Qin Yi's phoenix eyes turned cold without any of the blazing intent from earlier. She had reverted back to how she was when she was rebirthed, cold and emotionless. However, she had matured, and the evil aura and blood stench had completely withdrawn into her bones.

“That's right, it's rather miserable, but you're even more miserable, aren't you? You love him, right?” Qin Yi could see the pain and loneliness in Feng Qingge's eyes when she mentioned her brother. This was not merely a sibling love situation.

Feng Qingge's smile froze before she quickly retracted it.

“You saw through it. That's right, I fell in love with him. He is not my real brother, as I was adopted by his parents. I fell for him, but he struck me fatally just for that fake without any hesitation.”

Although the youth before her, no, the lady before her, was smiling, her words were extremely sorrowful. The body, which was covered with loneliness and pain, could not be hidden by the small smile on her face.

Qin Yi suddenly recalled the moment when Yun Huan stabbed her, her hand subconsciously touching her stomach. She remembered the pain that had spread not only in her body, but even more so in her heart.

Now, she was unable to feel anything.

Upon thinking about Yun Huan, a wave rippled through her heart as the person that was not in her life appeared.

A sense of loss was present in Qin Yi's phoenix eyes. Why was she feeling like that, as though she had lost some sense of emotion?

Feng Qingge shook her head and threw her jumbled thoughts to the back of her mind. She thought about her conversation with Qin Yi, and upon seeing Qin Yi's disturbed appearance, she gave a mysterious chuckle. “Eh, little Yiyi, who are you thinking about just now? Are you thinking about your other half? Come, tell me about it, who is your other half?”

Qin Yi retracted her dazed look and looked at Feng Qingge indifferently with a cold look in her eye, firmly stating, “You're overthinking it.”

Feng Qingge spat out the tree root in her mouth and rolled her eyes. “Little Yiyi, why keep it sealed so tightly? You're even lying to me. You were clearly thinking about him, with that preoccupied look in your eyes.”

Qin Yi squinted her phoenix eyes. Had she fallen in love with Yun Huan? She did not know, since all her emotions had disappeared and she wasn't able to make sense of them.

But even if she did love him, the blade had cut off everything between them.

Qin Yi's hand subconsciously reached out to her stomach once again.

Feng Qingge laid down on the gra.s.s and looked up at her, asking, “Eh, how long do you think we have to stay here? This isn't being alive or dead, so I don't even know if I'm a human or a ghost right now. I really want to get out. Little Yiyi ah, if we can go out, I really want to see this apocalypse of yours. Who would have thought that not long after I “died,” the world's end would approach? I really want to see real zombies, the ones from the movies.”

Qin Yi looked at her gently as she commented, “Isn't it the same? I'm really curious about your Star Continent as well.”

She wanted to take a look at the Xuanhuan world that she had only read about in novels. Upon thinking about it, it seemed that she had already encountered all the genres present in novels.

Apocalypse, Xuanhuan, Rebirth, Transmigration, cross-dressing, and even being killed by her loved one, although they didn't seem to be dead yet.

'Is it really so dramatic?' she wondered, wanting to laugh upon thinking about it.

“Hey, hey, do the two dolls there want to go out?”

While Qin Yi and Feng Qingge were thinking about how to leave, an old and slightly cunning voice called out to them.
