Time goes back to one day ago, that is, after Pei Wende returned from the Gate of Hell.
Before the Nether Passage disappeared, Pei Wende's figure appeared on Longyou Lake again.
However, compared to how mysterious and domineering he was when he broke into the gate of hell, Pei Wende appeared quite embarrassed when he reappeared.
Obviously he didn't get wet in the heavy rain before, but now he appears in the middle of the lake all wet...
What's even weirder is that the water droplets on Pei Wende's body are obviously different from normal rain. Every drop falling on Longyou Lake can reflect the residual scene of the underworld.
It looks like it leads directly to the underworld, full of weirdness and contradictions that are inconsistent with the world of the sun.
"Amitabha!"
Slowly opening his eyes, Pei Wende, as if he had just woken up from a dream, suddenly recited a Buddha's name in a low voice.
The next second, the glazed Buddha light radiated from the Buddha ring behind his head to the entire Longyou Lake, evaporating and annihilating all the mountains and rivers that did not belong to the Yang world.
Not only that, the strange phenomena in the sky, the raging wind, and the continuous rainstorm were all driven away by the Buddha's light at this moment.
The world seemed to be redrawn at this moment, returning to its previous state of clear sky and clear air in the blink of an eye.
Except for the two green and white snakes in the middle of the lake, and the mountain peak that was mostly destroyed by the white snake, everything seemed to be back to the time when nothing happened.
"Is it all over?"
Xiao Qing, who quietly appeared in the rippling lake water under Pei Wende, had returned to the form of a green-scaled snake, asked.
Opposite Xiaoqing and Pei Wende, the dying white snake was floating on the water at the moment, with horrifying huge wounds all over its body.
Obviously, after a fight with Xiao Qing and having the black blood forcibly drained from his body by Pei Wende, White Snake is now at a point where its life is hanging by a thread.
It barely regained consciousness and couldn't even control its own body. Most of the community sank to the bottom of the lake, leaving only a huge head barely floating on the water.
"hiss!"
Seemingly noticing Pei Wende's eyes, the immobile White Snake tried its best to show its ferocious side, but in the end, its weakness was more completely exposed.
"You didn't kill it?"
Seeing this, Pei Wende, who was familiar with Xiao Qing's character, spoke in surprise.
When he forcibly purified the black blood in the white snake's body, Pei Wende was already ready for Xiaoqing to kill the white snake.
After all, Xiao Qing's character has always been to eradicate the root causes without leaving any possibility for herself to fall into crisis.
Faced with the culprit who had been fighting with her for a long time and even almost strangled him at one point, Xiao Qing's normal approach would have been to kill him immediately.
So when he noticed that White Snake was not dead, Pei Wende almost thought that Xiao Qing had changed his gender.
"She is no longer a threat, and you don't want me to kill innocent people indiscriminately, do you?"
Xiaoqing, who knew Pei Wende's character well, raised his upper body, but his eyes stayed on the huge white snake for a long time.
Regarding Xiaoqing's true intentions, she definitely wants to eradicate the roots.
This white snake may not be following the orthodox path of cultivation, but her fighting ability is far beyond that of a normal practitioner.
Even a big monster like Xiao Qing, who is extremely good at fighting and saving lives, is powerless when facing the white snake, let alone those monsters who are not very good at fighting.
However, what Xiao Qing knows better is that this white snake is not murderous in nature.
After Pei Wende purified the black blood of resentment in his body, if White Snake continued to strangle with all his strength, he would never win so easily, even if he died together with himself.
But White Snake didn't do this. Instead, he took the initiative to release his strangulation and showed a little apology to Xiao Qing.
From this point of view alone, before being affected by the resentment of the real dragon, White Snake must have been one of those gentle-tempered monsters who could hide in a mountain den and not appear in the world for hundreds of years.
"When did you become so obedient?"
Pei Wende rolled his eyes helplessly. He didn't think Xiao Qing would be merciful, just because he didn't want her to kill innocent people indiscriminately.
In fact, let alone Xiaoqing, even Pei Wende himself didn't know how he should face this white snake.
Under normal circumstances, Pei Wende does not have the idea of killing innocent people indiscriminately, especially under the premise that White Snake itself is also a victim.
This may be the most incompatible point between Pei Wende and this era.
He has no deep-rooted prejudices about the so-called difference between men and monsters.
Whether they are humans or demons, even those evil spirits who died wrongfully are all "lives" in Pei Wende's eyes.
But the current white snake is different. She is most likely "Bai Suzhen".
After all, Pei Wende is not a saint. He has his own preferences for joy and anger, and he also has things he is afraid of.
Faced with this white snake that might be his "old enemy" in the future, Pei Wende inevitably had hesitation even if he kept trying to convince himself to ignore the other person's identity.
No matter which version of "The Legend of White Snake" is used, the grudge between Fahai and Bai Suzhen can be traced back to the previous life.
Although Pei Wende is not afraid of the future threat of the White Snake, he cannot resist the fact that there is Xiao Qing next to him now. She is most likely the green snake next to Bai Suzhen.
Under this premise, whether he eventually dies and is reincarnated, or whether he and Xiaoqing part ways midway, these are not outcomes that Pei Wende can accept now.
Theoretically speaking, it is undoubtedly the most correct choice to kill the White Snake now and completely prevent what will happen in the future.
However, looking at the white snake opposite who kept trying to show "I'm fierce", Pei Wende couldn't go against his true intention after all.
[Forget it, killing a 'victim' affected by resentment for a future that I don't know is true or false is really not something I can do. 】
Pei Wende knew that his current decision was probably a wrong choice, but he finally decided to let the white snake go.
Let's talk about the future in the future. Pei Wende is confident that he can escape his destined fate - even if he is really the legendary Fahai.
"I know you are also a victim of this incident..."
"I even know that you only had good intentions at first and wanted to help the people here to prevent the spread of resentment..."
After making a decision in his heart, Pei Wende suddenly opened his palm, revealing a golden lotus.
In that lotus, a golden lightning arc was flashing, but it seemed to be stuck in eternal stagnation, being permanently imprisoned in it.
"But you finally went berserk and destroyed the dam in Nandu, causing Runzhou to have no harvest for two years."
"The merits and demerits cannot be offset. This 'essence' is the 'gift' left to you by Dragon Girl Bodhisattva, and it is also the 'yoke' I give you."
