Yang Kai’s interruption broke the tension, causing Li Li to let out a giggle.
At that mont, you slowly walked over to her side and, as usual, reached out to gently stroke her head, "Little Luli, we will always be your family."
Li Li looked up, batting her long eyelashes and nodding slightly.
"Luli, co here!" Suyi’s face turned even colder, and a chilling intent to kill wrapped around everyone, as if the slightest motion would lead to their imdiate execution!
However, Luli hesitated: "Mother..."
"If you still recognize as your mother, then co here!"
Luli looked up at you, then back at Suyi, tears streaming uncontrollably: "Mother, please don’t hurt father anymore. Luli knows how you feel about father, Luli also knows that father is your only one. Despite everyone’s objections, you chose to be with father and suffered a lot, so much... but... but..."
Luli didn’t know what to do anymore; even though she had lived for thousands of years and possessed the power to destroy heaven and earth, she had always seen herself as a child, understanding everything from the perspective of a child.
Originally, she thought that resurrecting her mother would an a complete family and the loving care of her parents, but what she received instead was even more trouble and pain.
After a long silence, you once again lifted your head to et Suyi’s gaze.
The situation was clear by now; putting the troubled Luli aside, even if you and the Empress joined forces, you would not be a match for Suyi—she was an invincible presence to you all.
The outco of a direct confrontation would be only death!
Death was not fearso to you, but what was terrifying was letting Zhao’er, who had only recently developed consciousness, vanish.
You might not have listened carefully to Yun Chu and Suyi’s story, but even so, you could guess the gist. Although you didn’t know what kind of deed they had committed to end up chased by all the Heavenly Gods, neglecting other factors, their spirit alone deserved your sincere respect.
If this matter did not involve Zhao’er, you would have stood by them risking everything. But now, Suyi was inhabiting Zhao’er’s body!
Wait, the body?
The body!
Couldn’t you just create another body for Zhao’er?
The Sen Luo Eye—there was nothing in this world that the Sen Luo Eye couldn’t do!
You looked at Suyi with composure and said aloud, "How about we make a trade?"
Suyi’s expression beca stern: "Speak!"
After taking a deep breath, you said to Suyi, "I know that everything you do is for Yun Chu, I understand and can relate to how you feel because I am trying to save Zhao’er with the sa sentint. For her, I am willing to give up everything!"
"Hmph, easy for you to say!" Suyi’s face was full of disdain, "You think you could really stand in for him just because you look sowhat like Yun Chu?"
"No, you’re wrong, I cannot beco him, nor do I want to. I am ."
You looked steadfastly at Suyi and continued, "Na your condition. I have no other requests other than to have Zhao’er’s consciousness returned to , so I can create a new body for her!"
Hearing this, Suyi’s expression hardened as she coldly said, "I fear you would not dare agree to my condition!"
"Speak!"
You knew that the matter was like an arrow loosed from the bow; there was no turning back now. You had to stand your ground to the end!
"Give the Sen Luo Eye!"
Your eyes trembled, and without a second thought, you replied, "Done! It’s a deal!"
"No!"
The Empress opposed it imdiately.
"Opposition is invalid!" Without even looking at the Empress, Yun coldly spat out four words.
"This is not sothing you can be capricious about. Do you understand that if you surrender the Sen Luo Eye, what you’ll lose isn’t just an eye, but very likely your life!"
"I know."
At that mont, Yun’s voice was very calm, as calm as the mountain mist gently drifting through the air.
The skies were starting to darken.
This June weather was always so changeable.
"You know and yet you still do this?" The Empress’s words clearly carried anger, "Li Muyun, your life isn’t just yours alone!"
Turning to look at the Empress with a slight smile, for the first ti, Yun revealed such a warm smile to her.
The Empress was clearly taken aback, turning her head away, not daring to et Yun’s gaze.
"Empress, thank you. This... is not a complint, but from the bottom of my heart."
"Hmph!" The Empress huffed coldly, obviously displeased with the way Yun addressed her.
"I know I’m being capricious, but I have no choice because I must do this. As I said before, my life isn’t my own, it belongs to everyone."
Touching his nose and smiling, Yun continued, "But what about Zhao’er? She changed my destiny. Without her, I wouldn’t know where in so corner of the world my life might end, nor could I have imagined that there are such dazzling and brilliant things in this world."
Yun turned to look at Xiao Feng and the others, "Friendship."
Then, looking at Li Li who turned to look back at him, "Familial love."
Lastly turning to Wu Qiyi, "Romantic love."
All along, Wu Qiyi hadn’t said much. Her stunningly beautiful face carried a faint smile, and at that mont, she seed to have seen through everything.
QMuir heart always understood, felt, and grasped Yun’s intentions in real ti; it could be said that your hearts were connected.
"If giving up the Sen Luo Eye can save Zhao’er, then it’s worth it," Yun smiled at the Empress. "And besides, didn’t you just say? It’s possible. Since it’s uncertain, that ans there’s a certain chance I can survive. Even if I die, at worst I’ll haunt you guys as a ghost every day."
Seeing Yun so insistent, the Empress coldly flicked her sleeve, "Enough, if that is your wish, I won’t waste any more words!"
The Empress once again referred to herself as ’I’, giving Yun a deep, lingering look before her figure instantly vanished into the air.
Turning to Suyi, "Where is Zhao’er?"
Suyi, clearly moved by Yun’s words just now, spoke without the iciness in her voice, still maintaining a distant deanor: "Her soul has fused with mine. To separate her, your Three Souls and Seven Spirits are required. Are you sure you want to do this? Even with the Sen Luo Eye, the chances of success aren’t high. I’m afraid in the end, both you and Zhao’er may perish."
Bowing his head slightly, Yun smiled faintly, no longer uttering another word of nonsense.
Seeing this, Suyi slightly nodded and said, "Let make it clear in advance, the mont I find you can’t control the Sen Luo Eye and your Three Souls and Seven Spirits start to scatter, I will imdiately take back the Sen Luo Eye!"
"I understand."
With that, Yun slowly closed his eyes.
"Co on!"
