Chapter 91 Chapter 91 Confession Bureau
After another day of silence, the five-day countdown had begun. As Gou Qiu waited anxiously, Sang Ling finally had a plan for the next step.
She returned to where the trouble first started, the free stage.
Chunming Pavilion was besieged for several days and resumed business today, but it is only engaged in the business of distributing free stage tickets.
This action caused confusion among the cultivators in the demon world, and was followed by ridicule. Now was the time when public opinion was at its peak and Sang Ling's reputation was the worst, yet she was still thinking about opening a stage.
Now Sang Ling has become the center of public opinion in the demon world. One out of every three sentences that the monks talk about is bound to be about her, and that sentence is bound to be criticism. In this situation, Sang Ling is simply asking for trouble by opening a free stage.
The monks who knew the news intended to mock Sang Ling. They were worried that they would not have the opportunity to insult her in person. When they heard the news of the free stage, they immediately rushed to Chunming Pavilion to get tickets to enter and curse. However, when they arrived at the scene, they found that there were no tickets.
You know, the free stage can accommodate 100,000 people. It only took a short time for the news to come out and so many tickets were sold out. This speed is even faster than when Sang Ling was at the peak of his fame before the accident.
There is no doubt that it was Sang Ling's fans who sold out all the tickets.
During the days when Sang Ling was silent, her fans were also silent.
Sang Ling sat at the edge of the stage, looking in the direction of the entrance as usual. There was no decoration on the free stage. Unlike the newly decorated and bright stages in the past, the stage today seemed vast and desolate. Sang Ling, sitting alone on the edge of the stage, looked small and desolate.
She looked at the entrance and after a long time someone finally came in.
He was her old fan, Prince Jiecheng. The moment he saw Sang Ling, a smile appeared on his face subconsciously, and then he froze for some reason, standing still, unable to move forward or backward.
Sang Ling smiled at him, as gentle and joyful as before, but now the silence in front of the stage was terrifying.
A large group of fans soon came in behind Prince Jiecheng. Sang Ling was familiar with each of them, but the expressions on each fan's face were unfamiliar. She stood up, still smiling, and posed in a welcoming gesture.
People outside thought that she was holding a free stage today for a performance, but only she and her fans knew that this was a confession.
The stage slowly filled up, but the sound was silent, except for the sound of silent movement and breathing.
Sang Ling stood still, saluted to all the fans in front of the stage, and said: "Hello everyone, I am Sang Ling."
Finally, there were voices under the stage, the sound of whispered discussions. Sang Ling's words undoubtedly confirmed the authenticity of this public opinion, and she did hide something from them.
Fans knew it a long time ago, but when Sang Ling admitted it herself, they couldn't suppress their emotions.
Some fans with more impatient tempers have already started shouting: "You lied to us!"
These are the most compassionate words. There is no insult or attack. They are just stating their grievances.
Sang Ling was silent for a while, then bowed.
"sorry."
When I looked up, I saw the fans below the stage had mixed emotions in their eyes, anger and sadness.
They were so deeply invested in the relationship that even though they knew they were being deceived, they were unable to extricate themselves immediately. Sang Ling's behavior did hurt them, but they were unable to control their emotions.
Sang Ling sighed and sat down again. She looked at the fans below the stage, looking deeply at them. When she had seen enough, she continued to speak:
"Today's stage is not for performance, nor for seeking your forgiveness. The rumors outside are true. My name is Sang Ling. I am the former senior sister of the Cangwu Immortal Mansion in the Immortal Realm. I am also a hero who stopped the Demon Lord from conquering the Immortal Realm at the cost of falling into the Ghost Abyss. I enjoy a high reputation in the Immortal Realm. I am a hero, a white moonlight, and even the next generation leader recognized by the Cangwu Immortal Mansion. I am honored and have a high status, which seems to be an opposing position to the Demon Realm."
There was an even longer silence under the stage. Even the fans had not expected that Sang Ling would introduce herself so directly.
Gou Qiu, who had made arrangements at Chunming Pavilion and finally arrived at the scene in a hurry, felt dizzy when he heard Sang Ling's words.
Sang Ling said that this was a confession game, but she was too frank.
After the silence, a fan stood up and broke the silence.
He asked Sang Ling, "Why did you come to the Demon Realm? Why did you give up all your honors and come to the Demon Realm?"
Sang Ling looked and saw that the person asking the questions was Wolf Steward of Mo Shengze. As he said, he needed Sang Ling's explanation, so he asked the questions. What he asked was also what all the fans wanted to ask.
Why choose another path when you are so glorious?
Sang Ling's answer was simple and shocking, "Because Sang Ling cannot survive in the fairy world."
The fans under the stage were so emotional that even their emotions were stagnant. Why couldn't someone with all the honors survive?
Sang Ling's voice was indifferent, as if she was telling someone else's story.
"After climbing out of the Ghost Abyss, my master is no longer my master, my senior brother is no longer my senior brother, and my junior brother is no longer my junior brother. I am still alone in the bustling crowd, and I can't get the life-saving medicine. In order to survive, I can only sell myself to Moshengze."
As soon as he finished speaking, all eyes were focused on Wolf Steward of Mo Sheng Ze. As the steward of Mo Sheng Ze, his status in the demon world was not low, and many people knew him. Of course, Wolf Steward knew about this matter, so he nodded.
The moment he nodded, other fans immediately spoke up.
"I have investigated Sang Ling's affairs in the fairy world..."
The fan's voice became weaker and weaker, as if linking the investigation with distrust. She couldn't even look Sang Ling in the eye.
Sang Ling looked at her and said, "Thank you."
The fan suddenly looked up, slowed down his thoughts and continued, "I didn't do this to help Sang Ling expand. After she returned to Cangwu Immortal Mansion after a narrow escape from death, she urgently needed Jiugong Rui to save her life, but this life-saving medicine was actually given by Xiangheng Immortal Venerable to a little junior sister who just had a broken foundation. She survived by selling herself to get the life-saving medicine from Moshengze, but it can't be said that she survived. In order to block Lord Mozun, she was hit by the Ten Directions Curse and fell into life crisis again. The only chance of survival was the Taichu Life and Death Bracelet of Cangwu Immortal Mansion, and this Taichu Life and Death Bracelet was given to that little junior sister. Almost everyone in the Immortal Realm knows this. The heroes of the Immortal Realm couldn't survive in Cangwu Immortal Mansion twice. There is no news about how Sang Ling survived later, but I think these are the reasons why she came to the Demon Realm."
This fan's words are very pertinent. He only states the facts and does not talk about emotions.
Behind the scenes, fans are in disbelief.
Sang Ling always smiles warmly. A big part of their love for her comes from the fact that she is a warm person, which is especially precious in a cold place like the Demon Realm. However, what this warm person has experienced is even worse than the brutality and dangers of the Demon Realm.
The fans' expressions changed, disbelief mixed with suspicion and heartache. They should be calm before everything is settled, but Sang Ling's calm tone expressed extreme loneliness and sadness.
But at a time like this, one cannot be controlled by emotions alone, so Prince Jiecheng stood up and asked another question.
"We know that you didn't tell us your true identity in order to survive. If you don't earn enough spiritual stones during the monthly settlement of Chunming Pavilion, you will be executed. But you have already paid off the spiritual stones you owed to Mo Shengze several months ago."
The questions asked by the Prince of Jiecheng were difficult, and the mixture of reason and emotion made him extremely painful. He wanted Sang Ling to explain everything clearly, but he was extremely afraid that Sang Ling would not be able to explain, and everything was really just a deception.
What the Prince of Jiecheng asked was something that the fans could never find out. If they took the trouble to find out everything that Sang Ling had done in the fairy world, they would have found out everything. However, they could not find out the reason for everything that happened after she came to the demon world.
Doesn’t this question raise the most crucial point? Fans hate being deceived, hate that this deception puts them in an awkward situation, and hate that there is fear behind it. They are afraid that Sang Ling will ignore their trust for the sake of profit.
But the most likely motive behind the deception is indeed interest. Before the matter was exposed, Sang Ling ranked second on the wish list, second only to Lord Demon. What a fame this is, and with it comes astonishing interests. Choosing to deceive for the sake of interests is a common thing in the demon world.
But being accustomed to it doesn't mean they are used to this kind of deception. The deeper the intention, the deeper the hurt.
Sang Ling didn't intend to hide anything, so she said:
"The Taichu Life and Death Bracelet cannot counteract the Demon Lord's Ten Directions Curse. It needs to absorb human wishes. The human wishes are your feelings for me. The more fans like me, the longer I can live. When I reached the second place on the wish list, the power of the Ten Directions Curse had not been completely exhausted. There is one thing I cannot refute. What has happened today is because of my selfishness. I am greedy for your feelings and to live longer. I am so greedy that I want to completely wear out the Ten Directions Curse before telling you everything."
There were no tears in her eyes, but a kind of grief. She was also a mortal, a mortal who had almost died several times. She carried her own life and traces of her original existence on her body. It was too difficult for her to survive, so from that moment on she became selfish.
She was selfish and she should pay the price, so when this incident happened, she did not blame it all on Fu Yan and Ping Jia. It was because she had weaknesses that she was hit in one blow.
Sang Ling took a breath and told the truth.
“I live because of you.”
The fans raised their heads slightly and looked at Sang Ling on the stage. They were selfish, indeed selfish. Their meeting and overflowing emotions originated from her life extension, but they could not blame her at this moment. Apart from concealing her identity, what they felt from Sang Ling from the beginning to the end was genuine equal emotions. The warmth and the spiritual power flowing around them at this moment were all genuine.
Her deception was selfish and was for her own survival.
But I can't blame anyone, my emotions can't do it, and my reason also says I understand.
Finally, Prince Jiecheng's sensibility and rationality coexisted harmoniously, and he asked: "Now, does this matter have any impact on your life?"
