Chapter 20 The Shocking Changes in Stone Village: The Rebirth of the Willow Goddess, the Descendant of a Banished Immortal
"We...know each other?"
The willow god's divine thoughts arrived once more.
This time, the ethereal voice carried an even deeper sense of confusion.
"Are you someone I used to know?"
"I can sense... you are very strong."
"It is stronger than many beings I can remember."
"What formidable enemies will emerge in the future?"
"Even you... are no match for him?"
She asked directly.
Because she really wanted to know.
Severely injured and reborn, her memories shattered, her understanding of the world is almost entirely blank.
But a premonition made her uneasy.
She sensed that the entire world was about to face an unimaginable catastrophe.
The person in front of you might be someone who knows the truth.
Su Ling remained silent for a moment.
He gazed at the divine willow tree, its branches shimmering with emerald light.
A hazy, beautiful figure vaguely appears among the willow branches.
An old friend?
I guess so.
In the late Immortal Era, the Ancestral Sacrifice Spirit fought a bloody battle in a foreign land, perishing and his Dao vanished.
His Divine Demon Tai Chi Diagram had, decades ago, autonomously drawn together a fallen remnant spirit from the lower realm.
It was Willow God who had just fallen into Stone Village and was on the verge of disappearing.
However, at that time, Su Ling was afraid of affecting the "plot", so she silently returned the remnant spirit to Stone Village.
These things, of course, cannot be said.
"No."
Su Ling shook his head, his tone indifferent.
"I don't know him."
"As for the future..."
He looked up, his gaze seemingly piercing through endless time and space, seeing the surging sea of the boundary and the pervasive darkness.
You'll understand later.
As he finished speaking, a hazy halo appeared around him, and his figure gradually faded away.
They were clearly preparing to leave.
He was in a hurry to get back to fishing.
Seeing that he was really going to leave, Liu Shen became a little anxious.
Having finally encountered someone who might know the past and future and whose level is unimaginably high, how can we let him leave?
"etc!"
The willow god's divine thought arrived, carrying a rare fluctuation.
The next moment, the willow tree trunk shone brightly.
Thousands of lush green willow branches swayed simultaneously, scattering a shower of sunlight.
Amidst the dazzling light, a figure slowly materialized and stepped out from the willow tree.
It was a woman.
No, perhaps even using the word "woman" to describe her would be too superficial.
She was dressed in a simple blue dress, and her figure was tall and graceful.
Her black hair cascaded down to her waist, the ends of which shimmered with a star-like luster.
Her face was stunningly beautiful, her demeanor ethereal and graceful, her elegance refined and otherworldly.
She walked barefoot, stepping through the void.
Her jade-like feet were snow-white, always an inch away from the ground, untouched by dust.
With each step she took, her blue dress clung to her, outlining breathtaking curves.
Her legs were long and straight, her waist was slender and supple, and her chest was full and rounded.
It was a natural and effortless elegance.
It is so beautiful that one forgets the mundane world upon seeing it, and cannot feel the slightest sense of disrespect, only awe.
Everyone in Shicun was dumbfounded.
Willow Goddess... has manifested in human form?!
The willow spirit floated to Su Ling's side and stopped three feet away from him.
Their eyes met.
Su Ling could clearly see the confusion, the searching, and a hint of urgency in her eyes.
She slightly raised her slender white hand, and emerald green light gathered at her fingertips.
"This is the 'Willow God Method' that I realized during my Nirvana, and the 'Original True Explanation: Divine Guidance Chapter'."
Her voice rang out directly in Su Ling's mind, still ethereal, but with a touch more solemnity.
"Although it's not as good as what you gave me, it's... a return gift."
After saying that, she gently touched Su Ling's brow with her fingertip.
Su Ling did not move.
He let the cold fingertips touch his forehead.
The next moment, a vast stream of information flooded into my mind.
A willow tree was born from chaos, endured tribulations, received sacrifices, witnessed the rise and fall of heaven and earth, and comprehended the cycle of life and death.
That is the fundamental mystery of the Willow God Method, containing the true meaning of life and nirvana.
In addition, there is a complete understanding of "Original True Explanation: Divine Guidance".
After receiving the information, a hint of surprise flashed in Su Ling's eyes.
The Willow God Method truly lives up to its reputation as the fundamental method for ancestral worship.
His explanations of life, creation, and nirvana are truly unique.
Thank you.
Su Ling smiled at her.
The smile was faint, yet it made Liu Shen pause slightly.
The boy's face was incomparably handsome, clearly carrying a divine nobility and aloofness.
This smile, however, was like the first melting of ice and snow, possessing a breathtakingly pure beauty.
His eyes seemed to hold the birth and death of the universe and stars, and his whole being was perfect, like the most exquisite creation of the heavens.
It is a sacred beauty that transcends gender and is inviolable.
Liu Shen came to her senses, and the urgency in her heart grew even stronger.
She was about to ask more questions.
The aura around Su Ling suddenly brightened.
"See you again someday."
He left behind only these four words, and his figure transformed into billions of points of light, like a reversed Milky Way, dissipating into the void.
They left decisively and without hesitation.
...
Liu Shen stood still, her outstretched hand still suspended in mid-air.
She stared at the spot where Su Ling had disappeared, at the gradually dimming light, and for the first time, a clear hint of... annoyance appeared on her beautiful face.
Although it was faint, it was definitely annoyance.
She has lost too many memories, and with only instinct and fragmented images, she simply cannot piece together the truth.
She finally encountered someone who might know everything and whose level was so high that she felt he was unfathomable.
But the other person... just left like that.
They wouldn't even say another word.
Willow Goddess frowned slightly, her green robes fluttering gently in the evening breeze.
She withdrew her hand, looked down at her palm, and then looked up at the endless sky.
The sense of familiarity in her heart did not dissipate because of Su Ling's departure; on the contrary, it became even clearer.
"We... must have met before."
She murmured to herself, her voice filled with certainty.
But when? And where?
Why... can't I remember?
She stood there silently, thousands of willow branches swaying silently behind her, the shimmering blue sky reflecting on her exquisitely beautiful face, which was filled with confusion and searching.
The setting sun finally sank completely behind the western mountains.
As night falls, the stars appear.
The villagers of Shicun remained kneeling on the ground, not daring to get up.
The little one quietly raised her face, glanced at Liu Shen's silent back, then at the sky where Su Ling had disappeared, blinked her big eyes, and muttered softly:
"Big brother... will you come again?"
"The milk he gave me was so delicious..."
"It's just too little..."
The voice was very soft, yet it made Liu Shen's body stiffen almost imperceptibly for a moment.
She slowly turned around, her gaze falling on the little one.
Complex light flickered in those deep, ancient eyes.
After a long while, she sighed softly, her figure transforming into a shower of light, and merged back into the jade willow tree.
Only a single divine thought remained, echoing in the ears of Shi Yunfeng and the others:
"Do not spread this matter outside."
As the words fell, the willow tree's brilliance subsided, returning to calm, with only its countless tendrils swaying gently in the night breeze.
...
Douluo Continent.
Four days passed in the blink of an eye.
But for the hundreds of millions of living beings across the continent, those four days felt like four centuries.
On every street corner, everyone was talking about the terrifying otherworldly realm depicted on the light screen.
In taverns, teahouses, sect halls, and deep within the imperial palace, there is only one topic: "Perfect World".
