Shivering.
Yin Qingcheng couldn’t stop trembling.
Her eyes were filled with horror, even a hint of despair.
This time, she had been killed by Lu Ye’s own hand.
She had already proven her identity, letting Lu Ye know she was his Dao Companion. She spoke of Lu Ye’s expertise in multiple paths, she mentioned how good Lu Ye was at loving others, she even listed what Lu Ye liked…
But when she got to what Lu Ye liked, Yin Qingcheng suddenly choked up.
What does Lu Ye like?
At that moment, her mind went blank, completely clueless about what Lu Ye actually liked.
Lu Ye, however, remembered what every single one of them liked.
But what Lu Ye liked? He never brought it up, and they never asked, as if… Lu Ye didn’t deserve to have preferences.
“You like to protect, you like to guard the ones you love!”
This was Yin Qingcheng’s desperate answer.
But unexpectedly, Lu Ye shook his head gently.
“Wrong!”
In the final moments before Yin Qingcheng’s death, she asked one last time.
“Lu Ye, what do you like?”
Lu Ye gave his answer.
“I like…”
“Boom!”
Yin Qingcheng only saw Lu Ye’s lips moving, but the sound became incredibly, incredibly faint, so she couldn’t hear it clearly.
So in the end, she still didn’t know what Lu Ye liked.
Lu Ye seemed to have said something, but she just couldn’t catch it.
“What did he say? What on earth did he say?”
Yin Qingcheng felt a bit frantic. How could she, who thought of herself as Lu Ye’s greatest love, not even know what he liked?
And there was one more horrifying thing.
Lu Ye, now in the series of tribulations within the Three Lifetimes Tribulation, should be encountering the point where he lost a life in his previous life.
Now, with Vermilion Bird, Yue Hongling, Bai Qiulan, Shangguan Huanling, Chu Ling, and Jiang Die, a total of six people, he had given up a life for each of them.
And during the last time he faced the Eternal Great Tribulation, Lu Ye was down to just one life, self-detonating.
He had clearly possessed nine lives.
Which meant… Lu Ye very likely had also given up a life for her.
But why didn’t she know?
Why was there no memory at all?
When exactly did Lu Ye sacrifice a life for her?
The truth might just lie in the next point of tribulation.
Did Lu Ye… really die for her?
Yin Qingcheng’s complexion paled.
Looking at the cracked Three-Life Stone before her, Yin Qingcheng gritted her teeth; could she still hold on?
But she had no choice.
She had to find out where Lu Ye had sacrificed a life for her.
The Three-Life Stone emitted its final glow.
…
Lu Ye watched the imposing Jiang Wuyou from afar, deep in thought.
In truth, Yin Qingcheng hadn’t clearly heard what Lu Ye had said at the end because he had done it on purpose.
He was well aware that the other party had used some method… Well, if he just thought about it simply, Lu Ye figured out that Yin Qingcheng must have invaded his Three Lifetimes Tribulation using the Three-Life Stone from the Three-Life River Lord.
And she practiced the “Forgetful Immortal Scripture” from the Forgetful Immortal Sect.
So the deal was, she hadn’t allowed him to reach a true emotional state about her, making it impossible for him to forget her. By invading his Three Lifetimes Tribulation, she sought to make him develop deep feelings through the tribulation, and then forget her to achieve completion of the Forgetful Immortal Scripture?
That must be it.
But currently, it seemed she hadn’t succeeded, and had failed more than once.
Lu Ye shook his head lightly.
It appeared his path of emotions wasn’t smooth at all!
No matter.
All he sought now was invincibility.
It was time to move on to the next point of tribulation!
Lu Ye’s figure vanished.
When he reappeared, he was already outside the Forgetful Immortal Sect, and he…
Just as Yin Qingcheng’s figure appeared.
Suddenly, a loud boom erupted.
The Three-Life River Lord was in a rampage and had finally located Yin Qingcheng’s hiding spot.
A sharp, furious shout echoed through the heavens and earth.
“Return my Three-Life Stone!!!”
