After arriving in the ghost world, Yan Baibai put all his thoughts on accompanying Zi Da and Zi Er. Seeing that the two little guys had found their own focus in life, Yan Baibai's heart gradually settled down.
Two nights later, Yan Baibai and Xiao Changhen stood above the Ghost Crying River. The cold and gloomy energy crept up on them. Even though they had set up a barrier, they could still feel the coldness.
"This is the center of the Ghost Crying River, and also its source." Xiao Changhen held Yan Baibai's hand, looking down at the river flowing beneath his feet, and said, "If you want to obtain the heart of the realm, you must enter from here. Only I, the master of the ghost realm, can endure the cold here for a long time."
"So, everyone in the ghost world thought there were no fish in the Ghost Crying River, but you were able to catch some?" Yan Baibai thought of the small silver fish that had often appeared on the table these past few days and continued, "It was the same five hundred years ago."
Xiao Changhen paused, then slowly turned to look at Yan Baibai and asked in surprise, "How did you know?"
"Did the system tell you?" Xiao Changhen thought about it and felt that this was the only possibility. After all, it seemed that he was the only ghost cultivator in the world who knew that there were silverfish under the Ghost Crying River.
Yan Baibai raised his eyebrows, smiled and nodded.
"Then..." Xiao Changhen pursed his lips and finally asked, "Do you like it?"
"Of course, I like it very much." Yan Baibai savored the taste of the silverfish and answered honestly.
"Well... after everything is settled, I'll catch more silverfish for you to eat, okay?" Xiao Changhen looked up at the moon in the sky. The bright moon that used to be like a jade plate now seemed to be shrouded in a layer of red mist.
"Pfft, isn't it a bit unlucky for the little silverfish in the Ghost Crying River to have a master like you?" Yan Baibai couldn't help but smile and looked up at the sky: "The red moon has appeared."
"It's because of me that the little silver fish in the Ghost Crying River have survived extinction. If they had intelligence, they would only be grateful to me."
As the river of life in the ghost world, the Ghost Crying River naturally has a close connection with the Lord of the ghost world. If I were to explain the various reasons in detail, it would probably take a long time to finish.
Xiao Changhen also looked at the red moon in the sky: "When the red moon appears, the coldness of the Ghost Crying River is at its weakest, and that's when..."
The two withdrew their gaze from the red moon and stared at each other for a moment. Xiao Changhen continued, "The barrier leading to the Demon Realm from the Ghost Crying River is at its weakest."
The Ghost Crying River will "go directly" to the Demon Realm when the red moon appears. Xiao Changhen only learned this information when he merged with Wu Pin's soul.
Xiao Changhen still remembered that the day his soul dispersed was when the red moon was in the sky. Perhaps it was because of this reason that a piece of his soul was able to pass through the numerous barriers and reach the demon world, and finally turned into Wu Pin.
"Baibai, it's time!" Xiao Changhen held Yan Baibai in his arms and enveloped her with his aura: "After sinking into the center of the ghost world, I will go to get the world center, and you, you go to the demon world."
Yan Baibai let Xiao Changhen hold her and nodded in his arms.
"Baibai, the Demon Realm is dangerous. This is your first time there. Remember what I told you yesterday. There are many dangerous creatures in the Demon Realm. You must take care of yourself."
Yan Baibai nodded and said sullenly, "I know it's not easy to take the boundary heart. Xiao Changhen, you should be more careful."
Xiao Changhen smiled and responded, then suddenly fell silent for a moment. After hesitating for a moment, he closed his eyes and slowly said, "May I make an unreasonable request?"
"Hmm?" Yan Baibai looked up in confusion: "What?"
"Can you call me by other names?" Xiao Changhen's body stiffened. His heartbeat suddenly quickened because of what was about to happen. "They also miss you very much. They want to hear you call those names again."
During the days when he couldn't see Yan Baibai, every time he missed her, he needed memories to make up for it. However, those memories of him and her came from different identities. Does this count as doubling the longing?
No one calls their names anymore, and it seems as if they have really disappeared from this world, but in fact, they have always been there and know clearly who they are.
It’s like a person has memories of several lives, except that his “several lives” exist at the same time and, coincidentally, have the same heroine.
Let’s just think of “Xiao Changhen” as his present life. Now his heroine also has all the memories of the previous lives, and the “him” in previous lives really wants to hear his lover call his name again.
When they met again, he used the "Oath of Truth" to force her to admit that she loved Xiao Changhen, so he would be Xiao Changhen from then on. But now, he understood that no matter which clone it was, it was still him.
So, he greedily wanted her to like all of him and remember all of him.
Such emotions are actually... not complicated, right?
Xiao Changhen didn’t know, but so what if it was complicated? Human emotions are inherently complex and difficult to understand, so he admitted it.
Xiao Changhen thought a lot after he finished speaking. His body was stiff and he hugged her tightly, feeling both nervous and expectant.
Yan Baibai was stunned when she heard this, but didn't think too much about it. She raised her head and held Xiao Changhen's face with both hands. Their eyes met, and there was only each other in each other's eyes. At this time, they could clearly see each other's emotions and reactions.
"Xiao Changhen, Yan Baibai likes you." After Yan Baibai said this, she stood on tiptoe and pecked him lightly on the lips.
"Xie Ciwei, Yan Baibai likes you." After Yan Baibai said this, she stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the forehead.
"Wu Pin, Yan Baibai likes you." After Yan Baibai said this, she stood on tiptoe and gently kissed his left eye. When they met again at the Five Finger Mountain, his pupils were different colors, and his left eye was red. That was the performance of Wu Pin when he was about to merge.
