Qinglian’S Heart Is Covered, Fate Meets Chapter 15

Chapter 15

Seclusion in the Lotus Palace, Love Spanning Millennia

The Immortal Offspring of the Lotus Palace grew increasingly numerous. These children, bearing the fragrance of the lotus and divine might, either traveled to the mortal realm to bestow blessings or guarded the crucial passes of the Three Realms, scattering the couple’s benevolence across the four seas and eight wildernesses. The mortal realm became increasingly peaceful, with the common people living in contentment and prosperity, free from strife and turmoil. The Purple Lotus Goddess no longer needed to personally descend to save the world. She could finally set down the heavy burden of salvation and remain in the Lotus Palace, enjoying the years peacefully with Gu Baifei.

The Purple Lotus’s appearance remained exactly as it was when they first met in antiquity. The tenderness in her eyes had gained a motherly compassion, yet it had not diminished the charm that had caused Gu Baifei to fall for her at first sight all those years ago. He still cherished her daily, holding her in the palm of his hand. In the morning, he would adorn her hair with the newest blooming lotus stamens, and in the evening, he would take her hand to watch the clouds and sunset by the Jade Pond. The adoration in his eyes was greater than it was ten million years ago. Father Emperor, seeing that the two had finally achieved fulfillment and that the Three Realms had gained many capable Immortal Offspring, was overjoyed. He completely relinquished authority to the younger generation, content to enjoy family life quietly on the Jade Terrace, no longer needing to crane his neck, hoping for his children’s return.

Having shed the heavy responsibility of the Heavenly Dao, Gu Baifei completely abandoned the solemnity of “Baifei of the Heavenly Dao,” becoming only Qinglian’s exclusive “Big Brother Bai.” He would also accompany her in recalling the old names from their cycles of reincarnation. Sometimes, he would transform into the cunning “Hu Si,” curling up on her lap and rubbing against her, inhaling the lotus fragrance. Other times, he would assume the role of the cold yet gentle “Venerable Serpent,” using the tip of his tail to hook her skirt. And sometimes, he would become the carefree “Big Brother Wind,” holding her hand and soaring freely through the clouds of the Celestial Realm.

With the order of the Three Realms maintained by the numerous Immortal Offspring and the peace of the mortal realm protected by their blessings, the two became the most carefree lovers in the Lotus Palace. Most of the time, they nestled on the soft couch in the bedchamber or by the hot spring, surrounded by the pervasive lotus fragrance, existing only as each other’s beloved companions. They spent millions of years in the gentle embrace of sleeping together and intimately relying on one another. They no longer had to separate for the sake of saving the world, simply guarding this fulfillment that belonged only to them, passing through the endless millennia.
