The Phoenix Reborn Book II

Chapter 169 The Companion

Long ago, Huang Miaoling always wondered as to whether Wang Chengliu ever had feelings for him. At the end of his first life, Huang Miaoling thought the answer was no, ‘no’ because the man only loved the throne.

However, it turns out that Huang Miaoling was wrong.

From the beginning, Wang Chengliu loved only one person.

Lan’er.

As Huang Miaoling focused on the shocking reality, he felt someone clasping his hand. He raised his gaze and saw Liang Fenghong smiling at him.

The man's gaze seemed to say, “I'm here, is it still necessary for you to think of that man?”

Staring at Liang Fenghong, Huang Miaoling smiled and realized that it was not important to think about the past. The woman looked at Lan’er.

“So, after finding out you are not tied to the Huang Family, he turned around targeting us?” huang Miaoling asked, continuing the discussion. “Why?”

Huang Miaoling's question made Lan’er fall silent again. The girl found it difficult to tell the truth.

However, the scene before his eyes changed again.

Lan’er explained, “After learning that I am not part of the Huang Family, Wang Chengliu felt very confused, and he ended up looking for me.”

The scene in plain sight revealed the figure of Wang Chengliu riding his horse to walk through the forest where Lan’er's residence was supposed to be.

The moment the man reached his destination, he immediately got off his horse and intended to step inside the residence. However, he stopped when he saw the figure of Lan’er reading a book under the apple tree in the middle of the page.

“Lan’er ...,” Wang Chengliu muttered in a low voice, so low that Lan’er was unaware of his arrival.

Seeing the girl still alive made Wang Chengliu very grateful. However, on the other hand, worry gnawed at his heart.

Wang Chengliu was reminded of how Lan’er lost his life due to Wang Wuyu. This caused fear in Wang Chengliu's heart, convinced that the same thing would happen if he did not first clear up the issue of the seizure of the throne!

As a result, Wang Chengliu paused his intention to meet Lan’er and instead turned away without meeting the girl in the slightest.

With a determined look, Wang Chengliu said, “However, I will make sure that no one else can hurt you!”

Liang Fenghong looked focused on Wang Chengliu's figure leaving the forest. The man instantly knew what was on the sixth prince's mind in those days.

“I ... can understand his actions,” said Liang Fenghong, making Lan’er and Huang Miaoling turn. “Knowing that security can only be created by power, he was determined to take the throne before bringing you back with him..”

Huang Miaoling nodded his head, then clenched his hands. “Dan, since my self in those days fell for her, she used that feeling to reach her goal.”

Lan’er nodded his head. His eyes flashed with sadness as he stared at Wang Chengliu's changes that became increasingly vile and cunning as time passed.

“When I was able to get involved, it was too late.”

Lan’er's eyes exuded disappointment, especially as she stared at the scene in plain sight.

It appeared that Lan’er in his second life had escaped the limits of fate and had just arrived at Shi Kingdom. However, the first thing he witnessed was the grand marriage of Huang Miaoling, the girl who in his past life was his nephew, and Wang Chengliu, the man who previously held the status of his legal husband.

“I was confused, crushed, and injured,” clear Lan’er. “Will but, the main one is .. I hate.” The girl's face turned cloudy. “On me who is easily influenced by feelings, and on him who toyed with my feelings.”

The next second, Lan’er closed his eyes, calming himself back down.

The scene in plain sight showed all the death, loss, and torture that had occurred in Shi Kingdom. All caused by Wang Chengliu's scheming and vile.

“However, upon hearing that Wang Chengliu had succeeded to the throne and ended up torturing Huang Miaoling, I realized something was wrong.”

Lan’er's figure in the second life read the contents of her book and found a strange discrepancy in the story.

“I also realized that all the chaos happened because of me and Wang Chengliu who have memories from past life.” Lan’er sighed and continued, “Therefore, I must take responsibility and justify everything.”

Just as Lan’er said that, the scene in front of the middle eye showed how the girl thrust a sword through Wang Chengliu's chest at the end of the second life.

“Dan, it started with me having to kill him.” Lan’er stared straight at Wang Chengliu's pair of black beads in his past life which emitted a deep disappointment as he stared at her. “Including destroying memories immersed in his spirit.”

In his place, Huang Miaoling who had just first seen the scene of Wang Chengliu's death in his second life looked startled. She did not expect the death of that man to be so sad.

Died at the hands of the woman he fought from the beginning.

Knowledge of the past made Huang Miaoling's feelings jumbled.

At this moment, the scene in plain sight had reached the point Lan’er formed a pact with Liang Fenghong.

“The pay is big, are you sure you're willing?” Looks Lan’er in second life asked Liang Fenghong.

“Even if my life is paid, I would give it to make amends to Huang Miaoling.”

As the sentence was spoken, Huang Miaoling was surprised to see the figure of Lan’er in the second life by heartily thrusting his sword into Liang Fenghong's chest. It ended with Lan’er receiving an attack from the imperial escort's bodyguards.

After Lan’er in his second life ended up falling to the ground with blood rushing from his wound, the girl on the verge of death stared at Wang Chengliu, then pointed her hand at the man's hand.

The second Lan’er's hand clasped Wang Chengliu's, a blinding light suddenly appeared.

Lan’er's inner voice in those days echoed loudly like a desperate cry, ‘In the next life, you must not save the memory of this life and before!’

Then, the scene turns dark and a third life begins.

Lan’er woke up in the same place, the same situation, but with a new figure accompanying his journey.

Manik Lan’er at the beginning of the third life looked surprised as he stared at the red-eyed figure that welcomed his awakening in the body of the weak girl in the shabby hut.

The sweet smile that formed on the face was similar to the figure that Lan’er recognized it made the creator freeze in place.

“Lan, you finally realized.”

The sentence that was thrown from the thin lips made Lan’er at the beginning of the third life blinked his eyes in confusion.

“Lu .. Si?”
