Of course, if the other party provoked me later and ended up in the Emperor’s Banner, then they have only themselves to blame.
The memories of the three women greatly impacted Lu Ye and contributed to his growth.
He believed that moving forward, he absolutely wouldn’t stubbornly try to change other people’s destinies.
Respect others’ destinies and let go of the urge to help!
That’s the smartest choice for anyone.
Otherwise, you’ll get dragged into a quagmire from which you can’t escape!
There are still five more people’s memories.
“System, can you briefly summarize the situations of the remaining five?” Lu Ye inquired.
“Ding! Sure!”
The system began narrating the situations of the five women.
The first is Yue Hongling. Due to her own lack of belief and her endless longing for a deceased demon, she chose betrayal. Extremely stubborn, she has endured countless pains and seems to be trying to turn over a new leaf.
The second, Shangguan Huanling, was too pampered, leading to her Emotion Dao disappearing. Being easily manipulated due to her low IQ, she was poisoned, and in this life, she is crazily pursuing Lu Ye after re-establishing her Emotion Dao.
The third, An Li, is dissatisfied with her stable status. Her aspirations are sky-high, and whether in her past or current life, she has colluded with the Darkness Origin. She was one of the instigators of betrayal and still shows no regret in this life.
The fourth, Zhuque, is a fake saint—generous with others but misled in the last life, holding a grudge against Lu Ye. In this life, she was personally slain by Lu Ye, transformed into an obsession, and revived at a significant cost by the Darkness Origin. Now, there are no debts left between them, no lingering feelings whatsoever.
The fifth, Yin Qingcheng, deepened her cultivation of the Ultimate Emotion Dao. After saving her life, the Forgetful Emotion Celestial Lord acted, leading her to believe in his love for her. Even after being resurrected, she still clung to the Ultimate Emotion Dao, but has now turned to the Forgetful Emotion Dao, regarding Lu Ye as a stepping stone in her path.
The culprits behind the memory loss.
Lu Ye nodded, understanding the situations of these five women clearly.
An Li still hasn’t regretted it and is colluding with the Darkness Origin against him, meaning he hasn’t done enough to stop her; it’s clear he hasn’t made her hate him strongly enough.
An Li’s memories definitely need to come over. When he kills her, he’ll be extra motivated.
As the memories of An Li flooded in, Lu Ye exclaimed, “Wow!”
No wonder An Li has been suffering; no wonder she can’t accept a peaceful life—it’s completely her twisted psychology!
Hmm, she definitely needs to go. Just don’t know where An Li has disappeared to.
Ultimately, An Li seems closer to the Darkness Origin, yet her presence is nowhere to be found. No idea where she’s gone for her training.
Aside from An Li, since he owed nothing to Zhuque, her memories are irrelevant to him. But for the sake of completeness, he would restore them!
After reviewing his memories with Zhuque, Lu Ye noticed it wasn’t Zhuque who has issues, but rather Zhuque’s lack of trust in him.
Indeed, he owed nothing there, so it’s not worth dwelling on.
And what about Yue Hongling? Does she know she’s wrong?
Alright, let’s take a look at what exactly she thinks she’s got wrong.
Shangguan Huanling’s case…
Her Emotion Dao seemed more like a joke. Forget it, no need to remember this one, as Lu Ye believes there can’t be any valuable memories there!
Then there’s Yin Qingcheng, whose objective is for him to forget everyone else, so he won’t remember her. He’ll remember everyone, except… hmm, with the exception of Shangguan Huanling.
Lu Ye knows that forgetting her might cost him some good memories.
But as he loses some good memories, he also sheds worries and gains a sense of relief— isn’t that a pretty good deal?
“Ding! Are you sure you want to forget all memories of Yin Qingcheng and Shangguan Huanling?” Shen Xitang asked carefully.
Lu Ye hesitated a bit.
He thought of another possibility—what if he forgot Shangguan Huanling and then ran into her again, only to develop feelings for her?
He had liked her in his past life, which proved there was something about her that attracted him.
If he were to fall for Shangguan Huanling again, Lu Ye instinctively shivered.
“Forget it, forget it. Let’s keep the memories of Shangguan Huanling. I’m slightly worried.”
The system let out a sigh of relief.
Thank goodness, the host still wants to remember that silly girl.
If Lu Ye really erased the memories of Shangguan Huanling, combined with her current crazy behavior of wanting to drag him to bed—considering he had returned to life without doing a single thing—who knows, maybe she’d manage to charm him successfuly.
So it’s better to keep the memories of Shangguan Huanling after all.
Lu Ye and the system both understood that the best approach with Shangguan Huanling is for Lu Ye to get back together with her.
As long as they reunited, Shangguan Huanling would definitely pull some tricks.
Admittedly, this might take quite a while, given that Lu Ye hadn’t had clashing interests for some time. For someone so keen on meat, it’s a major temptation.
Shangguan Huanling was similar as well. For someone who could share a bed, it’d been ages since she last indulged, and now her mind is filled with such thoughts.
If these two carnivores were together now, the system suspects they could go a decade without getting out of bed.
And during that decade, their bond would surely become inseparable.
If the goal is to make Shangguan Huanling stir things up, it would require a long time.
The cost of such an undertaking is just too high; the system really doesn’t want to do it!
Hmm… the host is meant to ascend to greater Dao, how can he drown in softness?
Hope the host can withstand it. If he can’t… well, if he can’t, he can’t; there’s no way he can make the host…
Lu Ye received the memories about Shangguan Huanling and couldn’t help but be both amused and exasperated.
What the heck is this?
What is this nonsense?!
He really is a piece of work, even the silly girl…
Deserved to get played!
“Ding! Should the memories regarding Yin Qingcheng be completely destroyed?” the system asked.
Lu Ye didn’t hesitate at all.
“Completely destroy them!”
“Ding! Destruction successful!”
Just as that was successfully completed, a divine light enveloped the surroundings.
A stunning woman riding the celestial light approached Lu Ye, with ribbons flying and her gaze sparkling like water.
Instantly, Lu Ye sensed her presence and recognized which faction she belonged to.
The Forgetful Emotion Celestial Palace!
This was his major client from his previous life, and their collaboration had been quite pleasant.
“Greetings, Fellow Daoist Lu Ye!”
Lu Ye nodded, “What brings you here?”
“Daoist, the Saintess of the Forgetful Emotion Celestial Palace, Yin Qingcheng, wishes to meet with you!”
Lu Ye nodded, “Alright!”
The Saintess herself is looking for him? It seems the Forgetful Emotion Celestial Palace is about to bring him another lucrative deal!
