A World Worth Protecting

1433 Chapter 1434 false pretenses (first update)

Wang Baole couldn’t tell what was wrong. This was the first time he had such thoughts. Many years later, on a rainy night in this world, Wang Baole, who everyone thought was blissful and happy.., looking at the rain falling outside, he was suddenly stunned.

“There seems to be something wrong…”Wang Baole muttered. A woman walked over from behind him. It was his wife, Wang Yiyi.

Wang Yiyi gently hugged Wang Baole from behind and buried her head in his back. She spoke softly.

“Baole, what’s Wrong?”

Wang Baole turned his head and looked at Wang Yiyi behind him. He smelled the familiar scent on her body, felt the touch of her hand when it touched his. He looked at her familiar face and shook his head.

“It’s nothing. I just feel like I’ve forgotten something…”

“Don’t think about it. You haven’t forgotten anything.”Wang Yiyi laughed softly. That laughter was very familiar to Wang baole, so he nodded.

Time passed again. One day, when it was still raining, Wang Baole, who was sleeping, suddenly woke up. He opened his eyes, looked at his wife lying beside him, and listened to the sound of the rain outside, he sat up silently and walked to the door. He stood under the eaves and looked at the rain, once again in a daze.

Something’s not right. It seems like… I heard crying. The rain seems to be tears

Wang Baole was a little frustrated. He instinctively reached out and grabbed something, as if he wanted to grab something to drink. However, he grabbed nothing. There was no ice spirit water in his storage bag.

It seemed like it had been a very, very long time since he had drunk ice spirit water.

Wang Baole looked at his empty hands and fell silent.

After a long while, he looked at the rain outside and walked out silently. He stood in the rain and walked on the streets of the city where he lived.

The place where he lived was remembered as the Holy Land of the Celestial Dipper continent. It was very, very big. Even though the rain fell, there were still many pedestrians and many shops that were open for business.

As he walked down the street, Wang Baole saw a restaurant. He was about to ignore it, but he stopped in the next moment and turned his head to look at the restaurant. After a long while, he walked closer.

“Do you have rice wine?”Wang Baole asked softly.

“Yes,”the restaurant owner answered with a smile. Soon, he took out a wine bottle and handed it to Wang Baole.

Wang Baole held the wine gourd and shook it. Then, he raised his head and took a big gulp. As the rice wine entered his throat, his eyes slowly narrowed. After a while, he put it down and muttered softly.

“It’s indeed better than ice spirit water…”

“I’ve finally remembered what’s wrong…”

“How could I have forgotten about him… how could I have stopped pursuing carefree…”

Also… Wang Yiyi’s appearance is not what I saw in this dream. Wang baole sighed softly. As he turned his head, he saw the figure of a woman holding an oil-paper umbrella amidst the dim lights not far away.

The woman was wearing Wang Yiyi’s clothes, and she exuded a familiar body scent. She let out a familiar laugh, and when the oil-paper umbrella was lifted slightly, she revealed… an unfamiliar face.

The two of them stared at each other through the rain.

When the image before Wang Baole’s eyes cracked and gradually shattered, he saw that her eyes had turned pitch-black at that moment.

In the next moment, everything vanished.

Wang Baole’s vision blurred. He was still standing at the last checkpoint he had been at. He had taken the first step in the sky above the first level.

Everything seemed to have happened during this step. Wang Baole stood there in silence for a long time.

What an intention. Wang Baole shook his head and walked forward. However, as he took the second step, his body trembled and his eyes slowly closed. After a long time, Wang Baole finally opened his eyes. There was a complicated look in his eyes.

As he took the second step, he fell into a trance once again.

This trance was different from the first time. This time, although he had suppressed the emperor, he did not choose to marry Wang Yiyi. Instead, he pursued a carefree life, becoming a carefree immortal.

He lived a carefree life without any attachments.

However, in the end, he woke up and realized that something was wrong. Only then did he walk out of this nightmare’s desire.

After a long silence, Wang Baole took a deep breath and took the third step, the fourth step, the fifth step, the sixth step..

Every step was extremely difficult. Every step, he would sink into it. Every step, he would sink into it, thinking that he had gone through everything.

During the third step, when he entered the statue and saw the emperor, he failed. He was fused with the emperor, and his consciousness sank into darkness. He could not wake up, as if he was going to sink into it forever.

Vaguely, he seemed to hear a voice calling out to him. That was the reason why he had woken up.

During the fourth step, he still failed. However, he coexisted with the emperor. He saw the Emperor leave the universe and follow the path of his previous life. He entered an unfamiliar universe, and he had some unfamiliar friends. However, in the end.., the emperor didn’t manage to find any traces of his previous life.

Even though he had regained his memories, there seemed to be an impassable barrier between them, making it difficult for him to go forward. Wang Baole tried to recall carefully and realized that the memories the emperor had regained were still blurry to him.

That was why he woke up.

On the fifth step, he succeeded again. After suppressing the emperor, he didn’t go to the immortal dipper continent. Instead, he returned to the stone stele world. He chose to live in seclusion in the federation. He lived a peaceful and peaceful life.

Wang Baole couldn’t remember how he woke up. He only remembered that at the end of his life, he suddenly felt indignant. The indignance grew stronger and stronger until it shattered everything.

As for the sixth step, he became the new emperor. He walked out of the large universe and fought in the starry skies..

He was exhausted to the extreme. He began to doubt everything. At that moment, he woke up.

Standing in the first level of the world’s intent barrier, Wang Baole’s heart was filled with exhaustion. He pondered silently for a long time before taking the seventh step.

This step seemed to be slightly different from before. He saw a figure sitting cross-legged in front of the sculpture’s forehead, staring at him.

That figure was Xuan Chen.

“I’ll ask you one last time. Have you… really thought it through? Are you going to walk into this place?”

Wang Baole was silent. After a long while, he nodded.

“No matter what the outcome is, I can accept it.”

Xuan Chen looked deeply at Wang Baole. He didn’t say anything, and his body slowly dissipated.

When his figure disappeared, Wang Baole finally stood between the eyebrows of the statue.

He was just one last step away from stepping into the statue. He would be able to see the sixth segment of the Emperor’s memories, and he would be able to see… the real emperor.

However… his previous experience made Wang Baole hesitate. He stood there and thought about it carefully, trying to determine if his desire still existed.

After a long while, Wang Baole’s eyes lit up. He had experienced many things, and he had already made a good judgment. This time… It wasn’t a loss of desire.

The answer is about to be revealed. Wang Baole was expressionless. He lifted his foot and stepped into… the center of the Emperor’s brows!
