Bound to Mary Sue, I am against involution in the world of immortal cultivation

As soon as she finished speaking, a layer of black vines appeared around Fan Ning, binding her in place as if as a warning.

It was just a restraint. Apart from that, even the sharp thorns of the vines were well restrained, and there was no intention to hurt her at all.

But Ling You who was beside him did not have such good luck.

Not only was he locked up by layers of vines, but his entire body was shaking as if he was being suppressed by something, his eyes full of struggle.

This state lasted less than three minutes.

To the surprise of the Demon Lord, Ling You's body was suppressed by the vines, and he finally lost his breath and fell down softly.

"The person is not dead," the Demon Lord looked at Fan Ning, whose expression did not change much. Although he felt strange that things were going too smoothly, his confidence in control and the module overcame that abnormality.

"I will take him away, and you, just enjoy this gift of snow."

"..."

All sounds are silent.

Fan Ning lowered his eyes. He didn't know how much time had passed, so long that the Demon Lord had already left. Only then did the smiling young man standing beside him carefully ask, "Your Highness Fan Ning...are you okay?"

After saying this, I realized that I was just talking about something that was completely irrelevant.

Everything was fine, but the beloved partner was taken away directly - although he didn't die, judging by the current situation, it seemed that he wouldn't live long.

Plus the Demon Lord's final, pointed "cruel words"...

The Smiling Young Master paused for a moment, unable to find a word to comfort her.

"Hmm?" Fan Ning raised her head and blinked her beautiful eyes, without sadness or tears. "Why am I not okay?"

The Smiling Young Master was stunned by the expressionless face. He was stunned for a moment, but still asked cautiously: "Young Master Ling You..."

"He's fine," Fan Ning said, thinking he was being kind. "You don't have to worry about him at all."

The Smiling Young Master looked even more bewildered.

Fan Ning stopped talking, but her eyes clearly showed "not worried at all", which was so straightforward that it made people confused.

Smiling Young Master: “…”

Smiling Young Master: "...I understand."

He retreated with the people in the cage and stood in the snow, not even knowing what he understood.

Fan Ning soon met Jiang Xue who had arrived.

The famous Demon General climbed onto the window and walked in. After taking a look at the mess in the room, he realized that he was still a step too late. He asked without hope, "Where is Ling You?"

"He fell into a coma and his body was taken away by the Demon Lord."

I don’t know if there are any fairy tales in the demon world that fit the situation... falling into a coma or something, and all you need to have an ending is a kiss of true love.

"That's troublesome," the worst result had already happened. Jiang Xue was considerate and didn't ask any more questions to irritate Fan Ning. Instead, she gave her the address of her house and asked her to live there for a while.

"You probably have some idea of ​​what this snow is like."

The rest of the words couldn't be said at this time. He paused, lowered his voice and said, "...The snow this time is more unusual than in the past. It came more than two months early."

These two months are neither long nor short, but at this time... it is particularly sensitive and it is hard not to associate it with Fan Ning's actions.

"I just can't wait," Fan Ning said with a faint smile, "Grasshoppers in autumn always jump around extra fast."

But death also happened extremely quickly.

After bidding farewell to Jiangxue, who was full of thoughts, Fanning stood alone in front of the courtyard and raised his hand to gather a cluster of snowflakes.

"It's a little cold," she said.

After a gust of wind, a faint figure regrouped behind her.

"Come in," Ling You leaned against her. Without the breath of his body, just his proximity brought a hint of chill.

He lowered his eyes and looked at Fan Ning who was standing under the tree. He did not ask her why he appeared there in such a form. Just as when he saw that Fan Ning did not resist, he stopped struggling.

Fan Ning is always trustworthy, no matter when.

"I'm waiting for you," Fan Ning turned his head, his eyes moving slightly, and made a not-so-funny joke, "If there are any mistakes... I will be worried too."

Ling You felt a little helpless, but after careful consideration, he hugged the person in front of him.

The touch of the soul body is very strange, like a cool mist, but it can be touched by people.

"Living souls and dead souls are indeed quite different," Fan Ning commented. "Although this was my first time doing this, it's clear that I was successful."

Ling You laughed: "...Of course you will succeed."

He leaned against her, and after losing his body, the mouth that never said anything nice or true seemed to soften.

"Let's go in first," Ling You said, "Even if the things created by the Demon Lord are somewhat real, they are not auspicious."

It should even be said that it is unlucky.

Fan Ning returned to the house, supporting his chin with one hand, his eyes still fixed on the snow, as if he was thinking seriously.

But snow is snow, and there is nothing wrong with it, except that it is really unusual.

"Have you achieved the result you wanted?"

Spending a fortune to attract attention—perhaps even the Demon Lord's reaction was within her expectations.

"Maybe," Fan Ning said softly, holding a bowl of hot tea and watching the tea leaves floating beneath the water. "This is just the beginning."

She remembered the pair of eyes she had seen before, and the corners of her lips slowly straightened, revealing a hint of sharpness.

-

Jiangxue, who finally knew the whole story, also stood by the window.

Behind him, a man with a familiar face raised his head, revealing a handsome and smiling face.

"...I haven't congratulated you yet, you met him."

The Smiling Young Master shuddered, his eyes drooping again. "He no longer remembers me, but that might not be a bad thing."

It was on such a snowy day that his younger brother got separated from him.

Now they meet again on such a snowy day... But both his brother, who was forced to change his appearance, and he himself are no longer the same as before.

It’s good to lose those memories...

If he always kept this in mind, even his naive younger brother would feel sad about such a future.

After all - if Fan Ning hadn't taken action, he might have had to wait for many days before he could find a way to bring his brother back.

"That's the property of the Second Demon General. I'm really sorry for that." Jiang Xue took out a bottle of pills from her sleeve and handed it to him. Without showing any vulnerability on her face, she simply said, "This thing might be of some use to his mind. If you've made up your mind, give it to him."

The Smiling Young Man did not refuse. He looked intently at the person he followed, and gradually, a genuine smile appeared on his face.

"I know, it's a blessing to be able to follow you."
