This was the greatest regret that he had held in this life.

The fact that he had never said these words to his grandmother before.

He has always thought of himself as a tough person, so he never liked to show any weakness by saying things like "love". However, he regretted the fact that he never said it in the end.

His grandmother had passed before he had grown up enough to realize that not saying it wasn't tough at all, rather he was just being dumb. He never had a chance to say these words to his grandmother before, which had been the last knot in his heart.

When his grandmother heard this, she revealed a gentle smile and took him in a hug as he said, "I love you too Ah Fan, you should always remember that."

At that moment, there was a flash of white light that had appeared around him. Lin Fan knew that he had cleared this stage and that everything was about to disappear, but he didn't want to leave so soon.

Lin Fan was about to say something, but his grandmother said some words that made him swallow his words.

His grandmother said, "Ah Fan, are you living your life the way you want to? Do you feel that you are doing the right thing?"

Lin Fan didn't know how to respond to this, he didn't even understand why his grandmother had suddenly said these words. Naturally he didn't know how to respond either, since this question had completely caught him off guard.

His grandmother slightly knit her brows as she asked, "Ah Fan, are you happy with the way your life is right now?"

Lin Fan felt ripples appearing in his heart and he couldn't help saying, "Yes, I'm very content with my life right now."

His grandmother's knit brows relaxed as she said with a smile, "That's good Ah Fan. I just want you to live a happy life."

Lin Fan wanted to say something else, but before he could, the scene in front of him had disappeared. He was heading back to the room with the mirror, or at least he thought he was.

When the white light in front of him cleared, he found himself in a strange white space with nothing around him at all.

This was a world of complete emptiness, all that he could see around him was a world of pure white.

The only thing that was inside this world was a single kotatsu table and a large TV that was placed in front of it. On the table, there were various snack wrappers that were thrown all over without care.

Lin Fan came over to the table and found that there was a mysterious lump that was currently lying under the kotatsu.

Lin Fan slowly approached it and was about to poke it to see what it was before it suddenly stretched out its hands to hit Lin Fan in the face.

There was blood that spurted out of Lin Fan's nose from being hit and he immediately reeled back from that impact.

The most surprising thing to him was not the fact that he had been hit. The most surprising thing was that with his physique, this hit had actually made his nose bleed!

That meant that this hit was at least past the Fragmented Soul Realm!

But Lin Fan could tell that he hadn't been able to resist it at all, so it wasn't just in the Embryo Soul Realm, it might even be past that!

Just where had he been taken to that there was such a powerful expert here?

After reeling back from the hit, Lin Fan turned his eyes back to the mysterious lump that had been under the kotatsu and he found that it was actually a beautiful young girl.

This girl had short turquoise hair and emerald green eyes, making her look like quite the tomboy, but the most beautiful thing about her was her white skin. It was so pale and dazzling that Lin Fan almost wasn't able to look directly at this girl.

Perhaps the only thing to complain about was that this girl's chest was a bit flat…

The girl turned to look at Lin Fan and she looked him up and down before revealing a look of surprise.

She tilted her head to think before asking, "What are you doing here?"

Lin Fan wanted to ask the same question, but he didn't know what to say, so he just said, "I don't know."

The girl didn't dwell on it that long before getting up and moving around Lin Fan, looking over every inch of his body.

For some reason, Lin Fan almost felt like her eyes could see right through him, seeing all the way to his soul. Which it actually could, but he didn't know that…

Lin Fan couldn't help feeling awkward standing there being gawked at by the girl, so he asked, "Um, do we know each other? Why are you looking at me like this?"

The girl just completely ignored Lin Fan's questions and continued circling around him. After going around for a few minutes, she finally stopped to think.

While thinking she had this peculiar habit of tapping her lips, which drew Lin Fan's eyes to them and he couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva.

Her pursed lips really were enticing, he almost had the urge to throw himself at them, but he used everything he could to endure.

To be honest, the beauty of this girl was one that could even match Angela and Angela had been the most beautiful girl he had ever seen in his life.

After thinking for a bit, the girl suddenly muttered to herself, "It seems like the integration didn't work perfectly, it seems like both souls are still clashing with each other and haven't merged yet…"

Lin Fan couldn't understand a single word that this girl was saying, so he asked, "What are you talking about? Are you talking about me?"

Two souls, could that mean him since he had transmigrated?

What did she mean by "integration didn't work perfectly"?

What souls clashing and yet to merge?

The girl once again ignored him as she said to herself, "But why is he here?"

The girl went back to the table and turned on the TV. She changed channels several times and every time the channel changed, there was another amazing scene that appeared on the screen. It went from dragons fighting in the sky to a Lich leading an army of the undead to besiege a castle to thunder falling down on a castle like rain and one man standing under it with an umbrella like nothing was happening.

Finally the image on the TV settled on the room with the mirror Lin Fan had been in previously. Standing in front of the mirror were the five of them with Lin Fan's pets guarding them.

The girl saw the mirror and she revealed a look of understanding, "So it was there! The Beast Clan was the one who took that mirror!"

Then she fell into thought again as she muttered, "It must have reacted to the energy of the system and created a temporary link to this realm…"

Lin Fan's body turned numb the moment he heard the word "system". This person knew that he had the system, just who was this person?

Or rather, the more important thing, were they friend or foe?

Lin Fan raised his guard, but the girl suddenly turned to Lin Fan with a smile and asked, "Do you want to ask a question?"

Lin Fan couldn't help being taken aback by this, but he still nodded.

The girl then said, "I'll answer one of your questions if you answer one of mine."

Once again, Lin Fan nodded since he didn't know what else to do here.

The girl asked with a smile, "Lin Fan, what do you think of this world?"

Lin Fan was once again taken aback, as he didn't know how to answer this. This question seemed like a vague question, but there must be a reason for this girl to be asking this, especially with how much it seemed like she knew.

In the end, Lin Fan answered honestly, "There are things that are important to me in this world, so I don't hate it."

The girl nodded with a smile, "That's good enough for now. Now, ask your question."

There were many questions that had been on Lin Fan's mind for this girl, such as who she was, where was this, and why she knew about the system, but there was another question that completely pushed all those other questions away.

"Why did my grandmother say what she said in the end?"

The girl looked surprised since she clearly didn't expect this, but she still answered, "The Mirror of Regret is a Divine Artifact, it has the ability to show the trauma of a person to let them move past it. It's also said that it has the ability to communicate with the spirit of the dead…"

She purposefully stopped her words there, looking at Lin Fan's face and waiting for his reaction.

Communicate with the spirit of the dead…

Then that meant that the grandmother he had met was…

Lin Fan was silent for a bit as he sorted through his emotions, but afterwards, he looked up with a determined look and said, "Divine Artifact, does that mean…"

The girl suddenly raised her hand to cut him off as she said, "I already said it, you only get one question. Besides, we're running out of time now."

"Running out of time?" Lin Fan was confused.

The girl ignored this and continued, "Keep growing and getting stronger, eventually we'll meet again and you'll find more answers to the question you're looking for. First reach the Soul Realm at least."

Lin Fan still wanted to say something, but there was a burst of white light once again.
