Chapter 266

~6 min read 1,098 words

Bai Ge asked back expressionlessly.

Ji Lin and Ji Lin-Black were both stunned.

"What do you want to say!"

"In my opinion, this is more like a desire for relief in the name of revenge. Ji Lin, you are seeking death, right."

"... What nonsense are you talking about."

"Eh?"

Ji Lin's remnant soul opened her eyes wide. She noticed that her black self was shaken just now.

When facing Bai Ge's gaze, she even turned her head away as if escaping.

Bai Ge showed a smile again, watching the black girl in front of him gently, sighing in his heart that even if she fell into darkness, Ji Lin's desire for protection still existed.

"If you really want to take revenge on the world, then it's impossible to be my enemy. Since it is your will that influences Chiyou, then you must also know that I almost killed it with one sword just now."

"I am your invincible enemy. As long as I draw my sword, you will definitely die."

"But clearly knowing this, you are still attacking me continuously, inducing me to launch an attack on you."

"You are seeking death for relief, Ji Lin."

Bai Ge said so and put away his dual swords, and the Honkai energy on his body gradually calmed down.

Dark Ji Lin saw this scene and gritted her teeth. She saw her raise the black Xuanyuan Sword again and slash at Bai Ge's head.

"You, said, wrong!"

"Bai Ge, be careful!"

Ji Lin's remnant soul was shocked when she saw this scene and wanted to use the golden Xuanyuan Sword to block this fatal blow for Bai Ge, but she was firmly grasped by the hilt and couldn't move at all.

The white boy looked at the black girl confidently and calmly.

He didn't care at all about this sword that could kill him.

And just when the black Xuanyuan Sword was less than an inch from his hair, this sword, which should have been unstoppable, stopped abruptly.

"This is the best evidence. You won't kill me. The previous attacks didn't aim at my vital points at all."

"............"

Dark Ji Lin let go of the black Xuanyuan Sword powerlessly.

She looked at Bai Ge with complex eyes. The golden eyes of this boy seemed to be able to see through her heart, perfectly interpreting her wish for relief.

"I won't kill you, I will save you, because I came here for this."

Bai Ge said very seriously.

"... Thank you for your kindness, but it's already impossible. My heart has broken in these thousands of years of darkness. I have forgotten hope, forgotten kindness, forgotten love, and forgotten all the beauty of the past."

Since her heart had already been exposed, continuing to act was meaningless. Ji Lin-Black revealed her true heart.

"This body has actually died long ago, but it continues to act because of my darkness, resentment, and obsession."

She put Bai Ge's hand on her heart. Sure enough, the heart was no longer beating.

"And although my will influences Chiyou, I cannot control it. This evil beast will instinctively destroy the world due to the influence of my negative emotions."

Only this cannot be tolerated.

Ji Lin-Black clenched her small hands.

She is a living dead person with only darkness in her heart, and she cannot kill herself. Up to now, she cannot find back the kindness and beauty of the past. And as long as she, full of negative emotions, is still alive, Chiyou will instinctively swallow and destroy. Therefore...

"Your name is Bai Ge, right? Thank you for your gentleness. Can you please... let me be relieved?"

Ji Lin-Black pleaded. She shouldn't continue to exist. Having forgotten all beauty, even if she continues to exist in this world, she will instinctively hurt others.

Bai Ge felt her desire for death and nodded.

"Of course, I will let you be relieved."

"Thank you..."

"But not in the way of death!"

The boy who was so gentle just now suddenly became firm, as if there was no room for discussion.

Of course he would let Ji Lin be relieved.

But not by death, but by rebirth!

Bai Ge's hand on Ji Lin-Black's heart activated the Herrscher of Sentience's authority, re-injecting vitality into this body that had long since exhausted its life force and was only acting on will!

Thump! Thump! Thump!

A powerful heartbeat came from under Ji Lin-Black's chest. She opened her eyes in surprise, not expecting that after thousands of years, this melody representing life could still beat in her body.

"But my personality has already..."

"It doesn't matter, Ji Lin, isn't the kindness you lost right in front of you?"

"!!!"

Bai Ge smiled and pointed to the heroic spirit remnant soul of Ji Lin hovering beside him, and picked up the Xuanyuan Sword that was still shining like gold at his waist.

Although Ji Lin's main body, which had been in Chiyou's body for thousands of years, had fallen into darkness, this Xuanyuan Sword, which she used to seal Chiyou and left part of her will in,

still preserved the beautiful humanity she had lost.

"As long as the remnant soul and you become one, then you will find back the humanity you lost, and the remnant soul doesn't have to worry about dissipating one day, right."

This is also the reason why Bai Ge insisted on stopping the remnant soul from sacrificing herself for him before. Although she is only a wisp of remnant soul, she is the key to Ji Lin's rebirth.

As for the last question.

What should be done about this Chiyou that brewed all the disasters.

The answer is the simplest.

"Shamash, unsheathed!!!"

Bai Ge grasped Shamash's Judgment - Cleaver of Shamash again, the scorching flames wrapped around the sword body, and he swung it hard towards Chiyou's heart in front of him... This time he wouldn't deliberately miss.

Boom――!!

The raging fire burned Chiyou's heart and then pierced through its huge body from the inside to the outside. Suddenly, its body was completely destroyed, and its vitality was completely cut off.

The next second, the sunlight shone into Chiyou's body and fell on the two of them.

"Ah ah, so, warm..."

Tears overflowed from Ji Lin's eyes uncontrollably.

She looked at the blue sky and white clouds that she hadn't seen for thousands of years.

At this moment, she finally obtained true relief.

Third update, seeking flowers, seeking tickets, seeking rewards.

I wrote the Chiyou chapter by combining the old and new settings, after all, it saves words.
