Chapter 1070: Chapter 1070: The Belief in Love
If the Soul Taker lody had reached the pinnacle of perfection, the Devouring Sky Golden Python wouldn’t have struggled in its final monts. It should have quietly slipped into death while in slumber.
Fortunately, these minor flaws did not affect the ultimate outco. No matter what, they had finally won, and victory was the best result.
Grandma Mad looked at Qin Sisi, her eyes sowhat cloudy, but now they brimd with excitent and joy. While amazed by the Music Magic, her respect and admiration for Qin Sisi deepened even more.
Utterly exhausted, Qin Sisi swallowed a Spirit Revitalizing Pill. Without waiting for the pill to fully take effect, she rushed to the ice block. She released the Fire Attribute Magic Power and lted the ice, causing the body of the Devouring Sky Golden Python to lie limply among the grass.
Without hesitation, she cleaved the forehead of the Devouring Sky Golden Python, and indeed, inside was a shining Magic Crystal Stone, shimring with a dark light. It was of the Gold Attribute, perfect for Qin Sisi’s use. The Devouring Sky Golden Python was a Sixth Order Demonic Beast, so the Magic Crystal Stone was also Level Six, and the Spiritual Energy it emitted was rich.
A smile spread across Qin Sisi’s face. After this life-and-death ordeal, she had finally gained sothing worthwhile.
After a mont of thought, she turned to Grandma Mad and said, "Grandma, this Gold Attribute Magic Crystal is of no use to you, but it’s very useful to . Could you give it to ?"
Grandma Mad said with a smile, "You killed the demonic beast; of course, you can take it."
Qin Sisi shook her head modestly, "Without your help, grandma, I could not have done it. Since you’re so generous, I shall not stand on ceremony. Thank you, grandma."
She stored the Magic Crystal Stone away and took out a Level Five Ice Attribute Magic Crystal from her storage ring and handed it to Grandma Mad, "Grandma, this is of no use to , so I’m giving it to you!"
A gleam flashed in Grandma Mad’s eyes. Although she had reached the level of a High-level Magic Spirit, her Magic Skills were very singular due to lack of systematic training, and her overall strength was not considered powerful. Hence, she did not dare to venture deep into the forest to hunt Demonic Beasts or gather Magic Crystal Stones, nor did she have enough Spirit Stones to buy them. Opportunities to enhance her Magic Power were scarce.
Ice Magic was her greatest reliance, and this Ice Attribute Magic Crystal was like tily aid amidst snow for her.
"This... How could I accept this? It’s too precious," Grandma Mad stamred with agitation.
Qin Sisi pressed the Ice Attribute Magic Crystal into Grandma Mad’s hand, saying, "Take it. You can make the most of its value."
Being straightforward herself, Grandma Mad saw Qin Sisi’s sincerity and accepted the Magic Crystal with a word of thanks.
Her thoughts were simple: she had co to seek refuge with Ye You and Qin Sisi. With enhanced strength, she could do more for Ye You in the future.
Qin Sisi then went over to the Devouring Sky Golden Python, collected all of its golden scales, placed them into a bag, and stored them in the storage ring. She rembered reading that the scales of the Devouring Sky Golden Python were suitable materials for forging.
By then, dusk had fallen, and a somber shadow veiled the dense forest. The darkness might harbor many more unknown dangers.
After discussing with Grandma Mad, they decided to stay in the area overnight and figure out a way to find an exit the next day.
This area was the territory of the Devouring Sky Golden Python. With such a ferocious creature dominating the region, other Demonic Beasts would not dare to encroach easily. Relatively speaking, this place should be safe. The now-deceased Devouring Sky Golden Python ironically beca a token ensuring their safety.
Qin Sisi found a large tree with thick branches and lush foliage. She tied sturdy vines to a robust branch above and finally made two hammocks. This would be the resting place for her and Grandma Mad tonight.
The night deepened, the sky was moonless, yet countless stars twinkled above, while the surrounding quietude was only broken by the tireless songs of little insects.
Qin Sisi, lying in the hammock, finally put forth the questions in her heart to Grandma Mad: who was she? Why had she suddenly co from Heavenly Magic God’s Castle to Taiyi Mountain?
Qin Sisi had an inkling that Grandma Mad’s appearance was no coincidence.
Gazing into the vast night sky, Grandma Mad rembered the days of many years past when she had accompanied the young lady on her travels, spending nights together in a tree, together looking up at the stars, chatting back and forth as if they were sisters close in heart.
Perhaps due to repressed emotions for too long, as the familiar scene unfolded, Grandma Mad felt an urge to pour out her heart.
She finally confided everything to Qin Sisi: her identity, her connection to the Jiuxi Royal Family, the love and hatred between Sage Ruler Ruiyan and Patroness Lengcan, the reason for her presence in Heavenly Magic God’s Castle, and her purpose for coming to Taiyi Mountain.
"You were Patroness Lengcan’s servant?" Although Qin Sisi had guessed that Grandma Mad might have an extraordinary background, this revelation still surprised her.
"Yes," Grandma Mad said with a hoarse voice, "Patroness Lengcan is the grandmother of Lord Ye You."
Qin Sisi nodded, the tales of the past, which Ye You had ntioned when he spoke of the identity of Tian Xiaozi, were known to her, albeit secondhand. The hearts of the Jiuxi Royal Family might lean slightly more towards Sage Ruler Ruiyan through the oral tradition.
Now hearing the story from the perspective of Grandma Mad, who had personally experienced those tis, Qin Sisi could vividly sense the joy, rage, sorrow, and pleasure of that beautiful yet haughty woman.
She, too, had once been innocent and carefree, holding supre faith in love until that fateful night shattered all her dreams of love, marriage, beauty, and happiness into fragnts; even her noble status beca a source of sha in her eyes.
Deep love begets intense hatred, it’s not that she didn’t wish to forgive, but that she found it utterly impossible to do so.
What she had possessed from childhood had always been perfect. When a flaw appeared and that perfection was marred, she would rather discard everything.
If not one hundred percent, then it amounted to zero.
This was the pride and belief of a proud woman regarding love.
Qin Sisi dared not to judge her thoughts and actions; no one can truly empathize with others, as no one else could feel her pain and despair at that ti.
If she were to face similar events, Qin Sisi did not know what she would do, and she might not necessarily be more magnanimous than her.
The image of Ye You surfaced in her mind. She wondered what he was doing now. Did he know she was in danger? Would he co to rescue her?
If he knew Aunt i had hard her, would he be willing to help her take revenge?
Would he bear to hurt the woman who had provided him with much warmth during his youth?
