Chapter 424, A New Punishment

Moreover, the Demon King feared that the Golden Lion could reincarnate, and the Rabbit Demon didn't give up. They scattered the Golden Lion's soul in an attempt to make him disappear completely. The Rabbit Demon arrived and collected the Golden Lion's soul.
Then she found the boundary stone that suppressed both worlds. The rabbit demon used all her cultivation to hit the boundary stone, and finally at the cost of her broken demon pill and damaged soul, a small corner of the boundary stone was knocked off. The rabbit demon used all her cultivation to refine it and named it the Fortune Stone, hoping it would bring good luck to the Golden Lion.
The Rabbit Demon put the soul of the Golden Lion into a blessed stone to ensure that it would not be extinguished and gradually restored. Then, the Rabbit Demon brought the blessed stone to the top of the snow mountain and put it inside a snow lotus that had a foundation of more than three thousand years but had not yet gained spiritual wisdom.
做完这一切，兔妖死去，带着残破的灵魂投胎。
福石和镇界石上面都残留着兔妖的精血，在精血的作用下，雪莲很快成妖，与福石内的灵魂融合，莫奈的灵魂苏醒，因为受伤，记忆不全，他只以为自己是一朵雪莲化形，莫奈潜心修炼，地藏跑过来给了他不少好东西，很快就飞升成仙，因为福石和雪莲的原因直接成为了仙君。
也是在成仙后，灵魂得到了修补，他恢复了记忆，才知道兔妖为了他做了什么。接着莫奈找到了兔妖的转世，也就是何念念，与其相爱。哪知，何念念因为当年撞了镇界石，灵魂受损，每一界的寿命都不长，当初那块福石已经与他融合没办法取出来，于是莫奈将两界那块缺了一角的镇界石全部取了过来，练成福石戴在她身上。
There have only been two great chaos events, in which Monet was punished and He Nian Nian cut off their emotional ties.
During this time, he merged with He Nian Nian's soul, took control of the reincarnation ring, and awakened the sealed reincarnation path, which allowed him to remember everything.
Includes oneself as the master of the reincarnation world in which He Niannian exists, as well as the past with He Niannian.
It's not that He Niannian is lucky to have met oneself, but that oneself is lucky to have met her, a woman who is not afraid of life and death for oneself.
地藏不知道莫奈的心里活动，“只是什么？莫奈，我一直不明白一件事，既然你都想起来了，我想听你说说。”
“什么事？”莫奈收回思绪，看了他一眼。
“轮回界的那个你，既然什么都记得了，为什么还选择保留莲花体，在轮回界，灵魂体对你更有利吧。”
地藏说的是在现实世界中，那个轮回界的主宰莫奈，他自从情根长出来，恢复了记忆，就知道了一切始末，为什么没有放弃莲花体，他去过轮回界，自是知道灵魂体在轮回界才是最自然的状态，对他最有利。
莫奈微扯了一下嘴角，抬手摸了摸眉心，那里是一朵冰莲印记，
“这是念念为我选的。”他语音轻柔，地藏打了个哆嗦，明显接受不了，“不是吧，就为了这个？”
He nodded seriously, just for this.
"Buddy, as the master of the reincarnation world, at that time, as long as you enter the reincarnation, your soul will be repaired and put into the blessing stone and snow lotus for cultivation, which is unnecessary." Ksitigarbha reminded him that even if his soul was damaged or really dispersed, it would be okay for Mo Nai because he had comprehended the way of reincarnation, and there was no such thing as life and death.
"When you have someone you deeply love, you'll understand," Monet didn't plan to say much more to him. Some things can't be explained.
When Hé Nìan Nìan woke up, it was already the next day and the dormitory was filled with melodious and soothing music.
```html“Awake?” The person who had been playing the piano nearby appeared at the bedside in an instant, looking down at her from a higher position.
Seeing Monet, recalling the things in the cycle space, Hé Niàn Niàn shyly lowered her head.```
Monet smirked and sat down on the bed, reaching out to stroke her cheek. "Do you want me to stay and lie down with you for a while?"
"No, it's fine." He NianNian sat up in surprise and made to get out of bed.
Monet pulled her into his arms, his warm breath spraying onto her delicate neck. "Why are you running? I can't eat you," he said in a low, slightly threatening voice.
Hearing Monet's words, Heneinne shrank her neck a little, thinking to herself that she's afraid of being eaten by him. But she dare not say that, as she felt that the current Monet was not related to the noble and cold celestial who didn't touch the mortal world.
"I want to go out for a walk, Anai, will you take me for a stroll?" It's just that I can't stay in bed.
Monet looked at her deeply and nodded. The time is still long, no need to rush, it wouldn't be good if she gets scared.
何念念醒来后就没见到地藏，要不然一定要质问他，什么控制仙力的酒，忽悠人都不带打草稿的，张嘴就来，太坏了。
They finished exploring the fairy palace and ventured to other continents, losing track of time for two weeks. Suddenly, Ksitigarbha appeared with both good and bad news.
好消息就是何念念的身体已经找回来了，附身的人是暗恋无莫仙君的一名金仙，策划者是东方天帝的一名妃子，据对方说是为了给儿子报仇，也是仙帝的第九子。
The other party originally planned to capture the soul of He Nian Nian and give it to her son, but her soul disappeared before they could execute the plan.
This matter needs to be handled by Monet.
坏消息就是，东方天帝已经得知莫奈长出了情根，那么对他的惩罚就算失效了，新的惩罚开始，直到赤阳极幽两界战乱结束，惩罚才会停止。
"I reckon the Heavenly Emperor wants to make a trade with you: punishment for the return of his concubine," guessed Ksitigarbha.
"Ha, impossible," sneered Mona, her red eyes flashing with a murderous glint. She was still plotting revenge and it was not something that could be easily settled.
I can help with that. Here's the translation of the given text into English while preserving the original HTML tags:```html

“True, Nian Nian has already reached the level of an Immortal Lord, so there's no need to worry about them trying anything against her. If you don't voluntarily accept this punishment, there's really nothing anyone can do to you.”

```
Monet's ability is not just talk. He is already at the highest level and, coupled with his understanding of the cycle of reincarnation, he is not afraid of life and death. He can pick anyone in the three realms and no one is his opponent.
除非他们联手，可是仙界的战乱才平息了不久，没人愿意开战。
“惩罚我自是要担，我不会让念念来承担因果，只是什么惩罚我说了算，还有，那头蠢狮子还没带人飞升吗？”
“快了吧，我有时间过去瞅瞅，话说，当初要不是何念念让你手下留情，也不会有人帮你收拾烂摊子。”地藏所指的是，当初在轮回界差点被莫奈杀了的璐米西娜，还有被璐米西娜召唤过去的冥炎狮。
地藏给他们开了个小挂，让她投胎去了极幽下属的小世界，现在二人在小世界混的风生水起，马上就要到达最高修为飞升仙界了，而那个小世界对应的是仙界附属的大世界-极幽界。
In the immortal realm, there are different continents and sects, as well as numerous subsidiary worlds that are connected to the immortal realm. These include places like Chi Yang Ji You, two demon realms, and a ghost realm, all of which are attached to the immortal realm as subsidiary worlds.
In the affiliated Great World, the ruler of a realm has a cultivation level similar to that of a golden immortal in the immortal world. As for the immortals, they can strive to cultivate and there are still three vacancies, no, it should be two now. He NianNian became an immortal ruler due to the Town Boundary Stone, occupying one of the positions.
不是每一个附属世界都有镇界石，只有那种两个世界正好是极端对立的，才会放置镇界石。
而镇界石是最开始创立万千世界的创世神炼制的，可见镇界石是多么的宝贵，不是没人打镇界石的主意，而是镇界石不是谁都能动得了的。
The boundary stone belongs to the elements of the heaven and earth. If it weren't for He Nian Nian's lucky discovery of a small piece and leaving her own blood on it, there wouldn't have been any mention of Mo Nan being able to retrieve the boundary stone later on.
The reason for its success is that over thousands of years, the blood that has remained on it has been absorbed by the boundary stone. The same blood is also present in the corner that Monet has fused, and his high cultivation level and willingness to bear karma for his loved one allowed him to refine the boundary stone and present it to He Nian Nian.
Some things are accidentally irreplaceable.
As for He NianNian, knowing that Monet will still be punished, she worries and holds his arm, "Why is there still talk of repeated punishment?"
"Because what Monet did is not a small matter. Speaking of which, this punishment is really not heavy enough." Jizo hopes that He Nian Nian can understand that the loss of the boundary stone is truly a disaster for both worlds.
"After the incident, we have been trying to remedy the situation. You saved Lumicena back then, and I will guide her to end the war between the two worlds. Then, the punishment will stop."
"Can't we return the boundary stone? There are more people who need it than me." She is not a heartless person. She didn't know how serious it was before and she doesn't have the ability to deal with it.
As long as we return the item, there will be peace between the two worlds and Monet won't have to face punishment. Isn't that great?
"Nian Nian, don't worry, I'm here for everything." Monet touched her head. He was originally fearless of life and death, or else he wouldn't have comprehended the cycle path. However, in order to protect the purity and beauty in Nian Nian's heart, he was willing to do things he didn't like and change his way of doing things.
"Anna, I am also very selfish, but I don't want you to be punished again. Let's return the town boundary stone." He Nian Nian held his arm, gazing at him earnestly and anxiously with her charming peach blossom eyes, brimming with tears.
莫奈不语，地藏不得不替他解释。
“念念，镇界石已经与你的灵魂和轮回戒融为一体，强行取出来放回去，会伤了你的灵魂。之前我不是说了吗？两界的事，我跟莫奈已经找到了解决的办法，你不用担心。”
何念念抿了抿嘴，睫羽微垂，怎么会不担心呢？莫奈又要面临惩罚，她做不到无动于衷，不管是天雷，还是情根，她都不想让他面对。
