Nangong Rou’s lips trembled, and she slowly turned her stiff body around.

“Brother, you will be fine…”

Nangong Rou’s voice was hoarse as she gasped for air.

She did not cry and make a scene as usual, but continued to walk in the snow with Jiang Zhige on her back.

……..

“The Demon Emperor… died?”

“It’s impossible. There must be other changes, otherwise, how could we see this scene?”

“Fairy Nangong seems to have grown a lot. Witnessing her brother’s death, she did not give up on survival, but continued to move forward while carrying the Demon Emperor.”

The people in the palace were discussing one after another. Even though they were separated by a layer of light and shadow, they could sense that Nangong Rou, who was only seven years old at the time, had grown a lot at this moment.

In the past, even if she heard that her brother had died, she would just cry and sit on the ground.

At this time, a man dressed in black armor shook his head and sighed, “The Fairy Nangong of the past may not have grown because of this, but…just didn’t want to accept reality.”

Not far away, Nangong Rou’s eyes gradually turned red as she stared at the image in the light and shadow.

No one knew what she was thinking at this time.

Qu Yun’s face looked ugly. He wanted to interrupt Nangong Rou’s sadness several times, but didn’t know what to say.

He thought about it and decided it was best not to speak. After all, if he spoke at the wrong time, he might provoke Nangong Rou’s resentment.

……..

In the vast snow, a small figure was extremely conspicuous.

She was carrying a corpse, her eyes empty, but still moving forward against the wind and snow.

There were unexpected events in the sky. Soon, the sky began to snow again, and the cold wind seemed to tear people apart.

Bursts of cold air swept over, and Nangong Rou fell to the ground.

She trembled as she got up, and once again carried Jiang Zhige on her back, braving the stormy snow.

“Brother, it’s okay. Rou’er will take you to find a doctor…”

Nangong Rou’s cheeks were covered in tears, and a few drops of tears froze into ice crystals hanging from the corners of her eyes.

Without a single complaint, Nangong Rou carried Jiang Zhige and pressed forward in the blizzard.

But the blizzard was so fierce that every step Nangong Rou took exhausted all her strength, and she couldn’t stand steady in the snowstorm.

Her little face was covered in frost, and her hands and feet were frozen to a bluish-purple color. She felt like she might die at any moment.

Not long after they had gone, Nangong Rou couldn’t hold on any longer and fell to the ground with Jiang Zhige.

She knew she couldn’t bring Jiang Zhige across the snowfield, so she crawled towards him with great difficulty and hugged him with her body to shield him from the wind and snow.

“Brother…brother, can you still hear Rou’er talking?”

“Rou’er is not a coward, Rou…Rou’er didn’t cry…”

Nangong Rou’s expression was dazed, and her voice became smaller and smaller.

In the end, she gradually lost consciousness and fell on Jiang Zhige’s body.

The blizzard did not show any mercy and continued to pour down soft snow.

When the blizzard subsided, there was only a high pile of snow in the snowfield.

At first glance, it looked like a small grave.

……

In various places in the Heavenly Realm, men bowed their heads in silence, while women choked and sobbed.

This scene shocked countless people. It was hard to imagine that this was the childhood of Demon Emperor Jiang Zhige and Fairy Nangong Rou.

Their love as siblings had already surpassed blood ties.

He could die for her, and she would die for him. Love and hate in the eyes of the world were already blasphemy in comparison.

“I heard rumors that later, the Demon Emperor betrayed Fairy Nangong Rou for a treasure. I believed it at the time, but now that I know their past, I realize how absurd that statement is.”

“You’re right. Their love is so deep that even their lives are insignificant. How could they turn against each other for a treasure?”

…………..

Inside the Zhengyang Palace, people no longer dared to speak ill of the two of them.

Originally, they thought that it was only the Demon Emperor who was guarding Nangong Rou, but they never expected that Nangong Rou would also risk her life to protect her brother from the wind and snow.

Witnessing this scene, even the powerful warriors who had experienced countless life and death situations couldn’t help but be moved to tears.

Looking back, the feelings between Jiang Zhige and Nangong Rou were something that outsiders like them had no right to judge.

Who was right or wrong, only they could decide.

Seeing the miserable situation of the two of them back then, Nangong Rou couldn’t hold back anymore.

She turned around, tears streaming down her beautiful eyes, biting her lips tightly to prevent herself from crying out loud.

“Jiang Zhige, you bastard…”

A crack suddenly appeared in Nangong Rou’s heart.

She began to doubt the truth of what happened back then, and wondered if her decision to attack Jiang Zhige were right.

If the most vivid memory of Jiang Zhige was the scene before him, how could he betray Nangong Rou for a treasure? And why would he harm Nangong Rou and her father?

Qu Yun beside her clenched his teeth, his face dark and frightening.

He now understood that even though Nangong Rou hated Jiang Zhige, she did have genuine feelings for him back then.

Her current hatred was only because she cared too much about Jiang Zhige’s betrayal, causing her to love and hate.

Even now, Nangong Rou still had lingering feelings for Jiang Zhige.

If the two of them reconciled, it would undoubtedly be a love that would make everyone envious.

“No, Jiang Zhige will definitely die, why should I worry?”

Qu Yun sneered. Jiang Zhige was trapped by the Heaven-Binding Chains and even if he reconciled with Nangong Rou, even if it was just a misunderstanding, Jiang Zhige could not escape death.

Then there would be no competitors, and he would have plenty of time to make Nangong Rou fall in love with him.

In fact, Jiang Zhige had no intention of competing with Qu Yun for Nangong Rou. He was only thinking about how to survive.

As for the three female leads, the so-called femme fatales, Jiang Zhige didn’t want to get too involved with them. Besides, the Demon Emperor was the villain, not Jiang Zhige. He had no genuine

feelings for the three female leads, and he fabricated those memories purely to stay alive.

As long as he could stay alive, why should he use those fabricated memories to harm others?

The best way was to fake his death and escape from the Xuancang Holy Land. Then he could travel the world with his cultivation level and find a woman who truly loved him.

……

In the light and shadow, the snow and wind subsided, and a figure gradually approached from a distance.

The person who came was the old man in white. He waved his hand to blow away the snow, revealing two small figures inside.

Seeing the frozen Jiang Zhige and Nangong Rou, who fought to protect her brother, the old man in white suddenly felt a tingling in his nose and tears almost flowed out.

He hugged the two children and said in a trembling voice, “I’m sorry…”

The old man in white knew that he was wrong, not for testing Jiang Zhige in this way, but for underestimating the siblings’ feelings.
