The baseness and depravity revealed in the words of the Supreme God completely overshadowed the childlike innocence she displayed. Jealousy lingered in her broken body, more intensely than in any other tale of deep affection that had deviated from the original plot she had witnessed in the past thirty million years.
Why are these mortals able to escape the shackles of fate, meet and fall in love, and remain devoted to each other forever?
Her supreme god, her high and mighty supreme god, the supreme god who possessed unlimited power, never gave her a trace of love, and couldn't even keep the promise he made to her.
On what grounds?
Why...
Why?!
The girl's dark pupils gleamed with a silvery light, and every surge of anger was filled with curses.
Scattered starlight rose from the sea of roses, and the delicate dolls nestled together began to dissipate.
Lu Shizhen was no exception.
Countless starlight pierced through her damp hair, rising one by one in Xu Shiyue's peripheral vision.
Transparent and ethereal, the outstretched hand tried to grasp it, but could only clench it helplessly.
She couldn't catch her.
She couldn't catch her...
Blood flowed down that pale arm, stopping at the elbow and coalescing into a scarlet drop.
It hovered there, refusing to fall.
This is the second time that Xu Shiyue has lost Lu Shizhen.
The words came true.
"You won't see it... Hahahaha... You won't see it..."
The deity repeated the same sentence over and over again, his voice, close to Xu Shiyue's ear, was breathy and filled with the smell of death.
The surging laughter was as thick as a poppy growing from death, crawling with madness.
Whether it was anger or sorrow, Xu Shiyue's eyes were bloodshot as she gripped the main god's wrist tightly.
The bulging veins were filled with anger, and the sound of breaking parts echoed in the silent space. Short-circuited currents passed through the red petals, crackling and popping.
She wants her dead.
But she did it.
She's about to die.
And death, at this moment, becomes the most powerless form of retribution.
Xu Shiyue's hands tightened, and she stared fiercely at the ragged little girl in front of her. After a half-second pause, she said, "But I will find her."
"Is that so?" the God asked with a laugh, then raised his gaze from beside Xu Shiyue's ear.
She stared calmly at the main system that was about to replace her as the main god, and said to herself, "The main god is destined to be replaced by the main system. I'd like to see what it will be like when you are replaced by the main system that you have carefully cultivated."
Those silvery eyes reflected the endless darkness above, their unfocused pupils pale and powerless.
The supreme deity clearly sensed the loss of power within her and understood that her current state was death: "What a pity... I will never see it again..."
It's unclear whether this was a response to his previous statement or a reference to Xu Shiyue's statement.
As he spoke these words, it seemed that he had exhausted the last bit of strength that the main god had suddenly mustered. As he spoke, the arm that had been struggling against Xu Shiyue's hand suddenly fell down.
At that very moment, the sound of falling gravel became clearer and more frequent as the wind grew stronger.
The candlelight flickered uneasily as the earth trembled, and the exiled deity, without the support of its master's power, gradually began to crumble.
The huge boulder that had been hanging high crashed down with a cracking sound. Xu Shiyue suddenly stood up and almost instinctively pulled Lu Shizhen into her arms.
The boulder hovered above them before flying off to another location.
"Miss Xu, run!" The main system, no, it should be said that the current main god protected Xu Shiyue and then opened the system door for her. "My power can only maintain stability for a while. It will collapse completely soon."
"Thank you." Xu Shiyue nodded slightly to the God. She looked at Lu Shizhen sleeping in her arms and said to the God, "After you have settled everything, I think we need to meet."
The sounds of breaking echoed in layers, and Xu Shiyue's calmness contrasted sharply with the chaos around her.
She left those words behind, got up, and carried Lu Shizhen into the passage behind her.
She's taking her home.
The first rays of sunlight shone from the horizon, traversing the dim earth.
The sky, which had been pitch black all night, was now covered with a hazy layer of light, as if it had faded, and slowly turned into a deep blue color.
Lu Shi'en sat by the pool in the backyard of the villa, holding his computer. The little girl curled up, her head hanging in the air, bobbing up and down.
She's been sitting here like this for two nights now, clutching her laptop. Shen Yanxing couldn't do anything about it, so he simply sat down next to her and kept her company.
Lu Shien woke up on the day Xu Shiyue and Lu Shizhen disappeared.
As agreed, Shen Yanxing gave Xu Shiyue the letter she had mentioned, in which Xu Shiyue confessed everything to her.
Lu Shien never expected that the person she had been targeting would be her own sister.
It was as if she had been possessed by a deity; she accepted Lu Shizhen's identity very quickly and easily figured out that the older sister she liked more in the latter half of the year was not the older sister from before.
Does that mean Lu Shizhen isn't her older sister?
How could that be?
She still misses the feeling of her rubbing her head.
I still prefer the serious and earnest way she taught me principles.
Even if it's only half, it's still a loss that has been recovered.
So, come back soon.
elder sister.
Suddenly, the programs on Lu Shien's computer began to change rapidly.
As if sensing something, Lu Shi'en, who was drowsy, suddenly raised his head and saw a beam of light that seemed to have suddenly appeared, following the direction of the signal.
Unlike the real sunlight, this light was blindingly bright, and seemed to come from a higher dimension.
Lu Shi'en held his breath, both expectant and wary of the person emerging from the light.
Then a nude-colored wristband wrapped around her slender ankle suddenly came into view.
These are Xu Shiyue's shoes.
Xu Shiyue is back.
"Sister, sister is back! Sister..." Her vigilance was completely overshadowed by anticipation. Lu Shi'en rushed over to the people who had not yet fully emerged from the courtyard. However, she froze as soon as she saw Xu Shiyue walk out in front of her.
Lu Shizhen was pale and remained unresponsive as she leaned against Xu Shiyue's chest.
Her clothes were even soaked, clinging tightly to her body along with her hair.
"What's wrong with my sister..." Lu Shi'en asked, stunned and nervous.
Xu Shiyue held Lu Shizhen firmly in her arms and said calmly, "She's asleep, don't disturb her."
"How……"
Given this scene, how could Lu Shi'en possibly believe such a reason?
She was about to catch up with Xu Shiyue to ask her what was going on, but Shen Yanxing stopped her.
She noticed the wounds on Xu Shiyue's body. Although the wounds had healed quickly, they still looked shocking.
She knew that a lot must have happened during the time Xu Shiyue and Lu Shizhen were missing. Now that they were back safe and sound, she should rest for a while.
So, undisturbed by anyone, Xu Shiyue carried Lu Shizhen back to her room.
The rising steam piled up layer upon layer in the room, and the bubble-filled water submerged the girl's pale and thin body.
Xu Shiyue adjusted the water temperature and, instead of rushing to clean herself up, carefully helped Lu Shizhen wash up.
Her long, smooth hair had a faint fragrance, and even though it still clung to her cheeks, she didn't look disheveled at all.
Her clean little face flushed pink in the steam, her fine eyelashes spread out like fans, and she looked so obedient and peaceful as if she were just asleep.
I can only fall asleep.
Xu Shiyue silently pondered, carefully washing Lu Shizhen's body, and then taking out the outfit that Lu Shizhen used to wear most often from the wardrobe.
She helped her dry off and blow-dry her hair. Looking at Lu Shizhen's current appearance, the corners of her lips, which had been drooping since the beginning, finally curled up slightly.
It's so clean and refreshing; it's so much better than the way the main god does it.
For two days in a row, the sun shone brightly, making the bed fluffy and soft.
Xu Shiyue carefully placed Lu Shizhen on the bed and gently wrapped her in a down comforter.
Xu Shiyue thought that this kind of atmosphere would surely create a beautiful and peaceful dream for her.
Suddenly, the room lights flickered, and the next second the main god appeared behind Xu Shiyue.
She had materialized into a living being, her tall figure enveloped in divine radiance: "Miss Xu."
Xu Shiyue continued tidying Lu Shizhen's blankets at a leisurely pace, her back to the main god, and said, "So fast, it seems you've taken over the job very smoothly."
“I had already begun managing all the worlds during the time the Supreme God was in exile, so taking over was easy,” the Supreme God said.
Xu Shiyue nodded slightly and turned around: "Since you're here, I don't need to look for you in the system space. I asked you to come here earlier because I wanted to ask you for a favor."
Without the slightest hesitation, the deity readily agreed: "Miss Xu, please speak."
“Five years ago, my second aunt told me that Lu Shizhen in this world experienced a major event when she was a child.” Xu Shiyue spoke calmly, and the main god immediately retrieved the relevant files: “Yes, the Lu family's house caught fire unexpectedly, but it was a natural accident in the operation of the world, and there was no trace of interference…”
The Supreme God carefully examined the world projection from that time, a hint of regret in his voice.
However, Xu Shiyue was not disappointed by this. Instead, she said with certainty, "So she must have been hospitalized at that time."
"I was also hospitalized at that time."
As she said this, Xu Shiyue's gaze fell back on Lu Shizhen.
The rosy color on her cheeks, flushed by the heat, slowly faded, leaving only a weak, pale complexion, like that of a patient who had been suffering from a chronic illness for many years.
Xu Shiyue grasped Lu Shizhen's clasped hands, her thumb gently stroking her slightly cool skin, and said in a deep voice, "And she has spent her entire life in the hospital."
As the sun sets and the moon rises, it feels like nothing has been done during the day before night falls.
The night breeze of late spring was no longer so cool, and the water in the pool rippled with light, ruffling the little girl's lonely figure.
After obtaining Xu Shiyue's permission, Lu Shien went to the room to see Lu Shizhen.
She said a lot, apologizing and expressing her longing, but the person just slept soundly, as if she would never wake up.
Young and inexperienced, they are easily discouraged by the facts before them.
Lu Shien sat by the pool, hugging his legs, feeling dejected and heartbroken.
Suddenly, Lu Shi'en's gaze fell upon a bottle of milk in the upper right corner.
It was warm and cozy, and felt especially precious in the night breeze.
As if he had guessed who it was, Lu Shi'en's straight brows furrowed immediately: "You..."
Just as she was about to look up and get angry, she realized that Xu Shiyue was standing next to her: "Shen Yanxing asked me to give this to you. She told me to give it to you if I saw you sitting outside alone in the middle of the night."
The little girl's gaze wavered, and the anger in her eyes subsided considerably. She turned her face away and muttered, "Who asked her to meddle?"
Xu Shiyue raised an eyebrow, tossed the milk in her hand, and prepared to take it back and drink it herself.
But before she could even begin to make that movement, a hand suddenly reached out and took it away.
This family is all tough on the outside but soft on the inside.
Xu Shiyue remained silent, gathered her skirt, and sat down next to Lu Shien.
A gentle night breeze carried a cool, slightly damp feeling as the milk warmed Lu Shi'en's palm.
She gently turned the milk bottle, looking down at Xu Shiyue's figure beside her, her unease growing stronger: "When do you think my sister will wake up? Will she ever wake up again?"
Xu Shiyue asked in a calm voice, "Why do you think she won't wake up?"
Lu Shien paused for a moment.
As if grasping something, he turned to look at Xu Shiyue.
"I need a node."
As she spoke, Xu Shiyue looked at Lu Shien and invited him again, "So, are you going to help me this time?"
