25: After he left, she flew away

"Husband, husband—!!"

By the time Wu Yinyao arrived, the muscular figure had completely dissipated, leaving only a simple, clumsy wooden sword, which, having lost its owner, fell freely due to gravity.

Wu Yinyao caught it and held it in her hand. Tears streamed down, completely soaking the sword's blade.

The wooden sword had no emotions and didn't know how to comfort her, so it just absorbed all her falling tears into itself.

As if embracing her lover, Wu Yinyao held the wooden sword, allowing herself to drift in the air, going with the flow.

The Demon Seed was dead.

There was no chance for it to reincarnate again.

He was also gone.

There was no chance to meet again.

This life, these three lives, eternal life.

Wu Yinyao would never find her husband, her Meng Yun, again.

Perhaps, in some parallel time and space, she and her husband could live a stable and happy life together.

Perhaps…

Perhaps.

No, perhaps it wasn't just 'perhaps.'

Wu Yinyao looked at the endless sky, her thoughts temporarily pulling away from her boundless sorrow.

She suddenly remembered the Meng Yun in strange attire she had seen through the Demon Seed's projection when she died in her second reincarnation.

That Meng Yun was also Meng Yun, he was also him, he was also her husband!!

That's right, that's right, the Demon Seed had also said before it died that its presence was everywhere in the Three Thousand Worlds!

This world was not the only one, and the Earth Immortal Realm was not the end!

Wu Yinyao clutched the wooden sword, Meng Yun's last gift, her gaze gradually firming.

Meng Yun.

Even if it meant searching through the highest heavens and the deepest underworld.

She would definitely find him.

If he wasn't in this world, then she would go to another world. She would personally go through the Three Thousand Worlds, searching one by one, until she found Meng Yun!

Wu Yinyao's body descended to the ground, all her emotions sealed away.

From today onwards, emotions were useless to her. Her future life would only have one keyword—

Cultivation.

"Wu Yinyao, Brother Meng Yun, he..."

Luo Mian was overwhelmed with emotion but still tried to comfort Wu Yinyao.

"I'm going to the Upper Realm to find him. If he's not in the Upper Realm, I'll go to the realm above that." Wu Yinyao was devoid of joy or sorrow as she walked away.

Linglong hesitated for a moment, then followed closely, crying tears: "I want to find Master too!"

Luo Mian stood in place, looking up at the sky.

After the Demon Seed disappeared, he keenly noticed that the world's rules had been restored, and order had returned.

It seemed that a gate of ascension leading to the Upper Realm, after being closed for an unknown number of years, was slowly opening again.

"Ascension, huh…" Luo Mian murmured.

Due to the limitations of the world's low level, only one Earth Immortal could appear at a time.

"Although I also really want to travel across mountains and rivers to reunite with my brother, this time, I'll let her go first…"

...

In the 670th year of the Martial Country, which was six years after Meng Yun saved the world, Wu Yinyao broke through to the Earth Immortal Realm. This year, she was twenty-three years old.

The entire country rejoiced, and the Emperor wished to pass the throne to her, but Wu Yinyao declined.

In the 682nd year of the Martial Country, the Crown Prince ascended the throne as Emperor.

In the 749th year of the Martial Country, the Crown Prince's direct grandson ascended the throne as Emperor. In September of the same year, Wu Yinyao broke through to the peak of the Earth Immortal Realm and opened the Heavenly Gate with a single sword strike.

It is said that according to later records, on that day, an immortal's exclamation came from the sky: "This world has been dead for a long time, how can there still be a human ascending to the Upper Realm!"

Responding to him was a soaring sword light.

Immortal blood splattered across the heavens and earth, and the immortal was silently still. Wu Yinyao, accompanied by the nation-guarding spirit beast White Fox Linglong, ascended amidst radiant light.

In the 888th year of the Martial Country, Zhenyang Prince Luo Mian opened the Heavenly Gate with a single spear thrust, causing stars to fall, and ascended amidst radiant light.

It is said that an immortal exclaimed from within the Heavenly Gate:

"This person is an old friend of Silver Yao Empress, by no means can he be offended!"

...

Meng Yun woke up in his own bed and sighed.

It felt like a lifetime ago.

Looking at his own ceiling again, Meng Yun couldn't help but feel a sense of things having changed.

"This time, it should be a complete success, right?" Meng Yun murmured: "It's just a pity that I couldn't spend more time with Yinyao."

Never mind.

The sweet and inseparable days, he had already experienced them during the first simulation.

To achieve this, it was not a regret.

"Let's see how my simulation results are." Meng Yun brought up the Simulator panel and began to look at the summary evaluation.

【You are a Sky Fiend Lone Star; those who get close to you will suffer from bad luck at best, and die violently at worst. You are truly a calamitous star descended upon the world.】

【You embarked on the journey alone, fought evil bandits, saved the white fox, slew Zhenyang Prince, and annihilated the Demon Seed. With one person, one fox, and one sword, you accomplished the almost impossible feat of saving the world.】

【Although you could not achieve a positive outcome with her, you are content with protecting her safety, and have no regrets in this life.】

【This simulation result is SS】

【You have unlocked achievements】

【Achievement One: Humanoid Gundam (Gold)】

Linglong regards you as a Humanoid Gundam; she herself acts as the pilot, controlling you to fight side by side. Every time a battle is won, she believes she has made an indelible contribution, and your performance has never disappointed her.

【Achievement Two: Lone Brave (Red)】

You embarked on the journey alone with a single sword, enduring years of hardship, and finally slaying the Demon Seed with your sword.

You are the strongestThe Reverse in the world; your life is a hymn to courage.

【Achievement Three: Nameless Hero (Red)】

You completed the feat of saving the world in an unknown place. The world does not know of your existence, nor does it know that a doomsday catastrophe was avoided because of your self-sacrifice. You are a true nameless hero.

【Achievement Four: Immortal Creator (??? )】

Your experiences seem to be influencing others, driving irreversible and magical changes in the world line. The future is evolving towards a certain predetermined outcome, and you are the unintentional mastermind behind all of this.

【Please select your rewards for this simulation. You may choose any four from the following rewards, and also receive one hundred years of lifespan.】

1. Immediately inherit the strongest strength from this simulation.

2. Immediately master the strongest swordplay, Demon Subduing Swordplay, from this simulation.

3. Top-tier barbecue skills sufficient to establish a sect.

4. An unopened red bridal veil.

5. A complete set of Demon Seed cultivation techniques.

"Four, huh?" Meng Yun stroked his chin and quickly made a decision:

"I choose 1, 2, 3, and 4."

Don't ask why; if you ask, it's because the Demon Seed is something everyone wants to kill, and even if other things are useless, he would gladly take them.

As he confirmed his choice again, the four rewards were also distributed.

The first thing he felt, naturally, was the arrival of a hundred years of lifespan, his body once again radiating vigorous vitality.

Afterward, a profound fluctuation emanated from within his body again. Meng Yun's cultivation instantly broke through to the early Nascent Soul stage.

A miniature Meng Yun, entirely translucent and displaying two colors of yin and yang, slowly opened its eyes in his dantian.

The aura belonging to a Nascent Soul instantly erupted.

And that Demon Subduing Swordplay, which slayed demons and monsters, instantly became fully understood in his mind.

As for barbecue, he now felt terrifyingly strong. If he ever got tired of fighting and killing, he could open a barbecue shop and support himself for a lifetime!

Finally, there was the red bridal veil that appeared out of thin air on the bed.

Meng Yun held it in his hand; it was clearly ordinary and light as a feather, but the weight it conveyed at this moment was as heavy as a thousand jun.

As if thinking of something, he solemnly took out the tangled strands of hair from his pocket, then wrapped them with the red bridal veil.

"Wu Yinyao…"

Thinking of that peerlessly beautiful face, whether happy or annoyed, Meng Yun was again lost in thought for a moment.

Never to meet again in this life, may you live well in that world.

With that, he was content.

He neatly folded the red bridal veil and placed it in the top drawer of his bedside table.

After doing this, he looked into the distance, shaking his head with a slight bitter smile.

These people from the 654 Bureau are really fast.

He had just broken through to the Nascent Soul stage, and someone was already here again?

No sooner said than done, a figure suddenly appeared, dropping out of thin air into Meng Yun's room.

"You are, Meng Yun?"

Meng Yun looked at the unfriendly expression of the newcomer and retorted, "Trespassing on private property, isn't that a bit rude, buddy?"

"I am Qian Lai." The newcomer said expressionlessly: "The one slapped by Sun Liang, that's my younger brother."
