Chapter 240 The Last Chance (Finale)
In the darkness, Wen Ling didn't know whether she was awake or unconscious, or alive or dead.
She vaguely saw a bright light ahead and walked forward almost instinctively.
When she walked into the light, she saw her master.
The master who enlightened her and transformed her from a ball of spiritual energy into a spirit of words in modern times.
Wen Ling probably knows his other identity now. He should have another powerful identity, which is the Heavenly Dao of this world.
But now seeing Tian Dao here, Wen Ling had a bad feeling in her heart. The first thing she said was: "It's over. Seeing you again, it seems that I'm probably dead."
The old man Tiandao stroked his beard and smiled amiably, as if he was just an ordinary kind elder: "You are still so direct, kid. How come you don't miss your master after such a long time?"
Wen Ling asked back very seriously: "Although you are my master, but then again, who would live well and want to see God?"
The old man Tiandao laughed again.
"Let's get back to the point," Wen Ling said seriously, "What on earth is going on? Am I dead or alive? Where is Gu Chenran? If I die, he must be dead too. Where did you take him?"
"Also, you are the Heavenly Dao, you must have the ability to stop these things from happening, why don't you take any action and let these things happen?"
Wen Ling was full of questions again.
Because looking at the whole thing, she was truly innocent. How could such an unexpected disaster be described in just one word: tragic?
The old man Tiandao also knew that it was almost time to reveal the mystery.
He stroked his beard and said seriously, "In fact, the world is just like people. It has its own disasters. From thousands of years ago to now, our world is destined to have two disasters.
Even if I kill Gu Yu with a bolt of lightning, there will be other disasters that I can't imagine. Maybe those disasters will catch me off guard, and the world will be destroyed without a chance to breathe.
But I also calculated that you would be the only variable in these two catastrophes, so what I need to do is not to interfere with you, and then to protect your soul in the end.
It turns out that you didn't let me down, you did everything well.
Now these two catastrophes of heaven and earth have officially passed, and the next catastrophe should be a thousand years later. ”
Wen Ling: “…”
I understand. After all, she is a tool chosen by heaven.
People really laugh when they are completely speechless.
For example, Wen Ling smiled now. She asked again, "So, now that the catastrophe is over, you are relieved. Now that I am dead, will you throw me into another world to be a word spirit, and then raise me again, and have to start all over again?"
"That's not the case." The old man Tiandao also knew that if he dared to say yes, Wen Ling would definitely pounce on him with bare teeth and bite him.
The old man of the Heavenly Dao said, "You have saved the world from catastrophe twice, so you will naturally be rewarded with merits. The merits you have received are enough for you to ascend to heaven right now. When you arrive in that world, after undergoing training and assessment, you can go to other worlds to become the Heavenly Dao, just like me."
This reward is extremely huge, and I have always thought that it is Wen Ling’s dream.
But now when it was placed directly in front of her, Wen Ling remained silent.
She was silent for a while and then asked, "What about Gu Chenran? He died to save me, I can't just abandon him like this."
The old man Tiandao stretched out his second finger and said, "So, now I have another choice for you. That is to use all the merits you gained from predicting the future in another world and in Dayong.
In exchange for the resurrection of both you and Gu Chenran, but at the same time you also lose the chance to ascend.
Your cultivation level will return to the level when you first arrived in Dayong, and you will have to start practicing again.
It's just that Gu Chenran can practice with you this time, and you both only have a lifespan of a hundred years in the human world.
If one cannot accumulate enough merit to achieve immortality within the hundred years of life on earth, there will never be another opportunity for this. ”
Wen Ling understood.
She now has so much merit, which can be used to allow her to ascend directly now, or she can be used to resurrect her and Gu Chenran and start over.
This time, Wen Ling did not remain silent for as long as before.
She just paused for a moment after the old man Tiandao finished speaking, and then said firmly: "Then I choose the second option. Okay, no need to say more, come on, revive me and Gu Chenran."
An understanding look appeared on the old man Tiandao's face, as if he had guessed that she would make this choice.
He just flicked his fingertips towards Wen Ling through the air, and Wen Ling fell from a height of thousands of feet.
"Go back. I hope to see you again in a hundred years. We can still be colleagues."
…
Wen Ling only felt a moment of weightlessness. She suddenly opened her eyes and found that she was lying in the familiar Prince Chen's Mansion.
She got up and ran to Gu Chenran's yard. When Tingyin and Xiaofa saw that she was awake, they both shouted sharply: "Madam is awake, Madam is awake!!"
Amid the screams of groundhogs, Wen Ling came to Gu Chenran's yard and saw Gu Chenran lying on the bed, wrapped like a mummy.
Almost at the moment Wen Ling pushed the door open, Gu Chenran opened his eyes.
Their eyes met and Wen Ling laughed out loud.
Gu Chenran's head, which was wrapped tightly, could still open a pair of clear black and white eyes, which was really funny.
It is said that the underground palace over there was completely destroyed by their fight.
Lu Jian, who was guarding outside, saw that the underground palace was about to collapse and he could go in again, so he rushed in and rescued Wen Ling and Gu Chenran.
Both of them were blown so black in the explosion that their faces were almost unrecognizable.
Green Sword rescued the two people with the belief that he would bring them out even if they were corpses.
He couldn't carry two people by himself, and it was the rescued girls who were preparing to be goddesses who helped carry Wen Ling and finally they escaped from the underground palace.
After escaping from the Moon Kingdom's underground palace, the second prince also ascended the throne.
The second prince was a smart man. He wanted to make friends with the Dayong Dynasty, so he sent the best wizard to treat them carefully, and also sent a team of people to escort Wen Ling and Gu Chenran back to the Dayong Dynasty safely.
After returning, Wen Ling and Gu Chenran remained in a coma.
He was in a coma for a year and showed no signs of waking up.
The emperor was so anxious that he looked visibly older within a year.
Just when everyone thought that Gu Chenran and Wen Ling would never wake up again and the emperor wanted to force Prince Qi to become emperor, Wen Ling and Gu Chenran miraculously woke up suddenly.
Later, Gu Chenran recovered quickly. Wen Ling and Gu Chenran soon returned to the court to serve and devoted themselves to their respective work.
Finally, the emperor, who lived three years longer than in Gu Chenran’s dream, never woke up again on a snowy winter morning.
He spent the last moments of his life in his sleep and died.
He passed away peacefully and at ease, without any worries or regrets.
In the same year, Gu Chenran ascended the throne and Wen Ling was crowned queen.
The emperor and empress were deeply in love, and the emperor never took any concubines.
The emperor and empress were dedicated to the people. They reigned for eighty years and made countless construction projects for Dayong. They led the people through the twenty-year period of the Little Ice Age and the sixty-year period of national prosperity.
Finally, on the day of Empress Ling’s 100th birthday, everyone saw with their own eyes that the emperor and the empress were filled with golden light, and they waved goodbye to them on auspicious clouds and ascended to heaven.
