Xu Nian understood: Fu Yue had a mental illness, and that mental illness was still caused by her.
She really wanted to question him, asking him what she had done to deserve him becoming like this.
She's not outstanding, but she's not outstanding either.
She's pretty; there are plenty of beautiful women in the base, she's just considered pretty.
She was cold and aloof, not good at talking, and not as charming as others. She could even hit him if they disagreed.
But this guy actually enjoys it; if she ignores him, he gets uncomfortable.
Their relationship has always been one where he goes along with her.
To outsiders, Fu Yue might seem quite pitiful.
He gets the cold shoulder from his wife all the time, and then he has to endure her beatings and scoldings while still trying to please her with a fawning expression.
Shouldn't she be the one harboring resentment?
He relied on his superior strength and status to force himself on her, and she couldn't resist but also couldn't bring herself to kill him.
Who knows the frustration she feels?
Now it turns out that it's not her who's sick, it's Fu Yue. Who can she complain to about this?
Xu Nian was in excruciating pain, so she let go of Fu Yue and leaned weakly against the car seat.
After a long while, she looked at the person opposite her and said in a calm tone, "Fu Yue, what do I have to do for you to act normal?"
"Niannian, I..." Fu Yue wanted to say that he wasn't sick, but when he thought about his actions, he realized that in other people's eyes, he was indeed seriously ill.
In Niannian's eyes, he had long been a madman.
Seeing the woman's worried expression, her eyes filled with deep contemplation and helplessness when she looked at him.
Fu Yue lowered his head. He thought for a long time and finally made up his mind to say, "As long as you promise me that you will be with me for the rest of your life, I will change and become a better person."
“Niannian, you know, my love for you has reached the point of blindness. I’ve always been afraid that once you reach the nine-star level, you will leave me.” Fu Yue had always been very clear that Xu Nian could divorce him once she reached the nine-star level, without needing his consent at all.
It is precisely because I know it all too well that I find it even more unacceptable.
He couldn't stop her from moving forward, so he could only use despicable means to keep her by his side.
"Niannian, I can accept that you don't love me, but I can't accept that my world is without you." Fu Yue's eyes began to redden as he spoke, and the sinister, dark, and crazy look in his eyes was chilling.
He doesn't look like a galactic warrior at all; he looks more like a walking humanoid alien beast.
Unlike the Star Beast, he has thoughts, and his own loves, hates, desires, anger, and resentments.
Fu Yue understood perfectly well that the more crazy he acted, the less likely Xu Nian would leave him.
She's such a kind person, she definitely wouldn't have the heart to see him hurt anyone in the base.
To protect everyone and to keep him calm, she would definitely choose to sacrifice herself.
As expected, she looked at him with complicated emotions for a long time, then nodded after a long silence and said, "Fu Yue, are you sure you can keep your word after I agree to your request?"
"I'm very sure." Fu Yue sat up straight and nodded repeatedly, his face and eyes filled with anticipation.
He knew Xu Nian's personality all too well; once she said something, she would never go back on her word.
If she agrees, he will never cross any of her boundaries for the rest of his life, and the marriage can last until the end of their lives.
As for the next life, it's not that Fu Yue doesn't want to, but he can't be too greedy right now!
"Fu Yue, I will never leave you in this lifetime. Can you put your mind at ease and stay with me?" Xu Nian tried her best to comfort Fu Yue.
She felt that Fu Yue was making a mountain out of a molehill, but then she realized that she wasn't innocent either, and that Fu Yue's behavior was related to her attitude.
It's because she hasn't expressed her opinion or told him anything about her thoughts that he's so anxious and uneasy now.
"Niannian, you keep your word, I believe you." Fu Yue happily hugged Xu Nian, resting his head on her shoulder, but a smug smile appeared on his lips.
His wife is so gullible, she's just too kind.
He was very dissatisfied that she had too many people on her mind.
But if it weren't for her kindness, he really wouldn't have been able to control her.
Now, she has chosen to stay by his side entirely of her own volition.
Fu Yue was in high spirits and started the hovercar to continue flying towards the edge of the base.
He didn't ask Xu Nian where she was going or what she was going to do.
He is a devoted husband who follows his wife's lead. Xu Nian can go wherever she wants; he will always stand by her side to protect her.
The hovercar stopped at the edge of the base, and Xu Nian led Fu Yue out of the car and out of the base.
Her goal was clear: to return to the place where her parents died ten years ago and search for traces of that ninth-tier star beast.
Once outside the base, Xu Nian saw Fu Yue's obedient appearance and squeezed his wrist, saying, "This time we might face ninth-tier star beasts, and countless other star beast hordes. Even for you, it's possible you won't return. Do you still insist on coming with me?"
"Of course, as a qualified husband, I can't let my wife face such a dangerous situation alone." Fu Yue's smile was doting, and even his tone was excessively gentle.
He has been in this state for a long time ever since Xu Nian agreed to stay with him.
He's content with his wife; he goes wherever Xu Nian goes.
Xu Nian gave Fu Yue a look. "Fu Yue, you're hopeless."
A hopeless case of being obsessed with love, in its late stages.
Though he outwardly showed disdain, the joy in his heart was impossible to hide.
Xu Nian realized that she was not normal either.
"..." Either die in silence or go mad in silence; she is now the latter.
Fu Yue did not refute Xu Nian's words. He had been sick ever since he met her, and he was sick willingly.
...
Xu Nian led Fu Yue through the desolate world for over an hour, killing countless star beasts along the way.
The road they had come from was littered with the corpses of various star beasts, which had become their landmarks.
After another fierce battle and search, the two finally arrived at the place where Xu Nian's parents had died.
Because of the deep-seated hatred, Xu Nian remembered this path clearly.
Surrounded by ruins, the bodies of her parents had long since disappeared.
Only a large crater overgrown with weeds on the ground proved that her parents did indeed die here.
Looking at the pit, memories flooded back, and the images of her parents before their deaths echoed in Xu Nian's mind.
Tears streamed down her face as she slowly knelt before the large crater. "Mom and Dad, we've come to see you."
Upon hearing Xu Nian's words, Fu Yue realized that Xu Nian's parents might be in the pit, and immediately kowtowed to the pit in greeting.
After paying respects to her parents, Xu Nian took Fu Yue and began wandering around this desolate city.
She told Fu Yue frankly that she was looking for traces of a ninth-tier star beast.
"Niannian, is there anything special about that star beast?" Fu Yue frowned. Ninth-tier star beasts can move. Ten years have passed, who knows where that ninth-tier star beast went!
"It looks like an ape, it's hairless, incredibly strong, and as tall as a five-story building. One punch from it can blow up several Seven-Star Warriors." Xu Nian tried her best to describe what she saw.
