Chapter 197 A story about self-salvation and self-change
Chi Li turned his head and saw Xiao Nianzhong pointing to the sky. Suddenly, Chi Li's expression became solemn.
He pinched the young branch in his sleeve to protect Jiang Jiu's soul, looked at Fo Jiang who had only completed half of the magic circle, and silently tightened his five fingers.
No matter what, he must protect the ginger wine.
When Xiao Nian saw Chi Li nodding to him solemnly again, he felt inexplicably relieved, but also a little sad.
A dignified demon god actually had to rely on his love rival to save the one he loved one one day.
The chains in the clouds surged like a giant dragon, rapidly approaching the Zixia Fairy Palace below, but 'Jiang Jiu' was unaware of the fierce battle.
“…”
Jiang Jiu happened to see this scene. She looked at the chains descending from the sky and sighed silently.
"I never thought I would die so early..."
Perhaps because she was the real body, Jiang Jiu, who was in spirit state, felt a sense of crisis as if she was being locked. It was obvious that the target of the chain was her.
It’s just like the feeling of going through a thunder tribulation.
"It seems like we'll have to explain the other me here today."
Jiang Jiu floated to his side and made a blocking gesture.
Then.....
'Ginger Wine' passed through her soul and body, and continued to attack Yun Shuili, who was already at the end of his strength.
I don’t know if it’s because it absorbed too many spirits and souls, but the inner demon is in its current state and can no longer communicate normally.
The irrational blood-red eyes looked even more terrifying and bloody than Yu Zimo's. If an ordinary person looked into their eyes, they might be frightened to death on the spot.
“…”
Jiang Jiu's movements froze in mid-air. Was she just being ignored like that?
After a while...
Jiang Jiu took a deep breath. It might not be a surprise that the inner demon was targeted by the Heavenly Dao. She was too murderous. If she was allowed to wreak havoc between heaven and earth like this, the harm would be a hundred times more terrifying than the harm caused by the ancient ferocious beasts.
Maybe all six realms will be destroyed.
If she were the Heavenly Dao, she would also want to nip the inner demon in the bud.
But even so, Jiang Jiu didn't intend to sit and wait for death. This was not her style.
All the novels and comics she had read over the years flashed through her mind, and there were various ways to fight against one's evil thoughts and inner demons.
The inner demon was born from her obsession, but what was her obsession?
It is to live as the ideal self and lead the ideal life.
"It's really... a little kid's wish..."
Jiang Jiu smiled bitterly and turned to look at his inner demon who was still in a frenzy. At this point, the best way was to reconcile with his cowardly and incompetent self.
"You always say I'm useless, but what you're really saying is that you're just disappointed in me."
"I have been avoiding everything, but now I think I should accept my own incompetence. I will try to get in touch with new people and new things, and no longer curl up in my comfort zone."
"So, let's make peace."
Jiang Jiu spoke to the inner demon in a very calm tone. Even if she didn't stop, Jiang Jiu knew that the inner demon could hear her.
"My social anxiety, my self-doubt, my subconscious avoidance, I will slowly change. Do you really not want to believe in yourself again?"
She looked at the inner demon with a firm gaze, and finally, after an unknown amount of time, the scarlet in the inner demon's eyes gradually faded away.
Slowly, even the movements stopped.
"You are me, you are my ideal self. Don't you want to see me gradually get better?"
Jiang Jiu and the inner demon who turned around looked at each other.
The inner demon with the same face as hers showed a sneering expression.
"Every time you encounter setbacks, you crumble and retreat into your shell. Is your resolve truly trustworthy?"
Everyone who was originally on guard against the inner demon preparing a big move, when they heard the inner demon suddenly say this, they all showed confusion on their faces.
"I can trust you. I will change and do better."
Jiang Jiu was extremely sure of her current mood, so she nodded vigorously and stretched out her hand towards the inner demon.
"You don't want to save them?"
The inner demon frowned, still questioning Jiang Jiu.
"No, is there a possibility that we can't protect ourselves?"
Jiang Jiu pointed to the sky, and the inner demon looked in the direction of his finger and saw a huge chain almost close to Zixia Fairy Palace, approaching them.
The inner demon came out of the state of loss of rationality, and after Jiang Jiu's reminder, he also realized the laws of heaven contained in the chains, which contained huge destructive energy, enough to reduce Jiang Jiu to ashes.
"...My useless self, isn't it too late for you to reconcile with yourself now..."
The inner demon's tone was obviously speechless, as if he couldn't understand why such touching words had to be said at the critical moment of life and death.
"...If I survive, I'll change..."
Jiang Jiu was silent for a moment, then gave an awkward but polite smile.
“You really are…”
The inner demon was speechless for a moment. There was no need to prove whether Jiang Jiu's determination was true or not at this time. The most important thing was to survive first.
"Never mind, it's coming for me."
Jiang Jiu heard the inner demon sigh heavily, and then spoke in a threatening tone.
"You'd better really change for me in the future. Otherwise, even if I am destroyed by the heavens, I will come back to find you."
Jiang Jiu was stunned, and saw the inner demon sweeping across all the male protagonists who were beaten half-crippled by her with regretful eyes. The eyes seemed to say, 'Why didn't you take these troublemakers away before leaving? It's a pity that there was not enough time.'
"Bye-Bye."
After the inner demon said this, Jiang Jiu suddenly felt dizzy and his vision went black.
Everyone saw that Jiang Jiu, who was originally extremely arrogant and fought seven people alone, suddenly closed his eyes after saying two inexplicable words and fell to the ground.
If it falls to the ground from such a great distance, a mere cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Stage would most likely be killed by the fall.
All of a sudden, everyone, whether they were dragons, immortals, demons, ghost lords, nine-tailed foxes, Buddhist saints, dragon kings, or mermaids, flew towards the woman falling from the sky.
Everyone tried their best to go faster.
Xiao Nianzhong directly used the magic energy as a jet, just wanting to make himself faster.
Yun Shuili simply rolled up the water from the Prison Sea and rode the waves towards the rapidly descending Jiang Jiu.
Unfortunately, they were all a little slower than the Sword Immortal who had just broken through. When Ji Chen hugged the person in his arms, his mind was full of gratitude.
He didn't even consider what would happen if this was a conspiracy of his inner demon, and whether he would be killed for it.
"cut."
Ji Chen turned a deaf ear to the voices of dissatisfaction around him.
The chain was still descending, but the target was no longer the unconscious Jiang Jiu, but a vague black shadow hanging in the air.
