Chapter 641: Love Above All Chapter 1
Gu Xiaoxi suddenly opened her eyes, feeling as light as air.
She looked around at the red flowers that blanketed the ground and the majestic golden palace, struggling to adapt for a moment.
Where was this?
If she remembered correctly, she should be 101 years old.
Shouldn’t she be on the brink of death?
Could it be that she had already died?
Following a path, she walked towards the grand hall.
At the entrance of the grand hall, she saw her reflection in a mirror.
Delicate features, bright eyes, and snow-white skin. Her body was full of vitality, as if in an instant, she had become twenty years old.
"Please follow me," a young girl waiting outside the palace, dressed in a skirt, led her into the palace.
There was no one else around the whole way.
Gu Xiaoxi asked the girl something, but she did not answer.
The girl took her to a beautifully set pavilion, surrounded by blooming flowers, where she also saw the rare peonies.
However, the innate sun was somewhat strange; the sunset hanging in the sky never changed.
After what felt like an hour, a man dressed in a formal suit approached her.
"Who are you?" Gu Xiaoxi quickly stood up and asked.
"I am the Underworld King!"
The man introduced himself and made a gesture inviting her to sit, "Please, take a seat!"
Gu Xiaoxi’s heart skipped a beat as she realized that she must be dead.
"The Human Emperor, the Crown Prince, and Mi Xi have all reincarnated before you. Therefore, here, we have some rules to clarify with you," said the Underworld King gravely.
Gu Xiaoxi nodded in response to his words. "Go ahead!" She somewhat knew what to expect. All she wanted to know was what exactly had happened ten thousand years ago!
"That is a secret! I don’t have the right to tell you. The Divine Monarch needs to search for a thousand years to recover the events of ten thousand years ago," the Underworld King said.
"Then what should I do?" Gu Xiaoxi had once visited Yaobi Mountain, and a thousand years of reincarnation meant living ten lifetimes.
As for the previous ten thousand years, she didn’t know what they had experienced.
The Underworld King raised his head, his gaze icy as he looked at Gu Xiaoxi, yet he said with grave sincerity, "According to the results of the previous reincarnations, what you have done is not what your mother wished to see. So, whether or not you can resolve your debts of gratitude and vengeance in the final thousand years is up to you."
"Resolve debts of gratitude and vengeance?" Gu Xiaoxi was perplexed.
"Gods are not supposed to be with humans. If you persist in your delusion, this universe will become muddied. The universe’s space, with 158.978 billion species, will all be destroyed, not just Earth, the Immortal Realm, but also the Sun Star..." The Underworld King’s tone was particularly somber.
Gu Xiaoxi felt as if it were a joke, "Stop kidding with me. I don’t have that much power. How could there be such consequences from a human being with an immortal?"
"You don’t believe it? It seems you still don’t understand what a god represents?"
The Underworld King turned around, looking towards the evening sun on the horizon, his expression grave, his voice stern, "Gods created the universe and life."
"Immortals are the adjudicators of rules and life. The Human Emperor brought wisdom to the creatures of the earth, teaching humans, rare species, animals, and 158.978 billion other species the skill to survive."
"If a god falls in love with the Human Emperor, a being known as the Demon God will emerge. If he appears, the universe will perish. Do you know that your mother, for the sake of your misdeeds, sacrificed her Divinity to the Demon God? She sent you four into Reincarnation. If you continue on with him, what will be sacrificed will not only be your mother, but the entire universe, all 158.978 billion species!"
"You’re kidding, right?" Gu Xiaoxi thought, could emotions really lead to such a terrifying consequence?
"If you want the world to perish, then treat my words as a joke," the Underworld King said bluntly, implying that her mother had given up her life to send them four into reincarnation. Their experience with emotions was intended for her and Young Master Quan to understand the true essence of feelings and not to persist in delusion.
At this moment, Gu Xiaoxi felt heavy-hearted.
She and Gu Xiaoxi had loved each other for over eighty years, and every day they spent together was happy. How could she give him up?
If love could be so easily abandoned, they would not have made such grave mistakes back then.
"Then what do you want from me?" Gu Xiaoxi asked again.
"To tell you about the rules of this lifetime," the Underworld King replied.
Gu Xiaoxi raised an eyebrow, looking at him expectantly for his next words.
"In this thousand years of reincarnation, you must repay Ya and Mi Xi for their kindness. And as for Young Master Quan..." the Underworld King made a gesture as if he was slicing his throat.
Gu Xiaoxi took a step back in shock, "Why must this be done?"
"Karma," the Underworld King answered simply, and Gu Xiaoxi’s heart chilled instantly.
"You owe the Crown Prince a wedding, owe Mi Xi genuine affection, and Quan Shaoqing owes you a life. You must do so in the next thousand years. Don’t worry, it’s not about actually dying. Instead, it’s to make him realize that love is not only about happiness but also about sorrow," the Underworld King said coldly.
Gu Xiaoxi sat down on the bench, taking a deep breath.
Indeed, immortals were heartless.
Such high and mighty words.
To kill the person she loved, even if it was only for a brief life, even if it was merely an illusion, was brutal for her.
"What if I don’t agree?" Gu Xiaoxi looked up and met the Underworld King’s gaze.
"Then let the universe be destroyed, and when that time comes, you and he, along with 158.978 billion species, will perish together."
Gu Xiaoxi inhaled sharply upon hearing this.
Between personal love and universal love, did she have a choice?
Why must there be such melodramatic affairs?
Can’t a god be with the one they love?
"Reincarnation is not a punishment, but to let you find release. We’ve granted you happiness and also inflicted pain upon you. We just hope that you can let go of your obsessions sooner! Gods can be with anyone, just not with the Emperor of Man. You must remember this."
Gu Xiaoxi’s heart instantly chilled to the depths of a valley.
Afterward, she sat in silence for a whole day and night.
The Underworld King did not disturb her.
It wasn’t until the next day that Gu Xiaoxi finally moved her fingers and said, "If I must do this, then don’t let me reincarnate with my memories."
The end of love, she thought it would be a happiness that lasted forever.
But she never expected that behind their love, such a heavy secret was hidden.
She had always been a rational person. Faced with destruction and love, she would absolutely not allow this vast world to perish.
"It seems you’ve come to terms with it. Remember, your mission is not just to be apart from him. You have to, completely stop loving him. Make him stop loving you as well."
...
Such a cruel ending!
No wonder they were cast into reincarnation ten thousand years ago...
She didn’t know what would happen next!
But she would strive to find a good outcome.
If the obsession with love could be resolved, then ten thousand years ago, it wouldn’t have led to such a disaster...
Gu Xiaoxi stayed in the Underworld for eighteen days.
The Underworld King severed all her memories of encountering Quan Shaoqing, allowing her to be reborn in another modern parallel world.
She would spend another different life with Quan Shaoqing, Ya, and Mi Xi.
As for what kind of ending that would be, no one knew.
At this moment, Gu Xiaoxi possessed seventeen years of her past life’s memories; the rest was a blank slate.
**
Gu Xiaoxi remembered she was on her way to pay respects to her mother when she was hit by a car and then died.
When her consciousness slowly recovered, she only felt utterly cold, and her head was particularly groggy.
She struggled to open her eyes, and a glaring light immediately made her vision blur.
Just then, a woman’s hand, roughly reached over and grabbed her waist.
Out of instinct, Gu Xiaoxi rolled over and kicked the woman who was fondling her away.
At that moment, she staggered to her feet, her eyes hazy as she looked around.
This appeared to be the backstage area of a large stage, with trendsetting clothes and fine jewelry laid out in the dressing room.
Surrounding her were a group of unfamiliar men and women from the West.
Her coat had already been removed, leaving her in just a small vest.
The woman she had kicked cursed in fluent language, "What are you standing around for? Hurry up and catch her to change clothes. It’s already too late to get on stage."
Gu Xiaoxi couldn’t figure out what was going on, as she didn’t have any memories of this body from her previous life.
Moreover, at this moment, her head was particularly dizzy, and she couldn’t muster any strength as a group of people crowded around her.
She could only let four women support her as they changed her into a beautiful red outfit.
Get on stage?
Gu Xiaoxi’s eyes darted around, quietly allowing them to change her clothes while she pondered what her identity was.
Could it be that she had crossed over to become a singer?
Wow, haha!
Her dream was to become an actress, make big money!
If she was reborn through crossing over and directly became a music superstar, wouldn’t she strike it rich?
Especially with this setup, it was clear that she was a superstar who had made it onto the international stage!
Five minutes later, not only had Gu Xiaoxi put on beautiful high heels, but the makeup artist also styled her into a beautiful long hairdo.
Holding up her skirt, she then looked at her flat chest, stretched out her hand in dissatisfaction, and squeezed it together, managing to create a cleavage.
Thus, with everyone in the room staring in disbelief,
She walked towards the nearby stage with a beaming smile, while the host had been urging her for a while.
The audience below was even making deafening shouts.
She walked with proud and noble steps onto the stage, ready to sing a song called "Tomorrow Will Be Better."
And backstage, those who had dressed her up were all bewildered.
"This woman, she really must have lost her mind. She’s about to be auctioned off on the black market, and she’s still so happy?"
"I heard that a very important person has come this time. If he buys her, her life will be worse than that of a dog!"
