The two talked as they traveled.
Because time was really limited, Chunmu had to keep it brief, "Your current physical body probably doesn't have much time left."
"..." Song Xi's eyelids twitched violently. "Am I about to die?"
"That's the meaning. When the lotus heart grows in your chest, one more lotus petal will grow every day thereafter. When the petal is fully bloomed, that is when your physical body is destroyed and your primordial spirit returns to chaos."
Chunmu's eyes showed a hint of sympathy. "The lotus on your body should have a total of eighteen petals, which means you have eighteen days left."
Eighteen days...
Song Xiwei never imagined that she would have a short life.
"With each additional lotus petal, you will endure more pain. When all eighteen petals have fully bloomed, you will suffer the agony of your primordial spirit shattering and your physical body being burned." Chunmu's eyes revealed unbearable pain. "In this life, if you still have unfulfilled wishes, hurry up and go while your body is still mobile. I came to the Demon Realm this time because I sensed your presence and wanted to confirm if this was true. I did manage to arrive in time, but it's too late. If I had arrived before the lotus heart grew, perhaps I could have found a way to buy you some more time."
"You just said I'm a reincarnation?" Song Xiwei stared at Chunmu and pressed, "Whose reincarnation am I? In eighteen days, will I completely disappear, or will I continue to reincarnate?"
Chunmu shook her head. "This matter is too complicated to explain in a few words. Moreover, telling you now will only cause you more pain. You... don't ask so many questions. In the last eighteen days, don't let this life have too many regrets."
Song Xi watched Chun Mu leave.
She suddenly lost the strength to leave Chidu.
Only eighteen days left, I'm about to die...
Chunmu had no grudge against him and had no reason to lie to him like this, especially since the lotus heart had already grown...
Also, whose reincarnation is she?
Song Xiwei had no idea that she carried a huge secret.
She never considered herself a person with special advantages.
On the contrary, he was constantly tempered by bloodshed and various trials, otherwise he wouldn't have been born into a country whose homeland was destroyed and he would have become an orphan.
When Aoqian found Song Xiwei with bloodshot eyes, Song Xiwei was soaking wet, whether from sweat or something else, it was hard to tell.
She looked utterly disheveled, her eyes red and filled with an unprecedented sense of bewilderment.
Upon seeing Aoqian, she actually rushed over and hugged him.
Perhaps because her days were numbered, she didn't want to dwell on the wounds that Aoqian had inflicted on her.
Because Song Xiwei never rejected Aoqian's love; in fact, she was somewhat enamored with it.
She was just being stubborn and never admitted it, but how could her heart lie?
She probably fell in love with Aoqian a long time ago without realizing it, but she was just slow to realize it.
But how could she possibly say now that she liked Aoqian?
With only eighteen days left, she had no future with Aoqian.
"Wh-what's wrong?" Song Xiwei's eyes were so sad that Aoqian was startled.
All his anger was suppressed by Song Xiwei's disheveled and sorrowful state.
"Don't stay silent, please tell me, okay? I don't blame you for running away, but if anything happens to you, you must tell me. I'm here for you..."
Aoqian then realized that Song Xiwei was completely cold. When he looked up, Song Xiwei was crying. Her tears were also cold, and they just fell onto the back of Aoqian's hand.
"How could this happen? Are you feeling unwell?" Aoqian was terrified.
Song Xiwei remained silent, only shedding silent tears.
Tears welled up in her eyes, blurring her vision so she couldn't see Aoqian's expression clearly.
But Aoqian was terribly nervous, his voice trembling, "Don't scare me, I was wrong, I shouldn't have pressured you, tell me where you're hurting, don't stay silent, please, Song Xiwei..."
