"These three individuals had once made a name for themselves in the history of the Holy Profound Continent, but it was a long time ago. They are not of this generation."
A gentle and charming smile curved Emperor Beichen's lips as he tightened his grip on Baili Hongzhuang's hand.
Normally, Baili Hongzhuang always wore a strong and invincible facade, capable of withstanding anything. But now, her curious gaze towards him made him feel cherished and pleased.
His Hongzhuang, his wife, only revealed this side of herself in front of him.
"I see."
Baili Hongzhuang lightly nodded her head, and a few strands of contemplation appeared in her clear eyes. It seemed that a thousand years could bring about many changes.
During her time, the three major abysses did not exist. However, the Holy Profound Continent was vast and had many hidden places.
If she hadn't been fond of exploration back then, she wouldn't have crossed over to this place because of the Chaotic Ring.
"Since you're so familiar with the Blood Abyss, have you been there?"
Baili Hongzhuang's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly. Emperor Beichen must be someone who frequently goes on adventures.
Even though Emperor Beichen was the Young Sect Master of the Heavenly Glimpse Sect, the higher one's status, the more responsibilities one bore.
With so many outstanding cultivators in a sect, how could Emperor Beichen secure his position without constantly improving his own strength and not letting anyone catch up to him?
Judging from Emperor Beichen's understanding of the Blood Abyss, he must have been there before.
A warm smile bloomed on Emperor Beichen's lips as his clear gaze looked outside the carriage, faintly revealing a tinge of nostalgia and longing.
"Back then, it was my Master who told me about the Blood Abyss. The first time I went to the Blood Abyss, he was the one who took me there."
Baili Hongzhuang noticed Emperor Beichen's expression, and her gaze gradually softened. It seemed that Emperor Beichen's Master held great significance to him, being both a father and a teacher figure.
Suddenly, Baili Hongzhuang realized that she had never heard about Emperor Beichen's parents, despite knowing that he was raised by his Master.
Why was that?
For a moment, various thoughts floated through Baili Hongzhuang's mind, but she couldn't confirm her speculations.
When Emperor Beichen withdrew his gaze, he noticed Baili Hongzhuang's absent-minded look. He lovingly waved his hand in front of her eyes.
"Wife, what are you thinking about so seriously?"
Baili Hongzhuang snapped back to her senses, and a sweet smile curved on her lips. "It's nothing."
Although Baili Hongzhuang didn't say anything, Emperor Beichen could perceive the fleeting doubt and complexity in her eyes.
Obviously, Baili Hongzhuang couldn't have been thinking about nothing.
Emperor Beichen's expression turned gentle, and he gently opened his lips. "Wife, if there's something you want to say, you can tell me. Between you and me, there's no need to worry or hide anything."
Baili Hongzhuang's heart trembled slightly. Emperor Beichen always managed to grasp her emotions. She had hidden it quite quickly, yet Emperor Beichen still noticed.
However, Baili Hongzhuang didn't know that it wasn't Emperor Beichen's skill in understanding people's hearts, but rather his exceptional concern for her.
He paid extraordinary attention to every move she made.
That's why he was able to catch the fleeting changes in her eyes.
Resting her head on Emperor Beichen's shoulder, Baili Hongzhuang wrapped her left hand around his waist. Only then did she lift her head and gaze at Emperor Beichen.
Seeing Baili Hongzhuang's appearance, Emperor Beichen knew that he was right.
His large palm lovingly rubbed Baili Hongzhuang's head. "You can speak."
