Lin Xi listened carefully. Suddenly, the pain in her body that had been fading away intensified again, as if some force was robbing the system of its power to repair her body.

"That's enough. Can't I save one person?" The system got angry and directly pulled the energy back.

Who is the system talking to? Lin Xi was wondering, and the energy that was taken away seemed to be returned.

"It's okay. He won't drain the energy needed to repair your body anymore." The system said to Lin Xian.

Who is he? Lin Xi had a vague answer in her mind, but she didn't dare to say it out loud.

"It's the world consciousness. That guy is taking the opportunity to absorb my energy." said the system.

Lin Yan: “!!”

Did she just compete for energy with the world consciousness?

No, is it that the system is competing for energy with the world consciousness for its own sake?

The system is so kind. I forgive you for your previous mistakes.

The system was speechless. The reason why he opened the door was because he was too weak at that time. In order to save energy as much as possible, he even eliminated his emotions. However, the system was too lazy to explain this to Lin Nan.

Lin: "You just said that the world consciousness is absorbing your power, what will you do then?"

Seeing that Lin Xi was still worried about herself, the system felt better: "It's okay. I expected this scene when I decided to go to Earth. We reached an agreement at the beginning. The world consciousness guards Tianyu and protects the lives in Tianyu to the greatest extent possible. I go to Earth to seek an opportunity to save the world. I am the human consciousness of Tianyu. If I leave Tianyu, my power will be infinitely suppressed. On Earth, I am suppressed by the rules of the Earth. Every day I exist on Earth consumes a huge amount of energy. After all these years, even if all the humans in Tianyu wake up, my power is no longer as strong as the world consciousness. However, this guy is obviously not satisfied yet. He wants to suppress me completely."

The purpose of the world consciousness is to weaken human consciousness so that it can have absolute rule rights. Therefore, as long as human consciousness is weak, it doesn't care where the energy goes. This is also why He stopped extracting energy after the system shouted.

The back-and-forth struggle between the system and the world consciousness, with both sides maintaining an unspoken understanding, almost caused Chen Chu, who was holding Lin Nan, to collapse several times.

When the world consciousness extracted energy, Lin's body began to dissipate, turning into energy spots scattered in the void. When the system took the energy back, the dissipated energy spots were condensed again and turned into a physical body again. If this happened several times, one's mentality would collapse.

With the return of the energy of catastrophic items and the return of the power of the world, the fragments of the world scattered in the cracks of space condensed one by one, like a huge puzzle, being reassembled piece by piece, and finally gathered into a complete puzzle.

At this time, a huge piece of space debris was rapidly coming towards Tianji Realm. As the space debris approached, everyone could see clearly that it was a huge city. The size of the city was at least a hundred times that of Tianji Realm. With such a large piece of space debris hitting them at a high speed, would the Tianji Mirror be unable to withstand the impact of the space and collapse?

Just when everyone was in doubt and had nowhere to hide, the huge city had already connected with the Tianji Realm. After the earth trembled, countless birds started to fly up from the top of the mountain. Apart from that, there was nothing unusual around.

The space collided, but there was no damage at all? Elder Hua was shocked and felt that the Venerable Tianyu who arranged this formation was truly a genius of heaven and earth.

The startled birds flew straight towards the city below, and were about to fly to the connection point of the two space fragments. There was a strong space barrier there that could not be easily penetrated, but the birds flew over without any hindrance and flew into the huge city, as if they had pressed a play button, making the dead city suddenly come alive. The flags on the top of the city fluttered in the wind, and there were endless carriages and horses entering and leaving the city gates. The voices of people were noisy, and even on the top of the mountain, they could be faintly heard.

"These people are actually still alive?" Everyone was shocked. This is a city that has been "dead" for a thousand years.

This is a miracle, no, it is not just a miracle, it is a miracle. Only God can do this.

"Xingluo City." Tears suddenly flowed from the eyes of the high priest. "Xingluo City is one of the twenty-eight main cities in Tianyu."

Everyone turned around to look at the high priest, and suddenly found that the spirit whose face had been unclear had regained a body at some point, and was extremely handsome. He had long hair that almost fell to his thighs, as black as a waterfall, and his eyes were silver-gray on his white, almost transparent face, revealing mystery and coldness, and only slightly red because of his tears.

The high priest could no longer bear it, he strode towards the direction of Starfall City, that was his world.

The earth was still shaking, and behind every shaking, a piece of space fragment was being pieced together.

As more and more space fragments were successfully pieced together, more and more humans in Tianyu revived, the energy of the system became stronger and stronger, and Lin Xi's recovery speed became faster and faster.

Lin felt it, and knew that when her body was repaired, the system would be separated from her body. Although she had tried countless times to separate the system, when the time came, Lin suddenly felt a little reluctant, but said stubbornly: "Finally, I can get rid of you."

The system smiled and said, "Congratulations."

Lin: "You should be humble from now on, after all, he is better than you."

System: "What are you thinking? Even if the world consciousness is stronger than me, it can't do anything to me. We are all born from the world, and we have the function of restraining each other. The strong can make rules, but if the rules made by the world consciousness are not conducive to the development of the creatures in the universe, I will become stronger again. As long as the creatures are not destroyed, I will not be destroyed."

Lin Yan understood that the system protected the lives of the universe, and the world consciousness protected this world. However, the world cannot exist without lives, because a world without lives will also die. To some extent, their goals are the same.

Finally, the glow on Lin Xin's body gradually faded, and the treatment was nearing its end.

Lin Xi suddenly remembered something: "Oh, by the way, you said before that hiding the ring would cost you something, what is that cost?"

Lin did not receive any system prompt, so she doesn’t know what the price is?

System: "It's nothing, actually. The engagement ring has a five-minute limit after use."

When Lin Xi heard the first half of the sentence, she just breathed a sigh of relief, but the second half almost gave her a heart attack.

System: "These five minutes are actually the right for the user to regret. If you don't want the ring to be taken off, it means you have rejected this right. You are already married."

Lin Yan: “!!!”

Married? She got married?

Lin Yan: "Can't we cancel it?"

System reminder: "You have denied yourself the right to regret."

"Then...what about Chen Chu? Can't he refuse?" Yes, marriage is a matter between two people, and the other party should also have the right to refuse.

System: "Originally, there was, but he can't refuse it now."

Lin Xi: "Why? I am the one who has to pay the price, not Chen Chu."

System: "The rules of the 'Proposal Ring' are that within five minutes, the proposer decides whether to get married. After five minutes, the proposee who is stronger than the proposer is eligible to refuse. Chen Chu's strength was originally stronger than yours, so he should have the right to refuse. But you asked me to erase those five minutes for you, and Chen Chu's strength is far inferior to mine."

Lin struggled desperately: "...This is unfair. Marriage should be voluntary."

System: "This is a prop. What kind of marriage do you think requires props to achieve?"

Lin Yan: “…”

System: "The creation of this item was originally due to an unrequited love."

It turns out that the "engagement ring" was made for the purpose of forcing others to get married, and she thought it was a particularly romantic love story.

Lin: "So they are in love after they get married?"

System: "No, the bride committed suicide the next day, and the owner of the ring also died because of the ring's rule of sharing life and death."

Lin Xi: “…” She originally thought it was a story of tragic love, but she didn’t expect it to be a horror story in the end.

System: "Don't worry, Chen Chu won't commit suicide. You saved him, so it's only natural that he would pledge his love to you."

Lin: "Is this a question of suicide? The problem is that Senior Chen Chu and I have always been colleagues, and now we are suddenly getting married, and I was the one who proposed. How embarrassing..."

"Lin Yan, Lin Yan..."

Suddenly, Lin Yan heard Chen Chu's voice, which frightened Chen Chu: "He called me, he called me."

System: "Your body has recovered, it's time to wake up. Goodbye, Lin."

As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Xi felt something being peeled off from her body. She subconsciously wanted to reach out to stop it, but she didn't know where that thing was.

"Lin Yan, you're awake." Chen Chu held Lin Yan's outstretched hand and shouted excitedly.

If she could pretend to be dead, Lin Xi hoped that she could do so until the end of time, but this was impossible.

Don't be afraid, isn't it just a proposal? It's almost like a confession of love, and it's a confession that the other person can't refuse. Why are you afraid? You won't suffer any loss anyway.

Lin Xi repeatedly prepared herself mentally and bravely opened her eyes.

At this moment, she was lying on her back in Chen Chu's arms. When she opened her eyes, she saw Chen Chu's face, which was so chaste that he was willing to give up 20% for it. Under his long and thick eyelashes, his eyes as clear as glass were full of her reflection.

When Chen Chu saw Lin Nan woke up, a smile was about to appear in his eyes, but he suddenly froze.

Is this... a reaction? And, very reluctantly?

The psychological preparation that Lin Xi had just completed collapsed in an instant.

At this time, Chen Chu did know about the marriage, but he did not just react, but just found out. A voice was narrating in his ear.

"Someone used a 'proposal ring' to force you to marry him. You cannot refuse, and the marriage will take effect until death."

At this moment, Chen Chu suddenly felt his fingers getting cold, and something was quietly appearing on his ring finger. It was a very familiar plain ring.

"The engagement ring has been upgraded to a wedding ring."

Wedding rings? Chen Chu subconsciously looked at Lin Nan's palm, and then found that Lin Nan was also looking at him. After their eyes briefly met in the air, they looked at each other's ring fingers at the same time.

"As compensation, the party who cannot refuse will have a higher status in the marriage, and you will be the head of the family. You can choose whether to accept this compensation within five seconds. If not, you can refuse the compensation by kissing. 5, 4, 3..."

Lin felt that their current position was inappropriate, especially after the established marriage, so she moved and tried to sit up. At this moment, Chen Chu's eyes suddenly looked over.

Lin Xi was about to explain, but before she could open her mouth, she was sealed with a kiss.

"A healthy marriage must be based on equality and mutual respect. Congratulations, and I wish you a long-lasting marriage and a son soon."

This sound rang in the ears of both of them at the same time.

And Lin Xi will never forget the owner of this voice.

"Who wants to have a baby?" What is this system guy blessing for? Lin Yan shouted subconsciously, and then she realized that she was still in Chen Chu's arms, and they seemed to be kissing just now.

"I...I mean..." If there was a gap at this moment, she would immediately crawl in and never come out.

Chen Chu stared at Lin Xi for a moment, as if he had finally confirmed something. He suddenly pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly: "I'll do whatever you say."

You want me to tell you everything? Have a baby?

Lin Xi's train of thought was gone forever, and when she came back, the Tianyu world had already recovered.

So, Senior Chen Chu also likes her, right?

"right!"

Suddenly a gust of wind blew over the mountain, bringing flower petals all over the mountain. However, when they arrived, there were no flowers blooming all over the mountain in Tianji Realm.
