Chapter 74 Honesty and Integrity
"I need to have a serious talk with you," Yu Shan said sternly, pushing away the man whose gaze was burning with desire.
Xiao Bai was a little surprised. In the past, she would be as soft as a pool of autumn water at times like this, letting him mold her however he wanted.
Today is a long-awaited reunion, so why would she talk about serious matters with him at such a critical time?
"Fan, did you wake up and find that we've arrived in another star system, so you feel uneasy and want to go back to Algae Star?"
"Don't worry, once I've dealt with the Hua Jing family and vented my anger, I'll leave Silverwing Star sooner or later." Xiao Bai said, hugging her even tighter.
"No. But what I'm about to say might be hard for you to accept right now. First, I'd like to ask you a question."
"If I suddenly had another person's entire life's memories in my mind, would you think I'd been... possessed?" Yu Shan stared at him intently as she asked.
"What does 'possession' mean?" Xiaobai asked.
"It's just that... what's inside Zuo Shan's body now might be someone else's soul, while the real Zuo Shan might already be dead." Yu Shan's palms started sweating with nervousness.
She originally wanted to keep it a secret, but this man was, after all, her partner, and it was too difficult to be constantly on guard against the person next to her in bed.
Moreover, she used the Holy Witch Clan's magic seal in the previous battle, and unless this man is an idiot, he should be able to see the problem.
"I don't believe your so-called possession. Although you have lost Zuo Shan's memories, the love and worry in your eyes when you look at your son are exactly the same as Cong Qiang's."
And your captivating voice when we went to Wushan; your instinctive protection of the baby in your womb when you were lost in passion.
While I was fighting that super zombie king, you summoned Wanwan and together with it, did everything in your power to help me destroy it!
Even if I, as a human, cannot distinguish whether you are real or fake, Wanwan and Xiaobaobao are respectively Zuo Shan's contracted alien plant and her biological beast whom she raised with the affection of a sibling. They cannot possibly mistake another soul for Zuo Shan.
I know that you suffered a huge backlash this time for using time reversal, and I am prepared to bear everything.
Rather than losing you, I would not only gladly accept a version of you with amnesia, but also be grateful to God for the memory of another version of you from a parallel universe.
It was because of its kindness that I was able to get it back, and I am willing to give anything for it!
During your coma and critical moments, I resented God countless times for letting you awaken such a deadly skill.
If you are just an ordinary superhuman, even if the entire Green Algae Star is about to be destroyed, you don't need to bear any of this burden!
So, fan, you don't need to bother yourself with such meaningless questions anymore.
Today I solemnly promise you: from the moment you sacrificed yourself to save Algae Planet, I made a decision, and from now on I will live only for you!
If this promise had a time limit, it would be for all eternity!
Although vows are not always reliable, Yu Shan decided to trust him this once, considering that this man was willing to cross galaxies and leave his homeland for her.
"In that case, I've decided to tell you who I am."
The place I originally lived in was called the Misty Heavenly Realm. Four major races lived there: the Holy Witch Clan, the Skywing Clan, the Illusionary Spirit Clan, and the God Clan.
My name is Yu Shan, and I am the Holy Maiden of the Holy Witch Clan.
In our Holy Witch Clan, the Holy Maiden is highly respected by the clan members, and all important matters of the clan are decided by the Holy Maiden.
The Holy Maiden possesses the highest power and the most honorable status, while also bearing the responsibility for the rise and fall of the Holy Witch Clan.
I witnessed a catastrophe that wiped out our clan. Our Holy Witch Clan's territory was annihilated by the rolling lava erupting from the earth, and our clan members were almost all killed or injured.
Knowing full well that I would suffer the backlash of Heaven, I still resolutely used the heaven-defying time reversal technique to lead my people to escape our territory before the eruption of the earth fire, thus avoiding the annihilation of our clan.
Under the backlash of Heaven's will, I should have been reduced to ashes, but the elders of the clan discovered that I was suffering from the backlash, and the second elder divined my life-or-death calamity.
The entire clan, young and old, willingly gave up half of their life force, and even used our clan's sacred artifact, the Sky-Covering Stone, to temporarily obscure the heavens and preserve my soul.
But my body couldn't escape this calamity and completely dissipated.
After their life force is drained by half, the tribespeople will no longer be able to use their magical power and will become no different from ordinary people.
It would be extremely difficult for such a race to survive in a world like the Misty Heaven Realm.
The elders could only lead their people to hide in extremely remote places, where they lived a life of hunger and deprivation.
However, the Sky-Covering Stone, which obscures the secrets of heaven, requires a large amount of life force to maintain when in use. Even if the people of the tribe sacrifice their lives, it will be of no use if they want to use the Sky-Covering Stone for a long time.
Left with no other choice, the four elders decided to join forces to cast a spacetime teleportation array to transfer my soul to an unknown universe. Only in this way could they escape the backlash from the Heavenly Dao of the Misty Heavenly Realm.
I don't know what I've been through, but one thing is certain: no matter how many hardships and obstacles lie ahead, I will return to the Misty Heaven to rescue my people who are suffering because of me.
Yu Shan's words shocked Xiao Bai so much that he couldn't speak. He couldn't believe it was all true, but he had no choice but to believe it.
Before she fell into a coma, Shanzi was just an ordinary speed-based ability user. Her only difference was that she had awakened the incredible time-reversal skill.
But this skill is not something an ordinary superhuman could possess, unless she truly possesses the bloodline of the Holy Witch Clan from that distant and mysterious galaxy.
This led him to think of some of the fan's extraordinary qualities. For example, even though she was just an orphan from District 50, she was able to attract a very special iron-eating beast cub like Xiao Bao, making it follow her willingly.
For example, she went to District 46 to pick some small moonflowers and formed a contract with the mutated plant Wanwan, even though she hadn't awakened any special abilities at that time and was just an ordinary person.
For example, when she, an ordinary person, became pregnant, the baby in her womb, Chen, awakened his supernatural abilities early on and even learned to conceal his aura so that no one would notice.
Looking back now, perhaps Ah Chen was able to attract the fathead fish, this mythical beast cub, because she inherited her Holy Witch Clan bloodline.
Otherwise, how could an ordinary baby with superpowers attract a mythical beast cub?
All the good fortune he had in the past, which he thought had nothing to do with her, may actually have originated from her soul and bloodline.
So, has he hooked up with a high and mighty goddess?
"Fan, will you abandon me and the children just because your bloodline is noble?" After a long silence, Xiaobai suddenly asked this question, which was completely devoid of confidence.
