Chapter 681 You Loved Me Before You Lost Your Amnesia

As His fingertips touched his heart, a tingling electric current instantly coursed through his entire body.

Jiang Xinli's back tensed instantly.

Instinct told her that she should slap Him across the face right now.

But reason told her she couldn't.

At least not now.

"Don't you like it?" Seeing her silence, he continued to gently caress the skin on his chest with his fingertips.

His emotionless, dark red vertical pupils stared at her, like an abyss gazing at its prey.

Having spent a thousand years alone in the ultimate realm, He had long since become indifferent to matters of passion.

The touch now feels more like some kind of obsession that even He can't explain.

"If you don't like it, how should you say it?"

With a little force applied by her fingertips, a crimson mark was left on her fair and delicate skin, like a brand left after being tamed.

Jiang Xinli closed her eyes.

Clearly, He is using this method to subtly tame her.

She raised her hand and placed her palm on the back of his hand. "I like it."

He paused.

His warm palms moved slowly up her collarbone, finally grasping her fair and slender neck.

The girl's neck was as fragile as a flower stem that would break at the slightest touch, as if He could snap it with a "crack" if He exerted even a little force.

Yet, despite the perilous confinement, He saw no fear whatsoever in her eyes.

This caused a strange surge of anger to well up within Him.

She was still the same as before, easily able to stir up His emotions.

However, His expression remained calm.

Those dark red eyes were deep and calm, revealing no emotion whatsoever.

His thumb gently caressed her carotid artery, continuing upwards.

He grabbed her chin, forcing her to meet his gaze.

"Since you like it, how should I say it?"

Jiang Xinli: “.”

Subconsciously, she should show obedience and affection towards Him.

After all, acting was something she used to do with ease.

But reason prevented her from having any intention of acting.

She raised her hand, grasped his wrist, and said calmly, "A-Yuan, thank you."

Realizing her gratitude was somewhat inadequate, she changed the subject, "However, I'm very curious."

"Dragon crystal is the most precious thing a dragon possesses. You gave it to me, so you—"

She released His wrist and placed her palm against His heart.

There, the heartbeat is steady and strong.

Upon hearing the words "most precious," the black mist and inky red that surged in His eyes gradually subsided.

The anger subsided.

He took her hand and pressed it against his cold, handsome cheek, a slow smile playing on his lips.

"I am a god, born with the universe. I can be eternal even without dragon crystals."

He lowered his head and kissed her palm, his orange eyes turning into a gentle deep blue.

His voice was deep and gentle, with a hint of seduction, "In a while, you too will become a god and be able to coexist with the universe."

"Really?" Jiang Xinli was slightly taken aback.

She looked up, gazing into His eyes, and tentatively asked,

"Even if one gains immortality, one will be trapped in one place, alone for a thousand years."

His pupils remained unchanged, still a gentle deep blue.

She continued, "Then does that mean the meaning of becoming a god is lost?"

"With each other by your side, how can you be lonely?" His eyes welled up with tears, and he cupped her face in his hands.

"Besides, we'll be free soon."

Jiang Xinli's heart sank slightly.

For some reason, when she heard Him say "soon you will be free," she felt a strange unease and worry.

She was silent for a moment, then asked, "A-Yuan, who trapped you here?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the air felt a momentarily chilly, but quickly returned to normal.

"Want to know?" "Yes."

"is love."

"."

The air fell silent once more.

After a long silence, Jiang Xinli spoke softly, breaking the silence, "A-Yuan."

She pursed her lips and nestled obediently into His arms:
"Tell me about what happened before I lost my memory, okay?"

She tried to recall some things, but somehow, she could still see some fragmented images from before.

At this moment, however, I can't remember anything at all.

His gaze swept over the dragon crystal necklace around her neck, which shimmered with a blood-red light, and he said in a low voice:

"Before you lost your memory... you loved me very much and were very clingy to me."

"this is all."

Jiang Xinli: “…”

She didn't have complete amnesia, but some parts of her memory seemed to have been forcibly removed.

"I remember that females in interstellar space only awaken mental power, so why do I have wood-type abilities, and even an SS-level one?"

As she spoke, she lightly lifted her fingertips, and nine scarlet dodder vines and nine pale yellow dodder vines spread out from her fingertips.

She felt there was no need to hide the fact that she could use wood-based supernatural abilities.

After all, He knows her inside and out since she awoke.

Instead of covering it up, it's better to reveal some of the truth at the right time.

“Because you are not an ordinary female, you are destined—” He paused slightly, “to become a god who stands shoulder to shoulder with me.”

"After a while, when your memories are fully restored, you will know everything."

Jiang Xinli: “.”

"A while, how long?" she pressed.

"It will be soon." He pulled her back into his arms.
"The universe operates according to its own laws. Even gods cannot completely interfere with it."

He gently ran his fingertips through her hair. "Please wait a little longer, okay?"

Seeing that He kept avoiding answering, she didn't bother to press him any further.

Time passed by minute by minute.

He closed his eyes and quietly embraced her.

He seemed to enjoy the feeling of carrying her slowly and was also indulging in the feeling of her nestled in His arms.

The stars above shifted and changed, but their world seemed frozen in a stillness.

Jiang Xinli nestled in His arms for a long time before whispering, "A Yuan, I'm a little sleepy."

"Sleepy?" His vertical pupils snapped open, his eyes darkening, and his pale fingertips instantly transformed into jet-black claws.

Jiang Xinli recalled His anger when she said "tired" before, and her tone softened, carrying a hint of grievance.
"I am human, not a god, and I get tired too."

He sensed the stubbornness in her tone.

He sat up, and the sharp claws that had gripped her chin slowly returned to fingers, his fingertips caressing her lips. "Alright, go and rest."

He picked her up again and carried her slowly through one long corridor after another.

This time, Jiang Xinli did not close her eyes at all.

As she passed a spacious and empty hall, she asked softly:

"Ah Yuan, this place is so big, have you always been the only one here?"

After saying that, I realized my choice of words was inappropriate.

He is not a human being.

He is God.

The echoes gently reverberated in the empty hall.

"There used to be a lot of people," He replied casually.

Jiang Xinli said "Oh," and was about to ask when "before" was...
I could vaguely see a row of tall and imposing animal sculptures standing on both sides of the majestic hall.

It was difficult to see clearly through a barrier shrouded in flowing light.

But one can vaguely make out the Azure Dragon, the Mermaid, the Nine-Tailed Fox, and some mythical beasts that seem to have been seen in ancient myths.

A strange sense of familiarity quietly rose in my heart.

She thought for a moment, then asked softly, "A-Yuan, what are those?"

His steps did not falter; his calm, unwavering eyes swept across the hall. "Guardian of the gods."

Jiang Xinli gently tugged at His sleeve and pointed into the hall:
"Can I go in and take a look?"
