Chapter 90 [Jiaozhu] Tiandao is actually a child
“Whatever you do or understand, whether good or evil, all depends on a single thought.”
Chen Lian understood what Lingzhu said, but so what? He had already taken this step and there was no turning back. Those people had betrayed him first, so he couldn't blame them!
He was about to refute when his consciousness suddenly stopped. When he opened his eyes again, there was a different person in the body.
"According to you, you are good and I am evil?" The alien waved his hand and easily dispelled the golden thread's restraints. "You and I were born together, so why do you worship you as a god and call me a ghost?"
The alien looked at Lingzhu with disdain, holding Shen Lian's Wan Gu Sword in his hand, with the tip of the sword pointing at Lingzhu.
"After all, you have occupied my main consciousness for so long, but you still refuse to let me out. Then I will find a way out myself!" The alien waved his hand and immediately shot out two sword energies.
"I want freedom too, and I want to be worshipped as a god!"
Lingzhu raised his hand and easily dissolved the sword energy. Looking at the alien's appearance, to be honest, he was also partly responsible. If he was not strong and the power of the two sides was balanced, such a thing would not have happened.
But they were in the same Demonic Abyss, in the same bead, and the demonic aura around them was too strong, so his power naturally had to be stronger in order to suppress the demonic aura of the Demonic Abyss.
"We are one, so how can there be a distinction between gods and ghosts? You and I coexist and should support each other, not fight each other." Lingzhu said gently, "You are strong and I am weak, you are weak and I am strong. This is the rule set by the Heavenly Dao when it gave us consciousness."
"Heaven's Way? Why should I return to Heaven's Way? Heaven's Way gives me consciousness, so why doesn't it separate you and me? Since He wants to send the Buddha away, why doesn't He send him to the West? Don't talk to me about Heaven's Way. Heaven's Way is unfair. I will go against Heaven's Way!"
Their fates were bound by the laws of nature. Even though they were of the same origin, they were given different roles and destinies. Since he was destined to be evil, he would be evil to the end!
Lingzhu shook his head. Alien species could not defeat the Heavenly Dao. The Heavenly Dao was the Heavenly Dao because the three realms were created by the Heavenly Dao, and all laws were also set by the Heavenly Dao. Only external forces, which were not under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Dao, could compete with the Heavenly Dao.
"Defy Heaven—" A loud noise came from the sky, "Who dares to defy Heaven!"
The loud noise in the sky was like thunder, shaking the entire demon world. The alien looked up at the sky, only to see dark clouds, lightning and thunder.
When everyone heard the sound and looked, they saw a man in white clothes, spotless, floating down from the dark clouds.
Yan Ru knew it was the Heavenly Dao himself when she saw it. She had joined forces with everyone to kill the Holy Python, but the Holy Python was an ancient giant beast. Even if its body died, as long as its soul was still there, there would be a day when it would be reunited with its body. So she ordered Hua Luochen to take the temporarily dormant soul of the Holy Python and her sealing spell, and go west to seal the Holy Python's soul.
Yan Ru bowed, knelt on both knees, and touched the earth with her forehead. The crowd had never seen the Heavenly Dao, nor had they known it could take human form. But seeing Yan Ru perform such a grand ceremony, they knew this untainted figure in white must be even more formidable than Yan Ru. So, they all imitated Yan Ru's posture, kneeling on the ground.
The arrival of the Heavenly Dao heightened the tension within the Demonic Abyss. His eyes revealed a detached indifference, as if the world's turmoil had nothing to do with him. His gaze fell upon the alien, a scrutiny and a judgment.
"Since you don't want to coexist, I will grant you freedom." After saying this, Tiandao snapped his fingers, and the bodies of Shen Lian and A Jiang fell. A small golden ball of light emerged from A Jiang's body, and a small ball surrounded by demonic energy emerged from between Shen Lian's eyebrows. "However, whether you are strong or weak is entirely up to you. I will no longer control you. However, if you do anything that harms the people of the world, I will destroy you."
With that, the ball transformed into two swaddled infants. Tiandao placed his hands between Lingzhu and the alien's brows, erasing their memories. As Tiandao's magical power took effect, Lingzhu and the alien's memories gradually dissipated like smoke on the wind. Their eyes revealed a bewildered expression, as if they were newborns, ignorant of the world.
"Since I've granted you a new life, it depends on whether you have the blessing." Tiandao closed his hands, and the two babies closed their eyes and fell asleep. As for when they would wake up, it depended on their luck. He waved his hand and handed the baby to Yan Ru, "Since you brought them here, it's up to you to solve the problem."
The Heavenly Dao has never cared about the Three Realms, but he does not tolerate anyone daring to disobey him and go against him. He heard what the alien said, so he came down to resolve the matter.
These three realms were just something he created to play with when he was bored, but it wouldn't work without someone to take care of them, so he used his divine power to create a human being - Yan Ru.
But even the people he created dared to disobey him and took the spirit pearl and the alien species away from the Demon Abyss at will. He wanted to take back Yan Ru's divine power, but the three realms could not be left without anyone to govern them, so he gave the spirit pearl and the alien species consciousness. Now it seems that he was wrong again.
The Three Realms were nothing more than his playthings; he could play with them as he pleased, so why should he interfere? Since those people were so stubborn and refused to obey his orders, he would have a good time and see who was king.
"I have given them new bodies. As for their future, it depends on themselves."
Tiandao turned around and looked at Ajiang and Shen Lian lying together. He said, "Shen Lian was an accomplice to the tiger. His death is not a pity, and he will be reborn as an animal. Now that Ajiang has been reduced to ashes, his punishment can be forgiven."
In the eyes of Heaven, both Chen Lian and A Jiang were at fault. A Jiang's fault lay in his inability to protect the people and save Chen Lian, but he also contributed, even though he failed in his attempt to persuade Chen Lian not to fall into evil. If that were the case, he wouldn't have given away the mermaid pearl A Jiang had left behind, allowing the mermaids to return to the West Sea as A Jiang wished. Perhaps Chen Lian and A Jiang could have rekindled their relationship, who knows.
He was looking forward to it.
Before leaving, Tiandao flicked his sleeves and golden powder was scattered to everyone. He came and went without a trace and didn't want others to know him, so he tampered with those people's memories.
"Aru, you don't have much time left." Tiandao looked at Yan Ru deeply and left.
Yan Ru looked at the two children in her arms, who were sleeping as if dead.
…………………………………………
In his previous life, Ye Musi had a very long dream in order to obtain this mermaid pearl. He could remember what happened in the dream, but he could not remember the appearance of the people in the dream. Everything was confused. He really couldn't remember it. This might be related to the spell cast by the Heavenly Dao.
He finished the dream from Chen Lian's perspective. His heart felt so empty and tired, just like Chen Lian's heart. He understood Chen Lian's unwillingness and resentment. Sometimes, when he saw Mu Chi being so nice to Hua Jin but never having a good face towards himself, he would also feel unwilling and resentful. But fortunately, he had Zhu Jianye by his side, so he would not be isolated and helpless like Chen Lian, with everyone plotting against him.
He was going to leave the moment he got the mermaid pearl. He wanted to go back and use the pearl to remove the evil spirit from Lu Lishen's body.
Although A Jiang did not successfully survive the calamity and the mermaid pearl still had a trace of evil spirit, it still had the power to purify the evil spirit.
As soon as he stepped out of the platform, the entire hall began to shake, because at this moment Lu Lishen was fighting with the Holy Python.
Lu Lishen was also involved in this dream. He understood the context of the matter from Ajiang's perspective. He felt that Ajiang was too humble. Being cute to the extreme was indeed humble. He did not want to have the same result as Ajiang and be separated from his lover Dong Fen, so he had to become strong.
Because A Jiang died early, he woke up earlier than Ye Musi. Seeing that Ye Musi also showed signs of waking up, he was about to leave, but he met the Holy Python.
He recognized it at a glance. This was Chen Lian's mount. Ye Musi was still in the hall. He had to deal with the Holy Python and couldn't let Ye Musi find out that he had followed him.
So he led the Holy Python away. When Ye Musi surfaced from the sea, the Holy Python's devilish breath had already stimulated the blood in his body. He had been possessed by the devil and no longer needed the Mermaid Pearl, so he left without saying goodbye.
After coming ashore, Ye Musi was unaware of this and searched for Lu Lishen for a long time. It was Yinyou Valley that sent him a message, and only then did he know that Lu Lishen had become the new Demon Lord.
Ye Musi looked at the waves in the distance. Recalling this from his previous life, he felt quite emotional. He turned around and looked at Lu Lishen.
"Even if we are no longer lovers, you are still my disciple. I will not ignore you." Ye Musi said, "Master wants you to participate in the Linghong Martial Arts Competition."
Lu Lishen also wanted to participate in the Linghong competition and win the championship to make Ye Musi happy, but as soon as he used his cultivation, his demonic aura would be exposed. Going to get the mermaid pearl would alarm the Holy Python. He could not use his cultivation to the fullest, and he was worried that he would not be able to protect Ye Musi.
"A-Li, even if we're not that close anymore, we're still master and disciple. We can still get along like before. Why do you always keep me at a distance?"
Ye Musi was distressed. He wanted Lu Lishen to stay by his side. He had not expelled Lu Lishen from the sect in this life. Why did Lu Lishen want to cut off ties with him so much? Was there something he did wrong?
"How can I resist? Master has used puppetry to bind me to his side, how can I resist?"
"Don't argue with me." Ye Musi was determined. He wanted to get the Mermaid Pearl. He wanted Lu Lishen to stay by his side. "I wanted to get the Mermaid Pearl in my last life, and I want to get it in this life too."
Hearing this, Lu Lishen's pupils suddenly shrank, "Last life?"
Lu Lishen thought about all the abnormal behaviors of Ye Musi in this life. It turned out that it was because he was also reborn like himself. If that was the case, he could not let Ye Musi take risks. The previous life was already very thrilling, and everything was different in this life. He didn't know what was waiting for them.
He just wanted Ye Musi to be well, he didn't care about anything else, this was his only request.
"Yes, you are reborn, and so am I." Ye Musi stroked Lu Lishen's cheek, "In your last life, your master did not blame you, nor did he resent you. In your last life, it was because you failed to obtain the Mermaid Pearl earlier and failed to prevent you from becoming a demon. That will not happen in this life. Your master will protect you, and no one will dare to touch you."
"I don't want you to protect me..." Lu Lishen said, his eyes darkening. If it weren't for him in his previous life, Ye Musi would definitely still be fine, unaffected by anything. It was all his fault, all because of him. How could he be qualified to ask for Ye Musi's protection?
