Keyboard Immortal - Chapter 2813

Chapter 1326 Disappearance

Zu An was both embarrassed and overjoyed, and immediately pulled her into his arms: “Chu Yan, it’s so good that you’re alright!”

Chu Chu Yan hugged him tightly back. Although they had met occasionally under the Bridge of Helplessness, they had actually been separated for far too long.

They were once a young couple, but after one separation, they were worlds apart. She was transported to another timeline, becoming a Snow Maiden and losing her memories. After regaining her memories, she had to endure a thousand years of separation under the Bridge of Helplessness to save her lover.

These past few days, she had watched Zu An search everywhere for a way to save her, and now that he had finally succeeded, she could imagine the hardships he had endured, even though he hadn’t spoken of them.

The two hugged each other tightly, expressing their longing for each other.

Listening to her lover recount his experiences in the Dreamland, Chu Chu Yan couldn’t help but sigh: “Zu, you always manage to encounter so many miraculous things. Only you could have resolved such a dangerous situation.”

“Just lucky,” Zu An replied, thankful. A slight misstep could have led to utter destruction.

“This isn’t just luck,” Chu Chuyan said, her eyes filled with tenderness and admiration as she looked at him. “By the way, you said that Miss Tingxue looks just like Master?”

“Yeah, I was startled at first, thinking she was Xue… cough cough, where’s your Master?”

Seeing that he almost let something slip, Chu Chuyan felt like she was watching a show, but she didn’t expose him. “Azu, I want to see Master.”

“Alright, you’ve regained your freedom, you should definitely tell her as soon as possible.” Zu An also missed Yan Xuehen a little. His divine sense swept across the entire Netherworld, and he felt something was off.

However, he was filled with joy at the moment and didn’t think about it too much.

Holding Chu Chuyan’s slender waist, Zu An teleported directly to Baiyujing.

Back in the cultivation world, he was a god in this world, able to do many things that he couldn’t do in ordinary times.

When they saw his arrival, the disciples of Baiyujing all had strange expressions. Nowadays, there were very few people in the world who didn’t know Zu An, let alone the rumors that had circulated about him with their sect leader.

Many people even had an urge to ask him what was going on.

Chu Chuyan was somewhat surprised: “I didn’t expect Baiyujing to have developed to this extent.”

The disciples she saw along the way were all much more powerful than when she was in the sect, but she felt that a long time had passed, so she didn’t pay much attention.

Zu An, however, sensed something was wrong. The disciples’ cultivation had improved too quickly. Could it be that Yan Xuehen had been diligently teaching and training them recently?

Moreover, there seemed to be far fewer disciples in Baiyujing than before.

They quickly explained their purpose, and when they asked to see Yan Xuehen, the disciple who came out to greet them replied, “Master Yan went to the temple.”

“The temple?” Zu An was taken aback, and even Chu Chuyan was somewhat puzzled. What kind of temple was there in this world?

After some questioning, Zu An finally learned what the temple was. It turned out that not long after he set off for the Dreamland, some mysterious forces suddenly appeared in this world, and everyone learned that there were so-called true gods.

The power of the true gods was projected into the cultivation world, quickly forming their own temples. As long as one successfully entered a temple and gained recognition, one could receive the power bestowed by the true gods.

At first, everyone was skeptical, but because of the chaos caused by the Shadow Tower, they learned of the existence of the God of Annihilation.

The power displayed by the believers who possessed the power of Annihilation aroused envy in many. The thirst for power ultimately overcame their concerns, and gradually, people began to head towards those temples.

When someone emerged from the temple with a dramatic change in strength, the whole world went crazy. After all, for so many years, cultivators had sought immortality, but had been stuck at the Earth Immortal level. Now, they had finally witnessed a higher level of power; who wouldn’t be tempted?

Thus, more and more people entered various temples, and everyone’s strength began to advance by leaps and bounds.

As the leader of the righteous path, Yan Xuehen naturally needed to investigate what these temples were all about. He was then favored by a certain True God and became a candidate divine messenger, truly the envy of everyone.

Zu An was both surprised and worried: “Which true god has taken a liking to her?”

“The Chaos True God. It is said that the Chaos True God is the most powerful being. Not to mention divine messengers, even believers rarely pass the test of the Chaos Temple.” The disciple spoke with a strange sense of pride and envy.

Zu An and Chu Chuyan exchanged a glance, both seeing the shock in each other’s eyes.

Zu An hurriedly asked, “Where is Abbot Yan now? Is she still in the temple?”

The disciple shook his head, “I don’t know, but it’s rumored that the Temple of Gods will select the most outstanding believers to go to the myriad worlds for training. I suppose Abbot Yan has gone for training.”

The two didn’t believe just one side of the story and went to Baiyujing to investigate. They indeed couldn’t find Yan Xuehen. After leaving, Chu Chuyan asked,

“Master became a Chaos Envoy. Zu An, do you think she might be the same person as Tingxue?”

Zu An smiled bitterly, “It’s very possible.”

No wonder Tingxue looked exactly like Yan Xuehen, no wonder they felt a sense of kinship. So she was Yan Xuehen.

As for why she didn’t remember him, it was easy to explain. The path of chaos easily erodes memories, and she might have experienced things in another timeline or other world, just like Chu Chuyan herself became a Snow Maiden due to some accident, forgetting everything, even her own identity.

“Then do you know how to contact that Miss Tingxue?” Chu Chuyan asked nervously.

Zu An shook his head. He remembered how Ting Xue had stormed off after being angry at Yan Hua for impersonating her and fooling around with him. These details were inconvenient to explain to Chu Chuyan.

He only remembered Ting Xue saying she needed to go back and verify some things. Had she also remembered something?

He quickly composed himself, closed his eyes, and used his divine sense to perceive everything in the world.

Holding the power of this world, he was like a god, and soon discovered ten temples scattered throughout the world.

The divine power emanating from each was undeniable—the power of true gods.

Cultivators all over the world were choosing temples suitable for their own paths, as if a golden age of cultivation had arrived.

Zu An sighed inwardly, never expecting his home to be raided while he was out.

Originally, the Singularity World could have sealed itself off to defend against external invasion, but those were true gods, the pinnacle of existence in all the heavens and myriad realms. Moreover, they hadn’t resorted to v*olence, but rather relied entirely on the voluntary participation of the world’s inhabitants; the will of the entire world naturally couldn’t stop them.

Suddenly, his expression changed. If Yan Xuehen had gone to the temple, what about the others?

He quickly scanned the familiar places in the world with his divine sense, and sure enough, all his familiar friends had disappeared!
