Avril, standing to the side, looked at Xu Xiwang with a mischievous smile on her lips.
Xu Xiwang sensed that the atmosphere around him was different. He suddenly opened his eyes and found that the scene around him had completely changed.
The original stone pillars have disappeared, replaced by a starless sky and a vast universe, as well as a magnificent palace.
A vibrant energy emanated from the palace.
Xu Xiwang felt a surge of excitement as he sensed this vitality.
Xu Xiwang's figure slowly floated down outside the palace, which was carved with intricate totems.
Xu Xiwang slowly raised his palm and pressed it against the palace door.
"Boom..."
The heavy, ancient gate opened.
A soft radiance poured out, bathing Xu Xiwang's entire body in its glow.
A delicate fragrance wafts out on the breeze, lingering around the nose.
Upon entering the temple, Xu Xiwang finally understood why it was called the Temple of Life.
Every inch of the floor here is made of pure divine crystal, inlaid with all kinds of gemstones, dazzling and sparkling with brilliant light.
There is a staircase in the temple leading to the top floor.
"What are you staring at? Are you stunned?"
Avril nudged Xu Xiwang with her elbow, "Let's go."
Who exactly are you?
Xu Xiwang took a deep breath and asked.
"Of course I'm Avril."
Avril blinked, looking completely innocent.
"That's not what I'm asking. How do you know so much about what's going on here?"
Xu Xiwang looked calmly at Avril and said, word by word.
Upon hearing this, Avril pouted and muttered in dissatisfaction, "What an idiot."
"You brought me here on purpose, didn't you?"
Xu Xiwang stared at Avril.
Avril lowered her eyes. "It was a chance encounter."
Xu Xiwang didn't speak, but just quietly watched Avril.
Avril bit her lip. "Why are you staring at me like that?"
Xu Xiwang withdrew her gaze. "You deliberately ran into me. Even when I told you this was a spirit fruit, you didn't seem surprised at all. You seem to know everything about the Temple of Life. Should I call you Avril or Tina?"
"Well."
Avril scratched her head.
But in an instant, her figure disappeared from the palace and appeared on the temple.
At the top of the temple, a woman dressed in a white gauze dress sat cross-legged on a futon. The woman was extremely beautiful, with a head of smooth, black hair that cascaded down like a waterfall, and her fair skin was so delicate it seemed to break at a touch.
Xu Xiwang's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
"Whether it's Tina or Avril, they are both me!"
Tina spoke softly, her voice as melodious and pleasant as celestial music.
"I wonder why Goddess Tina appeared beside me in her avatar?"
"I sensed a trace of Apollo's power in you. I thought it was Apollo in disguise, but I didn't expect you to be such an interesting little fellow. You actually managed to comprehend the concept of living towards death and dying towards life."
Tina held the spirit fruit Xu Xiwang had given her, gently swaying it in her hand.
Xu Xiwang pondered for a moment before asking, "Since Goddess Tina has been observing me all this way, could you help me save someone?"
Tina stopped chewing and looked at Xu Xiwang, "The price for me to take action is very high."
"I'm willing to pay any price to save her life."
"Heh~"
Tina chuckled twice, then shook her head and sighed, "Everyone says that, but when it really comes down to making a decision, they hesitate and dare not take that step. I really don't know what's going on in the heads of you mortals."
You have to tell me why first.
Tina's eyes revealed shrewdness, as if she could see through Xu Xiwang's inner world.
"she......"
Xu Xiwang hesitated, "She's very important to me."
After saying that, he carried Ning Hanshuang's body out.
Ning Hanshuang's life force was almost gone. Her face was pale, her breath was weak, her cheeks were thin and dehydrated, her muscles were sunken, and her bones were clearly visible.
Tina narrowed her eyes, looking at Xu Xiwang, "Were you injured by the Ghost Clan?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Xiwang felt as if his heart had suddenly stopped beating.
His hand trembled as he stroked Ning Hanshuang's cheek, tears streaming down his face.
"Can it be saved?"
"Of course."
"Then please save her!"
"You should know my rules: you have to give up your most precious possession in exchange."
"Can!"
Xu Xiwang nodded in agreement without hesitation.
What do you consider most precious to you?
Tina asked with great interest.
"My life."
Xu Xiwang raised his eyes and stared intently at Tina.
Tina's pupils contracted sharply; she hadn't expected Xu Xiwang to exchange his own life for it.
"You're funny."
A complex look flickered in Tina's eyes. "You need to understand, a person only has one life. Is it worth risking your own life to save a girl?"
"worth."
Xu hoped to make a firm decision regarding the railway.
