Chapter 1619

“Among the myriad karmic laws in the world, young master, please stay for a moment.”

Could he have sensed the simulations of the Reincarnation Mirror? Was he able to capture those projected scenes?

But that would be too unbelievable.

Saintess Xiyuan shook her head in her mind, feeling that this was simply impossible. The Reincarnation Mirror was an artifact of the First Civilization, and there was no one in the world who could capture its simulation scenes.

She was more inclined to think that Gu Changge had an extraordinarily strong divine sense, was attuned to the will of heaven, and could perceive some of the simulations involving him that the mirror presented. After all, the future simulated within the Reincarnation Mirror was essentially a re-evaluation of the causality involving him.

However, no matter which possibility it was, the sudden meeting with Gu Changge in this manner still deeply shook the Saintess Xiyuan. Her heart was filled with caution and wariness.

“The myriad karmic laws in the world, sometimes it’s simply like this—though we’ve never met before, it feels as if we’ve known each other for a long time.”

“And who might this lady be?”

Saintess Xiyuan, veiled and speaking softly, gently walked through the pavilion and seemed to just notice Ling Yuxian, beginning to inquire about her identity and intentions.

She knew that Gu Changge was definitely not a member of the Yuxian Palace.

As for the woman before her, there was a strange aura about her that made her feel uneasy, and for a moment, she couldn’t figure out where she came from.

Ling Yuxian was still guessing the relationship between Saintess Xiyuan and Gu Changge. When she suddenly heard Saintess Xiyuan’s question, she came back to her senses and began introducing herself, while also inquiring about the whereabouts of Saintess Xiyuan’s master.

She had come to visit Saintess Xiyuan following her older sister Ling Yuling’s advice, and her real aim was to gather information about Saintess Xiyuan’s master.

This was because Saintess Xiyuan’s master was the one who established the Xiyuan Sacred Hall—one of the leading figures in the alliance that fought against the Da Tian Organization in ancient times. It was not surprising that she was entrusted with the Reincarnation Mirror, the treasure of the First Civilization.

“My master? She has long disappeared for many epochs. Since I became the Saintess of the Xiyuan Sacred Hall, I haven’t seen her again. I don’t know if she’s still in the various worlds or if she’s wandering in some deep corner of time and space…”

Saintess Xiyuan hadn’t expected anyone to ask about her master.

This wasn’t a secret in the Xiyuan Civilization.

Now, the Xiyuan Civilization was under her control, and even the First Civilization treasure, the Reincarnation Mirror, was in her hands.

“It seems that my sister’s plan is not going to work.”

Ling Yuxian felt some regret. She knew that her sister had wanted to contact the ancient sage, and that must be related to the great disaster the Xiyuan Civilization was about to face.

She also knew that her own strength was limited, so she hadn’t asked about the great disaster.

Saintess Xiyuan was curious and wanted to know why Ling Yuxian had asked about her master.

“Mainly, it’s my sister. She wants to visit Senior Xiyu. There are some matters that perhaps need to be discussed with Senior Xiyu.”

As Ling Yuxian spoke, she glanced at Gu Changge, who was quietly savoring the tea brought by the maid, appearing as if he had no interest in the world.The founder of the Xiyuan Sacred Hall is named Xiyu, and no one knows her origins.

It is said that she is incredibly ancient, possibly a figure from an even more primordial era.

After all, to be able to wield the treasure of the First Civilization in the battle against the Da Tian Organization’s destruction and become a leader figure, she surely wouldn’t be an ordinary person.

“Who is your sister?”

Saintess Xiyuan was slightly surprised.

To be honest, she hadn’t heard the name Xiyu in a long time. Even the public probably didn’t know what her master’s real name was.

She became increasingly curious about Ling Yuxian and the origins of the sister she mentioned.

“My sister is the founding ancestor of the Yuxian Palace,” Ling Yuxian answered directly.

“What?”

This statement stunned Saintess Xiyuan. At first, she thought she had misheard, but then it hit her. She was completely astonished, and her mouth slightly opened beneath her veil.

The founding ancestor of the Yuxian Palace was the sister of this woman before her? Could that mean she and her master were from the same era?

Originally, she thought Ling Yuxian was a young prodigy from the current generation of Yuxian Palace, someone sent by the elders to find her.

But she never imagined that her background would be so extraordinary.

A figure from the same era as her master standing right in front of her, and still looking so young—this was indeed something out of a fantastical tale.

However, Saintess Xiyuan was no ordinary person. She quickly composed herself, her expression turning a little more complex as she looked at Ling Yuxian.

“It seems I should address you as a senior,” she said.

Although Ling Yuxian appeared young, if she were from that era, she must have found a way to be reborn through reincarnation and restore her body and essence.

Moreover, since she was with Gu Changge, there had to be something extraordinary about her as well.

“There’s no need for that,” Ling Yuxian gently waved her hand. Seeing that Saintess Xiyuan no longer treated her with the same casualness and slight disdain, she didn’t pay too much attention to these formalities.

Besides, since she was now reincarnated and in the process of cultivation, her strength was far inferior to that of Saintess Xiyuan.

She herself was not someone who cared much about these trivial details.

“My master has long since left the Xiyuan Sacred Hall, and her whereabouts are unknown. Now, I oversee the Xiyuan Sacred Hall. If the Yuxian Palace has any matters to discuss, it would be the same for me to consult with you.”

Saintess Xiyuan nodded and continued.

Before today, she had never thought that the founder of Yuxian Palace might still be alive.

For many epochs, Yuxian Palace had remained very low-key, often giving the impression of a declining power.

However, the recent commotion in the Shengyang Ancient Domain with the Jing Clan—could that also be related to the founder of Yuxian Palace?

At this moment, Saintess Xiyuan connected many dots in her mind.Behind what she couldn’t see, dark currents were surging, and many earth-shattering changes were taking place.

Could it be that her long-lost master would return at this time?

“I’m not sure what my sister wants to discuss with Senior Xiyu. It seems that, in the end, she’ll have to come and find you herself,” Ling Yuxian said, shaking her head.

Upon hearing this, Saintess Xiyuan lightly shook her head and said, “There’s no need to trouble Senior to come personally. After the banquet in Chu Gucheng ends, I’ll accompany you to the Yuxian Palace, and then you can speak directly with Senior. That would be better.”

She noticed that when Ling Yuxian mentioned her sister, Gu Changge’s expression remained unchanged, without a hint of concern.

Clearly, Gu Changge was already aware of this matter, and it was very likely that the founder of Yuxian Palace knew him as well.

“That works too.” Ling Yuxian nodded, not wanting to make things too complicated.

Besides, her sister’s current identity was not suitable for being publicly revealed.

Then, Saintess Xiyuan’s gaze shifted to Gu Changge. She noticed his movements as he sipped his tea and suddenly recalled the future scene simulated in the Reincarnation Mirror. Her long eyelashes trembled slightly.

She remembered that during one of her future simulations, she had personally served him tea with her left hand, only to be killed by him casually.

Thinking about this, a surge of unexplained anger rose within her. Although it had been a simulated future, it was as if she had experienced that moment firsthand.

As someone who had always been transcendent and noble, she personally served him tea, only to be rejected and ultimately killed.

If word of this spread to the outside world, it would stir up unimaginable waves.

“Why did the Saintess suddenly have such a big emotional shift?”

Gu Changge suddenly set down his teacup and looked up at Saintess Xiyuan, seemingly surprised.

Saintess Xiyuan realized that her emotional fluctuation had been quite obvious in that moment. She quickly composed herself, lightly shaking her head. “I just suddenly thought of a bad experience.”

Gu Changge smiled. “I see. I thought for a moment that I had accidentally offended the Saintess and that you were about to take action against me.”

Saintess Xiyuan was taken aback, not expecting Gu Changge’s divine sense to be so powerful and terrifying that he could even sense this?

She hurriedly shook her head. “You are overthinking it, Young Master Gu. How could I possibly take action against you? Moreover, how could you offend me?”

As she spoke, she suddenly smiled. Even with her veil on, the smile made everything around her dim in comparison.

The maid who had been serving tea and pouring water was stunned by the sight.

“I wouldn’t know about that.” Gu Changge shook his head with a light laugh.

Seeing the two of them, though it was their first meeting, they seemed as if they had known each other for a long time. Ling Yuxian couldn’t help but feel a sudden, uncomfortable feeling of irritation rising in her heart.

“Senior Brother Gu, since there’s nothing else, shall we leave now? We shouldn’t disturb the Saintess’s rest.” Ling Yuxian spoke up.

“Alright.” Gu Changge smiled and was about to rise from his seat.

“Young Master Gu, please stay for a moment. I suddenly have something I would like to ask and discuss with you in private.”

However, Saintess Xiyuan spoke up, wanting to keep Gu Changge behind.

Ling Yuxian’s eyebrows furrowed tightly. It was their first meeting, so why did Saintess Xiyuan speak so naturally about wanting to keep him here, as though there was no hesitation at all?

Moreover, what could she want to discuss with Gu Changge? Did she perhaps already know his background?

At that moment, Ling Yuxian felt as if she and Gu Changge were already familiar with each other.

From Saintess Xiyuan’s behavior and tone, how could she resemble the aloof and transcendent figure the world saw her as?

“Since the Saintess wishes to speak to Senior Brother Gu privately, I won’t disturb you both. I’ll leave now.”

Ling Yuxian gave Gu Changge a sidelong glance, saw him nod slightly, and then coldly snorted in her heart. She turned and left the pavilion, following the maid’s lead.

Saintess Xiyuan wasn’t sure about the relationship between Ling Yuxian and Gu Changge, but seeing her behavior just now, she had some guesses in her heart.

The founder of the Yuxian Palace was once one of the most powerful beings in the world, involved in the eradication of the Dark Calamity.

And her younger sister clearly had a favorable view of Gu Changge.

Originally, through the Reincarnation Mirror’s simulations, Saintess Xiyuan had believed that the impending destruction of Xianchu Haotu and the great calamity facing the Xiyuan Civilization were connected to the remnants of the Dark Calamity.

The mysterious figure behind the Alliance to Exterminate Heaven had deep ties with the remnants of the Dark Calamity.

But from today’s events, if Gu Changge truly had something to do with the remnants of the Dark Calamity, the founder of the Yuxian Palace should have noticed by now.

Of course, there was another possibility: the founder of Yuxian Palace might not have detected Gu Changge’s true identity or origins.
