Chapter 324 Silence
Chapter 324 Silence
[Human World, Xuyan Sea, Longbei Palace]
On their second day in the human world, Yue Yuanming and Shui Qingli didn't leave Longbei Palace. They spent another night together in Shui Qingli's bedroom.
Yue Yuanming was not unfamiliar with this bedchamber, after all, he would come here every few days during the time Shui Qingli was in a coma.
Even the ability to set up barriers was mastered around that time.
Who would have thought that it would be used again now?
On the spacious bed, two fairies dressed in pajamas embraced each other. Yue Yuanming looked at Shui Qingli, who was so close to him, and felt a little calmer.
Shui Qingli seemed to have this ability to calm his innate violent heart at any time, whether it was their first meeting at the bottom of the lake millions of years ago or their current embrace in sleep.
Shui Qingli appeared to be resting with her eyes closed in Yue Yuanming's arms, exhausted, but she had already begun a conversation with Qianqian in her mind.
"Qianqian?" Shui Qingli called out.
"I'm here." Qianqian replied after several seconds, which surprised Shui Qingli.
However, Shui Qingli didn't care about this issue. He had a lot to worry about this time in the human world.
"What should we do about the human world?" Shui Qingli couldn't think of a compromise: "We can't just destroy human civilization like Mutian Pavilion has done in the past, can we?"
"The problem is that, given the current connection between the Fairy Realm and the human world, if the human world is destroyed, the fairies in the Fairy Realm will all be caught in the crossfire."
[Actually, the key to this problem lies with you.] I don't know when it started, but Qianqian has a habit of saying things that are hard to understand.
"On me?" Shui Qingli was slightly taken aback.
"You are the one who determines the destiny of this world, and naturally you decide its course." Qianqian's answer remained irrelevant.
Or perhaps the answer is somewhat related to the question?
Shui Qingli was completely baffled: "What do you mean?"
"In other words, you are the one who... decides... your will..." Qianqian suddenly uttered a murmured sentence.
Then, as if realizing something, she could only say helplessly, "I'm sorry, there are some things I can't say. I can only tell you to do what you think is best."
"Qianqian, what's interfering with your end?" Shui Qingli guessed.
"I'm sorry, I can't say." Qianqian's voice was somewhat downcast.
"I understand. I'll figure out the rest."
Shui Qingli didn't know why Qianqian suddenly couldn't tell him about this; he guessed that Qianqian must also be under some kind of constraint.
"Qingli?" Yue Yuanming noticed that Shui Qingli hadn't actually fallen asleep, so he called out to him softly.
"What's wrong?" Shui Qingli opened her eyes and saw Yue Yuanming, which made her feel at ease and caught her off guard.
"what are you thinking about?"
"Isn't it all because of the worries about the human world?" Shui Qingli said helplessly. "Sometimes I really wish we could just destroy everything like before, it would be so much easier."
There are just too many things to consider now.
"Even if it means destruction, let me handle it." Yue Yuanming still hasn't forgotten about Atlantis—it's almost become a knot in his heart.
"It's a pity, I don't have any good solutions either." Shui Qingli frowned slightly.
"More importantly, I haven't asked you yet, who was that child's voice when you first returned to Mutian Pavilion?" Yue Yuanming suddenly thought of Qianqian, who had suddenly spoken at that time.
"Can you tell Yuanming?" Shui Qingli paused for a moment, then asked Qianqian in her mind.
"No, you can't." As expected, Qianqian refused: "When I first returned to Mutian Pavilion, I already broke the rules by helping you."
Even though I'm a system, I still have to follow the system's rules.
What Qianqian didn't say was that, thankfully, this incident hadn't happened yet at that time, otherwise she would have been nagged for days.
"I understand." Shui Qingli knew Qianqian's difficulties and didn't make things difficult for her. She could only tell Yue Yuanming the truth: "It's not the time to tell you now."
Little did Shui Qingli know that he had no chance at all.
“…Okay.” Yue Yuanming understood; it wasn’t time to tell him Shui Qingli’s secret yet.
But he desperately wanted to know what had happened to Shui Qingli that made him feel as if his emotional memories had been severed several times, and that made Shui Qingli, who had never liked scheming, become so resourceful.
Shui Qingli had no idea what Yue Yuanming was thinking, otherwise he would definitely have said: "Because I am a reborn person, I can predict the future."
But can seeing the future direction guarantee a change in the outcome?
At least Princess Shiki of Time said no.
