Let's walk together for the rest of our lives. If the host says to leave, she will leave.

"If you leave, I will immediately mobilize my spiritual power to stop you."

It is despicable to use myself as a threat, but this seems to be the only way to stop Jiang Shuning at the moment.

"You don't even know those people, why do you want to save them? Is it because you are a cultivator?" Jiang Shuning asked her.

"Because of you." Gu Ling said without hesitation, "Because you don't want to kill anyone, so they can't die."

In fact, even if all the people in this world died, what would it matter? Gu Ling didn't care at all.

She didn't care about those lives or those deaths.

Jiang Shuning didn't want to kill anyone, but Gu Ling didn't want him to suffer.

Gu Ling: "Do you know why I came back? Because you are here."

Strangely enough, the stabbing pain in his head seemed to have eased. Even Jiang Shuning himself couldn't tell whether he was the usual Jiang Shuning or the ruthless Jiang Shuning.

A little paleness began to appear in the sky. The sun had not yet risen, but the night had already begun to fade away.

Jiang Shuning said: "Gu Ling, I would want to kill someone."

"Then kill."

"Killing someone for such a small matter?"

"I'll stop you."

"What if I'm not happy?"

"Will you be unhappy if I stop you?"

No, because it's her.

Jiang Shuning was very happy that Gu Ling could accept himself, a murderer, but he himself could not accept it.

On countless nights, he was awakened by nightmares countless times. People's cries and the splattering of blood were stimulants when he was killing, and were the pain and guilt when he woke up from his dreams at midnight.

He smiled, but inexplicable tears rolled out of his eyes.

"Gu Ling, please end my sinful life. I know you can do it."

Different from the previous playing hard to get strategy, this time, Jiang Shuning was serious.

Gu Ling's hands trembled: "Aning?"

"Although the contract is gone, I hope you will abide by it. I rescued your body, and you should also meet my third request."

Jiang Shuning smiled so gently, and for a moment Gu Ling saw his younger self.

Standing like a delicate orchid and jade tree, smiling like the bright moon in your arms.

That was a clean young boy, not a sinful demon lord.

Jiang Shuning: "A Ling, everyone has their own choices, right?"

Gu Ling recalled a very distant memory.

The ninth heaven, where she was born.

Flowers died in the desolate fields, and their cries of despair resounded through the sky.

At this time, the upper nine heavens are filled with despair, decay, and death.

There is no new birth here.

The man with a straight posture and a handsome face stood with his hands behind his back. Gu Ling looked at him and calmly stated a fact: "You will die."

It was as if the person who was about to die was not the man who was like a teacher and a father to her, but a stranger she met by chance.

There was a carefree and unrestrained look between the man's eyebrows. The wind blew his dark green robe. He seemed like a gust of wind, impossible to catch or find, and about to dissipate.

The man looked at Gu Ling. His eyes were calm and he looked clear-headed. He seemed to be smiling, but also seemed not to be.

"A Ling, I have never lived."

Gu Ling lowered his eyes, as if he understood something.

Maybe that person just made a choice.

A choice that no one else can understand, only he himself understands.

The sun jumped out of the horizon, the remaining stars were no longer clear, roosters crowed, and the village in the distance began to wake up.

Two people in wedding dresses stood facing each other, close yet seemingly worlds apart.

"Zhou Paopi, do me a favor."

The system understood and helped Gu Ling knock Jiang Shuning unconscious. She hugged Jiang Shuning and looked at the young man's wet eyelashes.

"I'm sorry I didn't protect you."

……

"Hey, hey, hey, this is too much. You also know that this is a world of immortal cultivation. The price to pay for turning back time is too high."

Meng Wenqing really wanted to go on strike. The two guys in front of him were so irritating.

Isn't it just to study the structure of the system? There will be no side effects, but these two made her wait here for thousands of years, and they wanted to turn back time as soon as they met.

Nonsence!

The system put its hands on its hips and said, "I don't want any of the benefits you give me. I just want you to move the timeline of this world back a little bit."

She looked like she had made a fortune.

Meng Wenqing's mouth twitched: "That's all?"

If it were that simple, I wouldn't have come to her for help.

Gu Ling: "You didn't pay for it anyway, so why are you so upset?"

Meng Wenqing coughed lightly and subconsciously looked up at the sky.

Not everyone has the ability to travel through the world. Meng Wenqing is just a newly promoted god, but he can travel through the world to find Gu Ling, and his target is directly the system. It is obvious that he has a backer behind him.

The condition she had negotiated with the system before was to give Gu Ling a pass. With the pass, they would no longer be illegal residents and could enter the world openly. The laws of the small world would also give them a certain degree of convenience.

As well as a certain amount of heavenly luck and energy.

There is obviously only one person who can make these promises.

That is the Way of Heaven in the Ninth Heaven, which is above all things, without heart or emotion, and is the force of rules of absolute justice, existing for the smooth operation of the world.

Turning back time is certainly difficult, but for the Heavenly Dao in the Ninth Heaven, it is just a matter of waving hands.

--Can.

A word suddenly appeared in the air and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

The system will leave Gu Ling to assist Meng Wenqing and come back when this world ends.

Meng Wenqing received the instruction and asked, "Which time point do you want to return to?"

……

The hill is not high, but for a seven-year-old kid it can be called a mountain.

Although Jiang Shuning is just a seven-year-old kid, he also needs private space, and this small hill is his private territory.

His home was on the south side of the hill. Whenever he wanted to be alone, he would climb over the hill and hide on the north side.

But now a guy named Gu Ling appeared in the north, whom he both hated and liked.

Not long ago, a big bad guy came to our house, and my parents couldn't beat him. Fortunately, Gu Ling appeared in time and killed the bad guy. He was as grateful to her as my parents.

But no one knew what she said to her parents. Jiang Shuning was thrown into the house built by Gu Ling on the north side of the hillside and experienced inhuman pain.

It was abominable that his talent had declined and his parents were actually thanking her.

Disgusting guy!

Gu Ling was building a fence for the house. She lowered her eyes and worked seriously, not even glancing at the little kid not far away.

The system held a bunch of dandelions in its hand and blew on them, and the white fluff flew away.

He said leisurely: "The guy at the door has been staring at you for a month, why don't you invite him in and have a seat?"

"I think he wants to shove me into the ground and not even smile at me. Tsk, we are tired of each other, so forget it."

The system was a little worried, so he followed Gu Ling here anyway. Seeing that everything was going well, he also planned to leave.

"Gu Shitou, I'm leaving. Don't miss me."

"Okay, I don't miss you."

The system choked and rolled its eyes. When it left, it heard Gu Ling say, "Have a good trip."

Hum, of course he will have a smooth journey.

After Gu Ling killed the murderer who killed Jiang Shuning's parents, he took the initiative to state his purpose and said that he could help Jiang Shuning get rid of his furnace physique. Naturally, the couple was overjoyed and took Jiang Shuning to Gu Ling's residence.

Abolishing the furnace-cauldron physique is equivalent to reshaping the muscles and bones. The pain is self-evident. Of course, the little guy hates her very much.

Moreover, a person's physique is like flesh, blood, bones, internal organs, and if one loses his original physique, he will also lose his life.

With the help of Meng Wenqing, Gu Ling divided the remaining lifespan of this body into two and shared them with Jiang Shuning. From then on, there was no longer any furnace physique, but just an ordinary cultivator with the same lifespan as her.
