Chapter 148 Are you sure...you're from 30,000 years ago?
The little golden retriever glared at him with a deep look, and now he really couldn't speak.
What a bad guy... this candied hawthorn is so big, how could she possibly finish it in one bite?
Jiang Nian also put one in his mouth and held it.
It was sweet and sour, with a taste of childhood.
The environment of the island was not bad, but the facilities were not so good, far inferior to Wuhun City.
After strolling around, Jiang Nian and Qian Renxue left the more lively area.
The island was surrounded by the sea on three sides, and many places were ordinary.
He didn't know how a place like this could give birth to ten-thousand-year or thousand-year soul beasts.
He wouldn't say much about a hundred-year soul beast, after all, some people had reached that age.
"Actually, we can go up the mountain and take a look. Those ordinary people can't enter the mist, but can't the two of us Soul Emperors?"
Qian Renxue lowered her head and took a bite of osmanthus cake, then stood on tiptoe and put it to Jiang Nian's mouth.
He opened his mouth helplessly, thinking that Haji Xue was really a strange creature, he had to mark her before feeding her.
He'd almost thought she was using some kind of soul skill to better control herself. He was afraid the super rare Pokémon she'd captured would run off with someone else.
"Alright."
Jiang Nian wasn't oblivious to the possibility; he was even a little curious.
However, he had no idea how much of what the boatman said was true.
There might not be any ten-thousand-year-old soul beast at all, just a rather large giant python.
Most of the people on the island were ordinary people, the strongest being only a Great Soul Master, and they might not even live on the island.
Word would circulate, and perhaps decades later, people would say,
"[A god once perished on this island.]" or "
[An uncle of mine raised a god on this island.]"
In short, Jiang Nian always maintained a high degree of skepticism about anything uncertain.
The two began their ascent.
Hand in hand, they climbed, one step at a time.
Jiang Nian walked ahead, the little golden retriever following behind.
She kept her head down, mimicking Jiang Nian's pace.
Sometimes she followed his rhythm perfectly, sometimes she went against him, and finally she followed in his footsteps.
This staircase had indeed been deserted for a long time.
Every stone slab was covered in a thick layer of dust.
After more than an hour, they finally reached the top.
At this moment, their vision was filled with a thick fog, making it impossible to see what lay hidden within.
Qian Renxue tiptoed to peek inside, scratching her head, wondering whether she should use her Martial Soul.
Jiang Nian activated his Fiery Eyes of Truth, observing the situation inside.
"It's actually a maze... Without the spiritual power of a Soul Saint or higher, it might really be impossible to find the entrance."
"Ah?" The little golden retriever was startled, immediately realizing that the boatman's words might not be false.
But... how could such a maze exist on a secluded island?
Could... there really be some secret hidden inside?
Jiang Nian frowned slightly; his heart was pounding, as if something was guiding him to this place.
What a strange feeling…
"Let's go in."
"Mmm!"
Qian Renxue looked around at the mist, curiously observing.
Her grip on Jiang Nian's arm tightened, afraid they might accidentally separate.
Luckily, he had sharp eyes and could see through the illusion.
Ten minutes later.
Light finally appeared in their vision, no longer the thick mist, but a beautiful, vibrant peach blossom forest.
Perhaps to welcome their arrival, the branches rustled, and scattered peach blossoms danced in the air, creating a beautiful scene.
Qian Renxue's eyes sparkled as she looked up at the beautiful sight before her, unable to resist letting go of Jiang Nian's hand and running through the sea of flowers.
"Little Jiang, we're lucky!"
"I actually waited for these peach trees to bloom..."
The girl's happy expression amidst the falling petals made him chuckle.
It's a pity there are no cameras in this world.
If only he could capture it.
The little golden retriever happily spun around a few times, then, taking advantage of the ambiguous atmosphere, jumped onto him.
Without a word, it started nibbling.
It proved that a girl's initiative was truly unimaginable.
Jiang Nian was almost bursting with pent-up desire, yet she continued to demand more.
In the shadows, a gaze fixed on their intimate moment, a hint of melancholy flashing in its emerald vertical pupils.
Fleeting, it was replaced by a deep longing and joy.
Tap tap tap~
Crisp footsteps reached their ears.
The little golden retriever froze for a moment, then immediately raised its head and climbed off Jiang Nian, its face flushed, looking down ahead.
Here... how could there be someone else?!
So, this person saw their kiss just now?!
Qian Renxue felt utterly ashamed, wishing she could immediately do a bungee jump off the mountain without using her soul power.
Hiding behind Jiang Nian, she peeked out from his elbow, her eyes blinking as she sized up the woman approaching them…?!
Yes, it was a woman.
She had long, black hair tied in a high ponytail, and her delicate features possessed a cool, aloof beauty.
Dressed in a white robe, she had the air of a reclusive fairy.
The woman had emerald green vertical pupils, and when she looked at Jiang Nian, there was a perceptible tenderness and excitement.
But when she looked at Qian Renxue, there was a palpable tremor, as if she were facing an enemy and ready to strike at any moment.
Jiang Nian's expression darkened, and he immediately shielded her behind him, activating his martial soul and wings, a flash of silver light in his pupils.
The little golden retriever also sensed something was amiss, warily watching the woman with the blue hair tie.
Besides her looks, her aura was clearly that of an extraordinary soul master.
When she was about five meters away from them, she stopped.
She raised her head and met Jiang Nian's gaze.
Those emerald green eyes held an unfathomable emotion, as if spanning millennia.
"Brother Jiang Nian, long time no see..."
The two stared wide-eyed.
Qian Renxue even took a bite of his flesh; Jiang Nian was willing to call her a woman who could react to seashells.
"Hmph!"
The little golden retriever emerged from behind him, stepping in front of him.
Hands on hips, like a lioness guarding her prey.
The woman didn't look at him, her gaze fixed on Jiang Nian's eyes, those emerald vertical pupils seemingly holding countless stories.
"Hey, hey, hey! Stealing my man right in front of me!"
"And you, Xiao Jiang, are you two exchanging glances?!"
Jiang Nian smiled awkwardly, patting Qian Renxue's head to comfort her.
He was certain he had never met this girl before.
But why could she say his name?
And call him so intimately...?
"Xiaoxue, I know you're anxious, but don't rush."
"Hmph~"
Qian Renxue fell silent, glaring at the aloof beauty. She wanted to see what was going on.
"Young lady, have we met before?" Jiang Nian scratched his head, a hint of curiosity in his voice. He thought to himself that he hadn't seen her when he was a child either.
The woman nodded slightly, two hot tears unconsciously streaming down her emerald green vertical pupils.
A sincere smile forced onto her cool face, and she took two deep breaths, her voice trembling.
"We have..."
"Thirty thousand years, without seeing each other..."
