Chapter 1563
"Who are you? I am… who am I?"
"Gaze, fixed upon. Outside the window, cold. You… warm. Warm, liked."
"The pink little fairy kept uttering 'Mimi' from her mouth, and not far from this memory, Xilian and Star silently observed a scene."
"... Thus, the light that tore open chaos illuminated my 'Memory'. I incarnated as the little fairy in the poem, met Star, yet forgot everything. But no matter what, everyone was very happy. I caught that star, right?"
"Those who accompanied me have always been…"
Xilian nodded: "Yes, in memory, held aloft by 'Xilian', nourished with 'Compassion' the 'Seed'… I am… the original wisdom seed, Wengfaluo Si Xin, De Miu Ge."
Speaking, Xilian again lowered her head somewhat embarrassed: "Truly a long, yet unlovely name. Worlds apart from 'Mimi'."
"The first ripple, she in the end…" Star wanted to speak but stopped.
"Sorry, I don't know. If even I myself do not wish to believe, how could I give an answer…" Xilian's voice seemed to carry a barely perceptible tremor, as if comforting Star, yet also convincing herself, "But now is not the time to cry, right? We will find the answer, just as miracles… always happen."
Star fell silent for a moment, then slowly opened her mouth: "Should I call you Mimi, Xilian, or…?"
Xilian looked toward the memory ahead: "Do you remember? At the beginning of the journey, I also worried over this problem. The memory belonging to Mimi, the memory belonging to 'Xilian', circulating in the same heart, so unfamiliar, yet so familiar."
"But this time alone, can I accept Mimi's little willfulness? I hope…" She slightly tilted her head, and in looking at Star's eyes, there seemed to shimmer a layer of rippling water light, "To be called by Star with the name 'Xilian'—this name contains me, and also her… every her."
"Of course, this is her blessing to you."
"Thank you, Star. Your gentleness is always just right. Life is a poem full of farewells, but as long as it is written into the pages of the 'Heart' book, it will not easily fade. Now, all the footsteps of the Trailblazers and 'Pioneering' have flowed into this《As I Wrote》……"
"Become the power of the 'Wengfaluo Si Xin'."

Qin Shi Mingyue.
"So, the key to defeating Tumu is Xilian, right? I've already fully understood!" Tianming confidently crossed his arms.
"Oh? Tianming, what have you understood?" Duanmu Rong merely smiled.
"Weird woman, you actually don't even get this, Memory Envoy—of course one must borrow a bit of the power of Star God Fu Li, plus the bonds with the twelve Golden Descendants, plus the power of memory in《As I Wrote》…… Just like a river, 'whoosh'—it would wash away Tumu, this blocking dam!"
Tianming stood on a large rock, his two hands began gesturing in midair, "The memories of Qian Wan Shi are like three million rivers, converging together—even if each is narrow, their convergence would be like the sea!"
Seeing Tianming's optimistic look, Yue Er couldn't help but chuckle: "Tianming, come down quickly—if you fall from the rock, it won't be good."
"Alright, Yue Er, don't worry about me." Tianming simply sat on the rock, one hand propping his chin, the other waving at Yue Er, "When we return, we'll all have to hide in Ji Guan Cheng for a while. Ah, said 'a while', but actually we don't know how long we'll have to stay."
"It shouldn't take too long." Gai Nie said solemnly from the side, "Once Tumu is defeated by the Soul Society, we can naturally come out, but before Tumu is toppled, we all must reside in Ji Guan Cheng, absolutely not allowed to leave."
"Ji Guan Cheng is safe, but Uncle, I think we don't need to guard against this to such an extent?"
"No, Tianming, on the contrary, this place is still not safe enough." Gai Nie gripped the hilt of his Yu Hong sword, his usually expressionless face rare-ly showing a hint of worry, "Even within Ji Guan Cheng, Tianming, Yue Er…… you must not stray too far from me."
——
"Perhaps there is a way to resist Tumu."
"A lost 'Heart' should of course be returned to the 'Body'. Zandal certainly does not wish to see our opportunity: completing the union of body and mind, letting the Scepter return to wholeness, then…" Saying this, Xilian suddenly laughed, "Then what will happen, I also don't know, Star."
"Perhaps I can create a miracle, turning the Black Tide into a pink Star Sea in the next second. Perhaps… I am merely an insignificant ripple, destined to be swallowed by 'Destruction', unable to change anything."
Xilian clasped her hands, closed her eyes: "But no matter what, in the finale of this epic, I no longer wish to be a silent listener, or a worshipped deity……"
"We together, write the final period."
Xilian gave a light smile: "This way, Mimi can also put down all her worries, truly… become 'Xilian'."
"The world's unprecedented silence, truly wonderful, as if one could hear the sound of the heartbeat."
"Remember this moment, Star."
"..."
"Black Tower lowered his gaze to look at Zandal's head, then lifted his head to look at Zandal's projection before him."
"..."
"So, De Miu Ge deceived everyone… even herself. PhiLia093 persisted for Qian Wan Shi, tirelessly bestowing upon it Wengfaluo Si's 'Memory'…… only because the deity in her dream left a trace of hope, letting her believe that the grown De Miu Ge could oppose her own half— Tumu."
"Zandal nodded, and added: 'Afterward, PhiLia093 completed her final sacrifice, turning into a wisp of memory, completely dissipating; and the other Star Core brought by the Xingzhou Train, resonating in frequency with the polluted Scepter, attracted the naive De Miu Ge……'"
"Thus, a 'Heart' with nothing embarked on the journey back to the 'Body'."
