Chapter 2482

"Empress Yan," the Silver Fox looked at Zhu Yanyi with disapproval. "How can you…"

Zhu Yanyi interrupted her reprimand, speaking calmly. "You might think hiding the truth is good, but I disagree. We are all medical cultivators. Even though Ling Shu is now a demon-human hybrid, she was trained as a healer. She understands her body better than any of us. Even if I didn't tell her, she knows her condition."

"Yes, Qianhuan," Ling Shu spoke up herself.

"I thought I would never wake up, but I did. The moment I opened my eyes, I felt something was wrong with my body. Although it was just a possession, I wasn't in control when I woke up. So, this body can no longer truly merge with my soul.

To use a metaphor, it’s like a flower picked from a tree. Even if you keep it in a vase, its life force fades every day. A flower on the tree withers and returns to the roots. But a picked flower just dies. It cannot go back. That is my situation."

Ling Shu paused slightly. "But at least I am alive now. Even if I only have four years left, it is enough to leave behind beautiful memories."

Ling Shu’s words did not improve the Silver Fox’s mood. Although he had never truly loved a woman, family bonds still existed. He could not bear to watch Ling Shu wither and die.

She cherished this family tie. So, while she still had her, she wanted to hold her close.

Ling Shu looked at the Silver Fox. "Qianhuan, I have four years left. In those four years, can you take me to see the world?"

"See the world?" The Silver Fox was stunned. "You only want to walk around?"

"What do you mean 'only'?" Ling Shu smiled. "I actually had this idea when I was young. That is why I traveled the martial world with Su Wen.

Unfortunately, traveling the martial world until now has brought many hardships. I rarely felt free and happy.

Now that my life is limited to four years, I must plan well. Instead of lying in bed or staying in one place to recover, I would rather see different places. Last time, Su Wen and I had poor martial skills, so we faced many difficulties. This time, I want you to take me out. I can see the world and leave beautiful memories. Of course, I also hope Brother and Su Wen will join us. It is rare for our siblings to gather properly."

Undoubtedly, Ling Shu was very open-minded. For her, death was just death. It did not matter, as long as she left no regrets.

Zhu Yanyi looked at Ling Shu, then said, "I was planning to go out recently anyway. Husband, let’s go out and walk around."

"Okay." Yan Aohan was the type of man who always listened to his wife. Since his wife wanted to go out, they would go out.

Ouyang Tianyun shrugged. "Going out is good too. There are more patients outside. Traveling can increase our experience."

Once the decision was made, they packed up. Zhu Yanyi activated all the formation arrays here. Then, she placed a sign at the door. It roughly said: The owner has gone out to enjoy the festivities and will return in a few days. Do not look for us while we are away.

Ling Shu smiled at Zhu Yanyi’s casual attitude. "I wonder if it is because of reincarnation. I find you seem more casual now."

Zhu Yanyi smiled slightly. "Being casual is a good thing. Why worry too much about everything? I am a heart cultivator. Following my heart is my cultivation process. Since that is the case, there is no need to be surprised."

"How have you been these years?" Ling Shu asked. Her clear eyes held faint concern. Even though Zhu Yanyi was the reincarnation of Su Wen, she was still considered a younger sister to Ling Shu.

Zhu Yanyi laughed. "Very well. I have parents who love their children and siblings who cherish family. Actually, I am living quite well, except for lacking memories of my past life."

Ling Shu nodded slightly, indicating she understood. Happiness was what mattered. With that, she had no other regrets. She only hoped her future would also be happy and smooth.

Yan Aohan released the cloud vehicle. Everyone boarded it, and they moved slowly, like a cloud pushed by the wind. No one below would notice them.

Zhu Yanyi took out Silver Flower Fruits and distributed them to everyone. The Silver Fox looked at the fruit in his hand, amused and exasperated. "This seems to be what I gave you."

"Yes, you gave it to me. But so what? Once given to me, it is mine," Zhu Yanyi said with a grin.

The Silver Fox raised an eyebrow. "So being the host is convenient for you. You don’t even need to use your own things. You can just use others’ things to make do."

"If I am just making do, you can choose not to eat it," Zhu Yanyi took a bite of the Silver Flower Fruit, looking as if to say, "Try not eating it if you can."

Seeing this, Ling Shu chuckled softly. She also took a bite of the Silver Flower Fruit and said, "Actually, I find that life like this is not bad. At least it is leisurely."

"When a person’s mood is good, life is leisurely anywhere," Zhu Yanyi answered with a grin.

Ling Shu said, "Yanyi, I will call you Yanyi. Because I know you are no longer Su Wen."

"En." Zhu Yanyi nodded. "I said long ago that I am Yanyi. See, Senior Brother Tianyun also only calls me Junior Sister."

Ling Shu was a smart person. She naturally understood Zhu Yanyi’s words. Although they could not be biological sisters again, nor relive their previous sisterly affection, spending time together would still foster other feelings. Even without blood ties, family love could still grow.

Ling Shu lay on the recliner, looking at the half-eaten Silver Flower Fruit in her hand. "Yanyi, have you ever had regrets?"

"Regrets? Yes, I have," Zhu Yanyi nodded seriously. "For example, I regret never accompanying my parents properly. I regret not staying by my children’s sides to watch them grow up. I regret many things.

But life is like that. Often, a life has both beauty and regrets. No one’s life can be perfect. Actually, I think imperfect beauty is true beauty."

Zhu Yanyi looked at Ling Shu as she spoke. "To live clearly, one must first understand how to grasp the present. The past is gone. Why think about it more? Just living well in the present is enough."

After speaking, Zhu Yanyi looked at Ling Shu again. "I believe you think the same way. Grasping the present and cherishing the present is the life we should pursue now. The past is enough to leave behind beautiful memories."
