CHAPTER 347: CHAPTER 252: THE MEMORY WOUND OF MENG DIE

Everyone was amazed at how the Barefoot Immortal used his fighting spirit to dissolve the gas, a power shocking enough in itself. But what truly impressed Rosen was the Immortal’s formidable aura. Once that aura was unleashed, it would cover an area of tens of thousands of miles, rendering even a Daluo Golden Immortal helpless, as they would perish in its presence.

"The aura of the Barefoot Immortal was already incredibly strong, and now with Gengar’s gas added, no one would be able to resist his aura anymore. This greatly enhances our combat strength."

Just as Rosen was reviewing the situation, Meng Die found a way to successfully leave the storybook world.

Meng Die said, "We’ve always been searching for a storybook to leave this world, not realizing that this world is the storybook itself. We don’t need to search; we’ve already found it."

Hearing this, Rosen and the Barefoot Immortal were simultaneously so shocked that their jaws dropped to the floor.

"You don’t need to be so surprised. After all, it’s the truth. We’re inside the storybook, so we don’t need to look any further to find the exit."

After saying this, Meng Die grabbed Rosen and the Barefoot Immortal by the arms and said, "I’m taking you out of here now."

With that, she opened a teleportation channel and led Rosen and the Immortal away.

When they reached the outside, Rosen and the Barefoot Immortal still couldn’t understand what had just happened, and they probably would never comprehend it.

Meng Die’s logic was too bizarre; she simply said she found an exit and indeed found a way out, then actually led them out. Rosen felt this must be some kind of idealist power.

After the three left the storybook world, two choices lay before them.

One was to return to the Celestial Court and continue being immortals, and the other was to leave the Immortal Class, take the chosen ones, and create a new life.

Of course, they chose the latter.

At that time, the chosen one was reverted to his original form by Rosen, using Pangu Realm’s cycle of rebirth to return him to the time when his identity was Xuantian.

Seeing their master emerge from the Pangu World and regain his memories, Rosen and Meng Die were both very excited.

"Master, we’ve finally revived you!" Meng Die hugged Xuantian’s leg and said.

Xuantian’s mouth twitched as he said, "Sorry, my leg is not for hugging, but for kicking."

Upon hearing this, Meng Die’s mouth twitched too, then she kicked Xuantian’s leg.

"Owww!" Xuantian screamed in pain.

Xuantian immediately explained, "That’s not what I meant. I meant my leg is for kicking others, not for you to kick me."

"Oh, I thought you meant your leg was for being kicked." Meng Die said with a defiant look.

Faced with such a mischievous disciple, Xuantian shook his head and sighed, then looked towards his second disciple, whom he had taken after his death.

"I finally have a relatively normal disciple. All the experts under me before were somewhat abnormal. Meng Die was the most abnormal, followed by the Barefoot Immortal," Xuantian said to Rosen.

Reflecting on Xuantian’s words, Rosen thought Xuantian himself seemed a bit abnormal. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have gotten the non-normal human rankings wrong.

Arguing, he said, "No, the Barefoot Immortal is obviously more abnormal than Xuantian. How can you say Meng Die is more abnormal?"

"I understand your point," Xuantian said. "The Barefoot Immortal often wears a hundred pairs of socks and releases a massive aura. Although such behavior isn’t quite normal, it’s within reason since aura is his attack style."

While Xuantian was speaking, the Barefoot Immortal attempted to bribe him with his foot grime.

Xuantian continued, "By comparison, Meng Die is extremely abnormal. Why would a perfectly good person always think of themselves as a butterfly and cosplay every day? Such a child cannot be saved, you know."

"Ah!" Hearing this, Rosen finally realized Xuantian’s way of judging.

Just when Rosen thought Xuantian had finished speaking, Xuantian added, "Moreover, Meng Die has actually lived for thousands of years but has always maintained the appearance of a five-year-old, implying a significant issue—her brain probably suffered trauma, ceasing development."

Listening to Xuantian’s explanation, Rosen looked at Meng Die’s petite figure and indeed saw signs of arrested growth.

"So what should we do? We should help Meng Die," Rosen said sympathetically.

"Helping her is simple. We must enter Meng Die’s Chapters and review her childhood to find the cause and save her," Xuantian concluded, as Rosen seemed to recall something.

Rosen said, "I remember Meng Die once mentioned that during her childhood, she was with her sister when a sudden Little Ice Age froze her sister to death, while she managed to escape danger by time-traveling. Her arrested development likely started then."

Hearing Rosen’s account, Xuantian’s expression became serious, and he sighed, "I didn’t expect you to care for her more than I, as her master, do. Since you understand her so well, let’s go together—I’ll take you back to that time and attempt to erase Meng Die’s childhood psychological shadow so she can grow normally."
