[After Ran Jingjing read the letter left by Xin Wan'en.]
[She stood frozen for a long time.]
[Just as the letter had said, she had indeed fallen in love with Ye Yu.]
[The year in Chouyang City was the happiest time of Ran Jingjing's life.]
[She truly enjoyed every moment spent with Ye Yu.]
[Whenever they were together, she could forget all her worries.]
[But Ran Jingjing knew deep down that Ye Yu was Xin Wan'en’s Dao companion, and their bond was strong.]
[So, she had always kept her feelings hidden, never sharing them with anyone.]
[But Ran Jingjing never expected that Xin Wan'en would have noticed.]
[Is it really impossible to hide the look in one’s eyes when in love?]
[Ran Jingjing instinctively twirled the storage ring on her finger.]
[The gift Ye Yu gave her was still there, but Chouyang City was no more.]
[You’ve all gone, and I’m left all alone. It’s so lonely.]
[Ran Jingjing sat in the ruins, hugging her knees, curling into a ball.]
[It felt like only in this way could she feel some relief.]
[A thousand years later.]
[Ran Jingjing had reached the ❖ Nоvеl𝚒ght ❖ (Exclusive on Nоvеl𝚒ght) late stage of the Ghost King Realm.]
[She had traveled through every corner of the underworld.]
[Yet, she still hadn’t found any trace of Ye Yu.]
[She had completely given up.]
[If not for Xin Wan'en’s letter to hold onto all these years.]
[Ran Jingjing would have long broken under the torment.]
[That kind of extreme loneliness and despair could drive a person mad.]
[To escape the pain, Ran Jingjing returned to the place where she first met Ye Yu.]
[She released all her soul energy, and in the final moment of dissipating, she instinctively turned the storage ring on her hand once again.]
[Ye Yu, if there’s a next life, I hope I can meet you earlier.]
[Earlier than Xin Wan'en.]
[I no longer want to hide my feelings!]
[Ran Jingjing slowly closed her eyes. Darkness fell, and everything around her shattered in an instant.]
In the Underworld, on Treading Spring Mountain:
Ran Jingjing slowly opened her eyes and looked around in confusion.
[This... This is Treading Spring Mountain.]
[The place where she had woken up after the ghost energy revived.]
[Wait, the ghost energy is still quite thin now. It’s nowhere near as surging as before.]
[Did I wake up too early?]
[No, why am I saying “too early”?]
[And what about everything that happened before? Could it have been just a dream?]
[Were Ye Yu and Xin Wan'en all illusions?]
Ran Jingjing cupped her face in her hands and couldn’t help but laugh bitterly.
[I must have gone crazy.]
[How could I have had such a dream?]
[And how crazy was it to fall in love with a male ghost?]
[In the end, unable to bear the loneliness, I chose to end my life.]
[How surreal.]
After a moment, Ran Jingjing decided to leave Treading Spring Mountain and continue looking for a way to kill Lü Zhong.
[This blood feud must be avenged!]
Unconsciously, Ran Jingjing turned the storage ring on her finger.
The cold sensation made her freeze in place.
She lowered her head in disbelief.
[On my left hand, there are two storage rings.]
[One on my little finger is the storage ring I originally had.]
[But the other one is on my ring finger.]
The unique design on the surface made all the memories from her dream flood back.
Xin Lanying almost stumbled.
After barely stabilizing herself, she held her shoulder and said with a resentful tone, [Sister, if you really don’t like me, there’s no need to target me.]
[You almost shattered my soul.]
Xin Wan'en stopped, her gaze cold as she looked at Xin Lanying.
The latter immediately felt an overwhelming pressure.
[In Xin Lanying’s mind, Xin Wan'en had always been a very kind and indecisive person.]
[Originally, she had planned to make Xin Wan'en feel guilty.]
[Then, she could take some heavenly treasures to recover her health.]
[But Xin Wan'en today seemed like a completely different person.]
[She even radiated a terrifying killing intent.]
It made Xin Lanying’s scalp tingle.
She sensed something was wrong and hurriedly took a few steps back.
But it was too late.
With a thought from Xin Wan'en, an invisible ghost claw grabbed Xin Lanying’s neck and lifted her high into the air.
[What do you think you are? A mere illegitimate daughter with impure intentions, and you dare to joke with me?]
[Do you really think I won’t kill you?]
As the ghost claw tightened, Xin Lanying’s soul showed signs of breaking apart.
She hurriedly begged for mercy: [Sister, don’t kill me, please don’t kill me.]
[Even though I’m a concubine’s daughter, I shouldn’t be killed just for a joke.]
[It’s unreasonable.]
Xin Wan'en said, [Then let me kill you in clarity. Ghost-Devouring Technique, Burial Flower Ghost Mansion, Cao Yongyu!]
[Killing you will bring true peace to the Xin family.]
Upon hearing these words, Xin Lanying’s pupils instantly dilated.
[What’s going on?]
[How does Xin Wan'en know about her connection to the Burial Flower Ghost Mansion? How does she know about the Ghost-Devouring Technique?]
[This ghost technique... I’ve never told anyone about it.]
