Lonemoon paused. He glanced at Shen Ying and then at Xuan Tong, who was smiling even wider. What the hell?
"I'm still used to you calling me Shortie." Xuan Tong smiled a little proudly and walked quickly to Shen Ying. "Sect Master is indeed as wise as ever. When did you realize that? I even sealed my memories and split off a remnant of my soul. "
"Mm …" Shen Ying thought about it seriously. "From when the Godfiend asked us to find you."
Meng Po's mouth twitched. She looked listless. "Didn't you find out from the beginning? Sect Master, can't you give me some face? Can't you coax me some other time? "
"Oh." Shen Ying nodded and continued, "Then let's start from the first time I saw you and felt that your soul was abnormal!"
"…" Wasn't that even earlier?
-_-|||
"Wait!" Lonemoon interrupted them, looking confused. "Shen Ying! Shortie … She's Meng Po. You … You knew from the beginning, but you never told me? "
"I thought you knew!" Shen Ying tilted her head.
"What the hell!" How would I know if you didn't tell me? "What's going on?! Isn't she Chen Ge's mental demon? "
"Mental demons are not souls. Even with the power of reincarnation, how can a complete soul be formed in just a few lifetimes! " Before Shen Ying could speak, Xuan Tong explained, "Back then, I was too bored in the Divine Underworld and wanted to go to the human world. I found the mental demon in the River of Forgetfulness and out of curiosity, I captured it and reincarnated. Actually, I reincarnated many times before that. "
"You went by yourself? Then why did the Godfiend ask us to find you? "If she was Meng Po, how could the Godfiend not tell? Was he blind?
"He doesn't know that I reincarnated." She shook her head. They were all three ancient gods. They could predict everything in the world but not each other. "What's more, I left a remnant of my soul by the River of Forgetfulness. That's why he thought I was still in the Divine Underworld. Later, my remnant soul was captured by Hongyu and he discovered that I was missing. " Hongyu had also noticed that this remnant soul was different from other souls. That was why he had pulled her back to the Divine Underworld from the Immortal World.
"Then what's with the plot that the Godfiend gave me?" It was clearly about her.
"Although I was a mortal after reincarnating, my luck was naturally different from others. Coincidentally, he wanted to solve the problem of the Devil Realm, so he included me in his calculations. "The main female lead's luck in the plot was also because she was Meng Po.
How torturous! No wonder Hongyu had instructed Bian Xinchen to drag her to the Divine Realm by force. He even said that her soul was special. Wasn't it special? She was the original body of the River of Forgetfulness.
Lonemoon scanned the familiar yet strange person in front of him. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but the words did not come out. He clenched his fists by his side and said, "Then now … are you Shortie or Meng Po?"
"Both."
Lonemoon frowned, not satisfied with this answer. "Little Shortie, can't you come back?"
"…" Meng Po did not reply, as if she did not know how to answer this question.
"Forget it." Lonemoon sighed. He did not want to know the answer again. Damn it! Was his Invincible Sect destined not to have any sword cultivator disciples? "Since you're Meng Po, do you have a way to let those people who are missing remnant souls return?"
"Without someone controlling them, their remnant souls will return on their own." She smiled and said, "Mother Feng has already entered Samsara. It's just that the scattered wandering souls in the Divine Realm will need some time to gather and form a soul."
Lonemoon heaved a sigh of relief. It was good that everything was fine.
"But there's one person who is a little troublesome …" Meng Po suddenly frowned, as if she had encountered a problem. "His soul is about to dissipate, but he is unwilling to enter Samsara."
Lonemoon paused. Instantly, he knew who it was. "Hongyu?!"
She nodded and waved her hand. In a moment, a white-haired, white-bearded old man appeared in front of the two of them. He still looked kind and amiable, but there was a hint of worry in his eyes. His body, which was brimming with God Power, was now extremely transparent. It was as if he was about to shatter at any moment.
"You …" Seeing Lonemoon, Hongyu paused. A moment later, he seemed to have thought of something. His entire body bent and he fell to the ground, as if he had lost his last bit of strength. His face was full of despair. "I never thought that after so many years of planning, it would all be for naught."
Lonemoon frowned. He did not know what to say. Hongyu was not exactly a bad person. He did not even have any selfish motives. He just wanted to keep everything in this world. He did not even hesitate to jump into the Reincarnation Stage and self-destruct. Bai Ze said that when he opened a forum to preach, he did not reject anyone. More than eighty percent of the living beings in the Divine Realm had benefited from his kindness.
Although his motive for doing this was probably to obtain a remnant soul from everyone to help him enter the Divine Realm, it was undeniable that he was sincere. What's more, he had spells to control souls. He could have been like Bian Xinchen and directly extracted the primary soul to increase his own God Power, but he did not. Even in the end, he did not risk everything and let those who were being controlled rush in to fight to the death.
He was indeed a kind person. It was just that he had gone in the wrong direction.
"Forget it!" Hongyu sighed. His body became more and more transparent. His soul started to glow faintly. "This is fate. The living beings in the Three Realms are destined to be unable to escape the pain of reincarnation. They can only struggle to survive in the mortal world. No matter how hard I try, I will not be able to fight against the heavens."
"Why do you say reincarnation is painful?" Shen Ying suddenly asked.
Hongyu paused and looked at her. "If reincarnation is not painful, why do people want to become immortals and seek the Dao? My lifelong wish is to help the living beings in the Three Realms escape this kind of reincarnation. "
"But what does your lifelong wish have to do with the living beings in the Three Realms?"
"What?" Hongyu paused.
"I say, Uncle … have you not done a census? There are many people who seek immortality, but most of them are mortals. "
"But who doesn't want to live forever?"
"Oh, that means you've asked the living beings in the Three Realms?"
"This …" He was speechless.
"You didn't even ask them and you're so sure that they all want to live forever?" Shen Ying sighed and sat down cross-legged. She supported her head with one hand and said, "Perhaps living forever is good, but only you think it's good. Everyone thinks differently. Who knows, there might be people who don't want to live anymore?"
"I …" Hongyu's face paled. He could not find the words to refute her.
"You didn't even ask them and you're making decisions for others. Everyone has the right to vote in the election of the president, right? Whether they live or die is fine! This is someone else's business. You can't take away their right to choose and then say that it's for their own good, can you? "
"…"
"Uncle, as a god, you can't have such double standards."
