Chapter 30: Bai Lian, My Natural Saint, My Light! (1)
For people, including Bai Lian, this is definitely an unimaginable outcome!
At first, Bai Lian came to Nanwang to help the Third Younger Martial Sister with collecting fragments of the Ten Thousand Poison Pearl. Even after uncovering Tao Hui’s plot, she only wanted to eliminate Tao Hui from the sidelines, in an attempt to prevent Nanwang City’s fated destruction into ruins buried under yellow sand.
She never even considered changing the status quo of the whole Sand Region. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to help; she knew she couldn’t. She is merely a cultivator at the Nascent Soul Stage. How could she have the ability to undo the actions of the Immortal who once controlled the Ten Thousand Poison Pearl?
However, an accident occurred. Due to the emperor’s actions, the long drought ruling the land was broken by many sweet flowing springs. What came with the springs was happiness—a long-lost happiness, the most primitive and simple kind.
What are you doing? Enjoy!
Therefore, the people of Nanwang Country standing around the riverway began to dance. They clapped their hands excitedly. They bumped their hips with joy. They buried their heads deep in the surging tide. The smiles on their faces were more charming than the swaying flowers of the oasis.
What an exciting scene! Even Ling Yue, who was full of gloom in her heart, smiled.
Nanwang Country didn’t immediately turn into fertile land, but with the great river across the Sand Region, soon Nanwang Country would be covered by beautiful greenery, and other nearby countries would benefit from it. There would be many challenges, but Ling Yue believed that as long as they had hope, they could keep moving forward!
The current perception of Bai Lian was overwhelming—
“It was sudden!” A man beside the tree squatted on the ground and wrote Bai Lian’s name repeatedly.
An old lady nearby clasped her hands together and murmured that Bai Lian was a star descending from the sky.
Children held hands together and shouted “Bai Lian, Bai Lian!”
Two people were laughing wildly on a stone heap.
A stonemason raised his hands and praised Bai Lian, saying he would build a stone sculpture for her.
Human beings have different joys and sorrows. Bai Lian just wanted to cry.
No! This should not be the case.
Emotionally, she had no objection to the emperor’s transformation of Nanwang, because it was something that helped the present and benefited the future. But before doing this, couldn’t he have given a speech to all the citizens of Nanwang Country to let them know who the real hero was?
The people’s praises made Bai Lian panic. She could already foresee the difficulties she would face next.
People who liked her—
“Bai Lian, Bai Lian, when will you become a real Star Lord?”
“Go away!”
People who hated her—
“This woman is so terrible. We must kill her before she grows up!”
“Go away!”
Bai Lian felt that she should scold the emperor. Look at the terrible things he had done to her!
Damn! Due to all the sand in the wind, Bai Lian reached out to wipe her eyes.
This movement attracted Ling Yue’s attention. The girl was shocked.
Bai Lian cried?
She didn’t think Bai Lian cried because she was sad, so there was only one possibility: seeing the changes in Nanwang, Bai Lian cried with joy!
Ling Yue was deeply moved. Compared to her, Bai Lian seemed more like the queen of Nanwang Country.
“Bai Lian, you…”
“There was sand in my eyes,” Bai Lian explained.
Ling Yue didn’t believe it. Sand in her eyes? Come on, this excuse was much too outdated.
Ling Yue suddenly jumped into Bai Lian’s arms. She came suddenly and forcefully, almost knocking Bai Lian over.
What the hell? Bai Lian was stunned; she didn’t know where to put her hands to preserve propriety.
Although Ling Yue and Su Youwei were both white-haired, Ling Yue looked more mature. She twisted a little in Bai Lian’s arms, and four “squashed balls” began to tumble around.
Crap! Bai Lian saw new task options.
Task 1 was to study the “friction” between girls with Ling Yue on the emperor’s chariot. The reward was a secret medicine [Windless Mirror on the Pool].
This was not an ordinary secret medicine! Bai Lian was shocked after reading the rating given by the system.
“Is this worth an inferior Spirit Tool?”
Wouldn’t it mean that if she let a cultivator at the Soul Changing Stage eat it, the cultivator would also become a slave of desire?
I don’t dare to choose it. Pass.
Bai Lian resolutely chose Task 2, Soft Skill+1. Just hug her.
After a long time, Ling Yue suddenly apologized, “I’m sorry.”
“Sorry?” Bai Lian was a little surprised.
Ling Yue whispered, “Didn’t you say when you brought me out of the nightmare that if you proved you were right, I should apologize?”
Bai Lian nodded. She remembered saying something like that, but she had forgotten all about it.
Forget it. This kind of thing isn’t important. The important thing is to dispel the rumors as soon as possible.
Bai Lian said, “The deeds of a hero should not be forgotten. When you return to Nanwang City, tell everyone the one deserving praise is your ancestor. He was the one who brought peace to Nanwang City, and the one who made Nanwang Country green…”
“No!”
Ling Yue suddenly interrupted Bai Lian.
Bai Lian, “?”
The memories of being with Bai Lian flashed through Ling Yue’s mind.
Before meeting Bai Lian, it was as if she had been walking in a dark desert. There was no sun in her sky; it was always night, and the only light was the moon dyed blood red.
But then Bai Lian appeared.
Bai Lian arrived in Nanwang with the tenderness of a Natural Saint. She could have ignored the crisis that Nanwang was facing, just like other cultivators, but she reached out her hand.
Ling Yue clearly remembered every detail of what happened after Bai Lian broke into her desert. Bai Lian was tough but also very considerate. After her fear and fierce resistance, she unconsciously accepted Bai Lian.
Why? It was because of Bai Lian’s eyes—a pair of clear eyes that should not have appeared in that bloody desert.
Ling Yue was fascinated. Being watched by this pair of eyes, she felt warm.
She wanted it! If they were her eyes, the world she saw would be full of green.
So she followed Bai Lian in ignorance. It was also proved that she was right.
Where Bai Lian went, hope followed. When Bai Lian came, Nanwang City would be peaceful.
Ling Yue stared at Bai Lian, and her voice became more and more firm as she said, “It is you who stopped Tao Hui’s conspiracy, saved the ancestor who was controlled by Tao Hui, and made the impossible possible. Without you, there would be no Nanwang Country. You are the real hero, and your deeds cannot be forgotten!”
“…”
“I think everyone in Nanwang thinks so,” Ling Yue added.
Bai Lian wanted to cry even more.
Please forgive me! I really don’t want to be a Natural Saint, and I’m not a reincarnation of any Star Lord. My biggest dream is to live peacefully with my Shifu and Martial Sisters.
Why is this dream so hard to realize?
Bai Lian stopped talking.
Ling Yue felt that she had successfully persuaded Bai Lian. She hugged Bai Lian’s waist tightly and then shouted in a very excited voice:
“Tomorrow will be better!”
“Better!”
“Great!”
The voice drifted out.
At this time, the emperor’s chariot was on its way back to Nanwang City after the last inspection.
The sun rose early. The sun shone far and wide.
A new day had officially started.
Not long after, the chariot finally returned to Nanwang City.
