They all knew who the owner of the exquisite heart was.
If the people from the God Realm come down again, without Long Qianling, can Bai Qingnian and the others still protect them?
But even if they can't protect her, they have to! This is the person Long Qianling cares about most. Even if she's not here, they will protect the person she cares about in her place!
Long Qianling has been dead for three years, and Bai Qingnian has also been in a coma for three years.
I wonder when he will wake up, or if he will never wake up again...
“Yun Li…” Ming Yuyin hesitated, wanting to say something but stopping herself.
Yun Li turned to look at her and asked, "What's wrong?"
Ming Yuyin stared at him for a long time before finally speaking, "Go back to the God Realm, go home."
Yun Li frowned. "You're kicking me out?"
"No, no, it's just that if you stay here, you might never be able to go back."
Staying here to help them would be treason, and he would never be able to go home again. She didn't want to see him unable to return home...
Yun Li reached out and patted her arm, revealing a faint smile: "Then we won't go back. Staying here is fine too!" He withdrew his hand.
Ming Yuyin was taken aback, then smiled.
“In that case, we should be prepared,” Bai Changjun said.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
After discussing things in the main hall for a while, everyone went about their own business.
Meanwhile, Bai Qingnian had already walked out of the inner hall, stood under the eaves, and looked up at the dazzling sun.
Is it...summer? How long has he been unconscious?
"Year after year!"
Zhiyan had just walked in from outside when she saw Bai Qingnian standing under the eaves. Overjoyed, she ran over and hugged him tightly.
“My poor little one, you’ve finally woken up…”
“Father…” Bai Qingnian hugged him back with her thin hands, her voice hoarse.
"Father is here, Father is here..." Zhiyan couldn't help but tear up, and it took her a lot of effort to hold back her tears.
"How long have I been unconscious?" Bai Qingnian gently pushed him away and asked.
Zhiyan raised her hand to wipe away her tears. "Three years, you were in a coma for three whole years! It scared your father to death, do you know that?"
boom--
These two words exploded in Bai Qingnian's mind like a thunderbolt.
Three years...
"What about the Great Black Dragon? Has the Great Black Dragon returned? Where is she now?"
Bai Qingnian, his voice hoarse, grabbed Zhiyan's arm anxiously and asked.
Zhiyan looked at him, her voice choked with emotion, "Niannian...she died three years ago, how could she come back..."
“So… it wasn’t a dream, it was all real…” Bai Qingnian’s hand, which was holding his arm, gradually slipped away, and tears instantly welled up in her eyes.
The great black dragon... is really dead!?
He doesn't believe it!
The familiar pain surged into his heart, so intense that Bai Qingnian almost fainted again, but he managed to endure it.
No, he can't remain unconscious any longer; he still needs to find the Great Black Dragon!
He will definitely find her!
“Nian Nian…” Zhi Yan looked at her beloved child, whose face was full of pain, and felt extremely heartbroken.
Bai Qingnian took a deep breath, forcing back her grief, and forced a smile that looked more like a grimace: "Father, I'm alright."
Zhiyan pulled him back with concern: "Niannian, you just woke up and you're still very weak. Go inside and rest properly."
Bai Qingnian shook his head: "No, Father, I want to go find her."
Upon hearing this, Zhiyan's expression changed drastically. "How could you be so foolish? She's dead! She's already dead! Where are you going to find her? If you continue like this, your own body won't be able to hold on much longer!"
"Father!" Bai Qingnian suddenly shouted, and Zhi Yan shut his mouth, looking at him with a look of disappointment.
"She won't die!"
Zhiyan pursed her lips, hesitating to speak.
That's it. It's better for him than to accept the fact that Long Qianling is dead, because he's afraid—afraid that this silly child, Niannian, will follow Long Qianling in death...
Deceiving yourself is like dying of despair, isn't it...?
Zhiyan let out a long sigh.
...
The already dim and lifeless realm of gods has now turned pitch black, completely devoid of life, with only the faint glow emanating from the tiny pearl.
Wuqi sat alone in her temple, raising her hand to touch her eyes. At that moment, her golden eyes had turned completely red.
Just like Long Qianling's pair.
"Finally! I've harnessed the power of the laws of both realms for my own use! The position of Lord of the Six Realms has indeed fallen into my hands, hahaha! Heavenly Dao, open your eyes and see! Who is truly qualified to sit in that position? It's me! Not your useless darling!"
Wuqi let out an extremely maniacal laugh, slowly raising his hand, with powerful law energy pulsating in his palm.
Immediately afterwards, she coughed up a mouthful of blood, but she still smiled arrogantly.
She abruptly clenched her fingers, crushing the power of the laws, and then opened her palms again.
Suddenly, her hand was enveloped by a black aura, and then slowly turned into sand—the backlash of the power of the laws.
Once the black energy engulfs her entirely, her body will gradually turn into sand, slowly consuming her life force.
I must get my hands on the exquisite heart as soon as possible!
Wuqi's eyes darkened, and he raised his hand to unleash a burst of divine power.
On the tower outside the hall, the giant bell rang three times, deafeningly loud.
Soon, several figures appeared in the main hall of the God Realm, and Wuqi also appeared in his seat.
"The God Realm is declining day by day, as you all have surely seen. If we want to save the God Realm, we still need to obtain the Linglong Heart. This time, we must retrieve the Linglong Heart intact!" Wuqi said solemnly, her tone full of concern for the God Realm. Little did people know that beneath that facade lay another face.
"The High God is right. Last time it was because of that dragon demon's obstruction. Now that she is dead, no one can stop us. We are determined to get the Linglong Heart."
"Yes, she's dead. Now no one in the mortal realm can stop us. We're determined to have Linglong Heart this time!"
"That would be perfect, everyone. The fate of the God Realm rests on your shoulders!" Wuqi smiled slightly and nodded.
Because she drew upon the power of the laws of the cultivation world and the divine world, she suffered a backlash. Her true form is actually unable to enter other realms, so the last time she went there, it was her clone, not her true form.
Because as soon as she enters, it will attract the attention of Heaven, and then her plan will be ruined.
After all, she had stolen the power of Heaven, harmed Heaven's favorite, and even destroyed her. Heaven would never forgive her for such crimes!
So she could only stay in the realm of gods, waiting for them to bring the exquisite heart back to her.
These people are really stupid; no one noticed anything was wrong after all this time. Haha~
Wuqi's lips curled up slightly, revealing a meaningful smile.
