Time flies, and another month has passed in the blink of an eye.

During this period, Hu Baibai never left Shen Shuchou's side, muttering to himself like a madman all day long.

Fox Bai Bai didn't know how many times she had shed tears, nor how many days and nights she hadn't slept.

She seemed to have lost her soul, like a walking corpse, enduring inhuman torture every single second.

"Don't cry."

Just then, a gentle female voice rang in Fox White's ear.

Yu Linghuan had arrived beside Hu Baibai without anyone noticing.

Fox Bai Bai remained silent, still nestled in Shen Shu Chou's arms.

Over the past month, under Hu Baibai's tireless influence, Shen Shuchou's cold body gradually regained warmth, but his heart no longer showed any signs of beating.

"If he were still alive, he would certainly not want you to be so sad. Please don't cry, okay?"

Yu Linghuan bent down and gently comforted her.

Seeing Hu Baibai in this state, Yu Linghuan felt a pang of pain in her heart.

As she gradually came into contact with Shen Shuchou, she could sense that he harbored a desire to die.

Although I don't understand what secret Shen Shuchou is hiding, what he did was really too cruel to Hu Baibai.

She vaguely remembered a sentence that Shen Shuchou had once said.

Some people are destined to be just passersby in our lives, so there's no need to be sad.

For Shen Shuchou, he may have been just a passerby in his life, but for Hu Baibai, he was a significant chapter in her life.

Fox White remained silent, and Yu Linghuan said nothing more, simply staying quietly by her side.

Before they parted ways last time, she left Fox White a communication talisman, telling her that she could contact her if she needed anything.

Yesterday, she received a telepathic message from Hu Baibai and rushed over immediately.

"I would like to ask you to help look after my owner."

After a moment, Fox White spoke in a hoarse voice.

Yu Linghuan's eyes flickered, as if she were thinking about something, before she asked, "What are you going to do?"

"revenge."

Fox White's words were concise and to the point; those two words alone conveyed the boundless killing intent in her heart.

"With your current cultivation level, you are incapable of taking revenge. The most important thing right now is to survive, so that you will have a chance to take revenge in the future."

Yu Linghuan was slightly startled and said.

"I have my own way. In the meantime, you just need to take good care of my master."

Fox Bai Bai reluctantly stood up from Shen Shu Chou's arms, but stumbled as she did so.

She is so weak now that it seems a gentle breeze could knock her over.

"No, I can't let you go."

Seeing that Hu Baibai almost lost her balance, Yu Linghuan was even less likely to let her do anything foolish.

"I told you, I have my own way."

Fox White's voice turned cold.

Those empty pupils were like an endless abyss, carrying a chilling aura.

For a moment, Yu Linghuan felt a chill run down her spine, and an inexplicable sense of fear welled up inside her.

At this moment, Yu Linghuan felt that the fox Bai Bai in front of her had changed instantly, becoming frightening. Just one glance was enough to send chills down one's spine.

Seeing this, Yu Linghuan said no more and nodded slightly, "I will take good care of it for you."

"When I get out, I will come here to find you. If I find that you have disappeared with my master by then, I will definitely kill you."

Fox White's voice was like the cold wind in a desolate, cold night, chilling to the bone.

Yu Linghuan forced a smile and said, "Are you afraid I'll eat your master?"

Fox Bai Bai stopped answering, turned around and returned to Shen Shu Chou's side. Her previously cold eyes instantly softened, and she said, "Master, wait for Bai Bai to come back."

Fox White's small mouth gently kissed Shen Shuchou's bloodless lips.

After doing all this, Hu Baibai bid farewell to Yu Linghuan and sped away towards the edge of the bamboo forest.

She was heading to Meteor Valley. Fox Bai Bai had a strong feeling that only by going there could she have a chance to bring Shen Shu Chou back to life. At the same time, it seemed that there was something there that was of vital importance to her waiting for her to obtain.

Watching Hu Baibai's retreating figure, Yu Linghuan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. Hu Baibai had truly frightened her just now.

Yu Linghuan gazed at the lifeless Shen Shuchou with her beautiful eyes, her thoughts swirling.

"You are truly heartless and ungrateful. You died so freely, leaving behind only sorrow in the world."

Yu Linghuan's eyes flickered.

"So what secret do you have that makes you willing to give up your unparalleled talent and face death?"

Yu Linghuan continued.

She could never see through Shen Shuchou; Yu Linghuan even sometimes felt that he shouldn't exist in this world.

That carefree attitude, that composure, and that elusive secret were all things that Yu Linghuan could not understand.

Afterwards, Yu Linghuan simply sat down next to Shen Shuchou and stared blankly at his face.

Something suddenly occurred to her, and her almond-shaped eyes were filled with intense inner turmoil.

A moment later, Yu Linghuan turned around and glanced behind her, as if she had made up her mind.

Immediately afterwards, she used her inner energy to lift Shen Shuchou's body and slowly walk into the house.

Yu Linghuan's fair face flushed crimson as she gently removed her clothes with her delicate hands.

In an instant, the entire room was filled with an alluring spring-like atmosphere.

Sunlight streamed through the window, casting her snow-white silhouette onto the wall.

Looking at the motionless Shen Shuchou, Yu Linghuan suddenly had a strange feeling.

It felt as if someone was watching her from the shadows, and that feeling came from Shen Shuchou, who was lying beneath her.

"Hey! Don't scare me!"

Yu Linghuan said nervously.

But after a long while, Shen Shuchou beneath him did not make a sound.

Yu Linghuan felt a mixture of relief and slight regret.

But she couldn't care less about that. She closed her eyes and pressed herself against him, her body trembling slightly.

Before long, a series of blush-inducing moans echoed through the room like birdsong.

Little did they know, a pair of eyes in the heavens slowly closed at that moment.

After an unknown amount of time, Yu Linghuan limped out again, her face still flushed.

Behind her, Shen Shuchou slowly followed and walked out.

However, his eyes were completely empty, and his body was devoid of any vitality.

"From now on, your name will be Yu Shu, and I will be your wife. Do you understand?"

Yu Linghuan said breathlessly.

"Yes, ma'am."

Shen Shuchou responded in a mechanical voice.

"Speak with a little emotion."

Yu Linghuan wrinkled her nose and said with dissatisfaction.

"Yes, ma'am."

Shen Shuchou's voice was no different from that of an ordinary person this time.

Yu Linghuan then smiled with satisfaction.

She used the dual cultivation method of the Goddess Palace to turn Shen Shuchou into her puppet.

Yu Linghuan had her own selfish reasons for doing this.

She wanted to give Yu Shuiwei an explanation, and also to give herself an explanation.

Yu Shuiwei was very smart; even at only three years old, she had asked her father where he was several times.

Yu Linghuan couldn't bear the thought of her daughter never experiencing fatherly love, and the proud Yu Linghuan didn't want to just find someone to impersonate her.

Furthermore, Hu Baibai's departure today is what prompted Yu Linghuan to come up with this idea.

Yu Linghuan left a trace of her presence in the courtyard, so she could sense Hu Baibai's return immediately and then return Shen Shuchou to him.

Even if Hu Baibai sensed something, Yu Linghuan would bear the consequences alone, whether he wanted to kill or torture her.

Everything she's doing now is simply fulfilling her responsibilities as a mother.

Afterwards, Yu Linghuan led Shen Shuchou away from the small courtyard in the woods and sped off in one direction.

A day later, Yu Linghuan brought Shen Shuchou to a small cabin by the lake.

"Mom's back."

Before Yu Linghuan could even push open the door, a little girl in a pink dress ran out with her bare pink feet.

"Yu Shuiwei, where are your shoes? Aren't you going to wear them again?"

Yu Linghuan scolded him with a stern face.

"My shoes are uncomfortable, Mom, please don't scold me!"

Yu Shuiwei pouted and acted coy.

Yu Shuiwei hugged Yu Linghuan's leg, tilted her head, and stared blankly at Shen Shuchou behind her.

On her delicately sculpted face, her large, bright eyes were filled with confusion.

"Look! Shuiwei, this is your father."

Yu Linghuan quickly introduced Shen Shuchou.

Upon hearing this, Yu Shuiwei released her grip and quickly rushed to Shen Shuchou's side.

After receiving Yu Linghuan's order, Shen Shuchou took the opportunity to hug her and asked with a smile, "Did you miss your father?"

"Yes, Shuiwei dreams about her father every night."

Yu Shuiwei said in a childish voice.

Upon seeing this heartwarming scene, Yu Linghuan's lips curled into a slight smile.
