Chapter 246: After the modification: Chapter 104 [The Secret of the Stone] (7000 words)_2
At this hour, there were students having their PE class on the field, running laps, and some were playing soccer in the middle. However, the vast stadium still looked quite empty. The bleachers were also sparsely populated.
The two girls casually found an empty corner on the bleachers and sat down.
"Sister Qingyi, what’s the matter? You even came to my school specifically to find me?" Lu Sisi smiled at Gu Qingyi.
She actually liked Gu Qingyi a lot.
Before she turned eighteen, Lu Sisi had practically never had any friends. During the Chinese New Year, when she followed Chen Yan back to his hometown, Gu Qingyi, being another girl, naturally felt somewhat closer to her.
After a few days of spending time together, working, shoveling snow, building snowmen, eating, playing games, setting off fireworks... they genuinely formed a friendship between them.
Besides, Gu Qingyi was so pretty!
Yes, some girls do appreciate the beauty of the same sex.
Gu Qingyi had already finished her ice cream, lightly holding the stick in her hand. She raised her head and looked at Lu Sisi, suddenly saying out of the blue, "You know Chen Yan can use spells, right?"
"Huh?" Lu Sisi was stunned, "I..."
She thought about it seriously, then nodded earnestly, "I know."
Although Chen Yan had told her not to tell others, Gu Qingyi wasn’t an outsider; she was a family elder of Chen Yan’s.
"I can use spells too." Gu Qingyi nodded to Lu Sisi.
Lu Sisi was stunned again.
Gu Qingyi sighed, showing the ice cream stick in her hand, "Watch this."
Gu Tianren’s eyes smiled as she held the stick between her two fingers, then slowly inserted it into the concrete bleacher floor!
Lu Sisi: ???...!!!
In front of the girl’s stunned eyes, the ice cream stick was casually stabbed into the concrete floor by Gu Qingyi, a third of the way in!
Gu Qingyi withdrew her hand, "You can check it out."
Lu Sisi widened her eyes, subconsciously reaching out to pinch the ice cream stick, then pulling it out forcefully.
But soon, the ice cream stick in her hand turned into countless wood shavings!
Lu Sisi was stunned, and soon her eyes widened again, feeling a bit excited as she looked at Gu Qingyi, her face full of surprise, her tone somewhat excited, "Sister Qingyi! So... you are as powerful as Chen Yan?"
As powerful as him?
Gu Qingyi rolled her eyes, pouting, "Even if you tie up a hundred Chen Yan, they wouldn’t stand a chance against one of my hands."
Then, Gu Qingyi grabbed Lu Sisi’s hand, dusting off the wood shavings from her palm.
"This is one kind of spell," Gu Qingyi said flatly, "I’m showing you this to make you believe what I’m going to tell you next."
Lu Sisi felt a little curious, "Sister Qingyi, what do you want to tell me?"
For a moment, the girl’s mind wandered to who knows where, filling her head with many strange thoughts.
It couldn’t be... that kind of drama, could it?
Could it be... Sister Qingyi is going to tell me that Chen Yan is the heir of some cultivation family and then ask me to leave Chen Yan? Maybe even hand me a check for millions?
But, Gu Qingyi wasn’t the type to break up couples. We’ve always gotten along so well before.
"Chen Yan’s spells... you can understand them as being like those in the cultivation novels you read, something along those lines. And even though he’s not as powerful as me, his cultivation is quite good, and he’s very talented. So, he’ll only get stronger in the future," Gu Qingyi said, looking into Lu Sisi’s eyes, "So..."
Lu Sisi was startled!
Is this really going to be a drama about forcing me to break up?
"Sister Qingyi, you... you want me to leave Chen Yan, to not hold him back in his cultivation?" Lu Sisi’s face turned a bit pale.
"... What are you talking about!" Gu Qingyi glared at Lu Sisi, "Don’t let your imagination run wild."
With a cough, Gu Qingyi then said slowly, "Have you read cultivation novels? Do you know what’s the biggest difference between a cultivator and ordinary people?"
"Uhm... cultivators are stronger than ordinary people?" Lu Sisi answered tentatively.
"..." Gu Qingyi shook her head, her tone very calm, "It’s longevity."
Lu Sisi’s heart skipped a beat.
Gu Qingyi said softly, "I’m not going to delve into the specifics of cultivation realms with you. But with Chen Yan’s current cultivation, his lifespan would typically reach around three to four hundred years, at least."
Lu Sisi’s face changed instantly!
Three to four hundred years?
Wouldn’t that make him a monster?
No, wait, an immortal?
"Have you thought about the seriousness of this?" Gu Qingyi looked into Lu Sisi’s eyes.
Lu Sisi was a bit at a loss, but as a modern girl who had been exposed to countless novels and movies, she quickly reacted.
The girl cautiously asked, "Would... he be treated as a monster?"
"Hmm. That’s one of the reasons," Gu Qingyi nodded, "It’s impossible for a normal person to live for three to four hundred years. So if Chen Yan were to live that long, in this world, in this society, he would have to be extremely careful to hide himself. Once his secret is exposed, he would be treated as a monster. frёeωebɳovel.com
To avoid exposure, he would have to live very carefully, keep his social relationships as simple as possible, have minimal contact with others, and not maintain long-term interactions with anyone.
Because if everyone else is aging year by year, but you remain ageless and undying, wouldn’t you be too conspicuous?"
