Chapter 255 – Previous and Present Lives
Eastward of the St. Ancestral Mountains lies a vast, boundless desert with endless dunes of yellow sand.
When the gales blew, the ever-present sands would slowly envelope the entire region in a yellow veil.
The environment here is extremely harsh and demon beasts would appear from time to time, making the region extremely dangerous.
The main world itself was vast and boundless. In his previous life, when Glory City was destroyed, the surviving residents of Glory City escaped to the Heavenly Fate Plateau before they headed east. Pursued by Snow Wind demon beasts, they trekked through the entire St. Ancestral Mountain range and into the Endless Desert.
Along the journey, countless fell.
Nie Li still clearly remembered the events that occurred after they escaped into the Endless Desert. In order to save him, Ye Ziyun died from a demon beast’s attack. Nie Li originally intended to follow her in death, but her dying words begged him to guard her remaining clansmen. However, as they travelled deeper into the Endless Desert, one man fell after another. By the time Nie Li reached the Desert Palace, he was all alone.
As he recalled the past, everything looked as if it had been arranged by fate.
As he stood in the desert, Nie Li’s eyes turned watery as countless scenes flashed through his head. He thought of how he had gotten to know Ye Ziyun the first time and how they had experienced life and death together. It was Ye Ziyun who changed him back then, from a timid and cowardly youth into a firm and strong young man.
