Meanwhile, on the other side, Bai Yao became quite dazed after leaving the Demon-Suppressing Great Wall. At this moment, she possessed the personalities of both Jun Tan and Bai Yao. In fact, at this time, Jun Tan's personality still occupied a large part. However, she could no longer return to the Empress she once was. She didn't know why, but she just wanted to see the place where Bai Yao had once lived, so she came to Ling Su City.
By concealing her demonic power, no one could detect her demonic aura if she wished.
The bustling city of Lingsu remained undamaged, just as prosperous as ever. She walked slowly down the bustling street, a strange flutter in her heart, but she didn't want to wander around like a little girl.
Bai Yao's appearance and the otherworldly aura she exuded still attracted a lot of attention, but she didn't care at all, or rather, she didn't even notice how eye-catching she was. She just stood in front of a pastry stall, coldly looking at the pastries, struggling internally.
She seemed to remember eating it before, but she disdained to try it again. In her current mindset, why should she learn to eat like these humans when she was already immortal?
However, Bai Yao's will within her body seemed very strong, and she wanted to taste it, so she began to struggle internally.
But he lingered in front of the stall, staring at the pastries, and didn't leave.
She stared at the shop owner so intently that he felt embarrassed. "Young lady? Are you buying anything? Don't you have any money? If you're hungry, you can have this."
As he spoke, the shop owner wrapped up several osmanthus cakes and handed them to Bai Yao. She didn't reach out to take them, but shook her head and stayed there, unwilling to leave.
The shopkeeper assumed that such a pretty young girl must be embarrassed to take things from others for free, so he immediately said, "It's alright, young lady, everyone has inconveniences sometimes. Consider this a gift from me, please accept it."
Sure enough, as long as you're good-looking, you'll be popular wherever you go. At this moment, the stall owner's daughter also came up to her, saying, "Fairy sister, please accept this."
Bai Yao turned to look at the cute little girl, as if she remembered something, and felt a strange tenderness in her heart. Led by the little girl, she sat down at the table next to her. She turned to look at the little girl, puzzled, "Why do you call me Sister Divine Statue? Can you see through my cultivation level?"
The little girl was very puzzled. "Because you are beautiful, sister. When Ling'er grows up, she will definitely grow up to be like you!"
These words amused the shop owner. "My daughter is being silly, please don't take offense, young lady. And Ling'er, you're already very pretty. Don't try to look like everyone else, okay?"
Watching the shop owner and his daughter joking around, Bai Yao suddenly felt empty inside. She didn't know why, but lately she kept thinking about that man. She had tried her best not to miss him, after all, it wasn't her memory, it was just Bai Yao's memory.
After all, she had thought about killing that man with her own hands several times back then, but in the end she gave up the idea.
From Jun Tan's perspective, she wanted to stay as far away from that man as possible because she knew that would become her weakness. So she prayed that Yu Hui and he would perish together, so that she would have no more weaknesses and could once again become the empress standing at the top of the demon race.
But for some reason, even though the demons of Fengming Mountain were still waiting for her to return, and all the demons in the world knew that Empress Jun Tan had been revived, she still inexplicably resisted those days of the past.
Yu Hui was right. It seemed that from the moment he was born, he had been staying on Phoenix Mountain, not going anywhere. He didn't know why, but he just wanted to stick to those rigid rules and do nothing but deal with those who broke the rules.
But now she feels it's meaningless.
The world in Bai Yao's memory was very interesting, with delicious food and fun activities, and it seemed to have many things that could stir people's emotions. At first, Jun Tan thought this was Yu Hui's way of bringing him down from his pedestal.
But now that I think about it, Bai Yao is also myself. Although that period of time was like experiencing a different life after having my memories erased, she had never experienced such rules of life before. So she was angry, but she couldn't erase what had happened.
