Chapter 1274: Peak of the Cloud Sea, Give Her To Me

Wang Lin couldn't guess what kind of strange mutation had occurred in Tuo Sen that caused him to abandon his pursuit and flee in a hurry. The last image Wang Lin had of Tuo Sen in his memory was one of the star points in his glabella emitting a dazzling light.

In the Primordial Stars, amidst a brilliant starry sky, ripples spread out like water, gently undulating, like ripples in a lover's heart, gradually fading into the distance.

At the center of those ripples, Wang Lin stumbled out, his face pale. The moment he appeared, he immediately raised his right hand and grabbed at the Void Realm, causing a storage rift to appear in front of him. He held Li Qianmei's closed-eyed delicate body in his arms.

Li Qianmei's expression grew even more withered and faded.

Earlier, when Tuo Sen was pursuing him, Wang Lin, fearing Li Qianmei might get hurt, separated a portion of his vital Qi to envelop her and sent her into the storage rift. Under the continuous sustenance of that vital Qi, which transformed into the Divine Ability of Time, Li Qianmei remained unharmed during Wang Lin's fated battle with Tuo Sen.

However, being inside the storage rift was not as good as being by Wang Lin's side. In just the short duration of the battle, Li Qianmei's vitality had dissipated significantly.

Gazing at Li Qianmei's haggard face, Wang Lin's heart ached with pain and sorrow, just as he had promised Li Muwan back then that even if Heaven decreed her death, he would snatch her back. He had also promised Li Qianmei that he would exhaust all his efforts and never allow her to vanish from this world!

This was his promise, a man's promise.

Gently embracing Li Qianmei with his right hand, Wang Lin ignored his injuries and continuously circulated his vital Qi, transforming it into the Divine Ability of Time, spreading it throughout Li Qianmei's body to nourish her mind and vitality.

The starry sky was silent, without a single sound. The entire world, at this moment, quietly darkened. Only these two, a man and a woman, flew silently forward in this tranquil starry sky.

Wang Lin placed the ancient god's half-finger bone into his storage space. He had no time to study it in detail. Even the white-haired elder of the Moon Clan, who was wrapped by the Kunji Whip, was similarly sealed by Wang Lin using the Kunji Whip as a Seal, sealing the elder's entire body and placing him into the storage space.

In this quiet starry sky, Wang Lin didn't want anything to disturb him now. He just wanted to silently accompany Li Qianmei, sending her to Daoist Blue Dream, or rather, sending Li Qianmei for the last time… "When I leave… you must send me off…" Li Qianmei's voice, faintly drifting from ten years ago, echoed in Wang Lin's ears.

Now, Wang Lin was fulfilling that promise from back then, sending off Li Qianmei.

The beauty of the starry sky lies not in its brilliant nebulae, nor in the occasional meteorites, but in its ultimate tranquility. In this tranquility, one can silently count their loneliness and solitude, experiencing the coldness as if only they remain in this world… Holding Li Qianmei, Wang Lin's eyes showed a soft light as he sped forward, faster and faster, towards the Blue Silk Clan, where Daoist Blue Dream was located in his memory.

Starlight draped over him and her, as if silently accompanying them on their final journey. Li Qianmei's weakness grew heavier and heavier, and the Divine Ability of Time Wang Lin infused into her body also increased.

As the two continued their journey through the starry sky, with Shrinking the Ground into an Inch integrated into the world, the distance gradually closed. The Star Domain where the Blue Silk Clan was located was relatively remote. Wang Lin silently pressed on through the vast sea of stars.

The Blue Silk Clan is one of the few rare clans in the Primordial Stars that are not bloodthirsty. Just like their name, the hair of their clan members is all blue.

Blue, like sorrow and melancholy, permeates the depths of every Blue Silk Clan member's Soul. Regarding Spells and Divine Abilities, and cultivating the Dao, Blue Silk Clan members do not seem to possess high talent. Throughout history, not many powerful Cultivators have emerged, with the exception of Daoist Blue Dream, who is renowned throughout the Primordial Stars.

Before Daoist Blue Dream became famous in the Primordial Stars, the Blue Silk Clan was a very small clan. Although its members did not have high aptitude for cultivating the Dao, they delved deeply into auxiliary arts such as music, Alchemy, and Artifact Refining. Especially music, which almost reached the Peak of sound.

Every member of the Blue Silk Clan is a Great Master in music. Similarly, the Blue Silk Clan is a beautiful clan; its members, both male and female, are all exceptionally handsome.

Because of all these things, after countless years of proliferation, the Blue Silk Clan gradually became the preferred choice for concubines and male favorites of some great clans.

For the Blue Silk Clan, this was a tragedy and a wound. Like their blue hair, this sorrow permeated their hearts, lingering indefinitely, giving the women of the Blue Silk Clan a unique beauty, and similarly for the men of the Blue Silk Clan.

Their music no longer held joy; instead, it was filled with the sorrow that permeated their hearts, expressed through their melodies, becoming an appendage to the great clans of the Primordial Stars.

They had no freedom; every Blue Silk Clan member would be taken away before reaching adulthood, their life and death not their own, and after leaving, they would never be able to return home in this life.

All of this changed dramatically with the rise of Daoist Blue Dream!

Daoist Blue Dream was the most talented person in the Blue Silk Clan for countless years. Legends about him continuously circulated throughout the entire Primordial Stars… In the Primordial Stars, when Daoist Blue Dream is mentioned, the first thing that often comes to mind is not his power, but his deep affection. Daoist Blue Dream only loved one woman in his entire life.

That was the wound in his heart, the sorrow in his heart, accompanying him through the years.

Rumor has it that it was precisely because of Daoist Blue Dream's affection that he reached his current stage, becoming one of the Five Venerables of the Primordial, and even the Venerable Master was quite wary of him!

The Blue Silk Clan, due to Daoist Blue Dream, became one of the great clans of the Primordial Stars, occupying a vast Star Domain. However, the nature of the Blue Silk Clan did not change because of this. They still quietly resided in this enormous Star Domain, and the sorrow in their music gradually dissipated, replaced by joy.

Their happiness was obtained under the protection of Daoist Blue Dream. In the Blue Silk Clan, Daoist Blue Dream was a deity, revered by the entire Blue Silk Clan.

The Blue Mountain where he resided year-round became the Holy Land of the Blue Silk Clan! However, compared to the happiness of the entire Blue Silk Clan, the faint sorrow contained in the music that occasionally drifted from Blue Mountain was subtle and would never dissipate.

Like Daoist Blue Dream's memory, that melancholic taste became eternal.

At this moment, on that Blue Mountain, a very ordinary dwelling swayed in the wind. Inside, a middle-aged man dressed in blue robes gazed at the guqin in front of him. After a long while, he slowly raised his head.

His appearance could make all men in the world pale in comparison; even women would dim in his presence. His handsomeness seemed out of place in this world.

However, the fatigue on his face and the reminiscence in his eyes permeated his entire being with a melancholic aura, making him appear slightly aged.

He had a head of blue hair, but at his temples, white strands had sprouted, as if narrating his unhappiness over countless years.

The middle-aged man's eyes revealed sorrow. He silently lowered his head, gazing at the guqin in front of him, and slowly caressed it with both hands.

After a long while, the door of the dwelling was silently opened, and a graceful woman walked in.

This woman was very beautiful, dressed in pink clothes, and she gently approached.

"You… still can't forget her, can you…?" The woman silently sat beside him and whispered.

The middle-aged man did not speak, nor did he look up, merely caressing the guqin, the reminiscence in his eyes growing even more sorrowful.

"It's been a long time, and she's already dead. You… why must you be like this!" The woman bit her lower lip, gazing at the man with a complex expression.

"She's not dead!" The middle-aged man looked up, his gaze like lightning, falling upon the woman.

"But what's the difference between her now and being dead? She's already dead!" The woman stared blankly at the man, her expression revealing bitterness.

The middle-aged man fell silent. After a long while, he stood up and calmly said, "Your sister, she's not dead!"

Crystalline tears shimmered in the woman's eyes.

The middle-aged man sighed, pushed open the door of the dwelling, and walked out. Gazing at the setting sun gradually descending on the distant horizon, he took a step forward, and his entire being emitted a soft blue glow, disappearing into the world.

The Star Domain where the Blue Silk Clan was located was extremely vast. At this moment, on the edge of this Star Domain, a woman dressed in white robes walked step by step with a calm expression. She had followed Wang Lin all the way here.

Just as she was about to enter the Blue Silk Clan's Star Domain, the white-robed woman paused, stopping her steps, and calmly looked ahead.

In the starry sky in front of her, without a sound, blue light flickered. It was the middle-aged man who had disappeared on Blue Mountain, emerging from the blue light.

"Scram!"

The middle-aged man's gaze was icy cold; he only uttered one word.

The white-robed woman remained silent, her expression unchanged, not affected by that single word.

"He has already been chosen; you cannot protect him." After a long while, the white-robed woman spoke calmly.

"Scram!!!" The middle-aged man's eyes suddenly flashed with killing intent. His voice was calm, but an indescribable aura burst forth, rushing towards the white-robed woman. In an instant, the entire starry sky and world darkened, and a realm of absolute killing intent permeated the air!

The white-robed woman's pupils constricted. She raised her right hand and slapped forward, her body retreating gracefully.

"He always has to come out." The woman's voice remained calm as she gradually retreated further and further, disappearing into the starry sky.

After an unknown duration of traversing this starry sky, on this day, Wang Lin, with Li Qianmei, arrived at this beautiful Blue Silk Clan, at the place where Daoist Blue Dream resided, at Li Qianmei's home… The vast starry sky, as Wang Lin journeyed, gradually became more and more brilliant. The Star Domain where the Blue Silk Clan was located was extremely beautiful; even the Cultivation Planets glowed with a blue hue, like starlight, softly radiating far and wide.

"Qianmei, we've arrived…" Wang Lin looked down at Li Qianmei, who was in his arms, her eyes closed as if asleep, and spoke softly.

Just then, the Star Domain where the Blue Silk Clan was located suddenly burst forth with endless blue light. Beneath the shroud of that blue light, a deep voice echoed throughout the world.

"Give her to me!"
