The Finality and Origin of Manifestation, Sisters' Night Talk

At this moment, at a certain stronghold of the Holy Spirit Cult.

As one of the hidden strongholds guarded by the Four Great Dark Heavenly Kings, this place could be described as both quiet and dangerous.

However, at this very moment, the Dark Phoenix Leng Yulai, who was stationed at this stronghold, was currently deep in a profound slumber within her own room.

"No... don't... Sister, could it be that you, too...? No, have you forgotten what Ming Yue said?"

"Liar. You big liar. You promised that we would be together forever and ever, Ming Yue... sob... Sister... sob... Ming Yue..."

Vague, indistinct sobs drifted intermittently from the couch. As if reaching a certain breaking point, Leng Yulai, who had been weeping with her eyes closed, suddenly opened her beautiful eyes and sat up from the bed.

"Ming Yue...?" She whispered subconsciously, rubbing her eyes without realizing it. "This is... tears?"

"I seem to have cried... is this... a dream?"

It was as if she had experienced another life of her own from a first-person perspective.

Joy, anger, sorrow, happiness, love, hate, obsession, and delusion! Everything, absolutely everything, was so real. Sister, Ming Yue, Ming Yue?

Together forever...?

Her unfocused, beautiful eyes drifted along with her wandering thoughts, and Leng Yulai sat blankly on the couch in a daze.

Two lives, two sets of memories began to intertwine and collide within her mind!

Until—beep, beep, beep!!!

A familiar yet strange electronic sound rang out beside her ear, causing Leng Yulai's aimless thoughts and gaze to refocus.

"Finality!?"

Following the sound to its source, she saw a bracelet that was both familiar and strange, suddenly appearing on her fair, jade-like hand!

Instinctively using her consciousness to connect the communication, Leng Yaozhu's voice rang out by her ear: "Yulai, can you hear me?"

"Sister...?" She responded subconsciously, and Leng Yulai's heart trembled violently!

"Yulai... you really had that dream too, didn't you?"

The question carried a tremor; Leng Yaozhu, at the Spirit Pagoda headquarters, was currently both excited and shocked.

She was excited to be able to speak with her sister again, but shocked that this Origin Bracelet was actually exactly the same as the one in the dream!

That meant that perhaps it wasn't a dream at all!

It should be said that it was another life for the two sisters and Ming Yue!

At the thought of this, Leng Yaozhu's breathing became rapid, but thinking of her sister on the other end of the communication, she managed to steady her breath:

"My Origin is exactly the same as the one in that life; I've already tested the armor! And all the data that Ming Yue transmitted is recorded inside it!"

Her own sister's words, which felt like a sudden enlightenment, allowed the still-dazed Leng Yulai to completely calm down.

The thought of equipping the armor flashed through her mind, and a silver-white light tinged with deep purple began to flicker and spread from the bracelet instantly.

In an instant, the familiar sensation enveloped her once again!

"Sister, my Finality is the same!" She clenched her fist in disbelief.

The memory of Ming Yue's gentle, smiling gaze when she first equipped the Finality flashed through her mind.

"Sure enough... this isn't a dream at all!" Hearing Leng Yulai's reply, Leng Yaozhu, on this side of the communication, looked at the Origin Bracelet with even more tenderness.

"That was another life of ours—a life that, although filled with regrets, was also perfect!"

"Compared to this failed life, Ming Yue and you, Yulai, are the ones I truly want to be with!"

Her voice became emotional at this point, and the image of herself committing suicide at the place where Ming Yue had dissipated, followed by Leng Yulai arriving and weeping on the ground with the Plane Spirit, suddenly surfaced in her mind.

"Ming Yue, but Ming Yue he!" The longing and attachment in her sister's voice brought Leng Yulai back from the shock brought by the Finality.

Having accepted that it was another life for herself, her sister, and Ming Yue, Leng Yulai could not help but gently stroke the Finality Bracelet.

"Silly, since that was another life for us and Ming Yue! Then in this world, Ming Yue must also exist!"

"After all, with such a special martial soul, I don't believe that a so-called mutation of the Qiangu Family martial soul could turn into that!"

Speaking with absolute certainty, Leng Yaozhu's jade hand subconsciously clenched into a fist.

"Then how are we going to find Ming Yue, Sister?" Listening to her sister's silly question on the other end of the communication, Leng Yaozhu couldn't help but hold her forehead and chuckle.

"Yulai, have you forgotten our influence?"

"We at the Spirit Pagoda can't say we cover the entire continent, but aside from certain hidden great families, basically all martial souls are awakened and recorded by my Spirit Pagoda."

"Moreover, Ming Yue's martial soul is so special. Since there is no one like him in the current Qiangu Family, finding him is only a matter of time!"

As she spoke, she pondered how to formulate a plan to find Ming Yue, listening to her sister's joyful response on the other end of the communication.

Leng Yaozhu suddenly paused: "Speaking of which, Yulai, do you like that Yun Ming from Shrek?"

"No, why did you suddenly ask that, Sister?" The joyful expression stiffened slightly.

Leng Yulai's mouth couldn't help but twitch.

To think that she had once harbored a secret crush on someone who wouldn't even spare her a proper glance.

She had resented her own sister, run away from home to join a wicked cult, and had now even climbed to the rank of a high-level executive within the Holy Spirit Cult!

Leng Yulai suddenly felt the urge to slap her past self across the face a few times.

"I see. Then where have you been all these years, Yulai? There hasn't been a single word from you. If it weren't for A-Yue, were you planning on hiding from your sister for the rest of your life?"

Sure enough, hearing her sister's words—a mix of relief and fury—Leng Yulai felt a warmth spread through her heart.

But as she thought about her current status as one of the leaders of the Holy Spirit Cult, and the foolish, wicked things she had done over the years, an inexplicable panic suddenly surged in her chest.

"Yulai! Yulai! Say something! What's wrong? Yulai!"

At this moment, hearing no response from her younger sister, Leng Yaozhu suddenly grew anxious.

While wondering if she had spoken too harshly, her calls to her sister became filled with urgency and worry.

"Sister, I'm fine, I was just... just..." Pulled back from her aimless thoughts by Leng Yaozhu's voice, Leng Yulai immediately responded.

"Just what?" Leng Yaozhu asked hurriedly.

"Sister, do you know about the Holy Spirit Cult?" Asking with trepidation and caution, Leng Yulai stared intently at the Finality Bracelet.

"That wicked cult? I know of them, why do you ask so suddenly...?"

Nodding subconsciously in response, Leng Yaozhu's words trailed off halfway.

"Haa, Sister, it's exactly as you're thinking. I joined the Holy Spirit Cult. Over these years, not only did I join them, but I also helped them commit many wicked and evil deeds!"

"Sister, tell me, if A-Yue knew I had become like this, would he... would he still like me?"

Her voice grew increasingly dejected as she spoke, and by the end, Leng Yulai was filled with both fear and self-reproach.

"You, oh you... what am I supposed to say to you?"
