Chapter 879 Villainous Immortal Lord's Son-in-Law X Untransformable Demon Fox (The End)
After getting married and achieving harmony in their lives, Xie Linyuan became visibly more peaceful.
However, his health did not improve, and he still looked somewhat sickly.
His parents treated him very well and truly regarded him as their son-in-law, but they couldn't help but look worried when they talked about him occasionally.
If Zhenzhen were still a little fox unable to transform into human form, her lifespan would likely be similar to Xie Linyuan's current lifespan.
But now that he can truly transform, Xie Linyuan is seriously injured. His overly domineering cultivation technique has prematurely depleted his physical functions, making his lifespan uncertain.
Their marriage was both a source of joy and sorrow for their parents.
That day, when Yu Zhen sought help from Meirenniang, Chu Xinlan asked her about it.
"You should also know that Xie Linyuan probably won't be able to accompany you for many years. He will eventually pass away before you. Even so, you won't regret it?"
"Life is about enjoying it while you can. If I give it up now, I'll definitely regret it later."
Chu Xinlan watched her beloved daughter marry Xie Linyuan.
At night, she leaned against Yu Chaojun's chest, her eyes reddening.
Yu Chaojun gently stroked the top of her head: "This is Zhenzhen's own choice, and we should trust her."
"Life is not perfect, and it has its own path."
*****
For the next few years, Xie Linyuan lived a peaceful and happy life.
He loved sitting under the peach tree in the courtyard, cooking some of the human delicacies that the fluffy little fox beside him loved to eat.
Together with Yu Zhen, they explored the dreamlike and beautiful scenery of the cultivation world.
He was no longer the same as when she first saw him.
Back then, he was covered in sharp, wary thorns, but now, he seems more like the proud and unyielding Qinglin Jun before he suffered any hardship.
The world's troubles are irrelevant to him.
He only wanted to stay with that little fox.
Two hundred years later, he was still handsome, but his black hair had turned white, and his face inevitably showed signs of illness and fatigue.
That day, the sun was warm and the breeze was gentle.
Xie Linyuan sat back in a recliner in the courtyard, with peach blossoms in full bloom overhead.
His white hair fell from his shoulders to the ground like a silver stream.
The top was decorated with many light pink petals, which made him look much healthier.
Yu Zhen knew that his life was coming to an end, so she could only squat down beside him, her eyes red as she held his hand.
She smiled and said, "Xie Linyuan... have you been happy these past two hundred years?"
"...How could I not be happy?" He reached out and wiped away a tear from her cheek.
"Zhenzhen, I have never been so happy."
"My only regret is that I can't spend more years with you."
He wasn't usually one to show his emotions, but at that moment, his eyes reddened slightly.
His gaze fell gently on Yu Zhen's face, then he looked up at the riotous flowers hanging overhead and said softly, "...This is enough."
He thought that back then, all he had in his mind was hatred. If he hadn't met that willful little fox, he probably would have lost himself in hatred long ago.
He will die after taking his revenge, suffering in agony.
He was someone who...didn't want to live.
"Xie Linyuan..."
Her voice is still so beautiful.
Xie Linyuan's vision had become blurry, but he still tried hard to see her clearly.
"...I am very happy too."
She chuckled softly and bent down to embrace him.
"I will find you, don't be afraid."
"You need to wait for me where you are..."
He closed his eyes and whispered, "...Okay."
As consciousness completely dissipated.
He only wishes...
I only wish her a carefree life.
Forget him, this passerby who was no more than a hundred years in the long span of her life.
Continue to be a happy and willful little fox.
