"Why is it like this, why is it like this!"

In the sky, a face that had shrunk countless times from its original size, almost to that of a kite, began to roar.

When it tried to destroy one thing, the other helped; and when it attempted to destroy the other, this helped in return!

Li Zhiyuan: "It finally chose to target you alone, which shows it doesn't have much energy left; letting it destroy you first, I am not entirely confident to face it alone; but if we join forces, we can win without fail.

I choose the latter."

The body didn't care about choices but instead looked at Li Zhiyuan: "You haven't changed?"

When Li Zhiyuan first entered the room, what was his mood like, and now, he is still in that same mood.

Li Zhiyuan shook his head: "After repeatedly destroying and rebuilding my life so many times, how could there be no change?"

The body: "Then what is this change?"

Li Zhiyuan: "In the repeated cycles, I've numbed the bad and unwanted memories, and made the memories I like clearer.

So, it was just a little uncomfortable at first, but afterwards, it was actually quite beautiful and warm."

The self once disguised, the performance in front of Li Lan on purpose, he chose to numb in repeated experiences; focusing on the memories of time spent with the Grandmaster, Alii, and the fellow companions.

The past years rushed by, unable to stop, let alone recollect, but now, he reminisced to his heart's content, and many regrets were made up for in memory.

Grandmaster took him to Shanghai for eye treatment, once emotionally overwhelmed, holding himself and weeping in the alley, back then, he wanted to smile and comfort Grandmaster, but no matter how hard he tried he couldn't smile, now, he finally smiled.

When his hand grabbed Run Sheng's incense and scalded himself, facing an angry and disappointed Alii, he couldn't show regret and grievance in time, this time, he expressed it.

The past cannot be changed, but it can slowly be soothed in memory, and this time, he soothed completely.

And finally understood, the true meaning of the word 'release'.

The body: "How did you come to think to do this?"

Li Zhiyuan: "Is it hard? Grandmaster can do it, or rather, most normal aging people can."

The body: "Is it that simple?"

Li Zhiyuan: "Those who pursue immortality won't."

The rain was still falling.

Li Zhiyuan and the body's memories were still being destroyed, but the intensity of the attack was much weaker than before.

The body: "Shall we fight back?"

Li Zhiyuan: "Okay, divide the memories into two halves, I'll defend the latter half, you probably like the first half more."

The body: "Sure."

Li Zhiyuan: "After it's over, we'll reset each other's missing memories, both holding half, so no need to fear the other playing tricks."

The body: "You might not like the first half of the memories."

Li Zhiyuan: "Without the first half as a backdrop, how can one appreciate the beauty of the latter half?"

The two looked up, facing the small cloud and the drifting human face above, beginning to take the initiative to strike.

The raindrops falling on them were half rebounded.

After a period of stalemate, the small cloud in the sky grew smaller, and the human face returned to normal size.

It lost.

There was no thrilling scene of slaughter, yet it lost in its most proficient domain.

It couldn't even make excuses about not being at its peak, because the teenager in front of him wasn't yet mature either.

The human face fell, came before Li Zhiyuan, and said anxiously:

"Quickly, I'm about to disappear, quickly let me into your book, let me into your book!"

Li Zhiyuan reached out and grabbed it.

But the human face flickered with a glow, freeing itself from Li Zhiyuan's control.

Yet at the next moment, a shadow of a large hand descended from above, though transparent and weak, it carried an aura of majesty, thoroughly clutching the human face.

The body: "Did you crush it?"

Li Zhiyuan: "Yes."

"Bang!"

The human face was crushed.

Just now, the body used one of the Fengdu Twelve Commandments, its prestige level was even higher than if Li Zhiyuan were to use it himself.

Li Zhiyuan: "You've learned well."

The body: "Using the Liu Family Qi Observation Technique to fake the Great Emperor's aura, then employing the Fengdu Twelve Commandments, brings a causal enhancement."

Li Zhiyuan: "So generous to tell me?"

The body: "I'm not ready to take over this body yet, and also, I don't want you to be so weak, bothering me in the future."

Li Zhiyuan: "Then how long do you need to be ready?"

The body: "You actually had a chance to completely infuse that Evil into the boy named Chen Jing's body, treating that boy as a sacrifice to seal it off."

Li Zhiyuan: "Yes, I know."

The body: "Were you merciful, unwilling to kill him?"

Li Zhiyuan shook his head: "When he was in the hospital, I intentionally didn't interact with him, just to avoid creating unnecessary bonds."

The body: "Since you had it predisposed, then why..."

Li Zhiyuan placed his hand in front of his chin, spreading his fingers, while a smile appeared on his face:

"I changed my mind, don't you see the effect now? Isn't it better? When I want to smile, it's much easier than before."

The body: "You did it on purpose to cure the illness."

Li Zhiyuan waved his hand: "Alright, let's not talk more, there's still stuff outside I need to deal with..."

"You forgot how exhausted we are." The body pointed around at the still broken environment of the Grandpa's house. "Even your deepest consciousness looks like this, when you wake up, will you still be conscious?"

Li Zhiyuan: "Yes, rather than waking up and immediately falling into a coma, I'd rather stay here, at least here I can chat with you."
