Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again

Chapter 1817: Chapter 1815: Delicate Dice Hold Red Beans

The little girl’s laughter was beautiful, like the sound of silver bells.

Her smile was equally enchanting, as if a beautiful flower had blossomed before his eyes.

In that moment, all his anger and embarrassment vanished into thin air.

He also wanted to laugh along.

But he still retained some rationality, covering his mouth as he grinned.

Once he got his teeth fixed, the two of them became familiar with each other.

At that time, Sima Xiaowen, like him, had just been born, and hadn’t experienced Nirvana.

They had a great many topics to talk about.

He also became more amiable; although he was the Young Clan Leader, he became much more approachable with the clan members. Those days, young people like them were seen all around the Divine Land.

Nevertheless, they all adhered strictly to their duties, especially him. Although he harbored affection for Sima Xiaowen, he was aware that he had a fiancée, and could not harm Sima Xiaowen in the slightest, the same applied to Liu Ling.

Thus, he buried this admiration deep within his heart.

He kept reminding himself that Sima Xiaowen was someone he could not touch, nor hurt.

Luckily, young Sima Xiaowen was not particularly sensitive, sometimes even behaving like a boy. He knew that, most of the time, Sima Xiaowen considered him like a buddy, and while he felt grateful, he also experienced a pang of disappointment. But, so what if things weren’t this way?

This was already the best outcome.

However, the unexpected occurred during the first Nirvana.

Actually, his and Sima Xiaowen’s Nirvana took place less than a year apart, so during that period, both of them were quite nervous.

It was their first experience, and they lacked any knowledge.

Until one day, Sima Xiaowen lost the Red Coral Bead Hairpin while in the valley. It was a birthday gift given to her by her father, and Xiao Wen cherished it deeply, always wearing it on her head. On this occasion, unexpectedly losing it, Sima Xiaowen was extremely anxious and rushed into the valley alone. Naturally, he was concerned and followed her quickly.

Unexpectedly, an earthquake occurred, after a series of tremors, they found themselves isolated within a Barrier. This was likely a formation left by someone from the Mystic Sect, completely cutting them off from the outside world.

They worked hard to find an exit, but before they could, the two of them unexpectedly entered Nirvana prematurely.

Luckily, they had some preparations beforehand.

He was worried that Xiao Wen might have an accident during the process, so while undergoing his own Nirvana, he split his focus to keep an eye on Sima Xiaowen, and in the final moment, he nearly succumbed to inner demons.

If not for the Spiritual Fire thrown by Sima Xiaowen, he would’ve had an accident.

Eventually, they both fell into a deep darkness together.

When he woke up, it seemed like more than ten years had passed in the world.

Because his body had already recovered its youthful appearance.

Fortunately, he awoke first, hurriedly dressed in the clothes hidden in a concealed spot in the cave, and then took out Xiao Wen’s clothes, placed them beside her with his eyes closed, and swiftly rushed outside.

Inside and outside the valley, collapsed boulders could be seen everywhere; the Barrier was something he couldn’t break with his current cultivation.

At that time, he didn’t feel hopeless.

Instead, a trace of joy surfaced in his heart.

Because in this world, there were only him and Sima Xiaowen, no one else.

Sima Xiaowen had lost much of her memory for some reason.

Yet, because of this, he secretly felt happy. Back then, he was selfish, harboring a hopeful mentality, wishing this place would remain undiscovered forever, just him and Xiao Wen here.

Afterward, he and Sima Xiaowen fell in love, and at that time, he was filled with joy and happiness, wishing he could bring all the best things in the world to her.

Luckily, he had many good items in his storage ring, allowing them to live a carefree life in the valley, akin to an Imaginary Land of Joy and Plenty, except for lacking interaction with others.

Still, they never crossed the line, after all, both had fathers.

In that era, people like them are considered to be engaging in a clandestine relationship without proper engagement.

He wasn’t worried about his reputation being damaged, but he was concerned about how it might affect Sima Xiaowen and their future children.

Moreover, he still had a marriage agreement with Liu Ling.

Even though, from beginning to end, he never even touched Liu Ling’s fingertip.

Not canceling the engagement meant he and Xiao Wen couldn’t be together.

So, despite his reluctance to leave, he had to work hard on his cultivation, striving to break the Barrier, hoping to return to the Phoenix Clan’s Divine Land soon to decisively end the engagement with Liu Ling.

He built two wooden houses.

On opposite banks of a river.

Xiao Wen lived in the most beautiful wooden house, and he and Xiao Wen even built a wooden bridge over the river together.

They also made a boat, and when they had nothing else to do, they would row on the river.

Xiao Wen was naturally optimistic, and back then, she seemed as if she were soaring in happiness every day.

In countless later reminisces, he truly regretted his indecision!

Liu Ling was brought in by his stepmother, said to have been raised meticulously.

But later, he learned that his seemingly pure girl fiancée had already been with a man named Shui Liuzi before their engagement.

That man belonged to the Mystic Sect, but his foundation was weak, and cultivation wasn’t strong, causing Liu Ling’s parents to disdain him.

And Liu Ling, one could say, was a very pragmatic woman, entirely different from naive Sima Xiaowen.

Weighing the pros and cons, Liu Ling decisively abandoned the man named Shui Liuzi, then followed his scheming stepmother to the Divine Land.

She then became his fiancée and rarely left the Divine Land, but had that been the case, things might have been fine, yet she kept entangled with that man.

He only found out about all this later, by that point, his clan leader father had already taken him out of the valley, including Sima Xiaowen.

Before leading them out, his powerful clan leader father erased memories of their experiences and replaced the person who saved him during Nirvana with Liu Ling.

Then, life reverted to its previous monotony.

Back then he didn’t realize it was monotonous, as he had already forgotten that period of splendor like Chaoyang.

Perhaps it was destiny, or maybe because their Nirvana happened on the same day, during the second Nirvana, as if arranged by fate, he was once again alone with Sima Xiaowen. This time he saved her.

But this time wasn’t as lucky as the last one, his clan leader father soon found him once more, erasing and sealing both his and Sima Xiaowen’s memories.

Following was the restless appearance of Shui Liuzi.

He and Liu Ling had already discussed it in advance.
