“Yes, I’m awake.” Qu Hua Shang snuggled up to Yang Kai with a joyous expression, “Thank you, for everything.”

Yang Kai slowly shook his head and ran his fingers through her hair.

Then, Qu Hua Shang lifted her head and looked over his shoulder before asking in puzzlement, “What’s going on with Xiao He?”

Since her Heart Barrier was shattered, her memory was also restored. Certainly, she had recalled everything that had happened in the rounds of reincarnation. Since the sixth life, Xiao He had always appeared in the Samsara Worlds that were built upon her Heart Barrier, which concerned her.

She didn’t remember anything about a woman named Luo Ting He. Supposedly, such a person shouldn’t have appeared in her Samsara Worlds.

“I have no idea either; however, I think we’ll find out about it after we leave this place.”

Qu Hua Shang nodded and lifted her head from the man’s embrace before looking at him with a sly gaze, “Well… I’ll see you in the next life then!”

Yang Kai was flabbergasted upon hearing that and in a half-panic asked, “There’s a next life!?”

Without replying to him, Qu Hua Shang winked at him in a cheeky manner. Just then, everything around him started dissipating like a burning picture scroll.

Yang Kai watched his own figure disappearing into the void as his consciousness seemed to have set off on a long journey.

When he came to his senses, he realised that it was pitch-black around him.

Soon, a light tore through the darkness and expanded as the view inside the Samsara Pavilion came into his sight.

Yang Kai was startled for a moment before realising that there wasn’t a next life. Nine lives was the limit in the Samsara Pavilion, which was also the number of lives Qu Hua Shang had set up for her Heart Barrier. She was just pulling a prank earlier.

He slowly shook his head as he was torn between tears and laughter. After stepping out of the tree cave, he looked up at the sky.

Although he finally returned to the real world, Yang Kai still found it to be surreal. The experiences and hardships he had gone through in the nine lives were so vivid that it was as though they had just happened the day before.

The experiences felt so real that it could be said they had actually happened.

Yang Kai could clearly feel that after nine rounds of reincarnation, he was now in a much calmer state. Only a bit more than 100 years had passed after nine rounds of reincarnation, but it was equivalent to 1,000 years of training for his mental state.

The Samsara Pavilion was indeed a place where hearts were trained and tempered.

If a person’s cultivation had progressed too quickly while he was in an unstable mental state, he would gain a lot of benefits by training inside the Samsara Pavilion.

Without the need for any reason, Yang Kai started walking in a particular direction. Although there were no clear indications, he was certain that Qu Hua Shang was in that direction.

Their hearts were now connected after nine rounds of reincarnation.

While he was on his way, he saw an alluring woman moving towards him.

As their eyes met, Qu Hua Shang put on a smile and shuffled over.
