In the blink of an eye, a night had passed.
The daylight outside was bright, illuminating the Demon Lord's Palace.
Having not slept all night, Lang Yuan and Li Molin stood guard at the palace gate and beside Lingxi, who was casting the spell, respectively, both staring intently at the dazzling white light, their expressions tense.
Lang Yuan was worried about Ling Xi's safety, while Li Molin was concerned about whether Liu Li would be able to wake up.
Suddenly, Li Molin's body, which was sitting cross-legged, trembled slightly, because he sensed a faint and ethereal life force of reincarnation in the white light before him, and vaguely saw several faint souls flashing in the white light before disappearing without a trace.
Then the white light began to slowly dim, revealing Liuli's body lying quietly on the ground and the spirit within her.
Lingxi looked exhausted, but there was joy in her eyes.
"Lingxi, how is she?" Li Molin's right hand, resting on his knee, clenched unconsciously, his knuckles turning slightly white. He asked anxiously, "How is Liuli?"
Lingxi didn't answer, but nimbly jumped off Liuli and looked at her nervously.
Seeing this, Li Molin also turned his gaze to Liuli.
After a long silence filled the tense atmosphere, finally, the rosy hue returned to Liuli's cheeks, and her chest began to rise and fall slightly. Then her eyelashes trembled, and she slowly opened her eyes.
Liuli seemed to have just taken a nap, her eyes filled with confusion. She stared blankly at the high dome, and as she slowly blinked, she remembered everything.
"Hmm...where is this?" She moved her head, looking around, and said, "Is this the legendary underworld?"
"Huh, Li Molin?" Liuli was taken aback when she saw Li Molin.
Overjoyed, Li Molin quickly rose and knelt beside Liuli. The warmth of her hand in his grasp eased some of the unreal feeling in his heart. He looked down at Liuli, his eyes shimmering with emotion, tears welling up and silently sliding down his cheeks. He said excitedly, "Liuli, it's so wonderful that you've woken up, Liuli..."
Liuli felt extremely weak. She struggled to sit up and asked in confusion, "Wasn't I dead? Didn't the Yellow Emperor kill me in the end? What exactly happened?"
“Sister.” Lingxi smiled weakly and said, “I saved you. When you died back then, my cultivation was not strong enough to use the Resurrection Technique to save you. I felt extremely guilty. Fortunately, I was able to save you this time, sister.”
Liuli gazed intently at Lingxi, keenly sensing the change in her aura. Moved, she said, "I've read the ancient texts and know that using the Spirit Return Technique will cost you your life. Lingxi, thank you."
Lingxi shook her head and said with a smile, "Sister, you don't need to be so polite. Anyway, I have nine lives."
She paused for a moment, then said seriously, "Back then, when I went to look for Liang Yihan but couldn't find him, it was you, sister, who helped me without asking for anything in return. Later, when Liang Yihan didn't acknowledge me, it was still you who treated me well and like a younger sister. I have always been very grateful to you, sister, but I have no way to repay you. I am very happy to be able to help you now."
Liuli thought of everything that had happened since her rebirth, and looked at Lingxi apologetically, saying, "Lingxi, I haven't treated you well all these years, and I'm sorry."
Lingxi shook her head and said, "That's not my fault, sister. It's the magic of the soul-summoning spell that's causing the trouble."
Liuli smiled gently and said, "Anyway, thank you anyway, Lingxi!"
Li Molin watched Liuli's appearance with surprise. He had a feeling that this Liuli, who had been reborn, was the same cunning fox he had brought from Fox Plains.
In fact, the Liuli who was revived by the Spirit Cat Clan using the Spirit Returning Technique is completely different from the one who was revived by the Soul Summoning Incantation. The Soul Summoning Incantation changed her constitution and mindset, making her cruel, bloodthirsty, and selfish. But the Liuli who was revived by Lingxi is the same Liuli she used to be—the mischievous, cute, kind, and beautiful girl.
After the devastating blow of Liuli's death, Li Molin was overjoyed to receive two more pleasant surprises. He pulled Liuli's arm and hugged her tightly, saying excitedly, "Liuli, this is wonderful, truly wonderful, Liuli..."
Li Molin's sudden movement startled Liuli, and he was holding her so tightly that she could barely breathe.
Liuli's face darkened, and she shouted angrily, "Li Molin, you bastard! I've only just come back to life, are you trying to strangle me? How many times do you want me to die before you're satisfied?"
Listening to Liuli's words and her tone, Li Molin became even happier, his smile deepening with genuine joy.
