Chapter 1937
Seeing Zhu Yanyi’s expression, Yan Aohan smiled helplessly. "Wife, I need time to tell you, don't I? Look, whenever I have a moment, I tell you, right?"
Zhu Yanyi made a funny face at her. "Okay, I forgive you."
They both laughed.
After the laughter faded, Yan Aohan continued, "When will the Evil Demon channel open?"
She was asking Zhan Diting.
Zhan Diting replied quickly, "Midnight tonight. The evil demons will enter meditation to absorb demonic energy. That is the best time to open the channel."
Yan Aohan nodded. "In that case, we open the channel at midnight and go in. I will leave a character to help you suppress the overflow of demonic energy in the channel."
Then he turned to Yi Yunfei and the others. "After you three reunite, come back directly. Do not worry about us. Remember this."
"Yes, we have noted it." Yi Yunfei and the others nodded. Their anxious hearts calmed down. With Yan Aohan accompanying them, they had no fear of danger.
"Alright, rest here while we have time. We will set out for the evil demons' interior tonight." Yan Aohan took Zhu Yanyi’s hand. "Wife, let’s go. We have some time for a date."
(⊙o⊙)… Was this going to torture single dogs to death?
Yan Aohan didn’t care about their thoughts. He simply pulled Zhu Yanyi away. This time belonged to him and his wife, and he claimed it with霸道 (domineering) certainty.
Seeing this, Zhan Diting called out to the other three. "Don’t take it to heart. My boss and Little Sister-in-law have been apart for a long time. He just wants some private time."
"Actually, we didn’t expect Lord Yan to be like this," Ouyang Tianyun said slowly. "I thought he would be arrogant, cold, and ruthless."
Zhan Diting paused, then said, "Before she found Little Sister-in-law, she was indeed ruthless, arrogant, cold, and indifferent. For her, life seemed to have no purpose other than her work. But since finding her, she has changed a lot. Perhaps she changed her."
"Senior, tell us the story of Lord Yan," Ouyang Tianyun said, looking curious.
Zhan Diting thought for a moment, his eyes twinkling. "I will tell you some things that are not secrets." Then he began to recount Yan Aohan’s story.
Meanwhile, Yan Aohan led Zhu Yanyi out of the cave and up the mountain peak, looking out at the world beyond.
"Was this mountain once hidden by a shielding array? Senior Sister Hongmei said they never saw this mountain when coming from this direction before," Zhu Yanyi asked curiously.
Yan Aohan smiled slightly. "It is possible that Zhan Diting was bored and hid it."
Then she looked at Zhu Yanyi. "Ani, I missed you very much."
Zhu Yanyi’s face warmed slightly at her sudden confession. "I missed you too. But we had to separate temporarily for our future."
Yan Aohan hummed and pulled her into his arms. "Ani, when I went to the mortal realm, I discussed it with your parents and my parents. They all agreed that we will marry after you return at twenty-five."
A light appeared on Yan Aohan’s face. After years of guarding, he finally had something to look forward to. It was no wonder he was so excited.
Seeing her expression, Zhu Yanyi smiled softly. "My father didn’t make things difficult for you."
"No. He knows my character and trusts me. Although we are not married yet, you are rarely at home, so he doesn’t pressure me. He is just reluctant to let you go," Yan Aohan laughed lightly. "I fear that on our wedding day, your father might make Taishu Laoqi make things difficult for me."
"Don’t talk nonsense. Brother-in-law is not like that," Zhu Yanyi said with a grin. "Besides, would the mighty Yanluo of the Capital fear my brother-in-law’s difficulties?"
"I am not afraid of Taishu Laoqi’s difficulties, but I am afraid of your brother-in-law’s. Because he is your family, I fear making you distressed for their sake."
Zhu Yanyi understood the meaning in his words. She buried her head in Yan Aohan’s arms. "Actually, in my past life, I never thought I would be so happy. I often feel like this life is a dream."
Yan Aohan grabbed Zhu Yanyi’s hand and bit it lightly. Zhu Yanyi cried out in pain and glared at him. "Why did you bite me?"
Yan Aohan laughed. "If it hurts, it is not a dream."
Zhu Yanyi laughed too. "I know it is not a dream, but I sometimes fear losing it. So I work hard every day and cherish every moment. No one wants to waste such days."
Yan Aohan nodded slightly. "So, after the Chaos Fragment matter is resolved, I will take you through another channel to the Underworld’s Reincarnation Pool."
"Hmm?" Zhu Yanyi looked at her in confusion. What did going to the Reincarnation Pool have to do with their current topic? Even with her intelligence, she couldn’t figure it out.
Seeing her confused look, Yan Aohan smiled. "You remember your previous life, but you don’t know that you had another life before that. In that life, you were also a healer. To save the world and destroy the evil demons, you used your half-step Medical God cultivation to become medicine and died."
"When I arrived, the only thing I could do was collect your soul and let you reincarnate. However, because your soul was consumed too much, and people from the evil demon side interfered, we missed each other for many lives."
"Your fate in the last life could have been close to now. But because I found you one step too late, you had already died. We could only reunite in the Underworld after your death. Fortunately, I found your soul. Using my divine power and your karmic merit, I allowed you to live another life."
Although Zhu Yanyi didn’t know the details, hearing Yan Aohan’s simple explanation, she knew the events must have been very tragic.
"Did these events cause you great pain?" Zhu Yanyi asked, looking at her with concern. From her eyes, she could see the heartache she felt about what happened.
Yan Aohan smiled lightly. "In the past, every time I recalled it, I naturally felt heartache. But since finding you and falling in love with you again, I feel no pain. Instead, I am grateful for that tragic experience. Otherwise, I would not have found the you of today."
