As the empress who breaks off her engagement at the beginning, I choose the evil little black lotus.

Chapter 140 It's easy to change but old people's hearts

Su Yan looked at the peach grove on the other side of the river.

He and Xueer, Tuan Tuan, once went there to pick flowers and make wine.

Occasionally, that person comes along.

In the end, Su Yan chose to build a wooden house in the peach forest.

As the river flowed slowly, he retrieved memories from the long past bit by bit and pieced them together bit by bit.

In that wooden house, a faint blue flame burned for many years.

Su Yan would often write down what he wanted to say to Xue'er on paper and throw it into the fire.

Occasionally, he would travel far away, visit some famous musicians nearby, collect some music scores, and throw them into the fire when he came back.

This kind of strange fire, called Tongyou Fire, comes from the Nether River Realm, the big world closest to the Nether World.

Whether it is the universe before he traveled or the world after he traveled, people all have the same questions: Where does life come from, and where does death go?

In this world system, after the saint Wu Emperor is enthroned, he will conform his body to the way of heaven and become a part of this big world.

But below the saint level, there is no answer.

Only a very few, not one among billions, can transform into a martial spirit like Bai Su.

The vast majority of all living beings, even the Yasheng who have completed a life sublimation, still don't know where they are going to die.

Perhaps, the emperor who stands at the top of this world system can see it, but he also keeps it secret.

One theory is that after death, the soul will sink all the way to the underworld.

The Nether World is the soil beneath the Forest of the World. When those small worlds wither, they will fall to the Nether World and become part of the soil.

Many people believe that after death, people will be like these small worlds.

Maybe that's not the case.

In this world system, death is like a lamp going out, disappearing between heaven and earth.

Or maybe it’s an incredible place for other ordinary people.

But there are still the most people who believe in Youjie’s theory.

Now there is another Su Yan.

The dead are gone, but the living still need sustenance.

Seeing Su Yan living in seclusion in this peach forest from spring to autumn, Shen Xiaoxue felt a little anxious.

Because Su Yan didn't seem to have any intention of looking for her.

She wanted to ask Su Yan, even though you have been in reincarnation for five million years, what you can't forget is the red butterfly.

Now that Youdie is at your fingertips, why don't you go see her?

Fortunately, people don’t go to the flowers, the flowers come to them.

It was late autumn, and on this day, a figure in red clothes and white hair descended on the barren mountain.

Under the setting sun, the cold beauty's face remains as before, but the black hair on her head that was originally like dark clouds has turned into snow.

And the wind blew not only the white hair, but also an empty sleeve.

Since that day, after Liu Zhenzhen chopped off his right arm with a knife, this sleeve has been empty.

Shen Xiaoxue took out portions of rare delicacies from the Qiankun Ring, along with a jar of her daughter's favorite osmanthus wine, and burned them with the fire that led to the seclusion, just like Su Yan.

In the gradually dimming night, the blue flames reflected her already pale skin more transparently: "Xue'er, wait a minute, the souls of weak people will really go to the underworld. One day, when my mother becomes the emperor, I will definitely go down to the underworld and bring you back.”

In later generations, Shen Xiaoxue looked at this white-haired, one-armed woman with a somewhat complicated mood.

Unexpectedly, she, Shen Xiaoxue, would one day behave like this.

But Liu Zhenzhen was thinking, is this the red butterfly that he has been waiting for for five million years?

After the fire burned out, the white-haired Shen Xiaoxue still stood beside the embers and did not leave.

I don't know how long it took before a long sigh sounded: "Su Yan, I think about it every night, if you were still alive, how would I tell you about Xue'er's death?"

"But, I still beg you to live. Even if you have to bear the pain of losing a daughter, you don't care if you blame me or hate me. I just want you to live."

Shen Xiaoxue's remaining hand was clenched tightly, and her pretty face was a little distorted.

Before her eyes, the scene in front of the imperial mausoleum appeared again.

When Liu Zhenzhen swung that shocking sword towards her, Su Yan's heart immediately turned into nothingness.

At that time, under the huge impact, her mind went blank.

Two-thirds of the body disappeared directly. No warrior under the Sub-Sage could survive, not even the Martial King of Jiuding, let alone a Martial Lord Su Yan.

Therefore, when Su Yan's remaining head shouted to her, "For the sake of my daughter, you leave!", she would subconsciously light up the fox incense.

However, even so, she could not save her daughter.

Shen Xiaoxue, five million years after claiming to be the concubine of the Goddess, has been the most talented person in the history world, but she can't even protect her own wife, so how can she live with dignity!

If not, her daughter's great revenge has not yet been avenged, she really wants to break into the Fallen Heaven Realm again and end herself under Liu Zhenzhen's sword.

If you don’t know the suffering in the world, you will be afraid of hell.

She could only vent all her grief and anger in the pursuit of the remaining members of the Demon Emperor and the Elephantless Demon Sect.

Wherever the red sleeves passed by, the entire Shiyuan world was shrouded in a bloody storm.

Fortunately, some news came back from the Fallen Heaven Realm.

The emperor-selecting realm in the Fallen Heaven Realm seemed to be very interested in Su Yan's talent in commanding troops. They saved his life from the gate of hell and imprisoned him in the heavenly prison.

The news was true or false, but for Shen Xiaoxue, this was the last straw before she drowned.

She sent hundreds of envoys in succession to see Liu Zhenzhen.

As long as Liu Zhenzhen is willing to send Su Yan back, she can agree to any conditions.

It's a pity that none of those envoys could see Liu Zhenzhen's face.

Although there are many techniques that need to be practiced in dreams, she has not dared to sleep for hundreds of days.

Just because when I close my eyes, there is only a nightmare.

One scene is the scene of Su Yan being tortured in the sky prison.

After a while, the news returned from the Fallen Heaven Realm was completely false. Su Yan had already turned into a lump of loess in front of the emperor's mausoleum.

"Husband, I miss you so much, but I dare not miss you!"

After an unknown amount of time, Shen Xiaoxue reluctantly pulled her consciousness out of the cycle of boundless pain, rubbed her face, and thought about where to kill a few Wuxiang demons.

However, at this moment, she heard in her ears the song of a fisherman returning late from the Peach River behind her.

"One fisherman and one fishing hook can catch a whole river alone!"

In an instant, Shen Xiaoxue's body shook violently.

She stood blankly, but didn't dare to look back.

I thought it was the same dream as before.

How many times have I dreamed back in the middle of the night that I have seen the bright moon shining through the small window, and under the moon, he is smiling at her.

But when she opened her eyes or stretched out her hand, she realized that everything was a dream.

It wasn't until she heard the sound of a sampan docking from the other side that she gritted her teeth, turned around suddenly, and saw the man across the distant autumn water.

Only then did I realize what it means to search for him thousands of times in a dream, and then suddenly look back and find that person in a dimly lit place.    …

When the two of them were preparing dinner, the silver moon was already in the sky.

Su Yan was picking up the fresh fish he had just caught today. Shen Xiaoxue stood behind him, with a pair of phoenix eyes that were like fish eyes that would never close, looking at him without blinking.

"Husband, you have been suffering in the Fallen Heaven Realm this year! Why did she make things difficult for you?"

Watching Su Yan slice the fish into thin slices, Shen Xiaoxue opened her mouth several times, closed it again, and finally asked cautiously.

The mouth that dared to angrily rebuke the Nine Martial Lords in front of the civil and military officials in the court hall, every word that came out seemed to have gone through a lot of careful consideration.

"Fortunately, she just pulled me into the world of mental images and wanted to use a long time to make me change my mind." Su Yan said calmly.

"That's okay." White-haired Shen Xiaoxue was visibly relieved when she heard this.

At this time, she obviously didn't know how much weight those short, long years actually held.

At that moment, she even felt a little grateful to Liu Zhenzhen.

Although, she used a knife to kill all her pride. But he rescued Su Yan, didn't embarrass him much, and released him back.

As for the extra hint of indifference in Su Yan's words at this time, she only thought it was because she failed to protect Xue'er.

Xue'er's death was a common scar in their hearts, and Shen Xiaoxue knew that the scar in Su Yan's heart, who had single-handedly raised her daughter, was probably several times deeper than her own.

Now that they had just reunited, Shen Xiaoxue couldn't bear to uncover the scars.

After a while, Su Yan asked again: "Is there no way to recover your right arm?"

Shen Xiaoxue looked at her empty sleeves and shook her head: "No. Although her sword left a physical wound, I can still recover it with the help of the secret transmission from the other side of the ninth level."

"It's just... without you, what's the use of my right arm? To kill, all I need is my left arm."

As soon as she finished speaking, her right arm recovered in the blink of an eye, hugging Su Yan tightly from behind and pressing her face against his back.

But Su Yan's body suddenly stiffened the moment he was hugged by her, and then relaxed after a moment.

Shen Xiaoxue finally felt something strange. After all, Su Yan had always accepted her intimacy in the past, but she didn't care too much.

Until she walked around the newly built wooden houses and heard Su Yan calling her to eat outside. Just when she felt warmed by the fireworks that she hadn't experienced for a long time, she came out happily, only to see that in the casserole, something was cooking. Red spicy soup.

And Shen Xiaoxue in later generations was also stunned.

It wasn't until Su Yan's voice came, asking her why she didn't eat, that they were brought back to their minds at the same time.

"Husband, have you forgotten that I haven't been able to get into spicy food since I was a child?" Shen Xiaoxue did not pick up the pair of wooden pillars that Su Yan handed over, but looked at him steadily and asked.

Su Yan was stunned at first, looking down at the spicy soup, Xuanji said with some embarrassment: "I'm sorry, I really forgot. Just wait, I will make another one for you."

However, Shen Xiaoxue grabbed him and said in a trembling voice: "Wait a minute, how long are the so-called long years in your mind that you just said?"

She finally noticed something unusual.

How long will it take for Su Yan to forget her taste?

There was silence between the two of them for a moment.

Su Yan seemed to be considering whether he should tell her the real answer.

But in the end, he still said the number: "Five million years."

"What? How long did you say?" Shen Xiaoxue stood up suddenly and asked in disbelief.

"Five million years!" Su Yan said the second time without any hesitation.

"Five million years! How could it be five million years? Why does she have to go to such great lengths to choose the emperor? In five million years, how many times does this need to drag you into the mental image? Isn't she afraid? Is Tao Xin broken?"

Shen Xiaoxue was completely stunned.

She didn't want to believe it. According to common sense, this was impossible to happen.

How could an emperor-selecting realm reach this point?

Even if Su Yan is a warrior immortal that is hard to find in the world, it is impossible!
  But Su Yan would never lie to her.

At least, he didn't know how to do it before.

She looked at Su Yan and murmured: "If it were really five million years ago, wouldn't you have already forgotten me?"

The four words "forget me" were spoken subconsciously.

It was obvious that although Shen Xiaoxue knew that Su Yan had a deep love for her, she did not believe that this love could last for five million years.

Is there any Taoist couple in this world who dares to say that their partner will not change their mind in five million years?

And even in later generations, Shen Xiaoxue, who witnessed Su Yan's reincarnation in his mind, was shaken at this time.

Over there, when Su Yan heard her words, he seemed to have expected her reaction. He just looked at her calmly and said: "You are always like this. It is easy to change the heart of an old person, but it is easy to change the heart of an old person."

"If I have forgotten you, why should I come back? Isn't it good to stay with Liu Zhenzhen?"

"What did you say?" Shen Xiaoxue couldn't help changing her color when she heard this, and the aura around her body fluctuated violently.

No matter how much Su Yanruo hated her because of Xueer's death, she would not complain.

But if it was because of another woman, she would absolutely not be able to bear it.

Especially, that was a woman who once trampled her dignity under her feet, no matter how unwilling she was, but she still has to look up to her.

This had a greater impact on her than the former Northern Qi witch. After all, she had already killed that Northern Qi witch with her own hands.

But unlike himself at that time, Shen Xiaoxue in later generations felt like a heavy slap on the face.

Especially the sentence "It's easy to change people's hearts", but it says that people's hearts are changeable.

It seemed that he was scolding not only her then, but also her now.

Even she, who had been waiting for five million years to see Su Yan as a red butterfly, was shaken just now.

That's right, if Su Yan didn't still miss him in his heart, why would Su Yan come back.

In terms of profit, Liu Zhenzhen promised him the position of the Lord of the Fallen Heaven Realm.

In terms of time, Liu Zhenzhen has been with him for five million years.

If we look at it emotionally, Liu Zhengui is in the realm of choosing the emperor, but she is willing to bend down and be his maid, but she is the princess who wants Su Yan to serve.

Su Yan's words about staying by Liu Zhenzhen's side are not better, but that's an understatement.

What does she have that compares to Liu Zhenzhen?

"It's easy to change people's hearts, but they say that people's hearts are easy to change."

"It's so scolding! It's so scolding! It's so scolding!"

In reality, Tutu rubbed his ears excitedly while watching the simulator play the dream.

"Bunny, I'm inspired again!"

In the previous simulations, she didn't dare to pick them up unless they involved the Empress.

Otherwise, Shen Xiaoxue was too unappetizing and she didn't want to pick it up.

This time, she finally had material that satisfied her.

"The Emperor-Chosen Great Power has been waiting for you for five million years, but you chose to return to your wife, and the result is..."

Tutu's mind started to spin crazily along with his two ears.

At this time, she did not consider that once the video was released, Liu Zhenzhen, who had been surviving for a million years, might not be able to survive anymore.

Unknowingly, she, Tutu, also started to do the same thing as a certain Lezi Demon Emperor.
