The Path to Redemption
That day, a beam of light shone in from the abyss.
The drowning person was grabbed by a hand, as if grasping a lifeline.
"My name is Li Yuan."
Upon hearing Li Yuan's words, Liu Yue was taken aback at first, then burst out laughing. "My Liu Yue, you can also call me June."
Hearing June's laughter, Li Yuan simply let his mind go blank and lay down.
He lay down on Liu Yue's lap. He didn't want to think right now; he just wanted to stay here quietly for a while, preferably without being disturbed.
After clearing his mind and not thinking about anything, Li Yuan experienced a rare feeling of relief.
In fact, ever since Mo plotted against him last time, Li Yuan's mind had already become somewhat paranoid.
Excessive thinking, constant doubt, and an endless chain of suspicion.
Even the fifth-tier spirit was somewhat fatigued.
Looking at Li Yuan lying in her arms, Liu Yue smiled. She sat there, occasionally playing with the few strands of Li Yuan's hair that were being blown by the sea breeze.
Who cares about becoming a god or a saint, who cares about the future, who cares about failure or victory? All they want to do right now is enjoy the present.
Even Chen Ye, who witnessed everything from the shadows, couldn't help but feel a pang of envy.
That's really interesting.
"Why don't we find a chance to kill Hydra?" Chen Ye suddenly wondered if he would like to see Li Yuan's expression after Hydra died.
That damned God of Pleasure is looking for new fun again.
But...
Let's just let it go this time.
As the sun set, Li Yuan fell asleep peacefully.
He had a dream in which he and Liu Yue reached the sixth level a thousand years later, and afterwards, they had many children.
They govern a galaxy, and they are called gods.
There was no more war, no more endless scheming.
This dream was both long and short.
Li Yuan opened his eyes; the bright moon hung overhead, and it was already late.
"Woke up?"
Li Yuan stretched, and his turbid mind became clear. He remembered when was the last time he had slept.
Never mind, I can't remember.
Are you leaving?
Upon hearing Liu Yue's words, Li Yuan closed his eyes again. "No... I suddenly don't want to deal with things over there anymore."
"Let things take their course. I just want to stay here a little longer."
Liu Yue: "So how long do you want to stay?"
Li Yuan: "It would be best... forever."
Liu Yue laughed, "Then what about your and Angel's plan? If he comes back and sees you lying around like this, won't he be furious?"
Li Yuan chuckled lightly, "Then let him go mad."
The Lord of the Red Flow came to find Li Yuan, witnessed everything in secret.
Looking at Li Yuan and Liu Yue, Li Heng, the Lord of the Red Flow, silently disappeared from their side. Suddenly, the towering red mist gathered in one place and transformed into a man.
"Actually, I can turn back into a human." Li Heng smiled and shook his head.
Although it only looks like a person and is essentially a cloud of fog, at least it looks like a person.
"Pack your things and withdraw the troops."
World Calendar 450.
Throughout the long battle, the Frost King's forces and the Ocean Army fought fiercely, while Nairasojin clashed with the giant serpent several times.
The giant snake went back to get the book, Nairasojin also went back to get the artifact from 009.
The two fought a long, long battle with their props, exchanging blows and countering each other's moves. Orochi had a great time, but 009 lost most of his divine artifacts.
009 cannot split now, while Orochi is constantly creating clones. 009 really can't afford to waste time with him.
The great serpent was quite sensible; the books he used weren't particularly top-tier.
He almost never used books like Revelation.
Because those books are so powerful and effective, they can cause the world to collapse and all forces, friend or foe, to be wiped out if one is not careful.
Also, he was afraid Chen Ye would come down and beat him.
The crown wasn't important to the giant snake, but Chen Ye was truly terrifying.
Because Li Yuan did not give orders, Li Yuan fourth-rank subordinates did not take any action.
To be honest, those fourth-tier familiars are really a bit weak. They can defeat lower-tier ones if they are of higher rank, but they are no match for White Walkers if they are of the same rank.
If they die, they will be converted into fighting power by the White Walkers.
So the two sides remained locked in this stalemate, and who knows where Li Yuan went.
On the other side, the Central Continent.
Angel Mo seems to have stirred up a hornet's nest. While he was fighting the trio, powerful figures from the Dragon Empire suddenly intervened in the war.
Then Meng Qing's fourth-tier subordinates also arrived, and most strangely, even Qin Leng's retinue came to join the fun.
Their target was Angel Mo.
Since Kalen is Qin Leng's man, it is only natural for him to provide support.
Including the Frost King now, if it really comes to a life-or-death situation, he will naturally help the Frost King deal with Li Yuan.
So now, Angel Mo is in the same situation as Li Yuan.
Caught in a dilemma, the situation is deadlocked.
Lin Feng and Chen Yuan were just going through the motions; if they had put in a little more effort, things wouldn't have gotten to this point.
Meanwhile, Dragon Sui, who had been wandering for many years, returned to the Longwu Empire, bringing Dragon Crystal with him.
As they trudged through ruins, the battered and bruised Dragon Sui struggled to walk, with Dragon Crystal ahead of him.
Dragon Crystal has grown up, with long, snow-white hair and skin, and very bright, lively eyes that are always looking around and never still.
Dragon Sui returned this time not for any other reason, but because... he was going to die.
He fought countless battles along the way, confronting foreign enemies armed with firearms head-on, and even escaped from Adolf's double guns.
They accidentally discovered a group of black magicians who had betrayed Meng Qing.
The group of dark magicians coveted the Dragon Crystal and wanted to capture it for research, but in the end, the Dragon Sui destroyed the entire group of dark magicians.
He went north again and encountered giants. He fought with the giants, and their hot blood tore his skin open.
Later, he was besieged by the Zerg and nearly lost his life.
Looking back on this journey, it's more accurate to say that I've been battered and bruised rather than gained much.
He sensed that his time was coming to an end, but he was already prepared for it.
He can die if he wants, but he can't die outside, he can't die in a foreign land, he wants to die in the place where he was born.
"Brother, you're too slow."
Dragon Crystal turned to Dragon Sui and said something. Dragon Sui's pupils were somewhat unfocused. He was about to speak when Dragon Crystal came to his side and helped him up.
"Let me help you walk slowly."
Dragon Crystal (One of the Seven Sons of the Dragon God)
"Speaking of which, this should be the first time I've consciously seen the Father God and Mother Goddess. I'm so excited, but also a little nervous. What should I say then, brother?"
Dragon Sui didn't say anything, and let Dragon Crystal help him walk slowly.
As a result, they encountered an ambush halfway there. These ambush soldiers were Dragon Blood Descendant, but they had betrayed them and turned against 009.
They were armed with advanced weapons, and immediately raised them upon seeing the Dragon Sui.
"Hey, look what I found! A half-dead wild Divine Descendant, hahaha!"
"How much is our General Dragon Sui Chong's bounty again?"
"If I remember correctly, there were eight hundred gold coins, right?"
"That's great! Today I'll bring my brothers to kill a Divine Descendant for fun!"
Seeing those Dragon Blood Descendant, Dragon Crystal frowned. "Traitors again. You are clearly Dragon Blood Descendant, yet you turn against your own kind, betraying your master for personal gain. What is your purpose?"
Upon hearing Dragon Crystal's words, one of the Dragon Blood Descendant laughed and said, "That's right, we are all Dragon Blood Descendant, so why are you so high and mighty, born superior to others?"
"Why should we risk our lives without hesitation just because you say the word?"
"Stop talking nonsense, the Divine Descendant are not to be trifled with, let's get straight to the Scale-Piercing Bullet!"
One of them took out an oversized gun and loaded a bullet with a spiral pattern into the chamber!
Upon seeing this, Dragon Sui pulled Dragon Crystal behind him!
Bang!
The bullet left the barrel and struck Dragon Sui in the back!
Pfft!
The bullet pierced through the Dragon Sui's scales and embedded itself firmly in his flesh; this was something provided by 009.
It is specifically designed to deal with these heavily armored Dragon Blood Descendant.
Seeing Dragon Sui step forward to shield her from the bullet, Dragon Crystal was stunned for a moment, "Brother, why are you here again? I can do it..."
Dragon Sui shook his head, then slowly raised his hand, but unexpectedly another bullet came flying at him, giving him no chance at all!
Seeing this, Dragon Crystal's eyes narrowed, and he immediately unleashed his dragon claw to shred the bullets.
Before the Dragon Blood Descendant could react, a missile suddenly fell from the sky and hit them squarely!
Boom!
With a loud bang, several Dragon Blood Descendant were blown to pieces.
Seeing this, Dragon Sui seemed to remember something and slowly reached out to grab Dragon Crystal's shoulder.
"Little sister... can you promise me something?"
"No matter what the Mother Goddess says to you, after you have seen the Father God and the Mother Goddess, leave this place immediately, and then... never come back."
