"My heavens, Qiu is too pathetic..."
"To love someone but be unable to express it, only to vent emotions alone and give silently!"
"Now I ask, does love require a reason?"
"Does love not require a reason?"
"Does it?"
"Doesn't it?"
Su Mu interrupted the crowd, "At this time, disaster struck, the sky cracked open, and the sea poured in. Granny Soul, holding a short flute, seized the opportunity to fly away, but because she lacked a human token, Chun could not pass through the Heavenly Sea Gate."
"And Qiu, due to his insufficient magic power, was unable to support the Heavenly Sea Gate. The sea rushed in, causing devastation."
"At this moment, Chun, in order to save her people, jumped into the sea."
"Her body landed on her grandfather, who had transformed into a begonia tree. Chun and her grandfather merged into Chun, forming a giant begonia tree that sealed the hole in the sky."
"But Chun also died."
"Finally, Chun was resurrected by Granny Soul's magic because someone had exchanged their life for hers."
"Upon learning this, Chun was overjoyed and her first thought was to go to the human world to find Kun."
As he said this, Su Mu frowned slightly, perhaps because of Chun's unwavering obsession. He felt a bit uncomfortable.
Everyone else felt the same.
The Balzeb sisters were already in tears.
They simply couldn't imagine the courage it would take to sacrifice one's life for love.
"Chun was about to go to the human world, and that night, Qiu specifically came to send her off."
"The two lay on the ground, back to back, the gap between them deciding the final outcome."
"It was the last time they were so close, yet so far apart."
"Qiu confessed his feelings, and Chun told Qiu that he was like a brother to her."
"'Brother.'" Su Mu chuckled bitterly.
The Prince couldn't bear to watch and shook his head, "Tsk tsk tsk, this girl is truly heartless, essentially burning bridges after crossing them."
"If I were Qiu, Chun would definitely have called me 'husband' that night!" Bi Lian Zhang Chulan rubbed his hands lecherously.
Su Mu continued, "Qiu cried sadly. Afterward, Qiu opened the Heavenly Sea Gate again and sent Kun to the human world."
"At the same time, he ate Granny Soul's walnuts."
The scene before the crowd suddenly swirled and froze at the last moment on the cliff.
Chun watched Kun enter the Heavenly Sea Gate, her heart filled with reluctance.
Unbeknownst to her, behind her, Qiu's body tensed in pain as a flame-like golden light burst forth.
He would use his soul as a medium to send Chun away.
The crowd below covered their faces and wept, their mouths muffled, tears streaming down uncontrollably.
"Chun, come to me!"
"Quick!"
Qiu endured the searing pain and reached out his right hand to Chun.
Chun, not understanding what was happening, quickly ran to Qiu's side.
"Aren't we going home together?"
"I redeemed your lifespan from Granny Soul, and I'm going to send you to the human world to live!"
"I regret not holding you tightly that night."
"Chun, promise me, don't let go of me, believe me, you will be very happy."
Qiu's tears flowed uncontrollably, his eyes filled with a gentle smile.
"When I count to three, we'll jump down together!"
Seeing Chun hesitate, Qiu tightly grasped her hands and knelt down.
"Listen, Chun, we will definitely meet again!"
"Believe me!"
The countdown began from Qiu's lips.
The two of them jumped off the cliff with all their might.
The flames on Qiu's body, accompanied by flowing light, drew an arc.
"I will turn into the wind and rain of the human world to be by your side. Goodbye."
As they fell, Qiu was completely engulfed by flames, and golden falling leaves transformed into a golden lotus that tightly wrapped Chun.
Thus, Chun was successfully sent to the human world.
"Oh my god, this is too sad, too heartbreaking!"
"Chun came, Qiu left, begonia flowers bloomed, Chun repaid Kun's life, who will repay Qiu's love?"
Hong Hong wailed loudly, tissues being pulled out one after another.
The emotions of everyone present were completely ignited. Su Mu waved his fan, and the scene disappeared again, returning to the wine house.
"What kind of ending is worthy of my arduous journey..."
A hoarse voice came from a sofa in the corner. Everyone curiously poked their heads out to look.
They saw Granny Soul drink a glass of wine and slowly stand up.
"Wait, isn't this Granny Soul from 'Big Fish & Begonia' just now?!"
"Why is he here!"
"No way, it really is!"
"Everyone, hurry up, surround him, and make him hand over Qiu's soul!"
Sister Bao'er immediately stood up and grabbed her shovel, preparing to charge, but was quickly pulled back by Zhang Chulan, "Are you crazy? Let's watch first."
"What, I can't take it anymore, I'm going to bury him."
Granny Soul gave a wry smile, extinguished his bamboo pipe, and sighed deeply.
"Quickly release Qiu's soul! You actually chose to help Chun, how hateful!"
"Don't think about escaping, hurry up!"
Luffy and Zoro immediately surrounded Granny Soul from both sides.
Su Mu looked at Granny Soul's back and felt a dull ache in his heart, "You're all mistaken, he is Qiu."
"What?!"
"He... he is Qiu?!"
"How is that possible!"
"Didn't Qiu have white hair and was a handsome young man? Why does he look like this!"
Su Su and Rong Rong widened their eyes in surprise.
"Originally, it should have been Chun and Qiu together, but because of Kun in the vast sea."
"Qiu, tell them."
Su Mu said calmly.
Granny Soul remained silent. A golden light appeared on his body and dissipated, revealing his true face to everyone.
It was still the white-haired young man.
"Sect Leader Su, I have a request. Can I see Chun one more time?"
"I want to know how she is doing now."
Qiu looked at Su Mu with sad eyes.
"Quickly agree to him, you can do it, right! Say it!"
Hong Hong anxiously ran onto the stage and grabbed Su Mu's sleeve.
Everyone pleaded for Qiu's request.
Su Mu sighed slightly, "Qiu, you must understand that you have become Granny Soul and possess immortal life, but Chun is different. Although she is not ordinary, her lifespan is limited."
"Over time, she has reincarnated a hundred times..."
"And her soul imprint has long since dissipated into the Underworld River..."
"However, I do have a way to send you back to the night you said goodbye to her."
"How you choose depends on your own decision, and this decision will affect everything that happens afterward."
Qiu's eyes were blank, "Can you really do it?!"
"Think carefully, but if you still make the same decision as before, the timeline will overlap, and your soul will be crushed and annihilated."
Su Mu said seriously.
Qiu fell silent. Although he couldn't forget Chun, he knew that Chun had never loved him. Even if he made a choice, Chun wouldn't agree.
But after that night, he never saw Chun again. A hidden demon gnawed at him, and he couldn't guarantee he could forget.
"I've been silent for thousands of years, so what if I'm annihilated?"
"I just want to see her, just one glance..."
