Above the Great Dao

Chapter 1170 540: Grandpa and Grandma (Part 2)

Little Dun Fairy stopped her steps, thinking to herself: "Listening to the old man's stories from the past won't delay my departure."

Chen Yindou said, "Wanqing, I have already let go. I came here risking my life today to apologize to you. It's my fault for betraying your love..."

Gong Wanqing chuckled, "Chen Yindou, have you really let go? You betrayed me at the time I believed in you the most, fell in love with my maid, and left me to elope with her. Do you think I would let go?"

Little Dun Fairy honestly came to Wen Wuyu's side, the two women's bodies leaned against each other, listening.

Chen Yindou was silent for a moment, then said, "Wanqing, what happened back then was my mistake."

"You were not wrong, I was blind."

Gong Wanqing sneered, "I thought I had found a lifelong lover, a companion to journey through life together, exploring the mysteries of Daoist skill. But I didn't expect that all I got in return was unrequited love. Chen Yindou, how am I inferior to that low maid? Why do you love her instead of me? I am the mistress of Luohua Palace, and she is just a servant!"

Wen Wuyu was so excited she trembled, a voice shouted loudly in her heart: "There's another person involved!"

Chen Yindou continued his silence, then after a while said, "Wanqing, I have never been troubled by love desires in my life. I've always been immersed in the mysteries of Daoist skill, lost in exploring the ancient times. I've met many like-minded women, outstanding and smart. They are so beautiful, their hearts pure and clear, and it was joyful to be with them. I am fortunate. But unfortunately, every time I wanted to fly as a pair with them, I was rejected."

His expression dimmed.

The Lady Ling Su from the Heavenly Master Mansion refused him, saying she couldn't betray the Heavenly Master Mansion.

Qiongyang Ancestor didn't leave Taihua Qingyang Palace with him; their affection was not as important as the Dao legacy in Qiongyang Ancestor's heart.

Li Huazhi from the Li Family tried to give up everything to follow him, but regretted it and returned to the Li Family due to her brother's obstruction.

Nun Huiyin treated their relationship as a game of practice, Zhang Qiaoxi was unwilling to let him leave the Zhang family, intending to break his legs and imprison him...

As for Lady Hua Li, hers were more of an unrequited secret affection.

...

Chen Yindou seemed to lead a life of romance, but no woman ever completely trusted him, entrusting him with her heart.

"Until I met you at Despair Slope, my gaze was drawn to you."

Chen Yindou said, "I originally thought you were the person I was searching for in this life, but as I got to know you, I found I had no desire for you. Yet I was involuntarily attracted to the maid who always loved to laugh by your side."

Gong Wanqing gritted her teeth, grinding them with anger, coldly stating: "She's a despicable woman! A servant! Lower class! You love her, it shows you are also a despicable man! A servant! Lower class!"

Chen Yindou was indifferent, the tenderness in his voice was not deliberate, but natural, the tone filled with love was not a pretense: "She indeed is a maid, a lower class person, but in my eyes, she is nobler than you, nobler than any Holy Daughter of the Holy Land, more noble than daughters of powerful Families. With her, I've never felt so relaxed and happy, her eyes contain only me..."

"Stop talking!"

Gong Wanqing slapped his face, making Chen Yindou's one side of the face bloodied and flesh torn.

Little Dun Fairy and Wen Wuyu's hearts skipped a beat, only then noticing that Chen Yindou's limbs were all bound by the Dragon-locking Whip.

That Dragon-locking Whip is an instrument covered in sharp barbs, that once wielded, could even lock a slippery Jiao Long, the barbs piercing deeply into the Jiao Long's body, rendering it immobile.

And Chen Yindou was bound by four Dragon-locking Whips on his limbs, tied to the Jade Couch, the barbs embedded in his flesh, locking any transformation of his, leaving him powerless to resist!

Yet Chen Yindou continued, his tone growing more tender: "When I'm with you, my eyes see only her, when discussing Daoist skill with you, my mind is still on her. Whenever she smiles at me, I am satisfied."

"Despicable!"

Gong Wanqing was furious, stepping on his chest, yelling, "I told you to stop talking!"

Chen Yindou coughed up blood from her stepping on him, still smiling and saying, "For the first time I realized, the Daoist skill I've pursued all my life is not so important, the truth behind the fall of the True King Era I've sought is also not that important. For the first time, I thought I could give up on Daoist skill, on the truth, to accompany this girl for a lifetime. Being an ordinary person would be good too."

Gong Wanqing lifted her foot, stepping on his face to prevent him from speaking further: "You are humiliating me, using this despicable maid to humiliate me!"

Chen Yindou turned his head slightly, smiling: "She is not a despicable maid, she is the one I love most. She is carrying my child, and intends to escape from Despair Slope with me."

Gong Wanqing was furious and mad with hatred, stepping heavily on his head, stopping him from speaking further, frenziedly saying: "In what way is she better than me? Why would you rather choose a despicable maid and not choose me?"

Chen Yindou coughed out some broken teeth, laughing: "She is not as beautiful as you, nor as intelligent. Her talent and understanding don't match up to yours. You could be my Daoist companion, she can't, she can only quietly listen without interrupting. But I just like her, for no reason at all."

His tone shifted, softly saying: "Wanqing, actually we have always been grateful to you, on the day we escaped, thanks to your intervention, we were able to fend off Xue the Immortal."

Gong Wanqing, initially overwhelmed by rage, suddenly calmed upon hearing this, a faint smile appeared on her face, growing larger, eventually bursting into giggles.
