(The previous chapter has been blocked, so I'll briefly mention the content of the previous chapter: Fei Yao wakes up and doesn't know how to face Murong Tianyi, so he decides to leave, but is caught by Murong Tianyi. Murong Tianyi takes it as a confession and says he likes Fei Yao. Continued...)
"Like? Haha~"
Murong Tianyi's sincere confession was met with the useless demon's sneer.
She lowered her head, and the aura of resistance emanating from her whole body deeply hurt Murong Tianyi.
The abandoned demon's voice was calm.
It is as calm as dead water without any ripples, unable to stir up any waves.
She slowly turned around and looked at Murong Tianyi. The color of her eyes was as lifeless as her voice, and even the smile on her lips seemed to reveal her despair for this world.
"Murong Tianyi, do you still like me like this?"
Murong Tianyi was silent.
His pupils beneath the gold-rimmed glasses flashed with strange sparks. He stared blankly at the useless demon, trying to figure out which of his words were true and which were false.
If what Fei Yao said is true.
But why would the useless demon lie?
And it's such a despicable lie, no normal person would believe it!
The useless demon seemed to have read Murong Tianyi's thoughts and said with a smile, "Everything I said is true. There is no need to lie to you."
Her smile was so fearless, with a sense of giving up everything.
"Since I've already told you this, I'll tell you another secret. This secret will be even more difficult for you to accept."
“…”
"Don't say anything yet. Just listen to me quietly until I finish. I hope you can then say that you like me instead of hating me."
The useless demon laughed at himself and lowered his head to avoid Murong Tianyi's gaze.
She didn't want to see disgust towards her in Murong Tianyi's eyes, as that would make her lose the courage to live.
The useless demon dodged so quickly that she didn't even see the pain in Murong Tianyi's eyes.
She pushed Murong Tianyi away and walked to the window wrapped in a bed sheet.
“What I am about to say is indeed very unbelievable, but it is all true.
I am not from this era.
Or rather, my body lives in this era, but my soul comes from decades in the future."
Having said that, Fei Yao paused.
She was giving Murong Tianyi time to digest it.
After a while, she continued, "Not only me, but also Gong Yu - Blood Eyes, Mo Liunian - Mask, Yi Zehao - Tian Jue, and Lian Cheng Shaofeng - Lone Wolf, we all come from the Soul Demon Mercenary Group decades later."
"The only difference is that Blood Eye, I, and Mask have recovered our memories of our past lives, but Tian Jue and Lone Wolf haven't."
What Fei Yao said was so unbelievable that Murong Tianyi couldn't help asking, "If what you said is true, then why are you here?"
The useless demon turned and looked at Murong Tianyi.
"This is a long story, I have to start from the beginning."
