After all, no one wants their loved ones to have an unhappy ending in a parallel world, or for them to have entanglements with other people.
That would be incredibly annoying, as the words of the powerful figures across countless realms can be deadly.
Now, I can finally relax!
"Honey, what's wrong? Can you take me into the mission world with you?" Gu Ziyun, who was standing to the side, saw Li Ling staring blankly for a long time without moving, and couldn't help but reach out and pat him.
Li Ling snapped out of his daze, laughed heartily at her, planted a big kiss on her cheek, and exclaimed, "Wife, you're my wife no matter where you are in the myriad realms!"
"What's wrong, honey? Why are you so happy?" Gu Ziyun reached out and wiped the drool left by Li Ling's kiss on her face. She looked at Li Ling with great surprise. It was the first time she had ever seen her man so out of control.
Throughout their time together, Li Ling has always been steady and reliable, and has always been the person she relies on the most.
Although he often thinks about intimate things when they're together, well, he's a man, after all! What kind of man isn't a little lecherous? She loves him just as much, so what's wrong with him today?
Li Ling composed himself and looked at the surprised expression on Zi Yun's face before saying, "Yes, we can go to the mission world together, but the only way to enter this world is through reincarnation."
Then he told Ziyun everything the system had told him, which left Ziyun speechless with astonishment, unable to process it for a long time.
After a while, Gu Ziyun finally regained her composure and hugged Li Ling happily, saying, "Honey, we are each other's only one!"
As she spoke, Ziyun raised her head and looked at Li Ling with an extremely serious expression, saying each word clearly, "Husband, I want to be with you for life. We will explore the mission world together and never be separated!"
Li Ling was deeply moved by Zi Yun's words. He took her hand, and the two looked at each other, their understanding unspoken.
He pondered for a moment, then asked the system, "System, how do I recognize the member I'm carrying after she's reincarnated?"
"Ding! The person who was reincarnated by the carried member has a causal connection with the host. As various events occur, they will naturally come to the host's side. After the system awakens, they will break the seal together with the host and awaken their original memories and abilities."
"Okay, that's good." Li Ling breathed a sigh of relief. He was worried that with their memories sealed by the system, they would become like strangers and miss each other for a lifetime.
Now that all doubts were gone, Li Ling looked at Gu Ziyun, and the two intertwined their fingers. Gu Ziyun nodded, and Li Ling whispered to the system, "System, let us enter the mission world."
"Whoosh~"
A flash of light, and Li Ling and Gu Ziyun disappeared from the sofa, entering the mission world. (The remaining text appears to be unrelated and likely refers to a separate entity or event.)

Chapter 220: The Remnant Soul of Chi You
In a dark and vast underground palace, Li Ling opened his eyes.
"These are the Dragon Emperor's memories... I am the Dragon Emperor!"
A memory was implanted into his mind; it was his memory of being the Dragon Emperor in this world.
This memory is rich and colorful, including not only his life after being reincarnated as the Dragon Emperor, but also the Five Elements magic he mastered, the art of transforming into a dragon, and the secret method to awaken the Qin army.
"Um?"
Deep within my memory, a soul fluctuation still lingers. "What is this?"
The next moment, the universe in his mind trembled slightly, and the 'World Tree' that had grown to an inch tall inside the universe suddenly stretched out a branch that pierced into the void and disappeared. The end of the branch that disappeared entered Li Ling's sea of consciousness.
"Click~ Click~"
A fleeting image deep within the sea of consciousness was pierced by a branch of the World Tree. After trembling a few times, the fleeting image shattered completely and was absorbed by the World Tree.
The next moment, the World Tree fed back a series of information that flowed into Li Ling's sea of consciousness, and images flashed before Li Ling's eyes—
A giant man with a bull's head and a human body led eighty men with ferocious, inhuman faces, followed by a series of strong, tall men as they charged forward.
The burly man with the bull's head, wielding a gleaming, cold-blooded sword, roared to the sky. The sword transformed into a white tiger, fiercely slashing down at a five-clawed dragon with wings on its back. The dragon flapped its wings, instantly unleashing a storm that swept across the land to meet the bull-headed man's attack...
A middle-aged man dressed in a yellow robe with dragon patterns and an imposing demeanor attacked the bull-headed giant with a sword engraved on one side with the sun, moon, and stars, and on the other side with mountains, rivers, and plants...
Another woman, her body radiating crimson malevolent energy, with an ugly face and sparse hair, had an icy expression. As the crimson malevolent energy emanated from her, the earth cracked inch by inch, turning the land into a barren wasteland for miles around...
High in the heavens, a sacred and inviolable woman of grace coldly observes the battle raging on the ground...
...
After digesting these memories, Li Ling muttered to himself: "The Battle of Zhuolu, Emperor Xuanyuan, the remnant soul of Chiyou, Yinglong's bloodshed, the drought demon, the Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden... No wonder there are Five Elements magic and the art of dragon transformation, as well as the Twelve Golden Men."
Li Ling felt a series of shocks as he absorbed the memories of the remnant soul deep within his mind, resolving the doubts he had while watching the movie.
It turns out to be a memory of the "Battle of Zhuolu" between Chi You and the Yellow Emperor, where Chi You led the warriors of the Jiuli tribe and eighty brothers to fight against the Yellow Emperor for supremacy.
The Jiuli tribe was descended from the shamans, who were born from the intermarriage of the shamans and humans. The Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan received help from the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady, and by chance, he transformed into the daughter of the drought demon and received assistance from Yinglong.
After a fierce battle, Chi You was defeated. After his defeat, the Yellow Emperor cut off his head and cut off his body into eight pieces, which were then buried in the eight corners of the earth before he finally died.
Although Chi You's body died, his primordial spirit did not perish. He burned his primordial spirit, wrapped with his own essence blood and a drop of Yinglong's essence blood obtained from severely injuring Yinglong that day, and used the energy generated by the burning of his primordial spirit to open a spatial passage and enter this subordinate minor world. Finally, his remnant soul relied on the newly reincarnated Dragon Emperor 'Ying Zheng'.
Because Chi You's primordial spirit burned and became a remnant soul, and he consumed too much power to resist spatial turbulence while traversing space, the consciousness within the remaining remnant soul perished, leaving only an unconscious remnant soul that merged into the Dragon Emperor's soul.
The Dragon Emperor obtained the remnant soul consciousness of Chi You, Chi You's essence blood, and that drop of Yinglong's essence blood, thus mastering the bloodline talent of the Wu Clan and the ability to transform into Yinglong.
However, this remnant soul ultimately belonged to the demon god Chi You. Although its consciousness had dissipated, the level of its soul and the energy it contained were beyond what the mortal Dragon Emperor could fully digest and absorb.
Now that Li Ling's main consciousness has awakened, this remnant soul has been completely digested by the World Tree.
As Li Ling absorbed more and more memories contained within this remnant soul, he also learned more about the great secrets of heaven and earth.
That was a glorious era. The primordial world had been created, and it had experienced the great calamity of ancient ferocious beasts, survived the struggle for supremacy among the three races of dragon, phoenix, and qilin. The dragon and phoenix retreated into seclusion, and the qilin perished. In the present era, the witch and demon races stand in a tripartite balance.
In the struggle between the Dao and the Demon, Hongjun emerged victorious and became the first sage of the Heavenly Dao. After the Demon Ancestor Luohou failed and self-destructed, his remnant soul swore an oath to the Heavenly Dao to establish the Demon Realm.
