Chapter 228: Chapter 209: If a God Wants to Kill Him, I Will Kill the God

「The Minister of Rites’ Mansion, Zhou Kingdom.」

A young woman was trimming the flowers and plants.

For Yan Ruxue, her daily life consisted of reading, embroidering, and tending to her garden.

Although there were only twenty-two days left until her wedding day, she wasn’t the least bit anxious.

To her, she had already waited for thousands of years. What was a little while longer?

’In this life, I’ll take things one step at a time and make sure no more accidents happen.’

“Miss, Miss!”

Chunyan ran into the courtyard, her voice preceding her.

“What is it? Why are you so happy?” Yan Ruxue turned around and asked gently.

“Miss,” Chunyan said, her eyes sparkling. “Someone just came from the Imperial Palace. They said that in seven days, you are to enter the palace to go through a formality with His Majesty. The mistress sent me to tell you that you need to prepare well over the next few days.”

“Mm,” Yan Ruxue nodded. “Go tell Mother that I understand.”

“Yes, Miss.” Like a rabbit, Chunyan quickly scampered off.

Not long after Chunyan left, as Yan Ruxue was watering the Cyan Dragon Flower with a watering can, a gentle breeze swept by, caressing her dark hair.

“Xiao Qing, you’re back so soon?” Yan Ruxue turned, smiling at her sister. “How did it go? Did you find out everything?”

“Sister, I’ve investigated it thoroughly.”

“What about that Empress of Qin?” Yan Ruxue poured a cup of tea and handed it to her sister.

After taking a sip, Xiao Qing began, “Sister, after I arrived at the Qin Kingdom Royal Palace, I stayed by the side of the Empress of Qin, Qin Siyao, without leaving for a moment. She seems completely normal. Her Realm is only at Qi Cultivation; she hasn’t reached Foundation Establishment.

However, her Blood Qi is vigorous, and her Spear Technique is exquisite. In the Mortal World’s martial scene, she would already be considered at the Grandmaster level. That’s truly remarkable.

As for the Ancient Body you mentioned, Sister, I really couldn’t detect it.

Unless she discovered my presence and is deliberately hiding it.

But as you know, Sister, unless someone has reached your Realm, it’s impossible for them to discover me.”

“Mm.” Yan Ruxue smoothed her dress as she sat on the stone bench, the fabric clinging to her curvaceous figure. “What about the Qin Kingdom’s intentions toward the Zhou Kingdom? Do they have any plans?”

“Because the Wanjian Sect protects the Zhou Kingdom, the Qin Kingdom currently plans to recuperate after annexing the Yan Kingdom and will not expand for the time being,” Xiao Qing reported truthfully. “During these past few days, Qin Siyao has not mentioned ’Brother Xiao’ even once.”

“I see.” A faint smile played on Yan Ruxue’s lips. “Let’s leave this matter for now. You don’t need to waste any more energy on it, Xiao Qing. In comparison, we need to invest more people on the side of the Desolate Land to find the Divine Tomb as soon as possible. I’ll need your help overseeing these things.”

“Don’t worry, Sister…”

Hearing her sister mention the Divine Tomb, Xiao Qing replied earnestly.

But a moment later, Xiao Qing’s brow furrowed. She looked conflicted, as if there was something she wanted to say but didn’t know if she should.

“Sister…” In the end, Xiao Qing raised her head. “There’s something I want to ask you, if I may.”

“Xiao Qing, if you have a question, just ask. Since when have we sisters kept secrets from each other?” Yan Ruxue smiled.

Xiao Qing unconsciously lowered her voice. “Sister, back then, was Brother Xiao’s soul really gathered by a Divine Spirit, allowing him to reincarnate?

Do the Divine Spirits of legend truly exist?

Why would It save Brother Xiao?

What was Its ultimate goal?”

“Xiao Qing, do you know how all things came to be at the dawn of creation, when the world was just a stretch of Chaos?” Instead of answering directly, Yan Ruxue looked at her sister and posed a question of her own.

“Of course, I know.”

Xiao Qing answered.

“Legend says the world began in Chaos. When Chaos first parted, it gave birth to all living things, and also to the various Divine Spirits. Each Divine Spirit controlled a certain Law of the world, and it was said They were the incarnations of the Great Dao itself.

The Divine Spirits sat upon the clouds, high and mighty.

All beings in the world were nothing more than Their slaves, Their lives and deaths subject to Their whims.”

“That is correct.”

Yan Ruxue poured her sister another cup of tea.

“But Xiao Qing.

In the legends.

Those Divine Spirits could never have imagined that the Human Race They looked down upon would so quickly learn to use fire, create tools, and even develop written language. The Human Race began to form one Dynasty after another, their pace of progress far exceeding Their imagination.

Then one day, a man appeared among the Human Race.

This man left no name behind, but he created the method of cultivation.

After that, more and more humans learned to cultivate. Animals, too, began to absorb the Sun and Moon Essence and awaken their spiritual intelligence.

And it was at this time.

One of the Divine Spirits proposed that the Human Race and the Demon Race be erased, as Their cultivation threatened the Divine Spirits’ own status.

But other Divine Spirits felt that They were, after all, inferior beings. No matter how much They cultivated, there would always be a limit.

So They continued as before, controlling the Laws of the world, finding amusement in all living things, arbitrarily instigating wars among the races, controlling their lives and deaths, and treating them all as slaves.

Until one day, the Human Race and the Demon Race joined forces to resist, fighting for their freedom, no longer willing to be controlled by the Divine Spirits.

Hearing that the ants were rebelling, most of the Divine Spirits scoffed. One of them went personally to suppress the uprising.

But the man who created the method of cultivation, longsword in hand, personally severed Its head.

It was only then that They understood: the ants They had so disdained could actually bite them to death.”

“In the end, They decided to erase the Human Race and the Demon Race from this world, and so the great war between the myriad races and the Divine Spirits erupted.”

Yan Ruxue gazed at the vast sky.

“In that great war, he led the Human Race and the Demon Race through one dark moment after another. In the end, he struck the gods down from their supreme thrones.

But he spared the life of a single god.

Although I don’t know why.

But according to legend.

That god’s authority was—Reincarnation.”

“That Cultivator who led the myriad races… could he be…” Hearing her sister’s words, Xiao Qing’s heart jolted as a guess began to form in her mind.

“I don’t know.”

Yan Ruxue shook her head.

“Antiquity is too distant. Everything is just hearsay, after all.

As for what really happened, who can truly know?

But if the legends are true, if he really killed all the other gods but deliberately spared that one…

Then this god who controls Reincarnation… must hate Xiao Mo to the bone, right?”

Yan Ruxue raised her head, staring directly at the sky.

“Perhaps It saved him only so It could kill him with Its own hands.”

“Sister…” Xiao Qing looked at her sister worriedly, tugging on her sleeve.

“Don’t worry.”

Yan Ruxue retracted her gaze, a smile in her eyes.

“If a god wants to kill him, then I will kill that god.”
