TSFLIP Chapter 662

Yun Ji’s hand, hanging at his side, clenched into a tight fist. Nai He’s words had, without a doubt, provoked a reaction in him.

Nai He then turned his gaze to Jun Yu, the corners of his eyes lifting slightly. “Of course, the one I should thank most is the Demon Lord. If not for you, Feng Guang and I would never have had the chance to begin.”

Jun Yu’s expression shifted—ever so slightly, fleetingly—but it was still enough to show he’d been affected.

“And then there’s this one…” Nai He finally looked toward Xia Yanyu. “This young lady, who has disguised herself to look exactly like Feng Guang.”

Xia Yanyu lifted her head. The knowing gleam in Nai He’s eyes made her pupils contract.

“Your true form,” Nai He said evenly, “is obvious to me at a glance. Five hundred years ago, a single teardrop shed by Feng Guang absorbed the spiritual power she left behind and, in doing so, gained sentience. You reincarnated alongside her, and when the time came, you deliberately chose to take on the same face as Feng Guang.”

Both Jun Yu and Yun Ji turned their eyes to Xia Yanyu. She bit her lip and stayed silent, but from her expression, it was clear she had regained her memories.

Back then, when Feng Guang—still in her Dragon Maiden form—had walked across the Nai He Bridge, Nai He had sensed a lingering trace of spiritual power clinging to her soul. At the time, he couldn’t make sense of it. But seeing Xia Yanyu now, everything became clear.

Feng Guang listened to Nai He’s words and thought for a long moment before recalling that, indeed, she had shed a single tear at the moment of her death. She rifled through her memory of the original story and realized that it had never explained why the heroine and the female supporting character ended up as identical twin sisters. Now, hearing Nai He’s explanation, she was left stunned.

She asked, “Yanyu… is what Nai He said true?”

“…Yes.” Yanyu nodded. At this point, there was no reason to deny it.

The one who could least accept this truth was Yun Ji. His voice was ice-cold. “Why would you do this?”

If not for Xia Yanyu… the one standing beside Feng Guang now would have been him. The one she liked would have been him. They’d had a real chance. He had waited five hundred years for that chance—and now it was gone, all of it.

“I didn’t mean to…” Xia Yanyu shook her head in pain. She felt the man beside her looking at her and glanced at Jun Yu, her eyes clouded with even more anguish. “I was born from the Dragon Maiden’s tear. Back then… I was simply curious about what love felt like after hearing her story with the Demon Lord. But gradually, I became lost in that story. I couldn’t help but put myself in her place. And when I encountered the Demon Lord… it was me, not her. In that instant before reincarnation… I lost control. I cast a spell on myself—a spell that would give me the Dragon Maiden’s appearance.”

She turned toward Feng Guang, who stood there dazed. Letting go of Jun Yu’s arm, she took a few steps closer, eyes glistening with tears. “I’m sorry… Feng Guang, I didn’t know… I didn’t know the Demon Lord would still come looking for you. And… and—”

“And that he would mistake someone else for me,” Feng Guang finished calmly, shaking her head. “This isn’t your fault.”

If Jun Yu hadn’t mistaken someone else for her, she would’ve been in far greater trouble!

Xia Yanyu’s tears spilled over. Her voice trembled with guilt. “No… it is my fault. The night you fell from the building, all of my memories had already returned. I knew Jun Yu had mistaken me for you… but I didn’t tell him. Feng Guang, I’m sorry—I stole the man you loved most…”
