Not following the expected path? Reborn and unexpectedly married to a demon.

What she didn't know was that love was only a small part of her life; she had so many other things to care about.

Jin Wuchen originally thought that Chen Shu, a mere scholar, posed no threat to him.

After all, back in Shouyuan Village, Mianshui Town, Chu Luo didn't pay much attention to Chen Shu, and even left without saying goodbye.

However, after listening to Chu Luo recount their past and learning about Chen Shu's actions, Chu Luo realized that Chen Shu was no ordinary person.

If he had met Chu Luo back then, he would not have paid any attention to Chen Shu, and his love for Chu Luo would only have been more intense and grander at any time.

But more importantly, it's Chu Luo's feelings.

Chen Shu said that there was nothing wrong with him. He did not make promises lightly, and when he failed to get what he wanted, he did not say that he would make Chu Luo his mistress.

Given his patience and wisdom, it wouldn't be impossible for him to secretly raise Chu Luo elsewhere.

He was self-disciplined and upright, and even when he couldn't have her, he did his best to protect her. In the end, for Chu Luo's sake, he even cut off Chu Luo's thoughts of him. If it weren't for his mother, Chu Luo would probably never have known his deep affection for him.

He and Chu Luo were deeply in love, and he silently devoted himself to Chu Luo. He was the person Chu Luo once wanted to spend her life with, but in the end, they could not be together.

In Chu Luo's heart, he is probably like the bright moon in the night sky.

This time, even though Chen Shu had no memory of it, he was still involuntarily drawn to Chu Luo and did his best to protect her and find someone to rescue her in Mianshui Town.

Jin Wuchen was truly unsure whether Chu Luo would fall for Chen Shu again when she saw him.

"If you meet him again, will you rekindle your relationship?" Jin Wuchen fell to the ground.

Seeing this question, Chu Luo's memories of Chen Shu flashed before her eyes, her eyes slightly moist. She then firmly shook her head and smiled, "He's a very good person. As long as he doesn't have anything to do with me, he can have a smooth and fulfilling life. Once, receiving his deep affection was enough; there will be nothing more."

Chu Luo knew very well what she was here to do in this life. If she couldn't kill Feng Zhe, she couldn't save Chen Shu, who died on the siege wall of Jiangzhou.

As for the statement, it's best to end it in that lifetime.

Jin Wuchen knew that Chu Luo was a persistent person. Unless she was willing to give up on a pointless argument, even if he fought and snatched it, she might not necessarily win in her heart.

Chen Shu was a proper and upright gentleman, but Jin Wuchen was not.

The rules could restrain Chen Shu, but not him; he was the rules themselves. These conditions made it easier for him to win over Chu Luo. But Chu Luo's heart was enclosed in a thick wall of defense, making it extremely difficult to open its door.

In matters of the heart, if she is willing, she will offer her whole heart even if you have nothing; but if she is not willing, she will not care even if you offer her the world.

"If all of this were just a dream, I wish none of this would have happened when I woke up," Chu Luo muttered to herself.

Jin Wuchen had heard of rebirth and knew it wasn't a dream. Compared to a dream, he felt that Chu Luo was reborn because of her obsession.

Her obsession was to kill Feng Zhe.

Thus, Chu Luo's various inexplicable behaviors can be explained.

Jin Wuchen had no idea what exactly she had done, but given Chu Luo's intelligence, it couldn't have been that simple.

Feng Zhe had brought Chu Luo too many nightmares and was far too dangerous. Despite his numerous attempts, he had failed to kill Feng Zhe, and he no longer wanted Chu Luo to get close to him.

He will find a way to kill people. Chu Luo's illness is not cured; she needs proper care and treatment until Fei Zhiyou finds a way to cure her.

Right now, the important thing is to leave this place; the time he spent here felt like a dream he had earned.

Chu Luo followed him and looked around the area, pondering how to leave this place.

Suddenly, several large birds flew across the sky and circled overhead.

Chu Luo had rarely seen such a large bird before, and she wondered if she could use it to come up with some ideas.

Jin Wuchen glanced at the bird and immediately pulled Chu Luo back.

"Why?" At first, Chu Luo didn't understand, but the next moment, the big birds swooped down towards them and told her the answer.

She wanted to use the bird as a tool, and the bird wanted to catch her as food; both had ulterior motives.

The bird's claws were about as thick as Chu Luo's arm, and extremely sharp. Chu Luo was caught off guard and almost got a clawed wound, but luckily Jin Wuchen was quick-witted and pulled her away.

"Brother Jingyuan, you saved me again," Chu Luo said, panting.

The flock of birds did not give up on the food they had their eyes on, circling in the air, waiting for an opportunity to strike.

Knowing their ferocity, Jin Wuchen pulled Chu Luo behind a crevice in the rocks. The crevice was narrow, and Chu Luo clung tightly to Jin Wuchen's chest.

Jin Wuchen kept an eye on the birds outside and watched their movements. Chu Luo, not wanting to move, remained still. Listening to Jin Wuchen's heartbeat, she sensed something was wrong, a shift from her initial nervousness and embarrassment.

Jingyuan's heartbeat was not like that of a healthy adult man; it was very slow, indicating either a serious injury or the advanced age of an elderly person.

"Brother Jingyuan, you..." Chu Luo was about to say something when Jin Wuchen covered her mouth.

A large bird began pecking at the rocks where they were hiding. Chu Luo hadn't expected the bird to be so fierce.

Besides this bird, there was a flock of others in the air.

If they went out now, Brother Jingyuan and she would probably be eaten alive, leaving only bones.

Chu Luo couldn't hear anything, but she saw Jing Yuan put his hand to his mouth and blow something. Soon after, the large bird that was pecking at their stones flew up, sometimes far away and sometimes near, as if it was wary of something.

Jin Wuchen took Chu Luo's hand and wrote in her palm that she should stay here and not go out, while he went out to lure the birds away.

"No, that would be very dangerous for you," Chu Luo said, shaking her head in a low voice. Besides, his physical condition wasn't as good as it seemed, and he didn't know any martial arts. How could he possibly defeat these vicious birds?

Jin Wuchen saw the worry in her eyes and wrote in her palm, "Trust me, I will come back alive to take you back."

"But..." Chu Luo's eyes were red as she wanted to persuade him again, but Jin Wuchen gently pushed her inside and then quickly bowed and left.

Soon, several birds were attracted to Jin Wuchen and flew towards him.

A short while later, with Jin Wuchen's departure, the birds that had been circling around disappeared. Chu Luo dared not be careless and squatted inside, anxiously waiting for Jing Yuan to return.

But every moment she regretted agreeing to let Jingyuan go on the risk alone.

How could I have so inexplicably believed him? They were friends who had been through life and death together, and they should share the burden of trouble.

Chu Luo thought for a moment, but she was still worried. She picked up a few stones and was about to go out of the stone wall to find him, so that they could die together.

She cautiously walked out and headed in the direction Jingyuan had just left.

Out of worry, she quickened her pace, and the abyss beside her no longer attracted her attention.

She was also unaware of the enormous danger following her.
