Unfortunately, that has nothing to do with them and they will never know.

Xiao Tangqiu suddenly asked, "If I end this experiment, you will stay here forever, right?"

Meng Xinghe looked at Xiao Tangqiu deeply and did not answer.

Xiao Tangqiu gritted his teeth and finally made up his mind: "Then I will end this experiment and send everyone else back to the real world. I will stay with you... The two of us will stay in this world together. I will stay with you!"

Meng Xinghe was silent for a long time, then suddenly laughed: "I'm very happy. I'm very happy that you are willing to stay with me... But do you remember what you said to me before in the 'Test of the Sword of the God of Light'?"

"——If it was you two years ago, maybe you would stay for me, but you won't do that now."

Xiao Tangqiu gritted his teeth and said, "I have changed my mind now!"

Meng Xinghe shook his head: "No, you have already moved on, and you should move on... Let go of the past and look forward."

"You shouldn't stay. This world doesn't belong to you. You shouldn't stay in this desert full of programs, which is actually empty. You shouldn't stay and die with me. The more exciting real world outside belongs to you. You deserve a more wonderful life..."

Xiao Tangqiu's eyes gradually turned red. "Are you kidding me?! How could you possibly ask me to leave you alone at this moment? Seven years ago, you became like this to save me. If I still leave you without hesitation seven years later, wouldn't I be too heartless?"

Xiao Tangqiu stepped forward and grabbed Meng Xinghe's wrist: "I will end this experiment and send everyone else back to the real world, but I want to stay with you!"

Meng Xinghe stared at Xiao Tangqiu. After a moment, he asked softly, "...even if the consequence is brain death along with me?"

Xiao Tangqiu said without hesitation: "Of course!"

Meng Xinghe chuckled softly, "If this is still a test of the Sword of the God of Light, you've already lost."

Xiao Tangqiu sighed: "Then I accept it..."

"Okay, I agree that you can stay with me..." Meng Xinghe chuckled, "But you have to end this experiment first and send the others back to the real world."

Xiao Tangqiu nodded. Even if Meng Xinghe didn't say it, he would definitely send Tang Mianmian and the others back to the real world. After all, they were the most innocent people involved.

"What should I do?"

"It's very simple," Meng Xinghe said calmly, "Go and unplug my oxygen tube. As long as I die, everything will be over."

Xiao Tangqiu: "...are you kidding me?!"

Meng Xinghe's expression was calm: "I'm not kidding. Only by unplugging my oxygen tube can the experiment stop and everything end."

Xiao Tangqiu was stunned for a moment: "But..."

If that happens, Meng Xinghe will die soon!

"Don't worry, even if you pull out my oxygen tube, my consciousness can still remain here for a while. I am the master of this world and can even control the time of this world. If you stay with me, I can create a new life for us in my final moments..." Meng Xinghe's tone was very calm, "Just like what you saw in the test of the Sword of Light, it can start from now, or from seven years ago, or even from when we were just born. We can live to be over eighty years old, and then before we both become completely brain dead... die of natural causes of old age."

Xiao Tangqiu fantasized for a moment and laughed: "That's good, let's do this..."

"Go ahead," Meng Xinghe smiled at Xiao Tangqiu, "go and unplug my oxygen tube."

Xiao Tangqiu nodded: "Okay, let me end this."
