The improved female villains regained their memories.

------------------

Time: 1124th

The wind blows across the sky, leaves flutter down, scattering my thoughts and making dreams hard to recall.

Looking back, my feelings were tender and affectionate, but alas, the moon is waning again tonight.

------------------

The stone lock is gone.

The stone lock that had been with Sikong Xuan for many years was gone, replaced by an unconscious girl.

------------------

Sikong Xuan carried firewood and walked towards the house on the mountainside.

The wind was strong, and it blew into his eyes. He walked up the mountain path and pushed open the door.

The girl remained lying in bed, motionless.

He had fantasized that the girl might miraculously reincarnate, jump out of bed, and greet him just like she did back then.

"Hehehe, I've been lying here for ages..."

As he said those words, guilt welled up in his eyes.

She always felt like a burden, so she often wore that expression, afraid that others would abandon her.

Sikong Xuan piled the chopped firewood aside and then quietly watched the girl.

That would be great, if that's the case.

If she were to jump up and say it now, I would definitely respond.

------------------

Through 124 cycles, the girl confessed her love 1,123 times.

Each time, she would bump into him by chance and then confess her feelings.

And each time, he refused with a different reason.

Some reasons were ridiculous, some were serious, and some... didn't take the girl seriously at all.

So, do I like her?

Sikong Xuan recalled his conversation with Yang Pingsheng.

He said that liking something is meaningless; in the Eighth World, many things are meaningless, only strength has meaning.

However, since the path to immortality has been severed, strength is actually meaningless.

Then what in this world has any meaning?

As he was thinking, he suddenly noticed the girl's eyelids twitch.

He stood up abruptly, only to see that the girl had already opened her eyes and sat up.

Then he understood, this was the meaning.

------------------

However, although the girl woke up, she seemed to be in a daze.

She sat there blankly, speechless, like a puppet.

Even so, Sikong Xuan was very happy. He seemed to have found meaning. The dull, burly man turned into a chatterbox and would talk to her a lot every day.

"I ran into a fox on my way down the mountain today. Its fur was really beautiful. I wanted to catch it and make you a coat, but it got away. Haha, looks like I've been out of practice for too long and I'm rusty."

"Autumn is approaching, and the leaves are turning yellow. If you go down the mountain now, you can see the golden leaves. Although it's not as beautiful as the mangrove forest, it's still very pretty."

"Xiao Feng, it's been so long since I've had your desserts. I really want to have them again."

The wind whips the autumn leaves, sending them soaring to the highest heavens.

Sikong Xuan carried her as they walked along the mountain path strewn with autumn leaves.

Su Fengqing suddenly stiffened and slowly turned her head to look at Sikong Xuan.

It was a chilling scene, but Sikong Xuan wasn't afraid because he saw that the girl only had eyes for him.

"Sikong...Sikong Xuan..."

"what happened?"

"Would you like...to eat...dessert...?"

He should have realized the problem.

The girl's body was reduced to a remnant soul. She was born with a celestial body, and her physical body was exceptionally powerful. It was difficult to drive her with a complete soul, let alone a remnant soul.

He should have realized something was wrong, but he still said, "I want to eat."

He reached out his large, kind hand to wipe away the girl's trembling tears and said:

"I want to eat it again, no matter what."

------------------

In the room, green energy gathered on the plate.

Sikong Xuan could see clearly that this was formed by the girl gathering energy from her body.

What is this thing? Why would a girl condense something like this?

Sikong Xuan looked at her, puzzled.

"Eat, eat..." the girl repeated stiffly, tears welling up in her eyes again.

Sikong Xuan looked at her calmly, watching the girl tremble and shed tears, a sight that was deeply etched into his eyes.

"Okay." He nodded in agreement, reached for the plate, and swallowed it as he always had.

"Mmm, it's delicious."

Sikong Xuan's voice became ethereal, deep yet gentle.

He reached out and wiped away the girl's tears, just as he had done before.

The energy stimulated his mouth, his soul trembled, and intense pain surged in, but his eyes remained calm, without a trace of emotion.

He still said, "It's delicious."

------------------

My skin seems to be hardening.

The last rays of the setting sun shone through the window and fell upon him.

It's almost dark.

The rosy glow filled the room, draping evenly over the girl, like a wedding dress.

"Xiao Feng." Si Kongxuan called softly. This was all the tenderness he had. His skin gradually hardened, and the coldness seeped directly into the depths of his soul. "I have been wandering for a long time. Slowly, my body and soul also began to wander. Nothing could support me. I walked on the earth that bears everything, but I felt that my soul had nowhere to rest."

Her breathing became like a leaky old bellows, yet Sikong Xuan stubbornly gripped her trembling hand. The rosy clouds in his pupils shattered into dancing gold foil, and her features were brighter than when they first met more than a thousand lifetimes ago.

“Look at my hands, how rough they are. They have gripped sword hilts, squeezed rotten flesh, and strangled the throats of enemies, but now they will wipe away your tears.”

The blood froth in my throat tasted rusty, and the afterglow of the setting sun suddenly became very hot, so hot that it melted away the belated darkness.

Sikong Xuan thought about it and realized that he had really failed.

He had actually received a girl's confession 1,123 times. During those 1,123 times, he only focused on cultivation, but his cultivation was in vain. He failed to become invincible and did not protect the Red Forest Gang.

But he also protected a young girl, and thinking about it, it was worth it.

Wandering souls...

I've finally learned to take root in love.

"I've let you confess your feelings so many times, this is the last time, I think..."

So he said, "Su Fengqing, I like... no!"

"I love you."

------------------

High above the sky, Su Fengqing's soul knelt there, nearly collapsing with grief.

The green demon, devoid of humanity, instead sneered.

"This is the price of rejecting me."

She stretched out her hand, and a green light enveloped Su Fengqing.

As if she had thought of something, Ye Buxin suddenly laughed.

"Feelings are indeed a very useful tool."

------------------

The winds of the Eighth World continue to blow, but that girl who was like the wind is no more.

Along with her, a wandering soul also vanished.

------------------

Time: Number ?

"You have nowhere else to go?"

"Ah."

"Would you like to come with me?"

"Go with you?"

"Hmm! My name is Su Fengqing. I'm not a bad person. I can make lots and lots of desserts. Look at you, you've been wandering for so long, you've never eaten anything good, have you? If you come with me, I'll make lots and lots of desserts for you to eat!"

"it is good."
