Chapter 142

After finishing dinner, Xiao Xiao's mouth was still greasy, and Dianya handed her a napkin. The atmosphere at the table was very harmonious.

After dinner, Bai Cai, Xiao Xiao, and Dianya went back to their dormitory to Rest.

Xiao Xiao cultivates at night, as does Bai Cai, while Dianya cultivates during the day. Their schedules are completely different. Normally, what they call Rest is simply their own cultivation.

However, just as Bai Cai sat back down in the middle of the bed and closed her eyes to meditate, Dianya quickly moved to her left and rubbed her face against hers.

"One more night."

"Consider it... a proper meal?"

While fiddling with the snow-white frost-like silk and the apricot-colored pendant, her voice was exceptionally sweet, as if guiding something.

"I have so many clothes—dresses, suits, dresses, school uniforms—why get them all dirty at once?"

"Mouth and teeth!"

On the right side of the bed, Xiao Xiao's face quickly turned crimson, "Sister cheated!"

"Silence means agreement."

Dianya kissed him cheek to cheek, gently sticking out her tongue as she removed the Bai Cai's clothes.

"Sister, stop for a moment."

Xiao Xiao looked at the Bai Cai, her voice filled with fear, "Just now..."

Is Xiao Xiao coming?

Dianya glanced to the side, "A sticker?"

"Perhaps it's just my imagination..."

Xiao Xiao closed her eyes, "Sister, shall we go first?"

"Come on, all of you."

The Bai Cai summoned Lilith, its expression quite kind.

The third Soul Ring, which had been around for ten thousand years, shone brightly, and a dark abyss spread out from the bed. Dianya Xiao Xiao both fainted.

Snowflakes rustled, white frost blanketed the sky, and a few snowflakes landed on the tip of Xiao Xiao's nose, instantly waking her up.

"This is..."

The silver mirror covered her ankles and even reflected her own image. Xiao Xiao looked around; Dianya was leaning against her side, still asleep.

"The spiritual world."

The Bai Cai revealed its form, standing facing the silver mirror, turning its head to look at Xiao Xiao, "My spiritual world."

"Your inner world?"

Xiao Xiao froze, "Me and Sister Tina..."

Dianya suddenly opened her eyes and quickly looked around. "This is..."

"The spiritual world."

Bai Cai repeated, "My inner world."

"My inner world can shield him from his gaze, but you cannot."

"Exit?"

Bai Cai asked, "If I quit, the dream will still remain."

Even the most beautiful dream is still an illusion.

Dianya responded.

Xiao Xiao looked at the Bai Cai with a very determined gaze.

"Ten thousand years ago, the continent was very peaceful. The two great empires occasionally competed, the Spirit Hall imprisoned Evil Soul Master, and numerous sects existed."

"However, the other side of peace is corruption. The two great empires jointly exploit the common people, not only imposing heavy taxes but also suppressing commoner Soul Master. Commoner Soul Master rely mostly on the Spirit Hall to awaken their Martial Soul Master Soul Hunting beasts."

"The Spirit Hall forced the two great empires to pay subsidies, and in return, the Spirit Hall kept Soul Beast to supply ordinary Soul Master."

"The allowance isn't much, and the types of Soul Beast we keep are limited, and their lifespans are also short, but it's enough and we don't have any specific needs for them."

"At that time, a young man left the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, one of the Upper Three Sects; at that time, two brothers from the Clear Sky Sect, Upper Three Sects, went out to travel."

"A young man who left his sect encountered a young woman, and they gradually fell in love."

"Two brothers who were out traveling encountered a young girl and fell in love at first sight."

Bai Cai's expression remained calm. "However, they are very unfortunate."

"The first boy is from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, a mutated off-body creature with congenital deficiencies; the first girl is the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall, Twin Martial Souls and top-tier Martial Soul."

"The young man hopes to make a name for himself and then return to his sect, while the young woman hopes to live together with him, even at the cost of leaving the Spirit Hall."

"The girl's teacher kept her in his grasp through violation and coercion."

Xiao Xiao suddenly turned to look at Dianya.

Dianya smiled.

Xiao Xiao snapped out of her daze, her gaze falling to her toes, a hint of fear welling up within her.

If I ever get myself drugged with alcohol, there will definitely be more corpses in the dormitory the next day.

Bai Cai paused, "Skipping the middle part, over the past ten thousand years, the continent has even regressed a lot, resulting in the blood and tears of ordinary Soul Master."

"Awakening costs are exorbitant, and the forests for raising Soul Beast are scarce and equally expensive, forcing ordinary Soul Master to become vassals or even sell themselves out."

"Shrek's elite strategy has been Mimic by many academies, and commoner academies have basically disappeared, but there are still many commoner Soul Master."

"They crave money, they crave Soul Ring; they can only invade the forest, they can only create conflict."

"Soul Master who yearn for change, Soul Master who yearn for advancement, Soul Beast who yearn for change, Soul Beast who yearn for revenge."

"The blood-stained soil breeds hatred and conflict; the blood-stained foundation brings sin and punishment."

Looking back at Dianya, then turning to Xiao Xiao, Bai Cai declared, "Change has come."

After a long pause, snowflakes filled the sky.

"Team leader."

Xiao Xiao asked, "Can change bring peace? Can change quell hatred?"

"No."

Bai Cai denied this, saying, "If blood and tears dry up on one side while nature remains peaceful on the other, the soil, having absorbed the blood and tears, will inevitably breed hatred."

Dianya asked, "He..."

"He is on the side of the gods, he is on the side of the sect."

Bai Cai spoke haltingly, "The greater the wounds of the empire, the more blood and tears the common people shed. The more they rely on the gods and the more they rely on the sects, the more holy the gods become, and the more prosperous the sects become."

"Soul Master parasitizing commoners, Soul Master Parasitic Soul Beast, Empires parasitizing commoners, Sects parasitizing Soul Master, Gods parasitizing the world."

Bai Cai looked at Xiao Xiao and said, "It's deformed and ugly."

"So?"

Dianya asked, "Conquer the world through change?"

"No."

Bai Cai remained remarkably calm, saying, "Through reform, we can shatter the world; through reform, we can reshape the world. We can remove Soul Ring and time limits, allowing Soul Master to cultivate freely and Soul Beast to live freely."

Snowflakes fell on the tip of the Bai Cai, quickly turning into a few specks of white dew.

Xiao Xiao froze completely. "Remove the Soul Ring... free cultivation..."

"Extremely dangerous."

Dianya spoke up, "So, let Xiao Xiao wait ten years, and let us wait ten years."

"Yes."

Bai Cai's expression was complicated. "But things have already..."

"Marry."

Dianya smiled, "Let's get married together."

Xiao Xiao snapped out of her daze, "Aba aba?"

"Just a reason."

Dianya smiled. "Since the Sucker Punch, the academy has been very strict in its management. Moreover, Xiao Xiao comes from a sect, while I am the head of the Belun family. There are many things I cannot control."

Xiao Xiao spoke up, "My matter..."

"Can."

Bai Cai replied, "However, I must conceal the memory of what just happened. I'm sorry."

"I can guess that they not only entered the spiritual world, but also ignored his affairs."

Snowflakes rustled, the silver mirror shimmered, and Dianya leaned close to the Bai Cai, saying, "There are many reasons, many, many more."

"The future is scarce."

Bai Cai hugged Dianya, "Sweet dream."

Dianya Xiao Xiao immediately fainted.

The morning sunlight was gentle.

Xiao Xiao opened her eyes and looked to her left; her snow-white frost was perfectly smooth.

Are you sleepy?

The Bai Cai turned halfway to the side, opened its eyes and looked at Xiao Xiao, the pendant pressed into the frost-like silk.

Xiao Xiao looked confused. "I remember..."

"Go to sleep."

Bai Cai hugged Xiao Xiao, "You're sleepy."

"I'm so sleepy..."

Xiao Xiao naturally closed her eyes.
