Tantai Lingyue was exactly as she had been when he first met her in his previous life. Her eyes held no trace of worldly warmth, calm and silent, as though everything around her had nothing to do with her. All her emotions were hidden in the deepest recesses of her heart, without the slightest ripple showing.
Though nothing could be seen, Nie Yun knew that the love she held for him deep within her heart had not changed in the slightest. The jade pendant on his chest slowly radiated scorching heat, revealing intense longing that had neither increased nor diminished.
Their eyes met.
A thousand words collided in that instant, only to vanish into nothing.
Tantai Lingyue turned her head away.
"Yue'er..."
The moment he saw her turn away, the faint indifference between her brows made Nie Yun's heart feel as if it were being twisted by knives.
Have you forgotten me?
"Everyone knows that the Asura King has returned to the world, and the calamity of the Spirit Realm has begun once more..."
In the air, Tantai Lingyue's father, Tantai Chuangyu, spoke in a clear, resounding voice.
His voice carried a pressure no one could resist, as though it represented order, rules, the Heavenly Dao itself—majestic and noble, impossible to defy.
Yet Nie Yun seemed to hear none of it. His eyes remained fixed on Tantai Lingyue in the air without blinking.
She had not changed at all, whether in appearance or temperament. But... why would she not look at him?
If she had truly forgotten him, why would Family Head Tantai go to such lengths to invite all the family heads here and arrange this so-called Demon Heaven Forgetful Love Great Array?
Nie Yun's entire body stiffened. It was as if he no longer cared about anything around
