Chapter 584: Chapter 293 Pei Buku

"Are... are you talking to me?"

Ran Qingchen stared incredulously at the woman before her.

She thought this was her dream mirror, just an illusion, and never expected the "Ye" in the illusion to actually converse with her.

"Look up."

Ye Zhuchan smiled serenely.

Confused, Ran Qingchen looked up.

She was shocked to discover ripples undulating slowly across the sky, the entire firmament resembling a calm ocean, or a colossal mirror.

And within the ripples, a drenched full moon was embedded in the canopy.

"This is called the Water Moon Dream Mirror."

Ye Zhuchan softly explained, "Within the Water Moon Dream Mirror, one can replay scenes from the past."

Water Moon Dream Mirror!?

Ran Qingchen was startled and then widened her eyes.

She had naturally heard of the most famous treasure of the Zhuge Family.

It was said that those who gained the mirror never met a good end.

Ye Zhuchan gently picked up a lock of Ran Qingchen’s hair and caressed it between her fingers: "I should be the only one in this world, who barely struggled through the ten trials of the nightmare."

Ran Qingchen’s mind was shaken.

According to the records, no one had ever successfully conquered the nightmare.

This woman was simply too demonically gifted.

Ye Zhuchan laughed, "Originally, I deceived someone to obtain the Water Moon Dream Mirror to prevent the Emperor from controlling Brother Jiang. However, I tried to venture through the Water Moon Dream Nightmare first to see if I could give Brother Jiang some early experience.

Unfortunately, I overestimated the Water Moon Dream Nightmare. I figured out its secret, and it took me only a month to easily overcome nine levels. It was quite boring.

The last level was a bit difficult, but I barely made it through."

Moreover, I could have released the Demon Venerable.

But I didn’t do that; I just bound her and Brother Jiang together, so only Brother Jiang could summon her.

To this day, that Demon Venerable still thinks that once Brother Jiang conquers the ten trials, she will be able to come out. Little does she know, I have already made Brother Jiang... her master."

Ran Qingchen frowned: "If there is a Water Moon Dream Mirror inside Jiang Mo, then he..."

"He won’t be in any danger."

Ye Zhuchan knew what the other was worried about, combed Ran Qingchen’s hair with a smile, and reassured, "Because even if he loses in the trials, there won’t be any punishment."

Ran Qingchen realized she was too concerned about Jiang Mo, and snorted coldly: "His life or death is none of my business."

Ye Zhuchan didn’t puncture the woman’s sentiment and looking up at the gradually sinking sunset, she said, "In fact, Jiang’s third trial of the Water Moon Dream Mirror had already started. It is this wedding.

He could have foreseen everything, could have made amends beforehand, could have made everyone happy. But I didn’t let him go through this third trial, so I erased the challenge of the third trial."

Ran Qingchen looked at her in surprise: "Why?"

Ye Zhuchan’s mouth curved slightly, her expression both mocking and serious:

"Qingchen, life is always full of regrets, so you’ll see that many times people wish they could go back to the past, to mend those regrets.

But some regrets, if you mend them, they might become your greatest regrets. Because you cannot see the truth, all you can do is deceive yourself.

I didn’t let Brother Jiang foresee the wedding so that he, you, Hong’er... can see your true feelings, instead of planning, disguising, or preventing them beforehand.

You’ve seen the result for yourself, Qingchen... in Brother Jiang’s heart, you are not as important as Hong’er."

Ran Qingchen’s face turned pale, and she clenched her fists again.

The woman’s words were like a knife, stripping away the self-deceiving fantasy at the bottom of her heart.

Ye Zhuchan’s lips parted slightly, and she asked again:

"So, do you admit defeat?"

"Why the hell would I admit defeat!"

Ran Qingchen’s suppressed emotions burst forth, her eyes reddening as she angrily said, "Why should I admit defeat? What reason is there for me to concede!?"

Ye Zhuchan calmly watched her: "Then what can you do?"

Ran Qingchen was speechless.

Listening to the sounds of the amorous couple teasing each other inside the house, Ran Qingchen slowly sat down on the ground, tears falling like beads on a string, muttering to herself:

"Why should I admit defeat... why..."

Ye Zhuchan gently stroked the woman’s head and spoke softly:

"Any naivety at any time will await punishment. Hong’er’s initial naivety lost her lover. Brother Jiang’s naivety let him grasp at nothing.

Your naivety in running away from the wedding also led you to ultimately lose your lover. I, too, have paid a huge price for my past naivety..."

"No, that’s not it, at that time... at that time..."

Ran Qingchen vigorously shook her head, trying to deny it, but she couldn’t articulate her words.

Ye Zhuchan’s tone was elusive: "They say the Water Moon Dream Mirror can reverse time, allowing you to go back and mend all regrets. But when you really want to do it, you’ll find that every so-called amendment will leave behind an equivocal punishment."

Ye Zhuchan looked down at the desolate and lonely woman, her gaze soft: "If you refuse to admit defeat, then fight for it. There are many ways to fight, such as killing the other women Brother Jiang likes, including myself.

For instance, binding him firmly to your side, spending a lifetime making him stay with you.

Or, you could completely abandon this relationship, making him suffer for a lifetime, giving him punishment. After all, you know very well, he does like you.

Or else..."

Ye Zhuchan paused, glanced at the sky with a smile, and said, "Forget it, I won’t tell you so much, or else I really will become the bad guy.

I’ll leave the Water Moon Dream Mirror with you. If you’re interested, you can watch their time together."
