Chapter 2395: Lingshu Awakens

Zhu Yanyi sighed. "To be honest, I have Aohan, so I know what love is. Because I have tasted it, I understand its truth. As for the Silver Fox, although she says she cannot leave Lingshu, I feel this affection isn't that deep."

Ouyang Mingyue was slightly stunned. "If that is the case, the chance of the Silver Fox becoming the Demon Emperor will increase."

Chai Yekuang interjected, "Actually, I don't think how the Silver Fox is matters much. He isn't even an immortal yet. It’s not easy to become a Demon Emperor without being an immortal. However…"

Chai Yekuang looked at Zhu Yanyi. "If the Silver Fox doesn't have deep feelings for Lingshu, her outcome might not be good. She might have to reincarnate as a human again."

Zhu Yanyi smiled lightly. "If she understands, reincarnation isn't a bad thing. With Aohan and me, although I forgot our sisterly bond, we were sisters in a past life. I can take care of her then and give her a happy future, right, Aohan?"

Yan Aohan nodded. "The issue now isn't Lingshu reincarnating, but the relationship between the Silver Fox and Lingshu. As the Immortal Emperor said, the Silver Fox will eventually realize his feeling for Lingshu isn't love, but responsibility. In that case, the Silver Fox becoming an immortal is just an opportunity, while Lingshu becoming human is a turning point."

Hearing Yan Aohan’s words, the other three looked at him.

Seeing their gaze, Yan Aohan smiled helplessly. "Don't look at me like that. You’re making me nervous."

Zhu Yanyi laughed. "You should explain this opportunity and turning point better."

Yan Aohan looked at Zhu Yanyi, pondered for a moment, and said, "The Silver Fox’s opportunity lies in trust. Lingshu’s turning point depends on the Silver Fox’s opportunity."

Zhu Yanyi still didn’t understand, but Ouyang Mingyue did. "Once the Silver Fox believes there is love in the human world and understands the true meaning of love, that will be when Lingshu reincarnates. To make the Silver Fox understand, Lingshu might have to pay with her life."

Ouyang Mingyue looked at Zhu Yanyi.

Zhu Yanyi stared blankly. "Why are you looking at me? I’m not Lingshu."

"Are you not sad or heartbroken?" Ouyang Mingyue asked.

"Lingshu is my sister from a past life. I am curious because I haven’t met her in this life. But to say I am sad or heartbroken? Honestly, I am not. In this life, if I speak of my sister, it is only Zhu Yanli. If someone harms her, I would be sad, angry, and upset. But regarding Lingshu, honestly, I don’t feel that way right now. You can call me cold-blooded, but I don’t want to lie."

Zhu Yanyi spoke from the heart. To her, "past life" was vague. She only knew two sisters in her heart: Zhu Yanli. Asking her to suddenly accept a stranger as her sister was difficult. Besides, Zhu Yanyi had already stated that if Lingshu reincarnated, she would make arrangements, as she was the mistress of the Underworld.

Yan Aohan understood and looked at Zhu Yanyi, then said to Ouyang Mingyue, "Don’t overthink it. My wife’s heart is clear. But, wife…" Yan Aohan continued, "If there is a problem with Lingshu, you should go. It is the last karmic tie between you and her."

Zhu Yanyi nodded. "Just remind me later. Besides, I don’t think it’s time to go to the Demon Tribe now, is it?"

Chai Yekuang agreed. "Exactly. Since things are fine now, let’s not worry about it for a while."

Yan Aohan also agreed. "It is the Silver Fox’s emotional tribulation. It has little to do with us. Whether he passes it is his own business."

Meanwhile, in the Fox Tribe, the Silver Fox watched Lingshu wake up, his eyes filled with joy. After years of waiting, there was finally a result.

Lingshu opened her eyes and looked at the Silver Fox, her gaze gentle. "Qianhuan, thank you for your trouble these years."

The Silver Fox shook his head slightly. "It’s good that you woke up. I was waiting for you. Also, we must cultivate hard. Your younger sister is already in the Immortal Realm."

"Suwen?" Lingshu remembered her sister jumping into the medicine furnace.

"Yes. Your sister has reincarnated and is now the Yan Empress. However, even as Empress, she must cultivate to truly take her position. Fortunately, she has good talent and has already become an immortal. The pill that woke you was also refined by her." The Silver Fox smiled at Lingshu.

Hearing this, Lingshu’s face brightened. "I always knew my sister was extraordinary. But regarding the Yan Emperor, does she treat her well?"

"Don’t ask if she treats her well. The Yan Emperor gives her heart and soul to your sister. I’ve suffered under them as a couple several times," the Silver Fox said with a grin.

Lingshu smiled lightly. "That is good."

She was naturally happy that her sister had such a good归宿 (destination/future).

The Silver Fox helped Lingshu sit up. "The Soul-Returning Pill worked well. Your body is recovering nicely. So, you must start cultivating now." He continued, "I have tempered your body to have the best demon-human aptitude. We will cultivate together and ascend to the Immortal Realm together."

"Okay." Lingshu nodded and agreed. She also wanted to see her sister.

Zhu Yanyi did not inquire about the Fox Tribe. For her, Yan Aohan’s return was the happiest thing.

"You have returned to your position. When do you plan to hold the inauguration ceremony?" Ouyang Mingyue asked.

Yan Aohan smiled faintly. "Wait until my wife returns to her position. We will hold it together then."

Ouyang Mingyue understood. Since Yan Aohan had returned, many would want to be near him. Many true gods would send daughters from their families to secure their future.

Yan Aohan would not accept them, but she didn’t want to deal with such troubles repeatedly. It was better to wait for Zhu Yanyi’s return and hold the ceremony together. This way, any schemes would fail.

Chai Yekuang sneered. "I don’t understand what the Black Emperor and you are thinking. Just issue an order: partners must be one-to-one. No polygamy or polyandry. That would solve it."

"Wife, you know, among cultivators, the strong are respected," Ouyang Mingyue said. She understood Chai Yekuang’s point, but some people’s thoughts were hard to change.
