Overriding the Heaven

"If you dare take another step forward, I'll kill you." Chu Yan's cold voice came from his back.    

The figure behind the Gates of Hell paused.    

After a while, he turned his head and saw Chu Yan's eyes.    

Killing intent filled the air.    

Ever since he had awoken behind the Gates of Hell and entered this youth's body, this self-proclaimed, coexisting period of time had allowed him, who had read countless people, clearly understood Chu Yan's temperament.    

But at this moment, he was shocked to realize that this was the first time he saw such a warning look in Chu Yan's eyes.    

Even though he knew that Chu Yan's words were only a threat …    

There was no way the enemy would be able to kill him.    

But at this moment, he could actually feel the other party's decisiveness and ruthlessness in his heart.    

The person behind the Gates of Hell tilted his head to look at the arched door.    

On the other side of the door.    

On the other side of the door stood Chu Yan, him, and two palace maids, two eunuchs.    

On the other side of the door, there was an existence that Chu Yan was not willing to let him see.    

After a moment of silence, the person behind the Gates of Hell stepped to the side, refusing to enter.    

In fact, even he himself was surprised at this moment.    

How many years had it been? Even he could not remember the last time he had compromised.    

After standing by the side of the arch for a while, Chu Yan's expression slowly calmed down.    

He looked at the arch, took another deep breath, and then, as if he had made up his mind.    

Behind the arch was a grove of peach trees.    

The peach blossoms bloomed like a sea of flowers that extended into the distance.    

A gentle breeze blew, causing the peach branches to sway slightly. The entire sea of flowers seemed to have come to life.    

The delicate petals that fell from the sky were gently swaying and swaying in the wind.    

She was a little over twenty years old, but she was already dressed as a woman. She was kneeling on the ground, her eyes filled with gentleness as she said something to the little boy in front of her.    

The little boy was naturally the five-year-old Chu Yan Jr., who had stopped moving at this moment and was nodding his head like a little adult.    

As for that woman —    

Chu Yan's breathing seemed to have stopped.    

Step by step, he walked forward with extreme difficulty.    

The woman's face became clearer and clearer in his line of sight.    

Chu Yan did not dare turn his gaze, and did not want to.    

He was afraid that once he shifted his gaze, the next time he wanted to see her, it would be a matter of years.    

The woman smiled gently and warned Little Chu Yan in a soft voice.    

Little Chu Yan nodded repeatedly.    

The wind blew, and the peach blossoms slowly swayed.    

This scene seemed to have frozen in Chu Yan's heart at this moment.    

In the next moment, the woman stood up, Little Chu Yan also turned and walked out of the peach forest with her mouth closed.    

It was at this time that Chu Yan realized that he had unwittingly walked to the side of this woman just now.    

Little Chu Yan was almost sticking close to his calf as he walked over.    

Moreover, the distance between him and a woman was less than two feet.    

The woman's gaze was gentle and filled with love, looking at the little boy who had just walked away.    

Looking at the woman's gentle and beautiful face which was just inches away from him, Chu Yan could not help but call out softly, "Mother —"    

These two words, had never come out of Chu Yan's mouth in all these years.    

There was even a period of time when Chu Yan thought that he would never have the chance to say those two words again.    

At this moment, his nose was slightly sour.    

In fact, he was actually grateful to that old thing in his heart.    

If it wasn't for him, he wouldn't have such a chance today.    

Not long ago, he was still struggling, still hesitating, still afraid, still questioning whether this meeting had any meaning or not.    

Now, Chu Yan could say that everything was worth it.    

"Good boy." At the same time, the woman's lips twisted into a smile.    

Her tone was also warm and gentle. No matter how vexing one's heart was, it could still calm one down in an instant.    

Chu Yan pursed his lips.    

He knew that these two words were meant for the little boy who was leaving.    

However, at this moment, a smile involuntarily appeared on his face.    

The voice that had long since become indistinct was once again imprinted with a clear imprint along with the two words.    

When the little boy walked out of the peach forest and out of the arch, Chu Yan saw the woman in front of him and slowly turned his head.    

The other party's clear eyes reflected his image.    

"She can see me!"    

Just as Chu Yan was aware of this point, he saw that the woman's eyes were curved, water ripples circulated within them as a look of pity appeared on her face: "You've grown up, it's just like what I imagined you to be."    

Chu Yan was stunned, after a moment, his heart trembled, and tears fell like rain.    

...    

The afternoon sun shone through the peach blossoms, casting speckled shadows in the quiet forest.    

The fragmented shadow slightly tilted and gently swayed, exuding a warm and quiet feeling.    

In a clearing in the forest, there were stone tables and stone benches, and new tea was steaming.    

A young woman of about twenty-three to twenty-four years was sitting there, smiling as she gently caressed the back of the youth who was lying on her lap.    

Chu Yan, who had always been strong in front of others, had never been weak before, now kneeled on the ground. Like a child, he pressed his cheek against a woman's leg, with a satisfied smile on his face.    

It could really be seen.    

And it really could be encountered.    

At this time, Chu Yan did not want to know why others could not see him and why only his mother could see him.    

At this time, he only wanted to experience the gentleness that had been lost for a long time.    

As if she knew what Chu Yan was feeling at the moment, the woman gently caressed Chu Yan's long hair. The expression in her eyes was no different from when she first looked at the child.    

They were all his children.    

One of them had crossed the river of time to arrive from the future.    

"Mother —" After a long while, a light sound came out from Chu Yan's throat, and then, he sniffed.    

"All these years, you must have had a hard time by yourself." The woman sighed.    

Chu Yan's breath tightened.    

He raised his head and looked at the woman in front of him, who was not older than him by more than a few years.    

He really wanted to ask where you were and why you left him.    

But after a long while, Chu Yan did not say anything and only shook his head.    

"It must be very hard. I know all about it, that's why I left those things for you." The woman looked at Chu Yan, "There are some things that I am unable to explain to you in detail right now. When we meet again in the future, I will tell you everything.    

"Mother —" Chu Yan laughed.    

Wiping away the tears flowing from the corners of his eyes, His Highness laughed happily, "I have never blamed you for —"    

The woman reached out her hand, grabbed Chu Yan's face, then lowered her head and pressed it against Chu Yan's forehead: "There are some things that I have to do and that I can only make you suffer.    

"Hmm?" Chu Yan sniffed, "But isn't that my memory?"    

"Think of it as your memory." The woman laughed: I don't have much time, so Chu Yan is good, I'll listen to mother first to tell you some things, okay?    

"Yes." Chu Yan nodded.
