Xiao Yuhan's dazed eyes suddenly cleared for a moment, but quickly became numb again. "I won't leave..."
The illusion collapsed again the next second. He didn't return to reality. Xiao Yuhan realized that this illusion was not as simple as he had imagined. He murmured to himself, "So even obeying the illusion doesn't work? Since that man set up the illusion to deal with me... why would he leave me an exit? But everything in the world has its reasons. What's wrong? What do I need to do to completely dismantle this damned environment?"
Xiao Yuhan couldn't understand why, in this life, he had become the son of a general. His mother died early, and he grew up in the army with his father. After reaching adulthood, he succeeded his father and made many military achievements. He returned to the capital and was rewarded and betrothed to the current princess, who was none other than Bai Yao. He recalled his past once again, and at this moment, he began to see those familiar faces appearing before his eyes again and again.
Those long-forgotten years were awakened once again in his heart, but this time, Xiao Yuhan gradually became less resistant and lived a peaceful and happy life with Bai Yao. If the last time he deliberately complied with the illusion to test it out, then this life was filled with his weariness and exhaustion.
He even had a terrible thought: maybe living like this isn't so bad. No matter what kind of life he leads, he can still live a peaceful life. Isn't that what he wants?
But as soon as this thought arose, Xiao Yuhan's anger intensified. He became inexplicably angry and eccentric.
The illusion was reconstructed once again. This time, he was born into royalty and became an arrogant prince who committed all sorts of evil deeds, killing countless people and forcibly taking women from the common people. Bai Yao became one of the women he abducted. In this life, he ultimately died from the betrayal of his subordinate, who had the exact same face as his senior brother Liu Jiantang.
This time, he seemed to understand something. No matter what choices he made in the illusion, he could not escape it. His initial thinking was correct; he should follow the spellcaster's intention and immerse himself in it.
So he planted a seed in his mind that only by becoming immersed in it would the illusion end.
In this life, he became a beggar, born into poverty and hardship, but through his perseverance and hard work, he changed his destiny step by step. He was immersed in joy, lost in emotion, and his eyes gradually became crazy as he became madly absorbed in it.
Through countless reincarnations and experiences of different lives, his eyes had long since grown numb.
But he seems unwilling to return to reality.
...
Inside a small cave outside Beimanlong City, Xiao Yuhan had a full head of white hair and empty eyes, looking like a dead man. However, he kept grinning foolishly, his mouth agape and drooling uncontrollably. Lin Yuan, standing beside him, looked at Murong Zhi not far away and said, "I've finished everything. Qiu Xinghen is dead, and the vengeful spirits of Beiyuan are out of control."
Murong Zhi paid no attention to any of that. He simply walked slowly to Xiao Yuhan and said, "Heh... he's... become an idiot?"
Lin Yuan explained, "A person lost in the River of No Return has lost their mind. They are now just a walking corpse, unable to hear anyone speak or see anything. To put it more accurately, they are a living corpse."
Murong Zhi narrowed his eyes, and then smiled slightly, as if thinking of something. He walked up to Xiao Yuhan, pointed a finger at his forehead, and said, "System, I know you can hear me. You're probably already thinking about how to choose the next person to arrive, right? I've placed a restriction on you. From this moment on, you are symbiotic with Xiao Yuhan, and you can't do anything but quietly wait inside his body for my main body to awaken. When that happens, I'll personally send you on your way!"
Xiao Yuhan did not react at all, or rather, his right to control the body on Xiao Yuhan's behalf has now been restricted.
Although Lin Yuan was somewhat curious about what the system Murong Zhi mentioned was, he pretended not to hear anything and then reported the previous battle situation, including the fact that Nanmen Yihen had gone mad.
Murong Zhi suddenly burst into laughter: "It really is a case of 'a happy accident,' Lin Yuan, you've done a great service! Alright, what you need to do now is find Bai Yu and take him away. I need to start my next plan."
