Xuannü accepted the long sword and the pendant before her gaze suddenly sharpened, revealing a line of black characters on the spiral sword. She slowly read, "Such feelings would have sufficed for mories but were already confused at the ti."
At that mont, Zhou Bai also actively relinquished the ability of Greed Snatching.
In Xuannü's heart, the desire for the End of Dharma Heaven Deford Sword reignited and was simultaneously satisfied by the long sword in her hand.
As she looked at the verse written on the blade, feelings of joy, fulfillnt, and other complex emotions continuously flickered within her heart, their positive intensity reaching its peak.
"This feeling... am I moved because of Zhou Bai's apology?"
Xuannü lifted her head, her expression complex as she looked at Zhou Bai, "Did you write this?"
Christina exclaid in the sea of consciousness, "You can write poetry?"
Zhou Bai replied, "Sotis I even amaze myself with my own talent. I think I am inspired again, Elsa, please take this down... 'The sash gradually widens yet I regret not, for her sake I wither away...'"
In the real world, Zhou Bai smiled wryly, "One day, recalling the ti spent with you, I unconsciously wrote a bit. Back then, I thought you had died."
Xuannü's intelligence -20
Christina's intelligence -10
Elsa's intelligence -10
"Did it work?" Zhou Bai looked at the system panel for a prompt, then slowly spread his arms to embrace Xuannü, noticing she didn't resist.
"It worked." Zhou Bai hugged her tightly and, over Xuannü's shoulder in an angle she couldn't see, a slight smile gradually appeared on his face.
Zhou Bai whispered softly, "Xuannü, join in changing this world. To create a safe haven for our kind, I need your strength."
Xuannü looked at Zhou Bai unexpectedly, "You previously disagreed…"
Zhou Bai shook his head, "My old teachers, classmates, friends... by now they probably see as a target for vengeance, wishing they could tear to pieces, no?"
Zhou Bai continued, "After all, I am a deford being, not a human."
He looked at Xuannü and sighed, "Now, you are my only remaining family."
Xuannü bowed her head, sighing softly, "You are all I have left too."
But thinking of Zhou Bai's past actions, she felt both fearful and helpless as she asked, "Zhou Bai, you're not lying to , right?"
Facing her worried gaze, Zhou Bai replied, "Of course not."
In the sea of consciousness, Christina scoffed disdainfully, "Huh, n."
Xuannü slowly spoke, her previously forcefully tough exterior now fully stripped away, appearing much more vulnerable, "Zhou Bai, you said it... promise , never lie to . If I find out you lied again, I don't know what I might beco, you are the last person I can trust now."
Zhou Bai paused slightly, then quickly smiled and said, "I will never lie to you again."
In that mont, Zhou Bai regained Xuannü's trust. He looked at her and said, "I like who you were before. Can you go back to that?"
"Mhm."
Xuannu's body slowly changed, already reverting to her original appearance, her exquisitely beautiful face radiating light like the sun in Zhou Bai's eyes, providing a strong visual impact.
Zhou Bai thought to himself, "This way, Xuannu can provide with both luck and visual impact. Using the identity of a deford being to wield the End of Dharma Heaven Deford Sword and Abyss Nether Dragon Armor, she will indeed be a formidable force."
As his turbulent emotions gradually cald, Xuannu sat alone on the side, stroking the End of Dharma Heaven Deford Sword while pondering over the events that had just occurred.
"Zhou Bai... this is the last ti, the very last ti I'll trust you. Don't fail my trust in you."
Inside the sea of consciousness, Christina watched from beginning to end and shook her head with a sigh, "Ah, this Xuannu is too naive, probably not even half as wise as I am."
Elsa asked curiously while taking notes, "Zhou Bai, Zhou Bai, was everything you said to Xuannu a lie?"
"Of course it was," Zhou Bai said calmly in his mind, "I am rely making temporary use of Xuannu's power. Whether it's her luck, her visual impact, or her aberrant abilities, they are all powers I need."
"Immortals, gods, even possibly Heavenly Demons and demons... I may have to confront too many enemies in the future. I need to utilize every entity that can make stronger, even if it ans being unscrupulous."
The scene of human extinction slowly erged again in Zhou Bai's heart, haunting him like a nightmare, constantly resurfacing from the depths of his mind.
He said to himself, 'If Li Tai were still alive, he would likely be unimaginably powerful; I need the power to defeat him, a stronger power.'
Feeling that Xuannu had temporarily trusted him, Zhou Bai entrusted her to wield the End of Dharma Heaven Deford Sword indefinitely and decided to take Xuannu to the location of the original Daoist repository 06.
Zhou Bai decided, "Take both the Emperor Sword and Xuannu with ; Em can stay here."
Xuannu asked curiously, "The original Daoist repository 06?"
"Yes, you know that even after my deformity, I can still practice the Taoist techniques and wield the power of immortals," Zhou Bai explained.
"As long as we can find the original Daoist repository 06, I can continue to grow stronger. Only by continually mastering greater powers can we carve out a realm of our own in this world."
Xuannu nodded, "I understand. I will help you get the original Daoist repository 06."
The two concealed themselves in the clouds, flying slowly, and after several hours, they approached the location coordinates.
But from afar, they could see a massive palace accompanied by auspicious clouds, suspended midway in the sky above the target. Countless streams of light moved up and down, resembling a working colony of ants.
"The Heavenly Court?" Zhou Bai sighed slightly at this sight, "It seems the intelligence about my cultivation of the original Daoist repository has already been reported. I wonder how Dao School is doing now."
Zhou Bai knew his departure had a significant impact on both the Dao School and mortals. Yet, with the Heavenly Demon's actions back then—submissive and protective towards Zhou Bai—he had no choice but to leave.
Even if he stayed, he would inevitably undermine Dao School, and he himself would be dissected by immortals in many ways.
Looking at the distant palace in the sky, Zhou Bai thought intently, 'If the target was really against , they must have dispatched immortals and gods; I wonder who it could be?'
Thinking this, Zhou Bai first moved to a distant spot to land on the ground, finding a place to hide with Xuannu.
"Wait here for . I will perform the Primordial Spirit Ergence to gather so intelligence and check what's happening over there."
The next mont, Zhou Bai's Primordial Spirit erged, accompanied by nine light halos behind his head. With a slight flicker, it transford into a wisp of blue smoke and drifted off into the distance.
After traveling more than ten kiloters, Zhou Bai could see cultivators flying in mid-air, using Taoist techniques to excavate the soil and stone.
Using cultivators as excavators was a luxurious thod, and the efficiency was extrely high. When Zhou Bai arrived, he discovered they had already excavated a giant pit, more than a hundred ters deep, appearing like a canyon before Zhou Bai.
