Chapter 480

So then, the Nine Li absolutely never expected——

It had imagined planting Xi Xi, but that couldn't be achieved; instead, it itself was first planted into the living soil.

But can the living soil really, relying on the power of Great Purity, smoothly revive the Nine Li?

Shen Qingli actually had no confidence in her heart, 'the Li...'

At this moment, Di Jin had also fallen beside her, even winding his fingertips between her fingers, tightly holding her hand.

'Don't worry.' Di Jin understood her unease, 'The little cat will come back.'

Shen Qingli looked at his fair, slender fingers, yet she lifted them to her chest and asked, 'It hurts, right?'

Drawing blood from the heart with all ten fingers connected to the heart—how could it not hurt? It definitely hurts.

But it's probably much better than knowing she truly forgot him!

She almost mistook Ji Zhongwen for the antidote to the love spell.

She even hit him……

'It really hurts, right?'

Raising her head to look at Di Jin, Shen Qingli reached out to caress half of his face.

The side that she had hit……

Moreover, because she was unwilling, he drew the love spell onto himself.

'Idiot.'

Shen Qingli did not approve of his doing that!

'You clearly know I can't remember, yet you still do this—aren't you afraid of dying? If you really die because of this, how am I supposed to remember later?'

The more Shen Qingli spoke, the angrier she became, but Di Jin had already leaned over and embraced her, 'But no matter what, I will never force you, and I could never let you die.'

No matter how great the anger.

It will always fade away.

Shen Qingli was only angry at herself for really having forgotten.

And he, on the contrary, truly was as he said……

He had said, 'Don't worry, even if you forget me, it's fine. I will definitely come find you.'

——He indeed came; when she first ascended to Great Purity again, he rushed toward her, and even before that! She had even forgotten his existence because of that old Daoist, Great Purity!

He also said, 'Before Great Purity, we cannot lie; as you feared, I will likely temporarily lose my memory. But I believe that it won't take long, and I will surely remember.'

'You are not only my wife, but also my wife's elder sister; whenever you call me by my full name, I can't help but feel nervous and wonder if I've angered you, sister. I won't forget, it's instinct.'

——He still managed to do so; even if he lost his memory, he indeed remembered again not long after.

And she, she truly forgot for a very long time; if it weren't for that old Daoist, Great Purity, having ulterior motives, she might never have remembered again.

He also said, 'Even if you no longer like me, I will still cling to you relentlessly.'

——He also still did that.

After the love spell was resolved, she ran away, yet he still clung to her.

At the very end, he still said, 'Trust me.'

——She believed him, and he proved that her trust was truly not misplaced.

Every promise he made to her, he truly kept each one.

Each one, he kept……

From childhood to adulthood, even from the previous life to this one.

No, from when he was merely a consciousness, he has always responded to every sentence.

……

The past played like images, continuously replaying in Shen Qingli's mind, making it even harder for her to be angry at him, only to hold him tightly!

'Never again.' Shen Qingli did not want such an experience to happen again.

At this very moment, she could still clearly recall that sentence——

'Shen Qingli (Di Jin), we husband and wife, now in Great Purity, our love severed, our fate ended.'

Sixteen characters, recalling them brings pain and endless dread; she truly had forgotten him.

She had thought she could leave traces of him in the Primordial Spirit Realm, but she failed to retain them! She had truly forgotten him completely.

'Definitely not.' Di Jin promised, he is already the strongest existence! Who could still separate him and his wife's elder sister?

Shen Qingli, however, suddenly said, 'But it's strange; I clearly left your things in the Primordial Spirit Realm and made many records, so why are they all gone?'

The Primordial Spirit Realm clearly ought to be able to resist Great Purity, right?

Di Jin replied helplessly, 'I thought you had remembered and would stay intimate with me for a while, but you already want to get back to business so quickly?'

Shen Qingli froze for a moment, 'I,'

Di Jin covered her mouth, answering without needing her explanation, 'I suspect it's because you awakened the Mysterious Yin source power.'

Shen Qingli gripped the back of his hand; although she understood he was deliberately poking her, she still reached out to embrace his shoulders and back, pulling him back into her embrace, though……

Of course, the important matter must not be forgotten either, 'It should be.'

The Primordial Spirit Realm's final advancement indeed occurred when she awakened this power.

'But according to the Dao Expansion Great Canon, yin and yang taiji are not derived from Great Purity, are they?'

'If that's the case, after I awaken the Mysterious Yin source power, I would be even more subject to Great Purity; could it be that he is not truly Great Purity?'

Shen Qingli is somewhat unable to figure it out; moreover, the offspring she and Ah Jin jointly nurtured also show a tendency to revert to ancestry toward Great Purity. Hmm, could it be because of the child?

Regarding this, Di Jin also has his own view: 'Although we derive from Great Purity, the true Great Purity that we evolved into has obviously long since dissipated into the universe, becoming the source of the Dao and its laws.'

The present Great Purity, essentially, can only be considered a fragment of consciousness of Great Purity; tentatively, it can be called that lingering consciousness of Great Purity unwilling to dissipate.

Put simply, it is that stray thought that arises when a cultivator goes into qi deviation. Actually, from the perspective of Great Purity, he wants to control the Three Pure Ones and do as he pleases, which is not wrong, after all, this world is precisely what he evolved from.

Shen Qingli also agreed, "But even ants cling to life; the sentient beings of the Three Pure Realms, including us, are not willing to just wait for death. So, only he can die."

"Hmm." Di Jin also thought so.

Otherwise?

To fulfill the Grand Pure Old Daoist.

They, the ones they care about, go to die?

Impossible.

Shen Qingli's very firm will! Also decided that the Primordial Spirit Realm would not show mercy in the process of devouring the Grand Pure.

"Victors become kings, losers become bandits; it has always been this way."

While Shen Qingli was speaking, she could still clearly feel the Grand Pure Old Daoist's reluctance!

But what of it?

In his view, he is not wrong.

He merely does not want to be a sacrifice; he wants to retake the Three Pure Realms and control them at will.

But what wrong have the myriad beings of the Three Pure Realms done?

Shen Qingli only wants to protect her kin and friends; what's wrong with that?

"One day! When the sentient beings of your world also wish to rebel against you, I hope you will think the same!"

The Grand Pure Old Daoist's unwilling roar still sprayed onto Shen Qingli through the magical soil and the Primordial Spirit Realm, but this also means he truly cannot break free, he's panicked!

However, Little Fusang was the first to say, "I will never betray A Li!"

"Is that so? When she wants you to die!" The Grand Pure Old Daoist sneered, "Just like now, I want her dead, and someday she will want you dead—what's the difference?"

"Then let's die."

Little Fusang doesn't care at all; it exists only because of Shen Qingli, so what does it matter if it dies for her?

"I won't."

Shen Qingli could never let Little Fusang die!

However, she suddenly realized——

Why, after awakening the Primordial Yin Source Power, she, who prompted the advancement of the Primordial Spirit Realm, could instead resist the Grand Pure Old Daoist—and even digest him.
