156: Chapter 156 We will be happy together, for a lifetime.

Fen Tian took out a purple light orb from his space.

The light orb floated between Yan Qing and Lang Lie.

He leaned down to Tang Ruan's ear and raised an eyebrow, saying, "Once the color of the light orb becomes transparent, they will forget you."

They will forget you."

Tang Ruan clenched her fists, trying her best to remain calm.

"No need to go to the Illusion Void?"

"No need," Fen Tian straightened up and said confidently, "The Illusion Void only helps the Beast God find a weakness. But I, as long as I control 'Memory Swallower', can make them forget the person they love."

But I, as long as I control 'Memory Swallower', can make them forget the person they love."

Tang Ruan glanced at Memory Swallower.

Fen Tian immediately warned, "Don't go over there, or you will lose your memories too!"

The moment his voice fell.

The purple orb suddenly burst with light, and the entire room was plunged into a vast expanse of white.

Tang Ruan stumbled back two steps, nearly falling over.

Fen Tian instinctively reached out his hand, wanting to support her.

But she stepped back and dodged him.

A complex emotion surged into his heart.

He knew that A-Wu must be very sad right now and hated him very much.

But as long as these people didn't pester her anymore,

She would one day understand that in the Beast World, only he was worthy of her love.

Tang Ruan kept her head down, slowly backing away until she was almost at Yan Qing's feet.

Suddenly, she looked up.

Revealing a cruel smile: "Then why don't I forget you along with them!"

As she spoke, she reached out to touch Memory Swallower.

Memory Swallower would consume a beastman's memories.

If one got too close, a massive amount of memories would be sucked away.

Not only would she forget the person she loved, but it might even take all of her memories away with it!

She would become like a walking corpse.

"A-Wu!"

Fen Tian immediately activated his Supernatural Ability.

With a loud "Bang!", a massive sound rang out.

Memory Swallower shattered into countless pieces of purple stardust.

Slowly descending onto Yan Qing and Lang Lie.

Tang Ruan's hand was cut by the exploding Memory Swallower, dripping with blood.

But she had no intention of healing it.

She turned back and looked at Fen Tian, who was holding her, with a smile.

"This is better; it's better than me remembering alone and suffering."

"A-Wu! Why did you do this!"

Fen Tian covered her wound, his entire heart trembling.

Just now, he had almost lost her again.

An A-Wu who completely lost her memories wouldn't remember him even if she reincarnated.

He pulled her tightly into his arms.

Tang Ruan allowed him to hold her like a string puppet.

"Fen Tian, from now on, I belong to you alone.

You can do whatever you want.

However, although they don't remember me,

I don't remember them either.

And I won't remember you either!

Are you satisfied now?" She smiled cruelly.

Fen Tian's eyes widened slightly.

What did A-Wu mean? Did she mean that the people she loved also included him?

She didn't know that Memory Swallower would swallow all of a person's memories.

She only thought it would make her forget the people she loved.

Fen Tian felt a surge of joy in his heart.

"A-Wu, you won't forget me." Because Memory Swallower had already been blown up by him.

The memories it had recently absorbed would also return to their original owners.

He held her tightly, wishing he could embed her into his own body.

Tang Ruan saw his reaction.

She thought to herself: It's settled.

She had actually taken a gamble just now, betting on whether Fen Tian would stop absorbing Yan Qing and Lang Lie's memories for her sake.

She also deliberately revealed that he was among the people she loved.

She used this to confirm whether their memories could be preserved after Memory Swallower was destroyed.

Now, she already had the answer.

Tang Ruan said on purpose, "Didn't you say that all loved ones would be forgotten?

What? You can be the exception?"

"A-Wu, I... I didn't know you..."

Hearing her say she loved him, Fen Tian's heart felt both joy and pain.

He saw that she still wasn't healing herself.

He anxiously called for the Witch Doctors outside the door.

The three Old Witch Doctors saw the situation.

They hurriedly helped Tang Ruan stop the bleeding.

After all the commotion.

Tang Ruan remained expressionless throughout.

It was as if she couldn't feel the pain at all.

Fen Tian felt like a knife was twisting in his heart.

A-Wu loved him, yet she was so angry with him that she wanted to forget him as well.

Did he do something wrong...

---

In the evening, Tang Ruan saw Fen Tian appear in her room.

She walked past him without any expression.

Fen Tian suddenly stood up from his chair and hugged her tightly from behind.

"A-Wu..."

"Who are you? I don't know you, get out!" she said deliberately.

"A-Wu... it's me." Fen Tian's voice softened.

He had used almost half of his Energy to destroy 'Memory Swallower'.

How could she possibly forget him.

She was still angry with him.

"A-Wu, don't ignore me."

He stuck to Tang Ruan like a piece of gum.

Tang Ruan: "You've been hurting me constantly, why should I talk to you?"

"I won't hurt you anymore." He buried his head in the crook of her neck.

Tang Ruan took a deep breath.

She sneered: "No need for 'anymore', aren't you hurting me right now?"

Fen Tian's body jolted.

Tang Ruan pried his hands away.

"For the next ten, twenty, thirty years... as long as I remember that it was you who made me lose my three Beast Husbands,

I will hate you forever.

Even if I love you a little, it won't be enough to cancel out my hate."

She turned around.

She saw Fen Tian standing there as if struck by lightning.

She took a deep breath.

Easing the pain of her "conscience."

Tang Ruan knew it was wrong to use people. In the past, what she hated most was people who used others' feelings.

But now, she had to do this.

"A-Wu..."

Tang Ruan turned her back.

"However, although my heart isn't yours, my body still is.

This is our exchange condition."

As she spoke, she began to take off her clothes.

Fen Tian grabbed her hand.

He helped her put back on the clothes she had half-removed.

He felt that if he possessed her under these circumstances, he would be desecrating her.

"A-Wu, I know you are very sad.

But I really cannot accept other Male Beastmen taking you away."

Fen Tian looked at her pleadingly.

He didn't want A-Wu to hate him, much less did he want her to be sad.

But he couldn't accept that A-Wu didn't belong to him alone.

Tang Ruan saw him like this and knew he was wavering again.

She raised her hand, her soft fingers tightly clasping Fen Tian's fingers.

"Fen Tian, have you ever thought that for Lang Lie, Yan Qing, and Hu Che, you are the Male Beastman who snatched away their Mistress.

If you hadn't appeared, we would have been together happily for a lifetime."

Fen Tian was stunned.

Tang Ruan had voiced the one thing he had been most unwilling to face these past few days.

Even if they were partners in their past life,

A-Wu had already forgotten.

To her, he was the latecomer.

He was the one who destroyed their life.

Tang Ruan continued persuasively, "When Yan Qing was with me, he knew about Lang Lie's existence.

He helped me look for him for five years.

In the end, to bring him out of Beast God Mountain, he risked half his life.

Later, to save him, he went into a deep sleep along with Lang Lie.

Because he knows that loving someone means making her happy.

Giving her what she wants.

Instead of taking away what she likes."

"A-Wu... I—"

Tang Ruan went on: "Hu Che knew me even earlier than Yan Qing did.

At that time, his clansmen were wiped out.

He could only set his feelings aside temporarily, but in the five years we were apart, he prepared a gift for me every year.

He was thinking every moment about becoming strong quickly and returning to my side quickly.

He even signed a contract with Yan Qing just to be with me.

He could only let me take the initiative, otherwise he couldn't make any further progress with me.

Do you know why Yan Qing did that?"

Fen Tian: "Because he loves you and didn't want you to be snatched away by other Male Beastmen."

He gripped her hand back.

Tang Ruan smiled and shook her head gently, "He was just afraid that Hu Che wouldn't be sincere enough towards me.

But in the end, he found that we liked each other.

So he agreed to let me take Hu Che in.

He even entrusted the entire Beast Kingdom to Hu Che before he fell into a deep sleep.

The Beast Kingdom—it was his life's work and dream."

Fen Tian listened with furrowed brows.

"This is different from my love," he said excitedly.

Tang Ruan looked directly into his blood-red eyes: "Fen Tian, this is called 'loving the house and its crow'. Can you do that?"
