Chapter 1328: Weng Falos 3.4 (363)

Luo Xiaohei's War Chronicle.

"Eh? Senior Sister, Xilian also has a copy of *As I Have Written* exactly like Mi Mi's! Could she have later given this book to Mi Mi?"

Xiaohei widened his eyes, staring in amazement at the volume identical to the one in Mi Mi's hand, and suddenly felt it was somewhat unbelievable.

"Just a 'gift' then?"

The moment he saw the book in Xilian's hand, a heavy fog in Lu Ye's mind seemed suddenly blown away by a gust of wind, and the confusions and doubts, like sand dunes scattered by the wind, revealed the blurred truth beneath.

Indeed, how could such coincidences exist in this world?

"Xiaohei, do you remember before the campaign against Aigele, Bai E and Mi Mi often searched for books in the Divine Insight Tree Courtyard? Bai E read books on antique appraisal, while Mi Mi read books about Shenpai, divination, and the like—do you recall?"

Xiaohei nodded blankly, "Remember, what's up?"

"Xilian likes Shenpai, Mi Mi also likes Shenpai; Xilian has *As I Have Written*, and Mi Mi has the same edition. Considering their rather similar speech tones, and that no pink fairy has ever appeared in the Mi Realm... all the coincidences point to one conclusion."

"…"

Xiaohei was stunned for an instant.

He opened his mouth wide, looking up at Xilian in the sky while glancing at the senior sister beside him, his pupils seeming to undergo an earthquake.

"Senior Sister, could you be saying... Mi Mi is Xilian?"

"If Xilian is indeed Mi Mi, many puzzles remain unsolved," Lu Ye shook his head lightly. "For example, the Xilian San Yueqi encountered, and Xilian's life-and-death issue... I have a strange feeling that Weng Falos seems to contain many Xilians simultaneously, so I cannot firmly believe this conclusion."

"However, regardless of whether Mi Mi is ultimately Xilian, one thing is certain—there must be an extremely profound connection between them."

——

"Xilian was stunned: 'What...'?'"

"Exactly. Every time the Mi Realm welcomes a new fairy, it signifies that beyond the curtain, the vast world far from Aolixie is about to undergo a cataclysmic disaster."

"Afterwards, Duo Duola Mi described more details to everyone."

"After listening, Xilian looked at Bai E with a worried expression: 'If that's the case, our expedition...'"

"Bai E nodded: '... we'd have to cancel. If disaster approaches, it's better to stay in Aolixie as a precaution.'"

"'What about the world outside?'"

"Bai E: 'You've stumped me... but the two of us, Xilian and I, can't do anything.'"

"Xilian added: 'Bai E and I originally planned to leave the village for a short while to learn some skills and return. He intends to train in Xuanfengcheng, I plan to go to Yanu Sapolis to undergo the Fate Titan's baptism... after mastering, we'll return to Aolixie to protect the village's peace from intrusion.'"

"Bai E accepted quickly: 'No problem, staying here doesn't hinder learning. Sword techniques, I can grasp on my own. Uh... maybe.'"

"'Heh, child, that expression of yours...' Duo Duola Mi said, 'I have a suggestion: why not let Xilian draw a card for us on the spot, do a divination? If Fate is willing to show its true color, we can all be at ease, right?'"

"Bai E frowned slightly: 'But if the divination result is unsatisfactory, what then?'"

"'Then we fight it until the end.'"

"'Heh... I've truly never considered this line of thought. Thank you, partner, I'll follow your lead—whatever the outcome, let's face it together.'"

——

Harry Potter.

"If Xilian hadn't died at the hands of the Fire Thief but instead followed Bai E to Aohema, could the divine office of the 'Years' Titan then be inherited by her?"

Hermione leaned out of the armchair, half her body, seriously contemplating the question.

"It's not 'possible', it's 'certain'. The key is the relationship between her and Mi Mi—" When Mi Mi was mentioned, Harry excitedly nudged his glasses on his nose and said impatiently, "If my conjecture is correct—if she truly is linked to Mi Mi, doesn't that prove that Xilian and Fu Li also share some connection?"

"That may be so, Harry..." Ron wiped the cocoa stain still on his mouth corner, his face puzzled as he interrupted, "If Xilian can connect with the Star God, that's rather odd; she's, like Bai E, an electronic life simulated by a staff, essentially just a string of signal data. Why does Fu Li focus on her instead of others? Does she have something particularly special?"

"Her appearing in the space where San Yueqi is already shows she's special," Hermione said, "Although we don't know why she was there, vaguely I think her imprisonment is inseparable from the group from Liguang Yiting."

"You mean Yiting wants to tamper with Xilian from the staff, risking detection by Laigushi?" Ron sneered, "Whether they succeed or not, that audacity... is truly huge."

"It's clear Weng Falos does have a secret that attracts Yiting," Hermione said, puzzled, "But strangely, why doesn't Yiting send someone directly to Weng Falos, opting instead to hijack San Yueqi for exploration? Wouldn't going themselves be more efficient?"

——

"Xilian opened the Shenpai deck, having Bai E and Xing close their eyes to draw cards."

"Unlike before, this time they received a great number of responses, the quantity even slightly surprising Xilian."

"Bai E turned over the first card, a golden \"Zhiyuan\" card, depicting an elegant lady with a golden thread shooting from her hand, its other end connected to an unknown place."

"'The Zhiyuan card weaves the romantic threads of the Golden Cocoon, stitching everyone's fate into gleaming strands that lead to the most radiant, flourishing future card...'"

"From the Zhiyuan card came Aglaea's echo: 'Begin with the dance of weaving and sword, and conclude with the same elegance.'"

"Bai E gazed at the beautiful card, unable to hide his admiration: 'How splendid... a golden Zhiyuan, the name alone suggests aristocratic lineage. Such noble status is probably beyond someone like me... perhaps.'"

"Bai E turned over the second card, showing three red-haired girls, behind them a red-haired woman in white attire."

"'This is the Door Craftsman; she can point people to the right path among countless doors.'"

"From the Door Craftsman card came Ti Bao's youthful voice: '*We* erase our myriad senses, solely to listen more attentively to the murmurs within the sanctuary!'"

"Bai E: 'It seems we truly heard the Huixiang in the sanctuary, mixed with... children's songs? It feels solemn yet oddly intimate...'"
