279. Chapter 279 Life God King: Save Our Children

The Life God King listened to Qianxunji's confident words, looking at his tall, strong build and handsome face.

She admitted that Qianxunji was stronger than Huimie.

Moreover, in certain aspects, his strength far surpassed Huimie's.

After spending just two days with Qianxunji, she experienced a happiness she had not felt in millions of years, lifting her mood to its peak.

Feeling the tiny life within her belly, she unconsciously smiled.

But the next moment, her smile vanished, replaced by fear and panic.

Because she was about to die, even her heart—the source of her Self-healing Power—was completely destroyed.

She had waited millions of years to finally have her own child, yet now she had to watch that child die alongside her.

Thinking of this, she was filled with reluctance.

She did not want to die, nor did she want her child to die with her.

Wait, she suddenly realized that Qianxunji also possessed Self-healing Power; perhaps he could save her.

Thinking this, she looked at Qianxunji with anticipation:

"Save me, quickly save me, quickly save my child?"

"Not saving." Qianxunji replied indifferently, not even glancing at her.

Hearing this, she felt both happy and sad.

The happy part was that from Qianxunji's two words "not saving," she sensed he could save her, which meant her child could be saved.

The sad part was that Qianxunji actually refused to save her.

However, at this moment only Qianxunji could save her; she had to make him save her in order to preserve the child she had struggled millions of years to obtain.

Thinking this, she dropped to her knees, grabbed Qianxunji's thigh, and pleaded:

"Qianxunji, please, please save me, okay? As the Life God King, I have never begged anyone in my life, but now I beg you to save me."

"Heh!" Qianxunji gave a cold smile, kicked the Life God King away, and said disdainfully:

"Save you? On what grounds?"

"Is it because you schemed to get close to me, because you schemed to get close to me to kill my women and children?"

Qianxunji's kick sent the Life God King flying; her body rolled continuously on the ground until she hit a wall a hundred meters away and finally stopped.

Hearing Qianxunji's words, she finally remembered that she had come to kill his women and children—why should he save her?

They were already enemies; saving her would be saving an enemy.

But her child is also Qianxunji's child, isn't it?

Thus, to show sincerity, the Life God King dropped to her knees and kowtowed toward Qianxunji.

Arriving before Qianxunji, she did not speak immediately, but instead knocked her head three times loudly before him, crying out hoarsely:

"Older Brother Qian, I am already pregnant with your child; please, for the child's sake, save me."

"Even if you don't save me, you must at least save the child."

"Even if you don't want to save me, as long as I give birth to the child, I can immediately kill myself before you."

Hearing this, Qianxunji still shook his head and said nothing.

Seeing this, the Life God King realized pleading with Qianxunji was useless; she stood up, glared at him resentfully, and shouted:

"How can you be so heartless and cold? I came to kill you, your women, and your children."

"But I now carry your child in my womb; how can you, for the sake of these grudges, refuse to save my child? You are utterly ruthless and heartless!"

Hearing this, Qianxunji remained silent, his face expressionless and cold.

Seeing Qianxunji unmoved by either soft or hard tactics, she sensed the life force within her; at most she had one minute left before she would die completely.

By then, even if Qianxunji possessed Self-healing Power, her death would be irreversible.

Then the child she had painstakingly obtained would also die with her.

Thinking of this, the Life God King became frantic, her face flushing red as she stared wildly at Qianxunji and screamed:

"Speak up—what exactly must you do to save me?"

"Could you really be this merciless?"

Qianxunji remained unmoved.

Seeing this, the Life God King knelt again, frantically slapping her own face, and cried out madly:

"Please save me, please save my child..."

"Sigh!" At that moment, Qianxunji sighed and spoke:

"Life, you still don't understand my intention, do you?"

The Life God King, also very clever, hearing Qianxunji's words felt a turning point, a glimmer of hope, and quickly grabbed his thigh, pleading:

"What intention? Tell me, please tell me."

Qianxunji reached out and stroked her hair, then said slowly:

"If I save you, are you willing to relinquish your hatred for my killing of Huimie?"

Hearing this, her hands trembled and she instinctively loosened her grip on Qianxunji's thigh.

Yes, Qianxunji had killed her husband Huimie; their love spanning millions of years could not be forgotten so easily.

She wished she could tear Qianxunji limb from limb.

But if she could not let go of her hatred, Qianxunji would certainly not save her, and her child could not survive.

Moreover, even if she deceived Qianxunji by claiming she had let go of her hatred, his spiritual power—far surpassing that of an ordinary creator god—and his wisdom would surely detect her lie, and he would then refuse to save her.

Thus, only two paths lay before her.

The first path: not relinquishing her hatred, even desiring to kill Qianxunji, would result in her own death and the death of the child she had struggled to obtain.

The second way: then let go of hatred, let go of the love for destruction that has lasted hundreds of millions of years, so that I can survive and the child can survive.

If she had no child, she would definitely choose the first path; even if it meant death, she would not compromise with Qianxunji, and even if it meant death she would choose to kill Qianxunji.

But now she has a child.

Moreover, she is the Life God King, has spent her life studying life, and understands the preciousness of life better than anyone.

What's more, right now it is her child's life that is about to fade away.

On one side is the love for destruction that has lasted hundreds of millions of years; on the other side is her own child; life has fallen into an extremely difficult choice, and for a moment she cannot make up her mind.

Oh no, Life senses that she can at most live another thirty seconds; she can't keep hesitating.

Life slowly closed her eyes, motionless.

Five seconds later, the Life God King suddenly opened her eyes, her gaze clear, she knelt on the ground, both hands tightly grasping Qianxunji's thigh, and calmly said:

"Qian Brother, I was wrong, I have always been wrong, I have decided to let go of all hatred, let go of the love for destruction that has lasted hundreds of millions of years, please save our child."

Qianxunji's sharp eyes looked down at the calm-faced Life God King; his cold expression suddenly changed, and he smiled.

He keenly caught two words from her sentence… 'We,' 'our child.'

From this, Qianxunji knew that the Life God King had already made her choice. (End of chapter)
