"In other words, the price of making a wish is the Gospel. If you destroy the Gospel, you can also get a free wish... It's just a little short, it's really a pity."
After listening to Ash's retelling, An Nan showed a regretful expression, spread his hands and said: "In the end, I still failed and my plan fell through."
Yaxiu noticed the loneliness in her expression and suddenly remembered something: "An Nan, you..."
"It doesn't matter. If you go all in, you have to accept the loss." An Nan smiled and clapped his hands, saying, "But since Diyin can maintain her self-awareness, there's no need for us to leave, right? That's great. I heard that other countries are not as developed as Fuyin. If I end up in a primitive forest with a tribal system, I can't accept a significant drop in living standards—"
"Liz." Ash looked at Diya who was sitting on the throne and asked seriously, "Do you have a way to lift the curse of the gospel on the Dolan family?"
"The gospel curses the Dolan family?" Nona reacted immediately, and Qinna also looked at them: "What's going on?"
Diya looked at An Nan seriously, and felt the violent fluctuations in her soul. Her expression changed slightly: "Gospel is indeed full of disgust towards people with Duolan blood. If nothing is done, in a few years, Gospel's disgust will rise to a level that will affect the Gospel system, and it will not stop interfering until the Duolan people disappear completely."
It was the first time that the Sennheiser sisters heard about this, and Nona was stunned. The fact that she was "rejected by the gospel" was so beyond imagination and so terrifying that her computer crashed - can you imagine someone being hated by the sun, rejected by water, and avoided by the air?
Qinna suddenly came over and half-knelt in front of Diya, and asked respectfully: "How many points do I need to spend to reduce Fuyin's dislike for Duolan?"
"Qina!" An Nan reached out and grabbed the elf leader's shoulders, trying to pull her up: "Does it make sense for you to pretend like this in front of me?"
Qinna didn't move at all. How could a mere two-winged magician pull her? She said calmly, "Now that the weaving ceremony is over, according to the contract, you are no longer Annan Dolan, but Annan Senheiser. You will have to return to Senheiser to live in the future. The Six Emblems will not abandon any of their people."
"Family, family, family again!" An Nan taunted, "Then if you cancel the contract with me now, I will still be Duolan's An Nan, and I don't need you to waste family assets to save an outsider."
Nona couldn't help but said: "Xiao An Nan, sister, can you..."
Seeing them quarreling, Diya was a little hesitant at first, but when she saw the reluctance, pity and determination in Yaxiu's eyes, she immediately said: "I can suppress Fuyin's hatred for Duolan, but I have a condition!"
An Nan was startled and immediately asked, "What are the conditions?"
She had already made up her mind to sit and wait for death - although there was still the option of escaping from the Gospel, the previous Duolan family heads had never escaped from the Gospel, so she naturally would not do so. If she really wanted to escape from the Gospel and live in disgrace, she would not have to wait outside the virtual realm passage to capture Ash and the other two, but could have directly passed through the virtual realm passage to reach another country.
She did not escape from Gospel. Her primary worry was, of course, that even if she successfully reached other kingdoms, she would most likely be treated as a foreign pioneer and hunted down by local forces, just like the treatment that Ash and the others received when they first arrived in Gospel. She might even die sooner than if she had stayed in Gospel.
But apart from that, the real reason why Annan was willing to be buried in the gospel was because she had a strong sense of gospel pride.
Some people may wonder, since you are proud of the gospel, why do you try every means to seize the Lord's wish to destroy it? But how much resentment Annan has for the gospel now, she was just as proud of it when she first came into contact with it. Although breaking the family curse is Annan's driving force, destroying this system and reconstructing a new future is also Annan's lifelong ideal.
The gospel masters of all generations have almost the same idea - it is because they love the gospel so much that they blaspheme it.
Therefore, after the plan to assassinate the princess completely failed, An Nan, whose ideals were shattered, had already lost all hope. Although Di Yin later protected them and arranged for them to flee to other countries to avoid persecution, if it were not for Panji and Yaxiu, she would never agree to leave Gospel.
Now that Diyin can maintain her self-awareness, there is no need for Ash and Panty to leave. Naturally, she does not want to escape to another country alone and fend for herself. She might as well enjoy the rest of her time.
So, when Diyin said that she could suppress Fuyin's disgust and break Duolan's curse, new hope was rekindled in An Nan's heart.
It's not just because she can survive, but also because she sees the possibility of realizing her ideals in Diyin!
"I want you to cancel your contract with Ash." Diya glanced at Igula and Harvey, and added: "As well as the contract between Aunt Borgin and Uncle Harvey."
"no problem."
An Nan agreed directly. With her reward, the "Tongue of Liberation", she could verbally terminate the contract as long as both parties reached an agreement. After the contract was terminated, she approached Diya and asked seriously, "Can you really suppress the malice of Fuyin?"
Diya nodded: "Yes, the malice of the Gospel towards Duolan is actually a negative impact on the operation of the Gospel system. As long as I require the Gospel system to operate normally, it will naturally not target the Duolan tribe."
"Besides that, can you exert more influence on the gospel system?" An Nan's eyes lit up. "For example, reduce the impact of the gospel on personal life and give individuals more choices; split up the consortium families. Families like Beldette, Six Emblems, Mercury, and Keshiri should have been regulated long ago..."
"An Nan, you big moth!"
"Annan, don't forget that you are also a member of the Senheiser tribe now!"
Qinna and Yifalin felt a chill in their hearts and hurried over to interrupt Annan's slander, citing classics to illustrate how the Six Emblems and Beldette were too big to fail.
It was only at this time that Ash and the others belatedly realized a problem - in the entire Issu Dynasty, and perhaps in the more than a thousand years since the birth of the Gospel system, the first empress with strong emotional tendencies was born.
Although she is willing to give up what may be the only wish-making opportunity in her life for the sake of the gospel of sentient beings, this does not mean that she is a completely fair and just saint. On the contrary, she is definitely a girl with a temper, who has people she dislikes and people she likes, and is even very emotional.
If the first gospel in the past was a ruthless blade hanging over the heads of all living beings, then the sound of the flute is everyone's nightmare or opportunity that is close at hand - if she hates you, you might even step on a banana peel and fall down while walking; but if she likes you, even if you fall down, there will always be an unlucky guy to fall down on you!
Thunder, lightning, rain and dew are all grace from the Lord!
The order of the flute is the fate of all living beings!
Even if she could only shake out a speck of dust from the gospel system, it would be like a mountain on anyone's head!
No wonder Qinna and Yifalin were so nervous - if Diyin really believed Annan's slander and said "The weather is cold, and Six Emblems/Beldette will go bankrupt", then no one can save them.
Thinking of this, Igula couldn't help but glance at Ash next to him. If Diyin was the supreme Queen of Gospel, then Ash was at least the most powerful jester in the court. It was even more serious to offend him than to offend Diyin - after all, Diyin couldn't leave the palace, while Ash was a mobile disaster that could move around.
He is truly 'below the sound of the flute, above all living beings'!
Compared to the Doomsday Disaster, the current Ash is the real "source of disaster".
Anyone who offends him will experience the feeling of being an enemy of the whole gospel.
However, Ash obviously had no awareness of his rising status. He greeted Harvey and asked curiously, "Why do you seem to have lost weight?"
"Lose weight." Harvey laughed, "I transferred the fat to others."
Igula turned pale when he heard this. Ash was a little confused, but his attention was quickly diverted by the baby carriage in front of him.
He squatted down and looked at the blue-haired baby in the stroller. He hesitated and asked, "Is this Panji? Why did it become so small this time? Last time, at least he could walk by himself. Now... can he turn over by himself?"
"He overused miracles."
An Nan came over and squatted beside him, saying, "This is the first time I've seen Panti in his old age... He became like this after the melting miracle. This is also the first time I've seen Panti in his baby form."
"How long will it take for him to recover this time?" Ash asked. "It took two days for the last children's pancake to recover. Will it take a week this time?"
"It will take seventeen years."
"Seventeen...years?" Ash was stunned, suspecting that he had heard the time unit wrong.
"He has completely melted himself." An Nan stretched out his fingers to tease Xiao Banji, who stretched out his fingers to hold An Nan's fingers, making a babbling sound: "He can no longer recover. He can only go through infancy, childhood, adolescence, and adulthood again like a baby."
"What about his memory?"
"It may be restored, but a lot will definitely be lost." An Nan shrugged: "When he encounters people, things and objects from the past, he will definitely have a lot of déjà vu."
Ash stared at Little Banji, then suddenly smiled and said, "Then it's your turn to take care of him this time."
"Yes, Duolan owes Banji too much." An Nan carefully picked up Banji. "I was worried that it would be difficult to take care of him in another country. Now that he can stay here, at least he has a stable environment to grow up in."
Little Banji struggled to get out of Annan's arms, and Yaxiu chuckled, stretched out his hand to take Little Banji, and let Little Banji lie on his arm. Little Banji immediately stopped moving, and his legs hung beside his hand, observing the surroundings curiously.
"Hey?" An Nan blinked: "Can I hold it like this? Won't it fall off?"
"This is called an airplane hold. It's quite stable and can effectively relieve bloating and crying."
"Why are you so skilled?"
Recalling that he used to help hold his crying nephew when he returned home, Ash smiled knowingly: "I used to take care of children."
An Nan looked at him taking care of the little Banji. She, who was always proactive and decisive, suddenly became shy and stammered, "Bai, now that the weaving festival is over, well, I'm not very good at taking care of babies, Ash, you——"
Suddenly, Ash's Gospel popped out by itself, emitting a bright green light.
Everyone was startled, thinking that the weaving ceremony was not over yet. However, when they looked carefully, they found that their gospel books were not moving.
Swish!
The next second, countless vines sprouted from Ash's Gospel!
