"Liao Liao, I heard from Chu Yu that you've been like this for several days now."
"Liao Liao, be a good girl and stretch out your hand so I can see it."
No matter how the goddess Xiyue tried to persuade her, Hua remained unresponsive, hugging her knees and burying her head in her arms. She had been like this for several days since that night.
Chu Yu tried every possible method but failed to get Hua to treat the injury on her arm. In the end, having no other choice, he had to invite the busy goddess Xi Yue to come over.
Having no parents, Hua had many secrets she couldn't easily share with Chu Yu and the others, so she often confided in the goddess Xi Yue. Therefore, besides Chu Yu, Xi Yue was Hua's closest confidante since childhood.
For Hua, the goddess Xiyue was both a teacher and a mother. Chu Yu thought that Hua should be able to listen to some of her words.
He gently pulled the flowers into his arms. "Liao Liao, you must know that everyone has their own destiny. Even as gods, we cannot interfere with it, let alone try to change it."
Hua looked up at the Goddess Xiyue with red, swollen eyes, her voice hoarse from crying so much these past few days, "Goddess Xiyue, Xiaolian is gone, and Sister Wanke is gone too..."
"Liao Liao, I know you're feeling bad, but the deceased are gone, and we who are alive need to live well so that they can rest in peace."
Just like when she was little, she gently patted Xiaohua's shoulder again and again. Gradually, the movements in her arms became quieter and quieter. Xiyue Shangshen carefully looked over and saw that Xiaohua was asleep with tears streaming down her face.
She then gestured for Chu Yu to come in. After Chu Yu came in, she carefully rolled up her flowery sleeves and had Chu Yu apply the medicine. The two then went out.
"Chu Yu, after what happened with Wan Ke, Liao Liao should have noticed something. There's a lot of talk about it outside. Xiao Hua is so smart, I'm afraid... she can't hide it for long."
Chu Yu was well aware of this, but even if the entire Six Realms knew about it, as long as she remained unaware, he could resolve the matter.
Late that night, Chu Yu watched as Hua applied the medicine and stayed by her side for a while before leaving. He didn't notice that shortly after he left, Hua also left.
She slipped past the camp guards and quietly made her way to the outer perimeter; there were some things she wanted to confirm...
When they reached a deserted place, the golden lotus mark between Hua's brows gradually appeared. Looking at the resentful spirits around her who dared not approach, Hua took the initiative to reach out and touch them.
Sure enough, those things disappeared as soon as she touched them, and all the resentment in her path dissipated automatically. Although Hua had suspected something was wrong, she couldn't help but be shocked at this moment.
So, so, she wasn't the Nine-Colored Lotus at all; she was the Pure Lotus that the Six Realms had been searching for.
It turns out that Chu Yu wasn't unaware of where the Pure World Lotus was.
He knows!
He always knew!
She thought of the seal that had existed since she could remember.
That seal was personally placed by the God of Qingfeng.
Perhaps, from beginning to end, they all knew,
Or perhaps it wasn't just them,
Thinking about what I've heard recently,
Perhaps, only she herself knows now...
After that night, it was as if nothing had happened. However, Hua became even more attached to Chu Yu, almost inseparable from him.
For Chu Yu, this was naturally a good thing. Right now, everyone outside was eyeing Hua covetously. Even with their divine clan keeping an eye on things, he was still afraid of making a mistake. It was best that Liao Liao could stay by his side like this.
"Chu Yu, I heard that Immortal Venerable Feng Li of the Immortal Clan was injured yesterday?"
"Well, but whether it's a real injury or a fake one is unknown."
Chu Yu didn't want to believe that the old man would get injured so easily; who knows what he was up to!
Hua walked around the coffee table next to Chu Yu and leaned close to him. "Chu Yu, I don't want anything to happen to you."
"I'll be fine. Although I've gone to the front lines, I'm with Qingfeng and the others. But you, you must take good care of yourself!"
Hua used to love how much Chu Yu cared for her, but now...
"Okay, I'll take good care of myself. At worst, I'll just have to bleed myself out."
Hua's playful voice did not reassure Chu Yu. He looked at the scars on Hua's arm with a pained expression. "Liao Liao, as long as you stay in the barrier set up for you by the God of Qingfeng, nothing will happen to you."
Chu Yu stared intently at the flower, waiting for her to personally assure him.
"Oh, nothing will happen, Chu Yu, don't worry about it."
"You go ahead with your work, I'm heading back now."
Hua avoided Chu Yu's gaze and walked outside.
Chu Yu, I'm afraid I can't agree to this one thing...
The next day,
"Little Flower, as long as you don't go out, no one can break this barrier. Don't be too playful."
"Don't worry, Qingfeng Shangshen, I'll stay here. Besides, I'll stay in my room. I can even sleep if I get bored."
Hua looked at Chu Yu with a smile on her face, "Chu Yu, I'm waiting for you to come back."
"good."
Finally, he took one last deep look at the fading smile, turned around, and strode out.
Liao Liao, wait for me.
Once everything is over, we'll return to the realm of the gods!
Hua Cai only looked away after he could no longer see Chu Yu and the others. The smile on his face gradually disappeared, replaced by a resolute expression.
As soon as Chu Yu stood still, the Immortal Emperor beside him deliberately said, "The solution is right in front of us, but we just can't use it!"
Chu Yu initially didn't want to get involved, but he underestimated human nature...
The Immortal Emperor's words were like a signal; as soon as he spoke, a chorus of agreement immediately arose from the surrounding crowd.
"That's right! The Pure Lotus is right in front of us, yet they still send us to our deaths!"
"God, you protect us, but we are also your people!"
"You are also our chief god!"
"Why would you disregard the lives and deaths of all beings in the six realms for the sake of one person?!"
"Yeah, yeah, it would have been better if only she had died, why did we have to lose our lives in vain!"
......
Suddenly, without any warning, the Merciful Sword delivered a series of fatal blows to the throats of several of the loudest voices, and the scene fell into complete silence...
Everyone stared at Chu Yu, who slowly and methodically wiped the blood from the Merciful Sword. Only after cleaning it did he look at them.
"What do you mean, 'as long as she's dead, that's all that matters'?"
Who do you think you are?
"What does your life or death have to do with her?"
After saying that, she turned directly to the Immortal Emperor, her eyes cold, and said without any politeness, "You are incompetent and cowardly, and you actually want to use the sacrifice of a woman to exchange for your survival. You have truly learned the selfish, despicable and shameless ways of your Immortal Clan to the fullest extent!"
