That face could capture souls and enchant dreams. This was the face that appeared in Greedy Wolf's mind every day and every night. He had waited for this day for so many years. Everyone said that Greedy Wolf was a greedy man who was violent and cruel. He never bothered explaining himself since that was truly who he was.
But even such a person had a soft spot for one person.
The woman lying on the platform was so beautiful, it was difficult to describe in words. Her existence seemed to make all the flowers in the world pale in comparison.
If Peter Pan were here, he would have recognized this woman as the most beautiful woman among the martial artists of their time. He would have been shocked to find her here. Greedy Wolf held the woman's hand gently and sat on the platform. "You're going to wake up soon. I said you would, so you
definitely will."
Greedy Wolf took the box in his jacket out and took the black pearl out from the box.
He opened the woman's mouth and put the black pearl in.
The pearl seemed to be alive. The moment it entered the woman's mouth, it started to melt, flow down her throat and entered the rest of her body.
Black wisps of light emanated from the woman's body, and it carried a powerful amount of life energy.This content is © .
Greedy Wolf watched from the side because he was afraid that an accident might happen. This woman was the most important person in his life. Nobody else could make him so worried. The black wisps increased and covered the woman completely. It was both magical and mysterious.
Greedy Wolf waited quietly for the process to be completed.
After a long time, the black beams were slowly absorbed into the woman's body and everything quietened down again.
He became a little anxious and excited at the same time. He watched the woman's eyes and wanted to be the first man she saw when she opened her eyes.
The woman slowly opened her eyes and she looked confusedly at the soft glow from the crystals above her. She had no idea where she was.
But that was the familiar floral scent
she loved, and she was in purple which was also a color she loved. It was as if someone had purposely set up a place with all her favorite things.
"It's you." She sat up and saw Greedy Wolf. Her voice was soft and gentle, but there was a conflicted look in her eyes. "I'm not dead?"
Greedy Wolf shook his head. "I wouldn't let you die." "But...he's dead." The woman smiled sadly.
"Greedy Wolf, why did you do this? You shouldn't have saved me."
"I said that I wouldn't let you die! He died because...he deserved to!"
A vicious look flashed in Greedy Wolf's eyes, along with jealousy and indignation. But it was just a flash, because he didn't want to look like a failure in front of her.
"Yumeng, I've waited for you for many years now." Greedy Wolf sighed a little self-deprecatingly. "You mean you're still not willing to give me a chance?"
The woman called Yumeng tried to
get off the platform, but she wasza little weak and almost lost her balanee. Greedy Wolf immediately ran forward to hold her and his face was covered with worry.
"You haven't healed fully yet and you need some time to rest."
It had taken Greedy Wolf a lot of effort to maintain her body until now. He hadn't been looking for the Longevity Pond for his own sake.
"You really shouldn't have saved me." Yumeng shook her head and pushed his hand away. "He's dead, so I should have died with him. I don't deserve to live."
"Why? Why can't you let go of him? What's so great about him? Which part of me cannot compare to him?"
Greedy Wolf took a deep breath and tried his best to suppress his fury.
He was feeling really indignant inside.
It had been more than a hundred years.
More than a hundred years!
He had persisted for so long and had tried so hard to find a way to revive her. Why wasn't she grateful at all?
"You are wonderful too, but you are
not him." Yumeng remained as gentle as before, as though she had no temper and spoke softly and sweetly no matter what. "But if put it like that, are you going to kill me again?"
