Wang Xiao Yun, lost in thought, didn’t notice Lin Feng’s fluctuating expressions, her voice still clear, “It doesn’t matter what’s real or fake! Sigh, you really are quite dense. Simply put, I’m just a catalyst, that’s all. You should understand now, right? So, what you saw earlier, 99.999% of it was real. But you’ve already overcome your fear of heart demons; if you keep obsessing, you’ll fall into another demon’s trap. Remember, obsession is also a demon!”
Lin Feng’s body trembled violently, finally coming to a realization. Indeed, the old witch, no matter how hateful, had trapped him in this illusion of victory, and his reluctance to let go of the satisfaction of revenge was the beginning of another heart demon taking root! “I understand,” he nodded, his anger silently extinguished, and he smiled at the indestructible old witch, “Come back, my love!”
The scene before him shattered piece by piece, like old murals peeling away, and as the fragments multiplied, the surroundings gradually became blurred. In the next instant, the landscape returned to the original barren grassland.
However, in Wang Xiao Yun’s heart, there was another hidden concern. She claimed to be merely a catalyst for Lin Feng’s heart demons, but deep down, she was in turmoil. During the time Lin Feng was struggling with his heart demons, she had made a shocking discovery, one she dared not share with him. Lin Feng’s sudden descent into the heart demon’s realm was indeed related to her, but the illusion she seemed to have conjured was actually beyond her control.
In other words, there was another powerful entity in Lin Feng’s mental space, an unknown force that made her tremble with fear. During the time she was supposedly “gone,” she wasn’t actually gone; she was being controlled by this unknown powerful entity, completely immobilized in the shadows. She could feel this entity trying to manipulate her thoughts, forcing her to do things she didn’t want to do.
