Chu MuYun didn’t dare to understand Ling Xuan’s words.

Ling Xuan held his hand, regretfully but very restrainedly said: “Don’t destroy them, they are the result of your painstaking efforts.” 

For tens of thousands of years, Chu MuYun filled this world up completely. Now, if he watched it be ruined, he would definitely be the hardest hit. How could he have created them if he didn’t love them? For countless years, these living beings across the void have given him the greatest comfort and now seeing them in mourning, how could he bear it?

Chu MuYun turned to look at Ling Xuan, trying to speak in a steady voice but his heart was shaking violently: “If I go back, we will never see each other again.” 

The smile on Ling Xuan’s face froze. Those ruby-like pupils lost their luster and turned into an extremely deep dark red. He whispered: “Ah-Yun, no matter what happens this time, I will not stop you again.” 

Chu MuYun stood at a very high mountain peak, the wind blowing seemed to be mixed with the sound of crying and moaning, and it came towards his face, curling up each strand of hair, making an unspeakable expression of sorrow appear on his usually calm and indifferent face.

Ling Xuan finally couldn’t hold back and hugged him tightly, his voice hoarse because of bitterness: “I won’t do those things again and I won’t… hurt you again.” 

These thousands of years, not only was Chu MuYun changing, he was also slowly changing.

From Mo JiuShao to Yan Chen to Shen ShuiYan and Jun Mo, and finally Xie QianLan and Ling Xuan… He went from being prideful to having low self-esteem because of losing him; then he went from low self-esteem to domineering again because of losing him yet again. Then it changed from domineering to indifferent, still because of loss, until it changed from indifference to despair and then that time it was Chu MuYun who lost him.

Ever since Jun Mo, he has those erased memories, he knows what he did and he also knows what Chu MuYun did.

When he became Xie QianLan, everything reached a peak. He remembered almost everything and occupied Chu MuYun with a calm attitude but day by day, more and more he couldn’t see the end of things.

He chose to die when Chu MuYun was caught off guard.

Chu MuYun asked him: “Why?”

Xie QianLan only gave him one sentence: “You have no heart.”

He can imprison him like he did a few times before, lock him up, let him only see him and deceive himself with the thought that he had obtained him but in fact… If he couldn’t get it, he wouldn’t get it. He had played enough with him. All he needed to do was raise his hand, and his obsessions were so deep in his bones that he couldn’t sleep peacefully at night.

Repeatedly, just because Chu MuYun has no heart, he will never see the end.

But this time, he went from despair to tolerance.

Ling Xuan said to him: “Do whatever you want, don’t have any scruples.”

—He is willing to give up their love for him.

But this time, Chu MuYun wanted to be willful for once.

Why… must he stay in that lonely and desolate place, why must he shoulder the responsibility of a ‘god’, why was it that he created this world but was “imprisoned” life after life.

He doesn’t wish for it, isn’t willing to it and just doesn’t want to!

God loves selflessly and so, from the moment he fell in love with him, he is no longer a ‘god’. Thus, why should he go back?

Why abandon him and return to such a terrible empty cage?

He missed him five times, he abandoned him five times, this time, he absolutely cannot abandon him, no matter what the price is!

Chu MuYun turned around and hugged Ling Xuan, and said in a low hoarse but extra firm voice: “I want you, this time, I only want you.”

Ling Xuan’s whole body tensed up. Thousands of years ago, when he fell in love with him for the first time, what he said to him was: I want you, only you.

He thought that he would never get a response to this in his life but he didn’t expect… He finally heard this sentence from Chu MuYun’s mouth.

The huge sense of satisfaction overwhelmed him, he even hoped that he would disappear with the collapse of this world and even hoped that his life would end right here right now abruptly, so that he could always have this beauty and satisfaction, so that he would have no more fear of losing. 

Chu MuYun chose Ling Xuan and gave up this world.

Because he fell in love with someone, he stepped down from the altar, regardless of the destruction and dilapidation behind him, he insisted on going his own way and insisting on doing so.

But the way of heaven was shattered and who could escape from such a thing?

Chu MuYun is a god, so he is omnipotent.

But when he gave up this identity, his omnipotence disappeared along with it.

The world he had abandoned hated him. No matter if it was the mountains and rivers without wisdom, or the thousands of creatures with wisdom, this world created by Chu MuYun blamed all the natural disasters they encountered on their “God”.

Why did the god who protected them disappear? Why did the god who favored them disappear? Why did the God who maintained all balance abandon them?

Are they forsaken and forgotten by God?

In a world like hell, the wrath of all spirits erupted.

Chu MuYun needs to pay the price for what he did.

He who wanted to abandon this world for his own personal reasons, waited for a fierce backlash that was enough to wipe him out.

No one thought of this and, when Chu MuYun realized it, it was already too late.

He will disappear with this world. After going round and round so many times, he can only leave him again in the end.

I’m sorry. Ah-Xuan, I’m sorry…

But when the ‘Wrath of All Spirits’ came, Ling Xuan stood in front of him and endured it for him.

Chu MuYun was completely shocked.

Even he would never be able to bear this catastrophe. No matter how talented Ling Xuan is, no matter how great his potential is, and the speed at which he learns things is astonishingly fast, he is only a few thousand years old… and he has gone through so many times of ‘reincarnation’ in these thousands of years.

How could he bear it!

When Chu MuYun came back to his senses, Ling Xuan was already lying in his arms, his red eyes were closed and the blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth, staining the whole earth red.

This was the first time Chu MuYun knew what tears were.

—The flow from his eyes was bitingly cold but it is no match for one-thousandth of the ice lake of despair in the heart.

In the end, Chu MuYun returned to that void, to that primordial chaos, guarding the soul that was already weak enough to disappear at any time.

He returned and so the disasters stopped and the broken world finally woke up from hell.

But Chu MuYun was no longer in the mood to pay attention to these things. He just wants to wait for him to come back, this time he won’t provoke him again, as long as he can look at him from a distance, he will be satisfied.

Fortunately he can forget everything.

Let him forget the entire memory from those six lives and let him be alone in this empty cage, in a constant state of loneliness.

    ***

The memory stops here.

Chu MuYun, who suddenly woke up, was still in a daze… When he saw the red-haired young man standing there, a picture of despair suddenly appeared in his mind and he quickly approached him and kissed him, feeling completely out of control.

He was alive… still alive.
