The illegal extraction of the power of the law led to a backlash; so that's how it is...
That golden light was a reminder from the Heavenly Dao to Long Qianling. Just now, the backlash aura on Wuqi's body was released and was noticed by the Heavenly Dao. Only then did she realize that she had extracted the power of the laws she left in the cultivation world and the divine world and made it her own.
Long Qianling paused for a moment, then her gaze towards Wuqi changed.
This person has some nerve!
Long Qianling glanced at her again, and the next moment, without hesitation, she raised her hand and unleashed the power of law within her, directly targeting the Boundless Realm.
Wuqi showed no intention of avoiding him, and flew towards Long Qianling like a madman.
Moments later, the power of the law permeated her body, and she spat out another mouthful of blood.
"puff--"
Wuqi seemed frozen in mid-air, his body trembling uncontrollably.
"ah!"
Wuqi let out a bloodcurdling scream, no… she was unwilling to accept it…
She didn't want to die like this... She hadn't become the ruler of the six realms yet...
She can't die...
Even though she was unwilling to accept her fate, the power of the law had already pierced through her body, and she couldn't survive...
"No……"
Thud—
With a loud bang, Wuqi exploded, instantly turning into countless specks of light and disappearing into the sky.
The entire God Realm remained dark and gloomy, but now, only Long Qianling and Bai Qingnian remained.
Long Qianling stood in mid-air, his back to Bai Qingnian.
Bai Qingnian couldn't see her expression at that moment; he simply watched her silently.
After a long while, Long Qianling slowly turned around and looked at Bai Qingnian expressionlessly. Bai Qingnian was about to speak when he noticed a strange light emanating from Long Qianling.
A golden beam of light descended from the sky, enveloping Long Qianling completely.
But that was not the Pillar of Gods.
“This is…” Bai Qingnian felt a sudden unease.
"Ruthless, well done."
The next moment, red eyes slowly opened in the sky, gazing at Long Qianling and the other person.
Bai Qingnian looked up at those eyes, her fear emanating from the depths of her heart.
This is... the way of Heaven!
“This is what Wuqing should have done…” Long Qianling’s voice was completely flat, revealing no emotion.
The colossal figure of the Heavenly Dao gradually materialized, looking down upon Long Qianling and Bai Qingnian. "Wuqing, now that you have completed your mission, it is time for you to go where you are going."
Long Qianling tilted her head slightly, her eyes expressionless. "I—do not wish to."
The Heavenly Dao met his gaze, "Ruthless, your mission is to protect all living beings, not..."
She didn't finish her sentence, her gaze falling on Bai Qingnian.
Under the watchful gaze of the heavens, Bai Qingnian was forced to lower his head.
The Heavenly Dao withdrew its gaze, and a powerful force surged toward Long Qianling.
Long Qianling stood there blankly, without dodging.
"The Great Black Dragon!"
Seeing this, Bai Qingnian anxiously pounded on Long Qianling's magic array, trying to get out.
If it were before, he would definitely have been able to break through Long Qianling's magic array. But now, Long Qianling is imbued with the power of laws, even the magic array he casually set up is imbued with it. No matter how strong his Linglong Heart is, he still cannot break through this magic array.
"Ruthless...I understand."
Long Qianling turned around and met Bai Qingnian's tearful eyes, her eyelashes trembling slightly.
The words etched in her soul—she couldn't forget him, she couldn't betray him…
The will of Heaven is for her to leave, to leave Bai Qingnian.
Although she has no feelings for him now, she must have loved him very much before.
Love... What is love?
Long Qianling narrowed her red eyes and flashed outside the magic array.
"Big Black Dragon...please don't go...don't go." Bai Qingnian's tears fell like pearls as she pleaded with the woman standing before her.
Seeing this, Long Qianling subconsciously raised her hand and gently wiped away the tears from Bai Qingnian's eyes. Her hand passed through the magic array and lingered for a moment as if reluctant to part.
"Ruthless..." Heaven's voice rang out again, once more tinged with anger.
Long Qianling took a deep look at Bai Qingnian, then turned to face the sky and said, "I am willing, but I want him to come with me!"
"The Great Black Dragon..."
Tiandao frowned deeply, "He's no good."
How could the ruler of the six realms indulge in love? Her love could not belong to just one person.
She allowed herself to remember this man, but that didn't mean she allowed them to stay together.
"Did you erase my memories?" Long Qianling suddenly changed the subject.
The Heavenly Dao was silent for a moment, not expecting that she would notice so quickly. As expected of her most favored child: "Yes."
Upon hearing Tiandao's reply, Long Qianling's usually expressionless face suddenly turned angry. "What right do you have?"
"Because this is your mission." The majestic voice of Heaven echoed in the air.
“Protecting all living beings is protection, and protecting one person is also protection. There is no conflict between the two. Why erase my memories!” Long Qianling’s red eyes were tinged with anger as she looked up and met the eyes of the Heavenly Dao.
The Heavenly Dao was momentarily speechless at Long Qianling's question. After a long while, it slowly spoke: "If your heart is set on one person, how can you treat all beings in the Six Realms fairly?"
Long Qianling's voice was firm: "I will not let personal feelings override public justice."
Heaven's Way: No! You will. This fox is more important to you than all living beings!
Long Qianling, whose memories haven't been erased: You understand now o(*≧▽≦)ツ┏━┓
The Heavenly Dao stared at Long Qianling's resolute face, its heart wavering slightly. But soon, the Heavenly Dao regained its coldness, "Ruthless, I do not wish to force you, but this is your mission, you have no choice! If you insist on this, then I have no choice but to eliminate him."
Upon hearing this, Long Qianling clenched her hands tightly at her sides and remained silent.
But she knew that at this moment, her heart was in turmoil.
Her heart told her she couldn't leave him, but she didn't want him to get hurt.
"Ruthless, I believe you already have the answer to the question of how to choose."
"Don't go, Great Black Dragon! Don't leave me...no..."
Bai Qingnian cried out, raising his hand to pound the magic circle forcefully, his eyes already blurred with tears.
He was selfish. He didn't want his great black dragon to protect all living beings; he just wanted her by his side, to be with their baby...
That was his great black dragon...
"ruthless……"
"Big Black Dragon! Don't go! I'm not afraid of death. Even if she really wants to kill me, I'm not afraid. I just beg you not to leave..." Bai Qingnian pounded on the magic circle even harder.
For a moment, all that could be heard was his crying and shouting. After a long while, Long Qianling slowly spoke.
“You’re right, I can’t guarantee that I will always treat all beings in the six realms fairly.”
If she regains her memories in the future, her heart will definitely lean towards Bai Qingnian. After all, she has engraved his name in her soul, so it is conceivable how important Bai Qingnian is to her.
"So, it's time for you to leave," Heavenly Dao said slowly.
