The paper-made items are so realistic that orders from all over the world skyrocketed and made peopl

The little wolf has now become an old man.

He raised his eyes and seemed to see Lin Yin, and a glimmer of light appeared in his turbid eyes.

(Back in time, they are no longer alive in reality.)

"I've been waiting for you for a long time." The old man's voice was old, "You must have been sent by my elder sister to find me."

Lin Yin nodded.

A hint of joy flashed across the old man's eyes, but it quickly disappeared as if he had thought of something.

"Is Sister okay?"

"Well, she's been looking for you for years."

"Sister, I can't go back." The old man lowered his head and muttered, looking self-blaming.

He hasn't been back to see his sister for so many years...

Is it that he doesn't want to go back?

He wanted to, but he couldn't go back.

His inner elixir was gone, and he had no face to see his people, and he could not abandon his beloved.

If he went back, his tribe would definitely keep him. He couldn't let Yueya live alone outside. He had promised her to protect her.

He had known since childhood that humans and demons had different paths, and his tribe had repeatedly instilled this rule in him. However, he still gave his inner elixir to an ordinary human without hesitation, and decided to stay with her for the rest of his life.

Does he regret it?

No, he doesn't regret it.

If he could do it again, he would still make the same choice.

"I no longer have my inner elixir, and I'm no different from an ordinary person, except that my lifespan is a few years longer than a human's... Girl, please tell me that I want to stay with Yueya until the last moment of my life."

After that, the old man took out a wooden box and opened it, which contained the wolf hair from his past.

"This is a souvenir for my sister. It contains the aura and memories of my past cultivation... I hope I can still be her relative in the next life."

Lin Yin opened her mouth, wanting to say something but ultimately remained silent.

He must not have an afterlife.

According to the system, if a demon loses its inner elixir, it will be no different from an ordinary person, but it is not a real human being after all and cannot enter the underworld to reincarnate.

If he simply lost his inner elixir, then if he maintained his original form, took good care of himself, and continued to practice in a place with abundant spiritual energy, he would eventually form his inner elixir again.

He obviously gave up this opportunity.

However, Lin Yin thought again, perhaps heaven would give him the opportunity to reincarnate?

The laws of nature, chance, and the universe of three thousand worlds—even gods cannot penetrate the secrets of the universe. There are universes beyond the universe, and perhaps there are laws beyond the laws of nature, too. Life and death are endless, and the cycle repeats itself. Perhaps the ultimate evolution of the universe is a process of experiencing evolution.

Who can explain the mystery behind this?

She is just an ordinary person, so naturally she cannot draw conclusions.

Lin Yin took the box from the old man and glanced at the old woman beside him. Her breathing was steady and her face was peaceful. Through her face, she seemed to see the girl with a clean and warm smile. She must have lived a happy life.

"She doesn't have much time left, and I'm also at the end of my strength. After she passes away and I take care of her funeral, my time will be up too." The old man looked at his wife who had been with him all his life, with satisfaction in his eyes.

Lin Yin felt that any words were inadequate. She wasn't one of them, nor was she a demon. She couldn't freely comment or offer any advice. This scene was just a flashback, unable to change any established facts. She could only stare at him in silence.

"Don't look at me like that. I'm very happy." The old man smiled slightly, then sighed, "Our clan is the most loyal. We stay together for life. Once we set our eyes on someone, we will never change."

"The only person I feel sorry for is my elder sister. I haven't been back to see her in all these years."

Lin Yin was silent for a moment, but finally couldn't help but speak to comfort her: "If she knew your situation, she would definitely not blame you."

As the old man smiled, a tear flowed from his turbid eyes and flowed down his wrinkled cheek.

"Sister, we can only see each other in the next life."

Although he knew in his heart that there was no afterlife, he still hoped so.

If there is an afterlife, he will spend the next life with his elder sister and will not go anywhere else.

His elder sister guarded the demon world for him, so it would be his turn to guard the demon world in the next life.

As for this life, let him be completely willful for once, stay with his beloved, and fulfill the promise of spending their lives together.

"A good marriage has been decided, and we will be together till old age. Even if life is but a play and a hundred years pass like dew, our hearts should be as firm as a rock and never change."

"..."

----

A white light flashed, and the scene in front of him changed rapidly. Lin Yin returned to reality, holding the box in his hand, and stood there in a daze.

She was still immersed in the shock brought by the old man's last words: A demon could be so affectionate...

She used to not believe in love. Although she liked looking at handsome men and beautiful women, she didn't believe in love deep down. The original owner was the same. But at this moment, she finally believed in other people's love.

She took two deep breaths and adjusted her mood.

For the next two days, Lin Yin did not go out and worked on orders in the shop.

Fortunately, now with the help of Zhang Xin and Zhang Qiaoyun, her aunt and niece, she felt much more relaxed. At midnight, she only needed to take the items to the mother and daughter who were guarding the store in the ghost world and she could come back immediately.

Although she hadn't been in the ghost world for long these past two days, the mother and daughter had anxiously told her that the Qin Mansion's handyman shop across the street was doing brisk business and that their orders had dropped by half. Both mother and daughter looked worried, but Lin Yin wasn't worried at all. She smiled and reassured them that everything was fine.

Lin Yin is really not in a hurry, she is not pretending. She already has eight million in cash assets deposited in the bank. Why should she be in a hurry?

Opening a store in each of these places is just for upgrading points, and making money is just a side benefit.

Not to mention that she has earned eight million in just two months. Even if she can't make any more money in the future, eight million is enough for her to live out her retirement in this small county without worries about food and clothing.

The mother and daughter were unaware of the situation and only felt that their boss was truly open-minded, and their admiration for Lin Yin grew even greater.

As for the apocalypse, Lin Yin no longer had to go there every day. Supplies for the apocalypse were now provided by the state, and the quantities provided each time were enormous. This was far more efficient than her having to go back and forth to stock up. She no longer had to go from one pharmacy to another to buy restricted medicines...

Lin Yin only needs to pay attention to whether there are any new requests on the golden scale in the space.

Lin Yin spent two days making a paper-cut wolf figure. She had originally wanted to make it in the shape of a human, but she felt the Demon King would prefer his original form.

At the appointed time, the system told Lin Yin that the Demon King was waiting for her in the demon world.

Lin Yin immediately had a bracelet on her hand, corresponding to the demon world plane.

Lin Yin was stunned. Did the Demon King agree in advance to let her enter the demon world?

With curiosity in his heart, Lin Yin stepped into the demon world.
