Wei Yingyue suddenly fell silent, chanically scooping porridge from the bowl, taking a sip, then continuing to scoop.
Liang Xinyue put down her spoon and signed to you, "When will brother co back?"
"In a few days if he’s quick, several months if he’s slow."
Actually, you really want to tell Wei Yingyue your true identity, but for so reason, just when the words reach your tongue, you swallow them back down.
To you, the identity of Li Tian is entirely detached from the mundane world.
When you are Li Tian, you can completely disregard the world’s gaze and focus solely on your own business. You do whatever you want without being constrained by anyone, nor do you feel any psychological burden, because this identity is a lone wolf.
If you confess to Wei Yingyue, it would an you have no secrets left in this world.
Moreover, what’s most important is that you do not want to leave too many ties behind.
Li Tian as a person should have already died before you acquired these mories; he is kept alive to fulfill Ghost Hand’s wish, but unexpectedly it has led to this series of events.
From a personal perspective, you do not dislike spending ti with Wei Yingyue; on the contrary, you find it harmonious and ti seems to pass particularly quickly when you’re with her.
Additionally, Wei Yingyue and Wu Qiyi are only half alike, making you even start to suspect that she and Wu Qiyi might be the sa person, but with their souls split.
However, this is just speculation, and until you find definite evidence, you won’t jump to conclusions.
In the Reincarnation World, dating people within it is extrely dangerous because it draws you into an emotional vortex from which you cannot extricate yourself. At that point, you will be trapped in an extrely difficult predicant, which is the terrifying part of the Reincarnation World.
Wei Yingyue’s personality suits you very well; even if both of you sit silently on the sofa, the air seems to be filled with a serene and fitting atmosphere, comforting and peaceful.
But you know that Li Tian must not "live" too long; behind this identity lies too many things, hidden with a secret full of danger. Once this secret is uncovered, everyone related to Li Tian will die, including Li Tian himself.
This departure should be Li Tian’s last goodbye to this world.
From the perspective of Li Tian as a character, you feel there is not much regret left. You’ve carried out Liang Zi’s instructions well, and now Liang Xinyue has the support of Wei Yingyue’s family, you trust her congenital voice impedint will be cured, and her life will begin a new Chapter.
As for Wei Yingyue, you do not dare to think too much, because thinking too much will beco a burden for you.
And your explanation to yourself is that future matters will be dealt with in the future.
Seeing Wei Yingyue lowering her head in silence, you slowly get up and enter your own room.
Not long after, you co out with a backpack, standing beside Wei Yingyue, you take a small knife with a knife sheath woven from vines out of your pocket and place it on the table beside Wei Yingyue.
In a very plain tone, you say, "I don’t know if there’s a chance to co back after leaving this ti. This knife was left to by my master, consider it a keepsake."
Wei Yingyue remains silent, at this mont, she doesn’t know what to say.
She knows she cannot hold you back, nor can she say in what identity to keep you, she’s confused, her heart in chaos.
You squat down towards Liang Xinyue, holding Liang Xinyue’s little hands gently and say, "Xiao Xiao, in the future, make sure to listen to elder sister and mom and dad."
Even though there are many things to say, you cannot bring yourself to speak, carrying a backpack, you leave Wei Yingyue’s house with tears fully welled in Liang Xinyue’s eyes.
At the mont you open the door, Wei Yingyue’s voice suddenly cos from behind: "No matter what, I’ll wait for you... wait for you, co back... to make breakfast for Xiao Xiao and... for ."
Your body pauses, you turn back and give Wei Yingyue a slight smile, then step into the morning sunlight.
The door closes, and the spacious villa suddenly feels emptier, as if sothing is missing in an instant, leaving an emptiness in the heart.
As Wei Yingyue’s mind is blurry, Liang Xinyue gently tugs at Wei Yingyue’s sleeve, signing to Wei Ying Yue: "Older sister, brother will definitely co back, definitely."
After leaving Wei Yingyue’s villa, you walk quickly, and soon arrive at your apartnt unit. Closing the door, you take out a phone from your pocket and dial Du Ping’an’s private number.
"Hello." Du Ping’an’s gravelly voice cos on the line.
"Commander, I want to permanently erase the code na Li Tian."
There’s a noticeable pause on the line, then a deep voice asks, "I want to know why?"
"Because Li Tian has another identity. Although those people don’t know this for now, my intuition tells that soday they will find . Then, my family and friends will be implicated." After much consideration, you decide to be candid with Du Ping’an.
"Who are they?"
"An organization that no governnt in the world wants to face directly." You pause, then say in a very low tone, "Li Tian had another code na during those three years, Death God."
Du Ping’an on the other end of the line is completely stunned. Although there has been intelligence suggesting that after Li Tian’s disappearance, he has been seen in the Middle East, North Africa, and Northern Europe, the one Du Ping’an speculated Li Tian might have joined a certain organization. Yet he never expected Li Tian to be the Death God!
Death God is a global massive organization, a high-level executor of the Netherworld.
Netherworld, has twelve Death Gods, each Death God oversees an area with hundreds to thousands of followers, these are the visible fighting force of the Netherworld.
As a senior national officer, Du Ping’an knows so secrets, Netherworld’s real strength is far beyond this, behind them is sothing extrely terrifying, yes, those are not people, but things!
In your mory, knowing this is precisely what drove you to resolutely choose to leave, even at the risk of your life.
The two did not discuss much information, because many things only need mutual understanding.
Having cald himself, Du Ping’an says to you, "From now on, in half a month, Li Tian will die during a mission."
"Thank you." With Du Ping’an’s words, you feel greatly relieved.
"But, you still have to be cautious, because their power is too vast and targeted. Continue to be low-key in the future."
You suddenly change your tone, your originally low voice turns into a casual and high-pitched voice, "Oh, Grandpa Du, just rest assured. I am the direct disciple of Tianzhu and Phoenix. Although I don’t have superpowers, I have great self-confidence in the Camouflage Technique."
Hearing your words, Du Ping’an laughs.
After hanging up, you imdiately turn off the phone. Then you crush it into pieces and place it in the garbage, ready to pack it.
You reach up and peel off a human skin mask thin like cicada wings from your face, letting out a long breath. Changing into very ordinary clothes, carrying two bags of trash, you swagger downstairs.
