Chapter 394 The Love and Career of a Beautiful Immortal (15)
The new immortals were sitting together, discussing various matters of the celestial realm. Before they knew it, the topic turned to the current number one god in the world—Sui Si.
"I've heard that the Supreme God Sui Si possesses extraordinary strength, and his divine essence contains boundless power, capable of changing the world with a mere gesture."
A handsome new immortal, dressed in a moon-white robe, spoke first, his eyes filled with reverence and his voice slightly raised.
"Yes, I've also heard that the hardships he endured are unimaginable to ordinary people."
A female immortal dressed in turquoise robes chimed in, nodding slightly, her expression tinged with emotion.
"Even so, after his return, he still protects all living beings in the six realms, which is truly admirable."
At this moment, an older immortal slowly shook his head, his expression solemn, and gazed at the sea of clouds outside the main hall, saying leisurely:
"You only know one side of the story, not the other."
The past of the gods is far more extensive than these.
He once had a beloved, but for various reasons, they could never see each other again. Who can understand the pain he endured?
Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent, their respect for Sui Si growing even stronger, while their curiosity about his mysterious and regretful past intensified.
The newly paved nine-tiered heavenly steps are made of ancient, cold jade, smooth and cold.
As Sui Si stepped onto it, the crisp sound of ice shattering from the past was no longer heard, leaving only silence.
He walked barefoot up the 810 steps, each step precise as if measured, carefully avoiding the frost patterns.
These patterns were left by Ran Cang during his mischievous days, but now they are regarded as ancient divine relics by the newly promoted immortal officials and are respectfully worshipped.
Sui Si's gaze was gentle yet tinged with melancholy. He sighed softly and murmured:
"You little rascal, now they treasure your 'masterpiece'. If you were still here, I wonder how proud they would be."
The tone made it seem as if Ran Cang was still beside him, tilting his head and listening to his lecture with a smile.
On the shore of Yaochi, the newly planted peach grove rustled in the breeze.
Sui Si raised his hand, and a falling peach blossom landed lightly in his palm.
In an instant, the pink petals turned into ice crystals, inside which was another wisp of Ran Cang's remnant soul; this was already the 1,300th one.
Sui Si gently embedded it between the tassels of the crown, his movements as gentle as if he were handling the most precious treasure in the world.
With each step he took, the beads on his pendant tapped softly, making a delicate sound, as if telling stories of the past.
"Don't be afraid, I will find you and bring you back."
Sui Si spoke softly to the ice crystal, his voice filled with determination and tenderness.
"Your Majesty, this is today's morning dew."
A respectful voice came from a hundred paces away. The newly ascended Rain Master held a jade bottle and knelt carefully on the ground.
Sui Si's crown tassels tilted slightly. Although he could not see, he "saw" the frost flower pattern embroidered on the young celestial official's sleeve.
The pattern was exactly the same as the one that Ran Cangcuo had embroidered on his inner garment back then, and a sense of familiarity instantly welled up in his heart.
The jade bottle slowly floated up in the void, and the new immortals all held their breath in tension.
They had all heard that this supreme being did not drink fine wine, but only accepted the purest water in the world.
But no one knows that every drop of morning dew in Sui Si's hands will be refined into ice essence, just to solidify the stardust raised when Ran Cang dissipates.
"This morning dew is still quite pure."
Sui Si spoke softly, but his thoughts drifted back to the past.
As dusk quietly descended over the Milky Way, Sui Si sat alone atop the Chonghua Palace, gazing into the distance.
The newly arrived cleaning fairies gathered together and whispered among themselves.
“Look, the Emperor comes to stroke the eaves on the east side every day at this time.”
"Yes, I wonder what's so special about that string of jade bells that seems so out of place with the rules of this Heavenly Palace."
Their voices, though soft, still reached Sui Si's ears. His hand gently stroked the string of jade bells, a slight smile playing on his lips, and he whispered:
"The gift you give is naturally the most special."
That was a jade bell offered by a mortal cultivator, carrying his memories with Ran Cang.
The night breeze gently lifted Sui Si's wide, dark sleeves, revealing a chain of ice beads on her wrist.
The newly appointed Star Lord of Fate hurried past, carrying the Book of Fate, when he was unexpectedly struck on the forehead by a falling ice bead.
He was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he hurriedly knelt down to beg for forgiveness:
"Your Majesty, please forgive me! This humble immortal truly had no intention of offending you!"
Sui Si waved his hand, his gaze falling on the ice bead, his voice somewhat ethereal:
"It's alright, these are her tears, don't be alarmed."
The ice bead slowly seeped into the Book of Fate, staining a page of vermilion calligraphy with frost flowers, as if Ran Cang was leaving her mark in another way.
The Heavenly Palace was bustling with activity during the once-every-three-hundred-years Peach Banquet.
Sui Si sat in the main seat, his crown tassels hanging low.
Suddenly, the ice beads between the crown tassels rang out in unison, the clear sound instantly attracting everyone's attention.
The newly brewed peach blossom wine quickly condensed into ice lotus in the cup, and the entire Jade Pool seemed to be shrouded in a layer of frost.
The newly arrived immortals were so frightened that they trembled all over and knelt down.
Sui Si lightly tapped the table with his fingers, and the originally noisy banquet instantly quieted down.
His gaze turned to the northwest corner, where the clumsy-looking ice lotus was the ugly form that Ran Cang had carved out in a fit of pique when he couldn't learn to transform as a child.
"Still has such a childish temper."
A hint of sadness crept into Sui Si's eyes as she spoke softly, as if time had turned back to those carefree days.
At midnight, Sui Si stood quietly at the old site of Beijiyuan.
The newly built observatory soared into the clouds, and the celestial officials surrounded it, constantly praising it as the place in the Three Realms closest to the Heavenly Dao.
Only Sui Si understood that every piece of ice brick contained the blood and bones of Ran Cang.
He climbed the steps one by one, and when he reached the nine hundredth step, starlight shimmered and condensed into a double fish pendant in his palm, the shape that Ran Cang loved most.
"Look, I still remember everything."
Sui Si murmured to himself as he looked at the double fish pendant in his hand, his voice sounding exceptionally clear in the quiet night.
When the newly appointed God of War came to pay homage with his divine halberd, Sui Si was slowly pouring the morning dew he had collected that day into the frozen lake.
The young war god was speechless, stunned by the ever-blooming frost flowers in the heart of the lake. He asked curiously:
"Your Majesty, why are these frost flowers so peculiar?"
Sui Si's gaze fell on the lake, and he calmly replied:
"Her lingering soul is locked within each flower stamen."
As soon as the words were spoken, ripples suddenly appeared on the lake's surface, and the tassels and beads of Sui Si's crown all pointed eastward, the direction in which Ran Cang looked back for the last time before disappearing.
"She's calling me."
Sui Si said in a low voice, a hint of anticipation flashing in his eyes.
The Book of Fate, which had not been turned for a century, suddenly opened a new page on this day.
Sui Si's slender fingers gently traced the blank space, and the celestial mirror reflected the barely perceptible curve of his lips.
When the new immortals saw this, they all thought that the Supreme One had finally smiled, but little did they know that he had smelled that familiar scent of frost and snow in the morning dew.
"Finally waiting for you."
Sui Si said softly, and in the dew bottle in his hand, there was an ice crystal formed from the blue eyes of Ran Cang, which had finally returned to his side after countless years.
……
Sui Si sat quietly in the dark chamber of Chonghua Palace, where many mysterious objects from the world were kept, including fragments of the Three Lives Stone.
He slowly reached out his hand, his fingertips gently tracing the fragments of the Three Lives Stone that bore the marks of time.
In an instant, the ice beads on the crown in the northwest corner burst open without warning, and the crisp cracking sound was particularly abrupt in the silent, dark room.
Sui Si paused slightly, his gaze quickly falling on the star map that Ran Cang had drawn with his Frost Soul Blood that was hanging to the side.
The star map was fading at a visible speed, and the originally intricate star trails were becoming dim and lifeless.
Those destiny lines that should have faded with time are now seemingly being drawn by a mysterious force, their ends all pointing to the Wheel of Rebirth in the deepest part of the underworld.
"what on earth is it?"
Sui Si muttered to himself, his brows furrowed, his eyes filled with doubt and worry.
"Your Majesty, this is newly obtained jade dew..."
The Imperial Physician cautiously stepped into the dark room, but before he could finish speaking, he was so shocked by the sight before him that he was speechless.
