He felt guilty!
He felt remorse!
Although he...
He felt remorseful!
Even though he knew that the Shen Subing before him was an illusion, a fake, he still couldn't bear to wake up!
Because he loved Su Bing too much, and missed her terribly.
“I’m sorry… truly sorry.” Tan Yun walked towards Shen Subing, tears welling in his eyes.
When Tan Yun stood before the sobbing Shen Subing, he raised his right hand, wanting to caress her cheek, but his hand froze in mid-air.
He was afraid!
He was afraid that the moment he touched her, she would disappear.
“Wuwu… husband, I miss you so much.” As Shen Subing cried and lunged into Tan Yun's embrace, he opened his eyes wide.
He actually felt the warmth of Shen Subing's body!
“What a powerful illusion, it feels so real!” Tan Yun was shocked inside.
Although he knew it was all an illusion, a fantasy, he couldn't help but hold Shen Subing tightly in his embrace, unwilling to let go.
“Do you miss me, husband?” Shen Subing choked out.
“I do!” Tan Yun closed his eyes, holding Shen Subing tightly, with deep emotion he said, “Do you know? Over the years, I missed you so much that I went crazy!”
“I really, really miss you.”
“Husband, you are so good to me.” Shen Subing smiled through her tears, snuggling into Tan Yun's arms.
“Of course! If I don’t treat my Su Bing well, who else will I treat well?” Tan Yun smiled, and a stream of tears of longing broke free from the shackles of his eyelids, sliding down his handsome face.
“Husband, please don’t leave me again, okay?” Shen Subing's gaze was filled with worry.
Tan Yun gently released Su Bing, speaking softly, “Su Bing, I still have matters to handle, I must leave.”
“No, I don’t want you to go.” Shen Subing shook her head vigorously.
“Su Bing, don't cry. Wait for me, I will definitely find you.” After saying that, as Tan Yun turned to activate the primordial divine eye to break the Illusion Array, a heart-wrenching cry followed, “Husband, don’t leave me!”
“Wuwu… husband, don’t abandon Su Bing!”
Hearing Shen Subing's heartbroken cries, Tan Yun's tears flowed uncontrollably.
He knew all of this was an illusion, a fantasy, but his heart still hurt like being cut by a knife!
“Husband, don’t abandon me!” Shen Subing's eyes were filled with sorrow as she fell to the ground, clutching Tan Yun's right leg tightly.
Tan Yun's fists clenched tightly as he slowly turned back, wanting to take one last look at Shen Subing before leaving.
But he never turned his head. He was afraid that seeing her in pain would make it hard for him to leave.
Tan Yun took a deep breath, letting the tears fall, as a strange red glow suddenly erupted from his eyes.
As Tan Yun activated the primordial divine eye, the peach orchard of the outer world before him seemed to face the apocalypse, the sky crumbling, the space collapsing.
“No!”
“No!!”
Shen Subing cried as she faded into dust.
Tan Yun closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and after a long silence, opened his eyes again, only to find the Divine Tower still empty.
The surroundings had vanished, and she was no longer there.
“Su Bing, wait for me. I will definitely work hard to cultivate and find you soon!”
“I promise!”
After saying that, Tan Yun's figure flickered as he swiftly traversed across a thousand massive steps, arriving at the entrance of the thirty-fifth layer of the tower.
Tan Yun learned that inside the thirty-fifth layer, there would be puppet divine generals stopping him.
“A bunch of soulless puppets, how could they possibly block my path?”
Tan Yun smirked coldly. The moment he stepped into the thirty-fifth layer, the tower door behind him closed.
“Boom!”
Suddenly, the void collapsed, and a powerful aura descended from the sky.
“Interesting.” Tan Yun teleported to the side.
“Bang!” With a loud noise, the entire layer trembled as a giant foot, hundreds of feet tall, stomped where Tan Yun had just stood.
Tan Yun looked up and saw a humanoid puppet towering over eighteen hundred feet, exuding the aura of the ninth layer of ancestral sage realm, its eyes burning with a ghostly green light, looking down at him.
