Helpless, the system could only reveal the truth: "It's like this. After you were teleported away in the previous plane, he couldn't leave immediately. He had to leave according to the male supporting character's lifespan in the original story. He stayed in the Beast Spirit Human plane for another seventy years before leaving. Actually, it wasn't that boring. He built a very luxurious house for the two of you."
Lu Yan lived alone for seventy years, from his youth to his graying temples, from sunrise to sunset, he was always by himself.
Xia Yixin could no longer help but tremble slightly. Her heart felt as if it were being squeezed tightly by a hand, both sore and painful. A strong sense of self-blame filled her mind, leaving it blank.
She had only one thought in mind—to find him!
She must find him!
In order to better find Lu Yan, she used her [clone] function to create a Xia Yixin who was exactly the same as herself. The only difference was that she would experience a fake miscarriage, but she would continue to operate in this plane until she returned.
After all, the main quest is only at 99% right now.
Xia Yixin took an anonymous black card and some cash, left the capital, bought a new identity through the system, and became a 25-year-old single mother surnamed Zhang. Then she traveled freely to find him.
She completely shed her original identity, and Bai Wu and Bai Qi didn't notice.
Although she had some vague clues, it still took her three months to find them.
They also purchased leads from various places at high prices, most of which were fake.
She was over six months pregnant and had finally found a clue: it was in Country X, which was near Country Y.
It's a chaotic country where multiple regimes clash, seemingly calm on the surface but plagued by insecurity, and covered in snow year-round, with nothing but strong liquor and snow.
Xia Yixin has now transformed into an ordinary-looking woman through a change of appearance and clothing.
The country was chaotic, and the tour guide really didn't understand why she wanted to come, especially since she was heavily pregnant. But since she had money, he still took her to where she wanted to go.
It was a bar.
She paid a large sum of money to the local guide before he agreed to take her there.
This place is covered in snow all year round, and the people are tough. In addition to work, they often come to bars to drink strong liquor. It is late at night, and the bar is bustling with activity. Many tall and strong people from Country X are coming and going, with stubble beards and dirty jokes.
The tour guide was a tall white man. He first asked Xia Yixin to describe the person she was looking for, and then he went in first.
On the bus.
Xia Yixin unconsciously clenched his hands. The black jade ring on his hand didn't get hot because he had given it to the puppet.
He just wanted to avoid her.
Her heart felt like it had been overturned, filled with mixed emotions.
After blaming herself, she felt angry. Why didn't he discuss it with her? Perhaps there were other ways, even if it was just facing it together! This bastard always had to make decisions on his own.
But despite her anger, she felt mostly heartache and fear.
What price will he pay? Will his hair turn white overnight, or worse, if he loses his vitality...? Illness, pain, despair...
The powerful man was defeated.
She dared not think any further.
Not long after, the tour guide returned. "They did say that a Chinese person comes here often, but he hasn't come for three days. I suggest we leave quickly; it's not safe here."
Xia Yixin shook her head. "I want to go in and take a look."
The tour guide disagreed, but Xia Yixin insisted, so she had no choice but to follow her inside again.
This place is a mixed bag, filled with filth and chaos.
Although Xia Yixin was in good physical condition, pregnancy still had some impact on her.
She was slightly out of breath when she walked into the bar; her feet were numb with cold. She was wrapped in thick winter clothes, with only her bright little face showing. In front of these burly men, she looked like she was underage. Moreover, no one could see her belly under her winter clothes; they just thought it was because the clothes were big.
There was a moment of silence in the bar when she entered.
In the eyes of these drunkards.
She was like a lamb that had strayed into a pack of wolves, immediately attracting a lot of ardent stares.
A drunken, burly man broke the silence: "Hey little girl, how about playing with the brothers?"
His words drew agreement from the other drunkards.
"That's right, little girl, come on."
Many people whistled at her.
Xia Yixin remained unaffected. She glanced around and, upon seeing someone in the corner, her heart stirred, and she quickly walked over.
She nimbly dodged the drunkards who tried to grab her.
The tour guide, however, didn't dare to come in at all and stood timidly at the door.
Xia Yixin sat down opposite him without any trouble.
He was a tall, white man with a stubble beard and messy hair. He was looking at her with a mocking expression, and he looked no different from the other drunks here.
The only difference was that he slightly tightened his grip on the cup when Xia Yixin approached.
"Lu Yan, come home with me." She looked at him and said, word by word.
The man didn't speak, tilted his head back and finished his beer, mumbling in X language, "Little girl, I don't know what you mean."
Seeing that he was trying to put on an act with her, Xia Yixin simply sat down opposite him and replied to him in X language.
"Hello, my name is Xia Yixin. I like you. Can we be friends?"
The drunkards around her couldn't understand what she said before, but they understood this one and immediately started whistling and jeering.
There were even drunkards who would pat a scruffy-bearded man on the shoulder and say, "Hey buddy, you're really lucky!"
Amidst whistles and laughter, only the stubble-bearded man's mocking smile vanished. He abruptly stood up, grabbed Xia Yixin's arm, and rushed out of the bar.
He released her arm.
