Shui Meiyin had been trying hard to stop crying, but as her shoulders trembled, she became more and more out of control. She clenched her teeth and bit her lips hard again and again, but she couldn't stop.
“Alright, stop crying, stop crying.” Yun Che comforted softly.
He had finally stopped crying with the comfort of Shui Meiyin, but now it was suddenly her turn again.
“I…I…wuwuwu…”
Yun Che stopped talking and hugged her tightly... He would never let her go again in this lifetime.
He knew that Shui Meiyin also needed to vent. These things had been accumulated in her heart, and she couldn't tell anyone, which was also a great torture.
And every one of these tears is because of him and for him.
After crying for more than half a minute, Shui Meiyin finally stopped crying. She raised her delicate head from Yun Che's chest, her starry eyes still filled with tears, about to fall.
Yun Che lowered his head and looked at Shui Meiyin's red eyes. He smiled and said, "If your sister saw you like this, she would definitely stab me with the Yaoxi Sword."
"My sister is so gentle, she won't do that." Shui Meiyin smiled with tears in her eyes: "Besides, you are the majestic Demon Lord, who dares to stab you with a sword..."
She tapped her fingers lightly on Yun Che’s chest and said with tears in her eyes, “However, Brother Yun Che’s chest has become so warm, and it is no longer so cold. That’s why I… hugged you for so long and couldn’t bear to leave.”
Yun Che himself could feel most clearly that his blood was no longer cold.
“But…” Shui Meiyin’s fingers still lingered on Yun Che’s chest, and she whispered, “Brother Yun Che, the warmth here can only be given to me and to all the people you care about. As for those enemies, those threats that must be eliminated, you are still the demon lord who will not show any mercy, okay?”
“Okay.” Yun Che nodded heavily: “This is also one of the reasons why you are hesitating over and over whether to tell me now, right?”
"Um."
Shui Meiyin said quietly, “I originally wanted to tell you all this after Brother Yun Che defeated the Dragon God Realm and eliminated all threats.”
"Because I'm afraid that if I tell you too early, you won't be able to resist your impulse and put Blue Pole Star at risk. I'm afraid that your resentment will spread and you won't be ruthless anymore. I'm also afraid that you'll still worry about me and be upset..."
"However, the way you dealt with the Nanming God Realm scared me. And your order to attack the Dragon God Realm was too hasty and too sudden... I am sure that behind your determination and confidence in facing the Dragon God Realm, there must be very cruel costs and means."
“…” Yun Che couldn’t deny it.
“I understand.” Yun Che said with a guilty conscience, “Don’t worry, whether it’s the Dragon God Realm or the Western God Territory, I will do my best to protect myself… I will never force myself to take any risks again.”
At this point, how could he not understand why Shui Meiyin wanted to tell him everything in advance.
She hoped that after seeing that Blue Pole Star was still alive, he would no longer risk his life, but keep himself intact and reunite with them after everything was over.
It was just that when she was about to leave the Seven Star Realm, Shui Meiyin was still hesitant about whether to tell the truth. After meeting Jin Yue, she was obviously more inclined to continue hiding it.
However, as fate would have it, they met Xia Yuanba there, who was heading to the God Realm to look for Yun Che.
“Even if it’s just to repay my little Meiyin with the rest of my life, I must make sure that I live a long, complete life.” Yun Che said half-jokingly.
Shui Meiyin looked at him and suddenly said, "Brother Yun Che, if...if you really want to repay me, then...promise me three things, okay?"
Yun Che was startled. Looking at the strange starlight trembling in Shui Meiyin’s eyes, he nodded slowly and said very solemnly, “Okay, no matter what it is, I agree to it.”
This is a very important promise, every word comes from the heart. Because of the kindness and love Shui Meiyin has given him, let alone three things, he will never be able to repay her even if he gives everything, even his whole life.
clear.
Shui Meiyin reached out to wipe away the tears from her face, and her expression became serious.
“First of all, I hope that… Brother Yun Che, no matter what happens in the future, even if… even if it is more terrible and more desperate than in the past few years, you must… must treat yourself well, and never resent or hurt yourself again… and you must not have the will to die.”
"because……"
Shui Meiyin, who had just calmed down for a while, suddenly had tears in her eyes again: "Your life, your safety no longer belongs to more than just you. In this world, there are people... who care about you more than you think... who love you... For you, she can really... do everything... everything... even... even..."
"Even if it's just to live up to them...you can't...sink yourself into the abyss again. Because even if they...really leave you...forever...for them, your being able to live a peaceful life is their...their eternal wish even after they leave."
The tears turned into beads and fell again.
Yun Che’s heart was beating fast. He stretched out his fingers and gently wiped away the tears on the girl’s face, drop by drop. He said gently and solemnly, “Okay. I will remember every word. I promise every word… I promise forever.”
There is only one person in the world who treats him like this, what else can he complain about or hate?
Shui Meiyin calmed down for a while, and then continued: "The second thing is, I hope that after Brother Yun Che defeats the Dragon God Realm and becomes the master of the world, he can treat innocent people kindly."
Yun Che: “…”
Yun Che was not surprised at all by this request. He had already sensed it when Shui Meiyin took him around the Seven Star Business Region.
“Although the Dragon God Realm was ungrateful and sorry to Brother Yun Che, and the Dragon Emperor even killed Master, they cannot be forgiven. However, the Dragon God Realm has done a great job as the master of the God Realm over the years, so good that no other king realm can replace it.”
"The Dragon God Realm has unrivaled strength and can easily suppress any king realm in the world. However, the Dragon God clan is arrogant but does not like to bully the weak. They are not afraid of war but never provoke it. Therefore, even though they are supreme, they have never used their power to plunder other people's land. Other king realms never dare to act recklessly in public because they have the Dragon God Realm above them."
“If the king realm that possesses the power to dominate the divine realm is the Brahma Emperor Divine Realm or the Nanming Divine Realm, you can imagine how terrifying it would be.”
Yun Che listened carefully. He hated the Dragon God Realm so much that he wanted to kill Long Bai, but he did not deny Shui Meiyin’s words.
At least in the past million years, the Dragon God Realm was the most suitable ruler of the God Realm.
“This Seven Star Realm only shows a tiny corner of the God Realm. Through the projection from the Eastern Divine Region, they all know the truth of what happened back then. They know that Brother Yun Che was hurt and betrayed, and he was also the one who saved them.”
“However, facing the approach of the Northern Divine Region, their first reaction was still great fear and uneasiness. They even abandoned their ancestral land and fled. The order became chaotic in a short period of time. It won’t be long before it completely collapses.”
"Because they can't imagine a world ruled by demons with endless panic."
“All of this is bound to happen, it’s unavoidable. But…” She looked at Yun Che lovingly, “I believe that in the not too distant future, when Brother Yun Che becomes the master of the world, he will definitely do better than the Dragon God Realm, right?”
Yun Che slowly stretched out his hand and looked at his palm.
When he was exiled to the Star God Realm, he was reborn in Nirvana and returned to the Profound Sky Continent. He experienced darkness, and after meeting Chu Yuechan and Yun Wuxin, he stepped from darkness into endless light...
In particular, after Yun Wuxin gave up his talent and risked his life to save him, he looked at his hands in this way, and secretly vowed to never let these hands that protected and embraced his daughter be stained by sin and filth again.
That was a major change in his state of mind, which allowed warmth and kindness to occupy most of his soul. He developed a rejection of the blood and sin that he was once accustomed to. In contrast, the hatred, resentment, hatred and violence faded away invisibly.
He still remembered that after returning to the God Realm, Xia Qingyue had said to him bluntly: “Your heart has softened, is it because of your daughter?”
After that, not long after, his state of mind was pushed to another extreme...and it was an extreme extreme.
Now, the blood and sins stained on his hands are so heavy that they cannot be explained in any words, and can never be washed away.
“Okay.” Yun Che looked away, clenched his hands, and responded with a single word.
All the killing, blood and sin are mine alone.
I once wanted to push this world into eternal darkness and turn this filthy divine world into a dark purgatory.
But now...
Even if it is just to prevent them from being contaminated by this endless sin, I will at least give some light back to this world.
But it must be after everything is over!
Before that, all the damned people, all possible threats... must be completely wiped out!
Even if I have committed a thousand times more sins before that, I will never make the same mistake again!
"What's the third thing?" he asked, still smiling.
But Shui Meiyin's suddenly sad look made his smile disappear instantly.
"Atone...with me..."
“Atonement… for sins?” Yun Che was slightly surprised.
He has committed too many sins. The number of people who have died because of him over the years alone is simply too numerous to count.
With her...her sin?
Shui Meiyin lowered her head and murmured, "Tianshui Star, which was destroyed in place of Lanji Star, is not a dead star."
Yun Che: “…”
"If the star that replaced the Blue Pole Star did not have blood and countless souls dispersed after its demise, then people would definitely notice the abnormality immediately."
"So, Tianshui Star is also a planet with many living creatures. The richness of its life force is very similar to that of the Blue Pole Star."
"Every tree, flower, grass, insect, bird, human, and animal are completely innocent. But because of my selfishness, all... all..."
“It’s not your fault.” Yun Che stopped her from talking: “They were killed by the Moon God Emperor, and they suffered because of me. You just moved them to another place… Everything has nothing to do with you!”
When they were in the Northern Divine Region, in order to frame the Eternal Heaven Realm and create an opportunity to attack the Eastern Divine Region, they directly destroyed the three star realms in the Northern Divine Region.
At that time, he was not moved at all, nor did he feel any pity or guilt.
But Shui Meiyin is completely different from him.
She possessed the only pure soul in the world, a noble birth and unparalleled talent, and her profound strength cultivation was now as high as the seventh level of the Divine Lord Realm...
However, there was never a trace of blood in her body, and her eyes were always like stars in the distant sky.
Although she has the cultivation level of a late-stage Divine Lord, it is very likely that she has never killed anyone and has never been tainted by any dirt.
But for him, the entire planet was borne in blood debt.
Shui Meiyin didn't nod or shake her head, but said in a very soft, dreamy voice: "Let's return it together, okay?"
“…” Yun Che tried hard to say something, but in the end, all he said was silence.
No matter how many words, comfort, gratitude, persuasion, or guilt you use, they are all pale in front of Shui Meiyin's starry eyes.
Yun Che’s only response was to nod gently.
Can the sin of killing one person be redeemed by saving a hundred people?
He didn't know, and no one could answer.
If a hundred people can’t do it, then a thousand people, or ten thousand people!
He could bear endless sins and go down to the lowest level of purgatory... but he could never allow Shui Meiyin to be overwhelmed by this sense of guilt for the rest of her life.
