Chapter 27 The End Is Near

"Lin Xian?"

This white-haired, aged woman's eyes were filled with shock and doubt!

But finally… after careful observation, she confirmed the identity of the person before her. With a *dang*, the two handguns she was clutching fell to the ground. She slowly took two steps forward, her withered hands cupping Lin Xian's face!

Her eyes instantly welled up with tears. "You are Lin Xian, but why are you still alive?"

"I… I even attended your funeral."

The Queen's voice choked with sobs. "And… why are you so young? What… what on earth happened to you? You… you looked like this when you died! Why do you still look the same? Am I… am I dreaming?"

As the Queen walked into the moonlight, Lin Xian was finally able to see her face clearly!

Strange… yet with a hint of familiarity!

Especially her eyes, eyes that a normal Dragon Kingdom person could not possibly possess, the sharp eyes unique to the people of the Middle East. "Angelica?" Lin Xian wasn't sure, but he didn't have that many foreign friends. The only person he could think of was Angelica, the Oscar darling of the Seven Deadly Sins Lust, Hollywood's chameleon… Once this thought took root, the more he looked at her, the more similar she seemed. Although her voice was hoarse and old, remembering Angelica in 2024, that was indeed her tone, and among the people Lin Xian knew, she was the only one who would call him "B."

"It's me."

Angelica's emotions were on the verge of collapse. "You still remember me, Lin Xian? You still remember me. If I'm really not dreaming, then what exactly is going on?"

Lin Xian turned around and waved his hand, signaling her not to be so vigilant and to put down the dagger in her hand. Lin Xian really didn't expect that this Queen was actually someone he knew, and someone who hadn't lost her memory.

Looking at Angelica, who was shedding tears while recalling the past!

Lin Xian didn't know how to answer her question!

Because first of all, he hadn't died; secondly, he hadn't hibernated. There was a huge information gap between them, and they needed more communication. He used his sleeve to wipe away Angelica's tears and smiled, "Did you disguise yourself to mislead others?"

Was this the chameleon at it again?

Another performance?

He touched the warm wrinkles on Angelica's face, saw the hair roots without a trace of black, and realized that wiping away the tears hadn't smudged any makeup!

Lin Xian was stunned for a moment!

Angelica once told him that one shouldn't touch water after disguising oneself, otherwise, the disguise would be exposed!

But now, Angelica's face was so tear-streaked, yet he couldn't wipe away any makeup! Lin Xian suddenly felt ashamed! He understood that this time, the aging was not another performance by the chameleon! But… the traces of real time, letting that stunning Oscar-winning, world-renowned, glamorous star finally lose to the ravages of time!

Beauty was gone, youth was gone, time was gone! After years of experience, everything was washed away, leaving only this aging body: and a wrinkled face!

Lin Xian accepted this reality! The ageless witch had finally aged!

Thinking back to the Rhine Village he had visited before, the village chief, Xiang Yue, was even more aged than Angelica now! Even if Xiang Yue hadn't taken the initiative to mention it, Lin Xian couldn't see any traces of Xiang Yue on her!

So, aging is such a cruel thing!

Even though Lin Xian had seen old people and had seen a lot of birth, aging, sickness, and death, but he had clearly witnessed their youthful beauty a few days ago, but turning his head, in the "dream," he saw their twilight years. This exaggerated difference really impacted Lin Xian's senses greatly!

"Angelica!"

Lin Xian continued to wipe away her tears. After her emotions calmed down, he softly asked, "The situation with me might be a bit complicated to explain. Can you tell me what exactly happened in these past few hundred years?"

"I promise you, I am Lin Xian, the real Lin Xian! Perhaps in your eyes, I am already dead. Don't get excited. Just tell me the history you know!"

A shocking statement!

Angelica's appearance here and everything she said surprised Lin Xian!

But he planned to listen to Angelica's story first!

Finally found someone who understood in the Fifth Dream!

Or perhaps!

Angelica spoke of an old acquaintance from hundreds of years ago!

That was the most authentic history. Angelica nodded!

She retreated to the wooden closet next to her, took out a notebook with fully plastic-sealed pages from a drawer, and handed it to Lin Xian. "This is the source of my memory. In order to preserve my memory as much as possible, I recorded…"
