The heavy rain washed over her face, and endless water droplets slid down her face and into her clothes. No one knew whether it was rainwater or Jiang Yihuan's tears.
The rainwater mixed with blood flowed away, flowing into the distance, never to return.
Soon, the sound of sirens rang out, taking everything away.
Jiang Yihuan sat in the police car, dejectedly shutting her mouth without uttering a word.
Ye Qi sat next to her without saying a word.
After Ye Qi finished giving her statement with Jiang Yihuan, handled the follow-up matters, identified the body, and sent it to the crematorium.
Finally, you receive an urn filled with ashes.
During this time, she went through this difficult period with Jiang Yihuan.
Ye Qi remained silent. She had no idea how dark and difficult these days had been; she had thought it was just a simple burial.
Jiang Yihuan did not rush to bury her. She kept her ashes by her side and preserved them with light magic, doing only one thing each day.
Carve a tombstone.
When the tombstone was finally finished, Ye Qi saw it and collapsed to the ground, weeping silently.
My memories seem to have drifted back to a long time ago.
After Ye Qi and Jiang Yihuan buried their master, in order to dispel her loneliness and sadness, she put a chokehold on Jiang Yihuan, who quickly dodged it.
Ye Qi had already guessed that Jiang Yihuan would avoid it, so she snorted, then put her arm around Jiang Yihuan's shoulder, her cheerful tone concealing endless loneliness:
"Those two old women are so happy to leave together! Now we're left to collect their corpses!"
"Hmph! We'll find an apprentice to collect our corpses someday too."
Jiang Yihuan said coldly, "I'm not going to die with you. It's bad luck. If anyone's going to die, it's you who should die first."
Ye Qi slammed her elbow into her: "Hmph! I'm the future Dark Goddess of the beautiful girl world! What an honor it is to die alongside the future Dark Goddess! Don't you understand the value of that honor? You're so shallow!"
Jiang Yihuan rolled her eyes at her and said nothing more.
Ye Qi, however, embraced her and dreamed about the future: "It's just the two of us left! We two have to live well!"
"Da Guang, don't worry, if you die first, I'll carve a sparkling, glowing, multicolored prism tombstone for you! It'll be worthy of your status!"
Jiang Yihuan: "Get out!"
"Hmph! I'm not leaving! I don't care! I've done everything for you! You have to do something for me too! If I die first, you have to make me a tombstone covered in flowers, and write 'Tomb of the Future Dark God' on it! And 'Jiang Yihuan's forever elder brother'!"
"How cool is that!"
Jiang Yihuan kicked her away: "Get lost! I think you're asking for a beating!"
After being kicked away, Ye Qi immediately went back and chased after Jiang Yihuan to beat her up.
...
The tombstone in front of me was covered with flowers and read:
Ye Qi, the future God of Darkness.
At the very bottom, a small line of text reads: "Jiang Yihuan's family forever."
Ye Qi looked at the tombstone, sobbing uncontrollably.
Jiang Yihuan remembered those unintentional words from back then for a long time.
Ye Qi followed Jiang Yihuan to handle the funeral arrangements. She watched as Jiang Yihuan chose an auspicious burial site for her, and without batting an eye, she ruthlessly spent all her savings and took out a loan to buy a place where the rising sun could shine every day.
Jiang Yihuan sighed as if no one else was around: "Perfect timing, you like to get up early every morning to sunbathe and sleep in the yard."
On the seventh day after his death, the sky was full of dark clouds, as if a huge black mouth was about to swallow up all the light, and heavy rain came swaying in the wind.
Jiang Yihuan waited for a long time.
Jiang Yihuan, dressed in a black dress and holding a black umbrella, stood silently in front of Ye Qi's tombstone.
She let the endless sorrow flow through her entire body.
She didn't shed a single tear, yet she was more sorrowful than anyone else.
Finally, she stretched out her hand, even though the magic surged and her whole body ached terribly, she was determined to use this magic.
Even though she knew that using magic during a magical surge would cause her excruciating pain for a month, the agonizing agony still couldn't stop her—
Do one last thing for Ye Qi.
Green vines climb the tombstone, blooming with flowers that never fade, as if the tombstone's owner would never lose the vitality of life.
Because of the power of light, no one can remove the flowers unless their owner dies.
Rain pattered against the umbrella's surface, shattering the silence of the area.
Rainwater flowed like a river, constantly washing over the bluestone ground, and sorrow flowed against the current, filling Jiang Yihuan's heart like a river.
Jiang Yihuan murmured softly, "Why...why didn't you wait for me to die together?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Qi suddenly looked up at Jiang Yihuan, as if the sorrow had infected her at that moment.
Ye Qi apologized softly, "I'm sorry, I broke my promise..."
Jiang Yihuan stood there, waiting until the next morning when the sun peeked out from behind the clouds.
She returned home dejectedly, opened the door, and remained motionless for a long time before remembering that Ye Qi was usually the first to turn on the lights; she had gotten used to it…
Now that Ye Qi isn't here, no one is the first to turn on the lights.
In the empty house, with four rooms, there was only one person left.
Jiang Yihuan suddenly remembered the day her master was buried, when Ye Qi smiled and said to her in the sunset:
"It's just the two of us left! We have to make sure we survive!"
Jiang Yihuan's fingers, resting on the doorknob, curled up unconsciously. In front of her was the darkness of her home, and behind her was the world bathed in the morning sun.
She was separated in the middle.
Jiang Yihuan lowered her head, clutching Ye Qi's black magic ring tightly in her hand, her lips trembling: "Liar."
They had clearly agreed to live together.
at last……
She was all alone at home.
*
Ye Qi suddenly woke up, the sheet behind her was soaked with sweat.
Tears still clung to her face, and the guilt that had been weighing on her heart lingered for a long time.
She didn't know how Jiang Yihuan got through it afterward; she only knew that after she came into this world, her memories were automatically sealed away until she drank coffee and remembered everything.
It seems that Jiang Yihuan brought the Black Ring with her when she came over.
This is why the Black Ring encountered Jiang Yihuan first, rather than Ye Qi.
Unable to sleep, Ye Qi sat by the window gazing at the bright white moon, feeling a deep sense of melancholy.
On the other side.
The dark night was illuminated by the holy full moon.
The bright moonlight shone equally on every piece of land, including abandoned buildings.
"Bang--"
Liu Linlin was kicked into a corner, blood with a metallic taste spilling from the corner of her mouth.
Liu Linlin glared at the newcomer with bloodshot eyes, shouting angrily, "How dare you hit me! Do you know who I am?! I'm a rich heiress! If my father finds out, he'll definitely blacklist your sister! You're finished! Jiang Yihuan!"
Moonlight, like a silver veil, drifted into the drafty, abandoned building.
Jiang Yihuan walked out from the shadows and stood in front of Liu Linlin, the moonlight enveloping her. She gently hugged her and supported her back.
Jiang Yihuan looked at Liu Linlin with the eyes of someone looking at an ant: "You've crossed the line."
After returning home, Jiang Yihuan quickly composed herself, reviewed the events that Ye Qi had encountered that day, discovered some clues, and used her connections to investigate the matter.
It was only then that they discovered that both car accidents were orchestrated by Liu Linlin!
