Chapter 517: Not listening, not listening, the big lotus is chanting

"What about after winning?" Nezha was concerned about this.

"After..." Tang An couldn't say why. "I am also looking for an answer, but I haven't been able to find it yet."

Nezha walked toward Tang An and reached out to brush away her stray hair.

"Have you never thought about resisting?"

Tang An nodded. "I have, but it's useless."

"Why?"

"As the seven emotions and six desires slowly fade, even my obsessions are about to be erased, so how could I still have the belief to resist?"

Nezha's eyes flickered, as if he suddenly thought of something.

"Is it possible that if something happens that is enough to stimulate you and cause your emotions to fluctuate greatly, it could help you offset the fading of your seven emotions and six desires and regain your belief?"

If Tang An had given up on herself, then no matter who it was, it would be difficult to save her.

Only by letting her regain the belief to resist to the end would there be a turning point.

Tang An thought for a while and said, "Now, I'm about to lose all my emotions; what else could happen that would be able to stimulate me?"

Nezha grabbed Tang An's wrist, making her look him in the eye.

"Have you forgotten?"

"What?"

"You once told the little honeybee of the Miefa Kingdom to be sure to save herself from fire and water again, and again, and again without end."

"I want to say the same thing to you." Nezha looked at her incomparably seriously, his eyes filled with pleading. "Please also be sure to save yourself from fire and water again, and again, and again without end."

"Don't give up, not for anyone, just for yourself."

Tang An looked at Nezha, unable to speak for a long time.

These few sentences were enough to be deafening to her.

"You remember all of it?"

Nezha saw the emotional fluctuation in Tang An's eyes; he knew Tang An had listened. "I remember everything you said."

"Is that so?"

"Of course."

"Then tell me, what did I say when I took you to steal the tower in my dream before?"

"Ah?"

"Didn't you say you remember everything?"

"I... your dream, I..."

"Sigh, men's mouths, deceiving ghosts."

Nezha:...

"Do you want to hear what you asked? Do you dare to ask something you said yourself?"

"Heh, honeyed words, glib tongue."

"No, you haven't even asked yet, and I haven't argued."

"Not listening, not listening, not listening, the big lotus is chanting." Tang An covered her ears, refusing to listen to Nezha's explanation no matter what.

For every sentence Nezha said, she could babble ten.

On the other side, Sun Wukong and Yang Jian were drinking wine under the moon.

Hearing their little-kid-style bickering, they couldn't help but smile at each other.

"If Master could always maintain her previous personality, how good would that be." Sun Wukong recalled when he first met Tang An; she was like a little sun that always brought warmth to people, full of vitality.

Sometimes her vitality was too much, making people want to take out her batteries.

Yang Jian had the same thought. "Master has helped us so much; after this battle is completely over, we must also find a way to make Master recover as before."

"Even if there is a glimmer of hope, I am willing to try."

The two clinked their wine, clearly both thinking the same way.

On the day of the counterattack, it was also before the Purifying World Green Lotus was about to merge and be born.

The Heavenly Soldiers and Generals of the Heavenly Court, Bai Qi's million underworld soldiers, and the Great Tang's million iron cavalry all gathered here.

For the sake of safety, Tang An even condensed the Great Tang's fortune onto the million iron cavalry.

"Everyone, this Venerable One will not elaborate too much on the previous plan."

"Everyone should remember that only when we thoroughly end the Outer Realm Demon Race can our descendants enjoy peace and not have to suffer the pain of war between the two realms again."

"We have no way back, because every step back is the sacrifice of thousands of soldiers in vain. It is using their lives to fill the humiliation!"

"So this battle is a death battle! We can only win, we cannot lose!"

The heaven, earth, and human armies were neatly arranged in mid-air, and the murderous aura had already been ignited.

"Swear not to retreat to the death!"

"Swear not to retreat to the death!"

"Swear not to retreat to the death!"

Tang An nodded and looked at the Jade Emperor, Li Shimin, and Bai Qi.

For the mobilization before the battle that followed, let them each take action.

She believed that as long as the morale was high enough and the heaven, earth, and people were condensed into a rope, the chance of winning this battle was still very high.

Taishang Laojun looked at Tang An with eyes full of the gratification of watching his own child grow up.

"Tell me, besides her, who else in the Three Realms can condense three forces into one rope."

"Even if she is still a mortal at this time, just with her appeal, it is something that Saints cannot compare to."

Tongtian Jiaozhu sighed deeply. "But the price of her growth is too great."

Taishang Laojun also felt heartache. "The causality on her is too broad; it is precisely because of those causalities that she has today's appeal and cohesion to lead the three armies."

"It is also those causalities that made her have to achieve the position of a Great Dao Saint, and in the future, she might even..."

"Everything has two sides; how can you and I say whether it is good or bad."

Everything was ready, and Tang An teleported over.

"Uncle-Master, Second Uncle-Master, Master, Senior Wutian, Saint Kong Xuan." Tang An bowed to them. "From here on, it depends on you all."

Kong Xuan was still very uncomfortable with Tang An calling him by the title of Saint Kong Xuan. "You'd better call me Flower Peacock."

Tang An smiled lightly. "Saint Flower Peacock?"

"No, no, no, just call me Flower Peacock, otherwise whatever you call me feels weird."

"So be it." Tang An stopped struggling and looked at Wutian.

"Senior Wutian, for this counterattack, we have to rely on you to transmit the location of the demon nests at any time."

Wutian nodded, and the World-Extinguishing Black Lotus appeared in his palm.

During the days he stayed in the Outer Realm, he had already fully controlled the Outer Realm through the World-Extinguishing Black Lotus.

He had already found the locations of the remaining demon nests. Even if the demon nests were moved by the Ancestral Demons, he could quickly lock onto their locations.

"Let's go." Wutian had already shared the locations with several Saints.

"Hmm."

Tang An appeared before the army, raised her hand and slid her fingers lightly, directly opening a passage to the Outer Realm.

"The Outer Realm passage has been opened."

"Everyone."

"This battle, I leave it to you."

The soldiers of the three armies also clasped their fists and bowed to Tang An.

"We will definitely not fail the Princess's trust!"

"For the Three Realms, slay the Heavenly Demons!"

"Kill!"

It was obvious that this was the human race, the heavenly soldiers, and the underworld soldiers responding respectively.

Tang An pointed to the Outer Realm passage. "Kill!"

Following Tang An's final word, several Saints led the three armies and moved out respectively.

Finally, when only Tang An and Sun Wukong's group of three remained, they looked back at Jiuyue on the Demon-Suppressing Pass.

Jiuyue waved at them. "Sister, Monkey Brother, Second Brother, Third Brother."

"You must come back safely!"

"Jiuyue will wait here for your triumphant return; you must, you must come back safely..."

Her voice was choked with sobs, and her tears wouldn't listen to her at all.

"Silly girl." Tang An touched her hair through the air. "Sister will bring them back."

"We will all come back safely."

"Hmm." Sun Wukong and the others didn't say much. Because Tang An had said that words before the battle shouldn't be said casually, and even less should they be said randomly, as it was unlucky.

"Hmm." Jiuyue wiped away her tears and squeezed out a smile that was uglier than crying. "Okay." She waved at the four of them and watched them leave with a smile.

As soon as they left, she couldn't control herself and squatted on the ground, holding her head and crying bitterly.

She wasn't stupid; she knew what kind of mindset Tang An and the others had gone with.

Leaving her behind wasn't to guard any Demon-Suppressing Pass.

It was nothing more than thinking that if an accident happened, at least one of the scripture seekers had to be left alive. ===== CHAPTER 518 =====
