Liu Mengxian remained steadfast in her choice; she believed in her destiny with Gu Liyan and was confident enough!

"Now that you've made your choice, let's go," the Void Soul said.

"Where do you want to take Xiao Li and her?" Mo Han's voice came from behind.

The illusory soul turned to look at the cold-faced Mo Han and said, "She gave me enough leverage, so I agreed to take them to find true happiness."

"Bargaining chips? Happiness?" Mo Han frowned and looked at Liu Mengxian. "You didn't actually give him 'Lifeline' as a bargaining chip, did you?"

Just as Liu Mengxian was about to speak, the illusory soul smiled and said, "Not only that, but also their memories!"

"What?" Mo Han looked at Liu Mengxian coldly. "Foolish! If you forget Xiao Li, what's the point of all he did?"

“But only in this way can he survive!” Liu Mengxian said, her eyes red.

Mo Han was speechless. Gu Liyan was determined to die and stripped the life force from his body, leaving only the death force inside. Without ordinary means, he would not be able to survive!

Mo Han looked at the illusory soul and asked, "Are you sure Xiao Li can survive?"

The illusory soul chuckled and said, "Of course! My presence standing alive in front of you is the best proof!"

"They've all lost their memories, so how will they recognize each other in the future? And what will happen to their magical powers?" Mo Han asked, frowning.

"After they reincarnate together, they will lose their memories and magic. However, with Liu Mengxian's current physique, she can be guaranteed to inherit some of her memories at the age of 25. But Gu Liyan's body will probably be weaker. After all, he was poisoned too deeply, which damaged his foundation. He probably won't be able to withstand that powerful energy..." the illusory soul said truthfully.

Mo Han frowned deeply. "Isn't there any other way?"

"This is the only way," the Void Soul said.

Liu Mengxian said, "Senior Brother Mo Han, please let me and Xiao Li go. I will definitely find him when I turn 25 and bring him back to the Nine Springs Realm!"

Mo Han glanced at Liu Mengxian and said irritably, "I'm not worried about Xiao Li seeking you out. After all, he's been looking for you time and time again and has experience with it. My only worry now is that your getting close to him might hurt his feelings!"

Liu Mengxian hurriedly swore, "I swear, I will never let Xiao Li be sad because of me!"

Mo Han glanced at Liu Mengxian and said with a serious expression, "Xiao Li came here because of a mission in this world. In order to complete this mission, this world will have to go through another war! As for your choice, you can decide for yourself!"

After saying that, he turned and left without waiting for Liu Mengxian's decision.

"Are you sure?" the illusory soul asked.

Liu Mengxian nodded, "I'm sure!"

The illusory soul nodded. "The world you will reincarnate in is called Earth, and the time is set for 2121 AD. You will remember some of your memories in 25 years. Whether you can find him then depends on you!"

Liu Mengxian nodded, "I will definitely find him!"

The ethereal soul looked at Liu Mengxian with its dark eyes and softly said, "Then, I wish you happiness."

The gate to reincarnation was opened, using the life-and-death pact and their memories as sacrifices, thus correcting their timelines...

Liu Mengxian carried Gu Liyan's corpse into the cycle of reincarnation and departed. Her ethereal soul emerged from the room and came to Mo Han, who was waiting at the door. "They're gone. Is there anything else you want to tell me?"

Mo Han said coldly, "Xiao Li's physical body is dead, but his soul is still under his control. You were just here on his orders, weren't you?"

The illusory soul smiled and nodded. "That's right. In fact, he had already made the worst-case scenario plan before he came. He released my illusory soul in advance. The other one also foresaw this calamity, so he sent Mo Chen to that world to meet him a long time ago."

"I suppose you don't know that yet?" Mo Han looked at the illusory soul suspiciously. "Where's Xiao Tao?"

"The bond between the two is Xiao Tao. What do you think he should do?" Xu Hun smiled.

Mo Han smiled and finally felt relieved. "So it was all planned in advance. I was worried."

"Because this is the only way to escape the Nine Springs Realm!" the illusory soul said bluntly.

Mo Han glanced at the illusory soul and whispered, "Don't let anyone else know about this!"

"Of course!" The illusory soul smiled and said, "My master instructed that if you, senior brother, also wish to escape the Nine Springs Realm, you can make your choice right here! Reincarnation can begin again!"

Mo Han frowned, thought for a moment, and then refused, "No, even if I leave me, I can't go back to the past, let alone find what I want. Besides, this world still needs me to take care of it."

The illusory soul did not insist but nodded, "Okay, I understand. Well then, see you again if fate allows!"

—The end of everything is also a new beginning.

On the night of the full moon, August 14th, in a cold basement, in a simple setting with only a bed and a table and chairs, the dim candlelight shone on her delicate and lovely face. She carefully took out a palm-sized cake, which was the most extravagant dinner she had ever had.

"Dear Ms. Hua Baixian, you will be 25 years old after midnight today. What are your wishes for your future marriage and career?" Hua Baixian asked herself.

After saying this, Hua Baixian clasped her hands together, closed her eyes, and spoke with a devout expression, "I hope that the one who will always love me the most will be dashing, handsome, and loved by all the women in the world, yet he will only dote on me! As for my career, I'll leave it to fate!"

Hua Baixian opened her eyes and looked at the clock beside her. There were 5 seconds left until midnight, 4 seconds, 3 seconds, 2 seconds—

"Whoosh..." Hua Baixian blew out the only candle, plunging the world into darkness. However, the bright moon was very round and luminous, as if it were illuminating the entire night—

"...I met you at the right time, but missed the best opportunity to hold your hand and travel the world together. One mistake led to another, and in the end, we were separated by life and death."
