Chapter 151: Inverting Cause and Effect, Love at First Sight. Endless Slaughter.

This is the true immortal body.

As long as she dies, she can return to the past and eliminate her opponents ahead of time.

Fu Yu suddenly revealed the secret she'd hidden all her life. Qiu Qianyue seemed frozen in time. After a long pause, her eyes finally moved slowly, fixing on Fu Yu.

She spoke through clenched teeth: "How do you know?"

Yun Shan Luan clearly hadn't been able to say anything!

The Dharma Form was on the verge of self-destruction, its aura violent and chaotic. Under Jun Bu Du's suppression, that self-destructive power grew increasingly fierce, swelling wildly at a visible rate.

Fu Yu smiled, not answering, instead asking: "Have you ever thought about one question—why do you fail every time?"

Hearing this, Qiu Qianyue couldn't help but sneer: "Speaking of victory and defeat at this moment, don't you think it's too early?"

Her gaze flickered viciously, searching through her memories for a moment before settling on a time point to return to—the day she first met the four-year-old Fu Yu.

If she could return to that day, she would crush this child like a bug, and then there would be no Divine Shaman in the world. Just like... every future prodigy she had killed or crippled!

Fu Yu said calmly: "Every person who might threaten you is eliminated in advance. Yet without that one, there's always another. One problem solved, another emerges. Why do you think that is?"

"No." Qiu Qianyue smiled grimly. "My only miscalculation this time is Jun Bu Du alone. Next time, as long as I don't open the Portal, I will surely become a god!"

Then, without Divine Shaman in the world, she could let those ants multiply for a few more centuries, always able to absorb enough lifespan and faith to complete her grand plan.

Fu Yu continued, as if to herself: "You lose because you defy the Great Dao. The Heavenly Dao is the Great Dao, the righteous path. You walk the Evil Path, and there will always be someone to set things right. Kill one, and a thousand more will arise. The torch never dies."

Qiu Qianyue burst out laughing: "Great principles, again with great principles! Are these your last words, Divine Shaman? Putting on a righteous front and acting like you're above life and death, but inside, that little girl inside you is already crying in fear, isn't she?"

No response.

Fu Yu turned her head and exchanged a glance with Jun Bu Du, then both looked toward the Evil Demon God.

"Qiu Qianyue," Fu Yu's expression softened with subtle complexity, "At this point, haven't you realized what It is?"

Qiu Qianyue's Dharma Form was rapidly losing its human shape. Hearing this, the violent, surging aura paused slightly.

She asked warily: "What is It?"

Fu Yu looked back, her eyes mirrored the twisted, grotesque Dharma Form: "It is you."

Qiu Qianyue frowned disdainfully: "What nonsense are you spouting!"

Fu Yu said: "Its present is your future—a tyrannical, narrow-minded False God, stealing the power of the Heavenly Dao. Naturally, it can only create a twisted, bloodthirsty 'new world,' and It will eventually be consumed by the fanatical, manic will of Its followers, degenerating into a full-blown monster."

"This is your future. Do you see it clearly?"

Fu Yu's voice was not loud, but it hit like a thunderclap.

Qiu Qianyue shuddered all over, her pupils contracting: "Ab-solute-ly im-pos-si-ble."

Fu Yu laughed: "Haven't you noticed It's much weaker than it was thousands of years ago? Haven't you noticed It's still weakening? Why? Because Jun Bu Du led the Dragon Clan to rebel against It, and It lost Its followers."

"Don't you see the resemblance?"

Qiu Qianyue's violently surging Dharma Form tightened slightly. An unshakable chill raced through her body, making her scalp tingle.

"I say, Qiu Qianyue," Fu Yu said kindly, "It's better to die than to become such a mindless thing."

A dead silence fell.

After a long time, Qiu Qianyue gritted her teeth, forcing a calm tone: "I have infinite time to plan for the long term. But you, Divine Shaman, you are going to die. You will disappear forever, as if you never existed. My affairs are none of your concern."

Fu Yu was pissed.

She kept going on about killing me.

Going back to the past, this woman didn't dare to target Jun Bu Du—only me?

Even knowing it was because she was young and had no backing, Fu Yu was still provoked by Qiu Qianyue's "disdain," and every fiber of her being refused to accept it.

She pouted and turned to glare at Jun Bu Du.

Jun Bu Du chuckled softly.

When he smiled just slightly, a gentle smile played at the corners of his mouth.

Fu Yu lost focus for a moment, unconsciously curving her lips along with him, then fumed at her own weakness.

Blushing with fury, she glared.

She hatefully looked away.

"Are you sure," Jun Bu Du said, the spring breeze at the corner of his mouth fading as he lifted his eyes to Qiu Qianyue, his tone calm and unhurried, "that without her, I would save the world?"

If he didn't save the world, he wouldn't die. If he didn't die, no matter how many times she replayed it, Qiu Qianyue could never cross this insurmountable obstacle called him.

Fu Yu was stunned too.

Fu Yu knew this wasn't the time for a lovestruck brain, but her heart had a mind of its own, fluttering as if flowers were blooming inside.

Ahem! This is just a tactic to confuse the enemy.

Qiu Qianyue's voice involuntarily tensed: "...What are you talking about?"

Her trembling eyes fixed on his blood-red vertical pupils.

His eyes were cold, indifferent, inhuman.

He slowly curled the corners of his mouth, seemingly smiling, but it only made people shudder.

"You once drove my mother mad, making her try to kill me." His voice was eerily calm, flat, devoid of emotion. "Unfortunately, my father valued his vessel more than anything. Mother's attempt failed, and she died right in front of me, splattering me with blood."

Qiu Qianyue's eyes trembled with shock: "What..."

The Jun family was too unfathomable; she couldn't get a hand in there, so she had to start with Jun Bu Du's maternal family—the Helan family, which had been intermarrying with the Jun family for generations.

Jun Bu Du's mother was Helan Xun's sister.

Qiu Qianyue easily seduced Helan Xun, married into the Helan family, successfully drugged her sister-in-law, drove her mad, and made her go back to kill her own son.

But Qiu Qianyue never expected that the head of the Jun family was an ancient immortal who kept stealing the bodies of his descendants.

Jun Bu Du was meant to be his next vessel, so he wouldn't let anyone else touch him.

"Mother was the only person who felt truly human by my side," Jun Bu Du said calmly. "After Mother died, I found no reason to be human. If it weren't for Fu Yu back then, I wouldn't be here today."

Fu Yu's mind exploded with a roar.

Qiu Qianyue might not grasp the true meaning of those words, but she knew exactly what it meant.

She had once accompanied Jun Bu Du through those terrible days in the Illusion Array of Yulong City.

He had a really rough childhood.

The head of the Jun family, that undying monster, wanted to turn him into an empty vessel convenient for soul possession, suppressing him year after year, using absolute authority to destroy his will.

Fu Yu had originally only wanted to look into Jun Bu Du's past and confirm that his primal yang was still intact, but upon finding him so pitiful, she couldn't help accompanying him through one "tomorrow" after another.

She had even blown wind-etched marks onto his Shoushan Stone paperweight.

And it was with that very paperweight that he had slain the old monster.

She remembered the way the young man had gripped it—his knuckles white from excessive force, veins bulging on the back of his hand, a stark contrast to his calm, composed expression.

Fu Yu was dazed. "You... were aware of me by your side back then?"

Unable to touch, unable to communicate, yet you could sense it?

Unbelievable.

Jun Bu Du lowered his gaze into hers. "That's why it felt like an old acquaintance at first sight."

Fu Yu opened her mouth, lips trembling, her heart burning hot.

Even if this was just a tactic against Qiu Qianyue... fine, she would admit defeat.

Her eyes welled with warmth, and she murmured under her breath, "I was careless; I didn't sense you beside me as a child."

She had entered his memories, and he had entered hers.

She was different from him. Unlike him—who was a sentient ruler, sharp and perceptive, nothing escaped his notice.

She had grown up rough and tumble, rough around the edges.

Fu Yu blinked. "Alright, the first time I saw you, you did look very familiar."

She had thought it was love at first sight—no, lust at first sight. That was her final act of stubbornness.

He gazed at her, slowly blinking his long lashes.

Fu Yu cleared her throat. "I get it now."

Jun Bu Du nodded calmly. "Mm."

These two were far too calm, too familiar with each other. In just a brief moment, they seemed to have reached an understanding and were ready to break the deadlock.

Qiu Qianyue's eyes flickered violently, her heart filled with shock and suspicion.

She didn't believe there was any way to break the Immortality Elixir.

She could have countless chances, could die countless times, but for them, one loss meant eternal damnation.

Jun Bu Du must have said those words to make her afraid, thereby protecting Fu Yu's life?

It must be so, right?

If that were the case, then Fu Yu absolutely must be killed.

Qiu Qianyue steeled herself and was about to burn her bridges and resist Jun Bu Du's suppression, when suddenly her body felt light, followed by a sudden, jarring expansion. In an instant, her Dharma Form swelled, and the entire space seemed to shrink by half in her vision.

Jun Bu Du had withdrawn his demonic breath, and she was about to explode!

Qiu Qianyue's racing thoughts came to a sudden halt.

So... sudden...

Then she saw Fu Yu smilingly raise a hand toward her, a dazzling golden causal seal gradually forming in her palm.

"Qiu Qianyue, I'll let you die knowing the truth."

Qiu Qianyue could no longer control her own power.

In a few breaths, she would explode with a bang.

She didn't believe Fu Yu had any way to turn the tides.

But Fu Yu remained unhurried. "There's no such thing as love at first sight. It's just that love transcends time."

Qiu Qianyue furrowed her brows. "...What?"

Fu Yu smiled brightly. "Because I will be his soulmate for life, so the moment we first met, we had already chosen each other."

Qiu Qianyue was stunned. "Are you crazy?"

What earth-shattering love overcoming life and death... even third-rate novels wouldn't use such a cliché. How dumb.

And at that moment, the golden causal thread in Fu Yu's palm had already taken shape.

"Still don't understand?" Fu Yu's smile grew even more radiant, dazzling. "Aren't you the best at twisting the truth? That kind of trick is truly low. Today, I'll show you the supreme realm of reversal—reversing effect into cause!"

She raised her hand in front of her, drawing on the heavy karma of eons, lifted it vertically, and then slammed it down with a bang!

The golden light was like an iron curtain.

Fu Yu opened her lips and pronounced the judgment.

"I will eventually become the Emperor Witch Fate Master."

"You, no matter how many times you start over, will always meet a final death."

"Thus, I, as the Fate Master, pronounce by divine decree—"

"Death Sentence: Endless Execution!"
