Chapter 515: 515: Don’t Taint My Path of Reincarnation…

“Xin’er doesn’t want anything…no tombstone, I just want to rest in peace quietly…I don’t want to be disturbed, and I don’t want incense and candles…for worship.”

“I’m afraid…afraid that these worldly things will contaminate…my path of reincarnation…”

“If there’s an afterlife, Xin’er only wishes…to never see you again…”

Her face still had that soft, beautiful smile, alongside the tears that slid down from the corner of her eyes, blending with the blood stains. She tilted her head to look at her child in her arms, forever frozen in that image.

“Don’t contaminate my path of reincarnation…”

“Don’t contaminate my path of reincarnation…don’t contaminate my path of reincarnation…”

Her voice kept ringing in his ears!

That final scene kept intertwining with what he saw before him, Elder Leisure’s eyes were bloodshot, and his demeanor was mad. He could no longer distinguish whether he was in reality or inside a dream.

Suddenly, he reached out and grabbed Liu Sisi, who was secretly rejoicing about her near escape. He burst into laughter!

The sound of mad laughter echoed far away.

“Let go of me! Let go! Wake up! I’m not your Xin’er, I’m Liu Sisi, I’m Liu Sisi…release, release me!”

Liu Sisi’s eyes started to roll back, her hands desperately beating against the hand that was choking her neck and struggled with all her might.

She only realized at this moment how irrational it was for her to have come up the mountain!

Stars appeared before her eyes, and burst of blood-red exploded in her vision!

She let go of his arm, pulled out the rose red gold magnolia hairpin from her head, and aimed it at his chest, stabbing him without any hesitation!

“Ah…”

Although Liu Sisi showed no mercy, the thick purple mink fur on his body blocked much of the force, causing him to feel pain in his chest. Instinctively, his grip loosened a bit.

Liu Sisi took this opportunity to struggle and breathe in two lungfuls of fresh air.

However, her relief was clearly too soon!

As soon as he reacted, he lifted his right hand and forcefully pulled the hairpin from his chest. The sharp edge of the dagger in his hand kept shaking near her chest, almost stabbing into her abdomen several times. Liu Sisi was so frightened that she didn’t dare struggle anymore.

There seemed to be a moment of clarity on his face as he stared at Liu Sisi’s face intently.

“Xin’er? No, you’re Si’er…”

“Let go…cough, cough! Let me go…”

Liu Sisi tried to make a last effort, but her vision had already blurred, and her mind was buzzing with noise.

“You deserve to die! Just like your mother, that cheap woman, you actually dare try to kill me! You all deserve to die, all of you who try to harm me deserve to die!”

Instead of loosening his grip, he tightened it even harder, as if he wanted to directly snap her neck, leaving her no room to struggle.

Her eyes bulged, and her vision turned blood-red once more!

She futilely struggled, and suddenly a commotion sounded in her ears, followed by her sinking into darkness.

It felt like a long time had passed, or perhaps just an instant, when her vision suddenly brightened!

Just like someone parting the clouds to reveal the moon, Di Yelei’s figure appeared in front of her eyes. He was standing opposite her, reaching out his hand.

“Sisi, come on, come to me, quickly! Be good!”

But before Liu Sisi could step forward, Di Yelei’s figure slowly disappeared into the fog, and another figure emerged in front of her.

“Sisi, you’re back! Grandpa missed you so much. Where have you been? Hurry, come to Grandpa.”

“Grandpa…”

Liu Sisi’s mouth curled up in a strange smile, instinctively chuckling, and her eyes slowly closed.

“Sisi! Sisi, wake up! Wake up quickly! Wake up!”

There were constant voices calling her by her ears, and she was so tired and wanted to sleep. But that voice persisted in calling her, making her unable to bear it and opened her eyes.

“Dad, Mom! Why are you here? How did you get here?”

Liu Sisi’s heart leaped for joy!

It had been so many years since she had seen her parents. How many times had she longed to see them again during countless midnight dreams, even if it was just a glimpse in a dream?!

But this long-held wish, today, finally came true! How could she not be excited!

“Dad, Mom! How are you all?”

“Good, Sisi, we’re all good, but you shouldn’t be here. Go back quickly. Hurry, go!” Her mother urged her repeatedly.

Her father’s face was serious, “Sisi! Go now, or you won’t be able to leave!”

“But Dad, Mom… Mom, I miss you…”

Liu Sisi tried to stretch out her hand, intending to grab her mother’s hand, but she missed it by a hair’s breadth, just a little bit. Her hand and her mother’s fingertips missed each other, and her body gradually drifted farther and farther away, with her parents’ figures gradually turning into mist.

“Dad, Mom, don’t leave…”

She cried out, feeling her throat burning with pain one wave after another!

She couldn’t help but move her head slightly, instinctively expressing her most urgent need.

“Water, water…”

It seemed that a trickle of water flowed into her mouth, passed through her esophagus, and flowed into her stomach, allowing her to once again sink into a dream.

As soon as she entered the dream, she fell into that nightmare again.

This time, the dream was different. She transformed into the baby in the woman’s arms.

She watched helplessly as history unfolded once more before her eyes, unable to stop the dagger from plunging into the woman’s heart. Along with the dagger’s entry, the woman’s fresh blood splattered all over her face!

The strong, pungent smell of blood made her cry out in discomfort. The boiling blood seemed to stick to her face like glue. She instinctively raised her hand to wipe it, but she couldn’t wipe it all off…

Blood! Bright, bright red blood!

As the woman’s words kept falling from her mouth, along with the blood from her heart, the little girl was soaked in blood, completely turning her into a blood-stained figure!

“Concubine Princess Mother… Concubine Princess Mother…”

The little girl’s unclear words called out, but couldn’t bring back the woman’s gradually fading life!

“Ah! -Cough, cough, cough!”

Liu Sisi suddenly sat up from the ground and let out a series of violent coughs.

“Sisi, Sisi, you’re awake? How are you feeling? Don’t try to talk. Your throat’s hurt. You’ll need to rest for a few days.”

Di Yelei’s voice was both caring and slightly reproachful as it sounded beside her.

“Ye Lei…”

Liu Sisi subconsciously reached out to touch him, was she still in a dream?

Di Yelei quickly grabbed her hand and placed it on his face, continuously rubbing her with his rough beard stubble.

“It’s me, Sisi! I’m here, I’m by your side.”
