Chapter Fifty: Weak Water Three Thousand

  Those things that have passed are not remembered by everyone, some people always keep these beautiful and deep memories in their mind, hard to erase, while others can easily throw them away and never think of them again.

  Every time Ye Qihen saw Jiang Nian's indifferent gaze, he felt like his whole heart was aching and throbbing in pain. The pain would subside but never numb, only to return again the next time he saw it. He thought that perhaps only death could truly alleviate this kind of pain.

  Jiang Nian walked ahead, her mind a mess, unable to articulate why she felt this way, only that it was a sudden pang of heartache. Walking in Feng Huang City was already difficult, and now with all the pent-up emotions, it was driving her mad. She didn't want to keep walking, nor did she want to continue on. What was the point of continuing in this fictional world? She couldn't go back, nor could she get the storyline she wanted.

  She shook her head, calming down her thoughts. This idea was too extreme and shouldn't have appeared in her mind. At this point, she should still be a gentle and innocent girl, and those inferior qualities buried deep in her heart should have been suppressed long ago.

  She straightened her back, slowly turned her neck, and the expression in her eyes was more determined than ever before.

  They left and it wasn't long, but because neither of them spoke, they felt like it was a very long time. Jiang Nian looked at the calm lake in front of him and took a deep breath.

  This is a very large lake, crystal clear to an extreme degree, seemingly only half a meter high, but she knew that the water of this lake must be unfathomably deep. The lake water was calm and peaceful, yet there was no sign of any living creature surviving in it. She turned her head towards Ye Qiheng, raised an eyebrow, waiting for his response.

  Ye Qihen smiled, it was a very habitual action of his. The smile was soft and warm, always giving people the illusion that they were deeply loved. Jiang Nian felt himself being bewildered too, so he lowered his head to gaze at the clear and transparent lake water in front of him.

  Ye Qihen smiled again and explained, "This lake is called Weak Water Three Thousand. Adventurers often choose to practice their lightness skills and flying ability here. After all, there's a strong gravitational force at work here, and the water doesn't have any buoyancy. If you can safely cross this lake, then in terms of flight, you'll be truly unbeatable." He paused for a moment, then smiled again and added, "It's also very suitable for running away when you're not winning."

  Jiang Nian pursed her lips, gazing at the weak water in front of her. No wonder there were no living creatures here; it was simply impossible to survive in this place. She picked up a stone from the ground and tossed it into the water, but all she heard was a faint splash, and even the ripples quickly disappeared without leaving any trace.

  Jiang Nian's eyes revealed a look of astonishment, even more terrifying than he had imagined. Once you fall in, you'll never be able to climb out again for the rest of your life. How could anyone possibly dare to walk on the surface of Weak Water under such circumstances?

  Just as he thought of this, he saw another splash in the distance, and a man on the shore was shouting "Su Brother Su Brother" non-stop. Jiang Nian's face was full of astonishment, could it be that easy? Wasn't he afraid of death?

  The man on the shore was shouting, but his tone was not urgent. Jiang Nian turned his head to look at the clear weak water, and even opened his eyes wide. The stone that had just been thrown down was actually "spit" out by the weak water, and was heavily smashed to the ground, the stone was still wet.

  Not long after, Su Ge who had fallen down was also thrown out. He spat out a few mouthfuls of water and then lay there motionless, resting.

  Jiang Nian was thoroughly conquered by this lake, if she could look in the mirror, she must be full of black lines now, filled with speechlessness. Fortunately, these spiritual and strange things became habitual after watching for a while. This time, she was unexpectedly calm, turning her head to indicate that she also wanted to try.

  Ye Qihen nodded slightly and smiled gently, assuring: "Don't worry, I will never let you fall. You can go."

  The sentence was actually not fancy at all, but Jiang Nian's footsteps still paused when he read it out loud. The sentence was too plain, yet it brought a strange sense of emotion. However, she didn't turn her head around and jumped onto the surface of the Weak Water with one leap.
