In the eyes is a lush forest, and the sound of hunting horses is faintly heard in the distance.

Liu Yuan looked around and realized that this was just an illusion.

Fantasy?

He glanced at the sapphire in his hand, his eyes darkened.

A moment ago, he was still meditating in the cave of the underworld, when Ling Xiaoyu, who was placed aside, suddenly glowed brightly, he just reached out to touch it, and was caught off guard and dragged in.

He remembered Shuli's smiling eyes when she took off the sapphire and handed it to him.

What the hell is that guy up to?

Liu Yuan stood there and waited for a while, when he heard the sound of people getting closer, he walked into the forest.After walking for about a cup of tea, there was a slight sound of fallen leaves rubbing against the soles of his boots behind him, and he suddenly turned his head.

The beauty with black hair and black clothes was startled by him, subconsciously wanted to avoid it, but stopped when she saw him.

It's Shuli.

It's just that he looks a little out of the situation at the moment.

"Big... man?" Shuli tilted her head with a puzzled expression.

Liuyuan didn't know what Shuli was thinking for a while, so he didn't speak, but just stood quietly, letting him talk to himself.

"What's going on? Could it be that he appeared here a year ago? But wasn't he in retreat at that time?... Or was it because I thought of him when weaving the dream, and turned out to be him in the dream?"

Hearing this, Liu Yuan frowned slightly, he guessed at the beginning that this was a dream created by Shuli, but he didn't guess that he didn't know that Ling Xiaoyu also pulled Liu Yuan into this dream.

Shuli thought about it for a while, and became more and more sure that it was the latter guess, so when she looked at Liu Yuan again, her eyes lit up, "Since it's just a dream..."

Shuli stepped forward quickly, and threw herself into Liu Yuan's arms.

It's been a long time since no one has done such a thing to Liu Yuan, his black eyes widened for a moment, he was in a daze, and forgot to push Shuli away for a moment.

Shuli put her hands around Liu Yuan's waist, raised her face in his arms, "Liu Yuan!" he called him, with a gentle smile, the small mole under the corner of his eyes was like a peach blossom, and his voice was soft and sweet, full of joy He Huanxi, "It's clear that I just saw you not long ago, and just now I started to want to see you again immediately."

Liu Yuan took a step back abruptly.

"Huh? Did it scare you?" Shuli smiled embarrassedly, hugging him and refused to let go, still very happy, "But I really like you."

Liu Yuan's expression finally changed.

Shuli was pushed away, he staggered a few steps, and when he raised his eyes, Liu Yuan took out Ling Xiaoyu, and said in a cold and stiff voice, "It was your jade that brought me here."

Shuli was a little dazed, and after realizing it, her face turned pale for a moment, "You are..." He suddenly became at a loss, "I, I just... I don't know..."

Liu Yuan interrupted his incoherent explanation, "I will act as if nothing happened." After a pause, "But you'd better explain why I appear here."

The mood of the person in front of him fell instantly, he glanced at the sapphire in Liu Yuan's hand, and pursed his lips, "There is something wrong with Jiang Yan, I can only enter his dream myself... Casting spells is more difficult, To rely on Ling Xiaoyu, maybe...you were pulled in after meeting Ling Xiaoyu."

"How to get out?"

"...Can't go out. I have established a resonance with Jiang Yan's body. If I fail to get Mengzhu out, he will die."

"..."

Raising his eyes to meet Shang Liuyuan's deep eyes, the person who was joyful just now had a sad look on his face, and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry... for pulling you in. It won't be long, really."

For a moment, Liu Yuan wanted to know why he always smiled when facing him, but his eyes often became sad.

Although he is cold-hearted, he also knows that for a person like Shuli, there should be no one who would not be willing to give his heart to him.

Liu Yuan was silent for a while, then said lightly: "Let's go."

"?"

"Go to Jiang Yan."

"!" The beauty's thick and colorful eyebrows became vivid again, and she followed behind Liu Yuan.

……

On the way, Shuli explained the situation of Bian Jiangyan to Liu Yuan in detail, and the two quickly found Ninghou Shizi who was besieged by wolves.

"The nightmare that trapped him started from here."

Shuli and Liuyuan stood in mid-air with their bodies hidden. They saw the girl in red pick up Jiang Yan's left sword and gallop into the forest, as if they were going to an invitation destined to end tragically.

"In fact, this place should be the biggest nightmare in his heart." Shuli said softly, "Although Jiang Yan never admitted it, when he saw Zhong Lixiao for the first time, his heart was indeed moved."

That is the purest heartbeat that has nothing to do with past and present lives.

Zhong Li smiled and threw the wolf corpse away with a wave of his gun, and laughed loudly: "You are Jiang Yan?"

"My lord, do you know what is heartbeat?" Shuli's eyes curved into a smile, "Heartbeat is the moment when I saw that person, my heart suddenly moved, and it seemed to be suddenly empty. From then on, I think about it all the time. To see him."

Liu Yuan lowered his head, unable to distinguish the emotion in his eyes.

The wolf's head jumped up, and Zhong Lixiao was pressed against the tree trunk by Jiang Yan, watching the wolf's teeth digging into Jiang Yan's back shoulder with wide eyes.

"There's nothing to see. My lord, let's go to the back."

Shuli snapped her fingers, and the surrounding scenery twisted and changed, instantly changing from a deep forest hunting ground to a lofty pavilion.

After Jiang Yan came back from the hunting ground, he had been recuperating in Ninghou Mansion. Zhong Lixiao came to visit him, but was stopped outside Jiang Yan's residence.

The beautiful woman in white dress slightly raised her chin to look at her, with an undisguised malice on her face that was contrary to the gentle and courteous temperament in the rumors, and said to her: "Don't think I don't know what you think about him. He doesn't will put you in his eyes."

Zhong Lixiao was born in Jiangmen, grew up in the borderlands since childhood, and has a straightforward and bright personality.If it were in the past, Meng Qingyi's words would have made her feel very angry and humiliated, but at this moment, she did not argue with Meng Qingyi, but turned her over with clever strength and was admitted to the hospital.

She thought to herself that what the man said was actually true.

Before entering the Ninghou Mansion, the two men in black appeared in front of her out of thin air, their faces were so shaking that it took her a while to remember to be afraid.The one who kept smiling said that they came to help her achieve her wish.She didn't believe it at first, so he told her what would happen outside Jiang Yan's courtyard.

Just now, everything he said came true, even what Meng Qingyi said was guessed word for word.

"Do you still want to confess?"

Zhong Li smiled and thought for a while, "Yes. No matter what, I want him to know."

Jiang Yan really rejected her, and his attitude changed suddenly, almost stern.

"Cry." Shuli whispered in Zhonglixiao's ear.

Zhong Lixiao originally refused to cry in front of Jiang Yan, she had never cried much in her life.However, after listening to Shuli's words, her nose turned sore, she looked at Jiang Yan, and shed tears in a daze.

Jiang Yan panicked at that moment.

"In order to prevent the dream from collapsing, it's better for me to avoid provoking Jiang Yan, and I can only spend time on Zhong Lixiao." Following Zhong Lixiao out of the Ninghou Mansion, Shuli said slowly, "I can't tell Jiang Yan directly. Yan, Zhong Lixiao is the girl he is looking for. If the progress is too fast, it will easily remind him of the scene of discovering the truth in reality, so it needs to be done step by step."

Liu Yuan remained silent as usual.However, whether he was listening or not, Shuli still explained seriously.

"What I want to do is to make Jiang Yan fall in love with Zhong Lixiao when she doesn't know that she is the reincarnation of Meng Qingyi, and then let him 'accidentally' learn about the birthmark on Zhong Lixiao's body."

Liu Yuan's figure suddenly flickered.

"What’s wrong with you?!"

Shuli subconsciously wanted to help him, but was avoided.Liu Yuan's face was as white as a piece of paper, but his lips were getting redder. He lowered his head and squeezed out a few words between his teeth: "I...need a room..."

……

Boxes and cabinets were overturned inside the house, and it was a mess, with black mist-like ghosts running around.Liu Yuan sat cross-legged on the ground, with his eyes closed tightly, blood-colored meridians spreading from his neck to his face bit by bit.

Huge power collided recklessly in his body, limbs and bones flowed like fiery magma, and the intense pain seemed to burn his body and soul into ashes.

——Just like those 49 years in the soul refining pool.

Ordinary people, if their obsessions are not lost, do not enter reincarnation, and devote themselves to the soul refining pool of the underworld, there is a one in a million possibility of successfully refining their souls and becoming the ghost king in charge of the underworld.

For thousands of years, countless mortal souls have jumped into the soul refining pool, and the screams in the soul refining pool are shaking the sky all the year round, but no one can come out.

No one can endure the endless karmic fire in the soul refining pool. After being crushed to ashes, they reshape their souls and are burned to ashes again.

Day after day, year after year.

Relying on the strong unwillingness and hatred in his heart, he persevered. Countless times he thought that his soul was going to disappear, and he reminded himself countless times to go out, he must go out, and let those people pay the due price.

Forty-nine years, eighteen thousand eight hundred and eighty-five days and nights.

He finally climbed out of the soul refining pool.

One day of every month after that, the ghost energy in his body would dissipate uncontrollably, making him fully experience the feeling of being crushed and ashes again.

It is also to make him not forget.

Shuli's anxious voice came from outside the door: "My lord! Are you okay, my lord?"

"Get out!" Liu Yuan opened his eyes suddenly, and shouted sharply, but the ending sound changed in the sharp pain, like a trembling panting.

Shuli could hear clearly.

As soon as Shuli touched the roof of the house, the forbidden runes that emerged bounced him away fiercely. He was at a loss for a moment, and suddenly thought of his original body, Ling Xiaoyu.

The next moment, Ling Xiaoyu, who was placed in the girdle by Liu Yuan, shot out a stream of light, and Shuli fell to the ground.

"You're courting death—" Liu Yuan panted hard, killing intent appeared in his red eyes, but his voice stopped abruptly.

Shuli knelt down and hugged him tightly.

His voice trembled, as if he was crying, sharing the pain with him, "It's okay...it'll be fine soon, bear with it..."

He rested his chin on Liu Yuan's shoulder, closed his long eyelashes, their black clothes were intertwined, their black hair was winding down like flowing water, and the blue spiritual energy gushing out of his body was churning, continuously entering the the opponent's body.

Liu Yuan was stunned.

Shuli's face gradually turned pale, and at the same time, the restlessness in Liu Yuan's body was suppressed, and the scattered ghost energy gathered again, and the bloody meridians on his face gradually faded until they disappeared.

The straight back seemed to have finally lost its strength, Shuli let out a breath, and slowly opened her eyes.

"It's okay." Shuli whispered in Liu Yuan's ear, and fell into his arms.

Liu Yuan reached out to catch Shuli, his eyes were still blank and shocked, he moved his lips, but he didn't say anything.

"It doesn't hurt," Shuli said with a faint smile, "I said it will be soon."

"Why do you..."

"Because I don't want to make you hurt." He said softly, "It's just a little spiritual energy, it's nothing."

"..."

"I can't use mana for the time being, and when I need to jump nodes and change my body shape later, I will rely on you, my lord."

After a moment of silence, Liu Yuan whispered, "Okay."
