After all, she's a villain, always wanting to trigger a desperate struggle at the end.
And that sentence was:
"Kid, you're also just a pawn... hahaha..."
Wang Mu sneered at those words.
A pawn is a pawn; as long as I can eliminate it, that's fine.
Thinking back at this moment...
In the scene, Wang Mu stared closely at the two.
"Don't want to leave, huh?"
Sky Demon Emperor Chen was stained with blood all over, being barely alive, she was not in a good state, but her gaze was indifferent, instead looking amused at the one beside her.
"Seven cycles of reincarnation, you are just one step away from transcending this realm."
"Now, yet you don't want to leave?"
"Hahaha... Ice Sui Style, Ice Immortal, Heavenly Sea Saint, Demon Emperor Lian Zu, White Fox Immortal Guest... wouldn't you truly care about a promise to a pawn?"
Sky Demon Emperor Chen burst into laughter, "Unfortunately, fate is dead, a new era has dawned, he can't return."
"Who can bear the overwhelming karma to open the portals between worlds?"
"You've been plotting for years, isn't it all for this moment, waiting for fate to open the inter-world gate, becoming that one Immortal Ancestor, and rebuilding a glorious world? We have been opponents for years, and yet you are hesitating now..."
"Why don't you go on?"
...
The white-haired woman remained silent, perhaps finding the other somewhat noisy, she gently waved her hand and absorbed the latter into her palm.
"..." Wang Mu.
In the scene.
"Seal?"
"Even a seal is useless, you can still hear my voice, can't you?"
"Reluctant to kill me?"
"Are you thinking about my secret technique among the heavenly demons? Hahaha... Ice Immortal, you finally let me guess your thoughts!"
Secret technique?
What secret technique?
Wang Mu frowned slightly, vaguely guessing a possibility.
"Unfortunately, if this is the case, you can't become an Immortal Ancestor, can't re-establish the Immortal Court, with no rules set, the portals will eventually close. It's all just back at the starting point, haha... interesting, truly interesting."
"Reincarnation, this is reincarnation..."
After a long time, the white-haired woman still made no movement.
She gently opened the void, walked into the Immortal Mansion.
Threw the figure in her palm into the Ice Prison.
"I'm waiting, Ice Immortal, I'm waiting for you to come to find me again." Sky Demon Emperor Chen said leisurely, "I wonder how long you can persist?"
Wang Mu also watched.
The white-haired woman returned to the Nine Provinces, gazing at the slowly changing vast land, she started to wander around.
This scene, Wang Mu knew somewhat about.
She met Nanrong Biyou, Heroine Yan, and others.
Of course, sometimes she disguised her identity, like when meeting Mo Xilan, she provided an elixir recipe at a crucial moment, allowing Mo Xilan to comprehend the Seven Emotions Refining Technique...
Wang Mu also witnessed in Mo Xilan's experiences that at a critical moment a mysterious person provided her with an elixir recipe.
That elixir recipe was precisely the Heavenly Heart Protecting God Pill's recipe.
However, to Wang Mu's surprise, An Qixiu in this process, the first person she went to find wasn't Nanrong Biyou.
But rather... Xiao Li!
"Wait, she also went to find Xiao Li..."
Wang Mu focused intently.
Mr. Tian, this identity, reasonably An Qixiu shouldn't know.
But if An Qixiu had been observing secretly throughout the game, then utilizing the time difference in the game to switch identities to help Xiao Li in Great Wilderness City, maybe... she might be aware?
Yet, not necessarily.
"Could it be... Xiao Li's whole dynasty ascending is related to her?"
Thinking of this, Wang Mu took a small breath.
From the prior conversation between Sky Demon Emperor Chen and An Qixiu, Wang Mu guessed some details.
Combined with previous dialogues with the Moon God, learning some situations in the Upper Realm, he guessed roughly that the Upper Realm was gone, as for how it came to be, he didn't know.
The Immortal Court vanished, rules shattered, bringing endless disasters to the Lower Realm.
The heavenly demons are among them.
Later, the most crucial part of the Heavenly River overturning is likely a symbol of the Immortal Court's disappearance.
Because the Moon God mentioned that the Upper Realm also has a Heavenly River, and the Immortal Cloud Kun was once nurtured in the Heavenly River.
No rules established.
Without the Immortal Court, the Lower Realm suffers, the portals between worlds close, there's no spiritual energy, and cultivation ceased.
Having endured several cycles of reincarnation, An Qixiu knows this.
She is the only Immortal who survived the Heavenly River overturning.
What she wants is to return to the Upper Realm, re-establish the Immortal Court, set rules, guiding this world back on the right path.
Otherwise, calamity and hardship will persist endlessly.
The first step to re-establish the Immortal Court, and also the most critical step, is to open the Gate of Apocalypse, the inter-world portals...
But, opening the process, requires sacrifice.
At that time, the Immortal Court shattered, the heavenly order collapsed, there was no talk of merits, instead, the Gate of Apocalypse bore unknown amounts of karma...
"That door..."
"Meaning, after I open the Gate of Apocalypse... uh... I'm probably truly dead?"
With heavenly order collapsed, no Immortal Court, my death likely means no reincarnation to the next life...
There is only one An Qixiu, only she can endure reincarnation.
This Immortal Mansion, only she possesses.
So, when a normal person dies, they just die.
The game indeed ends.
But...
Wang Mu watched closely...
In the scene.
An Qixiu went to the Li Dynasty, meeting Xiao Li, who had already become the Empress of Li Dynasty at that time.
The reason used was simple...
"I was entrusted by Mr. Tian to come here to see Imperial Princess Xiao Li."
With this simple reason, she directly and unobstructedly reached the palace great hall.
