Chapter 106 Everything Will Pass

It really is Xiao Xier.

The blue light around Xihe gradually dissipated, and his body turned into thousands of stars and gradually became illusory.

"Xiao Xi'er?"

Xiao Mingxuan wanted to pick up Xihe, who was covered in blood, but his hands passed through her body and he couldn't grab anything.

The beautiful eyes that should have been closed suddenly opened slowly. When their eyes met, Xiao Mingxuan saw surprise in the other's eyes.

"Kid, this is not the place for you. Go back."

The woman's smile was unusually gentle, a calmness that came from having experienced the vicissitudes of life and gone through many things.

"Are you...going to die?" Xiao Mingxuan's soul seemed to have left his body, and he continued the conversation almost subconsciously.

The blood beneath the woman's body became more and more, staining half the sky red. She slowly forced a smile, "Yes, I'm going to die."

There was no sorrow in her eyes, nor the terror that mortals face when facing death, but rather satisfaction and relief.

"Aren't you... afraid of death?"

The woman was having a hard time speaking. Her body was slowly dissipating. Perhaps because she was about to die, she miraculously felt more energetic. "Why should I fear death? I'm just a little afraid of pain."

Xiao Mingxuan suddenly remembered what the little girl said, "Xihe is not afraid of death, at most she is just a little afraid of pain."

Somewhat similar faces, but equally firm words.

Most of the woman's body had disappeared, turning into wisps of starlight, floating towards the battlefield behind him.

In just a moment, the sky suddenly brightened, the dead souls were called back, and the lifeless earth regained its original vitality.

Xiao Mingxuan suddenly remembered a sentence that National Master Beili once said.

What is God?

They are all for the salvation of all living beings.

The woman smiled and slowly closed her eyes. At the moment when her consciousness completely disappeared, a voice sounded in her ears.

"Xihe."

Who is it?

The woman transformed into a streak of light, hurtling towards the sun in the sky before exploding and scattering in all directions. Suddenly, a strange phenomenon appeared in the sky, stars fell, and the first rain of the spirit world began to fall.

Xiao Mingxuan couldn't feel the raindrops, but his heart felt empty.

"Little brother?"

Who? Who called him again?

"Little brother, wake up!"

Xiao Mingxuan's soul was torn apart by a force. When he opened his eyes again, the person in front of him turned into the tender face of a little girl.

Seeing that the man finally woke up, the little girl smiled brightly, "Little brother, you are finally awake."

Xihe fell first, followed by Xiao Mingxuan, but for some reason, she remained unconscious. She used her spiritual power to call her several times but there was no response, which almost made her anxious to death.

"Xiao Xier." Xiao Mingxuan's voice was a little hoarse, with a bit of nervousness after surviving a disaster.

"I'm here, what's wrong?" Xihe wiped the dust off Xiao Mingxuan's cheek, then stared at him with his chin propped up.

He suddenly remembered that the last time Xihe talked about her past, she only mentioned her death in passing and never went into detail.

He wanted to ask more, but for some reason the woman's relieved look appeared in his mind, and the words were swallowed back at his lips.

"Nothing."

"Really... are you okay?" Xihe looked at Xiao Mingxuan's pale face worriedly.

Xiao Mingxuan shook his head and said, "Don't worry, I'm really fine. I'm just a little tired."

"Indeed." Xihe did not doubt the truth of the other party's words. Their thrilling journey that day was indeed tiring. "It's okay, I know where the exit is. We can go back after we go out~"

"Is this... an underground palace?"

The structure here is different from the ones they have seen before. It seems to be built specially for someone. It is magnificent and majestic.

"Yes... and no." Xihe noticed from the moment she landed that this place was filled with spiritual energy, like the place of some immortal. However, this world was not dominated by the supernatural, which was rather strange. "This is not a real underground palace, but an illusion created by spiritual power. In other words, it looks real now, but it might disappear in a moment."

This place seems to be forcibly propped up under the ground. It is precisely because it is hidden underground that it has escaped the detection of the heavens.

"Are there any other people with spiritual powers besides you?" Xiao Mingxuan stood up, and the two of them walked towards the exit step by step.

"Logically speaking, there shouldn't be any." Today's events were more and more confusing. Now something that shouldn't have appeared had appeared, and the little girl was at a loss for words. "But there are exceptions. For example, I am an exception."

In fact, Xihe still doesn't know how she survived.

Sometimes she felt like a chess piece on a chessboard, being pushed forward with every move.

The two walked forward through a small door, and with every step they took, Xihe felt more uneasy.

Why does this decoration look so familiar?

When they walked to the main palace and looked at the huge human-shaped sculpture in the center, they were completely stunned.

Xiao Mingxuan had just seen the real person half a minute ago, and now he could easily recognize who this human-shaped statue was.

Xihe, or rather...the God Lord Xihe.

The little girl stared at the sculpture blankly, lost in thought for a moment. There was some nostalgia in her eyes, but also confusion.

Suddenly, he murmured, "Did I... forget something?"

She recognized the sculpture as her past life, but other things about it were so vague in her mind that if she tried to think about it, she would have a splitting headache.

Looking at the statue, she was enveloped by a familiar yet extremely unfamiliar emotion. She felt as if she was in a fog, unable to see or grasp anything.

"What did you forget?" Xiao Mingxuan only now realized that he knew too little about Xihe's previous life.

The little girl shook her head. "I don't know what I've forgotten, but I'm sure... a piece of my memory is missing."

Xihe had never thought about it in detail before, until she saw this sculpture today. Dust-covered memories were uncovered, and the festering wound hidden beneath the surface revealed its original appearance.

Xihe tried very hard to think, but it seemed as if her head was being pricked by needles with every step she took.

Xiao Mingxuan was a little frightened. He took the little girl into his arms and carefully rubbed her temples. "If you can't remember, don't think about it. That was your past life, not the present. It's all in the past, and everything will pass."

Xiao Mingxuan had a light grassy scent on him, and Xihe felt at ease every time she smelled it. "Little brother, those things will all pass, right?"

Perhaps even the little girl herself did not realize how obvious the panic in her words was.

She has always been like a little sun shining on everyone, and over time even Xiao Mingxuan forgot that she can also be fragile.

Xiao Mingxuan knew that the little girl was extremely insecure now. What was revealed in that illusion was just the tip of the iceberg. In the past days that he didn't know about and didn't exist, the little girl had borne too many heavy things alone.

She is everyone's support, but she is alone and helpless.

"Yes, everything will pass."

Xiao Mingxuan's words seemed to have some magic power. Xihe's wildly beating heart slowly stopped and slowly fell.
