"Is your enemy that powerful?" Dongfang Mian asked, blinking.
"Well, his true form is restricted from coming down in person, but even a wisp of his soul is enough to kill us all with a mere breath," Yan Lin said with a rare hint of mockery.
Dongfang Mian and Aju instantly turned into bitter faces. They thought that Yan Lin's recovery to the Spirit Venerable level would be the starting point of a bright future, but they didn't expect it to be the edge of a dangerous abyss.
"It's not too late to regret it now. You two go back on your own. No one will know that you are related to the death of Patriarch Baili. As long as you leave me, you will be safe," Yan Lin said.
Dongfang Mian lowered her head, her face showing a conflicted expression. After a long while, she seemed to have made a decision and said, "Alright, we're leaving. Take good care of yourself."
After saying that, he picked up Ah Ju and turned to leave.
Yan Lin watched as Dongfang Mian and Aju's figures gradually disappeared from his sight. His hands clenched unconsciously, his eyes lowered, and his brows were filled with indescribable disappointment.
But in an instant, Yan Lin's vision blurred, and a large face appeared before him.
"Wow~ Hahaha, we're back again! Surprised? Unexpected?" Dongfang Mian and Aju said with mischievous smiles.
"Oh," Yan Lin simply replied coldly.
"Tsk tsk tsk, still pretending? I bet if we don't come back soon, some big shot will be crying his eyes out in this little cave," Dongfang Mian laughed.
"Nonsense, how could I, the Venerable One, do such a shameful thing?" Yan Lin retorted stubbornly.
"Are you really sure? I'm not lying to you, your future enemies will be truly terrifying."
"What's there to be afraid of? I've already died once, so the future must be full of thrills and excitement to feel like I've been reborn," Dongfang Mian said heartily.
"Meow~ This divine beast will definitely show the visitors my power and display the divine might of my Crimson-Striped Divine Tiger clan," Aju said with great ambition.
"Do you have any other family members from the Crimson-Striped Divine Tiger clan?" Dongfang Mian asked curiously.
"I think so, but I can't remember. It doesn't matter," Aju said casually, waving her paws.
"Not important? Why wouldn't it be important? Hey, let me tell you, you're my pet now, so stop bringing up the Crimson-Striped Divine Tiger clan."
"No, no, I have to change your name to Dongfang Ju. From now on, you have to say that you are a great hero of the Dongfang Divine Tiger clan," Dongfang Mian said after thinking about it seriously.
"Oriental Orange? Ugh, I feel like throwing up," A-Ju said with an exaggerated expression.
"You! Take this! Vine Entanglement!"
The human and the cat instantly started fighting. Yan Lin leaned against the stone wall, watching the scene with a smile, feeling a sense of peace he had never experienced before.
After playfully bickering for a while, Dongfang Mian stood in front of Yan Lin, extended her hand and said, "Let's dominate the entire Vermilion Bird Continent together in the future. It's a pleasure to cooperate with you."
Yan Lin reached out and gently grasped Dongfang Mian's delicate little hand, saying, "No, you're wrong. In the future, we will dominate the Three Realms."
"Meow~ Count me in, I will also dominate the Three Realms!" Upon hearing this, Aju ran over and placed a little cat paw on their tightly clasped hands.
No one knows whether these two people and one cat will be able to dominate the three realms as they envision.
But at this moment, in this simple cave in the desolate mountains, the two people and the cat who had just gone through life and death together finally let go of the shackles in their hearts and opened their hearts to each other. The two people and the cat, who were also lonely and helpless, became the closest family members in the future.
