Empty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dining area lay still, lit only by a single flickering lantern mounted on the wall. Shadows stretched long across the floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wuhen tilted his head, his expression darkening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah...?\" A scoff left him, low and sharp, his fangs briefly catching the dim light. His nine tails swayed behind him, slow and deliberate, his red-gold eyes gleaming in the gloom. \"She’s not here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t turn. Not until Rong Yue stepped into the chamber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wuhen glanced at him, then walked over, lifting a hand to cup Rong Yue’s cheek with unsettling calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It means she’s a threat,\" His smile thinned. \"I should have killed her when I saw her earlier.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice dropped, almost a whisper. \"I would have torn her heart out. Ningyan would have loved that.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rong Yue’s lips twitched faintly, though his gaze had already shifted, scanning the room. \"If she’s not here, I’ll have the guards search the palace,\" he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wuhen hummed in agreement, already turning away. He went straight to the children’s chamber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, he lifted Su Miao into his arms. The boy stirred immediately, his hazel serpent eyes fluttering open. \"Dad... Wuhen...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wuhen smiled softly, brushing his hair back. \"Let’s get you back to your father,\" he murmured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He shifted, picking up Su Ruo as well but when his gaze fell on Su Mian’s bed...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Empty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wuhen froze. \"...Mian?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He checked the bathing chamber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He searched every corner of the room, both children still in his arms but there was no trace of her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Something cold tightened in his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he returned to the main chamber, Jun Haoxuan and Lan Meishan were still there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They both looked up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wuhen rarely looked shaken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now... he did.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What happened?\" Jun Haoxuan rose immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can’t find Mian.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What?\" Haoxuan frowned. \"But we just—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Han Yunyi isn’t in her chamber either.\" Wuhen gently placed the still-sleeping children onto the bed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While Jun Haoxuan was already moving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orders spread instantly. Guards flooded the palace. Searches extended beyond its walls, into the capital itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every corner. Every shadow was being searched but there was no Su Mian or Han Yunyi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The atmosphere of the entire palace turned heavy and oppressive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because when Su Ningyan woke and heard, everything changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t shout. He didn’t rage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But something in him shifted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He kept Su Miao and Su Ruo constantly within his sight, never letting them stray even a step away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did not cling to his husbands. He did not seek comfort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if he refused to let anything soften what was growing inside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes burned with a vivid purple light. The crystal within him restless and unstable as days passed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And still... he refused to let anyone near.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even as the energy within him rushed violently, like waves crashing against his body, he endured it silently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seven days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was how long it took before the truth became undeniable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Yunyi had taken Su Mian. And despite the combined efforts of all four divine beast clans, despite every eye, every scout, every search, there was no trace of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>^°^\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leaving the Azure Dragon Clan behind, Ningyan chose to retreat to the Abyss Serpent Clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He brought the children with him and sealed himself away into deep cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For days that stretched into weeks, he remained within the chamber, cutting himself off from the outside world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Using the wrath. Using the instability of the crystal. Turning both into fuel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lan Meishan stood at the entrance of the chamber, watching. His expression was faintly creased with worry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside him, Su Miao clung to his leg, small arms wrapped tightly around him as he peeked toward the closed doors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His hazel serpent eyes were filled with unease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ningyan hadn’t been himself. Not for a long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meishan exhaled quietly and bent down, lifting the boy into his arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come,\" he murmured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned and walked down the hall only to be stopped by one of the serpent guards, who bowed and presented two scrolls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meishan accepted them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could even react, Su Miao reached out and grabbed one, curiosity lighting up his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meishan opened the other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wuhen’s writing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Yunyi has been sighted in Fire City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze sharpened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he turned to the second scroll.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A golden sigil shimmered across its surface. The mark of the phoenix clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meishan’s eyes narrowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He attempted to open it but the moment his fingers brushed the seal, a fierce golden light flared outward, coiling tightly around the scroll, rejecting him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He lowered his hand slowly and set Su Miao back onto the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Go to Papa Xuan,\" he said softly. \"Stay with your sister.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miao hesitated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But... Father...\" his voice wavered. \"When is he going to be okay? He misses Mian, doesn’t he?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, Meishan said nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he reached out, ruffling the boy’s hair with a faint smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He will be fine,\" he said quietly. \"Now go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miao nodded reluctantly and hurried off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only after he was gone did Meishan turn back and walk toward the chamber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The doors opened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ningyan was already awake. He sat against the wall, his back pressed to the cold stone, his long hair falling loosely around him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes glowed. A deep, unsettling purple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked exhausted. Drained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And yet, still unbearably beautiful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re finally out of cultivation,\" Meishan said, stepping inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He poured a cup of water and walked over, holding it out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ningyan took it without a word and drank it in one breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His chest rose and fell. A shaky exhale followed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meishan watched him closely, concern evident now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haoxuan is here,\" he said. \"He can help you stabilize the crystal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I...\" Ningyan’s voice shook. His gaze had shifted to the scroll in Meishan’s hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wha...\" His pupils dilated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That sigil...\" he whispered. \"Is that—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meishan stepped closer and knelt in front of him, holding out the scroll. \"Han Yunyi was sighted in Fire City.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ningyan’s head snapped up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their eyes met. \"I’m going to kill her this time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meishan’s lips pressed together faintly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Before you open it,\" he said carefully, \"you should let Haoxuan ease the strain of the crystal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ningyan didn’t respond. His attention was already fixed on the scroll.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before his fingers could touch it, Meishan pulled it back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ningyan froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slowly, he looked up. \"Why are you stopping me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Disbelief flickered in his voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scroll vanished into Meishan’s essence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am not stopping you,\" Meishan said quietly. \"I am trying to help you, so that your pain and wrath do not consume you... and disrupt your cultivation.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I..I am perfectly fine.\" Ningyan’s voice trembled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sniffed softly, but the tears gathering in his eyes betrayed him. \"I am just... sad.... And afraid.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pressed his hand tightly against his chest, as if trying to steady something collapsing within him. \"My daughter...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice broke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What if I see her like that...?\" he whispered. \"What if my nightmare comes true?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His fingers curled against his robes. \"What if everything I have been running from...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stopped and slowly lifted his hollow gaze to Meishan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please,\" he said softly. \"Give me the scroll, Shan’er.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Something in Meishan’s chest tightened painfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had never imagined seeing Ningyan like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You told me,\" Meishan said, his voice low but steady, \"to learn how to refuse you. Today... is the day I must.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ningyan’s eyes widened. Tears slipped free.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meishan held his gaze, even as his throat constricted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You need to be well,\" he continued. \"Only then can we succeed in finding her.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ningyan’s lips parted as if to argue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But no words came.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because the truth was that he didn’t want to be well. He wanted to sink into it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fear. The dread. The crushing weight pressing in from all sides.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The image of holding his daughter’s lifeless body would not leave him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sniffed, wiping his tears with the back of his hand, breathing unevenly as he leaned back against the wall. \"I... don’t...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then his eyes widened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you think...\" he whispered, \"this is what they want?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meishan immediately stepped forward, reaching for him but Ningyan shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The gesture was small.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it stopped him completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meishan’s hand slowly fell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t...\" Ningyan’s voice wavered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, suddenly, \"If I go mad... will you kill me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The glow in his eyes flickered violently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meishan froze. \"...What?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I think this is what they want,\" Ningyan continued, his voice distant now, as though he were unraveling his thoughts in real time. \"To push me into pain... into fear... So I lose control. So everything I have... is stripped away.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His breathing grew uneven. \"And then... A perfect beast god. Filled with nothing but wrath.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meishan’s eyes stung. \"Ningyan...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Ningyan looked at him again.... truly looked this time. And there was something frightening in his gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clarity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s what they want,\" he said softly. \"And it’s working.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took a step forward. \"In such a short time...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took another step. \"Can’t you see it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He reached out grasping Meishan’s sleeve tightly. \"Can you see it, my dear husband?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice dropped to a fragile whisper. \"They want you to kill me. They want all of you... to kill me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His fingers tightened. \"Will you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The question hung in the air, sharp and devastating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meishan pulled Ningyan into his arms tightly, afraid he might shatter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I... I.. love you, my sweet affection.\" His breath broke as he pressed a hand to the back of Ningyan’s head and an emerald glow spread gently between them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ningyan stilled almost instantly. The tension drained from his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes fluttered shut. And then he went completely limp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meishan caught him. He lifted Ningyan into his arms, holding him close against his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His expression hardened but the pain in his eyes did not fade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without a word, he turned and walked out of the chamber.\u003C\u002Fp>",1666,"2026-06-06T15:58:25.184Z",1,"novelbin.me","3ace8c1a39720b77df8acee80e409b942d2937981f25e8ada1b66e82186345ae","transmigration-the-villain-wants-a-happy-end-wit-chapter-219","transmigration-the-villain-wants-a-happy-end-wit-chapter-217",228,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ftransmigration-the-villain-wants-a-happy-end-wit-cover.jpg"]
