On the day the auction started, the entire Boundless Realm was filled with people. All kinds of obscure great gods had gathered.
It seemed that some precious treasure was about to appear.
Qing Lin was calculating what she could get back. Just as she reached the door, all kinds of strange - looking and intimidating people bowed to her.
Qing Lin: "?"
The big shots in the auction house: "Welcome, Demon Lord."
Qing Lin: "???"
It turned out that the cold - faced great god was Feng Moli. Because he had suffered a deviation in his cultivation back then, he came to the Boundless Realm to recuperate.
Look, six hundred years was only enough for him to recuperate, while Qing Lin, at over six hundred years old, dared to go to the Boundless Realm alone and tried to find treasures.
It was already lucky that she wasn't exploited by all kinds of demons.
Then came the more cliché story of a girl chasing a boy. Qing Lin spent a great deal of effort and finally melted the millennium - old iceberg that was Feng Moli.
Although there were many twists and turns, the result was good.
Feng Moli didn't like to talk or listen to others, but he didn't find Qing Lin's chattering annoying. Instead, he liked it very much.
Qing Lin didn't like quietness and loved excitement, but since Feng Moli always preferred to be alone, Qing Lin didn't always seek excitement. She felt that it was better for just the two of them to be together.
After returning to the Divine Realm, Qing Lin went to discuss with her father about canceling that stupid baby - betrothal. However, the Lord of Qingqiu didn't keep his word.
He always listened to Qing Lin's mother.
This matter was at a stalemate, and there was no solution for a long time.
After all, Qing Lin couldn't threaten her mother with a sword, because it was very likely that her mother would shout, "If you have the guts, kill me."
She couldn't bear to do that.
But then, Qing Lin suddenly thought of another way. She couldn't threaten her mother's life... but she could threaten her own!
After thinking about it, Qing Lin thought this plan was excellent. So she took a sword and went to find her mother.
Just then, Feng Moli single - handedly attacked the Nine Heavens.
...
However, Qing Lin was engaged to Du Fengchi, that stupid baby - betrothal.
This time, Feng Moli was in the wrong.
Fortunately, Feng Moli was shameless. He regarded his face as something unimportant and never cared about it. The Heavenly Emperor's family had no way to deal with him.
Then, the whole family of Qingqiu was summoned to the Nine Heavens.
So, under unfriendly circumstances, the three parties decided that Qing Lin and Feng Moli would go to the mortal world to experience reincarnation.
The fate of their lives would not be written by the God of Fate. They would just pick a random playbook in the mortal world as their fate. If they could still fall in love, then the engagement would be canceled, and everyone would be happy.
But this playbook would be chosen by Du Fengchi himself.
So, Qing Lin was born in the 21st century, while Feng Moli was in a completely different mortal world.
Yun Jin was not a world in the book but another mortal world derived from the story written by Zou Lurui.
Qing Lin's fate had no fixed number and no ending, while Feng Moli's fate was based on what Zou Lurui had written.
But by accident, Du Yueyi... who was Du Fengchi's half - sister and Qing Lin's good friend, at the risk of being punished by the Heavenly Emperor and his family, transferred Qing Lin to the same mortal world as Feng Moli.
Recalling this, Qing Lin suddenly opened her eyes. "Where is Du Yueyi? Where is she now?"
The old man beside her, the one who had just wanted to hit her with "The Complete Collection of Heart - wrenching Reincarnation Stories" (Intermediate Edition)... was actually the King of Hell. When the King of Hell saw Qing Lin wake up, his face showed relief.
"Goddess, you're finally awake," the King of Hell quickly leaned over. "Goddess Yueyi is now being protected by God Qingyi. She's very safe. Don't worry."
Qing Lin: "???"
Qingyi?
It sounded even less reassuring...
"So... where is Feng Moli?"
The King of Hell looked innocent. "Oh, you mean the Demon Lord? He's already been reincarnated in the mortal world."
Qing Lin: "???"
Qing Lin: "!!!"
Qing Lin: "When did this happen? Why didn't I know? Wasn't he still alive when I died?"
"Wait, wait, Goddess. Slow down with your questions. This old man can't keep up," the King of Hell said. "The Demon Lord was indeed still in the mortal world when you came back, but after you left, he immediately committed suicide..."
Qing Lin still couldn't figure it out. "Then why did he go for reincarnation again? Didn't we already fulfill our promise?"
"Seems to be because..."
Because all the people of Qingqiu had been taken to the Nine Heavens. Because the Heavenly Emperor threatened the whole of Qingqiu. Because Feng Moli was afraid that Qing Lin would abandon him for the sake of Qingqiu.
So, he took out the Heart of All Demons to protect all the immortals of Qingqiu.
The Heart of All Demons represented the supreme power and authority of the Demon Race, and it was the most precious, beloved, and cherished thing.
The Heart of All Demons represented all the hardships, injuries, pains, and difficulties that an ordinary demon had endured to become the current Demon Lord.
The price of taking out the Heart of All Demons was to enter the cycle of reincarnation and re - cultivate to become a demon before it was possible to regain the Heart of All Demons.
Qing Lin's voice began to tremble. "King of Hell, please protect my parents... Forget it, protect yourself."
The King of Hell swallowed back the words "I may not be able to protect myself" and just nodded. "Don't worry, Goddess."
Qing Lin smiled. "By the way, please put me and Feng Moli in the same mortal world."
The King of Hell was stunned for a moment and then saw Qing Lin stand up without hesitation and walk towards the Naihe Bridge.
She also took the soup that Granny Meng hesitantly offered without hesitation and jumped into the Well of Reincarnation.
