Chapter 2045: The Day of Her Twentieth Birthday
Mo Qingcheng drank a lot, she also said many things. She simply trusted Qin Wentian a lot. Maybe she didn’t know this, this was because of their fate of two lifetimes. In her previous lifetime, this young man before her eyes was the person she loved most. Even now, meeting him again after reincarnation, she still felt a sense of innate closeness to him.
At this moment, Mo Qingcheng inclined her head. Her face was red, she smiled at Qin Wentian, “Strange uncle, do you feel I should marry him?”
“If you don’t want to, just reject it.” Qin Wentian replied.
“But my parents and elders want me to marry him. Also, they have treated me very well. The hope of the clan is all on my shoulders.” Mo Qingcheng spoke in a daze.
“You don’t need to marry someone you don’t like because of this and cast a shadow over your own heart. In this world, there’s no one who can force you to do anything you don’t want to.” Qin Wentian seriously spoke.
When Mo Qingcheng saw how serious he looked, she giggled in a silly manner. She leaned forward, nearing Qin Wentian’s handsome face. Her beautiful cheeks rested against his. Qin Wentian could clearly sense her breathing, as well as the faint natural fragrance from her.
“But if I don’t marry him, who should I marry? Will you marry me?” Mo Qingcheng laughed in a silly manner, like she was sprouting the truth after being drunk. Staring at her pure and beautiful face, Qin Wentian started. He couldn’t be calm at all. He was shouting in his heart, “I will marry you!”
However, he didn’t say it out loud. There were two more years. After two years, Qingcheng would recover her memories. This was decreed by fate. She brought her obsession into reincarnation as she made the vow. He would continue to wait.
“I’m just teasing you.” Mo Qingcheng laughed, brushing her earlier words aside. She drank another cup of wine and continued, “However, strange uncle you are the most good-looking person I’ve ever met and you seem like you don’t age at all. What genius of an immortal sect? How can he be better looking than strange uncle? In the future, the person I want to marry definitely has to be as good-looking as strange uncle and dotes on me as much as you. In addition, he would have to summon true dragons and divine phoenixes, arrange a grand procession for ten thousand miles, with rainbows filling the skies as well as having many phenomenons manifesting in the heavens. The entire world would be stunned. How can a genius from an immortal sect compare?”
When Qin Wentian heard Mo Qingcheng’s nonsensical words, he silently mused in his heart, “Silly lass, this was the scene when I married you and Qing`er in your past life.”
“He definitely will.” Qin Wentian seriously nodded his head, burying her words in his heart.
“Really?” Mo Qingcheng glanced at Qin Wentian, “Strange uncle, you are lying to make me happy again, right?”
“Nope, it’s the truth. In the future, the person who marries you would surely arrange for a grand procession, even the upper worlds would be notified and all heavenly deities and divine beasts would attend. Phenomenons would appear in the sky, the nine heavenly layers would resonate together and all the supreme experts from all the immortal realms would come by to offer their congratulations.” Qin Wentian seriously spoke.
Qin Wentian’s words caused Mo Qingcheng to start. After that, she laughed and pointed her little finger at Qin Wentian. “Strange uncle, you are making me happy again. How could there be someone so powerful as what you said?”
“Qingcheng.” At this moment, a voice drifted in from outside, interrupting her. Someone called out, “Qingcheng, your parents and elders are still waiting to celebrate your birthday for you. Why did you run out all of a sudden?”
After speaking, a middle-aged man pushed the door to the hut open, there were several people behind him. Qin Wentian wasn’t surprised, he naturally long sensed the arrival of these people.
“Strange uncle, I have to go back now. The words you said earlier might only come true in my dreams.” Mo Qingcheng giggled in a silly manner. After that, she patted Little Rascal on his head and spoke with some reluctance, “Little Rascal, I have to leave now.”
After speaking, she turned and left the hut.
After Mo Qingcheng left, her second uncle didn’t leave straight away. His gaze landed on Qin Wentian and his eyes were as cold as swords.
“I don’t know what purpose you have for hanging around here all these years, I also don’t care about your identity. But now, Qingcheng has already grown up and is a disciple of an immortal sect. She will be married to a monstrous genius. It’s best that you don’t meet her again in the future and affect her reputation.” He coldly stared at this extremely good-looking young man before him. He felt very curious about Qin Wentian, why didn’t he age? Clearly, Qin Wentian didn’t have the aura of a cultivator and seemed like a mortal yet his demeanor was extraordinary.
But no matter what and no matter who Qin Wentian was, they cannot allow Qingcheng to mix with him anymore. He was too good-looking and there wasn’t anyone around Qingcheng who was as good-looking as him. He also wouldn’t age as well. Mo Qingcheng was now at the age where the first awakening of love would usually occur. He mustn’t allow her to take a wrong step. This was especially so now that she joined an immortal sect, she would have a chance to head to the upper worlds and acknowledge an immortal as her master. Also, she would be married to a peak genius character, that genius was the descendant of an immortal as well. How could he allow Qin Wentian to spoil things?
Qin Wentian inclined his head and stared at the man before him. Now, there was actually someone who dared to speak to him in this manner. It was somewhat laughable. But no matter what, this man was Qingcheng’s second uncle in this lifetime. Given Qin Wentian’s current state of heart, there was really no need for him to be bothered because of a sentence from this person. He merely calmly replied, “You can leave now.”
“Hmph. You better engrave my words into your heart.” Mo Qingcheng’s second uncle threatened before leaving the tiny hut.
Qin Wentian calmly watched as he left. After that, a faint smile appeared on his face. Qingcheng was now already at the age where she could marry. After accompanying her for eighteen years, she finally grew up.
…
After leaving the tiny hut where Qin Wentian stayed in, Mo Qingcheng rode her immortal crane and flew through the air. Her face was still red. The gentle wind blew on her, and unknowingly, her eyes became wet.
“Strange uncle, I naturally don’t want to marry him. Because, I already have someone I like.” Mo Qingcheng silently spoke in her heart.
“I heard the people in my clan saying that ever since I was born, you have been waiting outside the Mo Residence like you were waiting for my birth. For many years after that, you were there every day, watching as I grew up bit by bit, accompanying me to play. You would always be so patient and didn’t mind me being mischievous. You wouldn’t be angry when I rode on your shoulders, and the time you accompanied me is even longer compared to my parents. When you look at me, your gaze is so warm and tender. I don’t know why but I’ve always felt a sense of familiarity when I see you. It feels like we know each other in our previous lives. When I looked into your eyes, I can feel a sense of safety. It’s like no matter what and when, you would always be by my side, watching out for me, protecting me.
“Now, I’ve finally grown up and you didn’t age at all. You are as good-looking as you are then. Do you know that the person I want to marry is none other than you.
“You say that in the future, the person who marries me would surely arrange for a grand procession, even the upper worlds would be notified and all heavenly deities and divine beasts would attend. Phenomenons would appear in the sky, the nine heavenly layers would resonate and all the supreme experts would come by to offer their congratulations. However, I don’t want any of this. I only want the person who marries me to be you.”
“But how can I do this? Sister immortal is so kind and beautiful. You already have such a warm family, how can I destroy the relationship you have with her? I cannot do this.”
As she continued thinking, Mo Qingcheng’s tears fell like rain. Tear stains had long covered her face and her clothes were wet from her tears.
The love of two lifetimes, who could understand? Who would know of Qingcheng’s heart?
After arriving at the Mo Residence, Mo Qingcheng wiped her tears away. A smile appeared on her face as she silently mused, “Strange uncle, you told me to live my life happily. I will be strong, I cannot keep thinking about you anymore. I will definitely try to pass my days happily. I know you will be happy if you see that I’m happy. In the future, even if I’m unhappy, I will silently hide the unhappy things away in my heart and only allow you to see my happy side. By doing so, I’m sure you will be happy.”
When she thought of this, Mo Qingcheng smiled and entered the Mo Residence.
The Mo Residence celebrated her birthday for her. She told the Mo Residence that she temporarily didn’t wish to marry anyone. When she was twenty, she will decide again. The news circulated out, the people of the immortal sect also didn’t force her. After all, given her talent, she would surely become an immortal in the future. Although the people of the Mo Clan wished for her to agree now, they wouldn’t force her either.
Not long after, news from the immortal sect circulated to the Mo Residence. Two years later, there would be an immortal from the upper worlds personally descending here. That immortal would accept Mo Qingcheng as a personal disciple during her twentieth birthday.
Other than that, the descendant of that immortal, the genius of the immortal sect would also propose officially to Mo Qingcheng on that day, preparing to marry her.
When the news spread, everyone in the Mo Residence was cheering. An immortal from an upper world, the Azure Mystic Immortal Realms, would personally descend to accept Mo Qingcheng as a personal disciple. What glory was this? The Mo Clan in this tiny city would surely ascend to the heavens from now on.
And as the news circulated, many major clans within the country went to pay a visit to the Mo Clan. These clans were much stronger than the Mo Clan but all of them were extremely respectful, causing everyone in the Mo Clan to feel extremely satisfied, fulfilling their vanity. To them, there was no more suspense with regards to the marriage proposal two years later.
However, from then on, Mo Qingcheng rarely ventured out. She spent the majority of her time cultivating because only with a powerful cultivation could she control her own fate. Strength was the key everywhere in the world.
In fact, she also rarely visited her strange uncle.
Naturally, Qin Wentian was still silently watching over her and everything around her.
Time slowly passed, the date of two years got increasingly closer. Qin Wentian’s state of heart wasn’t able to remain calm. This naturally wasn’t because of the marriage proposal by the immortal sect. To him, that was simply an insignificant matter.
The reason for his heart being unable to calm down was because Qingcheng would soon return. When she turns twenty, her memories would be recovered.
“Strange uncle.” Seven days before Mo Qingcheng’s birthday, Mo Qingcheng set out and came to the tiny hut Qin Wentian was residing in. As she looked at the young man seated outside the hut, she giggled, “Strange uncle, you have not aged at all.”
“You won’t age as well.” Qin Wentian smiled.
“Strange uncle, don’t lie to me.” Mo Qingcheng mischievously glared at Qin Wentian. After that, she continued, “Strange uncle, I came here to tell you that seven days later, there would be an immortal from an upper world, the Azure Mystic Immortal Realms, coming to take me as a disciple. Back then when I mentioned to you about that genius of the immortal sect proposing to me, I gradually discovered that there’s nothing bad about him. His talent is first-rate and he is handsome and graceful. He’s not too bad at all. It’s fine that I marry him I guess. In any case, I will be very happy.”
Qin Wentian didn’t reply, he merely quietly looked into Mo Qingcheng’s eyes. Her gaze showed hints of evasion.
“Strange uncle, can you promise me one thing?” Mo Qingcheng asked.
“Speak.” Qin Wentian nodded.
“On that day, you have to come and see me okay?” Mo Qingcheng was somewhat nervous as she stared at Qin Wentian.
“I will.” Qin Wentian seriously nodded his head. Mo Qingcheng left happily but Qin Wentian knew that when she turned around, she was no longer as happy as she presented herself before him.
“Silly lass.” Qin Wentian softly spoke. How could Mo Qingcheng hide her thoughts from him? Finally, only seven days were left.
Qin Wentian stood up, he inclined his head and his gaze penetrated through the nine heavenly layers. His divine sense enveloped boundless space and at this moment, countless people in the Godking Palace felt the presence of this divine sense. They all knew who this divine sense belonged to.
“There are seven more days. Make the necessary arrangements.” A voice rang out within the Godking Palace. Countless people felt their hearts trembling but after that, many people had smiles on their faces. Twenty years, they had waited a whole twenty years. Was she finally going to return?
