Chapter 385: Retribution and Redemption



Yun Qi held the unconscious Li Muge in his arms, his eyes filled with deep affection. He directly used his hand to create an array, leading the unconscious Li Muge into the teleportation array.

He thought about it for a long time.

Finally, a good idea came to mind that could free Li Muge from her fate.

Extract Li Muge's memories.

Let her forget all her former identities, and ideally, let her live in this time and space forever. If that's not possible, wait until she returns to the Phoenix Continent.

So, in her own time and space, he is no longer there.

Yun Qi carried the unconscious Li Muge to a seemingly ordinary valley. However, once inside, they saw many butterflies fluttering freely among the flowers.

This place is full of spiritual energy.

The air is fresh.

It is a secluded paradise suitable for cultivation.

Li Muge was carefully placed under the big willow tree by Yun Qi. His dark eyes were full of obsession, but beneath that obsession lay deep affection for Li Muge.

He remembered that the last time he changed Li Muge's appearance and voice and erased her memories in the mortal realm, he hoped that Li Muge could stay by his side forever.

This time, Yun Qi hopes that Li Muge can leave his life forever.

Yun Qi, suppressing her heartache, raised her hand and placed it on Li Muge's head, extracting Li Muge's memories. It felt as if a knife was slowly torturing her in her heart.

Li Muge opened her eyes groggily: "Yun Qi, what do you want to do?" But she quickly realized what Yun Qi wanted to do.

"No, Yun Qi, how could you do this without my permission?" Li Muge tried to stand up, leaning against the willow tree, but her fingernails had already dug into the blood, leaving deep marks on the willow tree.

"I don't want to forget, Yunqi, I beg you, I still have Ping'an, and our child." Li Muge could feel her memories fading away little by little. A tear fell from her eye; it was a tear of longing for her daughter.

It also shows her resentment towards Yun Qi's past relationship.

She still didn't understand why Yun Qi wanted to leave her, why he orchestrated everything, and why he insisted on leaving her.

Li Muge's last thought was about what exactly was written in that novel that made Yun Qi willing to let her resent him and forget her, in order to make this choice.

"Yun Qi." Li Muge raised her hand, her fingertips almost entirely covered in blood: "I love you. No matter what happens, I can face it with you."

"No." Yun Qi bent down and stroked Li Muge's pale cheek.

Li Muge could feel Yun Qi's hands trembling; he was afraid and reluctant to part with her.

"Yun Qi, I don't want to forget."

"No, Li Muge loves you. Even though everything is fake, I still want to let you live a carefree life."

Yun Qi leaned down and placed a kiss on Li Muge's lips.

Li Muge was filled with hatred. She bit Yun Qi, her eyes reddening. She hated this man for hiding things from her and refusing to let her face them together.

Yun Qi's lips were bitten until they bled by Li Muge, but she still couldn't bear to let go.

As the memories gradually faded from Li Muge's mind, many beautiful butterflies fluttered around the two of them.

It seems they are reluctant to part.

The couple is about to face separation.

Li Muge could no longer hold on; she closed her eyes, her body went limp, and she collapsed into Yun Qi's arms.

Tears streamed down Yun Qi's gentle face; he was always one to keep his emotions hidden.

He used to suffer a lot of pain and torment.

All of these became his motivation to climb higher.

He wants to climb to the pinnacle of power and wield absolute authority over life and death.

Yun Qi knew he wasn't a good person.

But the world only gave him harm, never giving him a chance to be a good person.

From the moment he chose to step into the demon realm.

They already had an utter loathing for the Three Realms.

Li Muge is his retribution.

It was also his salvation.

Yun Qi picked Li Muge up and carried her along the winding path to a small courtyard.

The courtyard gate opened automatically.

Yun Qi carried Li Muge inside, carefully stepped over the stairs, pushed open the door, and placed Li Muge on the soft couch.

To ensure the plan goes perfectly.

Yun Qi used magic to cut a gash in his palm.

Using one's own blood as a catalyst.

A curse was planted on Li Muge, preventing them from ever meeting again.

Even if we never meet again in any future life, all I want is for you to be safe and happy.

After saying this, Yun Qi, dressed in a black python robe, slowly disappeared from the room.

Li Muge, who was unconscious, twitched his fingers, as if trying to grab something, but he was powerless to do so.

at the same time.

The Buddha Shakyamuni, who was chanting sutras and reciting Buddhist prayers in the Buddhist hall, seemed to sense something. He put down his prayer beads, his eyes filled with many thoughts.

——

Fifty years later -

Butterfly Valley.

For years, Li Muge has lived alone in this vast valley, with only these little butterflies as her companions.

She doesn't remember who it was before?

They didn't even know their own names.

The butterflies all said she was human.

But I don't know why she's here.

Until one day.

She found a tower-like human in Butterfly Valley; he seemed to have fallen from the sky.

And his hair is different from hers.

Her hair was black, but this person's hair was red.

His body was covered in blood and gore; if Li Muge hadn't discovered him, he probably would have been dead.

Li Muge's life was incredibly boring.

When this person wakes up, she wants him to tell her what the outside world is like.

Every day passes.

Li Muge then used a stone to make a mark on the wooden board.

Two weeks later, the man finally woke up.

Li Muge breathed a sigh of relief; she had even dug the pit this man had set for her.

To be honest, Li Muge felt quite embarrassed, but she had nothing to do all day, and besides, it's always good to prepare in advance for everything.

Changyan woke up.

Over the years, he has searched far and wide in search of Ye Luo.

But there was no trace of Ye Luo.

The feeling of searching for someone but being unable to find them is truly unpleasant.

Changyan recalled how mortals always said they would drown their sorrows in alcohol.

So I decided to give it a try.

He was drunk, but Ye Luo's voice and smile remained etched in his heart.

What mortals say is utterly foolish.

The more drunk I get, the more sober I become.

To amplify his pain, Changyan chose to drink more alcohol in order to numb himself.

Drunk and intoxicated, he was ambushed by demons on the road, injured and fell off a cliff.

"Hey, you're awake! What's your name? How old are you?"

Li Muge was overjoyed to see that the unfamiliar man had woken up. She placed the medicine she had just prepared on the table and smiled broadly.

Changyan's heart skipped a beat.

It's over.

It seems I really am dead.

I was surprised to see Ye Luo in the Yellow Springs.

Is this an illusion, or has Ye Luo already died?

Could it be that Ye Luo is already dead, waiting for him in the underworld?

Chang Yan's pupils grew misty as he tightly embraced Li Muge: "Ye Luo, I'm so sorry for making you wait and suffer all these years."

"If I had known I was going to die, I should have ended it sooner."
