Chapter 236: The Undying Nether Emperor (17)
By the time Su Chen returned to the demon nation, everything had changed.
From Jin Da, he learned that many demons had died after his disappearance. Yuan Yuan had stopped at the Saint King realm. When her lifespan neared its end, she had chosen to seal herself in the divine source, waiting for the day Su Chen might return. He had indeed come back.
Yuan Yuan lay within the divine source. When Su Chen awakened her, the first thing she saw was the familiar figure she had not seen for countless years.
"Big Brother, is it really you?"
Su Chen still looked like a young man, peerlessly elegant. The little fox, however, had grown up. The former loli had become a graceful older sister. After years of ruling the demon nation with dignity and comfort, she carried a faint imperial aura. Yet in front of Su Chen, she remained the same little girl at heart.
Su Chen looked at the big fox, who was trying hard to act obedient with wide eyes, and said gently, "You've worked hard all these years, little one."
Yuan Yuan smiled.
"Yuan Yuan isn't tired. But… Yuan Yuan can no longer follow Brother anymore."
Her lifespan had reached its limit. Once she left the divine source, she would only have a few months left.
