Chapter 76: Two Souls, One Body

"I don't think that's quite right," Dr. Fu pressed her lips together and shook her head. "If that were truly the case, then what happened to your other personality?"

Her question struck Li Wanbai right in the heart.

If it really was a split personality, and without any particular trigger or therapy, where had that other persona gone?

"Isn't it possible that the personality inside her accomplished its own purpose, so the resentment simply dissolved on its own?" Su Orange couldn't help asking.

Xuan Yuan Qiyue's eyes were bloodshot, glaring at me with such hatred as though she wanted to devour me alive.

As for the earth, countless volcanoes stood tall, and at the foot of the mountains, the ground cracked open into deep chasms filled with surging lava.

Then, Lin Ruoxuan slowly opened her eyes, seeing the questioning look on Ling Changfeng’s face.

I glanced back and, sure enough, not far from the Demon King's platform stood a towering mountain. I seemed to have hit it with a wind blast earlier—could this be the Demon Spirit Volcano?

I tilted my head toward the sky. If only she had confessed she was a demon a little sooner, perhaps… everything would have been different.

The blood-red evening glow slanted across a corner of the terrace, and the world refracted a dizzying, chaotic light.

The officers stared, dumbfounded. They could never have dreamed that the Holy Order of Knights still existed within this sacred city.

Jiu’er pressed her lips together, scanning her surroundings—an unconscious habit. Every time she arrived somewhere new, her first instinct was to figure out the layout of the buildings.

As if bewitched, I lifted my head slightly, my lips brushing his eyelids in a tender kiss, falling softly on his half-closed eyes.

But in the next instant, Shen straightened his back and stood up abruptly. Under the shocked gazes of Yang Chen and the old man, he poured himself another cup and, in one gulp, swallowed even the tea leaves.

Even in such a state, Gao Min couldn't muster any anger; all she could do was let her trembling body express her fury.

Following the directions to Third House on the right, Ye Zhen faced the dilapidated homes and the obviously curious faces. She kept her expression blank. To them, this must be the infamous slum of Bianjing, and she—clad in bright clothes and exuding an air of nobility—was utterly out of place.

"Heh, what nonsense is this? If I’d had a suitable vessel, the battle in the Imperial Palace that day would not have ended with only Di Shi falling," Xia Bing thought to herself.

Yet, when he actually spoke those words, she still felt a surge of loss, sadness, even anger. Such emotions instantly washed over everything, pushing aside the tenderness and happiness from before, and reviving her lingering reason.

"Yes. The burly one from West Street Bearing Factory told him to cripple the man, to cut his Achilles tendon. Let’s go—we can’t afford any more complications."

"Not necessarily. Who can say? She’s just a monster," Princess Xueran frowned, glancing at Ye Zhen with a slow, deliberate gaze.

Such weakness and incompetence—he despised himself for it. How could he possibly give her happiness?

"Qiyue—who is that?" He made an effort to soften his tone, trying to keep the surprise from his voice.

Yet the crowd’s envy of the man in purple lasted only a moment, for it was soon overtaken by an even more stunning event.

"So what exactly happened that day?" Xiahou Jinkang’s tone was low. He hadn’t been in Lingkong City at the time and knew nothing of the incident.

Meanwhile, Liang Yihong noticed another troubling detail—the arrow was poisoned. In mere moments, he felt a numbness spreading from the wound.

But the calm man in black was now absolutely confident he could dodge Lu Shuangyang’s flying knife. He also knew Lu Shuangyang knew this, so why did he still suggest such a wager? What trick was he plotting?
