Chapter 48 Jin Litong, you are calling for help!
Sure enough, she soon saw a golden figure wielding a greatsword.
But what is strange is that when all the fairies were hiding far away, there was a female fairy who suddenly rushed out and stood in front of Jin Litong regardless of her own safety.
"Stop, the flowers and plants in the fairyland are also alive. Everything has a soul. If you cut off the roots of the flowers, they will also feel pain."
The fairy was wearing a pink dress with floral patterns on the edges and had two strands of wavy rose-red hair hanging down in front of her chest. She was none other than Jasmine, one of the main characters.
Jasmine stretched out her hands, trying to stop Jin Litong's actions, "Please don't destroy the fairyland anymore. I believe you must have a heart full of compassion and love."
Jin Litong stopped swinging the sword, full of disbelief: "Do you believe that I have a heart? Everyone in the fairyland says that I have no heart. My heart is made of metal."
Jasmine was visibly relieved, "Of course your heart is not--"
“Hahahahahahaha…”
Before Jasmine could finish her words, a crisp laugh was heard.
"Jin Litong, what are you crazy about? What do you mean by heart or no heart? If you have a metal heart, then Huangshi has a stone heart. Don't you have any feelings?"
Duan Lingyi jumped off the flying boat and landed heavily on the ground. Against the light, it was hard to see the expression on her face.
"A Ling! Are you finally willing to see me?"
The moment Duan Lingyi appeared, Jin Litong was so excited that he could hardly control himself.
Ever since she moved to Huayan Mirror Palace, she has been staying in the smelting room. Even if Jin Litong wants to see her, he is always rejected.
"Ha, what nonsense are you talking about? I'm just too busy. Do you know how many weapons I have to forge in a day?"
Duan Lingyi raised her head with a confident and generous look, took a step forward and patted Jin Litong hard on the head.
"You're still wreaking havoc here, forcing me to come out and clean up your mess."
In front of Duan Lingyi, Jin Litong could not be arrogant at all.
Although he is now called the strongest god of war in the fairyland by many fairies, he instinctively feels that he will be beaten badly if he goes against Duan Lingyi, not to mention that he is reluctant to take action.
"But they all said I was a mad god of war, that I had no heart and would hurt all life, and they all rejected me."
Jin Lishi lowered his head, looking a little aggrieved.
Seeing Jin Litong's pitiful appearance, Duan Lingyi couldn't continue to be angry. She always responded to soft words rather than hard ones.
It's just that I really hate you for not being able to make the best of it. "Sometimes I really want to hit you with a hammer to wake you up. If you don't have a heart, how can you be in pain?"
"If you don't have a heart, then you should be ruthless and unrighteous instead of being a coward here!"
Jin Litong held his head in his hands, his face full of pain, "But if they are lying, then why can't I control my behavior of wantonly hurting lives?"
"Because you are fighting against other people's gossip."
"Since they say that about me, why don't I really become like what they say in the rumors? Is that what you think?"
Duan Lingyi seemed to see through everything.
"Perhaps you were indeed bewitched by the crazy growth of power at the beginning, but ask yourself, do you really have no reason at all?"
Jin Litong put down his hands that were hugging his head, his eyes were confused, and he was shaken.
Duan Lingyi bewitched Jin Litong with the most gentle tone in her life: "You are not a crazy war god, you are just resisting in the most extreme way, or in other words..."
"Jin Litong, you are asking for help."
"I'm asking for help? I'm here, asking for help!"
I don't know which sentence touched me, or maybe all of them. Jin Litong suddenly fell to his knees, tears streaming from his eyes uncontrollably, and sobbing sounds coming from his throat.
"Can a fairy like me really be saved?"
"Jin Litong, whether you can be saved does not depend on whether you are worthy of being saved, but whether you desire to be saved." Duan Lingyi squatted down and stared into Jin Litong's eyes, saying word by word.
If Jin Litong really had no reason at all at this moment and couldn't control himself, then why would he be moved by Jasmine's words and forcefully suppress his madness?
It would be better to say that he is now suffering from constant denial, just like Mandola in the past, and Jasmine's words have made him regain recognition.
Does he really love Jasmine?
Not necessarily. In Duan Lingyi's opinion, Jin Litong actually just wanted to find an anchor point for himself to suppress his madness.
No matter who it is, just open your mouth and say something, tell me that I have the heart, and then consider it as saving me.
Jin Litong was crying for help in his heart, but his hands were destroying things crazily.
No fairy wanted to believe that he was once the gentle and elegant Golden Prince, but now he was just a mad god of war.
And he himself was forced to change his personality under the erosion of immortal power.
Over and over again, in a cycle, perhaps it won't be long before he completely succumbs to power.
But just when he was about to fall into complete madness, Jasmine appeared.
Jasmine told him that she believed he had a heart, a heart full of compassion and love.
Just like a drowning person grabbing the last piece of driftwood, Jin Litong held on to Jasmine tightly.
'As long as there is one person who believes in me, I can deceive myself and I still have a chance.'
A person with a drowning man's mentality often makes unwise choices, usually because they are forced by the environment rather than what he wants.
At this moment, Jin Litong is such a drowning person. He may not love Jasmine, but he definitely needs Jasmine.
However, those who put everything on others usually don't end up well.
When the piece of driftwood is broken, the drowning person will fall into the abyss with no possibility of survival because he has lost the idea of saving himself.
Now, all Duan Lingyi has to do is replace Jasmine and become this drifting wood.
She had no intention of changing the status quo, or perhaps she was too compassionate and wanted to save Jin Litong. She just wanted Jin Litong to regard her as a life-saving straw.
Jin Litong in this state is the most advantageous to them, and he will do whatever Duan Lingyi asks him to do.
Why should we change it? We want this kind of obedience.
She was not a good person to begin with. On the contrary, she continued to strengthen Jin Litong's drowning mentality.
Constantly guiding the fairies to reject him, and then repeatedly telling him in his ear that she will always believe in him no matter what outsiders say. Isn't this a classic PUA tactic?
It doesn’t matter, even if no one approves of you, I will still approve of you.
It doesn’t matter, you are still the golden prince admired by everyone in the wonderland.
It’s okay, it’s okay…
Duan Lingyi had a gentle smile on her face. She gently helped Jin Litong, who was kneeling on the ground, and wiped the tears from his face.
Then—he raised the hammer and smashed it hard on him.
