Chapter 35 (End of Main Text)

Ye Kemeng was taken aback. It turned out that she had always been a person from this cultivation world, and that her immortal bones had been preserved all along.

No wonder she said everything here felt so familiar.

Ye Kemeng said, "So you knew who I was all along, but you didn't tell me."

Cang Yao was truly wronged. He said, "I also suffered from amnesia at first, didn't I?"

He paused, then added, "During this trip to the ancient secret realm, I remembered many things. It was while I was investigating the whereabouts of your immortal bones that I lost my memory. So, I don't know what they did to your immortal bones afterward. But now I'm certain that the Supreme Elder did not destroy your immortal bones as Void requested. Instead, he tricked Void, not only killing Zhiyu's soul but also fusing his own soul into Zhiyu's body."

And eventually he successfully joined the Kyushu Academy, becoming its renowned Grand Elder.

Ye Kemeng wondered why the elder's voice sounded so familiar. It turned out that he was the young man in the blue robe, Zhiyu, but he wasn't Zhiyu; he was just using Zhiyu's body.

Ye Kemeng said irritably, "What else could it be? It must be that the Supreme Elder discovered that my Immortal Bone could completely suppress the Void, so he took the opportunity to separate his soul from his body and possess his great-grandson. At this time, the Void can't touch him, and everyone thinks that he is Zhiyu. Even you probably entrusted my Immortal Bone to Zhiyu with peace of mind."

Cang Yao was wrongly accused twice in just a few breaths, and he didn't have the strength to refute it. He said, "I know that Zhi Yu has a problem."

Seeing how certain he was, Ye Kemeng looked at him curiously.

Cang Yao said, "What you see here is everything I experienced after going back in time. I was the one who reminded the sect leader that the Supreme Elder was acting strangely."

Ye Kemeng: "Oh, I knew that person had such a discerning eye, seeing through the ugly face of that Supreme Elder in an instant."

Cang Yao continued, "Unfortunately, after rewinding time, I can't do anything anymore; I can only watch the things that happened before happen again."

Otherwise, it would be tampering with the laws of heaven, and the entire cultivation world would probably cease to exist.

Ye Kemeng said, "But that Supreme Elder discovered you."

Cang Yao was silent for a moment, thinking about how to explain, when he heard Ye Kemeng say, "That's why I met you when you were seriously injured. Because when you went back in time, you couldn't do anything, and even your cultivation was gone. But you were discovered by a Supreme Elder whose strength had increased. He was worried that you would reveal his identity and decided to get rid of you, which is why you were so badly injured and that's why I found you."

Seeing that Ye Kemeng had guessed it, Cang Yao simply nodded.

Tears suddenly welled up in Ye Kemeng's eyes. She didn't know why she was crying, but she was just very sad.

She herself had suppressed the void back then, but she, on the other hand, died and ended it all. Leaving Cang Yao alone in this world, he not only had to condense her pitifully few remaining fragments of divine soul, but also had to search for the whereabouts of his own immortal bones…

Ye Kemeng suddenly blurted out, "Back then, wasn't it at our wedding banquet that I suppressed the void by sacrificing my life?"

Seeing that Ye Kemeng had recalled something, Cang Yao asked, "What else did you remember?"

Ye Kemeng recalled some fragments of the past and said, "I remember how handsome you looked in your groom's clothes."

Cang Yao turned his head away uncomfortably.

But Ye Kemeng felt that her self-disclosure at the wedding would probably leave a deep psychological shadow on Cang Yao. She said, "This time, after we deal with Xu Wu and that Elder, we won't have a wedding banquet. We'll go straight to the bridal chamber."

Cang Yao: "...cough cough cough cough."

Ye Kemeng looked at the other person as if casting a divination: "We already had our wedding ceremony a thousand years ago, so we're already husband and wife. What's wrong with going straight to the bridal chamber?"

Cang Yao really wanted to shut Ye Kemeng up, but he couldn't help wanting to hear it, so he whispered, "Mmm."

Ye Kemeng was amused by his unwilling look, so she gently kicked him and said, "The most important thing right now is to get my immortal bone back."

Cang Yao said, "There's no need to rush. The Dean and I have already set up an array, and the Grand Elder has taken the bait. As long as he enters the array, you can also enter the array here, and your bones will return to their original positions and your soul will return to your body."

Ye Kemeng was stunned. It turned out that Cang Yao had planned all of this.

Seeing the curiosity in her eyes, Cang Yao said, "At the time, I knew that going back in time to find the truth about your divine bones would be a matter of life and death, so I set up this plan with the Dean early on. If I can bring you back, no matter what my condition is, this plan can be implemented."

Ye Kemeng suddenly thought of a possibility: if Cang Yao died in the time reversal, and if she herself couldn't return, then the dean would be alone...

"One tree cannot make a forest." Cang Yao seemed to know what she was thinking and said, "Then we can only say that the fate of the cultivation world has come to an end. Let's all quietly wait for death to come."

Because this is a continent abandoned by the gods, it is only through the existence of cultivators like them that they can desperately try to salvage it and save more lives.

Ye Kemeng said, "Although I don't have much of an impression of him, I'm sure he was a very capable person."

Cang Yao smiled this time, a very sincere smile, and said, "Yes, the number one master in the world."

Just as Ye Kemeng was about to say that Cang Yao's smile was really handsome, the array beneath her feet suddenly lit up, and she felt a flash before her eyes before being pulled into a chaotic space.

In this chaos, more terrifying than nothingness, capable of tearing apart all existence, she saw her own divine bones gleaming with golden light.

That was the culmination of her life's cultivation.

Ye Kemeng simply waved her hand, and Shenxian Gu, like a long-lost old friend, happily ran to her side and circled around her.

Ye Kemeng chuckled and patted the Divine Bone. As soon as she touched it, she felt it merge into her body, and her whole body became lighter.

It wasn't until a piercing scream reached her ears that Ye Kemeng saw the dusty little soul that had followed the immortal bone.

That is the soul of the Supreme Elder, and also the Great Elder of the Kyushu Academy.

She looked at the thing and said, "It's this thing that's causing chaos in the entire cultivation world."

As she spoke, she gently clasped her hands together, crushing the wisp of soul into countless dust particles. With a gust of wind, nothing remained.

“I am not nothingness, I am not arrogant, and I will not let you go.”

Ye Kemeng muttered to herself, "If it weren't for that greedy Supreme Elder back then, Zhiyu might have joined forces with Cangyao to suppress the Void so that it could never recover."

But if that's the case, she'll never be able to come back.

Ye Kemeng thought, it's better if she can't come back. As a little cat, when Cang Yao is no longer burdened with his responsibilities here, he can come to Earth to find her. They can live happily together, one person and one cat.

If the kitten still wants to cultivate, she can start from scratch. Anyway, she's so smart and powerful, even if she starts cultivating again, she'll definitely catch up quickly.

Ye Kemeng thought to herself.

Unfortunately, there are no "what ifs".

·

When Ye Kemeng and Cang Yao reappeared on the Endless Wasteland, the Void, which was constantly encroaching and causing chaos, seemed to sense a terrifying presence and retreated repeatedly. However, their combined efforts were like autumn winds sweeping away fallen leaves, leaving the Void no room to retreat until they were strangled to death.

Having killed so many people, devoured so many places, and turned the entire cultivation world into a living hell, the deep-seated hatred of so many years has finally reached the time for revenge.

But for some reason, when facing Ye Kemeng and Cang Yao, Xu Wu still felt an indescribable sense of oppression from them, a sense of oppression that was even greater than the sense of oppression Ye Kemeng had given him when she revealed herself.

People with such profound cultivation possess an awareness of all natural laws, and their perception of threats is even stronger.

Xu Wu immediately felt the pressure from the two people, but he was very surprised. He was certain that they had not cultivated for a single day in all these years. On the contrary, he had been devouring and growing stronger all along.

The three separated after their attack. Cang Yao and Ye Kemeng merely retreated, while Xu Wu was hammered to the ground. His tentacles and slime were all tangled up, making him look like a disgusting monster.

When masters clash, a single move reveals their skill level.

Xu Wu was terrified, but Cang Yao and Ye Kemeng knew that villains die from talking too much. Although they were not villains, they did not want to give Xu Wu time to fight back.

Besides, kittens are experts at taking advantage of your weakness to kill you. Ye Kemeng showed no mercy, and the chaotic power overflowing from her fingertips terrified Xu Wu to the extreme.

As the saying goes, one thing can overcome another. This principle of mutual generation and restraint in the food chain is something even the youngest child can understand. The reason why the Void was able to expand so rapidly, almost destroying the cultivation world, was because no one could use the chaotic power to restrain it.

After thousands of years of attempts, cultivators have finally found a way to control the void.

Ye Kemeng breathed a sigh of relief. She had been a little uncertain before, but now that she saw how vulnerable the void was, she felt only relief.

It's finally all over.

The cultivation world can finally be rebuilt.

She stood in the void, watching the gray-black earth gradually fade away from the nothingness. Everything was devoid of any life, making it look particularly terrifying.

Ye Kemeng didn't know what to think; she felt that rebuilding all of this would be a massive undertaking.

·

Three years later, when Ye Kemeng and Cang Yao traveled to the territory of the small sect where Zhiyu had been, they found that there was still a small hill there, and at the bottom of the hill, someone was carrying a stone about half a person's height with the three characters "Zhiyu Sect" written on it.

Ye Kemeng had a sudden thought. She exchanged a glance with Cang Yao and immediately started walking up the almost invisible path.

At the entrance of the sect, a young man dressed in coarse cloth was fetching water, with a rice-washing bucket beside him, seemingly preparing for cooking.

Hearing footsteps behind him, Zhiyu turned around. He clearly had never seen Ye Kemeng before, but for some inexplicable reason, he felt a connection with her for a moment. Zhiyu put this strange feeling out of his mind and greeted the two with a smile: "I have some simple food here. If you two heroes don't mind, would you like to have a meal with me?"

Ye Kemeng and Cang Yao agreed.
