Chapter 522: First Meeting (1/2)
Bai Xue, the source of life, and Wang Ling, the giver of life. The two stared at each other's eyes, both captivated. It had been so long since they last met, and the longing and loss for each other welled up in their chests.
”It has been a long time since I last saw you die before my eyes.” Bai Xue's words rang in Wang Ling's head, she moved close to him and held his face, ”At the time, I was still weak, and incapable of even protecting myself much less the people we cared for.
”You sacrificed yourself and gave me enough time to grow, for your decisiveness, I admired and adored you. For millennia I waited for you, only remembering you and our brief time together. I missed you, Ling… however…”
Bai Xue's eyes changed to striking rage. Bloodlust crept over to Wang Ling while, ”You left me… but worst of all, you left our daughter to grow up without a father… I know it might have been out of your control but… this rage cannot simply be appeased. I need it pacified.”
Wang Ling opened his arms wide, opening himself to Bai Xue, ”Strike me down if you m—”
”Grit your teeth.” As she had lived after all this time, Bai Xue did not hesitate to gather her qi to her palms, killing intent meld into her palms, and qi from the seventh generation Deities surfaced, coalescing into her hands glowing… Bai Xue touched Wang Ling's chest,
”Mama! WAIT!” From below, Qinyang saw what Bai Xue was about to do. She called out to her mother but it fell into deaf ears.
”This is for leaving me behind when we could have fought it together.” Bai Xue's frustration that lasted for millennia was given to Wang Ling. Frost, Lightning, Fire, Earth, Water, Wind, and so many more kinds of elements exploded on Wang Ling's chest. Chaotic, ever-changing without any proper form, it was a powerful blast that, was felt a second later.
BOOM!
Wang Ling was sent flying tens of thousands of kilometers. Wang Ling did not fight back, he knew he deserved this and just accepted the full blast. His clothing absorbed a majority of the blow yet it was ripped apart all the same. His expression changed and from above he saw Bai Xue with her legs raised emanating dangerous qi of the fifth-generation deities.
”This is for dying and leaving our daughter to grow up without a father.” With an even stronger Output, Bai Xue bashed through Wang Ling's defenses and buried his body on the ground for hundreds of meters deep.
A crater that spans for kilometers appeared with magma escaping from the depths. Wang Ling lie on the floor, his body remained untouched, but blue blood flowed out of his mouth. Bai Xue landed beside Wang Ling, lifted him by the collars, ”This is for leaving me behind—”
Qinyang arrived hundreds of meters away from her parents. She saw her mother hold her father up by the collars of his robes, the rage, and frustration apparent in her eyes.
”Mama, what would you do if you Papa again?” often, the young Qinyang would ask to her mother when she was but a wee lass.
To which Bai Xue would answer honestly, albeit in a joking tone, ”If I meet him again, I'll beat him up to an inch of his life that he'll make a round trip to the Wheel of Reincarnation and back.”
”So, you will kill Papa?”
