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!
Xu Que had never considered Xuanyuan Wanrong a hidden danger, and he had felt he could act fearlessly because of her.
These two people's fates were linked by the Heavenly Book of Taiyi, and they depended on each other for survival. It could even be said that they had a stable relationship where they shared both life and death. This was why Xu Que was at ease. He was aware that even if Xuanyuan Wanrong came into the world again, she wouldn't dare to harm him, and she would even protect him.
But now, he discovered that he had overlooked a certain matter. If Xuanyuan Wanrong died, he wouldn't escape death either.
Moreover, it seemed as if this situation had already occurred.
Xu Que was aware that he hadn't run into any deadly poison or anything similar, yet his life span had unexpectedly seemed to shrink in an inexplicable way and was even manifested in his body. His remaining life span was just 40 days!
