Luo Xing knew that it was not convenient for her to be present, so she quickly ran to the airship to return to the military.
The seven continents were embroiled in the flames of war, and invading mutants and disasters were everywhere. However, the Wailing Mountains seemed to be isolated from the rest of the world, and no creatures from the disaster camp appeared.
At first, Li Xiang felt that it was a little strange, but when he remembered that Ming Xu would become Bai Lili's descendant, all his doubts were resolved.
Bai Lili would not allow any creature to step into her descending area, regardless of friend or foe, so he was not worried that there would be thieves waiting for an opportunity to descend.
A woman who had planned for decades, her omniscience and omnipotence were probably unstoppable.
It was because of this that Li Xiang did not plan to go against Bai Lili after awakening.
She had set up such a big trap, first using the wrong resurrection ritual to mislead the experts of the seven continents who were against her, including the loyal subordinates of the tarot cards. Then, she used this time to slaughter the royal family and completely control the Goddess of Calamity. Li Xiang, a spy, might have been buried when he and Ye Tong were still in the new world.
Including Li Xiang's future path, everything was laid out from the beginning.
Looking back, Bai Lili's ultimate goal was to successfully obtain a perfect descendant that would not resist.
Li Xiang guessed that there should be four choices for the descendant. One was Ye Tong, one was Ming Xu, one was Fei Yujing, and one was Cecilia.
Ye Tong and Cecilia's birth was to prepare for her resurrection, and both of them had her bloodline and a part of her authority, so they were more suitable for the descendant.
Fei Yujing was probably the last choice, and if something happened to these two, she would still have Fei Yujing to complete the final descent.
After all, although Ye Tong and Cecilia were highly compatible, they were too close to the Supreme.
As Fei Yujing's development gradually exceeded her expectations, Bai Lili might have changed her mind at some point and made Fei Yujing a higher priority descendant. At the same time, Ming Xu also entered her vision.
At least in the early stages, she did not see Ming Xu as a suitable descendant. She was also close to the Supreme, but not as compatible as Ye Tong and Cecilia.
During the Death Omen period, she did not even decide to use Ming Xu as a descendant. Later on, she almost used Fei Yujing as a vessel to descend. No one knew what happened that changed her mind, but it also caused Fei Yujing to completely fall into the Calamity camp.
After that, she decided that Ming Xu was the perfect descendant.
She plotted to kill the Polar night magicians, destroy the Polar night and Lighthouse, watched Li Xiang create a new Polar night, then worked with Lancelot, and died at the Great Wall of Calamity. Ming Xu had no choice but to listen to Fei Yujing's instructions and go to the New World to obtain the Eternal Water, then trade his life for hers.
All the arrangements were perfect, and although there were some mistakes, the final result was still as Bai Lili had expected.
She perfectly controlled the countless threads over the decades to achieve her own resurrection, even though she clearly told herself that she was still far from being omnipotent, and that she could not be sure of the success of her resurrection.
However, in Li Xiang's opinion, this power was still beyond Level-9, or even beyond that.
She had perfectly merged with the Goddess of Calamity, and even if she descended, the New World would still be in her hands.
Li Xiang believed that there was no way he could defeat such an enemy at his current stage.
At least if she succeeded in descending, Ming Xu would have a chance of resurrection.
Ming Xu's self-consciousness was in a deep sleep, and there was still Shub-Niggurath's power clone in his body. Shub-Niggurath was one of the Tri-Origin Pillar Gods, the highest existence among the countless eternal existences. Could Bai Lili successfully devour its power?
Not necessarily.
"She might want to use this power to achieve her own eternity?" Li Xiang frowned. So many years had passed, and Lancelot, who had turned into the Goddess of Calamity, still had not taken that step. It was obvious that achieving eternity was difficult.
Li Xiang came before the ancient tree. In the green and transparent trunk, Yao Kui and Ming Xu were frozen at the last moment. Looking at Ming Xu's expressionless face and his body that was pinned by the golden feathers, his eyes closed, the last remaining murderous intent penetrated the ancient tree and passed to Li Xiang.
She knew that she would die, and she knew that this would be the end, but she still went to the New World without hesitation, walking into Bai Lili and Fei Yujing's trap. She originally had a chance of survival, but she chose to forcefully trade with the Devouring Winged King for herself.
This fool …
"You were the one who said that you would live a good life after everything ended, but you broke the promise first. How can I feel joy in a world without you?" Li Xiang stroked the tree trunk as if he was hugging Ming Xu.
After a long time, he sniffled and smiled. "Don't worry, I'll bring you back to life very soon. This time, it's my turn to resurrect you."
.....
On the Lightless Island.
Fei Yujing, who was soaking in the blood pool, swam slowly. She did not look at Lancelot who was sitting on the throne at all. She was angry.
Very angry. Very angry.
"Don't you have anything to say to me?" Fei Yujing dived into the blood pool and stood up. The blood in the pool was just above her chest, revealing a shallow cleavage.
The blood set off her skin, making her even more beautiful.
Seeing that Lancelot was still smiling and had no intention of answering her, Fei Yujing walked over step by step. She wanted to go ashore and beat this boss up.
"You said that you would trick Bai Lili into giving you the Eternal Water and take it from Ming Xu, but what happened in the end?" Fei Yujing gnashed her teeth in hatred and said to him in a low voice, "The Sky Devouring Winged Monarch was scared out of his wits by Ming Xu and joined forces with the Twin Moons Tribal Lord to seal her with the Earth Seed. Bai Dongxue secretly took the Eternal Water and gave it to Li Xiang. We didn't get anything! "
"Oh, we did get something. The son that you gave up on destroyed the Great Disaster Wall that gave us a headache. Even the defense line of the seven continents collapsed. Those players are worse than we thought. They're trash. It's only a matter of time before the invasion succeeds. Our children have been lurking for a long time. They can take over those aristocratic families at any time. This fits your plan perfectly. "
"You're so cute when you're complaining. No wonder Li Xiang liked you so much back then. It's not without reason." Lancelot laughed out loud. He looked at Fei Yujing who was pouting and said, "I know the real reason why you're upset. It's because I didn't tell you the real plan, right?"
"It's good that you know it. Are you saying it to mock me? Are you mocking me, an idiot who wants to go up but is being played by you and your wife? "Fei Yujing smiled in annoyance.
Lancelot waved his hand and said calmly, "See, didn't I tell you the truth? Actually, her goal and mine have been the same since the beginning. What we want to destroy is not the human camp, not the Disaster camp, and not the seven continents. We want to destroy the entire world! Including these two, the new world, and the places behind the Eternal Gate. We don't leave a single one of them alive. We'll destroy them all. "
"Hiss …" Fei Yujing gasped softly. Although she was aware of it, hearing it with her own ears was still very shocking.
Using Li Xiang's power to destroy the Great Disaster Wall and invade the seven continents was the first step.
Countless souls would wander around the seven continents and slowly gather at the magic formations. With the Darkest Flame that she controlled, the lighthouse would be completely connected to the seven continents and the new world. It would be possible for Bai Lili to descend.
Her carrier would undoubtedly be Ming Xu.
At that time, the seven continents would be in a state of true despair.
"I didn't tell you before because I wasn't sure of your true thoughts. Using Li Xiang's death in exchange for the Eternal Water was to test your attitude." Lancelot chuckled at her. "Did you think that I couldn't see through it? When I told you about this plan and asked you to bewitch Ming Xu, what was the first question you asked me?
"You didn't even ask me about the use of the Eternal Water. Instead, you asked Li Xiang what we should do. He'll definitely die if he doesn't get the Eternal Water. You were worried. After that, Ming Xu was hunted down and surrounded. Did you think that I didn't know that you secretly sent a message to the Thousand-toothed Shadow so that they could disrupt the aristocratic families' plans and secretly help Ming Xu?
"Also, no one else knew that Bai Dongxue left with the Eternal Water, but you guessed it in your heart. However, you didn't do anything. You just watched her leave and gave the item to Li Xiang. If you had done something, they wouldn't have succeeded so easily."
Fei Yujing's expression changed. She did not say anything.
Lancelot was telling the truth. Although she did not directly help Ming Xu, she did do many small things intentionally or unintentionally.
She did not want to see Li Xiang die.
"Your injuries are almost healed. The new Polar night's bloody revenge against the aristocratic families' alliance is about to begin. He needs your cooperation to collect the souls of the dead together," Lancelot said calmly as he sat on the throne. "Do you have any other questions?"
"Two. First, what happened between you and Bai Lili? You said that she betrayed you and took the two skills for herself. She even caused you to die in the Eternal Gate. However, I don't think that's the case. Didn't you participate in the plan to seal Bai Lili in the Goddess of Calamity?" Fei Yujing raised a slender finger. Her eyes were burning. Since he had said so much, there was no need for her to hide her doubts.
The relationship between the betrayer and the betrayed did not seem to be that clear.
"Do you really want to know?" Lancelot stopped smiling slowly and said to her, "There are some things that are better left unknown."
"I want to know the truth. It's not just about who's right and who's wrong." Fei Yujing nodded.
Lancelot hesitated for a moment and said slowly, "Alright, I'll tell you. Even if she successfully arrives in Ming Xu's body, we'll still be enemies. That won't change. Therefore, although I lied to you, it's true that I didn't want Ming Xu and Li Xiang to live. "
"But you didn't do anything. You even facilitated her arrival this time."
"Because I still love her."
Lancelot continued.
Fei Yujing was stunned.
"It's hard to understand right now, but isn't it the only thing that can confuse and make people lose their minds? My entanglement with her can't be explained in such a short time. Perhaps if there's a chance in the future, I can start from when we first met, but that's just my past with her. Just like you and Li Xiang, you didn't abandon him even when he was tested with Death Awakening. You even begged Bai Yunfei for him to get a place in Keihoku University. He didn't know the inside story and left without saying anything. Have you ever hated him?
"He slowly fell in love with Ming Xu in the Polar night training camp. There were more and more differences between the two of you, but in the ultimate trial, you had many chances to kill Ming Xu. Did you kill him? No, you even loved him deeply. You knew that sooner or later, he'd be completely snatched away by Ming Xu if this continued, but you still endured everything in the sixteenth branch family for him.
"Even when you fell into the Disaster Camp later, you had the chance to kill Ming Xu during the School Championship Competition, but you still chose to leave when faced with them. You've always loved him in your heart. When you love someone, once the seed of love is planted, even if you don't water it or care about it, it'll slowly absorb the nutrients and gradually grow into a towering tree. Once this feeling is born, it's hard to erase it. "
Lancelot exhaled deeply and looked at her with a smile.
"Otherwise, why are you still entangled with him now? You had the chance to kill him in the battle at the Great Wall of Disaster, but you didn't do it in the end. You waited until he grew to be a match for you, a Rank-A, before you launched the final attack.
"If that attack …"
"Enough, don't say anymore. I still like him, but so what? In his eyes, I'm a cruel woman whose ambition is greater than love. For my own power, I'm willing to abandon him and a relationship of more than ten years. I've abandoned my father, abandoned the Fei Family, and betrayed the human camp. Yet, I've lived like a clown. I'm even willing to become a Symbiote just to get to where you are. In his eyes, he must despise me. "
"Compared to his Ming Xu, compared to that Ming Xu who's willing to give up everything, I'm nothing." Fei Yujing scoffed, "In his heart, ten thousand of me can't compare to a single finger of Ming Xu."
"Haha, you're still jealous. You're still holding a grudge against him for not doing his best to stop you during the School Championship Competition, aren't you?" Lancelot chuckled softly. Looking at her changing expression, he lamented, "Are you thinking that as long as he's willing, you'll stop and follow him, even if there's Ming Xu? However, he shot you for Ming Xu. You've already begged him, but he still chose Ming Xu without hesitation. "
"So what if I am?" Fei Yujing raised her head. "Nobody can take away what I want."
"Poor thing. After losing him, you can only comfort yourself by saying that you want to make him into your collection. You'll use time to wear away his love for Ming Xu and make him realize that it's just a relationship with a time limit."
Lancelot spread his hands and finally said slowly, "I like you.
Because you're the same kind of person as me. I know what you're thinking, the truest one. "
Ming Xu is willing to give up everything for you, even his life. How do you know that I'm not willing?
"So, I believe that you can understand my love for Lily. Even if I have to kill her, only I can kill her with my own hands."
