Reborn Awakening (GL)
Chapter 36
Without an answer, she told herself that she didn't love her anymore.
Nothing is eternal, everything that I once cared about has long since ceased to exist, and what remains is only the void in my heart that can no longer be filled.
On the second day, on the Infinity Cliff, the phoenix hovered over the tree of life, waiting for the person who saw them off in the past 500 years.
Every 500 years, the elves will always hold a huge farewell fire ceremony for the phoenix. This is the agreement between the elves ancestors and the phoenix, and it has not changed for thousands of years.
Only this time, the fate of waiting for the phoenix has changed.
Standing beside Qianye Liusha, Jiang Zheng stared blankly at the pair of brothers and sisters who were about to be sacrificed in the air. They were really beautiful, and reminded her of a legend called Phoenix in the world she knew well.
Suddenly, she was very resistant to standing here, just like she dared not look at Qianye Liusha's expression at this moment.
She was afraid of seeing even a trace of uncontrollable pain in Qianye Liusha's eyes, and even more afraid of seeing that almost indifferent determination.
Qianye Liusha said, even in 2000, can we do worse than before?
Yes, so much time has been wasted in 2000. After things have changed, how can the past be so precious?This time Qianye Quicksand will only do better and more decisively than last time.In this way, everything she has worked hard for for 2000 years, and all the pain and suffering she has endured through gritting her teeth.
Seeing that the elf priest had erected an enchantment, Jiang Zheng recited the farewell prayer.
Under the tree of life, the patriarchs, elders, and spiritual girls of the three major families all looked dignified. They sang softly the songs that belonged to this sacrifice, but they had already prepared the sharpest arrows and the most powerful spells.
The phoenix is about to start mating, and at that time, this pair of powerful siblings will be at their weakest.
Qianye Liusha raised her eyes to look at Phoenix, but chose to lower her head to escape when she looked back. From the beginning to the end, she didn't meet her eyes.
After the prayer was over, the old priest dug his fingers into the soil, and suddenly vines broke through the ground, stretched towards the phoenix, and finally entwined them tightly.
The sudden flames went up the vines, quickly engulfing the phoenix.
Jiang Zheng clenched his fists subconsciously, only to hear the old priest sigh heavily, the elf shooters put their arrows on their bows one after another, and the mage began to chant in a low voice.
Anka sensed something was wrong at this moment, broke free from the vines, pushed Phoenix away with all his strength, spread his huge wings, and stopped all attacks.
The pain from the fire all over his body, coupled with the serious injury at that moment, caused him to fall downwards.
Under the tree of life, several vines suddenly grew, piercing his body burned by the flames.
The flame was extinguished by the spell, and the vines greedily sucked his blood, and then sent it to the roots of the tree of life.
The wailing of the phoenix was like a knife, piercing into the hearts of every elf, as if rebuking them for their betrayal and selfishness.
Phoenix went crazy and started attacking the surrounding elves.
She possessed incomparably powerful strength, so she missed the first chance to sneak attack, and the spells and arrows of the elves could no longer hurt her in the slightest.
She leaned over and rushed to her brother, but saw a familiar figure standing between her and Anka, staring at her with extremely indifferent eyes.
A flash of astonishment flashed in Phoenix's eyes, Qianye Liusha did not hesitate for a moment, and stabbed the dagger in her heart hard.
"I'm sorry, only you have what I need." She said, with a little force on her wrist, the dagger in her hand cut Phoenix's heart open.
Countless blood was evaporated by the fire the moment it gushed out of the phoenix's body, and only one drop condensed into a blood stone and fell into Qianye Liusha's hands.
The flames on the phoenix's body gradually extinguished, and the golden wings withered away like grass and trees.
"Who are you..." At that moment, Phoenix's voice was hoarse and exhausted, and there seemed to be tears in the corners of his eyes.
"Qianye Liusha." Qianye Liusha raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and looked at the blood stone in his hand with appreciation.
"You're not... I know her..."
"Oh?" Qianye Liusha pulled out the dagger and said with a smile, "You have discovered this, but you are still very stupid, just because I have the same face as her, you missed the shot to kill me and save your brother Best chance."
The words were obviously cold-blooded and heartless, but made Phoenix laugh almost insanely.
very nice.
At least, even if she had to be sacrificed, the person who killed her in the end was not Quicksand...
Qianye Liusha turned and left without looking back under the surprised eyes of countless elves. Jiang Zheng quickly chased after her, with thousands of words, but they were stuck in their hearts and didn't know what to say.
When there was no one around anymore, Qianye Liusha suddenly knelt down with her knees hugged. From silence, to depression, finally, she burst into tears.
2000 years ago, I was the one who killed you.
After 2000, the one who kills you is still me.
Even if you no longer recognize my current appearance, I cannot escape this sin.
Because in this choice, I am a stubborn stone, hurt you deeply, and have never been innocent.
***
Jiang Zheng didn't dare to imagine what kind of pain Qianye Liusha was enduring, maybe she would not be able to understand a ten-millionth part of it in her whole life.
After all, in the original world, she was just a person who would suddenly be wronged and cry bitterly because of a trivial matter.
If she could, she wished she hadn't witnessed all of this with her own eyes, so that the stories of righteousness in the world, life and death choices, and sacrifice of loved ones would always be just stories that others said lightly.
On the way back, the surrounding scenery changed.
The original choice has changed, and the memory of the past 2000 years has undergone considerable changes on the way back.
These changes flooded into her mind in a very short time, and started a crazy dispute with her past memories, making every step she took now extremely difficult.
Even so, her steps were as firm as when she came here, no matter what she saw, she never stopped for a moment.
She was always smiling, but there were two lines of tears on her cheeks.
In this life, even the last hatred left to her by Phoenix no longer exists. Apart from responsibility, she has absolutely nothing left, and finally she will never lose it again.
She couldn't tell if it was good or bad, or maybe it was another punishment Phoenix left her.
In any case, she can only move forward.
It wasn't until she finally returned to the original world that she felt relieved, closed her tired eyes, and fell into a deep sleep.
Jiang Zheng saw that Changsheng and Baozi's eyes were full of worry, forced a smile, shook his head, and said, "I'm fine."
She told herself—after all, you are just a spectator.
Chang Sheng was silent for a long time, then stepped forward and said, "You said you're fine, but I saw that's not the case."
Jiang Zheng was a little surprised by Chang Sheng's reaction. Chang Sheng was never a person who likes to get to the bottom of things, but at this moment, the almost fiery gaze in Chang Sheng's eyes made her unable to escape.
"What’s wrong with you……"
Chang Sheng bit his lower lip tightly and remained silent for a long time, with tears in his eyes: "During your absence, I'm afraid you will never come back."
Chapter 28 Confession
Jiang Zheng couldn't laugh or cry at Chang Sheng's words.
She always thought that Changsheng was mature enough and strong enough. Many times, she even felt that this little girl who looked immature was much stronger than her except for the lack of a snack machine, and it was impossible for her to cry about some trivial things.
But now, Chang Sheng is standing in front of her, making no secret of his fragility.
Such fragility stemmed from worrying about her, so that she didn't know how to comfort her at all, so she just smiled and pretended to be meaningless: "What nonsense, how could I not come back? The promise the priest promised me has not been fulfilled , I will not be so cheap to her."
Chang Sheng gritted his teeth and said, "I know, but I'm still afraid."
In fact, Jiang Zheng didn't leave for too long, but from the moment she disappeared in front of Chang Sheng, Chang Sheng found that his heart was extremely tormented, and every minute and every second felt like sitting on pins and needles.
Qianye Liusha only said that she wanted to go back to 2000 years ago to get the blood of the phoenix. No one knew what she was going to do, let alone what consequences would result from doing so.
Whether such a consequence will cause Jiang Zheng and her to never come back, no one can tell.
If an accident happened to Qianye Liusha, whose strength would Jiang Zheng rely on to return to the present world?
Changsheng knew very well that Jiang Zheng never belonged to this world, her arrival was an accident that no one could explain, and if she left suddenly one day, no one would be able to keep her back.
After all, it was an accident that even she could not control. From her usual words, it is not difficult to find that she misses her hometown very much. If she had the choice, she would not have come to this world at all.
Because of this, Changsheng has never expected to keep Jiang Zheng by his side forever. He only wants to help her become a person again one day, and stand in front of her alive, so that she no longer needs to be in front of others. To cover up his gaze at Jiang Zheng, to bear the desire to talk to her...
Nothing is eternal, everything that I once cared about has long since ceased to exist, and what remains is only the void in my heart that can no longer be filled.
