Chapter 402 Walnut's Birthday, A Brief Joy
Chapter 402 Walnut's Birthday, A Brief Joy
"The wild goose possesses a loyal and steadfast spirit."
"To live, we shall share the same fate; to die, we shall share the same grave."
The world is full of perils.
"Birth brings separation, death brings parting."
Walnut, seated on the throne, now had an endless pale red glow between her brows.
The entire hall was filled with an aura of intertwined life and death.
After a while, as the halo gradually dissipated, Hu Tao gently opened her eyes, having successfully completed her transformation and become the Saint of Netherfire.
The scene changes.
Taking advantage of the temporary sealing of the laws of nature, and on this auspicious occasion, the group went to the southern city of Sumeru to celebrate Hu Tao's birthday and the return of Hu Tao's family.
After being ripped off at the Lambad Tavern, Yan Li and Imange, thanks to the redemption of the Ruler of Life, Baal, recovered to normal vital signs and sat at a table with Kong Ying, Xiao Li, and the Seven Gods.
Meanwhile, the five great dragon kings of wind, rock, grass, water, and fire sat at the same table with the four ruling officials.
Xunfeng sat down next to Hu Tao and started the "parent-teacher meeting" mode.
"Dad, Grandpa, look, this is Xun Feng, the creator of the Seven Elements!"
As Hu Tao looked at Xun Feng, her eyes sparkled.
"Haha, my granddaughter has grown up. It's best to have someone to keep you company."
"Grandpa Hu and Uncle Hu, congratulations on your return."
Xun Feng, who was not good at social niceties, stiffly raised his water glass, then stood up with a forced smile and raised his glass to them as a sign of respect.
"Hmm—? That way of addressing her seems too formal. We unconditionally support Hu Tao's choice. Now that we're family, shouldn't we change how we address her?"
As he spoke, Walnut's father covered his mouth with his fist, hiding the slight upturn of his lips.
"Oh dear, it's been so long since I've seen Dad smile!"
Hu Tao thought to herself.
"Ahem, Grandpa! Dad! I've always been quite worried about Hu Tao. Although she's always been strong and hasn't revealed her true feelings, it's obvious to everyone that she's always been concerned about you all... Your return this time has finally opened her heart, and I don't have to worry about her anymore."
"Xunfeng!"
Hearing Xun Feng's words, Hu Tao awkwardly covered her flushed face and said coquettishly.
"Hehehe, Little Walnut is still the same as before, she gets embarrassed when her secrets are exposed."
Grandpa Walnut said with a smile.
Even the Death Ruler, Ronava, was completely bewildered as she observed the two mortal bodies that had seemingly returned to the table next door.
"Ishtar, my laws... seem to be failing. What should I do?"
"Heh, you fabricated this realm just to make the King of the Underworld wait for the arrival of the Saint of Netherfire, didn't you?"
After saying that, Istaru gently rubbed her forehead.
"On this joyous day, I'm trying to tease you in a human way, why are you so serious?"
Ronawa smiled wryly, then fell silent.
the other side.
"Master, you were so cool just now! You controlled all of Tianli's summoned creatures with a wave of your hand. Hmph, it seems I've always followed the right person!"
“Xiao Li, after returning to power, I have remembered the things between you and me. Back then, the war between the demons and gods suddenly broke out, and heroes from all over the world vied for power, wanting to obtain one of the seven gods in order to survive. When you were on the verge of death, you were saved by me, who had descended to the mortal world to inspect the war. I then protected you in the Shadow Dance Sword Li, waiting for us to meet again.”
"Hehe, let's not talk about this anymore. I think those two over there have something to say. Let them talk."
Upon hearing this, Imang and Yanli exchanged a glance, sighed softly, and then looked at Kong.
"Kong, now that you've taken power... the Abyss Order has lost a deity. Who will lead the way from now on?"
Iman said seriously.
"Old Tu said that the mark of destiny on you is very deep, even he can't see through it. I never thought that you would be the one brought back to Teyvat by the God of Light from the universe... Imang, what should I say... The leader appointed by Old Tu is the one who controls destiny - the Abyss, as an outsider, will definitely not merge with the destiny trajectory of Teyvat. We will be driven away sooner or later."
As Yan Li spoke, she lowered her head helplessly.
"No one can define good and bad, right and wrong. Since we all pursue a better tomorrow, we can live under the same starry sky. From now on, our Abyss Order can no longer harm the living beings on Earth."
"Hahaha, although this will cause my Destruction Cultivation to stagnate, it's worth it for the sake of stability!"
"Kong...that..."
Because of Kong's upgraded status, Yan Li became awkward, and it was unclear what she wanted to express.
"Hey? Yanli, you sound different today than usual."
"I—cough!! I wanted to ask you, do you...like me?"
Upon hearing this, Imang quickly covered his ears, indicating that he had actually been deaf and mute all his life.
Xiao Li, who was clueless, just followed along blankly.
After taking a bite of her food, Ying almost choked on her words upon hearing this.
"what?!"
"What's wrong? Am I not good enough for you? Master Tu told me from the beginning that only love could unite the power of chaos with me. But I've changed my mind now. Even if I have to give up the power of chaos, I will still choose you—it is you who has led everyone on the right track since Master Tu's passing. You not only broke the Frost Nail, but also said that the Abyss Order will live in peace in the future. Seeing that the great cause left by Master Tu will not perish, I have no more worries."
As soon as she finished speaking, Yan Li looked closely and saw that Kong—had actually fallen asleep?
"Kong!!! You idiot!"
Seeing Kong's nonchalant attitude, Yan Li pouted angrily and chased after him as he got up and ran away, punching him all the way.
Watching Kong's panicked back, Ying covered her mouth and chuckled softly.
