Chapter 209 Part of the Truth
Fan Wujiu looked at her deeply and said, "Until the battle in which you died."
Xiaobai's heart was shocked, and several fragmented images flashed through his mind: a burning sky, broken mountains and rivers, and a hand wearing a bronze ring.
"Wait!" Xiao Bai suddenly remembered something, "The bronze token you showed Bai Yan!" She grabbed Fan Wujiu's wrist fiercely, "The word 'Tian Lu' on it, and the bronze ring in my memory."
A hint of surprise flashed across Fan Wujiu's eyes, but then he regained his composure: "Your memory is slowly recovering." He turned his wrist, and a bronze ring appeared out of thin air on his index finger. The same words "Tianlu" were engraved on the ring face as on the token.
"This is the token of the master of the system." Fan Wujiu explained, "Each world has a different form. Here it is a token, and in the prehistoric Pangu world it is a ring."
Xiaobai let go of his hand, his thoughts in a mess.
She vaguely felt that Fan Wujiu had some connection with her past, but she couldn't tell what it was.
"You haven't answered me yet," Xiaobai forced himself to return to the present, "Why are you helping me?"
Fan Wujiu stood up, his black robe swaying gently in the breeze: "Because the evil side of the power of chaos, 'Ai Ye', is eroding multiple worlds, including the prehistoric Pangu world. What she wants is to unify them all.
Moreover, she has a great ability to bewitch people. This will upset the balance and then everything will cease to exist.
The power of evil thoughts is stronger than good thoughts because desire is endless.
That's why you are still not as powerful as her.
And you are the only one who can repair the flaws in the Heavenly Dao of the Primordial Pangu Realm."
Xiao Bai stood up as well, his doubts growing even deeper: "I'm just the reincarnation of an old god whose power has collapsed. What can I do?"
Fan Wujiu did not answer directly, but asked: "Have you discovered that the food you eat in this world will resonate with the World Tree in your Dantian?"
Xiaobai was shocked. She did notice this phenomenon.
"Because this world also has the power of chaos." Fan Wujiu continued, "But it is not the power that is bound by the Heavenly Dao like the prehistoric Pangu Realm. There is no concept of 'Heaven' here, no level suppression, all races can coexist peacefully, and the speed of cultivation is much faster than in a world bound by the Heavenly Dao."
Xiaobai seemed to be thinking: "So it's the Tianyao mark."
"It is a balancing mechanism that I created using the power of chaos."
Fan Wujiu nodded, "Restrict the strong from bullying the weak at will, so that the five tribes can develop together."
He suddenly reached out and touched Xiaobai's forehead, and a ray of golden light flowed into her body. Xiaobai instinctively wanted to dodge, but found that the golden light perfectly integrated with the divine power in her body, and the Tree of Enlightenment suddenly glowed with vitality.
"You see," Fan Wujiu retracted his hand, "our powers are essentially the same."
Xiao Bai looked inward at her Dantian and was shocked to find that the speed at which her divine power was dissipating had significantly slowed down. She looked up at Fan Wujiu and asked, "Only half of the Pure Heaven Technique?"
Fan Wujiu smiled appreciatively: "Smart. The remaining half will be given to you after you complete my conditions."
"Go to the demon world and the monster world?" Xiaobai guessed.
"That's right." Fan Wujiu nodded, "The flower of the demon world only blooms in the real demon world abyss, and the elf fruit needs to be given voluntarily by the elves." He looked at Xiaobai meaningfully, "This journey will not be easy."
Xiao Bai pondered for a moment, then suddenly asked, "You said before that you knew my past life. What is our relationship?"
Fan Wujiu's expression became complicated. He turned and looked into the distance: "The answer to this question will naturally become clear when you regain all your memories."
Xiaobai keenly sensed that Fan Wujiu was hiding something, but she knew it was useless to ask any further questions now.
"Okay, I agree to your terms." Xiaobai made the decision, "But you have to promise not to conceal any information related to the restoration of the Heavenly Dao."
Fan Wujiu turned around and nodded solemnly: "I promise in the name of the master of the system." He stretched out his little finger, "Pin it?"
This childish action made Xiao Bai stunned, and then she laughed. She stretched out her little finger and hooked it with Fan Wujiu. A golden light flowed between their fingertips, forming a miniature contract formation.
"The contract is established." Fan Wujiu said with a smile, "We will gather at the entrance of the Demon Realm at noon tomorrow."
Xiaobai nodded in agreement, and suddenly remembered something: "What about Taohua? That girl will definitely want to come with us."
Fan Wujiu blinked mysteriously: "Don't worry, I have arranged for her to attend the coming-of-age ceremony of the Sky Fox Clan. She won't be back for at least a month."
Xiaobai heaved a sigh of relief, but at the same time felt a little guilty. Taohua trusted her so much, but she wanted to leave quietly...
"Don't think too much." Fan Wujiu seemed to see through her thoughts, "When everything is over, you can explain it to her."
As the sun sets, the surface of the Jingling Spring is dyed with a layer of gold.
Fan Wujiu's figure appeared particularly tall in the afterglow. Xiaobai looked at his profile and felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity in his heart.
"Fan Wujiu," Xiaobai asked softly, "Why did you leave the Honghuang Pangu Realm? If you were there, maybe that war would have happened."
Fan Wujiu's body was visibly stiff for a moment. He lowered his head, with an imperceptible guilt in his voice: "The system has assigned an urgent task, I must leave." He raised his head, his golden eyes flashing with determination, "But this time, I will accompany you to the end."
Xiao Bai didn't know why he believed his promise. The two stood silently beside the Jingling Spring, each with their own thoughts, but with a strange tacit understanding.
As night fell, stars sprinkled on the spring. Fan Wujiu suddenly said, "It's getting late. You should go back and get ready. The demon world is not a friendly place."
Xiaobai nodded and turned to leave. After walking a few steps, she suddenly turned back and said, "Fan Wujiu, thank you."
Fan Wujiu was stunned for a moment, then he smiled sincerely: "You're welcome, Xiaobai."
On the way back to the inn, Xiaobai repeatedly thought about the information he had obtained today.
The master of the system, the power of chaos, and the incompleteness of the way of heaven.
Everything is entangled with her vague memories of her past life. What she cares most about is Fan Wujiu's unfinished words - what was their relationship in their past life?
Back in the room, Xiaobai took out the "Jingtian Jue" and began to practice. As the technique was running, she felt her soul was clearer than ever before, as if a dusty pearl was being wiped clean bit by bit.
Outside the window, a bright moon was hanging high in the sky. What Xiaobai didn't know was that under the same bright moon, Fan Wujiu was standing on the top of Mount Buzhou, playing with the bronze ring in his hand, looking towards the direction of the demon world with complicated eyes.
“This time, I won’t let you face it alone, Xiaobai.” In the night breeze, Fan Wujiu’s whisper dissipated with the wind.
