Please Spare My Life, Disciple of the Demon Lord

Jiang Tingwan was surprised, "You know?"

Sui Jiu: "You want to ask Meng Ziyuan if he has forgotten everything about the Awakening Realm? And why is this happening, right?"

Jiang Tingwan clapped his hands, "Smart!"

Sui Jiu rolled his eyes, "I can hear everything, okay?"

Jiang Tingwan pursed his lips awkwardly and asked her with a smile, "Why is this happening?"

Suijiu’s words have already answered the first question, so the focus now lies on the second question.

"Because you are unexpected visitors, people who shouldn't be there. Most people who accidentally fall into another world cannot retain their memories."

"Then what about Mu Yunzhong and me?" Jiang Tingwan's expression was not curiosity, but confirmation of the answer to his guess step by step.

"You can remember it because that experience became a part of the process that influenced Mu Yunzhong, so your memory was preserved."

Sui Jiu answered Jiang Tingwan's question readily, but Jiang Tingwan's heart was beating violently.

"what about me?"

Jiang Tingwan's three simple words made Sui Jiu unable to understand what she was asking.

"You said that I am not from this world. After I complete my mission and leave here, will my memory still be preserved?"

This time, Suijiu understood but remained silent.

"I will forget this world too, right?" Jiang Tingwan's voice dropped. She was ready to leave, but not ready to forget.

Seeing Jiang Tingwan in a low mood, Sui Jiu suddenly felt a little reluctant, "Well, not necessarily."

Jiang Tingwan looked at her, but saw that she was extremely hesitant and wavering, as if she was struggling with whether to say it and how much to say.

"What do you mean?" Jiang Tingwan asked.

"It will become a dream. Many people who fall into another world will only remember part of what happened and regard it as a bizarre dream. For you..."

Suijiu was still hesitating, but after seeing Jiang Tingwan's sad expression, he decided to go for broke.

"For you who have been chosen, authors like you will think that it is a creative process after completing the plot revision. I have said before that you have only partially entered this world with your consciousness, and your main consciousness is still in the original world. For her, you are just completing this story."

"This is why you can change the plot through reasonable language. It's not because of your ability to change the plot, but because the ultimate purpose of modifying the plot is to eliminate accidents and opportunities that affect Mu Yunzhong, so that all developments will avoid the possibility of Mu Yunzhong crossing the border of the world."

"You only need to do this one thing from beginning to end. So whether Wen Bumian is alive or gone, he is your opponent, but not completely your opponent. What you really have to face is whether Mu Yunzhong's ending can be avoided."

"When you complete this mission and leave this world, your sense of reality will be taken away. You will remember Mu Yunzhong and what happened in this world, but you will only regard yourself as a person outside of the story."

It’s fun and accurate. This is the first time that Suijiu feels like a system.

“Is this order?” Jiang Tingwan collapsed on the ground. After experiencing so much, facing these two words, she only felt powerless as if she had fallen into the deep sea and was unable to breathe.

"Yes." Although Sui Jiu looked reluctant, he answered affirmatively.

Jiang Tingwan sat on the ground, leaning against the blooming tree behind her. The heart of this body had already welcomed the light, and the wind was warm, but Jiang Tingwan's heart was cold. She felt that everything around her was extremely quiet.

This ending is somewhat unexpected, but not so unexpected.

"Jiang Tingwan? What's wrong with you?" Sui Jiu came over, a little worried. It was very abnormal for Jiang Tingwan to be silent.

She leaned against the tree and looked at the sunlight in the distance. She was silent for a long time before she said softly, "Suijiu, I'm telling you the truth. I have never wavered in my belief in going home because of Mu Yunzhong. I have even made all preparations."

“Even if this place is great, it can’t compare to the place where I have lived for more than 20 years. There is my past, family, friends, and Mu Yunzhong. He may be the most unique person in my life, but he can’t be everything to me…”

Jiang Tingwan stared into the distance without blinking, "But when you told me that I would forget all this, I suddenly felt a little scared..."

The calm voice was filled with confusion.

"It's not like I've completely forgotten." Jiang Tingwan was feeling sad, but Sui Jiu emphasized seriously, "You can still remember this person and some of the things that happened, isn't that the same?"

Jiang Tingwan closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He couldn't get too close to this fox. "Of course it's different. Memories are memories, and feelings are feelings. What's the point of just remembering people without feelings?"

"Feelings again?" Sui Jiu suddenly said this with disdain, "You've already lost your life once because of feelings. You don't know what's so good about this thing."

"Well... I'm going to argue with you about this. Do you know why people in the Awakening Realm have immortal bodies but find life difficult?"

"What is it?"

"Emotionally, although they have transcended the boundary between life and death, they have lost the most basic emotions. They are not happy because of gain, sad because of loss, and afraid of death. They have nothing to love and nothing to fear. Although they live forever, living has become a meaningless thing."

"Although I don't know how long you have lived, I know that what makes you happy every day is love."

"Nonsense, how could I have that thing?" Sui Jiu pouted and denied.

"You have joy, anger, sorrow, happiness, worry, fear, and so on. When people blame you, you get angry, sad, and even cry. When people praise you, you get happy. When I fail in a mission, you get worried. When I ask questions that I shouldn't ask, you get scared and hesitant. When you mention that adult you mentioned, you get full of admiration. These are all your emotions."

Jiang Tingwan continued, "Or think about it, if I finish the mission and we separate, will you miss me?"

Sui Jiu was stunned by what she said, as if she realized this problem for the first time, something she had never thought about before.

She touched her face and finally said with great doubt, "So, I am sick too?"

Jiang Tingwan smiled at first, then frowned and said, "What's wrong with you? This shows that you are a living person with flesh and blood... Oh no, a living fox."

He patted Suijiu's head again and said with a satisfied smile, "It seems that you still care about me."

Hearing this, Sui Jiu quickly waved away Jiang Tingwan's hand and emphasized: "Emotions are the most confusing thing in the world. It's not an exaggeration to say that they are a virus."

"So what you mean is that you think your admiration for your parents has disturbed your mind? Bewildered by the virus?"

Suijiu immediately retorted, "Of course not! You are the only one in the world..."

Sui Jiu stopped talking here, but Jiang Tingwan looked at her straight, waiting for her answer.

"Are you trying to trick me?" Sui Jiu reacted.

Jiang Tingwan smiled and didn't ask any more questions. "Just give it a try. You'll forget it anyway. There's no harm in knowing it for a short while."

Suijiu's expression was defensive. He sat on the ground with his hands folded, staring at her.

"I'm just kidding. I won't ask anymore. I just want to express that if we don't have these things, it's no different from forgetting..." The look in Jiang Tingwan's eyes was visibly dim.

"We're almost there." The group of four finally saw the hexagonal mirror, but the originally crystal clear mirror was about to become transparent at this moment.

"The passage is about to disappear." Meng Ziyuan warned loudly.

As they were talking, several people quickened their pace at the same time and at the last moment they entered the mirror. The rotating passage began to disappear, and behind them was a vast expanse of white. If they were lost in the secret realm, they could still find the direction, but if they were lost in the passage, they didn't know what would happen.

What surprised them was that other people appeared in the passage, in different directions and positions.

It felt as if all the hexagonal prisms were combined into one at this moment, and the other people who passed through the mirrors were compressed into the same space.

These people's bodies were covered in blood and they looked disheveled, as if they had all experienced a great battle.
