Quick Transmigration: Still Life Fairy

Chapter 397 A Life Under Conquest (The End) + Little Stone and Little Ginseng

"God Lord..."

"If I said I was deceived, would you... believe me?"

In the end, the nine-tailed fox managed to utter two sentences with a dry voice.

Her voice had lost its former allure and become dry and unpleasant.

"What difference does it make whether you believe or not?" Yan Ning was completely unaffected by her; he found her feigning helplessness utterly laughable. "From the very beginning, you have been Liu'er's enemy. If you are her enemy, then you are also my enemy. So what is there to trust?"

"..."

These blunt words nearly shattered all of the nine-tailed fox's hopes, and she lowered her head in despair.

"Um... Aning, who is Liu'er?"

In the silence, a voice, filled with confusion and hesitation, asked.

"I feel like this title sounds familiar..."

Yu Liu stood not far from Yan Ning, her eyes filled with confusion.

Yan Ning and the Nine-Tailed Fox were startled; they had completely forgotten that Yu Liu was standing right next to them.

"Liu... Yuliu."

Yan Ning suddenly didn't know what to do.

Yu Liu looked blankly at the nine-tailed fox: "...Yue Rou?"

She tentatively uttered the name. Just now, the name had almost unconsciously popped into her mind. She subconsciously knew that Yue Rou was the name of the nine-tailed fox.

When Yu Liu called out her name, the nine-tailed fox Yue Rou's pupils shrank to the size of pinholes almost instantly, revealing a deep fear within.

"You... remember?"

She said those words with a trembling voice.

Her body was trembling uncontrollably. The reason she had been so arrogant before was entirely because she knew Yu Liu's situation, which was why she dared to make a move. Hatred could indeed sometimes cloud her judgment, but all these years she had buried her hatred deep inside, never daring to cause trouble for Xiao Liu, precisely because of her fear.

After learning what had happened to Xiao Liu'er, she knew her chance had come. Xiao Liu'er's power was too great; even though she had been reborn, forgotten her past, and lost all her power, she dared not be careless.

Following the trail of Yu Liu's journey through time, she found this world and had been observing it ever since. The once invincible little willow was now just a weak demon. She did retain some of the little willow's power, but what use was it? As long as she had no memories, her power would remain sealed, and it would never loosen no matter what.

That's why she dared to take action.

But what is the situation now?

Lord Taiming... is still alive!

Yu Liu actually remembered who she was!

Under the tense gazes of the Nine-Tailed Fox and Yan Ning, Yu Liu tilted her head slightly, her expression still full of confusion: "Remember... what?"

Upon hearing this, the nine-tailed fox instantly breathed a sigh of relief.

Yan Ning couldn't describe his feelings. He wanted Yu Liu to retain Xiao Liu'er's memories, but he also didn't want her to remember those terrible past events. This conflicting feeling left him unsure how to face Xiao Liu'er.

"Ah Ning, are you hiding something from me?"

Their reactions were so obvious, and Yu Liu isn't blind, how could she not see them? There's clearly something going on here.

For example, she had never met this nine-tailed fox, so how did she know that her name was Yue Rou? Moreover, she knew that Yue Rou and Yue Sheng were sisters, half-sisters.

She knew perfectly well that she didn't have the ability to see through other people's identities at a glance. The only reason she could have such thoughts was that she originally knew Yue Rou.

But I don't remember Yue Rou, this nine-tailed fox.

"Did I forget something?"

Yu Liu wasn't stupid; she quickly realized the problem.

Yan Ning forced a smile and said, "No."

His expression was gentle as he reached out and placed his hand on Yu Liu's forehead: "While I was away, did you not take good care of yourself again? You seem to have a slight fever."

He changed the subject.

"You're lying to me."

Yu Liu's expression was calm and clear-headed.

"I know you're lying to me! Although I'm inhabiting someone else's identity in this world, I'm still a fairy. I can't possibly be sick with a fever. You're lying!"

Unless there are special circumstances, Yu Liu's transmigration usually results in her possessing an object and becoming a fairy, and this world is no exception.

After transforming into a fairy, her physique greatly improved, and she rarely caught a cold or fever. Moreover, she didn't feel unwell at all. Yu Liu could clearly sense that Yan Ning seemed to be trying to hide something; he didn't want her to know.

"...Can't you tell me?"

She looked directly into Yan Ning's eyes: "If you can't say, then I won't ask."

In Yu Liu's heart, if there truly were lost memories, Yan Ning was more important than those memories themselves. She didn't need to know the reason; if the memory issues would harm Yan Ning, she would rather not know. Past memories were ultimately the past; they were gone, so why force them? Even if enemies like the Nine-Tailed Fox were still lurking in the shadows, she wasn't afraid. She would face whatever came her way; there was nothing she couldn't handle, as long as Aning was there.

Yu Liu's understanding nature filled Yan Ning with a pang of guilt. He truly couldn't say that Liu'er's subconscious still retained Yu Liu's image, which only meant that this form would minimize the harm. Rebirth wasn't something to be taken lightly.

"sorry."

These words made Yu Liu realize that she couldn't know the truth. She nodded and calmly accepted the result.

"It's alright, I haven't even had a chance to thank Aning for saving me in time!"

Yan Ning couldn't help but hug Yu Liu tightly.

An embrace brings two hearts close together, offering each other comfort.

Upon witnessing this scene, the fear in the nine-tailed fox's eyes gradually faded, replaced by renewed hatred.

"You..." She instantly stood up, her nine tails swaying behind her: "Die!!!"

"Be careful!!"

Yu Liu was facing the nine-tailed fox when she saw this scene and quickly reminded Yan Ning.

Yan Ning swiftly dodged the nine-tailed fox's attack while holding Yu Liu, put Yu Liu on the ground, and rushed towards the nine-tailed fox.

He had somehow already grasped a broadsword in his hand and slashed at the nine-tailed fox.

He didn't hold back with this move.

Xiao Liu'er and his situation are not good at the moment, and he does not want the enemy to have a chance to survive.

Knowing the strength of the Divine Lord Taiming, and knowing that she could not withstand this attack, the Nine-Tailed Fox smiled and opened her arms as the attack was about to strike, welcoming the sword that her former beloved had turned against her.

"Bye now……"

Her calm demeanor aroused Yan Ning's suspicion, but the attack was already irreversible, so he could only become wary.

The longsword struck the nine-tailed fox, whose figure instantly became illusory and gradually faded away. At the same time, a phantom shadow suddenly appeared on her body. It was a broad-bladed longsword, exactly the same as the one in Yan Ning's hand, but it looked somewhat ethereal and seemed to have no substance.

The longsword flew towards Yu Liu the moment it was formed.

"Symbiotic Spell!!"

Yan Ning was startled and reacted quickly to intercept the broadsword flying towards Yu Liu.

Unfortunately it's still too late.

When Yu Liu heard Yan Ning mention the Symbiotic Curse, she probably already had a feeling that she was going to die there. The Symbiotic Curse, as the name suggests, links the lives of the caster and the cursed to one another. Clearly, the Nine-Tailed Fox had secretly cast the Symbiotic Curse on her without her knowledge. Now, the Nine-Tailed Fox was completely defenseless, allowing herself to be struck by Yan Ning's sword; she was certain to die. Yu Liu, having been cursed as well, would likely meet the same fate.

Yu Liu was quite composed.

The longsword conjured by the divine incantation struck Yu Liu. There was no splatter of blood, nor the sound of the sword piercing her body. Yu Liu was like a balloon that could be easily popped. The moment the virtual sword touched her, all the air in her body deflated, and her body shrank rapidly until she became a tiny hairpin.

"Ding Dong——"

The metal hair clip fell to the ground with a crisp sound. Yan Ning stopped in her tracks, paused, and bent down to pick it up.

……

"Yuesheng, do you know who Yuerou is?"

Having calmly accepted her death, and unsure whether her wishes had been fulfilled, Yu Liu, upon being brought back to the Reincarnation Palace by the Reincarnation Well, immediately asked Yue Sheng, who was painting.

Although Yu Liu told Yan Ning in the previous small world that she shouldn't tell, that didn't mean she wasn't curious. In fact, the curious cat in her heart had been itching to get out of control for a long time.

Since Aning is unwilling to talk, she will find someone who is willing to talk. If no one is willing to talk, then she will be helpless.

Upon hearing this question, Yue Sheng paused, his pen still in his hand. "What happened? You wouldn't bring up my sister for no reason, would you?"

"Sister?" Yu Liu skipped over to Yue Sheng's desk, squatted down, rested her elbows on the desk, and propped her chin up with her hand: "Yue Rou is your sister? You've never told me you have a sister..."

Meeting Yu Liu's curious eyes, Yue Sheng said helplessly, "There's nothing to mention. She... isn't a good person. She committed a crime and was imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison for a while. After she came out, she's been quite well-behaved."

"Being imprisoned in the dungeon? That's no small crime! What did she do?" Yu Liu continued to press on relentlessly.

"Why do you ask so many questions?"

Yue Sheng decided not to continue answering. Back then, her mind was damaged, and she didn't remember much of those things, so there was nothing to say, especially since they weren't good things.

"I'm just curious! I ran into her, and she caused me trouble, disfigured me, and even tried to kill me! I had to find out what happened!"

Yu Liu's words made perfect sense, and Yue Sheng couldn't refute them. If Yu Liu really met Yue Rou, it was inevitable that she would become curious.

"You've got your suspicions too, haven't you? You guessed right, there are some things you don't remember. Actually, there's something I've never told you..." Yue Sheng knew that the more you hide something, the more it arouses curiosity. She also knew that Yu Liu dared to ask so persistently because she probably already had suspicions. So she simply laid it all out on the table.

"The reason I've been supervising you to fulfill your wish is that, in addition to the power of your wish increasing your strength, the increase in the power of your wish can also loosen the seal within your body. It is this seal that makes you forget everything."

Yue Sheng lied about these words. Initially, he genuinely wanted to enhance Yu Liu's strength by granting her the power of her wish. However, later, the memories stored in the Lingxiao Palace broke through the seal and entered Yu Liu's body. Yu Liu didn't recall these memories; they remained sealed within her body. Occasionally, when Yu Liu's emotions fluctuated greatly, the seal would be broken.

"Are there any other ways to loosen the seal?"

Yu Liu continued to press for answers, this situation fueling her intense curiosity about her past memories. She wanted to know what kind of person she had been before, why she had become like this, and what had happened.

"No."

Yuesheng answered crisply and decisively.

Yu Liu was not disappointed; she simply nodded.

……

"It's so hot today!"

My leaves are all wilting~

"Ugh—when will it rain?!"

"Stone, Stone, why aren't you saying anything?"

"Stone, what's wrong? You're burning up, and I'm burning up too. When will this ever end?"

How long will this drought last?

"Stone, Stone, look! It's terrible! My leaves are turning yellow!!!"

"My roots can't find any water..."

"If this continues, I'll die!"

A soft, gentle murmur filled the air as Yu Liu half-closed her eyes, drifting off to sleep in the midday sun.

"Stone!!!"

The delicate voice grew louder, filled with undisguised anger. "Are you even listening to me?!"

"Hey, are you asleep again?!"

"Stone, get up! You're a fairy, what fairy sleeps all day? Get up!!"

The soft leaves rested on the stones, tapping and banging incessantly.

"Stop making trouble!!"

Yu Liu felt a little uncomfortable from being knocked, and struggled to turn over, wanting to continue sleeping.

"Don't sleep!!"

The green leaf kept poking at me.

"Why can't I sleep?" Yu Liu was listless, though this wasn't visible on the stone's surface. "You didn't care about my sleep for the past few days!"

"Today is different!"

The owner of the leaf shuddered. "I have a feeling that danger is approaching today. It doesn't seem very safe here. Can you please not sleep?"

Yu Liu, sounding sleepy and with a slightly hoarse voice, said, "How long have we been here? What danger have we encountered? Don't be so paranoid. It's so hot lately, you should get some rest!"

"Stone, don't sleep! Listen to me, I really sense danger! You know my intuition, though sometimes it's not accurate, but when it is, it's incredibly accurate. What if it is!"

"I don't want to hear it! I want to sleep. The sun feels so nice; it would be a shame not to enjoy it!"

Yu Liu didn't care at all; she closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep.
