After jumping down, Lu Jinan was suspended in the air. The wind around him was like a devil whispering in his ear, and serpentine patterns were surrounded by golden light beside him. A series of images appeared in front of his eyes, and fleeting shadows flashed by before his eyes.

He looked at the pictures and slowly stretched out his hand, wanting to touch them. The moment his fingers touched them, the pictures fell apart.

Akabane grabbed the wrist of the person in front of him, only to see the person turning around, his deep blue eyes looking like they were covered by a collapsed snow mountain.

He whispered, "Lu Jinan."

Lu Jinan raised his head slowly, his eyes moving to the face above him, "You."

"Why kill them..."

Akabane felt the wrist in his hand struggling, and the pair of eyes filled with white mist were questioning him.

He seemed to be feeling more and more emotional. He looked at the person in front of him, feeling a little nervous and at a loss.

"You...remembered something, didn't you?"

Lu Jinan stood there motionless, his eyes fixed on the expressionless face before him. He said in a deep voice, "If you asked me to come back just to see that ending again," he said, pulling him down by the neck. Their eyes met, "Chiyu, I'm different from him. If I were to perish, I want you to die with me."

"I won't, sorry." He pursed his lips and finally said apologetically.

Lu Jinan softened his tone, speaking slowly and steadily, "You must have had your reasons back then, but are you willing to speak them out? I believe that both Yun Yi and I would be willing to help you resolve the problem, rather than using killing to cover up the sorrow of the past."

The hand behind his neck had already been withdrawn, but his bent back remained frozen.

Lu Jinan looked at him, his eyes sweeping across his face. Besides seeing his national hatred and family feud, he also saw Yun Yi's bold love and hatred for her master, a love-hate entanglement that was unique to him.

I originally thought that this bitter love-hate relationship was because Chiyu liked Yunyi.

It turned out to be just his wishful thinking, and he was entangled in his own trap.

He considered himself emotionally indifferent, and seeing this, he thought he wouldn't understand. It was ridiculous. He touched his heart and said after a long while, "Have you let it go?"

Akabane looked up in a daze.

"Yun Yi told me that he has let it go. He wanted me to ask you, have you let it go?"

Behind him was the vast world. Akabane looked at the figure in front of him, not knowing whether he really saw the little disciple from that year.

"I……"

"Let's go out first."

Akabane opened his mouth and watched the person in front of him walk out of the barrier gate first.

He looked up at the endless abyss above and saw the flash of red light.

He stepped into the gate of rebirth.

Did he let it go?

Maybe he hasn't let it go, otherwise why would he have been looking for him for tens of thousands of years.

The cold moon is still in the night, leaking out bright silver light.

"Did you ever like him?"

Fortunately, it was night time in the human world, otherwise seeing a winged fox rolling on the hillside would have caused chaos.

The two of them sat halfway up the hill, watching the little red deer rolling around in the grass. Lu Jinan suddenly turned his head and asked him.

Even though he was dressed in black and blended into the night, Lu Jinan had to admit that he had a good appearance. If he were to describe this man, he would be like a solitary crane on a lonely mountain, with a stern and solitary temperament.

Akabane lowered his eyes, "What do you mean by love? Did he ask you that?"

Lu Jinan seemed to be surprised by his answer, "Do you believe me?"

"You believe that he and I have established a connection, rather than thinking that we are the same person." His tone couldn't help but be a little excited.

"I believe you, because... you are different from him." Bai Yuyan hid in the shadows, but felt the burning gaze beside her.

Akabane turned his face away and coughed. "I understand that after reincarnation, one might develop multiple souls due to memory or other unforeseen circumstances."

"Back then, I begged Bai Yue to nurture your remaining soul. Although I don't know why he chose to perish, he must have taken you down from his myriad worlds and imbued your spirit with his aura. After that, my soul-chasing technique could no longer find you."

Lu Jinan was stunned, and the white shadow in his memory seemed to surface.

It turns out that the person in the dream was that person.

"Why do I say I can tell you apart from him? Because he never looks at me like this."

Lu Jinan glanced at him, then suddenly looked up at the moon, leaned back, and lay on the lawn, unable to help but curl up the corners of his mouth.

So childish.

He couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Akabane looked at the person curled up and shivering beside him, feeling a little confused.

Lu Jinan turned over and looked up at him from his side, his eyes shining brightly with the moonlight.

He smiled, but his eyes seemed helpless. "Because he likes you, but I don't like you."

He seemed to really feel pity for Yun Yi. This person, oh no, he is not a god, he just can't tell what he likes.

There might be a house at the foot of the mountain. The few plain lanterns standing in the courtyard were pacing anxiously behind Akabane.

After seeing this, Lu Jinan sat up and asked, "Did you hear any sound?"

The faint shouting hurriedly entered Lu Jinan's ears. He stood up and said, "I heard there was a monster or something. Let's go check it out."

He hadn't yet digested what he had just said. He stared at his back with mixed emotions, pursed his lips, and finally pointed at the flying Zhu Nu and said, "It seems to look more like a monster."

Lu Jinan looked in the direction of Chiyu at the red deer flying beside him and patted its head.

"Can you transform? If not, put it in the storage ring."

Zhu Nu shrank his neck, raised his chin, turned in the air, and turned into a long sword, falling into Lu Jinan's palm.

Lu Jinan nodded with satisfaction and held it in his palm.

Akabane looked at the foot of the mountain where flames were rising into the sky, lowered his brows, and silently followed the young man flying on the sword.

The wind was whistling, accompanied by the faint cry of a baby. Lu Jin'an listened to Er rushing among the grass crowns, the sword energy was sharp, and a momentary light fell obliquely on the corner of his eye.

"Please spare my life, hero. I didn't kill anyone. I just felt sorry for the leopard monster, so I took its cub and ran away."

Lu Jinan took the swaddled baby from the black-nosed dog demon's mouth. Looking at the half-transformed half-beast in the swaddle, Lu Jinan held the swaddle tightly in his arms.

He glanced at Chiyu, and Chiyu walked forward. The dog demon thought that these two people with superb magical powers must be the court's demon exorcists again, and felt a little regretful.

I should have known not to do that leopard demon a favor. Now look what I have done. I have lost my life.

Black Nose kept shaking, but the expected death did not come. Instead, a warm hand covered his head. His spirit was being purified! ?

It suddenly opened its eyes and looked at the handsome man in front of it with joy in its eyes.

"He didn't lie." Chiyu looked at Lu Jinan. Lu Jinan opened his mouth but he didn't have time to remind him.

Akabane was knocked to the ground by the transformed dog demon in front of him, who turned out to be a slim woman.

Lu Jinan turned around, a smile on his lips, "Your Excellency is so lucky."

Akabane's expression became even colder. "Go down."

The long sword at his side hung upside down in the air. The cold air forced the dog demon from its female form to the appearance of a black-nosed puppy. She whimpered and ran behind another beautiful boy, crying. Lu Jinan picked up the dog and said with a smile, "Why are you scaring a girl?"

“If it were another immortal, it wouldn’t just be crying.”

The dog demon stopped crying, curled up towards Lu Jinan, and raised its two paws as if to please him.

Lu Jinan looked at him with a smile, "He told you to change to another immortal, which means this immortal won't do anything to you."

As soon as the dog demon grinned, Lu Jinan continued to smile with narrowed eyes, "Of course, as an immortal, I don't care about meat or vegetables. See this sword on my waist? It's a top-grade red deer, which I just received."

The dog demon almost peed when he heard this. What do you mean by "no meat, no vegetables"? What kind of sword is Zhu Nu?!

She waved her claws frantically and surrendered, "Great Immortal, Great Immortal! This little cub is just born, half immortal, half demon. It's delicious and won't get stuck in your teeth. It has much more spiritual power than a local dog like me. Please eat it. This is my little one's gift to you, old man."

"Half immortal, half demon?" Chiyu looked at the swaddling baby in Lu Jinan's arms, walked forward and reached out to the half-beast's spirit platform.

Feeling the powerful immortal power at the spiritual platform, Chiyu withdrew his hand. Lu Jinan looked at the man's expression, which was not fake.

He looked back at the dog demon and said, "You said earlier that you felt sorry for the leopard demon, so why did you hang her child and run away?"

The dog demon shook himself and stammered as he told the whole story. "Back in that village, it was my habit to steal chickens from one family and sausages from another. Suddenly, a new family moved in and told them that I was the one who stole all the missing things. So, the villagers beat me up and kicked me out."

"I knew immediately that the woman was a leopard spirit. For the safety of the villagers, I went to the demon detention center and reported her anonymously. Then her husband was arrested, and she suddenly had to give birth. The whole village saw her true form revealed, and they all said they wanted to burn her on the spot."

"We are all monsters. I didn't expect it to be so serious. I felt sorry for her, so I promised her to take her child away and hide it, and then take him back after she escaped."

Akabane looked at her with an unclear gaze, "Is it for the safety of the villagers, or is it because he carried a private stick? Is it because he feels pity for her, or is it because he sees that this little leopard has semi-immortal bloodline?"

The dog demon didn't dare look at Chiyu, so he kept begging Lu Jinan, "Great Immortal, look, I'm telling the truth, I didn't hurt anyone, so please let me go."

"You're full of lies." He stood tall and majestic behind her. The dog demon was sweating profusely and then turned into a human form. Lu Jinan loosened his grip and thought that the man wanted to run away. He was about to throw the fairy-catching net in his hand, but found that the man just fell to his knees with a flop.

"Yes, I'm sorry. I just saw how that leopard demon could have an immortal man. I couldn't accept it and was just taking revenge. But taking her baby did help her escape. Great Immortal, please spare me, Great Immortal, please spare me. This time I really didn't lie!"
