Chapter 452: Baby, I Finally Found You

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Feng Ling watched as the king was buried.

When she was so sad that her soul was trembling, a red and a gold light flashed at the same time. Then, her soul lost consciousness.

When she regained consciousness, she felt that something was wrong.

Feng Ling quickly opened her eyes and realized that she was lying beside a coffin. She had already changed back to the modern Chu Luo and was wearing modern clothes.

She subconsciously touched her face. Indeed, it was covered in tears.

Chu Luo looked around. This place was built entirely with crystals, and she could see far away. Coincidentally, the crystal coffin was facing the divine pool mountain in the Priest Hall.

At this point, Chu Luo’s heart skipped a beat. She quickly got up from the ground and looked into the coffin.

The coffin lid was also made of crystal, and one could see the person lying inside.

When she saw the person lying in the coffin, pleasant surprise flashed across Feng Ling’s face.

“Yan…” She shouted and wanted to lift the coffin lid.

However, just as she placed her hand on it, she felt a powerful energy. This energy stopped her.

Chu Luo panicked.

At this moment, the Phoenix Seal on her wrist flashed.

At the same time, a golden light flew out of the Heaven-and-Earth pouch on her body.

A golden dragon and a fiery phoenix appeared in front of her.

The dragon sent her a voice transmission. “This is a seal that your master used his entire cultivation to seal. You can’t open it.”

Chu Luo asked anxiously, “Then how can I open this coffin?”

Phoenix’s voice sounded. “Mistress, you must complete the High Priestess’ Succession ceremony.”

“How can I take over as the High Priestess!” Chu Luo was vexed.

Phoenix: “Mistress, don’t be anxious. Dragon and I can help you.”

Hope surfaced in Chu Luo’s eyes. “What do I need to do?”

The dragon said, “Do the priest dance and undo the seal on the sacrificial altar. Phoenix and I will help you obtain the power of the High Priestess.”

Phoenix: “Yes. Only by unsealing the seal on the sacrificial platform can Mistress obtain the power of the High Priestess.”

Chu Luo replied without thinking, “Okay.”

After saying that, she walked towards the altar.

With every step she took, her clothes changed a little.

When she reached the steps of the sacrificial altar, she was already wearing a wide white robe.

Her white clothes fluttered, and her waist-long hair was tied up by a jade belt. A red gemstone forehead accessory glowed red, making her fair face look as delicate as the peach blossoms in March.

The small bell on her wrist and ankle rang clearly.

When she stood on the sacrificial platform, Dragon and Phoenix flew towards the wall behind her.

The wall was carved with dragons and phoenixes to begin with. The moment they flew in, the aura on the entire ritual table suddenly changed drastically.

The sacrificial music came with an ancient melody. Below the sacrificial altar, a group of people with bull heads and horse faces stood. Flames burned at the same time.

Chu Luo stepped on the drum and bowed to the heavens three times on the sacrificial platform. Then, she moved her body and a lustrous light hit her. She used her eyebrows, body movements, the accessories on her body, and the strength on her toes to move slowly like a cloud and spin like a whirlwind.

The loose robe made her look like a fairy who had descended to the mortal world.

The atmosphere on the entire sacrificial platform became solemn. She was like a god—noble, sacred, and inviolable.

Below the sacrificial platform, thousands of subjects seemed to be kneeling. They welcomed their new High Priestess with reverence.

An even more powerful light descended from the sky.

At that moment, the dragon and phoenix rushed out from the pattern on the wall at the same time and flew into the nine heavens.

After the light spots hit Chu Luo, they all entered her body.

Chu Luo stopped and stood there accepting the power of the High Priestess.

After about five minutes, the light disappeared. Chu Luo walked out of the light and flew to the coffin.

She placed her hand on the coffin lid and gently lifted it. The coffin lid was opened.

At the same time, Li Yan, who was lying inside, opened his eyes.

He opened his mouth and said in a dry and hoarse voice, “Little Ling’er.”

“Jingzhou?”

“It’s me.”

Li Yan sat up and propped himself up before jumping out of the coffin. At the same time, he pulled Chu Luo into his arms and sighed. “Baby, I finally found you.”

When Chu Luo heard the word ‘baby’, her heart trembled, but tears flowed out uncontrollably.

She said, “Jingzhou, you big idiot!”

“Call me Yan.” Li Yan kissed the top of her head and said, “I’m your Yan. Don’t think about him.”

Chu Luo: “…”

All the sadness in her heart was suddenly washed away by his jealous words. What was going on?

Chu Luo couldn’t help but punch his shoulder twice.

“You big baddie!”

Hearing that her tone was a little better, Li Yan smiled and pushed her away a little. He lowered his head and found her lips.

After a while, when Chu Luo was almost unable to breathe, he let go of her reluctantly.

She said, “You look really good in this priestess’s costume. It’s a pity that he can’t see. But I can.”

Chu Luo glanced at him. “Aren’t you him?”

Li Yan deliberately said in her ear, “You can check if I’m him or not.”

Chu Luo: “…”

Indeed, after this person reincarnated into a modern person, he became even more shameless than in his previous life.

Chu Luo pretended not to understand him and asked, “When did you regain your memories of the future life?”

“I’ve always been by your side.”

When Li Yan said this, he deliberately kept her in suspense. “I’ve always been him. He’s always been me.”

Chu Luo didn’t believe him. She tried her best to think. From the time she felt that the king was especially like Yan, it seemed like…

“Was it when Feng Lan pretended to be me?”

The king had never expressed her feelings so prominently in front of her. Why did it seem like the king had become a different person during that period of time?

Li Yan seemed to have guessed her thoughts and said, “After you brought him to ask about that mirror, he also went alone once… Hmph! He felt that you definitely liked him like that, so he imitated me.”

Only Li Yan knew that what they had experienced was actually an illusion. It was an illusion formed by all his indignation in his previous life. He wanted her to know how much he loved her in both his previous life and this life.

Chu Luo looked at him awkwardly and asked in embarrassment, “So you weren’t the one who was with me during that time?”

“If you’re not with me, who would dare to be with you!” Li Yan’s voice deepened.

“Then why do you keep referring to him as ‘him’?”

She almost thought that she had an affair during that period of time.

Li Yan immediately guessed what she was thinking and pulled her over to ruthlessly “abuse” her before saying, “The person with you now is me in this life. Even if that was my previous life, you’re not allowed to think about it again.”

Chu Luo blinked and looked at him. She deliberately called out, “Brother Jingzhou.”

This made Li Yan’s heart tremble, but it only made him feel even more jealous. He said with a dark expression, “Call me Brother Yan.”

“No.”

“If you don’t want us to, let’s have a deeper interaction.”

“You, you, you…”

“Are you going to call me that or not?”

A large hand reached over to pull her belt. Chu Luo exclaimed in surprise and could only call out softly, “Brother Yan.”

Li Yan was satisfied.

He looked at her clothes and hugged her. “Baby, change your clothes first.”

She was too tempting in this outfit, and he was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to help it.

Chu Luo nodded. With a spell, she changed back into modern clothes.

The two of them walked out hand in hand.

Li Yan knew where this tomb was and led Chu Luo forward.

As Chu Luo walked, she said in dissatisfaction, “Since you already had memories of the future, why didn’t you tell me?”

“I couldn’t say,” Li Yan said. “The mirror told me that the world we were in was about to collapse.”

Chu Luo was a little surprised, but when she thought about how she couldn’t speak as long as she wanted to deal with Feng Lan or someone from the demonic path, she seemed to have understood something.

She didn’t continue talking about this matter. Instead, she said, “When we get out, I’ll seal this place again. I want to make sure that no one else can find this tomb again.”

“Okay.”

The two of them had just walked to the edge of the Imperial Mausoleum when Chu Luo flashed in her Heaven-and-Earth pouch.

She pulled Li Yan and they stopped.

She took out the jade ring that was missing a corner from the Heaven-and-Earth pouch. The golden dragon ran out from inside. He said, “I feel it. The missing piece is nearby.”

“Can you bring us there?”

“Yes.”

The golden dragon flew over.

Chu Luo and Li Yan quickly followed.

After walking for a while, Li Yan suddenly frowned. “This isn’t my tomb path.”

Chu Luo found it strange. “Why is it Phoenix Skies’ tomb architecture?”

The two of them suddenly looked at each other and quickened their pace.

This was a long aisle that was carved with many scenes of war.

As the two of them walked, Li Yan suddenly stopped. A cold glint flashed across his eyes and his displeasure was obvious.

Chu Luo followed his gaze and saw at a glance that this was the scene of her standing on the city wall and performing a sacrificial dance before the Grand General went to war.

“Hmph!”

Li Yan snorted and grabbed Chu Luo’s hand to hold her hand as they continued walking.

The two of them walked for a while. The dragon stopped by a stone door and said to the two of them, “The piece I’m missing is in this tomb.”

Chu Luo was about to walk over to look for the door when Li Yan stopped her and said, “Stand here. I’ll help him look for it.”

Chu Luo looked at his dark face and opened her mouth. She wanted to say something, but in the end, she wisely chose to shut her mouth and nod.

Li Yan then let go of her hand and walked towards the stone door.

He searched there and took out a dagger to pry open a certain place. Then, the stone door rumbled and opened.

After the stone door was entirely opened, Chu Luo saw the scene inside and subconsciously widened her eyes.
