Chapter 1519

"Seizing the body…?!"

Mazhi Mo furrowed his brow tightly; if his guess was correct, Night Moon would then completely annihilate this immortal's spirit and take over her body.

"What Mazhi Daoist said is correct." Han Li picked up the spiritual tea on the table and took a light sip, "This Night Moon and San Yue Qi Yue Yue Yue Yue Yue share one body with two souls. Han once encountered an old monster who practiced the ghost path in his early years, and his situation was similar to Night Moon's."

"Oh? Han Daoist still has such experience?"

"En." Han Li did not deny it, only said lightly, "That person was originally a Nascent Soul cultivator, but due to betrayal by his inner disciple, his physical body was completely destroyed, and he had no choice but to scatter his Nascent Soul, turning to the ghost path. Later, he was reborn through the method of seizing a body, and still wanted to help another ghost cultivator residing within him seize a body. This Night Moon is likely the same—she resides within Miss San Yue, waiting for the day she seizes a body and is reborn, so she can always stay by her side."

Gu Shuangpu said meaningfully, "Han Daoist is so familiar with this—could it not be that you were one of the parties in that body-seizing battle?"

Han Li put down his teacup, his expression unchanged: "Gu Daoist, you overthink it. Han merely happened to be there and watched the spectacle from the sidelines."

Although Han Li said it lightly, when he said the words "lively spectacle," Mazhi Mo heard them and felt a chill penetrate to his bones.

"After seizing this immortal, Night Moon will then sacrifice the billions of living beings of Wengfaluo Si… alas, it's a pity that Bai E and Xilian's thirty million years of effort will all go up in flames." Mazhi Mo let out a long sigh.

Upon hearing this, Gu Shuangpu instead let out a scoffing laugh: "Mazhi Daoist, your words are mistaken. As long as we can stop the birth of that monster called 'Tumu,' what does sacrificing the living beings of Wengfaluo Si matter? Moreover, they are not even living beings. I actually think Night Moon's actions are correct—those who achieve great things should not fuss over minor details."

"Gu Daoist, what a fine 'not fussing over minor details'—the conduct of the Yuling Sect, today Mazhi Mo has indeed learned it." Mazhi Mo coldly snorted, "To stop Tumu's slaughter, one can openly sacrifice others. Not long ago, the envoy of the Muran Manzi said they wanted to cede the lands of six nations of the Nine Nations Alliance to seek peace. If this matter were left to Gu Daoist to decide, would you also not fuss over minor details, nodding and sacrificing those six nations?"

"Mazhi Daoist, your Haoran Zhengqi of the Haoran Pavilion, I am ashamed to fall short of." Gu Shuangpu slowly lifted his teacup, "But Tumu is not comparable to the Muran Manzi—once born, it will bring suffering to countless billions of living beings in the Huazuo, even taking their lives, so what talk is there of saving all beings? Let one Wengfaluo Si die so that countless 'Wengfaluo Si' may live—this calculation, I naturally find worthwhile."

A Certain Scientific Railgun.

"What kind of 'liberation' is this?"

Misaka gritted her teeth and gazed at the Night Moon in the Sky Curtain; that rhetoric of "letting Wengfaluo Si attain true liberation" left her utterly unable to comprehend.

"If destroying Wengfaluo Si can also be called a kind of liberation, then is Nan Nu Ke not the most compassionate star god in the entire universe? His subordinates, the Jiemie Dajun, liberate others every day—doing good deeds, right?"

"But……" Shokuhou's voice was calm and unhurried, carrying a hint of coldness, "If sacrificing an entire planet could stop the birth of Tumu—stop a Jiemie Dajun capable of god-slaying—then from a rational standpoint, what is wrong with Night Moon's decision?"

"But you cannot only talk about rationality when sacrificing others!" Mikoto violently turned around, electricity crackling and exploding with a "popping" sound on her forehead, "If Night Moon plans to sacrifice you, Shokuhou Mitaka, could you still remain this calm?"

Shokuhou did not answer immediately.

She merely silently gazed at Misaka, her expression still very calm……that kind of calm which made Misaka very angry.

"Misaka classmate, you are shifting concepts." Shokuhou finally spoke, spreading her hands and saying, "First, we are not people of Wengfaluo Si; second, I have not been chosen by Night Moon to become a sacrifice; third, this hypothesis is meaningless."

"Tumu will not play moral games with you. In fact, if it were born, it would cause far more deaths than the population of Wengfaluo Si. Although this is unfair to Wengfaluo Si…… but for now, Night Moon's choice is simply the most reasonable."

"Black Swan deeply sighed, she seemed not surprised at all: 'No wonder, this is why you held me…… your true form is a bottomless obsession.'"

"Night Moon silently leaned on her umbrella; beneath it, the red floral pattern resembled a thousand eyes staring at her, or like a blood-red net covering the heavens, firmly trapping Black Swan within."

"Night Moon lightly chuckled: 'Truly clever, you indeed did not disappoint me. This incarnation is merely a reflection cast by candlelight, discarding it is no great loss. What must be kept is only 'wish'——'"

"'The wish to kill the 'Memory' Path.'"

"'If we cannot eliminate Him and His fervent followers, 'San Yue Qi Yue Yue Yue Yue Yue' will never find peace. The road ahead is long and arduous; we must have a guardian accompany her by her side. And you… undoubtedly are the best choice.'"

"Black Swan calmly shook her head: 'Sorry, I must refuse, this responsibility seems too heavy.'"

"'Hehe, resistance is also futile, my little bird. I will personally implant myself into your heart. After comforting Star and Dan Heng…… I will then go into reality and find the 'true you.'"

Hagane no Renkinjutsushi.

"Is this the battlefield of the death struggle of the three destinies? The first genius who created the Wisdom Star God must betray the star god, destroy the 'Wisdom' destiny; Bai E, glanced upon by Nan Nu Ke, must offer destruction for the 'Destruction' destiny; as a fragment of Fu Li, Night Moon also wishes to kill Fu Li, destroy the destiny……"

Edward drew a sharp breath of cold air, unable to help but feel that Wengfaluo Si was still too authoritarian—three destinies simultaneously appeared with those who wished to betray their own destinies, and all aimed to kill the star god……

From this perspective, Night Moon indeed has the possibility of being selected by Nan Nu Ke to become the Jiemie Dajun who destroys 'Memory'; if she seizes Black Swan's body and completely separates from San Yue Qi Yue Yue Yue Yue Yue to become an independent entity, then will the wish to destroy 'Memory' gain Nan Nu Ke's glance?

"Brother, just now Night Moon mentioned 'must eliminate Him and His fervent followers,' which means must kill Fu Li and destroy the Light Memory Garden…… it seems the Memory Garden is destined to kill San Yue Qi Yue Yue Yue Yue Yue."

"En, San Yue Qi Yue Yue Yue Yue Yue seems to be…… Wu Luo Jing Zi." Edward recalled, "The Memory Garden should also contain Wu Luo Jing Zi; this should be an extremely rare identity among the 'Memory' Pathfinders. If that Wu Luo Jing Zi regards San Yue Qi Yue Yue Yue Yue Yue as a target to hunt down, then the Memory Garden will likely become an opposing force to the Train Society."
