After a long silence, Ruoning finally spoke in a low, hoarse voice with a crying tone.
About half an hour ago, Ruoning had still hated the butterfly lady with gnashing teeth.
Now that her emotions had changed so dramatically, Yino didn’t find it strange at all.
Because she had instantly inherited the butterfly spirit’s remnant soul after all.
Ruoning could personally feel Dia’s emotions. She knew Dia had no malicious intent from beginning to end. Besides guilt over the misunderstanding, she would naturally be sowhat drawn into Dia’s lancholy and desolate emotions due to soul resonance.
"Yino... you know..."
"I haven’t even seen the end of this eighteen-layer illusion realm’s story, but now it seems like I’ve already been spoiled with the most tragic ending..."
"Can you understand how heartbreaking this feeling is?"
Ruoning pursed her small mouth, halfway through speaking, then turned her purple-tinged blue eyes toward Yino.
Yino thought for a mont, then smiled gently:
"At least, as witnesses to the Liuli Illusion Realm, in the distant future, we won’t let this sad story repeat itself..."
"This is the attitude lady Dia wishes for us to face life with, isn’t it?"
Saying this, he proactively extended his palm toward her.
Ruoning bit her cherry lips lightly and couldn’t help but smile. Her already pure and beautiful face, now adorned with that touch of purple charm, appeared even more captivating with every frown and smile.
"That’s right! With Sister Dia helping unlock my destiny, once we leave this illusion realm, we can definitely beat those old fools in my family!"
"I’ll make all those who looked down on us see clearly... Those trashy arranged marriages aren’t worthy of this young lady!"
"I’ll also make them all see clearly that I have excellent taste! The man I chose is truly one in ten thousand!"
"If I hadn’t had good taste and insisted on going to Azure Forest to pester you back then, without you guiding , I alone wouldn’t have known how to break through destiny in the Liuli Illusion Realm!"
"Husband, don’t you think so~?"
When she said the last sentence, Ruoning directly followed the hand-holding motion, tiptoeing and turning several tis before climbing into Yino’s embrace.
The spotlight above the ruins fell on both of them, like a dance belonging only to their world of two.
Yino wasn’t skilled at dancing, but Ruoning’s body was too soft. She pulled Yino along and sohow naturally ca to an embracing finale pose.
Yino felt that she had sowhat inherited artistic genes from the butterfly lady.
"Yes, why did your mouth suddenly beco so sweet..."
"I don’t know. I just feel warm and blissful in my heart, happier than before. I want to treasure every mont with you. I want to record all of this. I don’t want to waste every minute and second of this happiness with other emotions..."
She pulled Yino’s hand, walking and jumping like a little rabbit.
Yino had never seen Ruoning so lively and talkative. Even in the ga, when she inherited the butterfly’s soul, she had never had such changes.
"I think you might be influenced by Dia’s soul in your body..."
"So what? Sister Dia is my past-life teacher! She understands better than I do how to be romantic with one’s beloved, and I’m also willing to be a bit more clingy with you~~"
The girl squinted with purple eye shadow and smiled sweetly, like a little cat rubbing her dimpled cheek against Yino’s chest. "Otherwise, without Sister Dia’s soul influence, with just my usual personality, I couldn’t bring myself to be so uninhibited and affectionate with you!"
"Alright... that makes sense too."
"Speaking of which, where do we go next?"
"If I rember correctly, this ancient ruin has only one exit. When we go out, we’ll directly skip layers twelve and thirteen and continue the original storyline from the fourteenth layer..."
...
"You’re saying you two waited here for two hours and didn’t see a single person pass by?"
On the twelfth layer’s Illusion palace, the Crimson Prince had begun settling accounts with Xumo and Ye Huai.
After calculating back and forth, they ended up with confused faces all around.
For a mont, Xumo and the Crimson Prince stared at each other, and the atmosphere beca sowhat awkward.
He suspected Xumo was colluding with Yino, while Xumo also suspected he and Ye Huai were colluding with Yino...
No one trusted anyone, but no one had evidence, it was all just mutual suspicion.
"In this young master’s opinion, too much ti has been wasted. Waiting here probably won’t yield any results."
"You two, follow back to the divine palace. The palace master has surveillance of the entire secret realm there. Let’s directly check where Yino and Ruoning ran off to!"
....
Damn...
Why does this illusion feel strangely quiet and abnormal?
These two people’s expressions are off. I always feel like they have ghosts in their hearts...
No good, I need to think of a way to take action first.
On the thirteenth floor of the Liuli Illusion, the Crimson Prince walked at the front of the group. As batch after batch of monsters were defeated, he gradually felt a cold malice coming from behind.
Through the reflection of the glazed mirror surfaces on the walls, he could vaguely see that Xumo and Ye Huai’s eyes contained hidden mysteries.
"Speaking of which, the fourteenth floor’s illusion requires testing teamwork abilities."
"There are three paths ahead in total. One path leads to the guardian’s hall, while the other two require companions to go and decipher the seals. Once the seals are broken, the guardian’s strength will be greatly reduced... Otherwise, if the three of us don’t work together wholeheartedly, none of us can leave this fourteenth floor."
Walking toward the corridor leading to the fourteenth floor, the Crimson Prince began speaking earnestly.
He alone monopolized six golden collectibles, making speed-running this Liuli Illusion almost effortless.
But the problem was, now that Yino had disappeared mysteriously, the Crimson Prince and the duo of Xumo and Ye Huai were mutually suspicious, with no one trusting anyone. In this environnt where everyone was in danger, the Crimson Prince absolutely couldn’t openly display the true power of his six collectibles. Otherwise, if Xumo and Ye Huai learned that the Crimson Prince had initially deceived them, they would undoubtedly beco even more suspicious of whether the Crimson Prince was hiding other sches.
So he thought of this strategy.
