Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me-Chapter 517 - 479: I Will Always Remember You_1

Lu Chuan grew anxious and looked at Yu Sisi, asking, "What do you mean? Why did you deceive me?"

Yu Sisi looked at Lu Chuan and said, "For more than a thousand years, the Freezing Ice Stone has indeed brought me endless pain, but what I did not tell you is that the Freezing Ice Stone has also been the source of my existence for over a thousand years. It, along with the Evil-Suppressing Sword and my corpse, forms a whole; only by relying on the dripping water generated by the Freezing Ice Stone onto my corpse can my ghost linger on undyingly."

"This is the very Formation that Ao Wuchang set up specifically for me. Only if the Formation remains undying can I continue to exist. In order to control me, Ao Wuchang infused the Formation with numerous powers to torture and influence my mind, turning me into a ghost servant who would obey his commands. Later, affected by the blood of the Demon Lord, Ao Wuchang lost control of the Formation and couldn’t even approach the Formation’s area, but the nature of the Formation still persisted."

"I have suffered torture from this Formation for a thousand years, and now, at last, I can be liberated."

Lu Chuan said urgently, "Even so, there’s no need for you to do this. I’m certain I can find a way for you to exist without the pain!"

Yu Sisi smiled and said, "It’s useless. I have already merged with this Formation. As long as the Formation exists, so do I, and so does the pain. Only with the disappearance of the Formation can the pain vanish."

Lu Chuan’s brow furrowed as he said, "Then I can try to find ways to alleviate your pain!"

Yu Sisi revealed a bitter smile, then raised her hand and lightly tapped Lu Chuan’s forehead.

In an instant, Lu Chuan felt his mind filled with all kinds of noisy voices, almost bursting his skull, and among them, various evil thoughts relentlessly washed over his rationality, nearly causing him to have a mental breakdown and fall into the Evil Path.

Fortunately, this agony only lasted for a moment before it disappeared. Otherwise, he truly wasn’t sure whether he could have endured it any longer.

Soaked in cold sweat and breathing heavily, he looked at Yu Sisi and asked, "What was that..."

Yu Sisi said, "This is the pain I have suffered. I just transferred this feeling to you."

Lu Chuan’s expression stiffened, and his look at Yu Sisi became much more complex.

Just now, it was only a moment, yet he almost felt an unbearable level of pain, while Yu Sisi had endured it for a full thousand years!

He truly couldn’t comprehend what kind of willpower it took for someone to endure to such an extent.

Under such agonizing pain, whether it was a human or a ghost, it was very easy to be overcome by those malicious thoughts and completely fall from grace.

But Yu Sisi managed to remain lucid through a thousand years, an astonishing feat of willpower that not even a Cultivator would easily achieve. No wonder the blood left by the Demon Lord had chosen her.

Seeing Lu Chuan’s astonished face, Yu Sisi once again reached out and caressed his cheek, saying, "Do you remember when you said I would rather become a vengeful ghost than be reincarnated, just so I could seek revenge on Zhong Shuci’s reincarnation? And I admitted it? In fact, that was another lie I told you."

"Hatred can indeed create obsession, but even the deepest of hatred fades with time, and after waiting for an entire thousand years, my hatred towards Zhong Shuci has long since diminished to insignificance."

"The real reason why I found Ao Wuchang, even if it meant becoming a vengeful ghost, was to retain my memories and exist forever, was actually to see you again! While speaking, she began to cry, and her hand shaking as she touched Lu Chuan’s was clearly seen, along with her body gradually turning into points of light and beginning to dissipate."

"From the beginning, I had no intention of seeking revenge on Zhong Shuci. All I wanted was to see you again. My thoughts have not changed for a thousand years. I’ve been able to keep my sanity amidst such pain because I held on to this belief; I didn’t want to become a monster like Ao Wuchang by the time I met you again."

Upon hearing this, Lu Chuan couldn’t help feeling a deep compassion for Yu Sisi. Although he had no memory of his previous life, it was clear that Yu Sisi’s sacrifices had already moved him.

He felt more and more that his past self was an utter beast, wondering how he could have had the heart to forsake such a wonderful woman.

"But haven’t you seen me now? Why would you want to end your life then? Haven’t you waited in vain for a thousand years?" Lu Chuan asked, puzzled.

Yu Sisi smiled and said, "Because I think you were right about one thing. Although you are the reincarnation of Lu Jingxing, you are not Lu Jingxing after all."

"The Lu Jingxing I deeply loved died a thousand years ago, and there are differences between you and him. Nonetheless, having seen you, I am already satisfied. Whether you remember me or not, my wish has been fulfilled, and you also gave me joyful experiences. My thousand-year wait was worth it."

As she spoke, her face once again showed pain, and the speed at which her body was dissipating increased significantly.

Lu Chuan, distressed by her appearance yet helpless, had already covertly observed that Yu Sisi and the Formation had indeed merged into one; with the Formation destroyed, even gods would struggle to bring Yu Sisi back.

"Lu Chuan, can you hold me one last time?" Yu Sisi pleaded as she looked at him.
