What's going on?
Zi Linling was very confused.
She couldn't understand why the man who had been attacking her without mercy just now had suddenly let her go.
Gui Men Guan urged, "Master, stop thinking and hurry up and leave!"
Zi Linling nodded and turned to fly back the way she came.
She crossed the Yellow Springs, passed through the sea of ββred spider lilies, and returned to the Divine Relic Continent.
Previously, Zi Linling's physical body had suddenly emitted light, which had almost frightened Ye Zhan and Feng Ning.
The two were very worried, fearing that Zi Linling was in danger.
Just as they were impatient, Gui Men Guan and Liu Dao Lun Hui suddenly separated and drilled into Zi Linling's body.
After that, Zi Linling opened her eyes and stood up.
Ye Zhan and Feng Ning were overjoyed and rushed forward, asking eagerly, "Miss Zi, how are you?"
Zi Linling nodded and said, "You two step aside first. I need to make her soul merge into one."
Ye Zhan and Feng Ning did not dare to disobey and, filled with excitement, retreated to the side.
Zi Linling had the Four Symbols Divine Beasts withdraw the Sky Locking Array and released the wisp of soul that belonged to Jing Yulan.
Then, she had Gui Men Guan release the part of the soul that had been snatched from the City of Wrongful Deaths.
The two parts of the soul, which were originally one, naturally attracted each other and quickly merged into one.
Immediately, Jing Yulan's soul was covered by a layer of white light, and past memories flashed by like a movie, scene after scene.
The confused eyes of Jing Yulan gradually gained brilliance.
As the white light dissipated, Jing Yulan's memories were completely restored.
She looked at Ye Zhan and then at Feng Ning, a trace of struggle appearing on her face, and her soul body trembled violently.
"Yulan!"
"Lanlan!"
Ye Zhan and Feng Ning called out cautiously.
Jing Yulan's face was filled with sorrow, and her soul body exuded an aura of sadness.
She wanted to cry but couldn't shed tears, as souls do not cry.
"Ye Zhan, Brother Feng, I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry..."
Jing Yulan's tangled feelings for Ye Zhan and Feng Ning ultimately turned into these three words.
Her heart was filled with inner conflict.
These two men were both her saviors and the ones she deeply loved. How could she choose?
Amnesia?
Amnesia!
Amnesia?!
It was as if heaven had played a huge joke on the three of them.
Jing Yulan was in extreme pain.
Zi Linling sighed and said somewhat awkwardly, "Patriarch Ye, Brother Feng, please wait outside the cave for a moment. Let me refine a physical body for your wife."
Although Ye Zhan and Feng Ning had countless words to say, they both deeply loved Jing Yulan.
Therefore, even though they both longed to pour out their hearts to Jing Yulan, they thanked Zi Linling upon hearing her words and retreated.
After the two of them left, Zi Linling set up a barrier inside the cave and said, "Madam, I am going to refine a physical body for you now, but..."
As soon as she said this, she was interrupted by Jing Yulan, "Thank you, Miss, but it's not necessary."
Zi Linling asked in confusion, "Why?"
Jing Yulan gave a bitter smile, "Fate plays tricks on people. The moment I lost my memory and married Brother Feng, it was destined that I could not face Ye Zhan. So, if I had a physical body, how would I choose? It's better to..."
Zi Linling was stunned and said, "However, I need your tears, and you can only cry if you have a physical body."
"My tears? Why?" Jing Yulan asked doubtfully.
Zi Linling pointed to Ye Lingyuan lying on the stone bed and said, "Because I need to save him."
Upon hearing this, Jing Yulan looked towards the stone bed.
The moment she saw Ye Lingyuan, her heart clenched, and she almost suffocated from the pain.
She tremblingly reached out her hand, wanting to touch Ye Lingyuan's face, but her hand grasped at empty air.
"Miss, who is he? Why do I feel a sense of blood connection?"
Zi Linling sighed and said, "Do you remember your son?"
"Son!"
Jing Yulan was struck by lightning and remembered the scene of being chased and the moment her son was taken away by the seal.
Her voice trembled as she asked, "Are you saying that he... is my... poor child?"
Zi Linling nodded, "Other than that, how else can we explain the blood connection?"
"Child! Child..."
Jing Yulan burst into tears and threw herself onto Ye Lingyuan.
Even though she couldn't touch him, it didn't diminish her sincere emotions.
Zi Linling was deeply moved, and her love for Ye Lingyuan was also profoundly touched.
With a flash of her figure, she was already by the stone bed and said, "Madam, his name is Ye Lingyuan. He is your son, and also my husband."
As Zi Linling spoke, a tear slid from the corner of her eye and landed with a plop on Ye Lingyuan's face.
At the same time, a tear appeared at the corner of Jing Yulan's soul body.
"Soul tear!" Gui Men Guan exclaimed, "Master, look, a soul tear!"
Upon hearing this, Zi Linling looked at Jing Yulan, a hint of shock in her eyes.
Souls do not shed tears; this was a well-known fact.
But today, Jing Yulan, who was a soul, had shed tears, which showed the depth of her affection!
The tears at the corner of Jing Yulan's eyes coalesced into a huge pearl, which swayed and fell onto Ye Lingyuan's face, merging with Zi Linling's tear.
Zi Linling's eyes lit up, and she took out several porcelain bottles from the Goddess Palace.
These porcelain bottles did not contain elixirs but the tears of friendship from Xuanyuan Xun, Shen Liuxing, Shangguan Yulin, and Rong Guang.
These tears of friendship were deep tears shed by the four of them for Ye Lingyuan, kept secret from each other.
Of course, the four of them had collected them themselves and entrusted them to Zi Linling for safekeeping.
Zi Linling took out the porcelain bottles and poured out the tears within, but she hesitated to let them fall onto Ye Lingyuan's face.
This was because her grandmother Yue Hua had once told her that to wake Ye Lingyuan, one must find a tear of familial love, a tear of romantic love, and a tear of friendship.
But now, there were three extra tears of friendship. Would this harm Ye Lingyuan?
Just as Zi Linling was hesitating, the four tears of friendship automatically chased each other and merged into one.
The merged tear rapidly spun, shrinking at a visible speed, and then it proactively merged with the tears of Zi Linling and Jing Yulan, falling onto Ye Lingyuan's face.
As the three tears merged into one, the Heart Flower flew out of the nascent world, and the Other Shore Tear flew out of Zi Linling's eyes.
At the same time, Zi Linling's heart pounded violently, and the half of Ye Lingyuan's heart that had merged into Zi Linling's body directly leaped out of her chest.
The Heart Flower, the Other Shore Tear, and the half heart all plunged into Ye Lingyuan's heart area, and the three tears also seeped into Ye Lingyuan's brow.
Immediately, a soft radiance appeared outside Ye Lingyuan's body.
