âDo you remember the first time we met? I never thought I could fall so madly in love with you on first sight. Thatâs when I knew you had to be my one and only love of my life. But it seems I was too late in coming into your life, your attention was always on the person next to you. In order to make an impression, I did the only thing I knew how and kept bullying you. I knew that would only cause you to resist me further. So why, why are you leaving me so soon after I went through such lengths to win your heart? Without you, my life has no meaning left to it!â
The manâs footsteps were awkward and staggering by this point. Nevertheless, the grip around that cold body of the woman in his arms never once loosened like itâs the only way to keep his sanity intact.
âSire!â
Seeing how their kingâs about to leave, the leading figure of the soldiers in the background anxiously stood up to beckon the man to return.
âI wonât say it for a third time, SCRAM!â
Another old elder impatiently speaks up despite the warning: âSire, what about the Demon Realm? If you leaveâ¦.â
âDemon Realm?â The man started to laugh hysterically till his voice echoed across the sky in this quiet battlefield, âIf not for the Demon Realm⦠if not for you bunch of fools! My wife would not have abandoned me! Damn you all! Damn every single one of you!â
âBut I wonât kill you all. Not because I donât want to, noâ¦. but because I donât want my wifeâs sacrifice to be in vain. However, that doesnât mean I will forgive any of you. In this lifetime, I never want to see anyone from the Demon Realm again!â
After leaving that behind, the man continued to walk towards the endless wasteland which lies ahead of this location, his mouth constantly trickling out with blood. But in the end, the injuries and pain were too much for his soul.
Crashing to the cold hard ground with his knees scraped as a result, he throws up a big mouthful of blood to indicate how weak his body was. In fact, merely supporting his own weight has become a enormous effort in itself.
âDi Cang!â
Bai Yanâs heart ached profusely at the painful sight. Sadly, when it came time for her to reach out with that hand in order to grab the manâs arm, it merely went through like an illusion.
Itâs the same as the last time againâ¦. I canât touch anyone in this space just like that vision with Little Rice.
âYou have left me so many times already, and every time I have somehow managed to make it in time. But this timeâ¦. It seems I can no longer find you again.â The manâs face leaked out a dreary smile as he laid the precious body to the ground, âBut donât worry⦠even if I have to exhaust all my life and energy, I will make it so that you can have another opportunity at being reincarnated!â After saying that, the man then rests his hand on the lower abdomen of the womanâs belly where thereâs an obvious bump of a small life yet to be born.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âI remember when you named this little fox on that day. You said you hope the baby would be as bright as the morning sun, thatâs why you named him Xiachen. Thankfully you are pregnant, giving me the chance to reshape your soulâ¦â
Note: For anyone wondering, unlike western names thatâs only intended to be unique, Chinese names are always meant to have a specific meaning instead even if it sounds like the most common name around.
âEven if it costs me my life, I will definitely make you anew again!â
The following words were deaf to Bai Yanâs ear at this point. Sheâs shaking because of how unbelievable things were.
Xiachenâ¦
The unborn child, he is also called Xiachen?
Tightly pursing her lips, tears flowed out of those pained eyes with no control from the host.
