Chapter 526: Splintered (1/2)
”Protectors, huh, from slaughtering millions of evil cultivators that threaten the Wang Family and resources for our growth, to killing trillions to save our Family… doesn't seem that different to me.” Wang Ling laughed realizing the truth of his current life.
Bai Xue thought back to it, and, in the end, laughed, ”It does seem like that, huh…”
The two continued their move and circled the entire Deity Paradise in a matter of minutes. The pair could scan the world in a heartbeat, sending out their Spirit Senses and spanning the world's entirety in a manner of seconds. But, Wang Ling and Bai Xue chose to observe the world through this mundane means.
Though it took them minutes to circumvent the world and sat atop Qinyang's rooftop where they sat in silence, they did not mind. They overlooked the horizon that was about to set, their minds settled.
”Xue, I understand that the previous incarnation and you are the same… but I remember her consciousness and yours are different. So, what happened to the first Mother of Beast?” Wang Ling's surprised Bai Xue.
”Well, upon your death, she escaped into the deepest parts of my psyche, I regained my control of myself, and because of my fear that she'll touch Qinyang, I expunged her from my very existence. She is no longer inside me as we speak.”
”Is that so… well, I don't even know if the predecessor still exists in the void, it doesn't really matter.” Wang Ling just smiled wryly, and a sense of hollowness was carved out from his heart. It was painful though he had not even known of what it was.
A sigh escaped the tiny fox's mouth, ”Do you really need to know?”
”It is a request from the one who came before me. He left me a simple message to tell his ”other half” it was but a sentimental gibberish he held within. I do not even know if it was the truth or not, though I am more inclined to believe that it is.”
”…fine, but, when I take you to her, I won't be helping you.” Bai Xue jumped off Wang Ling's head and floated right in front of him.
Wang Ling's eyes glistened from excitement, ”Really!?”
Noticing this, Bai Xue shook her head, [It appears his awakening isn't entirely complete… something else is still tugging upon the Chaos Qi, and it is not just the Gray Figure.]
Standing up Wang Ling walked on space he appeared next to Bai Xue.
Bai Xue lifted her front paws and then dragged her claw in mid-air where there was nothing. Her claw glowed a crimson light, around this claw, reality bend according to her will, and Bai Xue manipulated it to her demands.
To anyone else, it would sound as though a light breeze had passed, but to Wang Ling, it was grating and piercing. Quickly, he isolated the space around them, fearing it would disturb Qinyang's slumber. Wang Ling wanted to ask what was happening, though he was already beyond the comprehension of all except one, there were still many he has yet to understand.
