Chapter 1565: Chapter 292: She, Her, and Herself

The eyes on the face of the corpse had disappeared, leaving only two dark, empty holes.

Boss Luo reached out his hand, gently wiping to the left, and the bones piled upon this corpse were moved to the side by an invisible force; his hand continued to sweep to the right, and the other side was the same.

These scattered bones did not just pile up randomly after being separated but instead began to sort themselves… or find their respective parts.

One by one, the corpses hidden in this secret chamber started to reorganize themselves back to their original form – though they were still just bones.

Yet, they were no longer scattered, even though white bones remained white bones and mummified bodies remained mummified.

They stood in two rows, with a force supporting their bodies from collapsing… a faint glow began to spread in the secret chamber, and gradually a gray mist began to emerge, thin and faint.

These were all past failed containers, eventually buried… or abandoned in this place.

Boss Luo could easily sense the resentment emanating from their bones, but most of it was just pure resentment; they no longer even had a trace of consciousness.

Only the corpse sitting against the wall, buried among the many bones, still retained something… although it was also resentment, there was something else.

It was like a spark about to be extinguished in a wind and snowstorm. Yet, someone… perhaps it was herself, was cautiously guarding this tiny flame with body and hands in the wind and snow.

It might extinguish soon if Boss Luo hadn’t arrived here… perhaps not long, half a day, a few hours, maybe the next second.

Thus, Boss Luo squatted down before this corpse that still had something left, looking at her… at her empty eye sockets.

“This was given to you by your father, it gives you thoughts and beliefs.”

Saying this, Luo opened his palm, and a golden eyeball floated out from the center of his hand… The Left Eye of Horus, something the Pharaoh personally excavated.

The golden eyeball flew out from Boss Luo’s palm… instantly embedding into the left eye socket of this corpse, the golden eyeball embedding perfectly within her eye socket, soon merging with her body.

The next moment, Boss Luo extended his other palm, opening it… a sphere bathed in golden light appeared. The sphere bathed in golden light then slowly flew to the abdomen of the corpse, nesting within, “This is also given to you by your father… It grants you life and power.”

With that, the half-mummified corpse buried here slowly began to float.

Her body started to swell bit by bit, the shriveled body seeming to absorb water like parched earth.

Veins began to pulse, her chest started to move, that was the rhythm of life. The faint mist within the secret chamber was being inhaled bit by bit by her… along with her breath.

Finally, her body returned to the appearance of a living person… a form Luo Qiu was familiar with, the form of Yamana, or perhaps Claudia… She had probably used both identities before, maybe even more.

She opened her eyes… The residue within her resentment and the Pharaoh of the Kingdom’s memory within the Left Eye of Horus easily merged perfectly under Boss Luo’s ability.

“It doesn’t matter if you don’t know who I am.” Boss Luo said softly at this moment, “Now you are a life that has returned to fulfill the Pharaoh’s wish… and also a part of the High Priest’s. You are their mutual daughter, all their love, and expectations have been bestowed upon you.”

“Father…”

“Go…” Boss Luo said gently, “Princess.”

…

…

The mysterious girl… The Will of the Scales now wasn’t interested in whether the idiot Otto mentioned was really the red Lamp God – she actually wasn’t that interested in the Lamp God.

Perhaps the Magic Lamp was fine, after all, it could be considered a Divine Artifact.

The divinized Xie Jiatu appeared shaky… but on the other side, the divinized Pharaoh of the Kingdom started slowly crawling up, the once dying Pharaoh now looked terrible, yet seemed nowhere near death… At once his fleshy wings flapped behind him, landing beside Xie Jiatu.

Jackal-headed and eagle-headed, the two stood together, one couldn’t help but feel a strange sensation… the forms they divinized were once mortal enemies, Gods with a history of mortal grievance.

The Will of the Scales couldn’t help but blink in curiosity, softly opening her mouth, “Eh, you were actually conscious?”

The Pharaoh and Xie Jiatu exchanged a glance… the Pharaoh didn’t speak, Xie Jiatu slowly said, “No, we have never been conscious.”

“Huh?”

Xie Jiatu exhaled, saying, “Precisely because we weren’t conscious, we kept… moving forward and marking time for an elusive wish.”

“You were always performing?” The Will of the Scales frowned, curiously asking, “Since when?”

“When Yamana’s mother died.” Xie Jiatu took a deep breath, “We created many Yamanas, but only this generation’s Yamana was nurtured via conception… The Pharaoh loved Yamana’s mother deeply, and changes outside all the data collected over the years began with Yamana’s mother’s death.”

The Will of the Scales fell silent, contemplative, not knowing what to think.

Xie Jiatu said in a deep voice, “Without the death of Yamana’s mother, I would still be immersed in everything you created, I would still be that Xie Jiatu who believed himself possessed by evil thoughts left by Set, leading to heart’s desires.”

The Will of the Scales sneered, “Everything about you is under my surveillance, now that you’ve awakened… it won’t escape me.”

“Is that so.” Xie Jiatu shook his head, “Indeed, within the City of the Sun, there is a monitoring system I have set up. I can see everything happening here, and so can you… If I am the eyes behind the City of the Sun, then you are my eyes behind me. But there is one place you can never see… as long as you remain within the City of the Sun!”

“Outside?” The Will of the Scales recalled something and then suddenly realized, “You… you all?”

Xie Jiatu glanced at the Pharaoh beside him, calmly saying, “Sometimes it’s me, sometimes it’s him… sometimes it’s Claudia, sometimes it’s Yamana. They are all our daughters, and we are all their fathers. Everything that happened outside, where you cannot see, created the truly perfect containers.”

“In the end, the results are the same, aren’t they?” The Will of the Scales smiled slightly, “Thank you all, it seems I should have let you wake up earlier… this way, there wouldn’t have been so many failures, looks like I was too conservative.”

“The result won’t be the same.” The one who spoke was not Xie Jiatu, but the Pharaoh of the Kingdom, as he opened his wings behind him, eyes flashing with anger, “Because you will vanish, and Yamana will perfectly master the powers of the Scales… not subject to anyone’s control! Not even you, the original intent of the Scales!”

“Just you?”

The Will of the Scales seemed to have heard a hilarious joke, “Two beings with their source of power gouged out, neither human nor monster? How foolish… You think you truly acquired power after deification? I must tell you a sad truth, the one you turned to for help and what stands behind it, are possibly the most malevolent since the beginning of the world! The source of power for Horus and Set users, is what you handed over! Ridiculous, you gave away the real power to obtain this so-called deification.”

The Will of the Scales shook its head, “How do you expect to deal with me?”

With that, the Will of the Scales waved a hand, and the void illuminated… A balance emitting shimmering golden light slowly appeared before everyone.

Embraced by the Will of the Scales, Yamana slowly extended her hands to receive the Scales of Good and Evil into her grasp.

The Will of the Scales softly murmured in Yamana’s ear, “My master, can you see the world’s evil… Your justice is being desecrated by mortals. Judge them… Use me to judge these foolish, desire-driven ugly beings.”

Yamana instantly raised the scales in her hands high, a golden light shot out, piercing through the earth in an instant… Afterwards, the entire underground dark river began to boil!

Holding the scales, Yamana flew up through the hole pierced in the earth.

The Pharaoh and Xie Jiatu saw this and, without any hesitation, roared and followed suit… The tomb began to collapse after this, with large stones falling.

The red Lamp God saw this and quickly exhaled a breath; the curtain that turned into tattered cloth on the ground flew up again, swiftly wrapping the panic-stricken Little Maid Arian… Mr. Otto and Yiben, seeing this, immediately reached out to grab the tail of the curtain, refusing to let go.

“Otto, you bastard, get down!” The Lamp God saw this, lifted his foot to kick Mr. Otto, but realized Mr. Otto knew the whereabouts of ‘that person,’ and had to forcefully hold back, unable to decide whether to kick him or not!

It didn’t know when exactly it started being easily manipulated by this Otto bastard… Clearly at the beginning, this guy was such an innocent boy?

“Your Highness!”

While the Lamp God was having a stomachache, the Little Maid Arian suddenly jumped off the curtain and ran towards the left Light Gate… The Lamp God saw this, cursed under its breath, and had no choice but to drive the curtain to catch up.

Wearing the Golden Armor, the Little Maid could not wield its power but had greatly enhanced physical abilities, reaching the left Light Gate in the blink of an eye.

Unexpectedly, just as she arrived, the light on the left Light Gate disappeared.

Arian didn’t hesitate, stuck her head in, and saw inside the left Light Gate, just a small stone chamber… A narrow space no more than two meters wide and long!

There was absolutely nothing here, and the Princess thrown in by Yamana was lying on the ground unconscious… Without hesitation, Arian reached out to pull the Princess out and jumped onto the curtain.

Seeing that this place was about to collapse, the Lamp God hurriedly guided the curtain to squeeze out through the hole pierced by the golden light.

It collapsed.

But just before it did, a figure suddenly flew out slowly from the chamber filled with corpses… Quickly, this figure also followed the hole to leave.

In the end, the falling giant stones completely buried the tomb.

Before burying, the sarcophagus in the tomb unexpectedly disappeared from the spot after a glimmer.

…

…

The flying curtain carried everyone, leaving the collapsing underground dark space in disarray, returning once more to the square where the Miniature Temple was located.

The Lamp God didn’t kick Otto again because the enraged Little Maid turned her head, glared, and scolded… The Lamp God held its tongue.

This further attested that this arrogant Lamp God was ultimately afraid of women… Only the heavens knew what kind of psychological shadow this Lamp God had from the lover of its mentor, the previous Lamp God?

“Your Highness, Your Highness? Wake up? Your Highness?”

The one rescued from the left Light Gate was the Princess, who, under the shake of the Little Maid, slightly moved her eyes and slowly opened them… A hint of confusion flickered in her gaze.

Mr. Otto stepped forward, “Who are you now? Claudia? Yamana?”

The Will of the Scales had mentioned that by choosing the left door, she would gain freedom… Xie Jiatu also said in the end to choose the left Light Gate.

At this moment, the Princess’s eyes seemed clearer… But she shook her head, said nothing, only broke free from Arian’s embrace, stood up, and looked forward, “What on earth happened?”

“As you saw.” Mr. Otto continued to focus on the Princess, “The High Priest, who has always played the villain, and the Pharaoh of the kingdom devised an uprooting plan, now fighting the revealed Will of the Scales, hoping to eliminate it. Additionally, the girl incarnated by the Will of the Scale is your mother, as you know.”

“She’s not my mother.” The Princess calmly glanced at Mr. Otto, then looked at the Little Maid, paused for a moment, and said, “Arian, this is my first request… Up there, there are my father and adoptive father, can you help save them?”

“It would be my honor, Your Highness!” The Little Maid hurriedly wiped away her tears and nodded heavily.

The Lamp God inwardly sighed, wondering what was wrong with the summoner’s head this time… But it knew well that only such pure-hearted, selfless people could respond to the Magic Lamp.

Emmmm… Apart from a certain someone—after becoming the Lamp Genie for so many thousands of years, the red Lamp God realized for the first time that this Magic Lamp, damn it, also fears the wicked!

Bah, what nonsense!

“Lord Lamp God!! Stop spacing out!!”

“… I’ll die if I must!” The Lamp God shouted twice, braced itself, and charged forward.

At this moment, it not only had to face Yamana holding the Golden Scales, and the girl of the Will of the Scale, but even the now animated Goddess Statue empowered by the scales.

Indeed, the massive Goddess Statue exposed after the outer wall peeled off had “come alive”…
