Empress Dowager Yun Lian of the matriarchal kingdom, in order to save her country, binds herself to a salvation system and embarks on a journey through time and space for healing.
World 1: Th...
Qingxin's entire heart was tied to the ice coffin, and she rushed directly into the sea of fire. But in the blink of an eye, only a handful of white bones remained in the ice coffin.
In an instant, even the ice coffin vanished.
"No! No! Ahhh!!!"
Qingxin, as if possessed, knelt on the ground, her fingers trembling as she picked up the bones one by one.
"Lin'er, Lin'er... Ahhh!!! Why! Why! Why can't we be together even though we love each other?"
"I was so close! I was so close to bringing you back to life! But why!!!"
Qingxin regretted it.
He should have taken out that exquisitely crafted heart sooner.
He picked up all the bones and held them in his arms, laughing maniacally.
"Since I can't see you, what's the point of keeping these eyes?"
He plunged two fingers straight into his eyes, drawing blood, and his smile widened to its widest point.
He spoke in the gentlest voice he had ever used: "Lin'er likes my smile, so let all of you happily be buried with her."
Yun Lian secretly freed herself from the ropes binding her, and at the moment Qing Xin went on a killing spree, she transformed into her true form.
Almost instantly, the enormous red fox appeared, circling in the sky.
Just as the life force in Qingxin's hand was about to dissipate, Yunlian forcefully grabbed Qingxin's shoulder with her claw.
For a moment, only two afterimages could be seen battling it out.
The abbot led people to destroy the formation, but Yichan's eyes were fixed on Fu Ya. Just now, she almost killed the little fox.
If it weren't for that sudden fire, he would never have seen the little fox again.
Fu Ya, that scourge, was brought by him personally.
Yichan grabbed Fu Ya by the neck, feeling as if he had been bewitched by her.
"Was it all your doing? If it weren't for you, the little fox wouldn't have suddenly appeared at the Taoist temple. What was your purpose in approaching me?"
Even though Fu Ya's face turned red from being choked, she still smiled.
"Purpose? Hahaha, of course, it's to live."
Fu Ya saw the murderous intent in his eyes, but laughed even more heartily.
"You stinking Taoist priest, if you're so capable, then kill me. As long as you can't kill me, everything will go back to normal."
As long as the system returns, no matter how much grudge she had with Yichan, he will forget it and only remember that she is a very important person to him.
That's enough.
"You think I really wouldn't dare kill you? At worst, I'll just quit being a Taoist priest!"
If one can protect the world but cannot even protect the people one loves, what is the point of fighting demons and upholding justice?
Fu Ya laughed even more happily when she heard his answer.
"Hahaha, if you don't become a Taoist priest, then can you still be her little Taoist priest? You stinky Taoist priest, I almost forgot to tell you some good news, your little demon seems to be dying..."
Yichan turned around abruptly and saw that the two afterimages were gradually becoming clearer, and most of the mountains next to the Taoist temple had been leveled by the two of them.
He gripped the knife in his hand and forcefully plunged it into Fu Ya's chest, ignoring her incredulous expression, and joined the fight.
The other people in the Taoist temple became weaker and weaker as time went on.
The sacrificial array continued unabated, draining their life force. But they had no time to pay attention to themselves. As the battle dragged on, the cracks that the abbot had just sealed were leaking demonic energy again.
The battle between Yun Lian and Qing Xin has reached a point of open daylight, with both sides striking each other's vital points.
"You should have died long ago. I should have brought you up the mountain the first time I saw you. If I had acted sooner, perhaps Lin could still be with me."
Yun Lian also laughed: "You should die too. You should have gone with Lin when she died."
When Yichan arrived, he only saw a hole in Yunlian's chest, and the seven-colored glass heart that Qingxin had always coveted was indeed as dazzling as glass.
But at this moment, it was crushed to pieces by Qingxin, and Qingxin's chest was pierced through by a red-tasseled spear, and the two of them fell from the air together.
Yichan caught Yunlian as she fell from the sky; the eye that could be opened was filled with blood mist.
"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry! If it weren't for me, you would still be a carefree little demon."
"Yun Lian, I'm so sorry!"
Yichan's white hair was stained with drops of blood from her body. At this moment, it was as if only the two of them remained in the entire world.
But Qingxin looked at the two figures as if she were thinking of some past events.
He was looking at himself and Lin'er through Yun Lian and the other person.
Lin'er also breathed her last in his arms.
She said, "Qingxin, after I leave, don't be sad for me. You must live well on your own. I will turn into the wind, into the rain, into the butterfly, into all things in the world to accompany you."
"Qingxin, I have no regrets. The happiest thing in my life is knowing, getting to know, and falling in love with you..."
It's such a pity that I can't be with you in this lifetime...
The faint mist in Qingxin's hand transformed into a dagger with a ferocious snake head.
He held the skeleton in his arms with a tender and affectionate expression, and even tidied his messy hair.
"Lin'er, I've come to find you. She's right. I should have come to follow you the day you left. It's not too late now, is it?"
But it doesn't matter. Even if you get there first, I can still find you at a glance and recognize you.
I should be punished for not coming to be with you sooner…
Qingxin forcefully shattered his own heart, then, with a smile on his face, went to find the light in his life.
At the end of the path of light, he heard her say, "Little Taoist priest, I've saved you, but you can't catch me, okay?"
"Little Taoist, stop bothering me. Humans and demons are different. I'm going to find your kind, and I'm going to find my friends too."
"Little Taoist priest, why do you look so disheveled after just a few days? Come with me from now on. If I have food, you'll have water too."
"Young Taoist priest, humans and demons are different, we..."
"Little Taoist priest, don't cry. I'll go first. I'll never regret being with you."
"Little Taoist priest, you've finally come to find me."

Yichan was already sobbing uncontrollably.
He carried Yun Lian step by step, taking off his tattered Taoist robe and covering her with it.
Wipe the blood off her face so she looks like she's asleep.
"Little fox, don't be afraid. I know you don't like coming to the Taoist temple. I'll take you down the mountain now."
Yichan himself was also injured. Holding Yunlian, he almost dropped her to the ground several times due to exhaustion.
He could only find a rope to tie her and himself together.
“Little fox, speak to me, don’t ignore me… I’ll take you to the best doctor, they can definitely save you.”
"No, I'll take you to find a great demon. Even if humans can't do anything, your demon race must have some unimaginable secrets, right? I will definitely wait for you to wake up."
"Little fox, I was really wrong. If I had been more determined, would I not have been so easily swayed by others?"
"Little fox, I'm so sleepy too. I want to sleep like you, but I'm afraid that when I wake up I won't be able to see you anymore."
"If only time could turn back, I would never hurt you again. The moment I saw you in the village, I would protect you under my wings and let you grow up in peace."
