What To Do If The Heroine Escapes From The Book

When Qiu Wuji announced the decision to make him her ‘direct disciple’, Chu Ge didn’t think too much about it. He subconsciously felt that it was quite reasonable.

Otherwise, he would have to be together with Qiu Wuji on the main peak all the time, how would he explain it to the disciples? It wouldn’t be good if they had to hide whenever someone came to report something, just like sneaky lovers.

As for the future, whether it would cause controversy if his filial piety turned into something else… well, that’s precisely what he wanted to happen. Otherwise, where would be the fun in it?

At this moment, everyone from the Cloud Horizon Sect gathered around to watch, curious to see who this world-shocking genius was. Was he a three-headed, six-armed, two-horned bull? Why would the sect master, who had never taken in disciples for thousands of years, suddenly show such favoritism?

However, amid all the excitement and commotion, Chu Ge suddenly started sweating profusely.

It wasn’t because he was embarrassed by the attention… he realized that he felt an intense sense of crisis within himself. He became aware that if he continued this way, the plot would collapse, and he had to make corrections!

He suddenly woke up to the fact that this was not just about him and Qiu Wuji as a couple; it clearly involved a major change in the world’s plot. The impact would be extremely profound!

In the world of the novel, it was a significant event when Qiu Wuji took in a disciple.

Previously, Qiu Wuji had not revealed any intention to take in disciples. But this was a bug written by a certain creator. In the normal course of events, given her circumstances, it was impossible for her not to take in disciples. She couldn’t live eternally and had already lived for thousands of years. In a few hundred or a few thousand years, she would inevitably die. If she wanted to achieve immortality, she had to ascend to another realm, and the sect still needed someone to take over.

Her direct disciple would most likely be the successor, taking over the entire sect. Overnight, he would stand at the pinnacle of the world.

Now, Qiu Wuji was undoubtedly the number one in the world, and the Cloud Horizon Sect was the top sect in the world, dominating the Nine Provinces… This kind of successor was not a joking matter!

In normal circumstances, there would be a very solemn ceremony, inviting sects from all over the world to witness it.

From now on, the entire core operation of the sect will gradually shift towards “cultivating the young master.” The Nine Provinces Immortal Path will directly include the newly appeared successor of Qiu Wuji as one of the highest observation targets. People will come to make connections, plot in secret, and even seek alliances. All sorts of things will come up.

The profound influence on the world’s direction cannot be fully described in a short time. The plot in the book will undoubtedly go off the rails. Therefore, this instinctively felt inappropriate to him as the ‘Heavenly Dao.’

This matter… indeed needed correction, but there was no need to go to extremes. If the Heavenly Dao himself wanted to solve it, it could be easily patched…

Suddenly, Qiu Wuji felt the pressure of the Heavenly Dao descending, and her obedient little disciple by her side seemed to be near yet far, his aura covering the sky.

In the next moment, the disciples who were watching were all puzzled, looking at each other, not knowing what had happened. Then, under the fierce glares of the various sect officials, they all left.

Why are you staring at us? Weren’t you the ones who took the lead in watching just now… Strange, what were we even watching just now?

As people dispersed, the deacon of the registration hall seemed to have forgotten his previous exclamation of “Sect Master’s direct disciple” and now lowered his voice cautiously, asking Qiu Wuji, “Sect Master, is he really your direct disciple?”

Qiu Wuji’s mind quickly turned, instantly understanding what had just happened… They both had neglected some considerations, leading to the risk of the plot going off track. Chu Ge timely corrected it and “reset” the deacon’s exclamation to now.

Qiu Wuji heaved a sigh of relief. It’s no wonder they didn’t consider these things; who would think about the risk of the plot going off the rails when taking in a disciple? From a certain perspective, this was the sadness of being helpless.

She wanted to break free from fate and be an independent person, and that’s where the problem lies. When the heavenly way one wants to break free from is one’s own man, things become indescribable.

Although Chu Ge made an effort to reset, he only managed to reset the shouting, not stopping himself from mentioning the direct disciple matter. It meant that Chu Ge didn’t plan to completely erase it; he probably intended to patch it differently.

He would rather take some risks and hope to openly be together with me…

The “couple” were in sync, and Qiu Wuji instantly understood his meaning. She suppressed the ripples in her heart and nodded slightly, saying, “Indeed, he is my direct disciple, and not someone I just took in. I have secretly observed and taught him for a long time. He has extraordinary talent and reliable character. Today, I officially include him in the sect. However, he is still at an early stage of cultivation, and sudden publicity might bring harm. You should not spread the news for now. Keep the registration confidential and inform the elders in private.”

“Yes, the Sect Master’s concern is thorough.” The deacon coldly glared at the disciples around the registration hall and sternly said, “Did you hear the Sect Master’s words? If there’s even a word leaked, there will be no mercy!”

The disciples looked at Chu Ge curiously and enviously, and all of them firmly declared, “Yes!”

The deacon then asked Qiu Wuji, “Master, should we make the blood signature now?”

Qiu Wuji paused for a moment, her expression becoming somewhat strange. “Give him a temporary token for now,” she said.

The deacon couldn’t understand but didn’t dare to ask further, so he followed the order. A temporary token was simple, given to distinguished guests at any time. He immediately handed one to Chu Ge.

Qiu Wuji led Chu Ge out with a stiff posture, and through their mental connection, she said in a strange tone, “Hey, now it’s my turn to worry about your identity card!”

Chu Ge found it quite amusing; it was indeed the case.

The sect’s identity token was not just a proof of identity, but also a key to access resources, equipment, and more. Many places required “swiping the card” to enter. Without it, not only could you not enter, but you might also trigger restrictions because you were considered an “outsider,” leading to fatal consequences… Without this token, one would have fewer privileges, and might not even be able to use the internal teleportation formations between peaks.

Additionally, if something happened, and the token shattered, the sect would immediately know, and through divination or other means, they could find the culprit and avenge you. It was a standard feature of a strong sect, but of course, Chu Ge didn’t need this last part.

Unfortunately, this token couldn’t be obtained by just making the Sect Master pull the strings. One had to provide their blood or hair to have a custom token made…

Up until now, they couldn’t bring things in. Every time Qiu Wuji returned, her clothes were left on the bed, and Chu Ge entered purely with his spiritual consciousness, unable to carry any physical items.

Because so far, there was no direct spatial channel established between the two worlds, which was the fundamental reason why their real bodies couldn’t cross over. By utilizing the principle of personal space and combining it with “Heaven and Earth Technique,” Chu Ge could now take things out, but he still couldn’t find a way to bring things in; he couldn’t find the loophole.

When the day came when they could freely send things in, anyone could truly “disappear.” In a sense, that would be invincible…

“Since I can take things out, I’ll be able to bring things in sooner or later,” Chu Ge said with a grin, following behind Qiu Wuji, “No hurry, no hurry. I’m thinking about how to go through the experience of getting an identity card. It’s quite exciting.”

Qiu Wuji remained expressionless. “If you want to experience everything I’ve experienced, then I’d advise you to first put on some see-through lace.”

Chu Ge: “…”

Qiu Wuji whispered, “Did you go off the rails just now?”

“Uh…”

“Then why didn’t you correct the disciple declaration along with it? What are you planning to do?”

Chu Ge smiled, “How could a disciple decide what the master should do? Shouldn’t it be the disciple seeking guidance from the master?”

Qiu Wuji gritted her teeth, “Your disciple over there is asking you know.”

Chu Ge was taken aback, and then the sound of the door opening could be heard. The real-world Qiu Wuji ran into the room, “Chu Ge, Chu Ge, I’m not in the mood to sit there and drink tea. I came back… How do you plan to correct this plot now?”

Chu Ge’s mind split into two, looking at the two Qiu Wujis with a strange expression. His cheeks twitched for quite a while before he murmured, “Double happiness, indeed…”

Both Qiu Wujis simultaneously grabbed Chu Ge’s collar and said, “Go die, pervert!”

“Damn it!” Chu Ge got up from the grass with a disheveled appearance. “Hold on, hold on. Isn’t it enough of a multitask to cultivate and write at the same time? Having two separate dialogues in different places is too much. Let me shut down here for a while, and I’ll talk over there.”

Qiu Wuji snorted and looked up at the sky. “So weak…”

In the real world, Chu Ge carefully removed Qiu Wuji’s hands from his collar and smiled, “Give me a few minutes, I’ll patch it up.”

Qiu Wuji had a serious expression as she watched Chu Ge write in the main text, “Qiu Wuji searched for the White Tiger’s fang but received no news. She was suddenly touched by the realization… Whether she died of old age or succeeded in transcendence, the sect would eventually need to make arrangements for her successor…”

“Previously, she had been determined to transcend, never considering this matter. Now that she encountered a bottleneck, the thought of taking in disciples finally entered Qiu Wuji’s agenda.”

Chu Ge turned to look at Qiu Wuji and smiled. “Setup, laying the groundwork.”

Then he opened the setting document and added a new character description under the character section: “Chu Ge: Disciple of Qiu Wuji, identity shrouded in mystery, with a mysterious origin, suspected to be an incarnation of the Heavenly Dao… The most handsome guy in the world.”

Qiu Wuji: “???”

“What’s wrong? Am I not handsome?”

“It’s not that. Regardless of whether you’re handsome or not, I’ve known all along that you don’t need to rely on your looks… What I’m asking is, is it okay to just directly write Chu Ge into it? Won’t it break the immersion for the readers? Will it seem out of place?”

“It’s fine. It’s just the concept of ‘After Qiu Wuji ascends, the Heavenly Dao protects the Cloud Horizon Sect.’ By not writing him directly in the main text, the readers will probably find it amusing at most, saying that I, Chu Ge, have no shame in writing myself as such an awesome extra character… This kind of situation is quite common. I’ve seen authors write themselves as renowned handsome men from the previous generation. Who would argue with this?”

Qiu Wuji: “…Are all you authors this shameless?”

Chu Ge: “What’s shame? For us, with just this little addition, the presence of this disciple in the world of the book won’t be jarring anymore. That’s the key.”

Qiu Wuji thought for a moment and couldn’t find any flaws for a while. Indeed, it seemed like it could work.

Chu Ge continued, “Later, I can add some narration or side descriptions, saying that Qiu Wuji secretly took in a disciple and is cultivating him. People from the Nine Provinces discuss it, but haven’t seen the true appearance… And with this ‘suspected to be an incarnation of the Heavenly Dao’ foundation, it really becomes me. From now on, it seems I can officially exist in the world of the book. I might even be used directly for some plot of ascension… I need to think about that part more; I might not need to use it.”

Qiu Wuji was quite impressed. He had indeed grasped these things and understood that when he wrote the main text, he was writing himself.

From now on, had Chu Ge truly written “himself” into the book?
