[I remember now. At this point in time, Jiang Nannan probably hadn't gone through that incident yet. That made sense. If she had, she wouldn't just have kept quiet and avoided Xu Sanshi—she would've cursed him out.]
[Heh, heh, heh... Aside from that tacky incident, there wasn't much else worth saying about Jiang Nannan.]
[The only plot points I vaguely remember are the Sea God Covenant Blind Date Convention and Qiankun Asking Love Valley... Jiang Nannan first chose to accept Xu Sanshi at the Sea God Covenant Blind Date Convention and got together with him, then untangled the knot in her heart at Qiankun Asking Love Valley and forgave Xu Sanshi for what he'd done.]

[Wasn't this just a textbook case of a victim falling in love with her abuser? This plot... was seriously outrageous!]
[Oh, no. More accurately, the entire Qiankun Asking Love Valley plot was shit.]
[Jiang Nannan completely forgiving Xu Sanshi and all that was just one part of a whole pile of shit.]
Accept Xu Sanshi... forgive Xu Sanshi?
Jiang Nannan lowered her head, disbelief flashing in her eyes.
If she were honest with herself, if what Ao Yao had written in the diary really happened, she felt she might never be able to forgive Xu Sanshi. She might even hate him forever, no matter what he did.
But the diary said she would forgive Xu Sanshi?
That... was impossible!
After learning about this, just looking at Xu Sanshi made me feel sick. And you're saying that after going through something like that myself, I'd forgive him?
Jiang Nannan couldn't help raising her head to glance at Xu Sanshi, who was walking away with Bei Bei.
Qiankun Asking Love Valley.
This wasn't the first time the name had appeared in Ao Yao's diary.
Though Zhang Lexuan sympathized deeply with what Jiang Nannan had been through, she instinctively sensed what mattered. Ao Yao had mentioned Qiankun Asking Love Valley before, but it seemed no one had taken it seriously. Now that he'd brought it up again, she finally realized what she'd missed.
What exactly was Qiankun Asking Love Valley?
A place... or some kind of event?
Zhang Lexuan closed her eyes and carefully recalled Ao Yao's diary, piecing together everything it had said about Qiankun Asking Love Valley.
First, Ao Yao had mentioned Qiankun Asking Love Valley for the first time in connection with a plot in which Ning Tian changed from a girl into a man. He had also mentioned Sky Dream Ice Silkworm forcing himself on Ice Empress.
Second, although Ao Yao had only mentioned it in passing, he'd clearly stated that the first-year student Dai Huabin had also appeared in Qiankun Asking Love Valley.
And now, there was this.
Jiang Nannan had untangled the knot in her heart at Qiankun Asking Love Valley and forgiven Xu Sanshi.
Since Ao Yao had mentioned Qiankun Asking Love Valley several times, that meant the place—or event—was definitely important. It was also something that revolved around the Child of Destiny, Huo Yuhao.
Whether it was Ning Tian, Dai Huabin, or Jiang Nannan, perhaps they'd all been dragged into it against their will.
There was still far too little information... She couldn't figure out what Qiankun Asking Love Valley was.
But Zhang Lexuan had to admit that she'd grown intensely curious about Qiankun Asking Love Valley.
What's more, she had a faint feeling that this place might have something to do with her, too.
Zhang Lexuan opened her eyes and suddenly smiled.
If she wanted to understand Qiankun Asking Love Valley, she didn't actually need to guess. She just had to get Ao Yao to bring it up himself, didn't she?
With that thought, Zhang Lexuan didn't hesitate. She took out the small jade stone she'd been keeping close to her chest.
[Moon Ma: Have you noticed that Qiankun Asking Love Valley has come up quite a few times already?]
[Cat Master: Now that you mention it, it really has. If I remember right, it's come up... three times in total.]
[External Brain: That's right, three times. Does anyone know about a place called Qiankun Asking Love Valley, or heard of it before?]
[Flute Blowing Pot Smashing Expert: Uh... why are you all focused on Qiankun Asking Love Valley? Am I the only one who feels bad for Jiang Nannan?]
[Likes Every Day...: If it were me, I'd have burned Xu Sanshi's thing to ashes by now.]
[Proud Fire Phoenix: @Likes Every Day... Don't say that—no, actually, do say that! But if it were me, I'd go even further. First I'd burn that thing off, then pluck him and peel his skin or something, and finally burn him into a lump of charcoal.]
[I'm Really Not a Face-Con: Exactly. Then I'd say, "Damn Evil Soul Master! How dare you impersonate a student of Shrek Academy? Your crimes are unforgivable!"]
[Grass (a kind of plant): ???]
[Proud Fire Phoenix: ???]
Ma Xiaotao felt as though she'd just been called out, but she had no proof.
Before she could speak up in the group chat to object, the messages started coming in again.
[Moon Ma: Have you ever wondered what kind of being could turn a girl into a man?]
[Likes Every Day...: I think the diary could definitely do that.]
[Flute Blowing Pot Smashing Expert: The diary... probably wouldn't go that far, right? Turning into a man and all that? I don't want that.]
[Moon Ma: Maybe a god could do it, too?]
[Tata Will Cover You: What kind of bored god would go around turning girls into men for no reason? If a god like that really existed, they'd have to be an evil god, right?]
[Deep Clouds Unknown: No... Even if a god could turn girls into boys, only Sea God Tang San would deserve to be called an evil god!]
[Grass (a kind of plant): I'm warning you, @Deep Clouds Unknown, don't you dare insult Ancestor Tang San again, you bastard!]
[Deep Clouds Unknown: Heh. I'll say what I want, I'll say what I want. Got a problem with it? Then keep it to yourself! Trash Tang San! Evil Tang San! Tang San the degenerate! Down with that bastard Tang San!]
Watching the group chat veer off topic again, Zhang Lexuan couldn't help taking a deep breath.
She might as well forget about waiting for one of them to become the Water Spraying Dragon King and ask about Qiankun Asking Love Valley... So today, I'll be the Water Spraying Dragon King!
[Moon Ma: Maybe Qiankun Asking Love Valley is some kind of thing left behind by a god.]
[External Brain: So?]
[Moon Ma: So... I'm curious about Qiankun Asking Love Valley. Something left behind by a god is pretty fascinating, isn't it?]
[Touch and Prosper for Three Years: Um... wait a minute. Can someone explain what "went to the wrong door" means?]
As soon as that was said, the group chat fell silent.
Seeing that no one was saying anything anymore, Three-Eyed Golden Appearance grew anxious.
You all chat up a storm when I'm quiet, but the moment I say something, nobody says a word. What's that supposed to mean?
