Sufa smiled but did not answer.
Looking out into the distance, all that could be seen was the deep darkness of night. "I understand why you said those things to Xiaoxiao. Xiaoxiao dislikes you, so she'll naturally be more inclined to be close to me."
"Those words... weren't meant to deceive Xiaoxiao."
Feng Guang smiled and said, "Su Fa, tell me, why have I died so many times and been resurrected so many times? What methods did you use?"
"Does the scenery want to know?"
“Nonsense.” She looked up at her. “Tell me everything.”
Su Fa paused for a moment before slowly saying, "I don't know why. Maybe I'm not good enough. Every now and then, as your memories return, you want to leave me. I want to keep you, so... I can only imprison you in the Nameless Residence."
"In the end, I will all end up taking my own life, won't I?"
Sufa's eyes darkened. "Yes."
Feng Guang harbored a deep resentment, thinking, "Since I've died so many times, why won't you let me go?"
“I won’t let you die, and I won’t let you go.” Su Fa chuckled, revealing a captivating charm. “If you die even once, I will cut off one of my arms and rebuild your body. There is no better material than my body.”
Upon hearing this answer, Feng Guang was stunned for a long, long time. She repeated blankly, "Your body?"
“Strictly speaking, I am merely a Qi Devourer and do not have a real body. But I am willing to appear in human form for you, Fengguang. Do you know that Qi Devourers exist everywhere in the Three Realms? They hide in the darkest places in people's hearts. When the time comes, they will lead people to even darker corners. Therefore, my memories of you exist in my 'body'. I used my arms to recast your body and sealed your soul in my heart. As long as you take out my heart and put it into my body, you will come back to life.”
"Then don't you feel any pain!?" Feng Guang could hardly believe that this body of his was actually created by him using Devouring Qi. Even more unimaginable was that he could act so nonchalantly about cutting off his hands and digging out his heart!
Sufa smiled, "I'm not afraid of pain, and bringing you back to life to stay by my side is a very worthwhile thing."
No... something's not right...
Feng Guang stopped in his tracks, his mind replaying the contents of the letter. The letter said that he had hidden Xiao Xiao away, that he wanted to use her, and that his only goal was her heart... Why is everything reversed now?
"You said... that your heart is inside my body now, so why... why would you need my heart?"
"I need your heart?" Sufa blinked questioningly, his perfect face making such a bewildered expression that he looked almost innocent.
What a damn innocent person!
"Have you forgotten?! Venus told me that you were the one who asked for my heart."
“Venus…” He thought for a moment, then suddenly realized, “After the great battle more than a hundred years ago, Venus asked me what I wanted to get from Fengguang, and my answer was… I wanted to get your heart.”
Venus is an old man who has never been in love, but he has read quite a few books. A great demon like Sufa would never have romantic feelings for a woman. Ancient books also record that eating the heart of a god can not only grant immortality but also bring the dead back to life. Sufa has already achieved immortality, so his goal is naturally to bring the dead back to life.
