The setting sun was like blood, sprinkling its afterglow.
In midair, Ling Xian hugged Lin Qing Yi tightly. His smile was pure and innocent.
All these years, he had not stopped thinking about Lin Qing Yi. Now that the beauty was in his arms, his heart was as sweet as honey, and he could not bear to let go.
Even if there were thousands of people watching, he did not want to let go of Lin Qingyi.
"Ling Xian …"
Lin Qingyi shyly whispered, "There are so many people watching, can you let me go?"
"I'm not letting go. I'm afraid that if I let go, you'll leave again." Ling Xian inhaled Lin Qing Yi's fragrant scent, greedily thinking about her body and the beauty of their embrace.
"I will not leave again. Back then, I lied to you that I had already died. I had no choice." Lin Qing Yi softly sighed. Back then, she was nearing the end of her lifespan and was too old to face Ling Xian.
"I know you have your difficulties, but you should believe me. Believe that my love will not change because of you."
Ling Xian stroked Lin Qing Yi's long hair and sighed, "A lie made you suffer from lovesickness and made me feel pain. Was it worth it?"
"I have never doubted your love. I just don't want to drag you down."
Lin Qing Yi felt guilty, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have lied to you."
"Fool."
Ling Xian smiled gently, "Let's not talk about the past. Promise me that you will never leave again."
"I'm sticking to you. Even if you chase me away, I won't leave."
Lin Qing Yi smiled and said softly, "Alright, let me go."
"I won't." Ling Xian shook his head, unwilling to let go of Lin Qing Yi's body. He was afraid that if he let go, the beauty in his arms would disappear.
"Oh, you." Lin Qingyi smiled. Her jade-like hands formed a seal, and the space between her eyebrows lit up.
Two golden ancient characters appeared, one life and one death, mysterious and unfathomable.
Then, the word "death" was imprinted between Lin Qing Yi's brows and the word "life" was imprinted between Ling Xian's brows.
"This is …" Ling Xian frowned. He knew Lin Qing Yi would not harm him, so he did not stop her.
"Life and Death Contract."
"The Life Seal is the master, and the Death Seal is the servant. If you die, I will also die."
Lin Qing Yi softly smiled, "If I die first, then my true blood will transform into a mysterious force. Though I don't know what it will be used for, I can be sure that it will only benefit you and not harm you."
"Lin Qing Yi, have you gone mad?" Ling Xian's face darkened. The Pact of Life and Death was beneficial to him, but it was detrimental to Lin Qing Yi.
His path was too dangerous. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a narrow escape from death.
Once he dies, no matter what level Lin Qing Yi is at, no matter where he is, he will die.
"I'm very sober."
Lin Qing Yi softly said, "If you die, there's no point in me living. I might as well accompany you to the afterlife."
"But I don't want you to die."
Ling Xian's expression was heavy as still water. He didn't care about the benefits. Even if he could become immortal and dominate the world, he didn't want to trade Lin Qing Yi's death.
"Once the contract of life and death is established, it cannot be broken. If you don't want me to die, then work hard on your cultivation."
Lin Qing Yi gently smiled, "If you are undefeatable, then neither you nor I will die."
"There's no solution …"
Ling Xian bitterly shook his head. Undefeatable was easier said than done. Even Ao Tian the Immortal didn't dare to claim he was undefeatable.
"Alright, don't be angry."
Lin Qing Yi fondled Ling Xian's face and smiled, "To be able to accompany you to the afterlife, I have no regrets."
"Qing Yi, you are too dumb." Ling Xian softly sighed. Lin Qing Yi's love was deep, making others want to protect her.
Everyone was moved as well. They didn't think there would be such an infatuated woman in this world.
"So be it. Who asked me to meet you?" Lin Qing Yi's smile bloomed like a flower.
"From this moment on, I have another reason to be undefeatable." Ling Xian looked at Lin Qing Yi in a serious manner. At first, being undefeatable was his dream. Then, it became to protect the universe.
Now, it was for Lin Qing Yi.
"Do you want to know how I survived and how my face recovered?" Lin Qing Yi's lips parted slightly as she hugged Ling Xian tightly.
Ling Xian nodded softly. He wanted to know what Lin Qing Yi had been through all these years.
"Back then, I watched you leave the Palace of the Seventh Princess. I was heartbroken and I wanted to die."
"Just as I wanted to end my life and make the lie come true, the mysterious inheritance I received appeared and guided me out of the Taoism community. I came to the City of Zhi Ge."
"Then, I received the other half of the inheritance and fell into a deep sleep."
"That sleep lasted 30 years."
Lin Qing Yi exclaimed, "When I woke up, I was already a cultivator of the seventh level. I can live for thousands of years and my face has recovered."
"I see. The Pact of Life and Death came from the inheritance you received?" Ling Xian's eyes darkened. He felt lucky that Lin Qing Yi received the inheritance. Or else the lie would've come true.
"That's right. After I received the other half of the inheritance, I realized it was the inheritance of a real immortal." Lin Qing Yi played with her bangs. Her beauty was out of this world.
"The inheritance of a real immortal?"
Ling Xian was a little startled, "No wonder the Pact of Life and Death cannot be broken."
"The purpose of the Pact of Life and Death is to die together. Don't even think about breaking it."
Lin Qing Yi smiled and pressed her face against Ling Xian's chest. She mumbled, "We won't be separated again, right?"
"If you don't leave me, I won't give up. If you leave me, I will chase after you."
Ling Xian stroked Lin Qing Yi's long hair. He wanted to marry her and consummate their marriage.
"Ehem, ehem, can you two pay attention?" Ye Hua Shang coughed drily. She couldn't watch anymore.
Everyone else did the same.
Lin Qing Yi was an affectionate person and Ling Xian was also an infatuated person.
"Miss Ye, long time no see." Ling Xian grinned, knowing that the beautiful woman the Snow Lion was talking about was Lin Qing Yi.
This made him feel lucky. If Lin Qing Yi didn't save Ye Hua Shang, he wouldn't be able to complete his foundation and dominate the world.
"I have no way to repay your kindness. Please accept a bow from me." Ye Hua Shang bowed down to Ling Xian. Her gratitude was beyond words.
Ling Xian killed the House of Wan Sheng and not only saved her daughter, but he also freed her from her worries. How could she not be grateful?
"You are being too polite. I am here to ask a favor." Ling Xian wiped off his smile.
"Please speak. Even if I have to climb a mountain of swords or dive into a sea of fire, I will not refuse." Ye Hua Shang said in a low voice.
"Do you still remember what you said to me before we parted?"
"If I have any regrets, I can go find you."
"I wonder if those words still count?"
Ling Xian looked at Ye Hua Shang seriously. There was hope and uncertainty.
Today was without a doubt, double happiness. He met Ye Hua Shang and he met Lin Qing Yi.
But if Ye Hua Shang cannot help him complete his foundation, then all that was left was happiness.
"Of course it counts. I wonder where your regrets lie?" Ye Hua Shang nodded seriously.
"I entered the Undefeatable Realm but failed to reach the ninth undefeatable realm. Does Miss Ye have a way?" Ling Xian was nervous. For the first time in his life, he was this nervous.
"I …" Ye Hua Shang hesitated. She glanced at Lin Qing Yi and stopped talking.
"Miss Ye has no way?" Ling Xian frowned. If even Ye Hua Shang has no way, then he really has no hope.
"It's not that I don't have a way, it's that it's hard to talk about it."
Ye Hua Shang smiled awkwardly, "Luckily, I know Sister Qing Yi. Or else I wouldn't know what to say."
