Chapter 1397: Chapter 1397: Live and Die Together
Mu Ze saw that Xicheng was about to act and hurriedly said, "Brother Xicheng, wait a mont. I heard from Mu Feng that they seem to be the Sage Ruler and the Sage Empress of the Demon Sacred Realm."
Xicheng’s movents paused as he looked at Mu Ze, asking incredulously, "What did you say? Sage Ruler and Sage Empress?"
He then turned his head to stare at Ye You and Qin Sisi, and after a long ti, he asked in a deep voice, "Are you a descendant of the Phoenix?"
"Yes." Ye You replied firmly with a single word, which was enough to demonstrate his extraordinary noble lineage.
Xicheng took a deep breath and said, "I don’t want to harm the descendants of the Phoenix, but if you dare to act disrespectfully again, I don’t mind teaching you on behalf of the Phoenix."
Ye You slightly curled his lips, noncommittally, and shifted the topic back to the initial condition: "Deity, can we discuss the matter of the Life Divine Water carefully?"
Xicheng did not imdiately respond, hesitating in his heart. He indeed hoped to restore the water source, allowing his Mu Water Clan mbers to return to normal life—thus he could make ands to Mu Ze.
However, the Life Divine Water was a significant matter, and they had all once promised the Phoenix that it must not be given away until the Demon Sacred Realm was in a dire crisis.
Ye You, seeing him considering, also silently waited.
Qin Sisi recalled the two deities she had previously encountered and softly said: "Deity, I know you must have promised the Phoenix, but now it is truly a critical mont for the Demon Sacred Realm, and giving the Life Divine Water would not break the promise."
Xicheng’s expression darkened as he shouted, "Nonsense! The Demon Sacred Realm is fine; where is the crisis?"
Ye You followed Qin Sisi’s words and said, "I am the Sage Ruler of the Demon Sacred Realm, and I have no descendants. If I die, no one will be able to take control, and the Demon Sacred Realm will fall into chaos. Isn’t that a crisis?"
Xicheng frowned and asked, "It’s obvious she needs the Life Divine Water, so why are you suddenly talking about dying?"
Ye You imdiately retorted, "She is the person I love most. If she dies, I naturally won’t live alone. Deity, don’t you feel the sa? If Mu Ze died, could you continue living?"
Xicheng’s heart trembled as he turned to look at Mu Ze. Ye You rely made a hypothesis, but he already felt a deep pang of pain.
Ye You was right; if Mu Ze died, he wouldn’t be able to live either.
Perhaps that was one reason he couldn’t let Mu Ze die!
Mu Ze’s eyes turned sowhat moist, and with a hoarse voice, he said, "What virtues or abilities does Mu Ze have to receive such care from Brother Xicheng? Just thinking that the entire Mu Water Clan might be buried with , I can’t bear it."
Xicheng wiped Mu Ze’s tears with his sleeve and softly said, "No, it won’t happen. As you wish, the mbers of the Mu Water Clan will certainly continue to live well."
After speaking, he turned again to Qin Sisi and Ye You and asked, "Tell , have you obtained Life Divine Water before?"
Qin Sisi replied honestly, "Yes, before coming to the Deep Pupil Desert, we had already obtained the Life Divine Water from Hai Cangming and the Dark Witch."
Xicheng nodded. Since his colleagues had already handed over their Life Divine Water, it was nothing for him to do the sa.
He extended two fingers towards his brow, and a water-blue light emanated from them. Slowly, he pulled out a tiny, crystalline droplet from his brow and flicked it softly, letting it fall before Qin Sisi.
Qin Sisi was very familiar with this tiny droplet; it was indeed the Life Divine Water, with its radiant luster and abundant spiritual energy, just like the Life Divine Water obtained from the No Delusion Deep Sea and Dark Forest.
She opened her mouth and inhaled the Life Divine Water. The clear and comforting water source flowed through her throat into her body, and the rich spiritual power began to repair Qin Sisi’s fragile body.
While the Life Divine Water was being absorbed, Qin Sisi took out the Water Spirit Pearl and used Wind Attribute Magic Power to place it into a small crevice in the rock.
A mont later, clear water began to flow from the crevice. At first, it was just a small stream, as thick as a finger, but gradually it beca wider, as thick as a person’s wrist.
The high terrain of Kurosawa Highland caused a spring ford by the water source to continuously flow from the rocks, converging into a winding small river heading towards Stoning Plain.
However, unlike before, this water source did not flow to Stoning Plain to form a lake because Xicheng had dug a ring-shaped trench between Kurosawa Highland and Stoning Plain, gathering the water source from the Water Spirit Pearl into this trench, creating a unique ring-shaped lake.
Kurosawa Highland was surrounded by water sources, like a secluded and independent fairy island, with clouds shrouding the mountains and the enormous black castle vaguely visible. Stories of deities and heroes from the outside world would be passed down by the mbers of the Mu Water Clan, perpetually accompanied by this ring-shaped lake and the mysterious Kurosawa Highland.
Mu Ze contentedly watched all this. Three thousand years had passed, and the heavy burden he had carried for so long could finally be let go.
He looked at Xicheng, with a strange light flickering in his eyes, and slowly said, "Brother Xicheng, thank you. Now I have no regrets. Please let
die; staying in this world holds no aning for
anymore."
Xicheng gazed deeply into Mu Ze’s eyes and softly replied, "Alright, but how can you bear to leave
alone in this lonely world? We’ll go together."
"Brother Xicheng..." Mu Ze tried to stop Xicheng, but Xicheng covered his eyes and said in a deep voice, "Little Ze, do you know? Even the mighty deities can feel loneliness. You are the only person who doesn’t make
feel lonely. Don’t send
back to that lonely world. If that’s the case, I would rather I was never a deity."
Moisture rose in Mu Ze’s eyes once more, his lips moved slightly, but ultimately he said nothing more. If that’s the case, then let’s... live and die together!
Xicheng gently laid Mu Ze on the ground and then walked to Qin Sisi, placing a hand over his abdon, his brows tightly furrowed. Monts later, he surprisingly extracted a jewel emitting a blue glow.
"Is this... the Water Attribute Crystal Core?" Qin Sisi exclaid.
Xicheng had actually used Magic Power to access his Magic Source and extracted the Water Attribute Crystal Core from within. How painful that must have been!
At this mont, Xicheng’s face was frighteningly pale, and he gasped, saying, "I don’t need this anymore. In gratitude for saving the Mu Water Clan, I’ll give you this Crystal Core."
