Demon King's Pampered Wife

C165 The Vanished Yongye City(part Ii)

"Worried she'd disappear?" Zilch stopped and turned to face Locke.

In three years, Little Loke had grown into the appearance of a youth, only half a head shorter than the purple silk. Looking into the deep eyes of the purple silk, Loke gently nodded his head.

"All things have karma and reincarnation, just like how you and I will one day step into reincarnation. The Elves of Eternal Night City and this place … Their time for reincarnation has come. " Zi Ling looked at Loke and said softly.

"Is it time for reincarnation?" Loke had only been in the midst of cultivation for three years. He was completely unlike the Nascent Soul Stage devils like Zi Ling, who had cultivated for over a hundred years and had a calm heart, who could read the cycle of reincarnation. He only hoped that his little buddy would not leave him.

"Yes, these elves died a hundred years ago. It was the special characteristic of the Eternal Night City that caused them to leave behind a remnant of their soul. Right now, the limit of the Eternal Night City has reached, so of course the Undead here can't escape this fate."

Zi Ling only explained her thoughts. Seeing how deep Roarke's thoughts were, she didn't say anything further and walked away from Roarke's side, entering the inner city by herself.

Three years ago, although Zi Ling and the others killed quite a few Undead in Yongye City, when Zi Ling went to prison, she released quite a few Undead. But now, the streets of Yongye City are empty, and the remaining Undead are as transparent as smoke, almost completely disappearing into the air.

Darl had appeared behind Zi Ling at some point, and the latter had already discovered him, but she did not point it out. Darl paused for a moment before moving closer.

"Miss Ye …" Darl spoke up.

"What's the matter?" Zilch tilted her head. Although Darl looked older than she was, she was actually much older than Darl.

"Can't you save Lena?" Not only Roarke, Pearl and the others loved the cute Lina.

Zi Ling tilted her head and looked up. "There are many things in this world that I am powerless against."

Darl sighed softly and nodded, "I know, but there's always a sliver of hope in my heart."

"Sometimes, it's not necessarily a bad thing to let things go. If I force Lian Na to live on in another form, then she might not be who she was before, and this might not be Locke's hope."

It was true that she had no way of keeping Lina alive in the form of Lina.

Darl frowned. "Existence in another form?"

Just as Darl was asking, Loke, who had followed closely behind, heard their conversation. He quickly ran over and stared at Zi Ling, "Master, you have a way to keep Lian Na alive, don't you?"

"It's not that they're still alive, it's just an existence. And this existence might not be Lian Na herself."

Locke didn't understand. He just wanted her alive.

Zi Ling sighed softly. "Loke, you didn't listen to what I said just now. Fine, I'll give you two choices. One, make Lian Na disappear with Yongye City, and two, make Lian Na lose her memories as a puppet. You choose on your own."

Locke's eyes widened, and he watched again as the purple silk disappeared from her sight.

At this moment, Dare finally understood the meaning of what Zi Ling said just now. He stroked Locke's head. "Roarke, she's right. Even if Lian Na survives like that, she can't be called Lian Na. It's better for her to disappear along with Yongye City."

"Uncle Dale, Lian Na is so pitiful. She has been lonely here for a hundred years and has never seen anything on the boundless sea. How can she disappear along with the Eternal Night City?"

The more Locke spoke, the more excited he became. His cheeks were flushed.

Darl sighed. "But there's nothing we can do."

Locke lowered his head and clenched his fists. Yes, there was nothing he could do about it.

"Loke, Loke …" At this moment, a transparent figure of a little undead appeared at the mouth of the alley in front of them. Its voice was soft and soft, as though it was afraid of startling the two of them.

Darl glanced up, patted Locke on the shoulder, and stalked off.

Loke wiped his red eyes and looked at her. "Why are you here?"

"I heard you talking, Roarke. Don't be sad, okay?"

Locke raised his hand, wanting to touch her face, but he resisted the urge. "Lena, I'll think of something, definitely!"

Lina suddenly smiled, like a beautiful tail flower.

"Locke, I'm already very happy to be able to get to know you. Can you not be sad about my disappearance?" Lian Na approached and used her transparent hands to caress Loke's face. Then she smiled mischievously. "If I could touch you, I wouldn't be sad even if I disappear."

Locke sniffed, his voice muffled. "Fool."

Lian Na giggled, her eyes revealing a trace of heavy reluctance.

"You're leaving, aren't you?" she asked, trying to make her voice as alive as possible, but Locke, who knew her, felt something strange.

Loke nodded with difficulty. "Yes, we should leave when the master returns."

"Is that so?" Lena lowered her eyes to hide her sadness.

Locke could not bear to part with her, but he comforted himself with the thought that his master was right. Lian Na was only Lian Na because she had her own memories. If she lost her memories and existed like a puppet, without the joy and joy of the past, she might as well leave her memories here forever.

"Lian Na, I'll go ask Master to stay a while longer." A strong sense of reluctance rose in Loke's heart. He still didn't understand what that feeling was. He only thought it was a reluctance to part from his friends.

"No, Roarke, you have your work to do. Don't worry about me." After Lian Na said this, she floated out of the room. "I'm going to Grandpa Zur's house. Quickly go and find your master."

Locke reached out to grab her back, but it was futile, and he watched her float out of his sight.

As night fell, the waves lapped against the rocks and retreated back into the sea with a "Hua Hua" sound, adding a few strands of life to the silent and depressing Eternal Night City.

Zi Ling sat upright on the reef. She did not cultivate, but rather stared at the dark and boundless sea before her.

"You've been there so long. What's the matter?" Zi Ling didn't look back. She pointed at Lian Na, who was hiding behind a reef in the distance.

Lian Na was startled and slowly floated out. Towards this beautiful woman before her, she had an instinctive fear.

She rubbed her hands together and slowly approached the purple silk. As they got closer, the graceful and slender figure in front of her was like a mountain, pressing down on her and making her look inconspicuous.

"You … "I …" Lian Na stammered for a long time, unable to understand what was going on.

Zi Ling retracted her gaze and turned her head to the side to look at the Undead. "Did you look for me for your own sake or for Loke's?"

Although Lian Na couldn't breathe, she still took a deep breath, as if this was the only way she could have the courage to face this extraordinary woman in front of her.

"For myself." Lian Na's large eyes revealed a trace of bravery.

Zi Ling smiled gently, "Oh? For yourself... "Tell me about it."

Lian Na pursed her lips. "I want to survive."

Zi Ling stared at her transparent face and did not immediately reply. After a long while, she said, "If I lose my memory and my consciousness, what's the difference between living and dying?"

Lian Na suddenly raised her head and stared into Zi Ling's eyes. "At least, I can still feel him."

Zi Ling didn't understand the relationship between Loke and Lian Na. She lightly shook her head. "Why must you suffer?"

"Please help me. I want to stay with Roarke forever."

"You are willing to become a puppet without any consciousness?"

Lian Na nodded slightly. "I'm willing. As long as I can still see him and feel him."

Zi Ling didn't hesitate too much, "Fine, since it's your own choice, I'll help you once." Perhaps this was the result of Locke's unwillingness to face it.

Lian Na was extremely happy. "Then what should I do?"

Zi Ling shook her head, "You don't have to do anything. Hurry up and get along with Loke. The day you leave is the day you forget everything."

The joy on Lian Na's face instantly disappeared, but a trace of determination soon appeared on her delicate face. She nodded. "Alright, thank you."

Zi Ling gave a soft "En" before saying, "You can go first."

At some point, Lian Na had drifted away from the seaside. Zi Ling was still sitting on the reef, looking at the boundless black sea. Three years had passed, and the figures of her old friends suddenly flashed past her eyes one by one.

Zhao Ting, Huang Ying, Jin, Chu Feng, Ai Si, Nina, Paparek, Qi Hao …

Thinking of the few people in front of her, she could still maintain her calm. She didn't know why, but when that familiar face passed through her mind, her emotions would unconsciously fluctuate.

She didn't like this feeling, and frowned. She forced herself to calm down, and stopped thinking about her old friends. Since he was going back, he would see what he needed to see sooner or later.

The next day, Roarke felt that Lian Na was in a much better state than before, as if she was completely relaxed, and the smile on her face was no longer bitter.

"Lian Na, did something happen?" asked Locke, puzzled.

Lian Na sweetly smiled and covered it up. "No, Loke. Will you miss me after you leave?"

Loke suppressed the reluctance in his heart and nodded. "I will. I will always remember you."

Lian Na's smile froze for a moment. "Then, should I accompany you forever?"

Locke smiled at her. "Idiot, there's no such thing as an eternal banquet. Who can stay with whom forever?" He suppressed the reluctance in his heart, thinking that perhaps his master was right. To let Lian Na enter reincarnation and be reborn, that was what a true freshman was. She could use a different identity to recognize the world, to see the boundless world beyond the sea that she had never seen before.

"Then if I want to stay by your side forever, will you lose me?" Lian Na pretended to be joking as she stared at Loke and spoke with a smile.

Loke could not bear to face her smiling face. He turned his head and said in a slightly bitter voice, "Let me accompany you to see the sea."

Lian Na faintly smiled and did not voice her plans. Instead, she obediently nodded. "Alright."
