"My lady, this is where I saved you. You were terrified, but you still tried to remain calm and directed the little maid. You were so adorable."
“My husband, this is the second time I’ve met you. You were being scolded by the bookstore owner, and I was the one who came to your rescue.”
"My wife, do you remember the first time you washed clothes? You beat the sleeves with a wooden stick until they were torn, and I had to teach you how to sew them."
"My husband, this is the first time I've ever eaten this osmanthus cake. You brought it back with you."
...
The two reminisced all the way, immersed in the sweetness of their memories.
That evening, the two prepared a large table of delicious dishes and also heated up a pot of wine.
"My wife, I respect you. You left your parents to take care of the household chores for me. You've worked so hard."
Shao Yao lowered his eyelids and accepted the wine.
"Smack..."
The chopsticks fell to the ground.
"The chopsticks are dirty, I'll go wash them."
My family was so poor that we only had two pairs of chopsticks.
Shao Yao switched the two glasses of wine, and Jing Han seemed unaware when he returned.
"My husband, you've worked so hard too, copying books every day to earn rice for our livelihood."
Shao Yao couldn't continue speaking. She held back the tears in her eyes and smiled as she clinked glasses with Jing Han.
The two drank a cup of nuptial wine and ate a few bites of food. Shao Yao watched as Jing Han's face slowly turned ashen.
"My wife, I'm not here anymore. Take good care of yourself. Go back and apologize to your parents. They will forgive you."
Dark red blood trickled from the corner of Jinghan's mouth, but he endured the excruciating pain and smiled as he gave his instructions.
Shao Yao asked, her voice choked with emotion, "Why?"
Jing Han touched Shao Yao's face. "Silly girl, I don't want you to die. I made a mistake once, but I will never make the same mistake again."
Shao Yao burst into tears, "You knew perfectly well, so why did you still drink it?"
Jing Han could no longer hold on. He coughed up blood while greedily staring at Shao Yao.
"I'm sorry... I'm sorry..."
In his dream, he went to the Heavenly Palace, thinking he was going to become an apprentice, but he didn't expect that the immortals wanted him, a person who had achieved perfect merit.
He was forced to merge with the immortal, but his cultivation was no match for the immortal's, and he was eventually fused with the immortal, and even his true spirit was completely annihilated.
Since death is inevitable anyway, why should he die at the hands of an immortal? He would rather die at the hands of his wife to atone for the sin of killing her in his previous life.
I only wish my wife a peaceful and happy life, and that everything goes smoothly for her.
Finally, he collapsed and stopped moving. Shao Yao hugged Jing Han's body, tears streaming down her face.
Jinghan's body slowly dissipated, turning into specks of light and disappearing into the courtyard.
Shao Yao's memories returned, and she remembered that she was a peony.
Xiao Li revealed herself, and Jing Han had indeed chosen a different path.
"elder sister……"
Xiao Li wiped away Xiao Shao's tears, "Congratulations, you have successfully transcended the tribulation. The karma between you and Immortal Lord Ziyang has been cleared. Let's go back to the valley."
Xiao Shao calmed down and looked at the courtyard, feeling a little unreal.
"So this is what scholars are like."
Xiao Li chuckled, "Jing Han is no ordinary scholar. He is an avatar of that immortal lord, so there is only one way out for him: to dissipate."
Xiao Shao seemed to be deep in thought. She finally let go of her worries and regained her liveliness.
"I understand. There's no need to dwell on the past. Being together is fate, and the beautiful memories will always stay in my heart. I won't dwell on the past, and I won't fear the future!"
Xiao Shao's state of mind seemed to have softened, and her cultivation level, which had been enlightened, had also improved slightly.
Xiao Li smiled, and the two of them joined hands to prepare to return to the valley.
A ripple came from the space, and a streak of light quickly landed in the courtyard.
"It's you again! You've gone too far! Why did you have to ruin my plans?"
Immortal Lord Ziyang was furious; he exploded the moment he saw Xiaoli.
"Why are you everywhere? I originally wanted to form a good relationship with you because of Xuan Nu, but you have opposed me time and time again. This time I can't let you live."
Immortal Lord Ziyang swiftly attacked, his immortal power striking towards Xiaoli's chest.
Xiao Li swiftly retaliated, her two streams of immortal power, one red and one gold, colliding in mid-air and unleashing a massive energy surge.
Xiao Shao was anxiously watching from the sidelines, but her strength was too weak to help at all.
"Sister is amazing. In just a few decades, she has been able to fight against immortal lords."
She was both worried and proud.
Xiao Li didn't expect that Immortal Lord Ziyang would come; it seems that the lost clone was very important to him.
She waved her hand and unleashed a stream of light, forcing back the Purple Sun Immortal Lord.
“Immortal Lord Ziyang, you are bullying the weak. I must report this to the Heavenly Emperor. If you leave now, I can forgive and forget.”
Xiao Li is currently a level below him, so it's a bit difficult for him to fight her. He'll deal with her when his cultivation level improves.
Ziyang Immortal Lord was blinded by anger; all he wanted to do was kill this hateful woman to vent his anger.
Immortal Lord Ziyang drew circles with both hands and pushed hard, unleashing an even stronger burst of immortal power than before.
Seeing that Xiaoli was about to get hurt, Xiaoshao quickly stepped in front of her.
Xiao Shao was struck by the immortal power, and her body slowly began to disintegrate.
Xiao Li hugged Xiao Shao and kept feeding her medicine, but she only had spiritual medicine and couldn't cure her immortal body at all.
She channeled her divine power into Xiao Shao's body again, and Xiao Shao finally woke up.
"elder sister……"
Tears welled up in Xiao Li's eyes. She hadn't protected the people the original owner cared about; instead, she had been the one who was protected.
"Xiao Shao, how are you?"
"I...I can't go on. I can...feel it. My immortal body is collapsing. I won't be able to...stay with my sister anymore. You have to...take good care of yourself."
Xiao Li hugged Xiao Shao; she didn't want Xiao Shao to just disappear like that.
Xiao Shao's immortal body finally disintegrated, leaving only a few specks of her true spirit slowly drifting in the air.
In less than ten breaths, these true spirits will also dissipate, and Xiao Shao will no longer exist in this world.
"Master, quickly send Xiao Shao's true spirit to the Yin River."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Li quickly gathered the true spirits together and sent them into the Yin River. Slowly, Xiao Shao's true spirits gradually took shape again, floating and sinking in the Yin River.
The ability to seal away souls is precisely the function of the Underworld River.
Xiao Li came to her senses and looked coldly at Immortal Lord Ziyang.
He had been watching the show from the sidelines, probably because he had never seen the cold and ruthless Xuan Nu so agitated, and that's why he forgot to take action.
"Now it's your turn."
Ziyang Immortal Lord spoke slowly. He had no intention of sparing Xiaoli's life today. Even though his clone was gone, he couldn't let the culprit get away with it.
Besides, after what just happened, Xuan Nu probably hates me. If Xiao Shao dies after failing her tribulation, she won't blame me.
Now Xiao Shao has died at her own hands. Considering the deep bond between the two sisters, this matter is unlikely to end well.
Xiao Li had no choice but to face the reality: this time, it was either him or her.
One gold and one red, the two streams of immortal energy collided continuously, emitting a dazzling halo that, from afar, was even more brilliant than fireworks.
Even with the spatial support, Xiao Li was almost hit several times, and after a quarter of an hour, she felt exhausted.
"What should we do? Are we going to perish here?"
