71. Gong Yiling’s Anxiety
Holy crap!
If it weren’t for the fact that it would be too vulgar, she would have really wanted to curse.
Why? Because the buffs on this weapon were too terrifying.
A half-Saint Artifact. In this world, above spiritual artifacts were immortal artifacts, above immortal artifacts were saint artifacts, and above saint artifacts were divine artifacts. Although there was this classification, in fact, divine artifacts in this world only existed in legends, and they were legends from a very, very, very long time ago.
As for saint artifacts, although their grade was lower than divine artifacts, the problem was that these things were not something an ordinary person could forge. They were basically ancient things that gathered the spirit of heaven and earth and were only born in an instant.
Therefore, for such a peerless divine weapon to suddenly appear in her hands, although it was only floating above her palm and she hadn’t really held it in her palm, Gong Yiling also felt as if her whole person was about to float up.
The ten thousand horses galloping in her heart could almost be condensed into one word.
Awesome!
However, although she was happy, the figure of Bi Xiao in front of her was gradually becoming faint and blurry, as if he would completely disappear in the next second.
“You are…?”
“This thing represents everything I have. Now that it has become your power, you know what to do. My ten thousand strategies are exhausted, and I will no longer exist in this world.”
Bi Xiao smiled calmly. “But girl, for me, I actually want you to do me a favor.”
At this point, Bi Xiao specially used “I” instead of “I” as a self-appellation.
“Senior, please speak.”
“If a person’s three souls and seven spirits are not complete, they cannot enter reincarnation and can only be a lonely ghost. Yao’er has lost one soul and two spirits. She can only perish in this world. I have preserved her remaining soul for her, with the purpose of finding a chance of survival for her.”
“If there is a chance, I want you to find a divine object in the world that can help her enter reincarnation again. This is what I owe her, and it is also my helplessness.”
Hearing this, Gong Yiling looked at the soul crystal in her palm and nodded without much thought.
At least after understanding the whole story, her admiration for this woman arose spontaneously. At least she admitted that she would definitely not be able to make such a sacrifice for the sake of saving the world.
“I, Gong Yiling, will definitely not fail you, senior.” Gong Yiling said and bowed deeply to Bi Xiao. She waited for a few seconds but did not wait for Bi Xiao’s words.
Until Yan Chuyue gently patted her back. “Alright, he’s gone. Get up.”
Yes, and at the moment she gave a definite answer, this former king, with a final smile, had forever disappeared from this world.
“You said all this, is it really his actions from his heart?” For some reason, Gong Yiling suddenly blurted out this sentence.
Perhaps it was because she had just been adjusted by that Law of Heaven, and now Gong Yiling was really beginning to suspect whether some people had also been NPC-ized by the Law of Heaven.
Perhaps the original them were more unrestrained and arrogant, more arrogant. Perhaps what Bi Yao said was true. The real Bi Xiao in history was a complete villain, and the Bi Xiao they had just seen was just… an empty shell created by the Law of Heaven to help them?
“Why would you say that?” Yan Chuyue looked at her with some confusion. “Do you think all this is because of the system and the quest, and it can’t be considered real?”
Some things, she might not be able to tell Yan Chuyue now, so facing this question, Miss Gong could only nod silently.
“You’re not someone who cares about such things.” Yan Chuyue, hearing this, rubbed her head with a smile. This action was now almost a habit. “The past, whatever we hear from anyone now is just one side of the story. Bi Yao might have lied to us, and Bi Xiao might not have told the truth, but what does it matter?”
“So-called history is like this. We can’t see it or touch it, but we always want to make up a story that we can accept, or that we hope is like that.”
“Did Zhao Zilong really go in and out of Changbanpo seven times? Did a meteorite really fall from the sky in the Battle of Kunyang? Did the Mulan in the Mulan Ci really exist? These are the stories we give them. We hope that some things that can no longer be confirmed are as we imagine.”
“No matter what, the Heavenly Evil is an existence that must not be released. And this Bi Xiao dissipated in front of us, and poured everything he had left in the world into this sword. Even if this is really an act, who can prove whether it’s true or false? And what do you hope the truth is?”
She hoped…
She naturally hoped that this Bi Xiao was that peerless king, the first person who could generously admit his mistakes and also take on the responsibility of a king. And besides that…
Besides that… everything was meaningless. It was indeed so.
Thinking of this, Gong Yiling was naturally relieved a lot.
She raised her eyes and winked at Yan Chuyue with a smile. “I always feel that it’s an incredible thing to be educated by you.”
“Actually, I think so too.” Yan Chuyue smiled and said, “So now, what do you want to do?”
“Do you even have to ask?”
The moment Gong Yiling gripped the longsword, an extremely strong sword intent poured back into her body, easily breaking the restriction of the immeasurable meteorite iron on her.
At this point, her sword heart was clear, as if she had divine help. This posture made her not feel at all that she would lose. This really answered the sentence in the quest—no way, no way, is there really someone who can still lose this?
Although she always wanted to slap this thing’s face, she would just go with its wish.
“I feel like I can even go and fight the Heavenly Sin now.” She patted her chest confidently, and her flying chestnut-colored long hair, under the light of the sword, even showed a few golden colors.
“But before that, let’s solve what should be solved first.”
Next was—
“Sister Xuan!”
“Eh, huh?” Xuan Lingling was just watching on the side. With her comprehension, she couldn’t figure out what the situation was now.
Gong Yiling raised her sword and raised an eyebrow. “Are you interested in going down with me again and messing with that arrogant bitch?”
At the mention of that guy, Xuan Lingling immediately nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
For no other reason than that guy had just used a talisman formation to greet her. Their feud was now settled. As long as there was a chance to beat that guy, the very vengeful Xuan Lingling would not let it go.
Just like she would not let go of the person who destroyed her home.
