Lu Qingsi, whom everyone thought was dead, was actually alive and well. When she groggily opened her eyes, she found herself back in a familiar place.
This is where Lu's mother first found her. The night was hazy, and she couldn't see anything clearly, only hearing the babbling of the water and its cheerful melody.
She reached out and actually touched the pebbles under her feet.
She is truly alive and well now, not killed by that sword. But Lu Ming is truly dead, with no chance of coming back to life. Lu Qingsi looked down at Lu Ming's soul in her palm, hurriedly found a jade bracelet and placed it on it, so that he could possess the bracelet and not dissipate quickly.
"Brother, I was wrong. I shouldn't have liked Rong Xu." Lu Qingsi whispered as she lay on the gravel beach, clear liquid dripping from her face, making the already cold pebbles beneath her even colder.
Lu Qingsi didn't want to return to the Floating Dream Sect. If she went back, how could she face Elder He? Elder He had been completely devoted to Lu Ming, and his affection for her extended to Lu Ming as well. How could she explain to those people that while both she and her brother had been killed, she was still alive and well?
"Brother, I have no home again," Lu Qingsi said. She had known since childhood that she wasn't born to her mother. Although she couldn't leave the mountain due to her age, she always thought of leaving some good things for her mother and Lu Ming, because they were the two who gave her a home and the Floating Dream Sect. Elder He was a respectable elder, and compared to him, Jade Void True Person was clearly inferior. Even after accompanying him for so long, Lu Qingsi's feelings for him were obviously much less, and she felt no reluctance to leave.
As Lu Qingsi spoke, the jade bracelet on her wrist showed no reaction.
Lu Qingsi knew that she had only captured a small part of Lu Ming's soul, and an incomplete soul has no consciousness of its own. Lu Ming now remembered nothing, like a blank sheet of paper, making him a highly desirable tonic in the eyes of those demons.
Already exhausted, Lu Qingsi stood up and followed the stream into the mountains. After walking for most of the night, she collapsed on the ground and fell into a deep sleep.
Lu Qingsi felt something touching her. She opened her eyes warily and met a pair of pure eyes—the eyes of a mountain deer.
He has a pair of beautiful horns on his head, which look small now and will take a long time to grow.
"Thank you," Lu Qingsi said, then watched as it nudged its gaze away from her, took a few steps to leave, turned back to look at her again, and then galloped into the forest, disappearing from sight.
Lu Qingsi smiled. She had lost all her cultivation, and it was as if she had been given a new body, so everything had to start from scratch. Even the hunger that shouldn't have existed after entering the Golden Core stage suddenly returned.
She hurriedly bit into the slightly sour fruit and wolfed it down, feeling a surge of satisfaction in her empty stomach.
Lu Qingsi was about to go to the stream to drink some water when she was startled by the reflection in the water. The reflection was somewhat dim due to the surrounding light, but it was still clearly visible that the messy birthmark that should have been on her face was gone!
How could a birthmark suddenly disappear? Lu Qingsi touched her face, lost in thought.
