BXBX NOVEL Chapter 417 - 417 Reluctant To Enter...
While floating in the air, Luo Lixi scooped up the seawater with her palms. When she brought her palms in front of her lips, the sweet smell assaulted Luo Lixi\'s senses and she couldn\'t help but take a sniff.
\'It smells so good… What is it?!\' As Luo Lixi thought in wonder, she placed her lips on her palms and slowly drank the water.
Soon after she finished, unbeknownst to her, three gates appeared right above her head. But she didn\'t see any reflection on the water and couldn\'t know.
One of them was black and the fire was burning all over it. The human skull and blood were attached to its whole body.
The second one was shining so brightly that normal people would turn blind if they dared to see it directly. It was made of Holy things and flowers were attached to it. Seemed so alluring and elegant which would make our heart tingle and increase our desire to run for it.
The third one was made of normal wood. The only eye-catching thing about it was that a large clock was attached to its upper part. It looked very ancient and mysterious as it had the aura of both light and dark. Yet, it held the power to have one walk through it and wonder where it would lead one to!
Three pairs of eyes appeared on the three gates at the same time. Afterwards, they glanced down, staring at Luo Lixi fiercely. Even though Luo Lixi didn\'t see any reflection of her on the water, the three pairs of eyes saw the burned self of hers on the water.
"It\'s so sweet…" The unware Luo Lixi thought with a dreamy expression as she looked down on the water. She scooped water again and began to drink.
The water had a miraculous effect as it sealed all of her mental pains and sadness without letting her know.
Looking at this scene, the eyes of the fire gate and clock gate turned to the holy gate. On the other hand, the holy gate\'s eyes bent into the crescent moons, as if happy to see its kin.
While Luo Lixi was busy drinking, the holy gate disappeared from its place. Then, the ocean changed and soon, a vast green land appeared in its place. All kinds of trees began to grow rapidly and fruits and flowers grew crazily on the ground.
Luo Lixi was flustered and dropped to the ground on her butt. With panicked eyes, she saw all of these happening, right in front of her. Right then, a grapefruit grew beside her and a crazy amount of black grapes began to grow on it, that too...on its own.
Luo Lixi widened her eyes and made a large "O" with her lips. After the transformation ended, the grape tree leaned in front of Luo Lixi and plucked all of its grapes and gently placed those on her lap by its tendrils.
Luo Lixi blinked her eyes as she picked up one bunch of grapes and bit off one from the whole bunch. While chewing, she thought, \'I nearly forgot, I am dead… This grape is so tasty… what a pity, I like red ones…\'
Luo Lixi was in a daze as she pondered. The grape tree nodded as if it had understood. The next moment, all the grapes in her hand and lap turned red.
"..." Luo Lixi got startled for a moment when the colour changed. She glanced at the little tree in front of her and smiled, "Thanks…"
She subconsciously reached out and patted its vein. As if the tree was delighted, it bounced on the ground and went away.
Luo Lixi chuckled as she bit off a red one from her hand and then glanced on her lap as she pondered, \'More than 5kg of grapes are here. How can I finish them all?!\'
As soon as this concern appeared, all the grapes vanished, including the ones in her grip.
"…"
Right at that time, a gate materialized in front of her. Soon, the holy gate exposed itself to Luo Lixi yet the eyes didn\'t appear on its body. It strongly resonated with her soul and urged her to go in.
\'Am I supposed to go in?\' Luo Lixi thought as she stood up and stood before the gate. The holy gate began to open itself and soon, chirpings of birds were heard and a soothing melody came from it.
Luo Lixi stood still in her place. Even though her soul had a strong urge to jump in it directly, her heart wavered for a reason. A face appeared in her mind as she called out with longing, My Ruming…
As soon as hesitance appeared on her face, the eyes of the clock gate narrowed. It zoomed on Luo Lixi and didn\'t blink even once. On the other hand, the holy gate began to do everything at its disposal to lure Luo Lixi into its realm.
For every pure soul, it had a strong love and seeing a pure soul in front, it wanted her to enter its realm as soon as possible. But Luo Lixi was reluctant to enter.
Even when she had the illusion that her family might be waiting for her on the other side of the handsome looking gate, she felt that she would never see Sheng Ruming again. The Ruming who was so dear to her life, no, dearer than her life. How would she be able to let him behind when all she could imagine was him in pain?
As soon as Luo Lixi had this thought, the clock gate smirked with its eyes. The fire gate turned to the holy gate and giggled with wide eyes.
The holy and fire gates were natural enemies. Every time, the clock gate snatched a person from the damn holy gate, it felt delighted beyond explanation.
The clock gate disappeared and this time, it appeared right beside the holy gate. Just like the holy gate, it didn\'t have any eyes and opened itself to Luo Lixi.
Luo Lixi widened her eyes when she saw the ancient clock on the other gate. She felt as if it was her destiny, and she should enter it to achieve her unknown goal but what were those, she didn\'t know.
Both gates released terrifying auras which clashed against each other but it didn\'t affect Luo Lixi at all. The woman stepped back and whispered, "What is happening?! Am I in a coma again and imaging these things?! My body loves comas though…"
As Luo Lixi was thinking, a clock appeared right behind her body. It began to move backwards and soon, a ruby chain materialized in the air and then sneakily wrapped itself around Luo Lixi\'s neck.
The chain had a certain someone\'s love, passion, longing, yearning, possessiveness, jealousy, lust which were meant for Luo Lixi and these were the greatest shackles of a pure soul.
The holy gate was busy fighting the clock gate as it feared the damn hooligan would snatch its precious baby again! But, for the nth time, it lost in front of the shrewd child of an unmarried couple.
In the next second, Luo Lixi felt a violent tug around her neck and realised something had lifted her off the ground. Then, a clone of the clock gate appeared horizontally right below her and the force lifting her vanished.
"AHHHHH!!!" Luo Lixi screamed at the top of her lungs as she fell into the endless void. The holy gate cried out silently and several tree tendrils rushed towards Luo Lixi to take her out but at that time, the clone of the clock gate shut its door with a loud Boom!
The eyes of both gates appeared again and the holy gate\'s eyes were brimming with tears.
The holy gate: "Sob~ Damn child of an unmarried couple! You snatched my pure soul again?! How dare you?!"
The clock gate: "Hehe~ Cutie~ Come, bite me!"
The holy gate: "Sob~ sob~ You old child of an unmarried couple! I hate you!"
…
Right after Luo Lixi disappeared, Luo Lixiang\'s soul materialized in the air and the green scenery vanished as the ocean made its appearance.
But unlike Luo Lixi, the young man had burned scars all over his body and a huge bullet hole on his head while his body was wrapped in tattered clothes. Looking at the vicious and terrifying scene, the holy gate snorted in its mind space.
The young man was dropped in the ocean without any mercy and the water changed its colour instantly. Half of it turned into burning lava while the other half remained the same.
Luo Lixiang\'s body burned in lava and got healed at the same time. Looking at this, both the holy gate and fire gate snorted.
The holy gate: "He\'s evil. I won\'t take him. Let him atone for his sins here!"
Right after saying that, the holy gate disappeared with a haughty aura.
The fire gate: "He\'s pure. I won\'t take him either. Let him wash off his good karma here!"
The fire gate disappeared with an overbearing aura.
