Quick Transmigration: After Fake Death, All the Protagonists I Flirted With Went Crazy

Gu Yao entrusted the reconstruction of Shangqing Realm entirely to Shen Juan.

He spent his days in the Heavenly Book Pavilion, searching for any way to repair Shen Juan's gouged-out right eye.

Unexpectedly, he first turned to that ancient scroll.

When he saw the illusory figure in front of him, Gu Yao knew who it was.

The person he knew from the very beginning of his life—Shen Ye.

Shen Ye seemed surprised that the one who opened the scroll was not one of his own descendants.

They looked Gu Yao up and down several times.

Shen Ye exclaimed in surprise, "How strange! How strange! You are not a descendant of my clan, so why do you have the aura of my clan all over your body?"

"Otherwise, this magical artifact would not have been mistaken."

Gu Yao blushed when asked the question.

Kind of embarrassing.

What if the little scandals you and your wife have done were exposed to her ancestors?

Shen Ye didn't ask any more questions.

He waved his hand, "Enough, enough. It's fate that you, a junior, were able to open this scroll."

"There is something I would like to ask you to convey to me, young friend."

Gu Yao smiled and gestured for him to sit down. "Senior, please have a seat."

Shen Ye waved his hand, "No need, I am just a remnant soul."

“My clan is about to face a great calamity. I have done my best. My time to ascend to immortality is approaching. However, there is one thing that still makes me uneasy and keeps me awake at night, tossing and turning.”

Gu Yao clenched his fingers, as if he already knew what Shen Ye was going to say.

Gu Yao looked up at the illusory figure in front of him, and it seemed that he saw another figure.

A beautiful and pretty face overlapped with a handsome and rugged face, and two voices overlapped.

“I have a close friend, who is the Demon Lord Li Mu.”

"I have a good friend, he is Fox Lord Shen Ye."

"I have something to say, please convey it to me, young friend."

"Although I know you will never see him, please go to his grave and give him a message."

"I am ill-fated and depart from my dear friend. I hope you take good care of yourself!"

"In my next life, even if I have to steal him from my bride, I'll still snatch him away."

The tall, illusory figure before them was already bowing respectfully.

Shen Ye looked up, but his figure gradually faded away. He seemed to have let out his last breath, with a faint smile on his face.

Gu Yao, however, was somewhat unwilling. He stepped forward, looked directly at this ancient predecessor, and asked, word by word:

"Senior, have you ever been in love with Li Mu?"

He wasn't asking on his own behalf.

Instead, he asked on behalf of Li Mu.

Shen Ye's expression became somewhat blank, as if he had been stumped by Gu Yao's question.

Suddenly, he stared intently at Gu Yao.

"Perhaps there is, but as the Fox King, I have more important responsibilities."

Because he is the Fox King, he cannot act willfully.

It is not easy for the gods to conceive offspring, and when Shen Ye was there, the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan was no longer at its peak.

There may have been some affection, but the continued prosperity of the nine-tailed fox clan is clearly more important.

The figure in the dark night vanished completely.

The last trace of his soul that remained in this world also vanished completely.

Gu Yao lowered his eyes, but then loosened his grip on his side.

He let out a breath.

Yet, an indescribable sense of melancholy filled my heart.

Fox Lord Shen Ye and Demon Lord Li Mu are close friends.

Their relationship ended on the day of the fox king's wedding.

The word "close friend" trapped them for a lifetime.

Even after death, Shen Ye defined their relationship as "soulmates".

They did not overstep any bounds, yet after their deaths, the other party remained fixated on them and refused to disperse.

Gu Yao shook his head to clear his mind and continued searching for those rare books, hoping to find a solution.

----

I am the Demon Lord Li Mu.

My heart finds joy in the deep night.

However, he complied with the elders' arrangement to marry into the Phoenix Clan.

My favorite thing to do is to snuggle up and sleep in the sycamore tree in his yard.

Otherwise, we wouldn't have heard this news.

Shen Ye listened to the clan's arrangements with his eyes lowered.

Those old bastards from the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan were still chattering away.

It's so annoying, I really want to beat them up, but Shen Ye will get angry.

I never expected Shen Ye to agree to this marriage.

The moment Shen Ye agreed to the marriage.

I was bewildered, yet I knew clearly that there was no longer any possibility between us.

I, the mighty Demon Lord Li Mu, had my love, which I never even dared to express, already died in my heart.

Even the phoenix tree that Shen Ye planted in the courtyard, the phoenix tree that he lay on for who knows how long, was it also for that Phoenix Princess?

Without saying a word, I used the Red Lotus Karmic Fire to burn the phoenix tree to ashes.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He went straight to the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan's wine cellar and ruined most of the fine wine inside.

It's truly intoxicating.

That was the first time I had ever been so embarrassed.

As usual, Shen Ye put his arm around me, but this time I didn't let him go. I hugged Shen Ye and, fueled by alcohol, poured out my love for him over the years.

I was desperate, thinking I had a chance, maybe Shen Ye liked me too?

But to his surprise, Shen Ye only paused for a moment.

He then said calmly, "Li Mu, I will pretend I didn't hear anything about what happened today."

With just one sentence, I felt as if I had fallen into an ice cellar; only Shen Ye has that kind of power.

My already half-drunk mind became even more sober.

I shoved him away. "Why should I?"

Shen Ye staggered slightly, but remained as calm as ever. He pinched the bridge of his nose. "Li Mu, you should know that I am the Fox Lord. I cannot act willfully. Now that the clan is in decline, it is up to me to take responsibility..."

"enough!"

I interrupted him sharply.

I know what he's going to say.

It's nothing more than a responsibility, continuing the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan, and such.

I don't want to hear it!

But the tears flowed like a river bursting its banks.

As the most arrogant and unrestrained Demon Lord Li Mu, I will not allow anyone to see me in such a disheveled state.

Even if that person is Shenye.

I turned around and said the words I would regret most in my life.

"Since the Fox Lord has no intention, then I have been presumptuous and will not disturb you any longer. I wish the Fox Lord and the Phoenix Princess a lifetime of happiness together."

After saying that, I slipped away.

I am the freest and most unrestrained being in this world; I can find whatever I want.

They still need to hang themselves on this fox, Shen Ye.

As it turns out, I was indeed hopelessly infatuated with him, Chen Ye.

The marriage ceremony between the two tribes was truly grand.

Shen Ye smiled so happily, holding the Phoenix Clan Princess's hand so tenderly.

I watched the whole thing as if I were torturing myself.

They burned the invitation in a secluded place.

I never saw Shen Ye again after that.

But unexpectedly, the next news I heard about Shen Ye was that Fox Lord Shen Ye had passed away.

I do not believe.

Anyway, I'm not exactly a rule-abiding person.

I caused a scene at Shenye's funeral.

Everyone looked at me with such fear in their eyes.

But I was not willing to accept it.

For the rest of my life, I searched for a way to gather souls and bring them back to life, and I did find it.

But Chen Ye's soul had been scattered for too long and had completely dissipated.

The nine-tailed fox clan gradually declined.

By the time I sensed my impending death, a thousand years had already passed since the end of the night.

The Nine-Tailed Fox Clan was destined for a calamity, and I helped them send away the child with the strongest bloodline in the clan.

Those were the direct descendants of Shen Ye.

Later, one by one, the gods fell, and I was the only one left from my time.

When the world is in turmoil, one can glimpse the secrets of heaven.

I saw that child's future.

I failed to save Shen Ye, nor did I protect the people he cared about.

I want to do something this time.

I want to protect the last bloodline of the nine-tailed fox clan.

When all the gods perish, new gods will surely be born.

Then I'll give it a push.

I dispersed all my spiritual power by the Milky Way.

He poured all his shady thoughts into the river.

After my ascension, a wisp of my soul lingered, trapped in the Demon Palace for an unknown period of time.

Until that junior found this place, I recognized him at a glance as a new deity, and he still carried the aura of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan.

He came to me asking what method could allow him to endure so much karma without dying.

I shook my head, but didn't answer immediately.

I told him my story with Shen Ye.

I am so lonely, I have been in the Demon Palace for too long.

I asked him to pass on a message to Shen Ye.

In my next life, even if it means stealing him from my bride, I will still win him over.

In the end, I still gave that younger generation a glimmer of hope.

That was the method I had spent half my life searching for to bring Shen Ye back to life.

A divination array from the creation era.

The method of gathering souls to bring the dead back to life.

However, the cost of activating it is too high; a slight mistake could result in a life-for-life exchange, or even the death of both.

The junior lowered his eyes but did not take the array plate.

I sighed, but I respected the choice.

After all, if I were to die and Shen Ye were to use this method to gather my soul, I would not agree to it.

I thought that once my obsession dissipated, I should disappear completely, but I am still trapped in the Demon Palace.

Until that child arrived.

He said his name was Shen Juan.

His eyes are so similar to Shen Ye's.

Even in her disheveled and emaciated state, her beauty was still undeniable.

He came to ask me about the method of resurrection.

I didn't want to give him the array plate; the risk was too great.

But seeing Shen Juan's near-collapse, I still gave him the array plate.

I told him to think it over carefully, because the price was too high.

Shen Juan, however, was overjoyed and wept with delight, as if she had found a priceless treasure.

His gaze was intense, more dazzling than the countless stars under the sycamore tree.

I haven't seen the stars in a long time.

He said he cherished what he had done, without regret or remorse.

Looking at him, it was as if I saw my past self again.

They searched the world in this way, just to find the trace of the person they loved.

However, he was luckier than me.

Perhaps because I've been near the soul-gathering array for too long, it seems my wisp of soul can't dissipate.

Or perhaps, I want to see how their story ends.

We've waited all these years, so what's a few more?

I hope they do well.
