1119 The One and Only Me (2/2)

She placed her palm on the sacrificial altar of the Spirit Energy Mutual Shift Bridge and walked into the light. ”Celestial Venerable Mu, Celestial Venerable Hao has lost his disciple, and White Deity has lost his beloved general. They will definitely come forth to investigate. I can buy you some time, but it's best that you leave now.”

The Spirit Energy Mutual Shift Bridge collapsed as her figure disappeared!

”She really is a smart girl…”

Qin Mu looked at the collapsed altar and muttered, ”Should I wake her up to let her become South Deity, or should I not wake her up and let her continue to be Bai Yujing?”

He picked up the vermillion bird feather and studied it for a long time.

Behind him, Yan'er killed the four strong practitioners of the Jade Capital Realm and immediately helped the dragon qilin kill the gods and devils on the ship that was under White Deity.

Qin Mu looked at the vermillion bird feather and thought, 'Waking up the god soul of South Deity is equivalent to killing Bai Yujing. However, isn't Bai Yujing South Deity? Even if South Deity Zhu Que is awakened, Bai Yujing's memory won't disappear and will become a part of South Deity's long memory…'

Yan'er flew over and chirped, ”Young Master, the deed is done! Where's my mother?”

Qin Mu handed the vermillion bird feather to her and said, ”Yan'er, your mother didn't want to be South Deity. She was too clever and guessed that she was the reincarnation of South Deity from my words. However, she feels that being Bai Yujing or Que Feiyin is better. She thinks that if she awakens the memory of South Deity, that would mean the end for Bai Yujing and Que Feiyin.”

Yan'er was a little confused and muttered, ”But Bai Yujing, Que Feiyin, and South Deity Zhu Que, are they not her?”

Qin Mu put away the Heavenly Dragon Treasure Carriage and helped treat Yu Chudu's broken bones. ”Bai Yujing has broken the Spirit Energy Mutual Shift Bridge. She wants to delay Celestial Venerable Hao and White Deity's arrival here, but she also doesn't want us to return to the celestial heavens. She's more worried that I'll let her die again to revive the soul of South Deity.”

Yan'er still didn't understand and muttered, ”But, they are all her…”

Qin Mu couldn't help but think of Qin Fengqing. His experience was similar to Bai Yujing's.

Back then, Qin Mu had thought that he was himself, the one and only him. However, he discovered that he was the second consciousness born from Qin Fengqing's corporeal body.

He was just a consciousness born accidentally. It wasn't only his corporeal body that wasn't his, but his soul as well.

All he had was his consciousness.

Later, Qin Mu dug his eye out and was reborn. Only after that did he have his own soul.

How was Bai Yujing's experience similar to his? Bai Yujing's experience was even worse. She was reincarnated for nearly 200 lifetimes, always struggling to survive, forcing herself to become smarter.

Naturally, she would find it hard to accept that she wasn't herself but the reincarnation of South Deity.

”Disciple Nephew, are you able to walk?” Qin Mu asked after he was done attending to his injuries.

Yu Chudu stood up and moved around twice. He realized that the injuries on his body had recovered. The same couldn't be said about the injuries suffered by his primordial spirit. Qin Mu's creation technique could heal the flesh but wasn't as good at healing the wounds of primordial spirits.

”I can walk, Senior Uncle…”

Yu Chudu hesitated and examined Qin Mu. ”I never heard my master mention that I have a senior uncle…”

”You have two senior uncles. I'll tell you more when we have time.”

Qin Mu gave a flick, and the old gods that were guarding the Endless Clouds Palace fell asleep. Their memories were tampered with by him, with the memory of seeing him and the rest wiped. He then smiled and said, ”Let's go. We can't use the Heavenly Dragon Treasure Carriage anymore, as it will definitely leave a trace and be spotted by others, and Celestial Venerable Hao would know that it was me who killed his disciple. Disciple Nephew Yu, do you know of any shortcuts that can allow us to leave here and return to the celestial heavens quickly?”

”Senior Uncle, the closest route would be from White Earth Hope Prefecture, which is the Central God Prefecture of the nine prefectures. There's a Spirit Energy Mutual Shift Bridge there that leads to the White Deity Celestial Palace. If we walk from the starry sky, I'm afraid it'll take fifty or sixty years to reach the celestial heavens.”
