I am the best when it comes to taking divergent paths. With just a flip of my hand, I shall take the path less commonly travelled. I search far and wide, only to find myself unbeatable and unrivaled. So now I ask, who else can match my awesomeness? Acting tough is second nature to me and I am a lone wolf. The road is long and winding but I shan’t feel lonely as long as I am able to act tough! Life and death bore me and I do whatever I deem fit. “Young man, way back when I started acting tough, you were still learning how to put on your underpants!” Xu Que thus decided to take the path of acting tough. He decided to act tough every single god-damned day. If he wasn’t acting tough, he was scheming for the best way to act tough!
In an endless, pitch-black darkness, tides of emptiness and coldness wafted through Xu Que's body. Xu Que trembled slightly, then snapped his eyes open.
Jiang Hongyan was no longer in his arms. Engulfed by a great pull, all he could see and reach was a vast and borderless nothingness. Xu Que realized right away that he was still being transported to the Xuanzhen Continent.
He had lost consciousness right after he pulled Jiang Hongyan to his chest and lunged into the doors of the Immortal Hall. The same had most likely happened to Jiang Hongyan, and they had been separated. But if there was one thing he could feel relieved about, it was that he could still feel Jiang Hongyan's aura nearby.
Although, this nothingness that had consumed him was just too mysterious. With only his eyes, he could not see Jiang Hongyan's whereabouts.
"Hongyan!" he hollered.
