Chapter 4852 Cai Lin, Don’t Leave Me

Xiao Yan held Cai Lin in his arms and felt the strong aura of death from her. Logically speaking, although Cai Lin's lifespan was not immortal, it was impossible for it to dissipate now.

"Husband...you are back."

Cai Lin’s old face shocked Xiao Yan. She stretched out her dry fingers and placed them on Xiao Yan’s face, tears streaming down her eyes.

Xiao Yan was slightly stunned. Cai Lin seldom called him husband because she had her own pride in her bones, but this had nothing to do with her relationship with Xiao Yan.

Qing Muer and Zhen Ni, who heard the noise, rushed in. Everyone saw this scene. Cai Lin looked as old as an ordinary person in his seventies or eighties. His skin was dry and had lost all its original luster. His beautiful face was completely ruined.

"You cut short your own lifespan?!"

Xiao Yan pressed on Cai Lin's body, wanting to infuse life into her immediately.

"Don't... Xiao Yan, please talk to me first."

Cai Lin's hoarse voice was heard and Qing Mu'er covered her mouth in horror. After all, they had lived together in the Ancient God Realm for thousands of years and had feelings for each other.

Zhen Ni felt the same way, but she was very rational and immediately dismissed everyone. Only Xiao Yan and the aging Cai Lin were left in the room.

"Cai Lin, tell me what happened?"

After Xiao Yan touched Cai Lin, he immediately checked her body and did not find any injuries. Cai Lin also did not take poison, so her lifespan should not have been cut short.

"Xiao Yan...how long have we been together? Do you still remember?"

Cai Lin smiled and did not answer Xiao Yan's question, but her eyes softened, as if only now that she was old had she lost her arrogance.

"How long have we been together?" Xiao Yan was a little confused by this question. It has been almost ten thousand years since the establishment of the Douqi Continent, but Xiao Yan understood that this was not what Cai Lin was asking.

"I'm sorry...Cai Lin..." Xiao Yan lowered his head, tears streaming down his cheeks.

In the ten thousand years, Xiao Yan could only squeeze out a few moments to accompany his wives. Whether it was Cai Lin or his other wives, they mostly spent these long years on their own.

"Xiao Yan, you have never done anything wrong to me. Don't say that. We both owe nothing."

Xiao Yan is free and unrestrained, while Cai Lin is cold, arrogant and aloof. They have completely different personalities, but they came together by chance and complement each other.

When they were in the Douqi Continent, Cai Lin never talked about love, including when she left the Douqi Continent. She never said anything about her feelings for Xiao Yan. Just like in the Douqi Continent, once Xiao Yan was in any danger, she would transform into the Sky-Swallowing Python to protect him.

During the battle between the two emperors, Cai Lin led the snake people in a bloody battle to save her husband, and even used her own blood essence to help Xiao Yan be reborn.

All this seemed to have happened just in the blink of an eye yesterday, and in the blink of an eye, time has passed in the blink of an eye, and nearly ten thousand years have passed.

It was in the Burning Heaven Refining Qi Tower that Cai Lin and Xiao Yan took a step forward. With Xiao Xiao, they became husband and wife.

"But Xiao Yan... I feel really lonely... I can't find my direction in this long life..."

Cai Lin shed tears in front of Xiao Yan for the first time. What a strong woman she was. She was once the Medusa Queen of the Snake People. As time went by, she became stronger. Her family was no longer there, and she was left alone.

"People need direction and purpose in life. Xiao Yan... I can't find it. Thank you for protecting me all the time."

"I want to reincarnate and start a new life."

Cai Lin expressed her thoughts, that the end of her life was because she had lost the faith to live, and this strong faith led her to old age.

"Cai Lin, I can't lose you."

Xiao Yan held Cai Lin tightly in his arms. At this moment, Cai Lin was soft and thin, and it seemed that she would break in his arms if he exerted a little force.

"Life must have an end. Xiao Yan, I actually... love you very much. I know that everything you have done now is to protect us. I understand, but... I am really lonely."

Cai Lin murmured, in the long years, the only real word is loneliness. Without pursuit and yearning, one will lose the meaning of living.

"In fact, I envy the life of mortals. I also understand why the rules of the world have fixed the life span of mortals within a hundred years. Only in this way can memories become meaningful. Life is not as blank as that of God."

Xiao Yan was silent, he understood Cai Lin's feelings, even he had come this far only by relying on her longing for him. This was also the difference between him and the Lord, he still had emotions and desires, but was not completely possessed by divinity.

"Cai Lin, can you walk with me for a while? I will help you find the meaning of life again!"

Xiao Yan didn't want to see Cai Lin die. He looked at Cai Lin tenderly, hoping that he still had a chance to get her back.

"Xiao Yan... I'm sorry..."

But Cai Lin's eyes were dim. She seemed to have been in this state for a long time and was on the verge of death. If she had not been waiting for this last meeting with Xiao Yan, Cai Lin would have died and reincarnated long ago.

"No, no, no, Cai Lin, you can't leave me. You still have Xiao Xiao and me. How can you bear to leave?"

"It's all my fault. I protected you too well. Give me a chance, I will teach you how to practice, and you will become a strong man of Shenxi. Will you fight side by side with me?"

Xiao Yan shook his head vigorously. All his memories at this moment came to his mind, because he saw a strong desire for death in Cai Lin. As long as the faith was severed, Cai Lin would really die at this moment.

"I can no longer break through. Cultivation has its limits. I understand this. Xiao Yan... I just want to call your name a few more times now."

The light in Cai Lin's eyes was gradually dimming, she was about to die.

She didn't die from it, but died voluntarily. She wanted to enter reincarnation and start a new life.

With Xiao Yan's current abilities, he could actually change Cai Lin's fate, and even make her stronger and stronger. The reason why Xiao Yan didn't do so was that he actually wanted to protect her better.

Because he was not even in Shenxi for a lot of time, he could not tolerate any accidents and was even more afraid that his wives would suddenly pass away in this chaotic world.

But Xiao Yan found that he was wrong. His protection was good, but he forgot the changes in his state of mind brought about by a long period of time.

Cai Lin is facing such a change, and this is also the end of her life.

"Cai Lin, don't leave me!"

"Your Nine-Colored Sky-reaching Python Body can still be improved. Shenxi is about to face a great catastrophe. Fight alongside me, I beg you..."

Xiao Yan's voice was tearful because he was really scared. He was afraid that Cai Lin would close her eyes and leave him forever.

"But... I can't feel your need. I feel... I have nothing to do with this world anymore."

Cai Lin's tears could not stop, and both of them burst into tears like springs, and they both opened their hearts to each other at this moment.
