Hearing Jiang Mian's equally solemn promise, Ye Chenyang's burning emotions were reignited.

"Mianmian..."

He held Jiang Mian tightly, their skin touching, sharing each other's warmth.

After seeing the documents left by Zhao Niugao, Ye Chenyang couldn't help but think:

What would things be like now if Jiang Mian hadn't existed?

Without a doubt, the [Catastrophe] faction is unmatched in power, creating the current one-sided situation.

If it were just him, he would probably still be pretending while plotting to find the mole.

It's impossible for it to be as fast as it is now; it will take at least a few years, and many people will die in the process.

Before eliminating all the other supreme calamities except her, the ultimate being behind the mist might also make its move ahead of time.

What kind of despair will there be then?

Although Ye Chenyang hadn't figured out how to deal with it yet, the thought of Jiang Mian by his side gave him a surge of motivation and confidence.

He already has a "home" of his own, and he must not fall down easily!

"Baby?"

Noticing his emotional fluctuations, Jiang Mian gently stroked his cheek.

"Mianmian, you probably already guessed my secret, right?"

Ye Chenyang gently grasped her wrist.

It's so delicate and light, yet such a hand contains the power to easily destroy a city.

"Why are you suddenly saying that?"

Jiang Mian was stunned.

She had long suspected that Ye Chenyang might be a reincarnated person, but she never asked any further questions.

Because she, too, harbored many things she couldn't easily reveal.

I said what I wanted to say.

Ye Chenyang whispered in Jiang Mian's ear, his eyes filled with tenderness.

"You're the closest person to me. And you said we'd be together forever, didn't you?"

"Um."

Jiang Mian let out a soft murmur, pressed her chest against his, and listened quietly to his explanation.

"I come from a future that has already embarked on a path of destruction..."

Ye Chenyang recounted his experiences one by one.

In her previous life, Yin Mengyao died from an assassination attempt at Wangchuan, and Xiao Shuang also disappeared due to the riots on the western front, so he was probably dead as well.

Meanwhile, both Mr. Gu and Mr. Yang Xin were seriously injured and unable to recover.

Qin Xiao, on the other hand, perished in the two-front war in the north, ultimately perishing together with the [Wuxiang] who was entrenched in the northeast, just like the fate of the previous generation [Wanxiang].

The River of Oblivion also played a crucial role in this.

In the end, even Ye Chenyang and Diaoling switched places.

He simply couldn't imagine how Jiang Li would cope alone with Shura and the River of Oblivion.

"And what about me?"

Jiang Mian asked curiously.

Ye Chenyang's words seemed to never place himself among the "enemies".

"You..."

He lowered his head and gently kissed Jiang Mian's forehead.

"To be honest, no one has ever seen the true face of the 'Apocalypse,' making it the most mysterious and ultimate calamity."

"Well, so all that worrying about you before was just me lying! I was worrying for nothing!"

Jiang Mian angrily punched his chest.

The fact that he didn't exert any force actually made Ye Chenyang feel a strange sense of satisfaction.

He raised the corners of his mouth slightly and followed her words:

"Actually, it's pretty much the same. Even if you weren't in the 'apocalypse,' I would still..."

Jiang Mian shot a glare at Ye Chenyang, but Ye Chenyang stopped her abruptly.

so close!

I got carried away just now and almost revealed my "criminal plan".

He guiltily looked away and abruptly changed the subject:

"Mianmian, how about... you change how you address me?"

"Hmm? How so?"

"Look, given our relationship, why don't we just call each other 'Old Man'?"

"You're dreaming!"

Jiang Mian snorted softly, interrupting Ye Chenyang, and nudged his chest with her horn in dissatisfaction.

"But if you work hard enough, I might consider it."

"How should I try?"

Ye Chenyang feigned doubt.

What do you think?

Jiang Mian propped herself up, revealing a mischievous smile.

"Since we still have some free time, why don't we..."

Ye Chenyang couldn't help but swallow.

It seems like I've... triggered some incredible switch?

……

"Hiss~"

Xu Xiaoan sat alone on the roof of the guesthouse, a bad feeling creeping into her heart, as if something important had been stolen from her.

She pouted and counted her fingers listlessly.

After she "grew up," it became inconvenient for Sister Mian to even touch her own head.

Xu Xiaoan knows that her memories are fake, but the experience of Jiang Mian raising her and cultivating her personality is real.

In addition, her power originates from Jiang Mian, and she naturally possesses an extremely high level of intimacy with him.

Even if Jiang Mian just smiled at her, Xu Xiaoan could be happy for a long time.

But Ye Chenyang's position in Jiang Mian's heart was too secure, and no one could shake it.

To gain Jiang Mian's attention, you either need to act cute and provide emotional value, or accomplish something great.

Based on these two points, Xu Xiaoan considered returning to her original state.

She is [Formless].

Even if the original body becomes like this, it can be condensed without any problem, but maintaining it will consume extra resources.

Simply put, it means allocating a portion of memory to run the fake program at all times.

The only cost is that your "brain" works a little slower.

Decided!

The next time Sister Mian comes out, she will put on a disguise and see how the other person reacts.

"Um?"

Xu Xiaoan frowned and looked up into the distance.

His gaze seemed to pierce through countless fortresses, reaching straight to that surging sea of ​​black blood.

A faint whisper suddenly rang out from the depths of her consciousness.

"child……"

Xu Xiaoan suddenly felt as if something was gripping her heart.

Huh? She doesn't seem to have that organ?

That's fine.

In short, it gave me a creepy feeling.

"Who?"

Xu Xiaoan quickly got up and looked around, but there was no one there.

"You... belong to us..."

"Seize...the origin..."

"What nonsense are you spouting? Go away, leave me alone!"

She frowned and waved her hand as if shooing away flies.

The sound had truly vanished, completely and utterly, as if it had never existed.

"Da, da..."

Just then, footsteps came from behind.

Xu Xiaoan turned around and asked in confusion:

"Sister Jiang Li?"

Jiang Li was dressed in a plain white dress, her long hair casually draped over her shoulders, her temperament still serene and gentle.

But for some reason, Xu Xiaoan felt that something was wrong.

Perhaps it's just because it happened so coincidentally?

"Xiao An? What are you doing sitting here all by yourself?"

Jiang Li's voice was as gentle as ever, but there seemed to be a hint of fatigue in her eyes.

A day has passed since the end of the war.

During this period, she spent a lot of time in the field hospital, helping to treat many wounded soldiers, which seemed normal.

"N-nothing."

Xu Xiaoan shook her head, subconsciously concealing the fact that she had just heard the delirium.

Sister Mian seems to have given me similar instructions before, so I'd better tell her first.

"I sense that the chaotic power here is a bit strange. I've come up here to take a closer look."

What she said is true.

When this power erupted, it actually resonated with her in a subtle way.

However, Xu Xiaoan was eager to distance himself from the matter at the time, so he did not investigate it carefully.

It now seems that she can use this power to strengthen herself, but the price is that she may hear some strange noises.

Fortunately, she was originally a [Formless] being, and after merging with part of the power of [Eternal Day], her resistance to mental erosion was almost at its maximum.

"Is that so?"

Jiang Li seemed to be thinking about something, and then she looked worried.

"It's too dangerous. Shouldn't we try it when everyone is together?"

"Uh-huh."

Xu Xiaoan readily agreed, then walked towards the stairwell, turning back to wave at her.

Jiang Li nodded happily.

However, when Xu Xiaoan turned around, a hint of seriousness flashed in her wine-red eyes.

Deep in her eyes, a strange longing seemed to emerge, but Jiang Li quickly suppressed it, as quickly as an illusion.
