"She couldn't laugh in the end, so all of those things were thrown into the river."

"Xiaoxiao wanted to go down and retrieve them. If all the things were lost, she was afraid that her mother and father would beat her together."

"In the end, he froze to death in that icy river..."

"Fortunately, her soul absorbed the negative energy of the human world, thus forming a demon body and surviving in another way. But her words from her previous life, 'Smile,' became a curse that haunted her. And her hair will remain forever the same."

"From then on, she could only express any emotion through laughter, whether it was great joy or great sorrow. Great sorrow was also great joy; she couldn't distinguish between joy and sorrow."

"She was bound in that river for who knows how many years. Because of her low spiritual power, she was trapped in one place and unable to leave, just like the demon in that department store. It wasn't until the patriarch passed by that day that she was freed from her bondage."

"The head of the family treated her very well, like his own daughter. So when the Feng family was on the verge of collapse and everyone was turning against them, she chose to stay and protect the last piece of land of the Feng family, just like the old ministers."

After Tianya finished speaking, he lit another cigarette, took another drag, and coughed for a long time afterward.

But this time, Fengling ignored him and silently walked towards Xiaoxiao, who was quietly laughing and crying beside her.

He now knew just how heartbroken she was.

It was precisely because of her identity that she was so sad!

He quietly walked up to her and then slowly squatted down.

Gently patting her head, he whispered softly:

"Xiaoxiao, I'm not looking down on you. You're so amazing. You even saved me today, didn't you? How could I look down on you?"

She turned her head, two lines of tears still clinging to her face, along with that cursed smile:

"Haha...Really, young master? You really don't dislike me? Haha..."

The wind chimes nodded, smiling gently:

"Of course! You punched a huge hole in that cubicle door, which really startled me! You were amazing!"

As she spoke, Fengling mimicked her earlier gesture and threw a punch out of thin air.

"Ha! Really? Young Master! Does Young Master really think Xiaoxiao is amazing?!"

She wiped away her tears and resumed her cheerful tone.

"Haha! Elder Tianya, did you hear that? The young master said I'm incredibly skilled! Hehehe..."

Now, the smile on her face no longer seems like a cursed smile, but the happiest smile in the world.

But Fengling still felt a pang of heartache, and smiled as she wiped away the tears on her face:

"certainly!"

So, are you willing to give me another chance?

Wind Chime stretched out her hand in front of her.

Xiaoxiao paused for a moment, then the gloom on her face vanished instantly:

"Is it really possible, young master..."

Despite saying that, she couldn't wait to take the wind chime's hand.

With a happy smile on her face, she looked at the wind chimes with anticipation.

This time, there was no rejection; the two were of one mind and shared the same goal: to merge.

Swish—

Xiaoxiao felt her soul being drawn into the wind chime's body by an irresistible attraction.

Everything was dark; I couldn't see anything.

"Young Master?"

Xiaoxiao couldn't help but speak out; the sound came from inside the wind chime.

"Huh? They're already inside? I didn't even feel them!"

Wind chimes: ? ? ?

I suspect you're driving...

He slowly opened his eyes and looked at his hands.

Unlike the fusion with that guy in the pit last time, this time, the arm didn't turn into a strange gray.

However, some scarlet lines had appeared on his face.

The lines on his face shimmered like talismans.

That's pretty cool, but...

I feel a cool sensation on the top of my head.

He reached up and touched his head; it crunched and cracked.

Um?

Damn, something's weird. Let me touch it again!

Crunch, crunch—

? ? ?

Blanching?

I...

My hair is being blanched!

"cough..."

Tianya suddenly coughed lightly, and Fengling immediately turned her head to look.

The crow, who was secretly laughing just a second ago, immediately stopped laughing and put on a serious expression.

You were laughing just now, weren't you?

"Haha! Elder Tianya! Did you see that? The young master and I have merged! Hehe!"

Her happy voice came from inside the wind chime.

Wind Chime isn't happy at all right now, can you come down...?

Will my hair stop growing later?

He was starting to regret it...

However, the energy within my body is now significantly stronger than before.

Fengling felt a continuous surge of power rising within her, filling her entire body with strength.

I even felt that with this surging power, I could beat those two crazy women tonight!

At this moment, Tianya walked over with a smile:

"Congratulations, young master, on completing your first fusion. You are now at approximately the third tier of strength."
