My Endless Life.

Chapter 442 Ye Yue leaves
"How could it be Mu Xi... How could it be Mu Xi..."

After everything was over, Ye Yue lay on the sofa in the mansion, staring at the ceiling with wide eyes, muttering with a look of despair.

Li Qi sat next to her and said nothing, just watching her go crazy.

"I was actually ordered around by Mu Xi for so long..."

"..."

"I seem to still think of her as my daughter..."

"..."

"I also tell her bedtime stories every day..."

"..."

“I even…even want to really make her my daughter!!! Aaaaaah!!!”

As soon as she said this, Ye Yue collapsed on the sofa, buried her face in the pillow, and let out a muffled scream.

"…Have you gone mad enough?"

Seeing Ye Yue rolling around on the sofa as if she was too embarrassed to face anyone, Li Qi could not help but be even more speechless.

He calmly interrupted Ye Yue's crazy behavior and said softly: "Instead of going crazy here, you might as well think about why Mu Xi became like this."

Previously, Li Qi thought that Mu Xi was gone. The world had become like this, and there was no way Mu Xi could survive without recovering her memory.

Even if Mu Xi really recovered her memory, her chances of survival were not high. After all, Mu Xi was different from Li Qi. She did not have that much talent. Even with the powerful soul that the undead were proud of, she was only level four.

At this level, I'm afraid even some simple hypnosis cannot be used.

Therefore, Li Qi had never seriously looked for Mu Xi. He thought that she had died outside and her soul had been reincarnated into the next life.

But who would have thought that Mu Xi was right next to him.

But it is a big question whether Mu Xi can still be called "Mu Xi" now.

Because she obviously no longer remembered anything about Mu Xi, she was completely based on the memory and consciousness of Yi Cheng. If she continued to reincarnate in this state, then in the next life, Mu Xi would completely die and truly become another person.

So what Li Qi and Ye Yue have to consider now is how to help Mu Xi recover her memory, and... find out why Mu Xi has become like this.

Li Qi's question stopped Ye Yue's movements. She lay motionless on the sofa. After a long while, she said in a muffled voice:

"Obviously, she's been reincarnated too many times."

"But she clearly reincarnated with me."

Although Mu Xi died earlier than Li Qi in her previous life, she used the special secret method of the undead race to wait for Li Qi for a hundred years.

Li Qi left the martial arts world at the same time as Mu Xi, so they arrived in this world almost at the same time. The time difference between them was probably less than a year.

Even if the time difference between this world and other worlds is huge, the difference is at most a hundred years, which is about the same. It is impossible for Mu Xi to reincarnate several times in a hundred years.

And they are all in the same world.

Ye Yue obviously couldn't figure out this question. She sat up with a serious expression and said to Li Qi:

"That means there's something wrong with the time in this world, or... something unexpected happened to her during her reincarnation into this world, and she was sent to a more distant past."

"A strange object...?"

Li Qi thought of the strange object.

If Mu Xi accidentally came across some strange object when she came to this world, then perhaps she would become like Ye Yue said and be sent back to the past to reincarnate.

Li Qi was thinking about why Mu Xi became like this, when he heard Ye Yue say:

"Now there is another very important question."

"what?"

"Is Mu Xi trapped here an isolated case, or...are we all going to be trapped here?"

Ye Yue asked seriously, with a hint of fear in her words.

Ye Yue’s question also surprised Li Qi.

If Mu Xi was trapped here because she touched something she shouldn't have touched, or if she was simply unlucky and was sent to the distant past and was unable to recover her memory, causing her to reincarnate over and over again, then that would be understandable.

This is just Mu Xi's own factor.

But what if... Mu Xi being trapped here is not Mu Xi's own fault, does that mean Ye Yue and Li Qi will also be trapped in this world?

Thinking of this, Li Qi couldn't sit still. He stood up and said:

"I'll go see if I can wake Mu Xi up."

If you want to know the answer to the question, the simplest and most convenient way now is to directly awaken Mu Xi's memory and ask her.

But as soon as Li Qi stood up, Ye Yue said:

"No need to go through so much trouble. I will just reincarnate and leave. I will set a mark in this body. If I fail to reincarnate successfully, I will return to this body. If I succeed in reincarnation..."

"You're not coming back, are you?"

Li Qi took over Ye Yue's words and said.

Ye Yue nodded seriously.

She originally wanted to leave here, but because Yi Cheng was here, she stayed for a while.

Now that we know that Yi Cheng is Mu Xi, who is herself a member of the undead race, and Li Qi is here to help look after her, even if Mu Xi has not recovered her memory, Li Qi can find a way to take Mu Xi away. Without any worries, Ye Yue can naturally leave this world.

Li Qi did not agree with Ye Yue's decision for a while.

He was still thinking about the feasibility of Ye Yue's method.

After thinking for a while, Li Qi asked Ye Yue, "Aren't you worried that you will end up in the same situation as Mu Xi after you leave?"

All of Li Qi and Ye Yue’s previous assumptions were based on the fact that Mu Xi had not recovered her memory and had been reincarnated several times in this world in a daze.

But what if Mu Xi actually recovered her memory in her first life?

With Mu Xi's intelligence, if she found something wrong with this world, she would probably make the same choice as Ye Yue. Therefore, it is very likely that Mu Xi's current situation is caused by her wanting to forcibly reincarnate but failing.

If Ye Yue wanted to conduct an 'experiment' in this way, she would probably end up like Mu Xi.

That is to say, she neither successfully left this world nor could her current body come back, so she just continued to reincarnate in this world in a daze.

The premise is that humans in this world still have a future.

"There's no other way. I can only try this now."

Ye Yue had obviously thought it over carefully and did not make such a decision on impulse. She said to Li Qi seriously:
"If I'm really so unlucky that I don't come back and am trapped in this world, then everything from now on will depend on you."

It would be better to say that it would be impossible without Li Qi.

Apart from Li Qi, Ye Yue has no one to rely on in this world.

After hearing what Ye Yue said, Li Qi stopped trying to persuade her. He was silent for two seconds and suddenly asked:

“…What’s your real name?”

He has never asked Ye Yue's real name.

"Ye Yue."

This time Ye Yue didn't hide anything.

Li Qi nodded slightly and said to Ye Yue: "Wait for me."

Having said that, he turned and went upstairs to his room. A few minutes later, he came downstairs holding a palm-sized doll.

Ye Yue looked at Li Qi strangely. Just as she was about to ask, Li Qi stuffed the palm-sized doll that looked a bit like Ye Yue into Ye Yue's arms:
"This is a stand-in doll I made based on your 'Stand-In Straw Doll'. You should know how to use it."

"Will this... work?"

"Even if it doesn't work much, it's still a psychological comfort. It won't hurt to try anyway."

Li Qi said casually, and then said to Ye Yue seriously:

"Also, my name is Li Qi, this is my real name."

……

Ye Yue didn't come back in the end.

After the two exchanged their real names, Ye Yue left this world without any regrets.

Li Qi sat opposite her body, which was actually a corpse, and waited quietly for a whole day.

The body never moved again, and the substitute doll that was tightly grasped by the body remained intact and did not move at all.

This means that Ye Yue has successfully left this world. Otherwise, even if she was trapped in this world and could not leave, and did not return to this body, her soul would enter Li Qi's substitute doll.

The worst result is that the substitute doll turns into a pool of blood.

So now the stand-in doll has no reaction, and that is the best outcome.

The undead can still leave, which means Li Qi can also leave. Mu Xi's situation is really just an isolated case.

After hearing the news, Li Qi was greatly relieved.

Although his method of reincarnation is different from that of the undead, who knows that the method used against the undead will not be effective against him?

Ultimately both are souls leaving this world and then reincarnating into the next.

If this world is targeting this simple basic method, then neither Li Qi nor the undead will be able to leave here.

Now at least he knew that the undead could leave and had a way out, so Li Qi felt a lot more relieved.

"First, nurture Muxi's core and restore her memory as soon as possible, and then go look for the ancient ruins."

After seeing Ye Yue off, Li Qi helped her to tidy up her body and planned her next itinerary.

Yi Cheng is still Yi Cheng now. She has not recovered Mu Xi's memory. Judging from the size of the core in her mind now, even if she recovers her memory, her personality will probably be dominated by Yi Cheng in the future.

The Mu Xi that Li Qi knew might never come back.

After a slight sigh, Li Qi finally understood why Yi Cheng treated him as a friend as soon as they met, and why Yi Cheng so coincidentally pulled Ye Yue over.

Because she herself is undead, but she doesn't know it.

A tombstone was built to bury Ye Yue's body. Li Qi was about to turn around to explain to Yi Cheng, when he suddenly saw Li Qiao running from the mansion to Li Qi in a hurry:
"Xiao An! Come out and take a look! Something's going on!"

"what happened?"

Seeing Li Qiao's anxious look, Li Qi's heart trembled. He followed Li Qiao out of the Dream Town and asked what happened.

The matter was urgent, and Li Qiao explained concisely:

"Something's not right with the Sun family. They seem to treat us as their own family!"

"?"

A question mark appeared above Li Qi's head, and he had already left the town and returned to reality.

As it happened, when he just came back, Sun Zhongguo pushed the door open from outside and said with a sad face:

“…I went to Old Wu’s house and they said they had run out of wax too.”

After he finished speaking, Sun Zhongguo seemed to have just seen Li Qi coming out of the room. He was stunned for a moment, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, and then he put away the sad expression on his face, showed a forced smile and said to Li Qi:

"Are you awake, Xiao An? If you are awake, go and have dinner. Your cousin and aunt should have prepared the meal."

There was no alienation in his words, as if he completely treated Li Qi as a family member.

Li Qi turned to look at Li Qiao. Li Qiao was also looking at him, as if asking Li Qi if there was something wrong with his hypnosis magic.

But only Li Qi himself knew that he had never given any hint to the Sun family to treat him and Li Qiao as relatives.
