Chapter 122 Has my wife seen through the illusions of the world?!
At that time, Yun Zhao's parents and relatives had already passed away due to the matter of the Extinction Qi. Yun Zhao secluded himself on Qingyun Peak and refused to see anyone. It was not until a year later that he reappeared in front of everyone.
However, when she reappeared, Yun Zhao's personality had changed drastically. She became spoiled and domineering. The people of Qingyun Sect only thought that she was too sad because she had lost her loved ones, and no one suspected that she had become a different person.
No, there was. At the time, Han Yue and Lu Mingdao suspected that a wandering ghost might have possessed Yun Zhao, but after verifying it using many methods, they found no trace of possession.
Only the system knew that Yun Zhao's body had been replaced by a different soul. However, because it had exhausted all its energy in helping Yun Zhao reincarnate, it could only watch helplessly as that person took over Yun Zhao's body.
Fortunately, a few years later, the system accumulated some energy and went to the modern world to find Yun Zhao's other half of his soul.
Yun Zhao raised a question, "Didn't you say that the host you were going to bind to was someone else? Also, you could have just told me that you were going to take me 'home,' why did you make me seduce Qi Yan?"
"Also, since this world isn't the world in the book, what were those plots I was seeing?"
The system chuckled awkwardly, "Host, this is actually the real world. I was originally a system that was going to be destroyed because of a failed mission. You saved me in my past life, so I cut off my connection with the main system and stayed by your side."
"Later, in order to obtain energy, I contacted the main system. The main system agreed to give me energy and send me to see you. However, due to the rules, I cannot tell you the reason. I can only bring you here under the pretense of doing a task."
Yun Zhao's focus shifted, "Your main system is that good?"
The system curled its lip, a look of disdain on its face, but Yun Zhao couldn't see it.
It explained, "Because you used the Lingxu Palace's formation to protect countless living beings ten thousand years ago, you have accumulated great merit, which is why the main system agreed to help me this once."
After saying that, the system asked expectantly, "Host, after all I've said, have you remembered anything?"
Yun Zhao frowned and thought for a moment, then honestly replied, "No."
system:"……"
It wanted to say something more, but out of the corner of its eye it saw that the Spirit of Extinction was about to shatter, so it waved its hand and said, "Never mind, host, you should go and comfort the Spirit of Extinction first. I think it's about to shatter."
Yun Zhao then noticed that the Spirit of Extinction had left her palm, clutching a gem on the gate, its entire body shattered.
Hanmu Jiao stood beside it with a blank face, his expression filled with frustration.
I know you're sad, but please leave my little darling, okay?
It finally managed to pry out a small piece of black inkstone, only to have it seized by the Spirit of Extinction.
“Zhao Zhao,” Qi Yan asked in a low voice as he saw Yun Zhao looking at the Spirit of Extinction, “What do you think of the Spirit of Extinction…”
Yun Zhao did not answer his question, but only glanced at him. That glance contained too many emotions, which made Qi Yan subconsciously stand up straight, as if he were being examined by Yun Zhao.
"Zhaozhao, what's wrong..."
Qi Yan swallowed hard. What did that look mean?
Is there something on his face? Or is it his hairstyle? Or maybe I just don't like his clothes...?
"It's nothing," Yun Zhao said with a world-weary expression, "I just learned some things and figured some things out."
Qi Yan looked completely bewildered. "W-what's wrong?"
Yun Zhao thought for a moment and said seriously, "The Buddha said, it cannot be spoken."
Qi Yan: "..."
His head was buzzing, and he had only one thought in his mind.
Good heavens! Is the wife he finally found going to renounce the world and become a Buddhist nun?
Yun Zhao had no idea that her casual remark had caused Qi Yan's world to collapse. She took two steps forward and stood in front of the Spirit of Extinction.
The spirit of extinction knew she was approaching, stopped its sighing, and pretended to be dead.
It... was hesitant to face Yun Zhao's answer.
Senior sister, how will you answer it? Will you resent it, or...?
A soft hand gently stroked its head, and a gentle voice whispered in its ear, "It's not your fault, why should I blame you?"
The Spirit of Extinction froze, in disbelief. It quickly looked up at Yun Zhao and saw her smiling face before it accepted the fact.
My senior sister actually... didn't blame it!
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah! ! !
The Spirit of Extinction could not contain its excitement and wanted to tell the whole world that its senior sister did not blame it!
After glancing at Yun Zhao, the Spirit of Extinction shyly rubbed against him until it nestled into Yun Zhao's outstretched palm.
Yun Zhao and the Spirit of Extinction were as close as ever. The Cold Wood Dragon hugged its little baby again. Seeing that they had made up, the Green-Eyed Fox thought that if it found the Demon-Transforming Grass, it could go and rescue its cub... Everyone was happy.
Apart from Qi Yan, who is still struggling with whether his wife has any intention of becoming a nun.
Qi Yan hesitated for a long time, wanting to ask Yun Zhao what he meant, but Yun Zhao was possessed by the Spirit of Extinction and the Cold Wood Dragon.
One chattered away to her, while the other acted coquettishly and begged Yun Zhao to help him carve the black inkstone... Qi Yan tragically discovered that he couldn't get a word in edgewise!
So, so angry!
“Oh, right,” Yun Zhao suddenly remembered something, “Little Tong, no, I should call you…”
The Spirit of Extinction said, "Senior Sister, Xiao Tong is my name when I was in the Tong family in Demon-Slaying City. You can call me A Ling. This is the first time you have given me this name through the barrier in Lingxu Palace."
"Oh? We met back then?"
Yun Zhao has no memory, but according to Qi Yan, how could she have been related to the Spirit of Extinction back then?
“No,” the Spirit of Extinction explained, “You thought I was spreading the aura of extinction, so you talked to me through the barrier, trying to get me to move to another place.”
Yun Zhao: "..."
Uh, her past life was so outrageous.
Getting back to the main story, Yun Zhao remembered that the Spirit of Extinction had said that it was originally dormant, but was awakened by the sacrifice of tens of thousands of lives.
"Ah Ling, do you know who that person is?"
The Spirit of Extinction shook its head, then nodded, and hesitated, saying, "I have a suspect, but I'm not sure if it's him."
"Who?"
The Spirit of Extinction slowly said, "The head of the Song family, Song Qinghua."
Yun Zhao was taken aback. How did this get involved with him?
The Spirit of Extinction continued, "When I went to Demon-Slaying City last time, I felt his aura was very familiar, somewhat like the person who awakened me, but I wasn't quite sure."
It plans to return to its original form and replace Yun Zhao's grandfather, Yun Yi, in guarding the Qi of Extinction. It asks Yun Yi to help it investigate.
But Yunyi was gone, and its plan fell through.
By the way, speaking of which, it seems it hasn't told Yun Zhao that her grandfather is still alive.
The Spirit of Extinction is conflicted again. Yun Yi's whereabouts are unknown, and his fate is also uncertain. Should he tell Yun Zhao or not?
What if Yun Yi is already...? Wouldn't that just leave Yun Zhao disappointed and only cause him more grief?
The Spirit of Extinction discovered that the struggle it had been going through these past few days was more than it had in the previous ten thousand years!
