Chapter 421: Frost recovery and electricity collection
Xue Miyin shook his head, and the hand holding the dagger relaxed a little. If it were in the past, Lord Shuangyue would have accurately captured this detail and completed the counterattack in an instant. This was Miyin's fatal weakness, and it still remains to this day.
Never changed.
Or is it that Miyin doesn’t want to change?
But Shuangyue-kun didn't do that...she didn't.
She just sat here quietly, leaning back slightly, with one hand on the ground behind her side, holding the umbrella, and the other hand just by her side, indifferent.
"Don't think that I will be swayed by saying these words - you are not going to die anyway. This is not even a punishment for you!"
Her voice was clearly trembling.
"You are shaken," she said, "because I didn't lie. If you stab me like this, I will die. You should be very clear, or at least be able to predict some consequences... The two tongues must have passed you by long ago.
I was angry. Of course, maybe she might not be able to bet on this outcome, and maybe I haven’t thought about it... In short, whether you choose to believe it at the moment it happens is entirely up to you."
"I don't understand what you're talking about!"
"I am no longer the Six Paths Impermanence... I was deprived of my identity as the underworld because I got my name back."
Xue Miyin was completely stunned.
She knew very well that "Shuoyue Jun" was by no means a person who loved to make up stories. Such a wonderful, dramatic, and unexpected plot, Shuangyue Jun must not be able to come up with it. Why did she say this? To delay time? Impossible
, she is just sitting here. As long as Miyin is willing, she can kill her at any time and put an end to the hatred for many years. She might really die!
...Is she really going to die?
At that moment, Xue Miyin had to force herself to admit one thing.
She dared to do whatever she wanted, dared to be so unscrupulous, maybe completely or at least to a large extent, because she knew very well: no matter what, Lord Shuangyue would not die.
But she actually found her name.
The twelve months of the underworld are people who have been deprived of their names. From ancient times to the present, no one has really recovered their names. Their names will cause trouble, so among the people it is better to erase them. The Yama demon may be the only one who knows their names.
Or maybe not. Sometimes, in order to pursue complete confidentiality, even the secret keeper chooses to forget things he once remembered.
Or should I say... If Yama had remembered their names, he would have taken action the moment the woman was about to speak.
But no.
"Shuang Yuejun" opened his mouth slightly and said four big words without anyone stopping him.
"Liangqiu Muwan." She said, "I am Liangqiu Muwan."
For a moment, the whole world was quiet. This was unquestionable and absolutely happened. Everyone in the world, down to every blade of grass, clearly felt the stasis of time.
But no one really talks about the reason for it - because it was so short.
For some reason, Xue Miyin completely believed what she said.
There is also no doubt that she will die if she is struck by a dagger. She will die of massive blood loss, and may even lose consciousness from the pain before that.
She will die a terrible death, and it will be her last death.
Xue Miyin's hands were shaking.
She flinched? Why? Hadn't she been looking forward to this day? She and her friends had been planning for a long time, weren't they just waiting for this scene to come? Or, this was not the result she wanted to see.
But... her friend? No, no, no, that's not the case, she will never admit it - everything to this day is her own decision!
She gritted her teeth and gripped the dagger tighter. To her surprise, the calmness and calmness she had felt just now completely disappeared, but appeared on the face of the woman in front of her - this woman named Liang Qiu Muwan.
"It's such a good name, but it's a pity that it won't be of much use in the future."
"You hesitated." Mu Wan said, "As long as I am still breathing in the world, it is my victory for one more moment. Since you hesitate, it is my victory. So as a winner... I hope you listen to me
Let me tell you something more. Anyway, for you holding the butcher knife, you already have so little time left, right?"
"What do you want?!" Miyin almost collapsed.
"I am not a saint, you have known this for a long time - the moment you were disappointed in me. Although, I never said that you should maintain this illusion of me. But it doesn't matter, what I want to say is actually...
...Many times, I told myself, give up on you. You are already a monster and you are in league with monsters. You stand on the opposite side of human beings and are not worthy of sympathy and redemption.
Regarding your existence, let that adult handle everything else. My colleagues and I only need to deal with business matters. You are just a small life that I have saved over hundreds of years, a person who has everything that all lives have.
, a life with the right to choose independently. Many times, I almost convinced myself to treat you as a white-eyed wolf without a conscience. "
Xue Miyin bit her lower lip so hard that it almost bled. She had never thought about whether Lord Shuangyue would treat her this way, but she told herself "don't care". But now these words really came out of this person's mouth.
, still seems too cruel. During the period described in this paragraph, she also had the opportunity to wield a sword, just like Mu Wan.
But none of them did this.
"In the end I decided to save you..."
Mu Wan handed over a small fragment of blue amber, which was exactly one-fifth of the original body.
It is smooth on one side and arched on the other. The raised side reflects my distorted face.
"Because someone asked me not to give up on you."
"You, what nonsense are you talking about..."
Xue Miyin used her free hand to grab the pieces of blue amber and held them tightly in her hand, not giving Mu Wan a chance to regret. But she was becoming more and more hesitant. Miyin didn't know what she was doing at this moment.
What are you hesitating about? If she really became an ordinary person, wouldn't this be a great thing? With just one blow, even if the knife is made of the same material as the Demon-Sealing Blade, this woman will die. She is an ordinary woman.
!
but……
but--
If you kill this ordinary woman, she will die...she will truly die forever. But is this woman who seems to be killed by herself the next moment really the person she wants to kill?
It may be strange to think so. She is Shuangyue Lord and Liangqiu Muwan. In the final analysis, they are the same person. But no matter what, Xue Miyin cannot relate an immortal six-path impermanence to an ordinary human woman. What she really wants to do is
The person who erased his existence was clearly the self-righteous impermanent ghost, not a mere human being. Human beings are so fragile, and there is no meaning or value for her to do anything - and she was once so fragile.
Even though the former Shigetsuki-kun's attitude was so peaceful, almost too calm to be like a normal person. But Miyin still hesitated. It would be better to say...she was not so determined from the beginning.
"What I said is true," said the ordinary woman sitting on the ground, "I'm afraid you have forgotten... you once had such a close partner who stayed with your shamisen. Where is your shamisen?
?I’m afraid I haven’t touched her for a long time. Think about it, Amiao was once the place where you miss your friend... But after you find the person you think you are, can Amiao be abandoned? "
"You fart!"
Xue Miyin became angry and stabbed the dagger in her hand under the catalysis of emotions. Although Mu Wan was peaceful, he was not waiting for death peacefully. The combat experience accumulated over hundreds of years was of course genuine, and these things were not inconsistent with her impermanence.
Her identity is firmly linked. Even if she becomes an ordinary person, she still has this strength and reaction ability.
Therefore, she grabbed Mi Yin's wrist as a matter of course.
Miyin was already trembling and did not have much strength. It was easy to restrain her. Xue Miyin had also given up her human identity long ago. Her power as a monster allowed her to fight to the death with the "old friend" in front of her.
"I don't care whether you care about Amiao or not. But I know that she still cares about you."
"What's the point of talking about this now?"
"Do you really want to disappoint it and make it sad? You should use this amber to listen to its voice."
"You are really the same as before, only capable of these bluffing tricks!"
"You never think about what it really wants, you just focus on your own feelings."
Mu Wan spoke mercilessly, making it impossible for her to associate with the once gentle Lord Shuang Yue. She put her dagger away with force, and Mi Yin stabbed him from the other direction. Mu Wan raised his head
Lifting Ye Yinlu's legs with the toes of his shoes, he held the umbrella handle firmly in his hand, just in time to withstand this powerful blow - at least it was much more powerful than the previous one.
"Who do you have to judge me?!"
"Maybe I'm not qualified," the woman named Mu Wan used Shuangyue Jun's umbrella to parry, "I just use your method to interpret me. If you think I'm irresponsible, then you are not responsible either; you privately
Create a god, there is no place for you
It’s a dream that can be given away; I assume that you have a conscience and will not abandon a small soul. I just admitted that I really want to give up on you, so can I understand that you will give up the one who has been with you for many years?
The cat was abandoned?"
Xue Miyin no longer wanted to explain. Even Qiyu's evil messenger was too lazy to argue in the face of such resentment. She waved the dagger, but not at a fatal place, and Lord Shuangyue also adjusted her state and picked up the umbrella handle.
Block this weak blow.
They were evenly matched when they fought, which was really surprising. Perhaps the knowledge and experience of the six realms of impermanence were deeply rooted in Mu Wan's body; perhaps Xue Miyin, who was in a complicated mood, was unable to exert her best in this situation.
The strength of one person and one demon is in a stalemate like this. It seems that everyone wants to put the other to death, but no one wants to do so.
In this battle that put their lives at risk, none of them were distracted.
