"Don't struggle now. I just want you to feel a little warm. My body is very warm, don't you think?" Bai Yunyu said.

Han Ye finally stopped struggling and closed his eyes. He wouldn't lie that his wife's body was warm, a total contrast to his cold as corpse body.

If he could, he wanted to tell his wife that his body was very warm and was always warm, just like how the first time they met.

'You covered me with your warmth. I cannot help but get attached to you. You're the only one who could make me feel alive and loved, wife….'

"Yes, your body is very warm, Bai Yunyu…." Han Ye murmured. His heart started beating very slowly, but there was definitely a reaction. His body also started getting warmer and warmer.

Bai Yunyu might not realize it because he wasn't the one experiencing it, but his warmth made Han Ye feel better.

'I could repeat this cycle over thousand times, maybe even more, as long as I could feel this fleeting happiness of being embraced by you, my beloved wife.'

Bai Yunyu noticed the evil god nestled deeper into him and hugged him tighter until there was no gap between them.

Bai Yunyu sighed deeply. He knew that he wasn't supposed to do this.

But when Yunyu saw the sadness in this evil god's eyes, his instinct told him to embrace the evil god, despite what the evil god had done.

'I don't know why did I embrace you either. Maybe because you're using Han Ye Gege's face, maybe because I simply pity you. But I did what my instinct told me to do,' Bai Yunyu thought.

Thus, he followed his instinct even more and said, "I don't know how to help you with this. But you should know that your wife loves you. He also loves you but cannot remove the thorn in his heart even after millennia. That's why this vicious cycle keeps repeating."

…

"What do you know about my wife and me? You're my enemy!" Han Ye said. He started struggling, but Bai Yunyu hugged him even tighter.

"I may not know the story about you and your wife. I'm not even sure what I'm saying right now," Bai Yunyu said, feeling hopeless that he might've said something wrong. "It's just… I think… if I'm your wife, I will probably say something similar to what I said just now."

Han Ye thought that his wife had recovered his memory. But he hadn't because what he said was based on instinct.

'Heh, you say this when you don't know about yourself. But after you recover your memory, the only thing you will say is that I need to be destroyed. You choose to destroy me over and over because I'm just a plague to you.'

'Things never change, my love. But I'm stupidly still in love and will forever be in love with you.'

Bai Yunyu finally released his embrace after a while, and Han Ye felt at lost when his wife finally let go.

He wanted to embrace him more. At least let him embrace his wife for a century, so he'd feel satisfied before they went into this vicious cycle again.

But we couldn't always have nice things in life, such as Han Ye. His real identity was the God of Creation, the God of Nothingness, and the most powerful god ever.

He, too, couldn't get what he wanted.

Which was his wife's love.

"W—Well, do you need to talk more before I return? I really need that underworld olive," Bai Yunyu said.

Han Ye smiled bitterly. Of course, his wife wanted to embrace him because he cared for someone else.

But he might be asking too much if he said he wanted to be embraced even more.

So he handed the underworld olive to Bai Yunyu and turned around, "Feed your disciple that olive, he will die soon after, but his soul will stay on earth. However, he cannot follow you to the Forest of Lost Mist or the immortal realm because he is not originated from either of those places."

"If you want to bring him to your realm, you need the vial of death. You can suck his soul inside the vial and contain him until you arrive in your realm, then he will be free roaming around the immortal realm," Han Ye explained.

"Then, do you have the vial of the death?" Yunyu asked.

"I forgot about it. Return to me after a year in the mortal realm, then I will give it to you," the evil god said with the edge of his lips perked up.

Bai Yunyu peered suspiciously. Of course, he knew this guy was just fucking around. He must have that thing in his hand already, but he wanted to delay it so they could meet again.

'Well, there is no hurting in this. He seems reasonable. Honestly, I think I'm giving him leniency because he used Han Ye Gege's face. I'm such a face-con,' Yunyu blamed himself for being weak to Han Ye Gege's face, but he couldn't do anything about it. He just couldn't see that face looking sad.

"Fine, I will return after a year in the mortal realm. You better have it when I'm here," Bai Yunyu said.

"Heh, you're the one in need, but it sounds like you're ordering me of what to do," Han Ye said. "If you're married to a man, you will be an overbearing wife. I bet your husband will be a henpecked husband."

[Well…]

[Pupa: He's not wrong. All of your husbands in previous worlds are henpecked husbands.]

[I—I mean, it's because they are all scoundrels! If I didn't straighten them up, they would continuously try to jump on me and ask for a fuck!]

[Pupa: That one is not wrong either.]

"I—I'm not that overbearing! My husbands from the previous worlds are just stupid! That's why I have to teach them a lesson sometimes— well, every time!"
