Chapter 1471
"The principle of 'Recreation of the World'—you already understand it well, don't you? Using the 'memory' of the burdened as a blueprint, we initiate the computation for the next generation. This unshakable experimental mechanism is precisely how the geniuses counter the Iron Tomb. And now, I wish to add a small boost to it..."
"Let me filter your memory, retain the suitable seed, and erase everything else. Thus, we can accomplish an unprecedented 'Recreation of the World'."
Before the words faded, Night Moon casually raised her hand, and two red jellyfish appeared behind Star.
"This won't take long—just follow me into the sensory rain. I will tell you who should be forgotten and who should be remembered. Using your 'memory' as material, I will recompile the world's causality, allowing a flawless 'Wengfaluo Si' to be born from chaos."

Electro Blade Person.
"Wait… is she a good woman or a bad woman?!"
Night Moon called him "dear" one bite at a time, and given her prior help in delivering the Fire Seed of the Burdened to the Golden Bloodline Members, Denki truly thought she was a great person—but now, with this dangerous rhetoric, even if he were slow-witted, he could sense something was off…
She decides who and what will appear in the next generation's computation—if she dislikes the Golden Bloodline Members, then wouldn't Ke Lü De La, Hai Se Yin, and Aglaea not appear?
No no no… this won't do!
"Idiot Denki, do you even need to think? Of course she's a bad woman! Which good person deceives everyone in Wengfaluo Si?" Pa Wa shouted, raising her hand and slapping "pa-pa" on Denki's forehead, trying to keep him awake through physical means.
"But Night Moon just said she cared about San Yue Qi Yue Yue Yue Yue Yue and her companions..." Denki still refused to abandon the fantasy in his heart, after all, Night Moon was simply too beautiful.
"No, I think we shouldn't simply label her as good or bad." Looking at Night Moon's familiar yet strange face, Aki Hayakawa wasn't as opposed as Pa Wa, "Night Moon currently gives me the feeling of being... extreme."
"Extreme?"
"Yes, her primary purpose is to protect San Yue Qi Yue Yue Yue Yue Yue and, within her ability, protect everything San Yue Qi Yue Yue Yue Yue Yue cherishes. I have a vague feeling... as long as San Yue Qi Yue Yue Yue Yue Yue's wish is fulfilled, Night Moon can sacrifice everything, using any means necessary to achieve it."
"What if the cost is all of Wengfaluo Si?"
Aki Hayakawa softly sighed: "I'm still unclear how far Night Moon would go for San Yue Qi Yue Yue Yue Yue Yue, but if the cost is all of Wengfaluo Si, then Star, as the leader, would absolutely not agree."
—
"This battle concerns the fate of the Galaxy, doesn't it? This is the only surefire method—it will surely defeat 'Destruction' and write a bold, vivid stroke for 'The Trailblazer'."
Star spoke bluntly: "Doing this is no different from Laigushi."
"Of course, to oppose a genius, you must stand at the same height." Night Moon's smile deepened at the corner of her mouth as she stepped beside Star, walking around him like night circling a lone lamp: "For new life to sprout, its seed must be dead."
"Before disappearing, 'San Yue Qi Yue Yue Yue Yue Yue' made a wish to me. Her sole wish was that 'The Trailblazer's journey could continue forever.'"
Night Moon suddenly wiped the smile from her face—on that visage identical to San Yue Qi Yue Yue Yue Yue Yue's, a flash of unfamiliar chill and resolve crossed Star's eyes.
"And this simple wish, I will surely fulfill for her."
"You are twisting her wish!" Star couldn't help but shout in rebuke. But before he finished speaking, the voice of Xilian suddenly surfaced in his mind.
"Star, what happened? Your consciousness... suddenly feels so distant?"
"It felt as if consciousness had sunk into the deep sea—Xilian's voice clearly echoed in my mind, yet seemed to come from a distant water surface, far, far from Star, like an echo from another world."
"I promised you, Star: the Xingzhou Train will surely reunite in that new world." Night Moon stepped toward Star, step by step: "Come, dear. Sink into the ocean of 'Oblivion' and become my guest. We can have much, much private time, and you cannot refuse my invitation."
"...!"
Star suddenly felt his brain tear apart with excruciating pain; the red jellyfish before his eyes seemed to duplicate, their numbers increasing.
"Because this Memory Tide comes from your companion 'San Yue Qi Yue Yue Yue Yue Yue'... it is her 'memory' that has no bottom, unseen in its depth."
—
Earth—On the Movement of the Earth.
"For new life to sprout, its seed must be dead... I feel like I've heard this somewhere before." Okogi looked pleadingly at the monk beside him.
"From John 12:24." Badeni had long memorized the scripture, but hearing Night Moon mention something matching the scripture he had studied for years still made him fall into thought.
"The scripture mentions this line, symbolizing that individual life, after undergoing self-sacrifice and transformation, can attain spiritual or life-level rebirth. Could Night Moon also mean something similar? Through sacrificing the old world's memory and transforming it, can we open a new world and gain new life?"
Badeni lightly tapped his forehead with his index finger; the gleaming bald head seemed to spark a flash of wisdom in an instant.
"No, not entirely correct. In the seminary, this metaphor also carries another deeper meaning: Jesus sacrificed himself so that more people could gain eternal life. Night Moon saying this—could it imply another layer, namely 'through sacrificing Wengfaluo Si, San Yue Qi Yue Yue Yue Yue Yue—and even all people in the universe—could be redeemed anew'?"
"Sacrifice, sacrifice all of Wengfaluo Si? Mr. Badeni, this is really..."
"We cannot rule out that Night Moon has this intention—she looks like someone capable of such an act." Badeni said coldly. From the moment he saw Night Moon, he had felt an indescribable ferocity wandering across her perpetually faint-smiling face.
Although both belong to "memory," it is obvious Night Moon's stance is completely different from that of the Wengfaluo Si Demigod—even if she and Xilian are both "children of memory," they may not be on the same front.

"The Hall of the Three Phases of Fate."
"「」
"Actually, it's not that surprising, after all I've already seen you before."
"On the train, that night when a pure-hearted knight appeared uninvited..." San Yue Qi Yue Yue Yue Yue Yue looked at the back of "another herself," hands on hips, and said, "You appeared just like that—silent and sudden."
"Huh, is that so?" Night Moon slowly turned to face her, "Then do you remember how long it has been since you entered Wengfaluo Si?"
