Seeing that Lin Yu did not believe him, the storyteller continued:
"Books contain the universe, but they cannot control one's destiny; one must earn one's own fate."
The enemy that Miss Lin chased for seven lifetimes was not an enemy, nor was the benefactor she chased for seven lifetimes.
But all of that is in the past.
Once this life is over, there is no possibility of being reborn.
Are you really planning to waste your time like this forever?
"What do you mean?"
Lin Yu stood up nervously, feeling that she wouldn't be able to bear what the storyteller was about to say.
She expected this man to know a lot, but she never imagined he even knew about her seven reincarnations.
A fear of having her life spied on invaded her heart.
This person knows far too much, unbelievably much.
This gave Lin Yu a feeling.
Even if he is just an ordinary person.
It would be incredibly easy for me to harm her.
Is he genuinely trying to help her by saying these things, or is he just using her?
Seeing Lin Yu's fully guarded demeanor, the gentleman sighed deeply.
"Once the life-exchange formation succeeds, the person being exchanged will not only have their cultivation level replaced, but will also rapidly decline and die."
Even if you're terrible at formations, you should still know this.
Any sinister formation will inevitably result in one side suffering a devastating blow.
Otherwise, the Life-Changing Array wouldn't have been listed as a forbidden technique.
"You are alive and well because a wisp of remnant soul from the Golden Jade Spiritual Rhinoceros is protecting you. Whose remnant soul is this? I need not say more, do I?"
Lin Yu had also thought about this question.
If the soul of the returning wild goose is incomplete, where did the rest go?
But on that day at the bottom of the cliff when the moon set, the way the wild geese flew away clearly showed their extreme disgust for her.
It even destroyed the Phoenix Sword, which was her last resort.
How could he protect her with a wisp of his remnant soul?
She couldn't deceive herself about this.
The storyteller continued, "That's all I have to say. If you still have any questions, young lady, please ask me."
Lin Yu is a stubborn and prejudiced person.
She neither believes nor listens to any rebuttals from others.
It is precisely because of this obsessive personality that he has ended up like this.
Even when faced with great hardship, ingrained habits are hard to change.
If something is fake, as long as she firmly believes in it, it won't matter if someone exposes it to her.
Even if something is genuine, if it's slightly disguised, she can still firmly believe it's fake.
Her temperament, coupled with being forced into positions of power that were not her own, led to her suffering through several lifetimes.
It's impossible to correct her with just a few words.
The more you say, the more mistakes you make.
It's better to let her find the answer herself.
Asking the person directly is the simplest and most direct method.
However, sometimes it is the most difficult method.
Lin Yu had considered asking him directly, but she was afraid of being rejected.
I'm afraid to see disgust and disdain in the eyes of the people I care about again.
She walked along the road, looking lost and dejected.
Most of the lights in the village had been turned off, and occasionally one could hear a dog barking, an insect chirping, a baby crying, and a woman gently soothing the child to sleep.
None of this concerns her.
She lingered there, trying to immerse herself in the noise and forget her troubles, but at that moment, she felt alone.
Avoiding problems is never the best solution.
————
The once lush and verdant summit of Guhong Mountain has long since turned into a desolate wasteland.
Lin Yu arrived here without realizing it.
She didn't know where to go.
This is the only place where I still have a little bit of longing.
However, the scenery here, like her state of mind, has become desolate and lifeless.
She walked through the mountains, trying to find traces of the past, but she couldn't find any.
Finally, Lin Yu stopped beside a slender branch that had sprouted new buds.
The new bud had just swelled up and hadn't bloomed yet.
Its roots are firmly planted in the rocks, yet it grows upright and will revive once it survives the last days of winter.
If one branch comes to life, an entire forest will come to life.
This mountain will come back to life.
She stood up, and in front of her was a figure in pure white.
He is here.
...
Moonset over Crow's Cry Valley
The strained relationship between the two fellow students, which had been tense for a few days, has eased considerably.
Ji Kongmeng no longer ignored Chu Yiming upon seeing him.
When Chu Yiming greeted him, he still had an awkward, expressionless face, but he was able to respond with a single word.
After all, Chu Yiming's attitude in admitting his mistake was very sincere.
He poured out his heart to Ji Kongmeng, and sincerely realized that it was wrong of him to decide other people's fates without considering Ji Kongmeng's wishes.
He swore a solemn oath that there would be no next time.
After Chu Yiming's persistent pleading, cajoling, and tearful pleas, Ji Kongmeng finally forgave her senior brother, who was about to faint from crying in front of his door, on a sunny afternoon.
It was Chu Yiming who was being disrespectful, but he was the one who felt incredibly ashamed.
In the end, Chu Yiming was right.
Ji Kongmen is cold-faced but soft-hearted; he ultimately can't bring himself to be ruthless towards his own people.
After hearing what Wushan Patriarch and Ye Wan did in the end, he felt a little sorry for Su Hanjiang.
Under those circumstances, Su Hanjiang really couldn't do anything.
But at the last moment.
Ye Wan went back despite the danger, and Su Hanjiang must have been terrified.
They must have also thought of three years ago, of the moment they lost Ye Wan in the Western Regions.
I recalled those three years of unbearable pain.
How desperate he must have felt in that instant when he was knocked unconscious!
