Chapter 1170: Karmic Ties
Feiyun had already recalled Di Zhong and the Regal Sacred Jade back when Shui Yueting was still fighting against Shaman Crow.
He was the only one floating in space, staring at her. She was as pure and beautiful as a snowflake. She didn’t look over twenty with flowing long hair and a graceful figure. She possessed an overwhelming nobility that left others breathless in addition to her otherworldly beauty.n(-0velBIn
She still had the aura of a dragonslayer, enough to cause others to tremble in horror.
Feiyun, on the other hand, met her gaze while trying to calm down.
After a while, she seemed to be slightly annoyed and said: “You are the person in Fo Canzi’s prophecy. Since you’re here, I will give you Heaven Jewel.”
He didn’t expect the conversation to start in this manner.
‘Does she not recognize my true identity?’
‘No, she must know given her cultivation.’
Shui Yueting raised her hand and a seven-sided jewel with seven colors appeared. It possessed a dazzling white light with a Buddhist affinity. There were marks of mighty Buddhist cultivators.
However, he only stared at her and saw that she was emotionless. The owner of this face once rested in his embrace with a smile before delivering the fatal blow through his heart.
She noticed his expression; his eyes were full of love, hate, rage, and other complicated emotions.
“Wake up!” She shouted.
The words erupted in his mind and erased all of the emotions and unnecessary thoughts.
“Those capable of reaching Heaven’s Emergence are stronger than both humans and demons for they possess the gifts of both races. Now, the population is plentiful but since they believe themselves to be wretched, they fall into submission and slavery. They need a legend to pull them out of the darkness and you are the most suitable.” She continued.
“Is that why you sent Yiyi to find me?” He asked.
“Only one of the reasons. At that time, you have not broken the curse and were no different from a speck of dust, not qualified to stand before me.” She said.
This was merely the truth, not arrogance. Even pseudo-saints were nothing to her.
She spent this much time on him due to first, their karmic ties. Secondly, he had broken the curse and became a legend for the half-demons. He was equal to the clan master of a race now and was qualified to speak to her.
“The calamity is coming and the only way to survive is by gathering all potential forces. Half-demons are a mighty branch, if they can break through Heaven’s Emergence, more majestic cultivators will appear. In the past, this race was capable of producing someone as great as Saint Nuwa, the same can be repeated in the future. We need someone this strong to bring us hope.” She elaborated.
“I understand now, you have been searching for a method. Was Grandpa Yu part of your plan?” Feiyun asked.
“He was a failed experiment.” She admitted.
“Do you know that your failed experiment caused him to go insane and kill his own family?” He asked.
She paused for a moment before responding: “Worth it.”
“Worth it?”
“Sacrifices are necessary for the greater cause.” She said.
“Is that why you sacrificed billions in Aquamoon just to bait out the descendants of the foreign invaders?” He asked courageously.
“If I didn’t do so, the conference could have marked an end for the human race. Billions for a chance of survival, it is worth it.” She resembled a young maiden yet her voice carried absolute conviction.
In reality, he didn’t think that there was a problem with her decision either and would have made the same choice.
