The sky above Qinglian Town still conveys a discordant interweaving of colors. Part of the sky dimmed, deepening into the night, exuding a blue that was unique to twilight. Another part of the genius has just ushered in dusk, and the opposite warm tones are scattered in fragments. In the end, the two colors condensed into the light on the ground, showing a melancholic lavender.
Raising his face, facing this unusual halo, Gao Yuejun only had a faint look of relief on his face.
"Needless to say, this is the moment of judgment - Hongxuan Changye."
Faced with that adult's order, Lord Xueyue remained indifferent.
Several people looked at her. At some point, she held a bone-white cigarette rod in her hand and blew out a cloud of white smoke contemptuously and calmly, like the mist exhaled in winter. She didn't look at anyone, she just turned the cigarette rod twice.
"If I say, why don't I?"
As soon as these words were spoken, black flocks of birds suddenly flew from all directions. They landed very close to several people. Rocks, branches, high platforms...the more daring ones landed on the eaves of the area where they were standing. These crows have lost their previous fear, but their eyes are also pure white, just like the three impermanences who are temporarily under control. The strong sense of oppression made Xie Zhe and Ling Hu also feel very uncomfortable.
"Do you want to threaten me? Drive me out of the world and drive me back to hell? Or simply extinguish me and cut off my connection to draw demonic power from hell? Now that I have a human heart, what should you ask me to do? Those who don't What about things that require a moment of heart? To be honest, it’s very noisy, beating and beating without stopping for a moment. It’s amazing. It’s this sound that reminds me repeatedly that I’m alive and that I’m alive in this world of mortals. Go up. I have seen enough and done enough. If you want to remove me from the Underworld, I will never ask for it. Don't worry about the means, just do whatever you want."
"You don't have to be like this..."
Gao Yuejun picked up the unnoticed red pearl on the ground and stood on the edge of the rooftop with a calm face, as peaceful as if he was welcoming his emergence.
"I will always remember your help over the years. Although I took advantage of you at the last moment, I am really sorry. Please forgive me. For this reason, I may have to die to apologize."
"You should know that these are just nice words, right?" Kuchtsuki-kun sneered, "Don't try to prevaricate me."
Cang Yu lowered his voice, as if he was just telling Xie Zhe and Ling Huan: "The matter has come to this, and there is no way to save it..."
"This is a heinous crime, and even if you die, you will not be able to escape the blame. However, as cunning as you are, you have already prepared a perfect plan. Even if you consume your body and mind to such an extent, you can escape the punishment."
"Haha, yes... I will embrace my own soul."
Gaoyue-kun admitted easily, with a different kind of arrogance in his eyes. Before anyone could react, she turned around to face a few people, raised her arms, and her slightly backward body seemed to fall down at any time. Starting from the raised fingertips, light overflowed, and her body turned into countless blue butterflies and dissipated. The red pearl quickly rolled to the ground, extinguishing the red light that had just appeared. Until she completely turned into a butterfly and collapsed, as light as a dream, as cold as a dream, and as far away as a dream.
Lord Xueyue had a weird illusion. He actually felt that the nameless person was familiar. But he suddenly realized that when Satsuki-kun disappeared, something was indeed leaning back and falling from the edge at the same time. Immediately afterwards, there was a muffled sound from the ground. Not heavy, but it happens. She stepped forward immediately, and Ruan Xiang ran away desperately. But at that moment, Kanna-kun quickly hugged her and turned his back, covering her eyes regardless of her struggle.
There is something that looks like a cocoon or a cicada's slough, which separates from Satsuki-kun's soul and falls. They knew exactly what it was. The crows nearby swarmed in, scrambling to grab whatever landed on the ground. Lord Xueyue could only look down and see a crowded mass of black.
She took a deep breath from the cigarette and slowly exhaled the pale mist. The crows dispersed as if they smelled an ominous smell. But it was still a step too late, and all that was left on the ground was a dark puddle of water. If it's not even red, then it's not blood. Lord Xueyue also knew very well that his body, which had been riddled with poison and riddled with sores, would never be able to shed a single drop of blood.
But she has liberated that aloof soul.
I raised my head and caught the afterimage of a blue butterfly.
Not here. The purple sky light became a bit darker, gradually converging towards the pure night sky. Only darkness is single, harmonious and eternal.
People dare not say a word, and there is no need to say a word.
The rolling red pearl stopped at Xie Zhe's feet. It no longer emitted that dark, alluring red light, but Xie Zhe still pulled Ling Quan and took a step back, as if it were a piece of red-hot lava.
"From now on, the seven magical artifacts will be controlled by humans for generations, and Huangquan Twelve shall not keep them without authorization. According to the order, Zou Wuchang will carry the designated magical artifact and hand it over to a human being recognized by him. The chosen one will be awarded the title of guardian. Subsequent inheritance, abandonment, loss, seizure, etc., and all ownership transfers are the responsibility of humans themselves and have nothing to do with you. When their identity is disclosed and ownership is announced, their identity will be recognized and the origin will not be investigated. Looking for During the guardianship period, any two impermanent people holding the magic weapon are not allowed to come into contact; after the magic weapon leaves their hands, no one is allowed to obtain the magic weapon again through gifts, plunders, trades, leases, fraud, etc. and hold or use it for a long time. .”
"Do you know? If I say I only have contempt for human beings, that's not necessarily true." Lord Xueyue suddenly turned to Xie Zhe and Ling Huan and said seriously, "For example, I can think of some interesting words in human culture right now. For example, what When you catch the fish, you forget the sheng, and when the bird is gone, its bow is hidden.”
Her resentment is not without reason. Although their relationship with Lord Kotsutsuki had been incompatible with each other before, but now thinking from her perspective, it was natural for them to think so.
"Why?" Kanna-kun asked, "Why leave it to humans? Human self-control should never be overestimated."
"In the hands of the six paths of impermanence, magic weapons will only bring misfortune. In the hands of Qinghe Canhua, the Chizhen Pearl catalyzed her spiritual will and made her determined to die. Similarly, what did Yu Yumingxu do in front of you? It is also visible to all. What happened when Yin and Yang went to the stream, let alone go into detail. There are too many more details."
"Now I know that the source of all these tragedies is precisely because of Huangquan Twelve's identity. As a carrier, medium, and relay for heaven to descend from the gods, magical instruments have the characteristics of connecting the six paths. And walking Impermanence is neither the living, nor the dead, nor ghosts and gods, but it walks in the six paths and comes and goes among humans with the same characteristics."
"This will trigger a silent resonance, and no one can predict the direction in which fate will develop. The fate and the flow of time beyond the realm of desire are things that we cannot interfere with - anything that shakes the stability of the six paths Its existence must be difficult to control. Its existence difficult to control must be extremely dangerous."
"Human beings are greedy and have no self-control. But these natures are part of life. If one day, the guardians of the seven magic weapons gather together, they may not make choices they shouldn't make. There will be endless disputes. As long as everyone If everyone wants to get a magic weapon, then no one can get a magic weapon. In human hands, the power of magic weapons will be restricted by limited spiritual power, and as time goes by, it will become more and more difficult to exert their true power. Sometimes, these things are In human hands, there are even unexpected benefits.”
"Master Xie doesn't really think that it's luck that he wasn't dragged into hell or reduced to a state of despair, right?"
Such indifferent and harsh words reminded Xie Zhe of something. He rummaged around in his body in a panic, and finally found something unexpected on the inside of his clothes - the gold clam bracelet was actually on his body.
"At that time...Mu Yue-kun gave it to us." Xie Zhe was frightened for a while, and the hand holding the clam trembled.
"So that's it," Lord Kuoyue said quietly, "it's this thing that has fixed your soul."
Kanna-kun raised his eyebrows slightly, and he didn't know whether he was mocking or telling the truth: "I assume you always remember it."
There were actually four magic weapons appearing in one place at the same time. Xie Zhe's mind was spinning rapidly: the platinum silver incense burner and blue amber were probably still under the care of Master Bai Skeleton, and the glass heart was definitely in the hands of Miss Chenxing. If this gentleman wants to redo the distribution, he must recycle it. But what will happen to the incense burner that belongs to Shi Wuqi? The Lord of Hundred Skeletons is a monster after all. But maybe it won't be his turn to worry anymore.
Lord Xueyue took two steps forward and paced in front of the three people controlled by Yama Demon. She said in an intriguing tone:
"There's no need to be so secretive. I've always been straightforward, and you know that. All the reasons you gave before seem to have deliberately omitted the most important part. 'Existences that are difficult to control must be extremely dangerous, you said so. ?The most important thing, no one has forgotten it, right? The blue amber was destroyed, depriving Liangqiu Muwan of Huangquan December's identity, causing her to permanently give up her life under the so-called free will decision. Just to find it The name is out of your control. And the impact of the destruction of the magic weapon is beyond your control - because the magic weapon is not entirely human or humane."
It was eerily quiet, and no one dared to say a word. The sky fell completely into darkness, and night dominated the earth. The figures of the crows were completely hidden in the darkness, but the figure of Lord Xuanyue was like a ball of fire.
"Until now, I still don't understand, why? Why did she resolutely die instead of choosing to live? Don't humans often say that as long as you live, there is hope? I don't understand, even if I have a human heart, I don't understand - it's nothing more than It’s just the pain of ignorance brought about by not understanding! Can any of you tell me the answer? No... no need to say it, even if you tell me, I may not understand it, and I may not want to hear it. Maybe not in time, maybe never It won't be the time...but I will live. I will continue to live, live with peace of mind, live with justice, and live carefree. With this heart, I will live until I can find the answer on my own, and live until even I want something. The day you die!"
In the darkness, there was a glimmer of light. It exudes soft blue light, comes gracefully, and lingers around Lord Xueyue. She stretched out her hand, and the weak light butterfly fell on her hand. She suddenly remembered the shadows of many people, but the emotion that followed was only strong numbness. Numbness is also a kind of emotion, and she had no right to be numb before.
She held up her hands and tried to give this powerless butterfly a new lease of life as before. But she failed, for no reason. The small light was completely extinguished in her hands, and could no longer shine or fly. So something died completely.
What is that person fighting against? To this day, I still can't understand it.
