Female lead: No, it's me again??

"Even if you have to walk through this silent world year after year, you must take me with you. I will not regret it... Ayan, wherever you are, that is Zhaozhao's home."

The little girl's scalding tears seemed to possess a magical power, capable of unsettling even the most composed person, who would be calm even if the sky were to fall. He reached out to wipe them away, his tone no longer concealing his sorrow and helplessness.

“I can’t be that selfish, like you heard.”

"Zhaozhao, look at this magnificent palace. There is no other life in it except for me. Do you know why?"

"You said."

Cang Li also had doubts in his heart.

This palace complex is magnificent and splendid, filled with the silent passage of time.

Extraordinary, yet lonely.

The man smiled, a pale smile. "This is my own prison, the price of power. But I don't regret it. I'm willing to endure it to save Zhaozhao."

Cage?

So, the reason she was saved was truly because of coming here...

Cang Li really wanted to say, "Let's run!"

Run as far as possible, escape this world!

But she couldn't bring herself to say it.

Once he leaves this place, will Ayan still have his power? Will he be able to withstand the Star Punishment?

Cangli cannot gamble.

Therefore, she said in a low voice,

"Ayan, let's get married!"

The young man suddenly looked up, his pupils contracting slightly.

"Zhaozhao, are you crazy?!"

Cang Li laughed, her watery peach blossom eyes filled with a reckless madness, "Ayan, there's no reason for you to be the only one to make sacrifices."

"I am Cangli, the Cangli you delivered and raised, the Zhaozhao who belongs only to you. As you said, we are the closest people in each other's eternal lives, and we will always be together!"

"If you can't leave, then I'll stay with you."

"If you don't want to marry me, you can marry me. The things in my space throughout the universe are enough for a dowry!"

"you you....."

A faint blush crept onto the young man's pale face, whether from the force of her bold words or from embarrassment, it was hard to tell. Ultimately, he was intimidated by her audacity and turned his face away.

"Zhaozhao, you've gotten even more shameless after going out for a while."

Cang Li pressed her advantage, moving closer to his face and asking expectantly, "Just tell me, will you marry me or not?"

The space was silent for a long time.

As time went on, Cang Li's heart began to pound with anxiety and a dull ache began to throb.

Should I refuse?

The man finally lowered his eyes, his tone calm, but Cang Li could still hear a tremor in it, "Zhao Zhao, stay with me, will you really not regret it?"

Cang Li said decisively, "No!"

"From the moment I fell in love with you at the age of 135, I knew that I would love you forever, for a very, very long time."

"135?"

The young man suddenly realized, "Zhaozhao, you were just a child back then, you didn't understand..."

The little girl said nonchalantly, "The Purple Phoenix Clan ages by one thousand years. Even if it's another ten thousand years, I'll still be a child. But Ah Yan, love knows no age."

man:"........"

He said irritably,

"Liking someone knows no age, but marriage is."

"Zhaozhao, you're still a child. I won't say I'm binding your future when you don't understand anything, besides..."

The man seemed to recall something, his tone slightly bitter, "You have someone you like, Zhaozhao, don't regret it because of your impulsiveness."

The little girl remained firm in her statement.

"I do not regret!"

“Ayan, I did something very foolish. I sealed away all my past memories and threw them into the human world, just to prove that humans can conquer nature. Even if there is a river of time between us, I will take advantage of time to reach where you are.”

"I love you, I love you, and that will never change, even if I die!"

Mentioning him, Cang Li lowered his head.

"But that person took good care of me during the time I sealed my memories, and I did have feelings for him because of my girlish heart palpitations, but those feelings slowly faded away over time."

"I'm sorry to him, but I don't want to be sorry to you even more. I'm selfish; all I want is to be with you year after year."

The crushes of a young girl often make one stubbornly believe they will last forever.

Even Cang Li was not immune to this.

"So, Ayan, let's get married!"

The young man couldn't suppress his excitement when the girl brought it up for the second time. Even though he was very rational, he could still hear the rhythm of his heartbeat through his ribs.

She smiled, her eyes crinkling, and lowered her head to listen to his heartbeat. "Ayan, you said you didn't love me, but your heartbeat betrays you~"

The little girl's mischievousness was hard for the man to handle, and he finally sighed.

"Zhaozhao, you're still young, there's no rush to get married."

Cang Li grew anxious and got up to look at him.

Are you still going to refuse?

Cang Yan shook his head and smiled, "When you grow up, if you still choose me then, we'll get married."

The little girl stared in amazement.

The young man's smile was pure and innocent, like a white magnolia blooming alone in a valley, noble and elegant, making her feel that it was even more dazzling than the stars in the sky.

So lovely.

Cang Li blushed slightly before reluctantly letting him go. "You can't go back on your word, but it's no use doing so now! The divine contract is set. You think you can just abandon me? No way!"

Cang Li looked at him smugly, "No matter where you are, I can get to your side..."

"A little bit~"

The little girl made a funny face.

The young man sighed again, helplessly, "You..."

Cang Yan thought for a moment, then took off the magnolia ring from his hand and put it on her left ring finger.

"Zhaozhao, you take this."

"what?"

Cang Li glanced at it and suddenly felt guilty. This ring...

"These are some of my most treasured possessions from over the years. You're about to leave, so they'll be useful to you."

"A rare treasure..."

She doesn't want to!

And what good stuff could be found inside?

Wait, should we leave?

Cang Li's eyelashes trembled slightly, her voice bitter, "You still want to send me away?"

why?

The young man sensed her sadness, smiled, pulled her down to his neck, and whispered in her ear with pale, thin lips, a strange and alluring whisper.

"I want... Zhao Zhao to kill them with her own hands..."

kill?

The magnolia ring on the woman's wrist glittered slightly, and her eyes momentarily went blank.

...........

Fantasy Universe Continent, Snow Crystal State.

Snow Crystal Imperial City.

The palace, in a remote and desolate palace.

A cold wind howled, and the ragged boy knelt on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly. "Royal sister, I beg you! Give me back the fire-extinguishing grass! My mother is waiting for it to save her life!"

Tears welled in the boy's pale eyes, and blood trickled from the tips of his fingers, which were even whiter than snow, freezing into ice.

Dressed in a gorgeous gold and pink princess gown, Su Xueyuan lowered her head, her eyes filled with disgust, and kicked the boy away.

"A bastard born of a lowly maidservant dares to call me Imperial Sister?!"

"roll!"

"You stink! Don't get my clothes dirty!"
