Chapter 817 Return! The Whole Truth [1 Update]
That day was one he never wanted to recall.
Who sent the knights who ambushed Ying Zijing? They have yet to be tracked down.
He was absolutely certain that a traitor had emerged from among the sages.
And because 20xx was a void, even the Wheel of Fortune could not see who this traitor was.
She was already weak, and after being ambushed, her face became even paler.
He killed the knights, but he couldn't save her life.
Even so, she gripped his hand tightly, her eyes slightly sharp: "Go now! If you don't leave now, the door will be closed tonight."
He held her in his arms: "Miss Ying, what exactly do you want?"
She laughed when she heard that.
She was already extremely beautiful, but this smile made her even more stunning and captivating.
She said, "I just want you to live."
This sentence will forever remain his pain.
He certainly couldn't just leave like that.
He sought out the Wise Lover and asked for his help.
It's okay to pay any price.
In the end, he did not fail; he sent her to another universe.
But because at that time, she was already on the verge of death, her soul shattered.
So after arriving in the Spirit Cultivation Realm, she lost her memory.
She doesn't remember the sage, she doesn't remember the earth, she doesn't remember her past with him.
She mistakenly believed that she had lived for hundreds of thousands of years and that she was a native of the cultivation world.
And just as she had once told him.
There, through cultivation, she gained a healthy and strong body, greater strength, and stronger divination abilities.
She successfully returned to Earth and taught ancient martial arts, ancient medicine, and divination.
Although she has no memory of it, her appearance has completely changed.
But she still became friends with Xiu, the Sage of Justice, and the Sage of Power, and then went on to protect the world.
However, this time, they did not meet; they missed each other completely.
After that, she returned to the cultivation world, and due to a series of events, she once again sacrificed herself to protect others.
She still lost all her cultivation, her life, and her soul was shattered.
Only the ability to divine remains.
In the bedroom, Ying Zijing slowly opened her eyes.
She raised her hand and pressed it against her eyes.
Tears streamed down her face, one drop at a time, soaking her clothes.
She finally understood why she had come back.
Why, after going to so many places, does she still unconsciously return to this place?
because--
He is the sole obsession she is determined to return to, even if it means crossing the universe and traversing time and space.

"Boom!"
Thunder suddenly roared in the sky, and a bolt of lightning struck straight down towards the Sage's House.
After the lightning, red clouds appeared on the horizon, and the sky was filled with brilliant sunshine.
All the residents of the City of the World saw it and exclaimed in amazement.
"Auspicious signs have descended from heaven!"
"what happened?"
"It's Lord Wheel of Destiny! I've read the records, it must be Lord Wheel of Destiny!"
Inside the Sage's Courtyard, Sara's pupils also suddenly contracted.
The birth of a sage is silent.
But only on the day the Wheel of Fortune was born did a strange phenomenon occur.
This distinguishes the Wheel of Fortune from the other sages.
This is also why Sara despises the Wheel of Fortune.
Fortunately, the Wheel of Fortune is weak and cannot walk much.
And this strange phenomenon was exactly the same as before.
Could it be that a new sage is about to be born?!
Salo, the priestess, and Louis were all utterly astonished.
After the sages completely perished, their positions became vacant.
How can there be an heir?
The positions of Fool and Temperance remain vacant, so how come the Wheel of Fortune has found successors?
They didn't even know how sages were born.
What exactly happened?
“Shaluo, it seems the star chart shattered not because the energy dissipated,” the priestess said solemnly. “It’s because a new Wheel of Fate was born, and she reclaimed that power.”
Sara's eyes turned sinister: "I understand."
Let's leave the new wheel of fate aside for now.
Her immediate priority was to figure out how to get rid of Ying Zijin.
**
Over here, the Lengel family.
"Yes, Yaoyao is awake." Fu Yunshen glanced out the window, then stood up. "Mianxi, go upstairs and talk to her. I'll stay out of the way for a while."
Ling Mianxi pointed to herself: "Why should I go?"
Fu Yunshen said thoughtfully, "Try to calm her down, or she might hit me."
One sentence broke the heavy atmosphere.
Qin Lingyu wanted to laugh, but couldn't manage it at all.
How much pain they must have been in back then.
"If you're afraid of getting beaten up, why don't you push me up to take the blow? That's shameless." Ling Mianxi muttered. "Fine, fine, I'll be a good Samaritan to the end. This time, I'll help you again."
She turned her back and couldn't help but rub her reddened eyes.
Then I went upstairs and arrived at the bedroom door.
The door opened at that very moment.
The girl stood barefoot, clearly not having had time to put on shoes before heading out.
"Ahem." Ling Mianxi closed the door. "Aying, let me tell you what happened next."
Ying Zijing paused, took a deep breath, and tried to calm herself down: "Go ahead and speak."
“When you were dying, he brought you to me and asked me to use my special symbiotic ability to keep you alive,” Ling Mianxi said softly. “But your situation was unusual, and my ability was useless.”
It could also be said that the power unleashed by the Wheel of Fortune at this moment far exceeded that of any sage.
No other sage could match him.
This is quite normal.
The Wheel of Fortune can even calculate the trajectory of another universe; her abilities far surpass those of any sage.
Ying Zijing closed her eyes briefly: "I know."
Opening a passage between two universes is something that even in the cultivation world she once lived in, it would require a peak expert to sacrifice their life and soul.
“So he’s going to extend his life directly to you.” Ling Mianxi looked up. “This is the first time I’ve used this kind of symbiosis. Perhaps it’s because the two of you are too powerful that the backlash against me is not light.”
Not long after the Holy War, she also perished.
Ying Zijing's expression changed, and she suddenly grabbed her shoulders: "Xiao Mian, you—"
"It's alright. My demise is normal. Apart from needing to return to the Sage's Academy with you to recover my memories and powers, there are no other effects," Ling Mianxi said solemnly. "But I don't regret helping you."
The Wheel of Fortune and the Devil are for everyone; it doesn't matter if she sacrifices herself.
Ying Zijing's fingers slowly clenched, and the veins on her hands bulged out.
Her eyelashes trembled: "That holy war..."
“He remembered you saying that there was a traitor in the Academy of Sages, and coincidentally, several knights ambushed you, which made him even more certain of his idea.” Ling Mianxi slowly said, “Others thought that he attacked the entire Academy of Sages in a fit of anger, but that’s not the case.”
"It is because in order to achieve this special symbiosis, he must first severely injure himself and be on the verge of death, exchanging his life for another's, before it can be achieved."
Because of this unknown traitor, he would rather bear all the infamy than let any sage other than Ling Mianxi know that he sent Ying Zijin to another universe to increase her strength.
With the outbreak of the holy war, no one will notice the opening of the cosmic portal anymore.
Even in his extreme anger, he still did not harm a single life.
This is the complete inside story of the first Holy War.
“The symbiosis was ultimately successful, and you went to that cultivation world.” Ling Mianxi’s voice was very soft. “But at that time, he didn’t actually intend for you to come back.”
"He wants you to live there healthily and peacefully."
Ying Zijing closed her eyes slightly, feeling for the first time what it meant to feel heartache.
She asked, "What's the price? It's not just about trading lives, is it?"
Ling Mianxi turned her head to the side, her eyes reddening again: "The price is eternal darkness."
In each reincarnation, he would experience all sorts of hardships and condemnations.
No one loved him, no one believed him.
Alone, he lived out his days and died.
Reincarnation after reincarnation.
Until I see you again.
Even after falling into darkness, he continued to fight against all evil forces in every one of his lives.
This was an agreement between him and her.
After a very long silence, Ying Zijing finally spoke: "So stupid."
She went to another universe to increase her strength, but because she died again, her cultivation was completely dissipated.
Whether we can cope with the unknown future remains a mystery.
If Fu Yunshen had gone instead, this situation wouldn't have happened.
He could also possess greater strength than her.
Ying Zijing chuckled softly, then said, "How silly."
"Well, I won't bother you anymore." Ling Mianxi patted her shoulder and pointed behind her, "He's here."
Ying Zijing's body stiffened, and she turned around very slowly.
Fu Yunshen was standing at the top of the stairs.
Just like back then, his peach blossom eyes curved into a smile as he stepped forward and took her hand.
Familiar words, familiar tone.
"Miss Ying, this time, do you like me very much?"
Just to clarify, to ensure quality, there won't be any major updates towards the end.
Of course, if you guys want to read a lot of filler content, I can write a dozen or so chapters (just kidding).
Here's the thing, the publisher contacted me again, and they'll try to publish it while keeping the mystical elements as much as possible.
Everyone can look forward to it~~
