"Fake. Too fake." Li Xiang put away his Stinger and mercilessly exposed her lie and disguise. "Also, don't purposely expose your skirt to me. I'm not that kind of person. You should know that very well."
"Hmph, of course I know." Cecilia licked her lips and lay on his bed. She asked curiously, "How was it fake? I think I acted pretty well. "
"Your acting skills are great, but everything else is too fake. Your tone, demeanor, and personality. Or rather, you purposely pursued the truth, which made it seem fake. " Li Xiang gestured with his hands. In his previous life, he had seen many different kinds of people. In this aspect, he believed that no one could beat her. "First, you were hugging a teddy bear. In your mind, your other personality should be a weak, innocent, and cute girl. Unfortunately, I've seen her before. When she didn't speak, she was very similar to you. Her appearance and demeanor did not reflect that cute style. Before I interacted with her, I thought that she was a very rational and cold girl. Second, she would never call me Brother Li Xiang. With her identity and personality, I believe that no one would reveal my true identity to her. Only you would deliberately investigate."
"I see. These are all my carelessness. Indeed." Cecilia nodded thoughtfully. "But these are not enough for you to be so sure, right? You were prepared for my attack. Obviously, you are very sure of one thing. "
"Yes, when I first met Cecilia and communicated with her, my eyes, the Eye of Gear that only belongs to your Wessex Family, was drawn out!" Li Xiang tapped his eyes and let out a long sigh. "I don't know why, but she was the first girl who could draw out the fluctuation of my bloodline. I still remember it vividly. But this time, when I met you, and at the door, you didn't do it."
"So it's like this …" Cecilia suddenly realized, and a pale golden vortex suddenly formed in her eyes. "This is our family's Gear Pupil, but only the most perfect Golden Pupil can draw out other people's Gear Pupil. I always thought that I was the most perfect descendant after my father, and I'm not much different from you. I didn't expect that the real perfect one is that silly girl …"
"Alright, it's time to tell me why you're here." Li Xiang also sat on the bed, and Cecilia moved aside to make room for him. The two of them sat side by side, and the closeness of blood gave him a similar feeling to Ye Tong from Cecilia.
From a certain perspective, Cecilia and Ye Tong were very close by blood.
"Brother Li Xiang, what I'm going to say next, you have to be mentally prepared." Cecilia stopped smiling. Her face showed a rare tiredness...
From the first time they met, Li Xiang had always felt that this personality of Cecilia was smart and capable. She could control the Machinery Church, direct and act out the show in Aokiji 2-7, and force the Chaos Dragon to retreat this time. No matter how he looked at it, she was a strong woman.
But now, she was showing weakness and tiredness. It made his heart ache.
"Yes."
"My father is Cielo Wessex, but no one knows my birth mother. In my memory, I've never seen my mother even once since I was young. For some reason, my father has been hiding me in the family. Although many of his friends know of my existence, there are many times when I feel like I'm more like a collector's item that he keeps in his storage room. "
Cecilia leaned on his shoulder and slowly recalled.
"I learned all kinds of knowledge and received the best education of a noble lady, but I've never come into contact with anyone outside the Wessex family. When I was young, every time I could see Father, I would be happy for a long time. But every time he saw me, he would whisper to himself. Only now do I understand that he was looking for the shadow of another woman in me. "
Li Xiang's heart skipped a beat. He suddenly had a bad feeling.
"Have you guessed something? You're so smart, you must have guessed it. " Cecilia smiled faintly. She hugged his arm and continued, "At that time, I was still the personality you saw in a dormant state. It was also my real personality. Then, one day, my father suddenly carried me into his workshop … "
"He modified you into a mechanical creature???" Li Xiang's tone was a little unfriendly.
Modifying a living person into a mechanical creature, no matter what the goal was, was to completely destroy a living person, let alone his own daughter.
He loved machines, but he would never accept such a concept.
Li Xiang was willing to make mechanical prosthetics for those crippled humans, so that they could live a better life, but he would never do that kind of modification experiment.
"Yes, when I woke up, I realized that my body …" Cecilia's face was filled with disappointment. Obviously, she didn't like this body. "It was also at that time that endless fear and despair surrounded me, allowing her to give birth to my personality. She wanted to escape. In order to deal with the cruel world and family, she gave birth to me, a real noble lady. "
"Unfortunately, I wasn't the woman that Father wanted to pursue. Later on, I found out that he had always been doing mechanical experiments on the human body. I was just his best finished product. Before me, he had failed more than a hundred times. Too many failures made Father doubt himself. "
"There was no need for such experiments, but you are indeed a perfect product. At least in my eyes, you are already perfect." Li Xiang did not like Duke Silo's way of doing things, but he had to admit that Cecilia had perfectly combined the strengths of both humans and machines.
"Yes, that's what my father said as well. He said that I was the most perfect creation, but what he pursued was to create a brand new life form, and the template was your mother, Bai Lili." Cecilia didn't know whether she should laugh bitterly or be happy.
"Our mother." Li Xiang sighed.
"You guessed it. Yes, I'm Bai Lili and his daughter. You're Bai Lili and Uncle Lancelot's son. Ye Tong is Bai Lili and the White King's daughter. " Cecilia nodded. "Because I'm their daughter, my father thought that he could use me to recreate Bai Lili. He loved that woman so much that he didn't hesitate to sacrifice his own daughter to 'resurrect' the woman he loved."
Li Xiang shuddered. What the f * ck was going on?
What had Bai Lili done to attract the three most outstanding men in the world? Two of them could not forget her, and one of them was willing to die for her.
Cecilia, him, Ye Tong, and Ming Xu were all the sacrifices of the previous generation!
"If it was that simple, it wouldn't be strange. Bai Lili is the most outstanding woman to date. I don't find it strange that she could do all this." Cecilia took a deep breath and suddenly lowered her voice. "After that, Father tried his best to create a new mechanical creature."
"The Queen of Pain, Bai Lili." Li Xiang frowned. "She's different. She has awakened her own consciousness. She was created based on Bai Lili's template?"
"That's right. From a certain perspective, she's the true perfect product. However, no one expected that she, who was originally thought to be a failed product and had remained silent in the Sky Arena all this time, underwent a major change after meeting you. She actually gained self-awareness. However, this is something only the two of us know. "
Cecilia glanced at him and continued. "After knowing Mother's identity and Father's thoughts, I was depressed for a long time. My main personality has always been carefree, but I was not satisfied. I wanted to let my father know that I'm more outstanding than Bai Lili. I'm his daughter … That's why I founded the Machinery Church and started researching mechanical creatures right under his nose. I wanted him to understand that I can do what he can't. "
Other than the deep unwillingness in Cecilia's eyes, there was also love for Duke Siluo.
Li Xiang could understand. She had once regarded her father as her everything. After experiencing this kind of "betrayal," she wanted to work harder to prove herself. This was similar to Stockholm Syndrome. The changes in her secondary personality were also deeply affected by these things.
"Duke Siluo must be a very proud person. He won't care about your research." Li Xiang said calmly. He could guess Duke Siluo's personality from the words he heard from the projection in Jadeite Forest. "What I find strange is, didn't Bai Lili set her own resurrection? Then why is he so obsessed with reviving her on the path of machinery? "
"That's what I'm curious about. I've used all my resources to investigate and finally got a conclusion." Cecilia paused for a while and then told him the most shocking secret.
"Have you ever thought about why only you are a man and we are women?"
"…" Li Xiang was speechless. Was it not because of their XY chromosomes?
Of course, it was not a simple hereditary problem. Otherwise, why would Cecilia come here to explain it to him?
"Because Ye Tong and I are different from you. Bai Lili has always loved Uncle Lancelot. She and Uncle Lancelot gave birth to you through … that. While White King and my father borrowed the seed! "
"She is only borrowing the most outstanding man of mankind and trying to combine it with her mutated genes. She wants to see if she can replicate another Bai Lili or inherit a part of her power or will."
"Her goal is eternal life!"
"No matter how strong a person is, there will be a day when they will grow old and die. White King cannot resist this rule, neither can my father nor Bai Lili! When the physical body dies, the spiritual consciousness cannot be preserved. It is the Disaster's unique ability to possess the spiritual consciousness in another body. "
Li Xiang nodded and immediately thought of the Disaster that had taken over Fenix's body.
"But when the spiritual consciousness is possessed, the body belongs to someone else. There is no way it can inherit the original power."
"That's right. If I could inherit it, I would have died long ago." Cecilia did not understand what Li Xiang was saying. What he meant was, if the Disaster in Fenix's body had the original power, then not only him, but the entire Fenix family would have died long ago.
He had been hibernating all this time, which meant that he did not have such power.
"Ye Tong inherited a part of her omniscient and omnipotent power, which is reflected in the use of the Book of Prophecy. This proves that her idea is feasible." Cecilia stared straight at him, her eyes filled with anger and indignation. "Then what about me? I must have a part of it as well. At the end of the day, she just wants to create a strong enough descendant that can be used as a vessel for her revival when necessary. "
"No wonder she did not use those vessels to revive!" Li Xiang was shocked. This move was too powerful. Even though they became her sworn enemies, King White and Duke Siluo would not place their sights on their own daughter.
No matter how many vessels you destroy, you will not be able to stop Bai Lili's revival.
As long as she is willing, both Ye Tong and Cecilia can be sacrificed.
That woman, from the very beginning, had everyone in the palm of her hand.
"After returning from Aokiji 2-7, I slowly found out about your background. Before that, I had been collecting information about the galactic turbulence. I needed to strengthen the strength of the Machinery Church, so I had to rely on this galactic turbulence to nurture enough loyal subordinates. She looks down on everyone and thinks that no one can be her match. Then I have to try and defeat her! "
A hint of competitiveness appeared on Cecilia's face. She did not have any kinship with Bai Lili.
"The Queen of Pain is a variable, a variable that none of us expected. I think we can start with her to deal with Bai Lili." Cecilia's face darkened, and her voice became softer and softer. "Brother Li Xiang, I don't have much time left. The main personality in my body is becoming more and more afraid. Maybe one day, after a deep sleep, this personality of mine will never wake up again. I only managed to stay in this state because I took some medicine and forced myself not to sleep. "
Her essence was still human.
"What do you want me to do?" Li Xiang sighed. Another pitiful girl who had been harmed by Bai Lili for the rest of her life.
In the previous generation, the First Lady who had always lived under Bai Lili's shadow had already gone mad. She had indirectly harmed Dong Ling, Sakura, and Ming Xu. He did not want to see Cecilia like that.
"The Queen of Pain is most likely hiding in one of the three main battlefields. Unfortunately, I can only enter this area in Wessex. She doesn't seem to be here anymore. I hope you can help me find her. This is the best for both of us." Cecilia hugged him and pressed her cheek gently against his back.
Li Xiang was speechless. Cecilia's personality was definitely not as simple as it was now. She was so close to him and seemed to be standing on the same line as him. Who knew what would happen in the future?
On the other hand, the main personality's innocence made him feel at ease.
A woman who could create the Evil Mechanical Church for revenge was a scheming woman who pretended to be pitiful. He would not believe her completely.
"I'll try my best, but what will I get in return? At the end of the day, if Bai Lili doesn't hurt Ye Tong, why should I try my best to stop her from reviving? "
Li Xiang smiled faintly.
"I-I still have the ability to give birth." Cecilia's cheeks were slightly red. She mumbled, "I-I …"
Li Xiang was stunned. He immediately understood what she meant. In this world, everyone valued two things. The first was themselves, and the second was their descendants.
Thus, in a large family, Bai Lili's actions were not considered crazy. It was not incomprehensible either.
There were countless marriages between close relatives, especially the Dong Ling family. They had even created a Sovereign Family.
Unfortunately, Cecilia would never know that Li Xiang's soul came from another world. His views were very different from the humans here.
Her final trump card was worthless in Li Xiang's eyes.
"I can only try. I can't guarantee anything. After all, the Queen of Pain already has a basic consciousness. She might not agree with me."
"It's enough that you're willing to help me. Ah, I'm so sleepy. I need to sleep for a while. Thank you, Big Brother Li Xiang." As Cecilia spoke, she fell into a deep sleep on his bed.
After a while, he realized that she had really fallen asleep. Li Xiang was stunned again. The scheming b * tch that he had just erected in his mind collapsed again.
Just what kind of person is she ….?
