"I can only tell you." 02 said.
Ding Yiqing looked at Wang Mufeng and said,"I don't have any secrets with the king. If you tell me now, I will tell the king later.”
"I'm not sure if I'll tell the king, but I only want to tell you now.”02 insisted.
Wang Mufeng raised his eyebrows and said,"Alright then, I'll take them away."”
Only Ding Yiqing and 02 were left. " Please set up a soundproof barrier," 02 said." I don't want anyone to hear this."”
Ding Yiqing hesitated for a moment before casting a soundproof barrier. He said calmly,"Can we do it now?"
02 stood up and looked straight at Ding Yiqing.""Actually, I've always thought that Realmkeeper Xiang Yuan wasn't suited to be a Realmkeeper. She was indeed only suited to be a human. Her emotions were too rich. This wasn't something a Realm Guardian should have. "As for you, although you were created by Realmkeeper Xiangyuan, you've already gained your own thoughts, soul, and emotions after so long. From how Realmkeeper Xiangyuan went berserk this time, you're more suitable to exist in this world as a Realmkeeper than her.”
"Is that all you wanted to say?"
"Of course not. What this world needs is someone like you, not someone like Xiang Yuan who gave up the entire world for one person. What we need is a World Guardian who can protect us and not destroy us at any time.”
"I was created by her. Without her, I would also disappear. At that time, you would not have any Realm Guardians.”Ding Yiqing said coldly.
"You like the king, right?" 02 suddenly said.
"What?" Ding Yiqing didn't expect him to suddenly say this.
"As long as you're not blind, anyone can tell that you have deep feelings for the king," said 02 calmly. However, the king only saw Realmguard Xiang Yuan. Everything he did was for her. No matter how much you accompany him, he won't see your hard work and won't feel your love. Have you never thought about changing anything?”
"What do you mean?" Ding Yiqing's face darkened.
"You know the method to seize the Realm Guardian's power, and you have her trust in you. As long as you take all of her power, you will be a complete Realm Guardian. You can seal and hide her and tell the King that you are her. The King won't suspect anything because he'll be bewitched by your power. He also believes that you won't do anything that will harm Realmkeeper Xiangyuan."
"I'll pretend I didn't hear that." Ding Yiqing suddenly interrupted him." I wish you a smooth journey to the Divine Realm. I also hope that we can see you the next time we go to the Divine Realm. " Speaking of which, if you succeed, you will be the first residents of the Void Zone to become gods! Don't disappoint me."
02's face turned pale. Ding Yiqing removed the soundproof barrier and walked a few steps. He turned around and said," In order to repay your contributions to the Void Zone, I will set up five layers of protective enchantments for each of you.”With that, he called Wang Mu Feng and the others in. Wang Mufeng brought 05 and 07 in and sent them to the end of the Void Zone with Ding Yiqing. There, Ding Yiqing set up a protective barrier for them as promised and then watched them enter. "What did 02 say to you?" Wang Mufeng asked Ding Yiqing.”
"It's nothing." "Just say that you hope I can be a good Realm Guardian.”
Wang Mu Feng replied with an "oh" and didn't ask further, even though he felt that the truth wasn't that simple.
Ding Yiqing looked up at the sky of the Void Zone, his heart full of worries.?
The other person with a heavy heart was Ding Xiang Yuan. Ever since she returned from the Living Spirit World, she had locked herself in her room and sat in front of the big screen in a daze. Ding Yiqing had gone over several times to erase the image on the big screen, wanting her to step out and do something else, but it was useless. Even if there was no image, Ding Xiangyuan would still be in a daze.
Although her body was no longer considered human, it was still based on human genes. Therefore, she was haggard and thinner day by day. Wang Mu Feng knew why she was so worried, but he didn't know how to comfort her.
On this day, Ding Yiqing took a day off from Wang Mufeng and came to Ding Xiangyuan's side. Ding Xiangyuan was still looking at the screen, her eyes empty and blank. Ding Yiqing turned her body around and looked into her eyes. He smiled and said,""Do you want to go out for a walk?"
Ding Xiang Yuan did not answer. Ding Yiqing continued," Let's go to the Spiritual Realm. I want to go shopping with you and experience human life."”
Ding Xiangyuan's face lit up.""Living Spirit Realm?"
"Yes, I am. Don't you like that place the most?"
"But, but how can I go there as if nothing had happened and face the humans and all the living beings? "It was me who caused them to lose the most important thing." Ding Xiangyuan's expression darkened.
"You'll have to face all of this eventually," Ding Yiqing said gently. If you keep hiding in your guilt, you'll never be able to truly protect them. Let's go. Perhaps, you'll find something after taking a trip to the Living Spirit World.”
Ding Xiang Yuan looked at her and said,"Have you ever blamed me?" Have you ever blamed me?"
Ding Yiqing maintained his smile and said,""No, because you are the Realm Guardian, no matter what you do, we will forgive you.”
"If I wasn't the Realm Guardian, wouldn't you forgive me?”Ding Xiangyuan said slowly.
Ding Yiqing thought for a moment and said," I don't know what others think, but no matter what you decide to do, no matter what you've done, to me, this represents the most authentic you. And that's the kind of you I want to see." I think that what is happening now is just a form of training for you. The price you have to pay is for you to mature and cherish everything you have. In the future, when you face more difficult situations, you won't be so painful and hesitant.”
"Is that so? Are you saying that the harm these people have suffered is the price they have to pay for me to do better in the future?”Ding Xiangyuan said in a low voice.
"No, what I mean is that no matter how painful you are, the truth is the truth. It can't be changed. What you can do now is to do more for them. Your duty is to protect them better, not to indulge in guilt after making a mistake. If you do this now, it will only make their harm meaningless.”
Ding Yiqing stopped talking and waited for Ding Xiangyuan to come out of the dead end. As long as she could figure this out, she would be considered to have passed this test.
After a long time, Ding Xiangyuan stood up and said,""Let's go and take a look at the Spiritual World.”Although she still looked lonely, as long as she was willing to change, it was a kind of progress in itself. Ding Yiqing smiled and held her outstretched hand.
A week's time could not make people forget the pain, but at least they could recover their lives. Ding Xiang Yuan walked on the street that she had stepped on countless times. The shops were all open. Although the doors were cold and the people walking on the street seemed to still have a huge shadow of this disaster, Ding Xiang Yuan could feel the small hope in their hearts. Everything would get better. Although the people who had passed away could not come back, the people who were still alive should continue to live with them, better than before. This hope made their eyes firm and full of brilliance. Ding Xiang Yuan was influenced by them and his mood improved a little.
" Why don't we go and buy something?" Ding Yiqing suddenly said." We can go shopping like normal humans and eat something."”
Ding Xiangyuan smiled and said,"Oh, you've never done this before." Alright, let's go to the biggest mall. Don't look at me like this. I still have some money.”She was stunned for a moment. Although she had saved up some money and had a sum of compensation when her parents passed away, she did not expect to return to the Void Zone. She had wanted to donate the money, but many things had happened and she had no time to do so. Therefore, she left the bank card in the house and did not bring it out.
Ding Yiqing took out a wallet from behind his back as if he was performing a magic trick. Ding Xiangyuan was surprised and happy. This was her favorite wallet. "I've already made preparations," said Ding Yiqing with a smile. Speaking of which, we don't need much anyway. We don't need to buy anything too expensive. Didn't you always want to donate the money inside to the Hope Primary School to build a library? We'll go after we're done shopping."
Ding Xiangyuan nodded and brought Ding Yiqing to a nearby shopping mall. The two of them walked around casually. Ding Xiangyuan explained the pros and cons of each cosmetic and skincare product to her. After all, she had worked in a cosmetics company before. Ding Yiqing joked,""These all seem very useful, but they can't compare to our methods.”
Ding Xiangyuan was stunned. He knew that she was referring to the fact that both of them had such powerful strength. It was very easy for them to make themselves beautiful. He couldn't help but laugh."Then why don't the two of us open a beauty salon? It doesn't cost anything, and the effect is better than anything else. We can definitely make a lot of money.”
Ding Yiqing also laughed and said,"Let's go and look at the clothes." Speaking of which, I haven't really worn human clothes yet!”
Ding Xiangyuan looked at her white dress and teased,""I see that you only wear one piece every day. Have you not changed since you chose to take on your human form?”
Ding Yiqing thought for a moment and smiled. It's common for it to not change for hundreds of years."
Ding Xiang Yuan sighed,"Sister, your life is too monotonous." Today, I will help you pick out a few sets of clothes so that you can appear beautiful in front of everyone.”
"Yes, sister."
