Thousands of nomological beams descended from the sky like a massive river of stars. Yi Yun stood behind Lin Xintong, about a hundred feet away from her. Yi Yun looked at Lin Xintong while she looked up at the brilliant Heavenly Dao.
The two of them were speechless. At this moment, this scene seemed to be frozen for eternity.
At that instant, Fairy Yourou felt an inexplicable sense of heartache for Yi Yun. This man had overcome all obstacles to come this far, but all he got in exchange was a back view?
At that moment, there was no need to doubt that Divine General Skyjade had repeated what Lin Xintong said when she returned the Godly Monarch Royal Seal.
"Xintong, I only ask you, have you severed your mortal ties? If you sever them, I will leave and pursue the Great Dao wholeheartedly."
Yi Yun said. Although he had come to the White Lunar Divine Empire for Lin Xintong, he did not wish to force anything.
Lin Xintong remained silent for a long while. She sheathed her sword and slowly turned around. At that moment, it was as if the hundreds of years she had spent with Yi Yun had condensed together. All sorts of memories with Lin Xintong appeared in Yi Yun's mind.
As their eyes met, Yi Yun finally saw Lin Xintong's face.
She looked like a sixteen or seventeen year old girl, and there was a trace of childishness between her brows. However, her gaze was deep and distant, as if it could pierce through the void of the Heavenly Dao. Her teeth were white and flawless like pearls, and her legs were straight and slender like a crane. She stood there, her beauty was like a white lotus in full bloom on a ten thousand meter tall snowy mountain, causing others to hold their breath.
Lin Xintong looked at Yi Yun. Her clear eyes revealed a trace of confusion and a trace of nostalgia, but she finally said softly, "Yes …"
It was a simple word, but it sounded extremely heartless.
Yi Yun stood rooted to the ground, not saying a word.
Behind Yi Yun, Fairy Yourou felt indignant for Yi Yun. From her point of view, Yi Yun was an outstanding man. Even if Lin Xintong outshone Yi Yun, the fact that he had done so much for Lin Xintong was something Lin Xintong cherished.
However, all Yi Yun got in exchange for his efforts was such a cold sentence.
Husband and wife hadn't seen each other for hundreds of years, and now that they were reunited, even if their hearts had changed, there was no need for them to just exchange a glance and a few words.
"Young Master Yi, let's go. There's no point in staying here any longer …"
Fairy Yourou's Yuan Qi voice transmission sounded in Yi Yun's ears, but he did not seem to hear it. He continued standing in the middle of the square.
"Yi Yun, you should have heard Her Majesty's words. Do not interfere with our White Lunar Divine Empire's coronation. We have returned your Godly Monarch Royal Seal. It's best you leave quickly, or I'll have to ask you to leave."
Lin Xintong gave Yi Yun a deep look. This look seemed to imprint Yi Yun in her mind. Then, she slowly turned around and looked up at the towering Heavenly Dao.
"Xintong, what's wrong? Is there something you haven't finished saying? "
Upon meeting Lin Xintong's eyes, Yi Yun could feel the sorrow contained within. He had planned on leaving, but Lin Xintong's eyes made him want to clarify things.
"This Yi Yun isn't leaving yet. He has already been rejected, yet he's still asking if she has anything to say."
Most of the people present were gloating when they saw this scene. Many of them had been repressed by Yi Yun previously, so they were naturally happy to see Yi Yun hit a brick wall.
"He was rather impressive just moments ago, but now, he has embarrassed himself. Seeing him act so arrogantly in front of the Sinkhole powerhouses, I really believed that it was possible that he was Lin Xintong's husband. But from the looks of it, it was just him bragging."
People discussed in private, hoping to see Yi Yun make a fool of himself.
"Yi Yun!" Divine General Skyjade's voice had a cold tone to it. "I'll warn you again. This is our White Lunar Divine Empire's coronation. Her Majesty is now praying to the Heavenly Dao, and it's also the most critical part of the coronation. I allowed you to meet Her Majesty on account of your sincerity. Now that your wish has been fulfilled, I won't stand on ceremony if you don't leave!"
As Divine General Skyjade spoke, his Yuan Qi stirred. His tall and stocky body and long hair flared in the wind. He looked like a god of war that had descended.
"Lord Skyjade, do it. This Yi Yun is completely shameless. If we don't teach him a lesson, he won't know what his status is."
A young elite from the White Lunar Divine Empire said. In their hearts, Lin Xintong was a true goddess. She was pure and aloof, so how could she tolerate a man's blasphemy?
It was unknown what Yi Yun's relationship with West River Divine Lord and company was, but they had long found him an eyesore.
However, Yi Yun did not feel anything towards Divine General Skyjade's threat. All he did was look at Lin Xintong's back and await her answer.
Apart from that, the surrounding mockery and mockery, as well as the killing intent from the Sinkhole powerhouses, seemed to be isolated in different space-time. It was as though everything in the world had nothing to do with him.
"Xintong, I want an answer."
Yi Yun's voice sounded like a whisper that came from the depths of his soul as it resounded in Lin Xintong's ears.
Unknowingly, Lin Xintong, who had her back facing Yi Yun, had two streams of tears stream down her eyes. She bit her lips as blood seeped out from the corners of her lips.
She clenched the sword in her hand so tightly that her knuckles turned white as though she was about to crush the hilt.
She did not turn her head. She wanted to raise her sword again, but her fingers were trembling. She found it difficult to raise the sword.
"Rumble!"
The White Jade Phoenix Palace suddenly quaked.
"What's happening!?"
The White Lunar Divine Empire guards that were walking towards Yi Yun began to lose their footing.
"Your Majesty?"
Everyone was alarmed. The White Jade Phoenix Palace was refined by Lin Xintong, but it was a Godly Monarch numinous treasure after all. Lin Xintong had only cultivated for a few centuries, so it was obvious how difficult it was for her to control it.
Could it be that Lin Xintong had expended too much of her energy by praying to the Heavenly Dao and could no longer hold on? Everyone from the White Lunar Divine Empire looked worriedly at Lin Xintong. After all, it was the coronation, an extremely important moment in Lin Xintong's life. All of them were standing in the square in front of the White Jade Phoenix Palace. If Lin Xintong's stamina were to fail and cause the White Jade Phoenix Palace to fall, the coronation would be over.
"Xintong!?" At that moment, a voice suddenly sounded in Lin Xintong's mind. "What are you doing? Have you forgotten the promise you made to me?"
It was Lin Xintong's mental world amidst the boundless golden light and crystalline waters!
In there, there was a woman with a perfect figure and skin that resembled white jade. She was immersed in the waters and her arms were bound with silver chains. Her flawless body was covered in mystical purple hex seals, and in the middle of her glabella, there was a red lotus that was silently blooming. This red lotus had a total of eight petals, with only one missing.
"Master …"
Lin Xintong's heart palpitated. The woman who was naked in her soul sea was her master — Bai Yueyin!
"I … didn't forget …"
"But your Dao heart is already unstable. Back in the Fey God Tomb, I should have killed him with one strike!"
"Master!" Lin Xintong's heart tightened. "No!"
"Xintong! If we had a way out, I wouldn't have used such means. I don't want you to hate me, but I can spare Yi Yun's life, but the Ancestor God won't. You have already witnessed His strength. It's not only limited to me. Even Yi Yun has a tracing mark left behind by Him! You must have sensed this mark as well! "
When Bai Yueyin said that, Lin Xintong's heart sank as the color drained from her face.
She had witnessed the Ancestor God's strength with Bai Yueyin. To be precise, she had only followed Bai Yueyin and witnessed her intense battle with the Ancestor God.
Decades ago, in the primeval universe, the Ancestor God was severely injured for some unknown reason. Bai Yueyin sensed it and tore through layers of space to attack him.
With Bai Yueyin's boldness, everyone would have avoided such a terrifying god. But only Bai Yueyin had traversed billions of kilometers and fought the Ancestor God while he was weak!
But even so, Bai Yueyin's body was completely destroyed in that battle. It made everyone in the Sinkhole believe that Bai Yueyin was truly dead.
Bai Yueyin had long expected this. She had brought Lin Xintong along with her. With her body destroyed, Bai Yueyin's soul body entered Lin Xintong's soul sea to recuperate.
At the same time, it was Bai Yueyin's final reincarnation.
Grand Reincarnation Technique — Ninth Reincarnation!
At the ninth reincarnation, Bai Yueyin chose to reincarnate in Lin Xintong's body. It was equivalent to fusing with Lin Xintong!
This was something Lin Xintong had long known and was mentally prepared for.
The Grand Reincarnation Technique left behind by Empress Sheng Mei was split into the concepts of life and death. Bai Yueyin and Lin Xintong each cultivated a portion of it. The Lotus of Death that Bai Yueyin condensed could only be perfected by fusing with Lin Xintong's Lotus of Life.
In fact, Bai Yueyin had taken Lin Xintong in as a disciple for this goal!
However, Bai Yueyin had found Lin Xintong too late. She had paid the price of having her body destroyed to severely injure the Ancestor God so as to buy time for her ninth reincarnation.
The coronation was to allow Lin Xintong to shock the Sinkhole with her might as the new empress, preventing the various factions from invading. After that, Lin Xintong would enter seclusion for a hundred years to complete the final fusion.
Lin Xintong had long known of Bai Yueyin's arrangements, but she had silently accepted it.
She knew that Bai Yueyin had sacrificed herself for the battle. She was indebted to Bai Yueyin and respected her. Furthermore, this was the only way to defeat the Ancestor God.
Furthermore, the Ancestor God had left a mark in Yi Yun's body. Even if Lin Xintong ignored all life in the world, she could not ignore Yi Yun's life.
Under such circumstances, she had no other choice.
And since she had agreed to fuse with Bai Yueyin, it was impossible for her to continue being with Yi Yun.
For this, she had cultivated in the Emotion Forgetting Art to sever her mortal ties. She felt no joy or sorrow towards anything, but when Yi Yun appeared in front of her and awaited her answer, she felt her Dao heart waver.
