Chapter 440: Confession 4

“Want to know the reason?” A faint smile tugged at the corner of Ye Leng’an’s lips. However, her words were as cold as frost. “Because I’ve been reborn.”

With that, Ye Lengan gestured with one hand, and the flames immediately enveloped the radiant sphere.

Before Zhongyu Zhenhua could comprehend what was happening, he felt a deep-seated pain from within his soul. This was the first time he had experienced pain in years. Perhaps he had felt pain when he was alive, but since becoming a remnant soul, he had never known such agony.

However, now, as the flames surrounded him, he felt a pain emanating from the depths of his soul, a pain beyond words. It was as if he were on the brink of vanishing.

The entire office was filled with Zhongyu Zhenhua’s anguished cries.

Initially, the cries were loud, but they gradually weakened. Then, they disappeared entirely, and the flames vanished along with them.

When the flames dissipated, the luminous aura that had been enveloped was gone as well.

The disappearance of Zhongyu Zhenhua provided a sense of relief to Ye

Lengan. While Ye Xiyuan continued to be lively, the absence of Zhongyu Zhenhua, one of the culprits, lightened her burden, as if she had let go of something.

“Aren’t you curious about what just happened?” Ye Lengan didn’t look at Huangfu Ruiling and spoke directly. “Now is your chance to ask whatever you want!”

Ye Lengan had been frank when speaking earlier, so she had no reason to withhold anything now. If Huangfu Ruiling wanted to know, she would tell him.

“Do you want to tell me?” Huangfu Ruiling responded with a question.

He had placed the decision in Ye Leng’an’s hands. If she chose to share, he would inquire further. If not, he would refrain from asking. He didn’t need to know everything; as long as Ye Lengan stayed by his side, that was sufficient.

Upon hearing Huangfu Ruiling’s words, Ye Lengan turned her head and gazed at him. Then, she tilted her head and smiled. “Since I’m in a rather good mood today, I’ll tell you. But make sure you think carefully because once I spill the beans, there’s no turning back!”

Huangfu Ruiling nodded, and under Ye Leng’an’s gaze, he inquired, “Alright, what do you mean by ‘rebirth?”

He was aware of the term’s meaning, but he wanted to know the experiences that Ye Lengan had undergone, for rebirth implied a brush with death.

Contemplating this, he felt a dull ache in his chest. He couldn’t fathom the life-and-death trials Ye Lengan had faced. Moreover, he couldn’t envision a world without Ye Lengan.

“In fact, 1 haven’t just been reborn once; I’ve been reborn twice.” Ye Leng’an’s tone was casual, concealing the gravity of the two life-and-death ordeals she’d undergone. “l believe you’ve conducted an investigation into my past. You might have noticed that I changed suddenly. But the truth is, I didn’t change; I was reborn.”

Subsequently, Ye Lengan divulged her entire history, recounting her tragic death in her first life due to Ye Xiyuan’s machinations and her subsequent demise during the cultivation world’s tribulation before returning to this life. She shared every detail without reservation.

Upon revealing her story, she experienced a sense of liberation, as if she had shed a burden that had weighed heavily on her heart.

Unbeknownst to her, right after she finished narrating, she found herself enveloped in a warm embrace. She struggled briefly to understand Huangfu Ruilings intentions.

“Don’t move.” Huangfu Ruilings voice carried a tinge of restrained heartache and an almost imperceptible undercurrent of fear. “Let me hold you for a while; it will be alright.”

His heart could only find solace when he held her close, sensing her warmth. It was as if this were the only way to assure himself that the person in his embrace remained alive and well in this world.

In this moment, he finally comprehended the depth of Ye Leng’an’s animosity toward Ye Xiyuan. It was because Ye Lengan had been killed by Ye Xiyuan once.

Not just once, but twice, all because of Ye Xiyuan, Ye Lengan couldn’t successfully transcend the tribulation.

Twice. The person he cherished the most had endured two deaths. How excruciating that must have been!

Throughout his life, he had never experienced fear. Regardless of the dangers he had faced, even in situations where he thought he might not survive, he had never known fear.

But now, he was genuinely afraid. Afraid of losing Ye Lengan. Afraid that upon waking, everything would be revealed as a dream, and Ye Lengan would no longer exist in this world.

If that were the case, he believed he might go mad.

He was like a child who had never tasted candy before but had now savored its sweetness. If fate were to take away this sweetness, he feared he might truly go mad and be unable to suppress the urge to shatter the entire world.

Sensing Huangfu Ruilings emotions at this moment, Ye Lengan reached out and encircled his waist. She spoke in a soothing tone, “I’m still here! Everything in the past is behind us. I’m alive and well, right here in your arms.”

“You won’t leave me, will you?” Huangfu Ruiling’s tone was slightly obstinate as if he was determined to secure a promise. “Promise me that you’ll never leave me.’

“Alright.” Ye Leng’an’s tone carried indulgence. She smiled and replied, “As long as you don’t betray me, I’ll never leave you.”

If you didn’t leave, I wouldn’t abandon you.

Huangfu Ruiling didn’t say anything more, but the tightening of his arms conveyed his commitment. Even though Ye Lengan felt somewhat uncomfortable, she made no effort to resist. Resting in Huangfu Ruilings embrace, she understood the gravity of the situation and recognized the need to give him time to come to terms with it.

As a result, she remained silent and still, nestled in Huangfu Ruiling’s arms..
