————————————The Divider of Silent Night————————————
“How many times has it been? Why is it still not working?” Ouyang Zixin groaned, clutching her head which hurt so much she felt like she might die, awkwardly leaning against an ancient tree.
To fully master Nameless's power, she needed to control the balance of their powers. But no matter how many times she tried, Ouyang Zixin could never get it right.
“Again.”
“Again.”
“Again.”
……
“I didn’t expect so much time to pass without me noticing.” Ning Zhiyuan sighed at the peak of the mountain, “I wonder how Ouyang Zixin has been these past few years.”
It had been fifty years since they parted ways; the three had often been close yet ultimately missed each other.
The rules within the secret realm are truly frustrating.
“Nameless, do you mean I can leave soon?” When Ouyang Zixin heard this news from Nameless, she was almost driven to madness with joy.
"Master, Nameless can sense all unusual changes within this secret realm. You will be able to leave here soon."
Finally.
On another peak, Ouyang Zixin lay on the gray-brown earth, a tear rolling down the corner of her eye.
Finally, the day has come.
At the same moment, Yun Tianmo opened his eyes, awakening from meditation, his gaze directed towards a certain direction.
"Could it be an illusion?" Yun Tianmo frowned. It had been fifty years; why did he feel something peculiar today, as if that person was not far away?
The three within the secret realm, at different locations yet at the same moment, spoke a shared phrase as if by agreement—
When we meet again, may you be well.
In the year 1776 of the Yuhai Continent, winter.
Five years had passed since the opening of the secret realm, and during these five years, there had been no significant events. If one were to mention any changes, it would be that Dream Nation was steadily retreating under the pressure from Exiled Nation, while seemingly inactive Cloud Nation emerged as the biggest beneficiary.
All of this was thanks to Yun Tianmo entering the secret realm five years ago.
Dream Nation was unaware that this behind-the-scenes manipulator came from Cloud Nation. They only felt that Exiled Nation was being too oppressive, yet they had no countermeasures. After all, Dream Nation was not as strong as Exiled Nation.
Over the past five years, Exiled Nation received the promised elixirs from Yun Tianmo on time each year, which greatly satisfied Exiled Nation's Sovereign, Nan Gong Yao. During a banquet for his ministers of nobility, he even publicly declared that Exiled Nation and Cloud Nation would maintain eternal friendship.
As for Cloud Nation, they naturally accepted Exiled Nation's promises with pleasure. Their private deal to jointly suppress Dream Nation remained intact; as long as this alliance held and the elixirs were properly controlled, there was no need to worry about Exiled Nation turning against them.
The outside world is fascinating, but this fascination has nothing to do with Ouyang Zixin. The only thing she cares about now is the specific date of her exit from the secret realm.
The moonlight in the secret realm is beautiful. If one were to say, appreciating the moon should be considered one of the things Ouyang Zixin has done the most here aside from cultivating.
Thinking about leaving the secret realm tomorrow, she feels a twinge of reluctance.
In her past life, she lived for thirty years; in the Yuhai Continent, five years; and in the secret realm, fifty years.
Calculating it all, Ouyang Zixin feels like she has become an old woman.
"Ha ha, truly, the world is vast and full of wonders. Nameless, don't you think?" Ouyang Zixin said while sitting on a large tree, swinging her legs and laughing.
—Indeed, the master's experiences can be described as extraordinary.
Initially, Nameless did not understand what Ouyang Zixin meant by her past life until one time when she fell into a coma due to excessive cultivation and spoke of her past as if it were a dream. That was when Nameless learned about it.
Afterward, Ouyang Zixin scolded him severely for prying into her privacy. The innocent Nameless ultimately could not explain himself clearly and carried that blame for a full ten years.
"Tomorrow..." Ouyang Zixin wanted to ask if Nameless would also feel reluctant to leave.
But just then, Nameless suddenly darted out from the space and shielded Ouyang Zixin behind him.
"Master, there’s a disturbance in the secret realm's space."
Seeing Nameless's anxious demeanor, Ouyang Zixin dared not move recklessly. If it made Nameless so vigilant, this disturbance must be serious.
The master and servant stood suspended in mid-air while one sat quietly on a branch. They remained silent for quite some time.
"What is going on?" Ouyang Zixin couldn't hold back any longer. It had been quite a while, and there was still no sign of spatial disturbance. "Did you make a mistake?"
"Nameless doesn't know. The airflow came very quickly, and Nameless thought someone had disrupted the spatial order. Perhaps Nameless made a mistake and startled the master." Nameless retreated from in front of Ouyang Zixin and hovered behind her, lowering his head as he spoke.
"I've told you so many times, you don't have to be like this." Ouyang Zixin truly had no way to deal with Nameless's humility. Clearly a young boy, yet he always acted so mature.
Tomorrow they would enter the secret realm, and with the issue of spatial disturbance arising, Ouyang Zixin lost interest in moon-gazing and went to rest early.
— Master.
Hmm...
— Master, the sun is shining on your backside.
Hmm...
— Master, the early bird gets eaten by the worm.
Hmm... Huh?
What nonsense.
Ouyang Zixin turned over and fell back asleep. This Nameless had learned all sorts of nonsense from her about waking up every day.
Next time, she must teach him a good lesson.
— Master, does "teaching well" mean "tirelessly ruining someone"?
“Nameless, that's enough.” It was really annoying. Ever since Nameless appeared, Ouyang Zixin hadn't had a good night's sleep; the joy of waking up naturally had long since disappeared.
——Master, are you sure you want to continue sleeping?
Hmm.
——Master, are you not going to leave the secret realm?
Hmm… Ahhh!
Ouyang Zixin suddenly sat up. Right, how could she forget that today was the day to leave the secret realm.
“Nameless, you did this on purpose.” Ouyang Zixin gritted her teeth and said fiercely, “Come out, I promise I won’t kill you.”
——Understood.
A white shadow flashed in front of Ouyang Zixin. Nameless stood respectfully before her with hands at his sides.
“You… sigh, forget it.” To be honest, Ouyang Zixin still preferred the occasionally mischievous Nameless over a servant who was overly respectful.
“Let’s go, Nameless, we’re heading out.”
But…
Which way was the exit?
“Nameless, you only said we’re leaving today, but how do we get out?” Ouyang Zixin had this habit of getting confused right after waking up, and even after fifty years, it hadn’t improved.
"Master, you don't need to worry. When the time comes, it will happen naturally."
"Do I need to do anything?"
"No, you don't."
"Then why did you wake me up?"
"You can go back to sleep."
"What do you mean?"
"Master, didn't you say that going back to sleep is the happiest thing in life?"
"So, you woke me up just so I could do that happiest thing again."
"Yes, Master."
"Let me tell you, the absolute happiest thing in life is to sleep until I wake up naturally, sleep until I wake up naturally! Do you understand?" Ouyang Zixin was almost going crazy. Who said Nameless was cute when playing pranks?
Who said that? Come out! I promise I won't kill you! (Ouyang Gu Liang thought, this is what you call self-inflicted misery.)
