Although Meng Chuan didn’t paint it with deep purpose, the grand scene still pressured her. However, grand as the scenes were, the white-haired man and the white-haired woman remained the painting’s core.

The white-haired duo leaned against each other; it was as if they would continue doing so for an eternity. One could clearly sense the intent of eternity.

Tears welled up in Liu Qiyue’s eyes. “Good, very good.”

Meng Chuan hugged his wife and glanced at the painting in front of him.

“Ah Chuan, ever since we got married, you have painted a painting for me every year. Including the three paintings you painted for me before we got married,” said Liu Qiyue softly, “there are a total of 72 paintings. In the past, when I was free, I often took a look at those paintings. I was very happy whenever I saw them.”

Meng Chuan hugged his wife tightly.

“After I enter the slumber, 1,000 years will pa.s.s in an instant.” Liu Qiyue looked at her husband. “To me, 1,000 years will pa.s.s in the blink of an eye. I won’t feel any pain or suffering. However, you will have to endure the torment of time alone.”

“Time will fly by,” said Meng Chuan with a smile.

“I’ll leave these 72 paintings with you for now. Give them back to me when I wake up.” Liu Qiyue smiled at her husband. “Whenever you miss me, you can take a look at these paintings.” Meng Chuan nodded and smiled. “Alright.”

In the last few days, she bade farewell to Meng Dajiang and his wife, as well as Liu Yebai.

After all, Meng Dajiang, Liu Yebai, and others couldn’t enter Archean Mountain’s Millennium Hall.

Archean Mountain, in a grotto-heaven.

White fog filled the area, causing the grotto-heaven to look bleak and desolate. Through the white fog, one could see a palace in the distance.

Meng Chuan, Liu Qiyue, Li Guan, an illusory Qin Wu, an illusory Luo Tang, Meng An, and Meng You arrived together.

Two figures sat cross-legged in front of the cold, lonely palace. One figure was a black-robed man; the other was a black-robed, red-haired woman. They were Archean Mountain’s two Dao Protectors.

Since the pressure on the cities had lessened over the past few years, the two of them temporarily rested here.

“Oh?” The two Dao Protectors opened their eyes at the same time. When they saw that it was Li Guan, Meng Chuan, and company, they naturally didn’t stop them from advancing. Meng Chuan and company continued forward.

Boom!

Meng Chuan, Li Guan, the illusory Qin Wu, and the illusory Luo Tang simultaneously stretched out their hands and pushed the palace doors.

The door immediately opened with a rumble. A freezing-cold wind swept out.

Through the palace doors, one could see many figures lying inside the palace. All of them were frozen within dark-blue ice.

“Wait here,” instructed Meng Chuan.

“Yes, Dad,” replied Meng An and Meng You.

Meng You—the weakest of the group-was only a Marquis. She was only permitted to come to this important area because she was Liu Qiyue’s daughter.

“Meng Chuan, we won’t be entering,” said Qin Wu.

“Alright.” Meng Chuan nodded and led his wife, Liu Qiyue, into the Millennium Hall.

Currently, 17 figures were sleeping within Millennium Hall. After the pressure on the cities had reduced, many ancient Regis G.o.dfiend returned to Millennium Hall to slumber.

Whoosh.

Meng Chuan walked to an empty spot and waved his hand. He placed a jade bed—which he had prepared in advance-down.

Liu Qiyue smiled and sat on it before slowly lying down.

“Mom.” Meng An and Meng You watched outside the hall, unwilling to separate from her.

Her slumber could last for 1,000 years. If Meng You couldn’t become a Regis G.o.dfiend, this could be their final meeting.

Liu Qiyue lay down and looked at her children outside the hall before looking at her husband.
