There was a flash in the void, and the purple light turned into a stream and disappeared silently.
…
After leaving the Hopeless Sea, Su Yao turned into a stream of light, crossed the boundary wall, and headed straight for the Penglai Fairyland.
On the top of Penglai, the Temple of Qi.
This temple, standing in the void with silver light flowing, has been home to only one god for a hundred thousand years.
God of the Bright Moon: The Moon Never Returns.
Su Yao slowly walked up the steps where divine light was flowing.
The door of the Qi Temple opened automatically, and a moon-like figure emerged from the silver light.
He is extraordinarily handsome, his robe is as white as snow, his eyebrows and eyes are gentle, and his posture is as calm as mountains and rivers.
Yue Bugui stared at her, his tone revealing an undisguised complaint: "Finally you're willing to come and see me."
Su Yao stopped and said in a calm tone, "I didn't come to see you because I didn't want to come back to work."
Yue Bugui shook his head and smiled helplessly: "It's still so out of tune."
The corners of her lips curved slightly, but she did not deny it.
He glanced at her and asked directly, "Tell me, what brings you to me this time?"
Su Yao restrained his smile and asked seriously, "Do you know who my parents are?"
The hall was silent for a moment.
Yue Bugui did not answer immediately, but only whispered: "Aren't you the eldest daughter of the Su family?"
Su Yao sneered: "You know that's not what I'm asking."
He was silent for a moment, then turned and walked towards the jade steps in front of the throne, his back lengthened in the flowing moonlight.
"You just came from...the Hopeless Sea?"
"Yeah." She didn't deny it.
Yue Bugui sighed softly, and finally turned around, looked at her and said, "Since you asked, I will tell you."
"You are a descendant of the ancient dragon clan."
Su Yao's eyes were shocked, but he didn't say anything.
"Your mother's name is Long Yanxi, a descendant of the royal bloodline of the Divine Dragon Clan." Yue Bugui's voice was slow and clear. "But at the end of the Three Realms War, she formed an ill-fated relationship with a mortal and gave birth to you."
"Marriage between the gods and humans is forbidden. This is a death penalty."
"On the day you were born, the Shenlong Clan imprisoned her in the Forbidden Dragon Bone Land as punishment, and you were abandoned on the streets, leaving your fate to fate."
"They want to follow the natural process of human survival of the fittest and wait for you to die out on your own."
Su Yao spoke slowly, his voice calm: "It's a pity that I survived."
"Not only did you survive, but you also survived and made them shut up." Yue Bugui glanced at her with a complicated look in his eyes.
"You start out as a beggar, saving lives and learning medicine to accumulate merit. As you embark on the path of cultivation, the dragon bloodline within you gradually awakens."
"You are the daughter of the human god."
"The only one in this world who has awakened the bloodline of the gods with human will."
Su Yao said nothing and listened quietly.
"The reason the Demon God is trapped in the Hopeless Sea and unable to move is because the Dragon Clan has guarded the seal for generations."
"Thousands of years ago, when you perished as a god of the Three Realms, it was your mother, Long Yanxi, who sacrificed herself to the heavens to strengthen the seal for you."
"You had already perished as a demigod by then, and the Demon God was ready to make a move, but due to the Yanxi Sacrifice, he remained silent for another thousand years."
"Now that you have returned with a reshaped soul, the seal has loosened."
Su Yao looked up: "Wen Wushang has left the Demon Realm, and the Nine Netherworld has been completely sealed by me. Why hasn't the Demon God given up yet?"
Yue Bugui's expression was gloomy: "Because he found the other half of your blood."
"Nan Xingchen."
Su Yao was silent.
"You and him were childhood friends in your previous life, meeting each other in humble circumstances. Nan Xingchen died saving you, and with your unresolved obsession, you used a forbidden technique... to infuse half of your divine blood into his body."
"From that moment on, he became an immortal, indestructible being."
"He has your divine blood in his body, so he naturally becomes the most perfect substitute for the demon in the eyes of the demon god."
"You and he are the two keys to the devil's escape."
Su Yao said in a low voice: "So...I gave him the opportunity."
Yue Bugui walked over slowly, looking at her gently, as if he was looking at a stubborn daughter.
"You're just too kind."
"Back then, you would rather accept divine punishment than see him die. Now..."
"You have to make the decision."
Su Yao said nothing.
Yue Bugui sighed and said, "Nan Xingchen can still be saved. He may not really be willing to fall into the devil, but at least he doesn't really want to kill you."
"If you can bring him back to his senses, Nan Xingchen and Su Wentian might be able to... defend the Three Realms together."
His voice suddenly paused.
Su Yao noticed something strange and looked up suddenly: "Your breath... is fading."
Yue Bugui smiled slightly: "This divine body has lasted too long, only a remnant of the soul remains, waiting for you to come."
He raised his hand, and a silver light turned into a divine seal, gently imprinting it on her brow.
"The fragment of divine consciousness you have awakened contains a portion of my divine power."
"I have guarded it for a thousand years. It is time... to hand it over to you."
As soon as he finished speaking, the moonlight bloomed, and his figure turned into thousands of stars and returned to the vast universe.
Su Yao stood there for a long time without moving.
She knew that from this moment on, she would be the new guardian of the Three Realms.
