"Jinyu, could you let me stay in a room with a window?" Su Chen felt very depressed.
Almost no one spoke to her, the room was pitch black, and all she did all day was eat and sleep... and, instinctively, she was afraid of the dark.
"You want to escape?" Jin Yu's voice turned cold.
“I didn’t intend to run away, but you know, if I stay here, one day I might start thinking about dying.”
Jin Yu's voice turned cold again, "Are you threatening me?"
Su Chen knew he had misunderstood. "No, life is still beautiful. I still have many things to do. I don't want to die, and I'm afraid to die. It's just that in this darkness, I instinctively thought of death."
Jin Yu remained silent for a while, as if she had thought of something.
Back then, Su Chen fell into the Endless Abyss, and no one knew what was inside.
Even he, standing on the edge of the Endless Abyss, could feel the coldness and darkness of the abyss, and even had a feeling that he was being watched and was about to die.
That deep sense of despair.
Perhaps the powerful beings who once fell into the Endless Abyss were not incapable of emerging from it, but rather were infected and assimilated by the decay within the Abyss, and at that point, they could no longer escape.
Jin Yu tore her soul apart back then, perhaps out of compensation, perhaps out of initial joy, or perhaps a mixture of both.
His soul sensed the endless pure evil within the abyss, which had been in a state of chaos for countless years, and had been scattered and dispersed to countless worlds through fragments.
Those fragments returned to him after Su Chen broke the barrier he had set up in his previous life.
"Why?" Jin Yu asked.
Su Chen was stumped by his question.
What's wrong with this guy? Weren't we discussing changing rooms? After a long silence, Su Chen thought he wouldn't agree, but then he suddenly asked why.
Why else? Any normal person would go crazy if they stayed in a completely dark room for too long, right?
"Because I still want to live well and live happily. Science has proven that a person who stays in a dark room all the time is prone to depression." Su Chen said somewhat strangely after tentatively judging Jin Yu's location.
Jin Yu said in a muffled voice, "Okay."
Su Chen was overjoyed, "You agreed to change my room?"
However, all she got in return was a dull slam of the door shut.
Just when Su Chen thought there was no hope of ever getting out, and that she might very well grow old and die in this dark room for the rest of her life.
The door opened!
Then a blinding light shone in.
"Madam, the master has sent me to fetch you to Lengyue Palace." A strange man bowed to her.
Tears welled up in Su Chen's eyes, not from emotion, nor from joy. Rather... the light was too blinding!
It took Su Chen a while to adjust to the natural light before she followed the man outside.
This was the first time Su Chen had seen what the "dungeon" where she was imprisoned looked like.
This is a cave, or rather, a palace built within a cave.
After Su Chen's eyes adjusted to the outside light, she realized that the cave would be dark and terrifying to a normal person.
Perhaps it was because she had experienced so much, or perhaps it was because she had been imprisoned in the dungeon for so long, but she found the scenery in the cave to be exceptionally beautiful, like a paradise on earth.
Su Chen covered her forehead.
She's doomed. Has she developed Stockholm syndrome from being locked up?
No, no, she needs to calm down.
Su Chen asked the man next to her who claimed to be Jin Yu's subordinate, "Where is the Cold-Blooded Palace?"
