Unlike Sheng Ning, who always wore moon-white clan robes before.
Now, Sheng Ning is dressed in a red battle armor, and even his once slightly childish face now shows a touch of heroism.
Under her control, the enormous talisman landed on the crack in the Heavenly Pillar, sealing off a large amount of leaking spiritual energy, although the talisman could only seal it off for a short time.
But that's enough to give us a breather.
Upon seeing Sheng Ning finally wake up, Su Daiyuan and the others were naturally excited.
However, the most excited one was Yan Qingqing.
Upon seeing the fiery red armor she was wearing, Yan Qingqing pushed aside the people around her.
When she stood in front of Sheng Ning, she saw the familiar look in Sheng Ning's eyes, and her eyes welled up with tears. In front of everyone, she pulled Sheng Ning directly into her arms.
"You damned brat, you finally know to come back and see me!"
With her waist held tightly, Sheng Ning's face showed a hint of a smile and longing.
She raised her hand and gently patted her long-lost friend, who then spoke softly, "It's been so many years, my dear, how have you been?"
These words struck a nerve with Yan Qingqing. As soon as Sheng Ning finished speaking, tears welled up in her eyes and poured down like a flood.
Not to mention Qi Wenyao, even Master Qi had never seen her like this before.
The father and son exchanged a glance and were about to step forward when Su Daiyuan and Lu Jingshen's tall figures blocked their way.
Su Daiyuan looked at his junior sister and wanted to call her as usual, but he didn't know how to start when he opened his mouth.
The junior sister in front of me is indeed the junior sister, but something has changed.
When their eyes met, the two brothers saw the same expression in each other's eyes and both stopped and did not go forward.
On the contrary, when Sheng Ning saw her senior brothers running up to her but hesitating, she put on a sad face.
"I finally woke up, aren't my senior brothers happy?"
"My senior brothers should have waited for me. If they had just waited a little longer, my fourth senior brother wouldn't be in this state now..."
Yu Ye had exhausted all his spiritual energy and was currently unconscious.
When Sheng Ning said this, her eyes were filled with heartache.
When Su Daiyuan saw that her expression was no different from before, the weight that had been hanging over his heart finally lifted.
Immediately, he and Lu Jingshen showed relieved smiles.
After Yan Qingqing got up from her arms, the two brothers stepped forward and hugged her tightly, expressing their concern for her during this time.
"...Junior Sister, it's so good to see you awake! Senior Brother thought you..."
Su Daiyuan didn't dare to say anything more.
He held his junior sister tightly in his arms and asked in a hoarse voice, "What exactly happened? Junior sister, how could you have been unconscious for so long?"
Because Sheng Ning had previously encountered a lightning tribulation and had also fallen into a coma.
But this time she collapsed right in front of him, startling Su Daiyuan so much that his heart stopped. If Qi Wenyao and the others hadn't been by his side, he would have forgotten to breathe.
After bringing his junior sister back to the Invincible Sect from the South China Sea, Su Daiyuan constantly blamed himself for agreeing to go to the South China Sea with her.
If she hadn't gone to the South China Sea, Junior Sister wouldn't have encountered the sea monster and retrieved the fragments of her water-elemental spiritual root.
Therefore, it would not encounter another tribulation of lightning after the last advancement, when its foundation was still unstable.
If it weren't for the appearance of Pigworm and Xuanwu telling them that their junior sister was alright, and if she hadn't woken up after the Tianzhu incident was resolved, he would have been filled with deep self-blame.
They waited for seven days at the Invincible Sect, but their junior sister still didn't wake up.
The situation at Tianzhu was critical and could not be delayed any longer, so they had no choice but to temporarily abandon their junior sister and come to the outskirts of Youyun City.
Now, seeing his junior sister standing safely in front of him, although she looked much more mature than before, he was overjoyed.
Even so, she is still their junior sister, regardless of her current status.
Upon hearing Su Daiyuan's question, Sheng Ning's face showed a moment of dazedness.
"During this time, I..."
“She has accepted my existence; we are one, but she just hasn’t gotten used to it yet.”
It was clearly the same person speaking, yet there were subtle differences in their tone of voice.
When Su Daiyuan and the others heard the last sentence, their expressions froze.
"Sheng Ning? The creator god?"
Sheng Ning's expression changed from her previous dazed look to a sharp one. "Things are a bit complicated. Let's talk about it after we repair the Heavenly Pillar."
She looked up at the shattered pillar above her.
If the cultivators below hadn't been constantly transferring the spiritual energy from the Nuwa Stone into the Heavenly Pillar, the pillar would probably have collapsed when the earth cracked just now.
'Sheng Ning' withdrew her gaze and smiled at Su Daiyuan and the others in front of her, "Don't worry, I just came back to take a look, I won't occupy this body for long."
"It's strange, though. We're both from Sheng Ning, so why didn't I encounter a sect like yours before?"
Yan Qingqing frowned as she listened, "Because back then you disdained joining any sect."
Sheng Ning's cultivation speed is nothing short of abnormal.
At that time, the spiritual energy on the mainland was abundant, and anyone could step into the threshold of cultivation after systematic training.
In such a dreamlike world, there would naturally be no shortage of geniuses.
'Sheng Ning' cultivates much faster than those geniuses, and cultivating is as easy as drinking water for him.
As she herself said, cultivation was an extremely simple matter; she only needed to reach out and grab the spiritual energy around her to advance in rank.
No one else would believe it.
Since everyone else practices meditation and seclusion, her claim of reaching out to grasp spiritual energy for cultivation is utter nonsense.
In addition, her arrogant and conceited nature meant that no sect was willing to accept her. After being turned away by one or two sects, she gave up on the idea of joining a sect altogether.
"...Back then, you even created a little world called 'Mercenaries,' which was really amazing. These rogue cultivators who came to help just now also claimed to be mercenaries under Sheng Ning's command."
"You two really are the same person."
Yan Qingqing pointed down at the group of rogue mercenaries led by A Da and A Er.
Who could have imagined that, ten thousand years later, two different eras of 'Sheng Ning' would create the same mercenary legion?
'Sheng Ning' raised her hand and fiddled with her high ponytail, a bright smile appearing on her small face.
"She and I are the same person."
"If we weren't running out of time, I really would like to continue chatting with you."
"The pillar of heaven is about to collapse, and the demons are attacking. My love, would you be willing to fight alongside me again, just like ten thousand years ago?"
Yan Qingqing never imagined that she would see her friend again.
As soon as the other person finished speaking, she nodded emphatically, "Of course I'm willing!"
