The forced smile on the man's face fell.
Ana Shen: “You should fulfill your promise.”
The man snorted coldly, waving his long sleeves, and spots of black light overflowed from the cuffs.
It forms a black translucent door.
"Walk through this door and you will return to the world of the living."
Xiao: "Goodbye, oh no, goodbye forever."
The man scoffed, "I'm afraid not. Even though you like that boy very much, I still want to snatch you away."
Xiao Xu: "...There's a saying that goes, 'A forced melon isn't sweet.'"
Man: "It doesn't matter whether it's sweet or not, I just feel good after twisting it off."
Xiao Yan: "..."
She rolled her eyes secretly and was dragged towards the door by someone.
After stepping in, she still felt uneasy and thought, what if this was a trap, wouldn’t she and Shen Yanjin be doomed?
But people went in.
…
When he opened his eyes again, Xiao Xu and Shen Yanjin were standing on a Gaosong city wall.
The patrolling guards were so frightened when they saw two living people suddenly appearing out of nowhere that their military caps tilted to one side and they looked at the two living people with trembling hands.
Patrolman A was curious: "Why does he look so familiar?"
Patrolman B: "Fool, that's the Imperial Master!"
A dozen or so patrolmen guarding the city immediately dropped their weapons, plopped down on their knees, and shouted, "Greetings, Our Lord Imperial Master!"
Xiao Yu waved his hand: "Get up, we'll just come and take a look, don't worry about it."
The patrol guards responded: "Yes!" They picked up their weapons and returned to their posts.
The sky was just beginning to turn light, the morning light was dim, the dawn light lifted the veil of night, spitting out the brilliant morning, the clouds gathered at the horizon like a market, as if soaked in blood, showing a faint red color.
Xiao Xu stood straight with his back to the light.
And Ana Shen beside her glanced at her and slowly walked towards the stairs of the city wall.
Looking at the lonely figure leaving, Xiao Xu almost wanted to follow, but finally suppressed the impulse in his heart.
Her hands hanging at her sides were slightly bent, and then slowly relaxed.
The new patrolman replaced the old one and took up his post.
"Master Imperial Master, is there anything I can help you with?"
After guarding for a whole night, the patrolman who was about to go home saw the imperial teacher standing somewhere in a daze, so he tried to mention it.
Xiao Xu, who was being questioned, came back to his senses and turned his gaze to the forest outside the city wall.
"It's okay. You've been on guard all night. Go back and rest."
Her voice was neither cold nor hot, but to the patrolmen's ears, it sounded like a friendly endorsement.
"Yes, Master Imperial Master!"
The patrolman shouted excitedly, attracting the attention of many other laid-off and Shanglan patrolmen, who all looked at him with envy.
Looking at the slowly rising sun, Xiao Xu sorted out all the things that happened in the underworld capital. Finally, he said with an unclear expression: "Am I..." and fell into it.
From the time he traveled through time to the present day, Xiao Xu's concept of this world has remained in: a novel.
I have never truly understood anything or anyone in this world...
When Fu Qiyin said that she could live for thirty years, she thought it was normal and it didn't matter, because she was not from this world anyway.
Nothing in particular that I care about.
Death is the end of everything.
But now she...
This completely negates all previous views.
Maybe before the parade, or even earlier.
She has things in this world that she is nostalgic for, and people that she cannot bear to leave.
To her, this fictional world really exists.
The characters here are flesh and blood.
Can cry, laugh, fight and make noises...
Even if some illogical nonsense pops up at any time, it is real.
