Seeing Baili Hongzhuang's carefree and joyful demeanor, Emperor Beichen couldn't help but furrow his handsome brows. "Do you take what I said seriously?"
As the young master of the Tiangang Sect, he had seen his fair share of the world. Even if it wasn't a divine artifact, a relatively good weapon would still cause a fierce competition.
How could he not worry when Baili Hongzhuang seemed so indifferent?
If news about the divine artifact were to spread, he feared that he would have to flee with Baili Hongzhuang. Such a precious treasure would undoubtedly attract the attention of various sects and prominent families.
In the next moment, Baili Hongzhuang suddenly hugged Emperor Beichen, pressing her cheek against his chest with a smile of happiness and reassurance.
"Beichen, I have never told anyone about this news. I just wanted to tell you."
Upon hearing Baili Hongzhuang's words, Emperor Beichen's body stiffened slightly, but his gaze softened in the next second.
Since his wife had never shared this information with anyone before, it meant that she also understood the importance of this divine artifact.
However, she chose to tell him, which indicated the extraordinary level of trust she had in him.
She was gambling, gambling on the worthiness of their relationship.
Emperor Beichen couldn't help but feel moved. If Baili Hongzhuang lost this bet, she would be risking her life.
It was evident how deep her affection for him was.
Emperor Beichen embraced Baili Hongzhuang, feeling that their hearts were even closer than before.
...
"Wife, what kind of life did you lead before?" Emperor Beichen curiously looked at Baili Hongzhuang. He was equally curious about her previous life.
He used to think that he understood Baili Hongzhuang, but now he realized that what he knew about her life was far from the truth.
He wanted to know every detail about Baili Hongzhuang's past. He hadn't been a part of her previous life, but he could learn about it now.
As for the future, he would always be a part of Baili Hongzhuang's life.
"I used to be the head of the Baili Clan," Baili Hongzhuang smiled faintly. Now, she had someone to listen to her talk about her past life, and it truly made her happy.
This matter had always been weighing on her heart, with no one to share it with. Over time, it became a bit suffocating.
If she were to share this news with others, they would surely think she had gone mad.
Now, having someone closest to her listen to her was incredibly satisfying.
Upon hearing Baili Hongzhuang's words, Emperor Beichen understood that the Baili Clan she mentioned was indeed a prominent and influential family.
In this moment, Emperor Beichen finally understood why Baili Hongzhuang exuded such a compelling aura. It was astonishing to witness such presence in the younger generation.
Now that he knew she was once the head of a prestigious clan, he understood.
Those in positions of power possessed an aura far beyond ordinary people.
Even though Baili Hongzhuang had traversed through time, her soul remained, and thus her aura persisted.
"Wife, is there still a Baili Clan in the current Shengxuan Continent?" Baili Hongzhuang couldn't help but look up at Emperor Beichen, her eyes filled with hope.
Even after a thousand years, she truly wished that the Baili Clan still existed.
