On the fifth month that the woman in pink had been by Wang Lin's side, Wang Lin opened his eyes and let out a mouthful of foul air. The dimness in his eyes dissipated and was replaced with a bright light.
However, there was still fatigue hidden within that bright light. In the battle against Ye Mo's child, Wang Lin had been injured by the Heaven Ripping spell. That spell was so powerful that even thinking about it made him feel terrified.
"You're awake …" The beautiful woman in pink who was sitting on the side looked at Wang Lin. Her eyes shined brightly and she smiled softly. "You're awake …"
"She left?"
Wang Lin looked back and saw that Xi Zifeng was gone. There was only Mu Bingmei sitting motionlessly in the distance.
The woman in pink softly said, "You took more than a year to heal. Big Sister Xi Zi has already left." She looked at Wang Lin with a smile and then spoke.
"Before she left, she asked me to pass on a message to you. She went to planet Qing Ling, but she didn't find the disciple you spoke of, Xie Qing … Wang Lin silently pondered for a moment and nodded.
At this moment, the two of them seemed to have nothing to talk about. As Wang Lin became silent, the woman in pink also became silent.
The star system was very quiet. When there were no Outer Realm cultivators coming, one would occasionally see some bright nebulae in the dark sky.
Their faint light appeared very beautiful in the dark starry sky.
The nebulas accompanied the man and woman, and there seemed to be some indescribable ripples echoing between them.
After a long time, the woman in pink looked at Wang Lin with a complicated expression and softly said, "It has been many years since we parted … You … Do you know who I am …"
Wang Lin didn't look at the woman but looked at the Inner Realm and calmly said, "Red Butterfly."
"So you already know." The woman in pink closed her eyes.
"It was Zhou Wutai who reminded me. He found a formation in Xue Yue, and there was a strand of your hair inside it. I presume the calamity you spoke of back then was offset by it." The formation he had seen before appeared before Wang Lin's eyes.
This woman in pink was Red Butterfly!
However, the arrogant woman had changed a lot due to the passage of time. That pride was hidden in her heart, and it was impossible to tell from her appearance that she was as red as a butterfly.
"Do you still remember the Rain Celestial Realm back then … Back then, we battled …" Red Butterfly smiled as she recalled the past. She and Wang Lin were like friends as they chatted.
"There was a day when I hated you, Wang Lin. You cut off my arm in the Rain Celestial Realm …" Wang Lin wryly smiled and subconsciously rubbed his nose. He didn't speak.
"I didn't think that after 2,000 years, we would still be able to talk and laugh …" When Red Butterfly saw Wang Lin rub his nose, she smiled. Her eyes narrowed into crescent moons, and they were very beautiful.
"Back then, it was you who wanted to kill me, I didn't provoke you." Wang Lin shook his head and also smiled.
"Although Little Sister Xi Zi left, she left some wine for you." Red Butterfly looked at Wang Lin and waved her jade-like hand. The wine jug appeared in her hand and she handed it to Wang Lin.
Wang Lin took the jug and took a sip.
Red Butterfly smiled and said, "Also, on Suzaku, we battled and you stole my Soul Lasher …"
"It's all in the past. You still remember." Wang Lin bitterly smiled again and didn't know what to say.
"Of course I remember. If I wasn't heavily injured, I wouldn't have been controlled by Qian Feng … Speaking of which, thank you for freeing me from reincarnation in Rosefinch." Thinking about the past, Red Butterfly let out a sigh.
"There's no deep hatred between us. Everything is in the past now.
You told me to go to the Snowy Realm to find the blue rose, and I found it. "
"Red Butterfly was the woman that left the deepest impression on Wang Lin, aside from Li Muwan and Liu Mei.
That figure that was as red as a butterfly and that proud woman were unforgettable to him.
She reached the Soul Formation Stage in 100 years and was definitely a pampered woman!
"At that time, I also didn't expect you to achieve what you have today … Everything is like a dream. It feels unreal." Red Butterfly shook her head.
Time slowly passed. In the blink of an eye, three days had passed. During these three days, Wang Lin didn't heal his injuries. Instead, he went through his memories with Red Butterfly and slowly found the feeling of being a weak cultivator on Suzaku.
This feeling was very warm and comfortable.
"Later, when the Luo Tian battled the Alliance, I saw you … But you didn't recognize me."
Red Butterfly looked at Wang Lin. She watched him step by step on Suzaku and the dazzling light that slowly spread until it shrouded the entire Inner and Outer Realms.
Red Butterfly admired Wang Lin in her heart.
In Red Butterfly's life, there was no one she admired. If there was anyone, it was Wang Lin. There was no love between the two of them, but there was an indescribable feeling that even she didn't know what it was.
Perhaps it was like wine. After a long time, there would naturally be a sense of closeness.
The conversation between the two of them slowly calmed down after several days. Wang Lin began to cultivate again while Red Butterfly silently sat there and looked at the stars. There was confusion, complexity, and brightness in her eyes.
One month, two months … Unknowingly, the ninth month of the second year passed in a flash.
On this day, a gentle blue light appeared in the starry sky outside the formation. It gradually filled the entire starry sky and replaced the dazzling light of the starry sky, causing the area outside the formation to be filled with blue light.
This blue light was like the sea, and as it spread out, it dyed the wheel formation. It gave off a sad beauty.
Blue often gave people a sense of sadness, like melancholy.
Wang Lin opened his eyes and silently looked at the blue light outside the formation. He saw two figures walk out from the blue light that filled the stars.
It was a man and a woman, father and daughter. They were Dao Master Blue Dream and Li Qianmei.
After pondering for one year and nine months, Dao Master Blue Dream had chosen to come. He and his daughter stopped outside the formation.
Wang Lin's gaze went past Dao Master Blue Dream and landed on Li Qianmei.
Li Qianmei had lost a lot of weight.
Her expression was bleak and she no longer had the charm she had in the past. When Wang Lin looked at her, she also looked at Wang Lin with a bitter expression.
In this world, aside from Li Muwan, the only other women that Wang Lin could remember were Liu Mei because of Wang Ping, Red Butterfly because of their karma, and Li Qianmei because of a beautiful and unforgettable encounter.
They got to know each other because of three questions and met again and again because of their unregrettable pursuit. Li Qianmei's words from the past had always remained in Wang Lin's heart.
"If one day I'm no longer here, will you still remember that there was a woman in your life? Her name was Li Qianmei …"
Li Qianmei was someone that Wang Lin couldn't choose to forget. After 10 years of blood, her beauty withered, and she went to ask for medicine for him without any regrets. In the crack in the Cloud Sea, she closed her eyes that showed no regret even in death.
For her, Wang Lin went to the Outer Realm to find Dao Master Blue Dream. He went to keep Li Qianmei alive … until the moment she awakened. Wang Lin was in the sky above Mount Blue, resisting the endless rebound pressure. He just wanted to see if she had awakened.
However, that sentence, "Who are you?" was like a blade that cut through everything!
That sentence allowed Wang Lin to understand a lot. He gave up resisting and allowed the rebound pressure from Mount Blue to push him back further and further away.
Wang Lin looked at Li Qianmei for a long time and then softly said, "You've lost weight …"
Li Qianmei's body trembled and tears flowed down from the corners of her eyes. She had long since awakened her memories and remembered what happened in the past. When she heard Wang Lin's words, she couldn't hold it back anymore and tears flowed down.
Red Butterfly watched all of this and was startled. She looked at the two of them and silently stood on the side.
Dao Master Blue Dream let out a sigh and walked toward the formation with Li Qianmei. In the blink of an eye, they were less than 100 feet from the formation. The wheel formation buzzed and began to activate.
Wang Lin's gaze moved away from Li Qianmei. When he looked at Dao Master Blue Dream, his eyes shined brightly, but this light soon disappeared.
He waved his hand and the wheel formation stopped. An oval light appeared before Dao Master Blue Dream that led to Wang Lin.
Dao Master Blue Dream didn't hesitate to bring Li Qianmei into the light. With one step, he arrived before Wang Lin and sat down. He looked at the Emperor Furnace behind Wang Lin and his gaze became gentle.
"I know you like wine. This is the Blue Silk Wine I brewed myself. Do you want to drink?" Dao Master Blue Dream waved his right hand and a blue wine jug floated toward Wang Lin.
Wang Lin looked at Dao Master Blue Dream. He smiled, accepted the wine, and placed it on the side.
Dao Master Blue Dream took out a jug of wine, took a sip, and slowly said, "I rarely look at a person in my life. Now that I'm here, I admit that I've underestimated you … I had to act inside the Reality Illusion Formation. On one hand, it was for myself, and on the other hand, it was for my daughter … At that time, I always thought that although you were excellent, if you didn't cut off your connection with the Inner Realm, you weren't qualified to become my son-in-law …"
"I didn't expect you to reach your current cultivation level by yourself … Give me the five concubines and become my son-in-law … From now on, I'll bring the Blue Silk Clan into the Inner Realm!
My bones will clear the path ahead for you! "
Dao Master Blue Dream took a big gulp of wine and spoke of the decision he had made after thinking for one year and nine months.
Li Qianmei's body trembled and she turned to look at her father. On the way here, her father hadn't said anything. She knew that her father was one of the Five Masters of the Ancient Star System. With his status and cultivation, he didn't just say these words for her mother … Dao Master Blue Dream calmly said, "Let bygones be bygones … Wang Lin, I'll wait here for your reply."
