Chapter 1761 Tan Songyun's Decision

Tan Songyun recalled every moment of the year she had spent with Tian Kai—the emotions that had consumed her, the warmth of his presence, and the touch of his fingers on her body.

Then, she remembered the countless rumors she had heard about Tian Kai over tens of thousands of years, along with the hatred and anger that had festered within her. While the year she had spent with Tian Kai had been filled with joy, she couldn't simply cast aside the anguish and betrayal that had consumed her for thousands of years, as if it had never existed.

Even if the rumors were untrue and Tian Kai was innocent, the anguish Tan Songyun had endured was undeniably real and couldn't simply be dismissed.

'Tian Kai was innocent…? Then what have I been doing all these years? What am I doing with my life now?'

After a very long moment of silence, Tan Songyun suddenly smacked herself in the face and shook it off. _{freewebnovel.cσ๓}

"Even after tens of thousands of years of feeling betrayed, it is undeniable that I still love Tian Kai to a certain extent, and if it turns out that all of the rumors I've heard about him are false, I will atone for my crimes."

"However, there's no way for me to confirm your words as of this moment, and I am no longer foolish enough to believe everything I hear. Therefore, I am going to follow and watch you to confirm it."

"You're going to follow me?" Yuan's eyes widened at her words.

"What's with that look? You don't want me to? Are you afraid I might expose the real you?" Tan Songyun frowned.

"No… that's not it. Didn't you hear me? I am currently being hunted by the Celestial Emperor. I also have many enemies. If you stay with me, I cannot guarantee your safety."

"So what? Even if I die in the process, I will not have any regrets—except that I won't be able to find out the truth."

Yuan rubbed his eyes and sighed, "I will also be traversing dangerous places."

"This won't be my first time visiting someplace dangerous."

Seeing how stubborn Tan Songyun was acting, Yuan said, "Fine, you can follow me, but the moment I deem you as a burden, I'll immediately leave you behind."

"Like you did back then?" Tan Songyun sneered.

"..."

"Even if you follow me, how will you determine what I said is true or false?" Yuan then asked.

"That's not something you need to know," she said.

Yuan removed the formation shortly after and called Xi Meili back.

"Well, since you're going to be following us, we might as well do an introduction," said Yuan.

"You may know me as Tian Kai, but my name now is Yuan. Are you aware of the existence of players?"

"Players… you mean the Outsiders?"

Yuan nodded and said, "I am one of them, as I was reborn in that world."

"You claim to have reincarnated, but why would you still retain Tian Kai's memories? As far as I know, those who reincarnate lose all memories of their past lives," Tan Songyun asked, her tone filled with doubt.

"My case is a little special. Also, not everyone forgets their memories. There are special techniques out there that help people regain their lost memories," Yuan explained.

Xi Meili introduced herself next, "My name is Xi Meili, and I am a real dragon. My bloodline is also royalty."

Tan Songyun's eyes widened, and she asked, "How are you related to the Xi Family in the upper heavens?"
