Chapter 1145: Chapter 88 Memory Revival_3
...
"Ah Dai, Ah Dai." All her memories had fully returned, and Xuan Yue clearly remembered that her original intention for learning Holy Magic with her grandfather was entirely to see Ah Dai again! Ah Dai, are you well? Where are you? Were the elves rescued? Ah Dai, Ah Dai.
Xuan Yue’s body trembled slightly with excitement, as the longing that had slumbered for three years burst forth. Tears streamed down her face, and even the powerful Sacred Aura couldn’t suppress her heart’s yearning for Ah Dai, that simple and honest young man who held such an important place in her heart. She had realized why she had firmly rejected Ba Budoʻi, it was because her heart could no longer hold anyone else, there was only room for Ah Dai.
Seeing Xuan Yue’s tears, Ba Budoʻi snapped to his senses and tentatively asked, "Yue Yue, what’s wrong? Did brother speak too harshly? Don’t cry, I won’t press you, we can talk about this later."
Xuan Yue gently shook her head, her beautiful eyes filled with a dismal haze, "No, Brother Ba Budoʻi, what you said earlier was right. It’s because of Ah Dai that I can’t accept you. It’s been three years, I’ve been apart from him for three years, but I still know my heart clearly, I love him, I love Ah Dai, I’m sorry, I’m sorry." After speaking, Xuan Yue turned and ran towards the Temple of Light, her teardrops scattering in the air, twinkling faintly in the sunlight.
Ba Budoʻi was utterly stupefied, his hopes completely shattered. His body swayed slightly, and Xuan Yue’s final words sealed his last sliver of hope. His chest felt tight and suffocating, as indescribable emotions continuously assaulted his soul. Yue Yue was in love with someone else, what should he do? As the first formidable youth of the church, Ba Budoʻi, like a severely ill person, leaned on the balustrade in front of the Temple of Light and walked away step by step, with a broken heart.
In the Temple of Light, Xuan Yue stood quietly at the center of the temple, her delicate body trembling slightly. Longing surged through her like a tide, her love for Ah Dai becoming clearer and more intense. Once the sealed longing of three years had broken its barriers, it was unstoppable; her tears flowed incessantly, in her heart, there were only two words—Ah Dai.
"I have to find him." Xuan Yue murmured, her eyes brightening with an extraordinary determination. "I must find him, I must find Ah Dai. At this moment, she felt clearly that no one could stop her yearning for Ah Dai. She suddenly turned and dashed towards the grand doors of the Temple of Light, no longer desiring to practice Holy Magic, not even the Sky God could curb the emotions swelling in her heart.
"Hey, Yue Yue, why are you in such a hurry, what are you doing? How was your training today?" An elderly voice sounded, and in her rush, Xuan Yue ran into a warm embrace. The gentle Divine Energy enveloping her slightly calmed her excitement. Looking up, she saw the person who had suddenly appeared was her grandfather—the Pope.
The Pope stroked Xuan Yue’s long hair and kindly said, "What’s the matter with my little Yue Yue today? Why is your heart so troubled?" He cradled Xuan Yue’s face and tenderly wiped the tears from her cheeks. "Why are you crying?"
Choking back sobs, Xuan Yue said, "Grandfather, I—I remembered Ah Dai. I don’t want to train anymore. Can you let me go find Ah Dai, please? I miss him so much! Why? Why did I forget about him these past years, only to remember him now?"
A hint of surprise flashed in the Pope’s eyes. After Xuan Yue had completed her initiation, aside from practicing Holy Magic, she had become indifferent to all else. This sudden change surprised him. Although he preferred this emotive Xuan Yue over the one filled with Sacred Aura and detached from earthly concerns, he still worried that the emotional change might affect Xuan Yue’s cultivation. He quickly activated his Divine Power, and a rich stream of Divine Energy enveloped Xuan Yue’s delicate body, probing her internal condition. Her Magic Power hadn’t changed, just her state of mind had destabilized. Sighing, the Pope said, "Grandfather doesn’t know why you forgot him, perhaps it was God’s will. Everything in this world is predestined by the heavens, and your recalling him now is also a divine arrangement. Yue Yue, can you tell Grandfather exactly how you feel about Ah Dai?"
Xuan Yue’s cheeks flushed, and lowering her head she said, "Grandfather, I love Ah Dai. Even though we’ve been apart for three years, I clearly understand my own feelings. I love him, I truly love him so much. Even though he doesn’t have any outstanding qualities, I just love him. Being with him, I feel an inexplicable sense of security. Although he isn’t handsome and doesn’t come from a noble background, and isn’t outstanding in any way, without any reason, I just love him. Grandfather, Yue Yue begs you, please let me go to him." Even in her excitement, Xuan Yue knew clearly that if the Pope opposed, she couldn’t possibly go to find Ah Dai. She slowly knelt on the ground, her beautiful eyes misty, a sorrowful expression appearing on her exquisite face.
The Pope sighed softly and, with a wave of his hand, gentle Golden Energy lifted Xuan Yue’s delicate body. "Child, don’t rush. Listen to Grandfather, okay?
