Chapter 1336: Did You Dream of Me?

Chapter 1336: Did You Dream of Me?

Lin Nuo took a trip to the location of the Demon Star, only to find that it had long reverted to ordinary rock, gradually buried by the sands of time.

Moreover, after various examinations by Immortal practitioners, it had been completely confirmed that the Demon Soul Power of the Demon Star had vanished entirely.

Lin Nuo’s hand rested on the surface of the Demon Star, receiving not even the slightest response.

Well, it’s over.

“Senior Martial Brother, why did you bring us here?”

At that moment, Lin Nuo had only brought Su Kexin and Liu Shuqin with him and had not mentioned what he intended to do.

Lin Nuo let out a long sigh, his expression tinged with sorrow, as if he were parting forever from an old friend.

They were unaware of the details but could guess that Lin Nuo had something weighing on his mind. The mysteries of what he encountered at his death were even more intriguing.

“Have you had any dreams or hallucinations during this time?”

“Dreams? Yes, I dreamt about Senior Martial Brother. The whole dream was sweet. But waking up felt like a knife to the heart—it was suffocating, as if I could barely go on living. I couldn’t bear to attend Senior Martial Brother’s funeral, because doing so would mean I would be separated from him forever.”

The aggrieved Su Kexin spoke, about to shed little pearls of tears; it was truly a painful memory, as every recall was excruciating.

“Didn’t I come back? Stop the crying.”

Lin Nuo pulled Su Kexin into his embrace, ensuring fairness by bringing Liu Shuqin closer too.

At that moment, words of comfort paled in comparison to a hug. If they were feeling emotional and aggrieved, a warm embrace and a kiss worked wonders.

Although they sometimes bickered, both generally had good temperaments; a little coaxing would suffice and they wouldn’t push their luck, knowing when to be reasonable.

Of course, with Lin Nuo’s nature, if you sulked too long, he would likely ignore you.

“Let’s put it this way, have you ever dreamt or had hallucinations concerning my previous life?”

“Dreams… it seems I did have one… I think I dreamt of Senior Martial Brother being killed by me… but I promise, that was only once! The others were all about our sweet life together; I never hoped for any misfortune to befall Senior Martial Brother!”

Su Kexin hurriedly explained like a child caught misbehaving, eager to express her loyalty to Lin Nuo.

“I’m not angry with you; just don’t be nervous… So you saw me being killed? Did you see yourself back then?”

“Are you talking about that disgusting woman?”

“That person is you. You shouldn’t say such things about yourself…”

Little Su spoke of Da Su as if they were sworn enemies, practically itching to charge and cut her down.

Last time, the two sisters nearly clashed with each other.

“That’s not me! I would never kill Senior Martial Brother. That loathsome woman would dare to lay hands on Senior Martial Brother!”

Su Kexin’s emotions flared up, as anyone who intended to harm Lin Nuo was her despised enemy.

Lin Nuo shook his head, sighing gently:

“In truth, the you back then might have also been my enemy. Because we were originally adversaries; you had no personal connection with me. Killing me was the only way you could find peace in this world. You had no reason not to oppose me. And even if I lived again, my initial thought would also be to kill you, but my strength wouldn’t allow it. If I had Liang Zhao’s power, you’d be gone.”

“Then, that also means Senior Martial Brother regarded me as her. In the end, didn’t we transform hatred into love? Aren’t we still together? It’s destiny that I’m not the same person as her, and yet we can still be together!”

Su Kexin spoke with unwavering conviction, asserting that she was far superior to Da Su, a solitary and cruel woman; how could they be the same person?

“Husband, why do you ask such things?” Liu Shuqin interjected.

“We’re not married yet; it’s too soon to change how I address you…”

“Actually, we’ve already made our vows in a way—we’ve both exchanged rings. So, we should be considered husband and wife now.”

Liu Shuqin chuckled lightly, finally able to call Lin Nuo “Husband” openly, as the dreamt-of happiness was about to unfold.

“Ah? Senior Martial Brother?! No, darling, when did you two make vows? That doesn’t seem fair!”

Su Kexin pondered; if they had made vows, wouldn’t that make her the little one? Didn’t Senior Martial Brother say everyone was on equal footing?

“Vows? Nonsense. Don’t go messing up the titles. Without my mother present, it doesn’t count, so you’re not my wives yet. That settles it; just call me however you normally would.”

Lin Nuo was quite serious; Xia Hanmo, being his revered mother, meant her acknowledgment was essential for any marriage matters.

“Right, I was rude. My apologies, Junior Martial Brother.”

Liu Shuqin hurriedly apologized. While teasing Lin Nuo was one thing, this matter involved parental approval, which was no joking matter.

Even though Lin Nuo usually kept to himself, looking down on others, he was exceptionally filial to Xia Hanmo.

Marriage affairs, of course, required her endorsement.

Though she’d said she acknowledged it, when it came to making vows, she definitely needed to be present.

“No need to apologize over such matters. You should be able to perceive something.”

“Yes, I witnessed Junior Martial Brother’s unbearable past, one I would rather not see. And I’ve been having these dreams continuously; could there be a reason?”

“Last time in Huan Tian City, the man who sold us the rings was an elder of time and space. When you died, your soul lingered in the mortal realm, and he was the one who sealed your memories of your previous life in the ring. If everything had deteriorated like before, he wouldn’t have appeared to give you the ring. But since everything has changed, he let you access your past memories. Additionally, I thought I had died this time and encountered him in the reincarnation space; he also said I was dead, but that crafty old man deceived me—I didn’t die.”

“Have you seen him? Perhaps there is some hidden arrangement. If it weren’t for him, I might not have known about Junior Martial Brother’s past wounds. But that’s all gone now; from now on, I will cherish you, Junior Martial Brother, and never let you feel alone again.”

Liu Shuqin slowly leaned into Lin Nuo’s embrace, and when Su Kexin saw that, she felt the need to do something to avoid appearing foolish.

“I have always loved Senior Martial Brother, and I will be an exceptional wife. From now on, I will be absolutely obedient to Senior Martial Brother!”

“Enough. Just be yourself; there’s no need to change for me. You are you, and if it were anyone else, I wouldn’t want that.”

“Um… Senior Martial Brother, your words are so sweet right now…”

Although Lin Nuo generally projected a sense of aloofness, sometimes his tender words could draw one in completely.

Only you, I just want the real you—wasn’t that a lasting confession?

“Sweet? Maybe. In that space, I also saw the woman you despise. She seemed to have taken her own life and was preparing to walk the road of reincarnation.”

“She… took her life? Why would she think that way?” Su Kexin asked curiously.
