"Smack!"

The door was opened, and several people who had been eavesdropping appeared in front of Qi Yu.

Hua Nongying, Yi Xiangfeng... and Xu Shen Shen?

Xu Shengsheng looked conflicted.

She had originally come to help, but when she saw Hua Nongying and Yi Xiangfeng squatting furtively in front of the door, she became curious and went over to investigate.

As it turned out, the voice inside the room was clearly that of Qi Yu, who was already dead!

Hua Nongying's rambling further corroborated her suspicions.

Qi Yu is not dead!

When Xu Shen Shen saw the familiar face of the person who came out of the door, her heart trembled.

Her finger trembled as she pointed at Qi Yu, "You...you..."

Qi Yu hadn't expected to see Xu Shen Shen again, but she was so embarrassed that she could dig a hole in her toes. Before Xu Shen Shen could finish saying "You...", she grabbed Xu Shen Shen's finger and pointed to Yi Xiang Feng's room.

"Didn't I tell you before that your sister asked me to make something for you? It's almost finished now, and it's in Young Master Yi's room. Go see for yourself."

Upon hearing the message left to her by her deceased sister, Xu Shen was stunned for a moment, then ran towards Yi Xiangfeng's house.

The things her sister left her, so that she would no longer be sad.

She pushed open the door, and just then, the man who had been carefully placed on the bed woke up.

Mu Luo sat up with a splitting headache and immediately started looking for Xu Lanyue. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Xu Lanyue lying peacefully with her eyes closed beside him, and then noticed the unfamiliar surroundings.

Did he... just see Qi Yu?

Just as he was frowning in thought, a trembling voice came from the side.

"Mu Luo...Senior Brother..."

Mu Luo turned his head, and Xu Shen Shen looked at him and Xu Lan Yue lying beside him with tears in her eyes.

"deeply?"

Having been away from the Spirit Academy for so long, everything Mu Luo learned there seemed to be shrouded in a hazy veil, making it difficult to see clearly.

I just ran into Qi Yu, and now I've seen Xu Shen Shen...

Xu Shen bit her lip and approached slowly, as if she couldn't believe what she was seeing.

She looked at her sister lying beside Mu Luo, who seemed to be just sleeping and should have been dead, and asked, choking back tears, "Sister, what happened to her?"

Could it be that the gift Qi Yu mentioned, the gift her sister left for her to stop being sad, was actually that her sister hadn't died?

Xu Shen Shen looked hopeful, but Mu Luo hurriedly pulled the blanket over Xu Lan Yue.

He remained silent for a long time, unsure of what to say.

Unable to bear Xu Lanyue's death, he fell into demonic cultivation.

At that time, he saw a martial arts manual in Xu Lanyue's room called "Puppet Master". He then collected Xu Lanyue's remains and used the puppet technique to "bring Xu Lanyue back to life".

Unfortunately, a puppet is still just a puppet, and the side effects of practicing forbidden techniques began to appear; he started to lose the ability to distinguish between illusion and reality.

Later, after once again mistaking a soulless puppet for the living Xu Lanyue, he felt utterly exhausted and contemplated ending his life, until…

The Blood Fiend Cult's Holy Maiden, named Burning Heart, said she had a way to bring Lan Yue back to life.

As long as he willingly becomes her puppet.

Mu Luo agreed.

But after burning his heart, he did nothing more, only telling him to wait patiently.

Only today, she brought herself along, so that he could accompany her to see her old friend.

Mu Luo did not grasp the deeper meaning at the time.

Until he met Qi Yu.

But for some reason, his memory began to become muddled again, and he even... turned his sword against Qi Yu.

etc……

Did Qi Yu say something...?

“Mu Luo, Xu Lanyue’s soul is with me. I can bring her back to life.”

Mu Luo suddenly looked at the blue lotus flower on the table, which was shimmering with a faint glow.

At that moment, the lotus flower flickered rapidly, as if it were trying to say something.

He almost staggered off the bed and ran towards the lotus flower in two quick steps.

He picked up the lotus flower, nervously leaned close to its ear, and asked, "Lan Yue, is that you?"

Xu looked at his actions with confusion, got up and walked to the bedside, lifting the quilt.

Convinced that her sister was still alive, she exclaimed excitedly, "She's covered up so tightly, she must be suffocating..."

The last word of her coquettish complaint stuck in her throat. She stared at the horrifying stitches on Xu Lanyue's neck, completely stunned.

Her breathing became rapid, and countless thoughts flashed through her mind.

This is... the gift her sister left for her?

Why……

Her mind was unstable, and her vision was blurry and dizzy, as if someone was shrill and mocking her ridiculousness and pitifulness.

“Shen Shen… Sister is here.”

A faint, almost inaudible sound suddenly rang out.

Xu Shen covered her head, regaining her senses. She was somewhat incredulous, standing straight, afraid that the voice behind her was just her imagination.

"Shen Shen, don't be afraid, your sister is back."

That voice belonging to Xu Lanyue rang out once again.

“Shen Shen, Lan Yue has really, really come back.”

A deep, husky voice sounded behind her; it was Mu Luo's voice.

Mu Luo also said that her sister is back...

No, Mu Luo just lied to her.

They were all lying to her...

Tears streamed down Xu Shen's face. She stared blankly at the wall in front of her when she suddenly felt a pair of hands reach out from behind her, as if someone had hugged her from behind.

Xu Shen Shen bit her lip tightly and turned around.

Xu Lanyue, half-real and half-illusory, as if she might disappear at any moment, stood behind her and said with a slight smile, "Shen Shen, why are you crying now that you've seen your sister?"

Xu Shen Shen finally couldn't hold back and burst into tears.
