Chapter 153: The Paradise of Happiness – Remember to Call Her Beautiful

As soon as the two stepped into that “Chaos Paradise,” they felt a powerful pull. As their bodies entered, Liu Yi and July disappeared into that huge white disc…
Their bodies grew lighter, and a sensation overcame July—a feeling only those who had experienced it before could understand, for it was memory. It was the sensation of falling from great heights, just like when they fell into the secret chamber on that underground island ten years ago. White light flowed rapidly around them; nothing could be seen, only continuous descent.
July tightly grasped Liu Yi’s hand, afraid of letting go accidentally, and asked, “Scholar, is this romance?”
In that entire white space, only their two bodies floated there, yet wind blew upward from below, for it was a fall… Liu Yi wasn’t sure if he had thought it, but he blurted out, “If this is romance, it’s romance of death. We’re falling.” After saying that, he also held July’s hand tightly.
The speed increased, and the flow of light around them accelerated. Gradually, the two became blurred and lost consciousness. From afar, in that white space, they appeared to be floating hand in hand…
It was unclear how much time had passed or where they were. Finally, Liu Yi slowly opened his eyes. Bright sunlight shone on him, warm and pleasant. A gentle breeze brushed his face, bringing comfort. The first thing he saw was the blue sky—no clouds, just deep blue, as if it were an empty void…
Liu Yi moved his hand and sat up abruptly, shouting, “July…”
July, sitting nearby, quickly turned around. Seeing Liu Yi awake, she might not have expected his first words upon waking to be her name. She smiled and said, “I’m here. What’s wrong?”
Liu Yi chuckled and said, “Was I asleep? When I woke up just now, I didn’t see you, nor did I hold your hand. I thought you might have fallen off.”
July smiled and said, “I was asleep too, but I woke up before you. I was just checking out what this place was like. Since you were sleeping soundly, I didn’t wake you.”
Only then did Liu Yi realize he was sitting on grass. In an instant, the view shifted to the sky. Behind them was a forest with mountains stretching endlessly, while ahead lay an endless prairie—no boundaries, no end in sight, only greenery and strange animals on the grassland. Some were jumping, some flying, some running—rare and exotic creatures, some resembling humans, some like monsters. But they all lived alone, in pairs or threes, perhaps as a family or in groups of five, maybe as friends.
All living beings had their own ways of communicating. They would fight fairly for food until blood flowed. White mist rose from this endless prairie, but it seemed more like a tangible substance, unscattered by the wind. Looking at those grass huts, earthen mounds, wooden houses, and small stone structures of unknown origin, they formed a beautiful sight on this vast prairie…

Thin trails of smoke rose into the air. Monsters that somewhat resembled humans could use fire, and there were also larger monsters cutting wood from the trees behind them. There were all kinds of people and monsters. But July and someone like Liu Yi were absent. They seemed so small and fragile. Yet from now on, the “Chaos Immortal Realm” had two more “people”…

Liu Yi opened his mouth wide and laughed loudly, “It’s so strange and fun! Where is this? Is it your home? Look at them, haha! Everyone looks different. How ugly… I thought I encountered monsters again, but it seems they don’t seem hostile at all.”

July smiled at Liu Yi’s silly expression and said, “Alright, stop calling them ugly. In their eyes, maybe they think we’re the ugly ones. Everyone has different tastes, feelings, and concepts of beauty. You have the right to joke, but not the right to criticize.”

Liu Yi nodded and said, “I’m just joking, hehe. It’s fun. Do we live here? Will we have to leave? I feel like we’re on a journey.”

July replied, “A journey? If it’s a journey, then where is our destination? If it’s a journey, what matters is the scenery along the way and the process of traveling, right? Don’t worry about leaving or the destination. We should first get ourselves a small house, and then discuss whether to leave!”

Liu Yi nodded and said, “Mm, okay. Let’s go get some thick trees behind and build a comfortable shelter. Then we can cultivate something to harvest, haha. After that, teach me what you know so I can protect you. And then… you go plant seven-colored flowers for me.”

July nodded and said, “Mm… so many steps. Then let’s do it slowly.”

…

Time flowed like water, days and months passed by. In the blink of an eye, three years later…

A black beam of light descended from the sky and stopped at the entrance of the wooden house. With “Sorrowful Dream” retracted, Liu Yi dragged a pig-like monster that was even bigger than himself, with horns on its head and needles as long as a foot on its body. Only its tail was free of needles, and that was exactly what Liu Yi was pulling.

The wooden door opened, and July stepped out, saying, “Wow, scholar, you’re getting stronger by the day! You caught such a big guy today—enough for us to eat for a long time, haha.”

Liu Yi laughed and said, “This is all thanks to your help. If it weren’t for you teaching me those ninth-level mental techniques involving ‘Lan’ and ‘Fei’, I couldn’t have killed this spiny pig, let alone fly.”

July smiled and said, “What ‘Lan’ and ‘Fei’? It’s the ‘Lan Er Fei Na Qing’ mental technique. You scholar, who can remember everything at a glance, can’t even remember this technique now. Are you trying to deceive me? Well? Admit it!” Saying this, she poked Liu Yi’s waist.

Liu Yi ran around the spiny pig while laughing, “Okay, okay, July, stop teasing. It’s not that I’m lying to you. It’s just that the words ‘Lan’ and ‘Er’ get stuck in my throat. I haven’t forgotten them—I just can’t say them, haha! Stop it, hahaha…”

Hearing those laughs, one could tell what kind of “torture” July had inflicted on Liu Yi. As Liu Yi tried to avoid July’s hands, his right hand accidentally got pricked by the sharp thorns of a thorny plant. Despite wearing black gloves, the thorns pierced through, and a drop of black blood flowed out, landing right on the hilt of Liu Yi’s sword, “Sorrowful Dream.” In an instant, the sword emitted a red glow before disappearing, and it seemed as though the drop of blood never fell at all…

Since the two were just playing around, they paid no attention to the slight reaction on the hilt of “Sorrowful Dream.” Liu Yi felt a brief sting, but it vanished instantly—because the skin of a true demon could heal rapidly through that violent blood, at a speed that was hard to imagine…

Finally, Liu Yi let out a loud laugh as he fell backward, saying, “Haha, enough playing! July, you’ve exhausted me!” July also fell onto the green grass along with Liu Yi. Today, she was wearing a pink outfit. Before entering this fairyland, she had brought seven different colored outfits with her.

Under the setting sun, July lay flat on the green grass. Her pink outfit made her look extremely beautiful, especially her slender waist and graceful legs, which were fully displayed. Suddenly, she turned over and asked, “Scholar, am I pretty?”

Liu Yi didn’t answer her question. Hearing her ask this, he thought, “Strange… Why haven’t we aged at all in these three years since we came here? In fact, we’re getting younger!”

Hearing this, July snapped, “Hmph! Have you gotten any younger? Look at you—still full of white hair, just as you were before.”

Having spent three years with July, Liu Yi naturally knew her temper. He quickly said, “I meant you! Why are you getting younger? You’re starting to look like a fairy from legends. You’re more beautiful every day.”

Finally, hearing Liu Yi say she was beautiful, July replied, “This is a fairyland. Of course, we’re immortals here. How could we age?”

Actually, what July said wasn’t entirely wrong. As long as she continued to practice her ninth-level cultivation technique, “Lanelfina Qing,” her appearance would age normally. But the chaotic energy in this “Chaos Fairyland” was extremely strong. One of the features of “Lanelfina Qing” was its ability to continuously absorb the chaotic energy of the world—otherwise, it wouldn’t have become a cultivation technique reserved only for the leaders of the demonic sects.

Liu Yi took July’s hand and said, “Immortals? Haha, then aren’t we a pair of immortal lovers? What happiness…”

July also smiled happily. “Of course, we are immortal lovers…”
