I woke up to find myself as the villain's older sister.

"A dream?" Yun Qingyi immediately grasped the key information, looked at Uncle Shang in front of her, and said in disbelief, "You're saying that the place we're in is just a dream?"

“Of course it’s not an ordinary dream.” Knowing what Yun Qingyi wanted to say, Uncle Shang explained directly: “Rather than a dream, it’s more accurate to say that it’s through the medium of dreams that you are in this space that is between virtual and reality.”

"It's a bit confusing," Leng Zhan said, feeling a little dizzy as he listened to Uncle Shang's words.

"Then... whose dream is this medium?" Ji Zhaoze pondered for a moment and asked.

Uncle Shang remained silent for a moment before saying, "It's a dream created by the dead mermaids."

Those merfolk who died are already...

Thinking of this, Yun Qingyi seemed to realize something, glanced at the mermaid princess, and then quietly looked away.

Because he didn't tell others much about what happened a thousand years ago, Liangmeng's memories have become distorted due to Tuso's actions.

So apart from her, Yun Qingrou, and Ji Zhaoze, no one else knew the hidden meaning of those words.

If it was just speculation at first, now there is no doubt that Uncle Shang is also one of the people Tuso left here.

Yun Qingyi's gaze shifted slightly as she glanced at Liang Meng.

Nearly a thousand years of scheming, all for the sake of finding a way for his beloved to live.

Although she was a little annoyed at being used as a pawn for no reason, it still touched her somewhat.

Looking at the expressions of Yun Qingyi and the others, Uncle Shang understood that they had figured out the whole story, so he continued with a smile, "So, to leave this dream, we have to destroy the souls of those dead merfolk."

“But they’ve already…” Ji Zhaozhe was about to say.

Uncle Shang immediately interrupted, "They are those souls that accidentally escaped."

Upon hearing this, Yun Qingyi and the others immediately understood that what had accidentally escaped was not the soul that had already merged with the mermaid princess.

Come to think of it, after all these years, apart from those early souls with stronger self-awareness that would escape from Liangmeng's body, the rest have long since become nourishment for Liangmeng's body.

Seeing that Yun Qingyi, Yun Qingrou, Ji Zhaoze, and the others looked thoughtful, the rest of the people were completely confused.

Especially Liang Meng, although she has become much more aloof now, she is still gossipy and active by nature. Hearing Uncle Shang and Yun Qingyi talking in a riddle-like manner, she could not help but speak up and said, "Uncle Shang, senior, I only understand half of what you are saying."

Is there anything I don't know?

"It's nothing." Yun Qingyi calmly touched her nose. "Let's go. Let's not worry about these things for now. Uncle Shang is the only one here. Let's trust him for now and go and destroy those merman souls."

Upon hearing this, Leng Zhan shuddered, glanced cautiously at Liang Meng, then at Liang Ming, and said, "Uncle-Master, isn't this too cruel? After all, those souls are also the same kind of people as your two merman friends."

After saying that, he realized that everyone else was very calm except for him. Ji Zhaoling even gave him a look that said he was an idiot.

"I have to say, Leng Zhan, your memory is truly something else." Looking at Leng Zhan's dazed expression, Ji Zhaoling couldn't help but tease him, "Didn't your martial uncle already say that before?"

“Those monstrous things can no longer be called souls, so what’s so cruel about them?”
