I saw Gou Qi grabbing his ears, and his head was about to smoke: "Under this situation, it will be more difficult for me to get another piece of Emperor's meat back than it is for me to continue the family line, right?"

But Yutan took a deep breath and said bluntly: "I have a suggestion, I don't know...if you can accept it."

Ren Jie was startled and asked Yu Tan to continue.

Just listen to her say: "You should know that the life span of the epiphyllum spirit is extremely short. After blooming, it will wither very quickly..."

"And it's been a while since I last ate Emperor Sui meat, and Huaguduo has gradually matured..."

"If you calculate it, it is estimated that in another half month, it will be the time for me to bloom."

Bai Shengxue's eyes flashed with sadness, and she silently held Yu Tan's hand tightly.

Just...only half a month left?

Ren Jie frowned: "Do you want to..."

Yu Tan nodded: "Yes... It is up to Di Sui to choose whether he wants me alive or dead!"

"Once the flowers bloom, I will use up all I have. If I don't eat Emperor Sui meat to survive, I will die quickly..."

"If Di Sui doesn't want to lose me forever, then he has to send meat to me to eat to prolong my life. At that time, the meat will belong to you. Just let me go..."

"But if Di Sui doesn't want to keep me, I won't be of much value to you, so I'll give you that moment of youth as a thank you for giving me the gift of liberation."

"What do you think?"

Ren Jie squinted his eyes and thought, indeed, if Yutan is the only chip, this is the only way.

But... this method is not safe, because with the emergence of the fourth demon inscription, Emperor Sui has new choices and sustenance.

However... this does not prevent him from keeping Yu Tan. He only needs to pay a piece of meat to leave a way out and a chance to break through. As for how to get her back, he will slowly figure it out in the future.

It's better to keep it than to leave it. It's not a loss no matter how you look at it. With Di Sui's stubborn character, he would do risk hedging as insurance for not getting the Demon Imprint.

However... this method mainly depends on how deep Di Sui's feelings for Yutan are...

Ren Jie grinned: "Then... let's make an agreement!"

"No matter what I choose in the end, whether I succeed or not, I will give you liberation when your flowers bloom."

"I just want to see how beautiful the legendary moment of youth is."

"But during this period, you must fully cooperate with our actions. No matter whether we succeed or fail, we will not blame you!"

Yu Tan nodded and extended his little finger towards Ren Jie.

“It’s a deal!”

The little fingers of the two hooked together like this, and the agreement... was made!

…

In Senluo Tree City, the tallest giant tree in the center of the city, on the balcony of the treehouse at the crown of the tree, Ren Jie lay on the railing and looked towards the direction of the endless sea.

He still couldn't see any scenery a thousand meters away, all he could see was a blue sky.

Gu Nainai turned into a mushroom hat, looked into the sky, and transmitted what she saw to Ren Jie's mind.

I saw the setting sun gradually sinking into the sea, the last ray of light gradually dissipating, and the world was being swallowed up by darkness little by little.

The rustling of leaves could be heard in my ears. It was almost autumn, and even the chirping of cicadas was much weaker...

At this moment, nearly 12 hours have passed since the giant pillar of demonic energy appeared, and the battle on the endless sea is not over yet.

Although it has fallen into the night, the firelight bursting out from the endless sea turned the sky red...

The moonlight became more solid, splashing like the Milky Way, and even reflected the sea water like bright yellow jade.

The battle became more intense, and even though they were thousands of miles away, Ren Jie could still hear the thunderous sound.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk~ I've been fighting for so long, why haven't you found out yet?"

It seems...the situation with the fourth demon inscription is far more complicated than I imagined?

Otherwise, this simple fight should have come to an end after so long...

Ren Jie took out a green leaf from his arms, folded it into the shape of a paper crane, and threw it away gently.

The paper crane flapped its wings and flew towards the endless sea.

This... is exactly Yutan's handwriting. In the end... these thousand paper cranes will fall into Di Sui's hands.

He has half a month to make a decision, and it's up to him what he chooses...

But...Ren Jie doesn't plan to put all his treasure on this, he still needs an insurance plan.

Looking in the direction of the endless sea, Ren Jie suppressed his desire...

At this moment, clouds gathered behind Ren Jie, and Bai Shengxue's figure emerged silently, standing beside Ren Jie, also looking towards the direction of the endless sea.

"What are you looking at?"

Ren Jie stared intently and said hoarsely: "I'm looking at... the possibilities in the future..."

Bai Shengxue looked at Ren Jie in confusion, and then said:

"Where is my wife? Is she okay?"

"She is in a safe place, don't worry. When the flowers bloom for a moment, I will let you witness it. Since I agreed, I will not regret it..."

Yutan was placed in the world of paintings by Ren Jie, and she had no peace of mind in her pocket.

Bai Shengxue opened her mouth, wanting to say thank you, but she couldn't say it. She didn't seem to have anything to thank him for.

It has always been her wish to help the teacher's wife fulfill her wish, but she has never had the courage to take this step.

But what I never expected was that this choice was made for me by Nima. Now it seems... the current result is good or bad for Bai Shengxue...

Even if he is not dead, his wife can be freed, but there is a high probability that he will not be able to return to the emperor's spirit in this life.

But Bai Shengxue is not nostalgic... The sky is vast and the white clouds can call home anywhere.

I saw Bai Shengxue looking at Ren Jie seriously:

"Who the hell are you?"

Ren Jie looked at Bai Shengxue with a smile: "I told you, it's Nima? After one day, you should have figured out my details clearly..."

Bai Shengxue rolled her eyes angrily:

"The hidden genius of Huiling's lineage? The trump card? Do you think I will believe it?"

"Looking at all the fifth-level people in the world, who has the courage, means, and strategies like you?"

"I won't believe the words and punctuation marks that come out of your mouth!"

Ren Jie grinned: "Thank you for the compliment. Whose beauty is this? She is so beautiful!"

Two red clouds flew up from Bai Shengxue's face, and she glared at Ren Jie angrily: "Just...even if what you said is true..."

"By the way...what do you want Emperor Sui meat for? The big mushroom lady has obviously been cured..."

Ren Jie's eyes were misty and he looked up at the night sky: "Same as you..."

"It's just... you want the people you care about to leave, and I... want the people I care about to stay..."

"Actually, I quite admire you. In order to make Master's Wife get her wish, even though she knew that she would die afterwards, she still took that step resolutely without any hesitation."

"I...can't do it..."

"I have too many things to consider. Invisibly, it's like there are threads wrapped around me, binding my hands and feet, so that I can only do things within the rules and regulations I have set..."
