Chapter 2540: Can’t Come Back 1

Editor: Henyee Translations

Gu Chaoyan administered the nourishment to him and anxiously awaited Zhou Huaijin’s awakening.

Initially, hope filled Gu Chaoyan’s eyes, expecting her beloved Huaijin to revive any moment.

But moments turned into minutes on Dragon Vein Mountain.

An hour passed.

Pei Yueling cast a glance at the motionless Gu Chaoyan and then at the silent sorcerer, feeling bewildered.

As an outsider, she was acutely aware that he wouldn’t awaken. The notion was implausible. Her earlier assumption had been correct. Despite proceeding in this manner, the outcome remained unchanged.

In a way, she felt somewhat relieved.

Upon presenting her spiritual root, she discerned that her life was spared. Gu Chaoyan wasn’t irrational, and she wouldn’t demand her life again.

Consequently, she had the leisure to signal the sorcerer, advising him to intervene. This ongoing situation was evidently unsustainable.

“He won’t wake up,” the sorcerer murmured into Gu Chaoyan’s ear.

Gu Chaoyan trembled, offering no response or objection. She simply shook, concealing all her grief and endurance with her back turned to them.

“Impossible,” she softly retorted, a voice so hushed that it went unheard. Nevertheless, this voice persisted, asserting, “Impossible, absolutely impossible.”

The sorcerer furrowed his brow.

He remained silent, standing by her side, seemingly awaiting her realization.

Dragon Vein Mountain held an eerie silence.

Time unfolded relentlessly, transitioning from day to night and night to day in an unending cycle.

After half a month:

Gu Chaoyan persisted in the same position, watching over the slumbering man.

Breaking his silence for the first time in half a month, the sorcerer spoke, “He won’t wake up.”

“Pei Yueling wasn’t lying. He’s just a clone, a mere manifestation of spiritual power. He doesn’t truly exist. All along, he has only been a creation of spiritual energy,” the sorcerer disclosed the harsh truth.

“If you wish for him to awaken again, find the owner of this clone. It might be the creator of this clone or the clone itself, but regardless, the person who undid the bell is the owner,” he added, offering a glimmer of hope.

Reluctant to be entirely decisive, he sought to provide Gu Chaoyan with a semblance of hope.

Gu Chaoyan promptly rose.

Sword Kinesis Flight transported her to the Yan Family, where she checked the current situation and delivered an item. Afterward, she left the Shenyou Continent and returned to the second world.

In the second world, time remained half a month later.

Awaiting their return, the people from the Demon Clan’s ancient city and the witches were present.

Upon arriving home, Gu Chaoyan addressed Pei Yueling, stating, “You’re free to leave now. Since you’ve given me your spiritual root, we are even.”

Anticipating this, Pei Yueling intended to depart and continue cultivating in the Second World. However, before leaving, she turned to the sorcerer with confusion and inquired, “Why does everything seem so coincidental?”
