"Heartless, your love doesn't belong to just one person..."

The voice of the Heavenly Dao came from behind him. Long Qianling stopped abruptly. Before he could turn around, a golden beam struck his chest.

Long Qianling's red eyes snapped open, her body trembling as if she were struggling against something. But after a moment, all the emotions in her red eyes vanished.

"Heartless, go."

The Heavenly Dao spoke again, but Long Qianling did not turn around. He simply nodded slightly and then disappeared into the chaos.

I never imagined your obsession with him was so deep. Even removing the threads of affection wouldn't help. So this time, I'll erase all your memories.

It's a pity, you two are destined to be different.

After staring at the spot where she disappeared for a while, the Heavenly Dao itself vanished into the chaos in a flash.

...

thump!

The platinum-gold figure crashed into a deep mountain somewhere in the human realm. She staggered to her feet, leaning against a large tree.

No! No!

She couldn't forget the little fox!

Don't forget the little fox!

Can't!

Long Qianling clutched her clothes tightly to her chest, gritted her teeth, and bulged the veins on her forehead, looking extremely pained.

Sure enough, the will of Heaven isn't so easily concealed! No, she had to do something! Even if it meant death, she couldn't forget the little fox!

Long Qianling raised her hand with trembling hands, her fingers pressing with difficulty against her brow.

"I could never forget you!"

"puff--"

A mouthful of blood spilled from her mouth as she forcefully etched several words onto her own soul.

"Bai Qingnian, my eternal love, I can never forget you, I can never betray you."

The pain of having words carved on one's soul is unparalleled. Even though she now possesses the power of laws and has been shaped into an ice lotus body, the pain is still excruciating!

Long Qianling's hand suddenly lost its strength, and he fell straight forward to the ground, losing consciousness.

The Heavenly Dao, silently observing her every move, sighed.

She's already gone this far; if you push her any further, she might not even want her life anymore.

That's it.

...

In the demon realm, Bai Qingnian, who was sitting on the throne, suddenly opened his eyes and raised his hand to press against his heart.

It hurts so much...

Bai Qingnian's blue eyelashes drooped slightly, making it impossible to discern her emotions.

Great Black Dragon...where are you? I miss you so much...

"Year after year".

Just then, Zhiyan walked in from outside. Bai Qingnian composed herself, looked up at him, stood up, and stepped down from the throne.

"Father, you've come." Bai Qingnian smiled, but there was no joy in his eyes.

Seeing him like this, Zhiyan couldn't hide her heartache.

"Father came to see you. You should get some rest. The Venerable One and the others will go looking for you. If you continue like this, you might collapse before the Venerable One returns." Zhiyan stepped forward to support him, her voice pleading.

Bai Qingnian raised her hand and gently patted the back of his hand, then shook her head. "I want to wait for her to come back."

"But you can't just wait like this," Zhiyan said, her voice rising several decibels, her face full of disapproval.

Long Qianling is already dead. If he continues to wait day and night, she will never come back. He will probably collapse himself in the end...

Silly Niannian...

"Don't worry, Father, I know what I'm doing." Bai Qingnian gently pushed him away. "Father, it's getting late, you should go back and rest too."

“Nian Nian…” Zhi Yan wanted to say something more, but when she looked up and saw her baby’s melancholy expression, she fell silent.

Bai Qingnian shook his head.

Zhiyan sighed, "Then Father will go back first. You should also get some rest, or Father will be angry."

“I understand every year, Father, go back in peace.” Bai Qingnian gave a forced smile.

Even though Zhiyan didn't want to leave, he eventually left the main hall, looking back every few steps.

Now, Nian Nian needs to be alone for a while.

Perhaps given enough time, he'll accept it and it will come true...

Until Zhiyan's figure disappeared from Bai Qingnian's sight, Bai Qingnian seemed to have lost all her strength, collapsed to the ground, and subconsciously touched her wrist.

But the place was now completely empty.

His marriage contract with the Black Dragon is off...

Pain surged through his heart once more, so intense that he could hardly breathe.

Bai Qingnian didn't know how he got back to the inner hall. When he came to his senses, he was already standing next to the dragon egg.

He raised his hand and gently touched the dragon egg, "Little one..."

The dragon egg lit up for a moment, and then, under Bai Qingnian's gaze, it shook its egg body.

Bai Qingnian sensed and saw it, and was somewhat surprised, "Baby, you can move!?"

As if in response to his words, the dragon egg shook once more.

Now Bai Qingnian could finally see clearly that his baby could really move!

"Baby!" Bai Qingnian excitedly hugged the dragon egg, his voice trembling.

Unseen by him, the power of his exquisite heart was continuously flowing into the dragon egg.

Previously, the dragon egg had been nourished by Long Qianling's life force. She herself was a divine embryo, and now she needed the power of the Linglong Heart. With so many external forces helping her, her growth time was greatly shortened.

She will be able to hatch soon.

swish swish swish —

Suddenly, in the demon realm, which was already deep in the night, countless golden beams of light shot through the clouds and fell directly onto the ground. Immediately afterwards, countless figures flew down from those golden beams of light.
