Volume 4: The Game of the Gods Chapter 90 All Good Things Must Come to an End
Perhaps unable to bear the sadness of parting, when Long Yu walked her to the edge of the moat, Ying Lili suddenly suppressed her sadness and tried to play a joke on Long Yu. She suddenly looked at him intently and said seriously, "Long Yu, you know what? I've always had a little wish."
At this moment, not far behind him, Mo Yi's mouth twitched noticeably, his already frosty face now looking almost like an ice sculpture. Even Ze Ze, who was standing beside him, suddenly felt an inexplicable chill and subconsciously moved closer to Yan Zheng.
Completely ignoring the nearly berserk Mo Yi behind her, Ping Lili blinked in front of Long Yu's surprised gaze: "Actually, I've always wanted to see what your tail looks like. Otherwise, why don't you quietly transform for me to see?"
As she spoke, she pointed at the moat seriously and pursed her lips, as if she wanted Long Yu to jump in immediately and transform into someone she could see.
Before Long Yu could react, the corners of Mo Yi's lips behind him had already curved into a smug arc. Compared with his previous expression, he was completely different. Although he had pretended to be generous and deliberately made some space for the two to say goodbye, the old man was very unhappy in his heart, especially when he saw Long Yu hugging Gong Lili, his heart was boiling with anger. If he hadn't thought of Gong Lili's confession underground, Mo Yi would have turned against him and taken Gong Lili away long ago. How could he allow the two of them to hold hands and look at each other in tears in front of him and be reluctant to part.
Mo Yi was immediately in a good mood after hearing these nonsensical words from Ping Lili. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Long Yu, with a hint of gloating.
The new emperor of the Ruoye tribe was in no mood to pay attention to Mo Yi. He was stunned for a moment, then looked at Yinglili's serious expression and suddenly felt a little amused. This girl, you never know what kind of bizarre ideas are in her head. But his heart was also filled with a faint warmth. In this world, she was probably the only one who could speak to him so unrestrainedly, who could make such a blunt and heartless request of him.
The sad feeling of parting also faded away in the astonishment.
But in the end, Yinglili still did not get to see Long Yu's tail as she wished. Long Yu's answer was that if Yinglili went to the South China Sea in the future, he would let her see it, otherwise, forget it.
Ping Lili finally left with a look of reluctance on her face. In Long Yu's lingering eyes, she left Yonghui City without looking back.
Besides Mo Yi, the others traveling with her were Yan Zheng and Ze Ze. Of course, the Qiongqi who had been guarding Yonghui City before was not a human, but a mount.
Yan Zheng was a man of integrity. After the Shamo people and the Ruoye tribe fell out, he didn't evacuate with the Shamo wizards, but simply gave up resistance and surrendered. It wasn't that he was cowardly, he was just stalling for time because he was waiting, waiting for Gong Lili to appear. His purpose in coming to Yonghui City again was to welcome the new chief wizard, so how could he go back alone?
Fortunately, Mu Feng was also a straightforward person. Because of the friendship they had fought side by side before, he did not make things difficult for Yan Zheng. He just put him under house arrest. After Gong Lili and others came back, he was naturally released unconditionally.
Although Mo Yi naturally disliked Shamo wizards, he couldn't say anything due to Yan Lili's insistence. After all, they were planning to sneak into Shamo City, which would be difficult without a good guide. Yan Zheng, according to Yan Lili, was a reliable and trustworthy person, so he reluctantly agreed to Yan Zheng's participation. Besides, Mo Yi had been away from the Void Realm for five hundred years and was not very familiar with everything in the Void Realm.
And Zeze, after coming out from underground, became Gonglili's little follower, and his personality changed a lot. He no longer pretended to be deep and sophisticated like before, but was more like a real human child. He loved to act coquettishly, laugh, and talk. Perhaps it was because he had gained the true freedom he had longed for, which made him feel happy from the bottom of his heart.
Jinglili was naturally delighted by Zeze's transformation. She felt that this was a normal human behavior; children should be innocent and naive, so she naturally let him be her little tail. Originally, Jinglili didn't want to take him with her to Shamo City, as they weren't going there for fun, but Zeze was very insistent.
According to Zeze, he and Gong Lili had made a blood pact in Lingyi, promising a lifelong bond. Otherwise, if the blood pact backfired, it would be a dead end. Although he didn't know how true this was, Gong Lili didn't dare take the risk and reluctantly agreed to take him along.
Furthermore, Zeze had nowhere else to go at this point, and naturally wouldn't return to Kuaiji Mountain. It turned out his so-called master, Zhuo Ao's green-clad maid, had mistakenly taken Zeze to Kuaiji Mountain because she'd mistakenly believed she was Zhuo Ao's descendant. Since Zhuo Ao had suddenly disappeared and Zeze had lost her memory, she'd secretly taken him to Kuaiji Mountain, believing that as long as Zeze was around, Zhuo Ao would eventually come looking for her. However, he hadn't realized that Zeze had no connection to Zhuo Ao at all. Zhuo Ao had only brought him from the underground to use him as a tool to open the door to the Penglai fairyland. After Zhuo Ao disappeared, he never returned, let alone come back to look for Zeze. It's likely that Zhuo Ao had completely forgotten the incident.
At this time, Zeze had recovered all his memories. Although he still had some feelings for his master, his feelings were not as deep as those for Gonglili, the person who truly gave him freedom. Naturally, he would not take the initiative to ask to go back.
However, he was still thinking about the twins sealed by Yinglili. After all, they were from the same sect, and he didn't want them to be trapped in the demon-binding ring forever, so he went to beg Yinglili. Yinglili pondered for a long time but couldn't figure out how to release the demon from the demon-binding ring. Later, thanks to Yan Zheng's reminder, he finally released the twins and let them go back to Kuaiji Mountain on their own to give an explanation to their master Zeze, and took away a drop of Yinglili's heart blood.
In addition, the 40,000 soldiers of the Fengyi Army who had been captured by the Demon Binding Ring were also released. Thanks to Yan Zheng who used all his strength to help them get rid of the demonic aura, those Fengyi Army soldiers who had originally rebelled turned a disaster into a blessing and saved their lives. For the Ruoye tribe, this was a blessing in disguise.
As a result, the Ruoye tribe also became much more polite to Yan Zheng. They felt that this young Shamo wizard was different from those Shamo people who had defected in the battle front before.
Yan Zheng didn't care about their gratitude, but because of Ying Lili's request, he couldn't refuse. Unlike Wu Su, Yan Zheng didn't have any memory of Yao Ji, so naturally he wouldn't feel any alienation towards Ying Lili. In his opinion, Ying Lili was the reincarnation of Jianyi, the god of Sha Mo, and the twelfth generation chief wizard of their Sha Mo clan. Naturally, he supported her decision unconditionally.
Even though Yan Zheng was somewhat confused about why he hadn't contacted the Shamo army led by Wu Su and had secretly returned to Shamo City, since Yinglili insisted on keeping it a secret, he didn't say anything more. Perhaps it was because of his loyal character that Yinglili trusted him so much. After all, the two of them had experienced life and death together.
There were two other people who wanted to travel with Gong Lili, but because they were both bedridden at the time, Gong Lili politely declined.
It turned out that after everything was settled that day, Zhuque cast a spell to send everyone back to Yonghui City, but Zhuque herself fell into a deep sleep that lasted for tens of millions of years. She said that she would continue to wait, waiting for Lord Xuan Yue who had broken through the void to return again.
The situation when those people returned to Yonghui City was really embarrassing. Seven people came back, and except for Gong Lili, Mo Yi and Long Yuzeze, one was dead and two were injured. Qingluan and Wei Xingying are still lying in the hospital bed. Although their lives are not in danger, they have suffered serious internal injuries, so they naturally need a long time to recuperate.
After all, internal injuries are very mysterious. Unlike broken bones that can be healed after reconnection, internal injuries cannot be treated in a hurry and can only be healed slowly.
After Wei Xingying woke up, he remembered the wicked things he had done while under the control of the demonic insect. He was instantly overwhelmed with shame. If his mother, Long Xin, hadn't been holding him back, he would have crawled to Yinglili to apologize. But how could Yinglili blame him? She knew full well that and it wasn't his will. And she felt even more guilty towards Wei Xingying. After all, it was Mo Yi who had severely injured him. She was already thankful that he didn't blame her or Mo Yi. Why would she need him to apologize?
Later, when Yinglili went to visit him, they had a heart-to-heart talk, which finally helped Wei Xingying let go of the knot in his heart. Later, he heard from somewhere that Yinglili was going back to Shamo City, and he actually struggled to run to Yinglili and asked to go with her. As Wei Xingying's mother, Long Xin not only did not stop her foolish son's impulsiveness, but also fanned the flames, saying that there is strength in numbers, and more people means more strength. But she didn't see that her son was wrapped up like a dumpling at the moment. Strength? He should be smiling secretly if he didn't hold them back.
Moreover, mother and son hadn't seen each other for hundreds of years, finally enjoying some family time together. How could Ping Lili have the nerve to ask Wei Xingying to accompany her to the uncertain future of Shamo City? In her heart, Wei Xingying was a brother, a friend, and a teacher. She sincerely wished him safety and happiness. Therefore, she had no intention of letting Wei Xingying accompany her to such a dangerous place as Shamo City.
While protecting Gong Lili, Qingluan was injured by the Purple Palace Shura. It was not serious, but she was injured after all and needed to recuperate. So although she insisted on going with Gong Lili, Gong Lili still felt a little reluctant and told her to recuperate well in Yonghui City. In order to comfort her, Gong Lili had no choice but to lie and said that she was just going to Shamo City to handle some personal matters and would come back to Yonghui City after . She asked Qingluan to rest assured to recuperate in Yonghui City and she would come back to Yonghui City to find her one day.
Gong Lili had to talk her mouth off before she reluctantly persuaded Qingluan to stay in Yonghui City for the time being to recuperate. Qingluan also saved Wei Xingying's life. Before, Wei Xingying was injured by Mo Yi. If Qingluan had not used her internal energy to protect his heart meridian, he would have died long ago. So, Wei Xingying patted his chest and said that he would take good care of Qingluan, even though his own injuries were much more serious than Qingluan's. He was wrapped like a mummy and couldn't even get out of bed. Even if he recovered, he would definitely not be Qingluan's opponent in terms of martial arts. She didn't know where he got this confidence from. However, with Wei Xingying's words, Gong Lili felt a little relieved. After all, Qingluan was her first true friend in this virtual world, and she owed Qingluan a huge favor.
Although he knew that he had lied to her and they might never meet again in the future, but if she could be safe, that was also Ping Lili's greatest wish.
And, for some reason, Yinglili still had this feeling: maybe Wei Xingying and Qingluan would meet again somewhere someday. She didn't know where this premonition came from, but it was there. Perhaps it was the sense of companionship they emanated that made her feel attached, Yinglili told herself.
The day after Ying Lili left Yonghui City, the second emperor of the Ruoye Empire, Long Yu, also set out to return to the Nanhai Imperial City. Perhaps at that time, no one would have thought that this man who was as handsome as a god and invincible in bravery would become the greatest king in the history of the Ruoye tribe.
Of course, that was a long, long time ago.
Moreover, as he said that day, his position as queen remained vacant throughout his life, and he never appointed another queen.
That was the last thing he could do for the woman named Pianpian, and also the only compensation.
Because he once told her that no matter what happened, she would still be his Crown Princess. Although she didn't live to see the day when he became the emperor, he couldn't break his promise to her.
Everyone said that he was infatuated and envied the Crown Princess who, although beautiful but unfortunate, made him care about her all his life.
In fact, no one knows that in the softest place in his heart, he has always treasured a poppy flower, so gorgeous, so dazzling, and so like a fire blooming on the cliff!
