Chapter 328 Extra 4: Reunion
Xie Wanxun lay helplessly on the ground, her body turning into faint light and gradually dissipating.
"No! Why?" Si Jinchuan hugged Xie Wanxun tightly, asking incredulously, "Why did you die!"
“I saw it. My reincarnated self has a wonderful life. When I think that I also have the opportunity to live like an ordinary person, and have family and friends, I suddenly don’t hate as much anymore.”
She hated the injustice of fate, hated that her enemy was still alive, and hated her own powerlessness even more.
She harbored recurring hatred towards Si Jinchuan, which plunged her into deep anguish. She was unwilling to forgive him, yet unable to let him go.
It's like rubbing a wound with rough gravel; it will only prevent the bleeding wound from ever healing.
However, when she saw that she also had a chance to live a good life, she suddenly stopped hating.
"And what about me? Are you going to abandon me again?!" Si Jinchuan felt his heart being gripped tightly, a mixture of anger and grief welling up inside him.
"No more, I'll never come back. Si Jinchuan, look at me." Xie Wanning reached out and ripped off the blindfold, revealing her scarlet eyes already stained with tears, a sense of helplessness palpable.
"Why are you crying like a child? Don't you hate me?" Xie Wanxun laughed, blood trickling from the corner of her mouth.
She and Si Jinchuan fought day and night in this field, sustained by their hatred.
"I didn't! I've never hated you," Si Jinchuan explained frantically. He held Xie Wanxun tightly, his voice trembling as he said, "I was scared. I was scared of leaving you again. I was scared of not being able to find you, so I trapped you in this area. I was wrong. So please, don't go, okay? Wanxun."
Xie Wanxun's body became transparent. She looked at Si Jinchuan and said with a smile, "Okay. I remember everything from the past clearly. Now I just want to tell you that I forgive you, Mo Xuan."
As soon as she finished speaking, Xie Wanxun disappeared.
Looking at his empty hands, Si Jinchuan suddenly smiled with relief.
Mo Xuan, he liked this name, and he deeply loved the person who gave her the name.
No matter where she is, he will find her and follow her.
"Yes, I've come to find you, Wanxun."
Si Jinchuan closed his eyes, and darkness enveloped him. However, his body transformed into a glimmer of light and vanished along with the domain.
Xie Wanxun and Si Jinchuan, who exist in this realm, both live on out of their obsessions.
She hated him because she couldn't let go of what he had done.
He hated her because he was unwilling to let go and give her her freedom.
They were bound by their obsessions, and together they built this realm with those same obsessions.
Yet they were so alike; they knew each other's obsessions and the reasons for each other's suffering.
The pain of the fighting kept them conscious, allowing them to continue upholding their obsession.
As long as the obsession remains, the domain will endure.
Once the obsession dissipated, they went their separate ways.
……
"Finally out." Xie Wanxun stood up, stretched her limbs, and listened to the cheerful chirping of birds, feeling extremely relaxed.
She was still basking in the joy of escaping the secret realm when suddenly someone hugged her from behind.
The embrace came without warning, gentle yet impossible to break free from. The other person's arms wrapped around her softly, with just the right amount of pressure, as if trying to meld her into their own body.
Xie Wanxun was taken aback at first, then her body gradually relaxed, and a strange sense of peace welled up in her heart.
She could feel the person behind her trembling, whether it was the excitement of reuniting with an old friend or the panic of losing a lover.
"Si Jinchuan, there's nothing to be afraid of. Look, I'm perfectly fine, aren't I?" Xie Wanxun smiled, breaking free from Si Jinchuan's embrace and spinning around in front of him.
"Wanxun, next time remember to point your sword here." Si Jinchuan pointed to his right chest, his voice trembling: "I never want to see you leave again."
"Alright, it's all over now." Xie Wanxun patted Si Jinchuan's shoulder to comfort him. "If you really care about me, you should think about how to ease the tension between the demons and humans. That would put my mind at ease."
"I will go to the Twilight Snow Sect tomorrow to ask for your hand in marriage. Wanxun, I don't care what others think, I only want you!" Si Jinchuan said urgently, saying everything that was on his mind.
He was afraid that if he didn't speak up soon, he might really lose Wanxun.
Upon hearing this, Xie Wanxun's cheeks instantly flushed red, and she said awkwardly, "This matter... this matter cannot be rushed. Please allow me to consider it further."
“However, I have a good idea.” Xie Wanxun’s eyes flashed with a sly light. She walked behind Si Jinchuan and said, “Close your eyes and don’t turn around.”
Si Jinchuan stood obediently in place, not moving an inch.
Suddenly, a gentle breeze swept by, causing Xie Wanxun's hair to sway softly, and her hair ribbon to move with it. Xie Wanxun raised her hand, pinched the end of the ribbon, and gently pulled it out from her hair. She held the ribbon in front of her eyes, examining it carefully, a faint smile playing on her lips.
Xie Wanxun carefully unfolded the hairband and slowly covered Si Jinchuan's eyes.
Si Jinchuan subconsciously shrank his neck, but couldn't help but smile.
At the same time, Xie Wanxun's warm lips brushed against Si Jinchuan's earlobe, and she whispered, "Si Jinchuan, tell me, if I erase your memories now, or turn you into a puppet, will you be unable to escape anymore?"
"Do as you please, Wanxun," Si Jinchuan said gently.
Xie Wanxun's cheeks flushed slightly, and she coughed awkwardly twice.
She clearly wanted to scare him, but Si Jinchuan wasn't afraid at all. How boring.
Xie Wanxun had a sudden inspiration. She stood in front of Si Jinchuan, looking at the oblivious Si Jinchuan, and tiptoed to give him a light kiss on the cheek.
Then, looking at the panicked Si Jinchuan, she shouted, "Senior Brother Si, see you tomorrow!"
After saying that, Xie Wanxun jumped onto Luoze Sword and left Bamboo Forest Mountain.
Si Jinchuan stood there, his face as red as a ripe berry. He had just been thinking that Wan Xun was going to threaten him again, but he never expected her to kiss him.
Yes! He wasn't shy, he was just caught off guard.
Si Jinchuan took off his hairband and carefully put it into his storage bag.
At the same time, his gaze fell on the tombstone, and with a single stroke of his Xuan Sword, he cleaved it into dust.
He is not Helian Jinchuan, he is the real Si Jinchuan.
In the distance, Xie Wanxun sat on Luo Ze's sword, the joy in her eyes slowly fading, replaced by a cold indifference.
The moonlight shone on her, and a strand of white hair could be faintly seen among her fluttering hair.
Xie Wanxun opened her hand, and a ball of will-o'-the-wisp appeared in her palm. It was the will-o'-the-wisp that had entered her consciousness space when Si Jinchuan had been holding her.
It turns out that in that life, 'she' knew who that non-existent person was.
Xie Wanxun's eyes turned cold as countless unfamiliar memories flooded her mind.
Wan Ning, my sister, I will definitely find you.
