Chapter 906: Chapter 902 The day you died, I’ve been having nightmares every night,
"It’s so like him, really resembles." Li Qingtian whispered with her mouth slightly agape, unable to articulate her own emotions even now.
She had thought it was just someone acting recklessly under her brother’s name, but she hadn’t expected that upon seeing Tang Ye, the resemblance would be so striking—not a perfect match, but at least fifty percent similar!
Was it a coincidence?
Before this, she had fantasized that when she met this so-called Li Henian, his face would be completely unfamiliar. She had never imagined that she would see his face again, and despite how unbelievable it was, a glimmer of hope was kindled in her heart!
What if this Li Henian in front of her really was her brother?
Tang Ye struggled to keep himself clear-headed, not to get entangled with whether he was Tang Ye or Li Henian, because doing so would only lead to greater mental disarray. He only needed to remember that the memories in his mind were not his own.
But he couldn’t seem to escape the mental loops, much like a person’s soul traveling to ancient times and inheriting the memories of an ancient. But when you inherit someone’s memories, you also inherit their emotions, their loved ones, everything from their birth until now!
Inheriting memories is easy, especially those without emotions, but whose memories are devoid of emotions?
Every person is born a blank slate, with nothing on it, but as soon as one is born and comes into contact with the world, society’s dye vat reaches out to leave its mark with a brush, writing and painting on this blank slate. What a person eventually becomes entirely depends on society’s temperament—chaotic scribbles if it is in a foul mood, or a beautiful work of art when it is appeased.
In different environments, meeting different people, encountering different things, living different lives, everyone develops their own personality and way of doing things.
So when your soul transmigrates and inherits someone’s memories, you have to accept their personality, their emotions, and their loved ones, too.
That kind of impact is impossible to understand for those who haven’t personally experienced it, and those web novel protagonists who claim to transmigrate effortlessly without being affected by the predecessor’s memories are simply spouting nonsense. Let’s talk about a simple impact—after transmigrating, do you know if you’re still your former self or the transmigrator?
From a certain perspective, once you inherit your predecessor’s memories, you become them! They merge, and the influence is so profound that you might even turn into that person!
The emotions that arise from all the events they experienced are inherently existing, and once you integrate them into your own memories, you can no longer maintain your self. Even if the transmigrator has no emotions, once they merge with another’s memories and emotions, no matter how cold, indifferent, or anti-social they were, they will be overwhelmed by the emotions contained in the other’s memories and end up possessing feelings themselves.
After hearing Li Qingtian’s soft murmurs, Tang Ye was momentarily startled and asked somewhat helplessly, "Similar?"
Without responding to his question, Li Qingtian’s hands tirelessly caressed Tang Ye’s face, unwilling to miss even an inch.
As time slowly passed, Tang Ye saw a hint of tears shimmering in her eyes. Bit by bit, the gleam turned to mist, and then condensed into droplets that slid down her cheeks. The longing in her eyes didn’t make Tang Ye feel uncomfortable at all; on the contrary, it seemed only natural because, after all, they were family.
"So you didn’t die. Why did you lie to me? Do you know how I’ve lived all this time? Wuu..."
Suddenly, Li Qingtian let out several choked words at once and abruptly hugged herself. Tang Ye was completely bewildered by this sudden move, his body tensing up in response.
Watching Li Qingtian, who held him and sobbed, Tang Ye didn’t know what to say. His mind was completely blank. The murderous intent he still harbored toward her was dissipated by the rush of Li Henian’s memories. Li Henian was the last kin to Li Qingtian, but how important was Li Qingtian to Li Henian?
There was no need to guess or contemplate it, as could be seen by the fact that even after becoming a zombie, Li Henian would become her subordinate.
Moreover, Tang Ye felt an indelible affection in Li Henian’s memories, a kind of love that made one envious.
Tang Ye wanted to remind her that he wasn’t Li Henian, but the emotions in the memories made him subconsciously believe that he was Li Henian, he is me, I am him!
I am Li Henian with the memory of the Zombie King, and at the same time, I’m the Zombie King fused with Li Henian’s memories!
The two identities converge indistinguishably.
Li Henian is a transmigrator who, due to an accident, ended up in the body of a sapient zombie, and the Zombie King is a sapient zombie that has devoured the memories of another!
Their emotions blended into one, creating a new existence, he is Li Henian, and Li Henian is him.
The emotions in his memories kept telling him that the girl before him would not harm him, she is his kin!
They are the most important people to each other in this life. How could she possibly hurt him?
This is the answer from the subconscious, like a man who struggles in society, enduring endless workplace schemes, but when he returns home and sees his wife, children, or parents, he will know that no matter what they do, even if they don’t understand how hard he has worked outside, they are the people who least want to see him come to harm.
This is a certainty that comes with long-term coexistence!
And because of these feelings, Tang Ye found himself unable to speak, mainly because he didn’t know what to call the girl before him—someone both unfamiliar and extremely familiar.
Should he address her in the most distant tone with the cruelest words, or should he unabashedly call her by the endearments reserved for kin?
Tang Ye thought about it, but in the end, he chose to remain silent, just silently watching her.
"Why? Why, huh? You’re clearly still here, so why? Why didn’t you come to find me if you’re still alive? Do you know that I had nightmares all night on the day you died? Do you know all this? Why, huh? Bastard!"
After crying for a while, Li Qingtian suddenly changed her tone, filled with anger, and suddenly raised her head to look into Tang Ye’s eyes, full of sorrow.
She raised her hand and slapped Tang Ye’s face. Tang Ye was slightly dazed, not knowing how much force Li Qingtian used, but for Tang Ye, it was almost like a tickle, light and fluttering. It was also possible that as a Level 7 zombie, his skin was too thick to feel the attack from a Level 5 New Human.
After the slap, Li Qingtian hugged Tang Ye again, but soon let go, wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes. With remorse, she said, "I’m sorry, Henian, your sister shouldn’t be angry."
