The Otherworldly God

Chapter 126

It was late at night and everyone was fast asleep. An Ruosu was awakened by the noise and sat up.

"Who?"

The moonlight shone in through the window. In the shadow on the other side, there was an unclear figure. Suddenly, a pair of green eyes appeared. An Ruosu was not scared by him, but leaned back and lay down.

Xuan slowly transformed into a human form, still standing in the darkness. For some reason, the darkness became even darker on him.

“Thousands of years ago, my brother and I woke up from the chaos, not knowing what the world was, nor what we were.

It happened that the Heavenly Sword appeared again in the world and was used by a Taoist family. They were involved in the dispute over the Heavenly Sword, and both my brother and I were injured by the Heavenly Sword.

Before he died, he met Taoist An and by coincidence became his Shikigami, thus prolonging his life.

Now, a thousand years have passed, and my brother and I still don't know what we are. We have encountered the Heavenly Sword again, and our old wounds are aching."

"When I first heard that the Heavenly Sword had reached Jimen Pass and Lezheng, I still had some doubts. Now that you say it is, then it must be true. Xuan, what are your plans?"

"The seal of the Heavenly Sword has not been unlocked yet, so we might as well take this opportunity to kill the master it has recognized in this life. At least we can have peace for hundreds or thousands of years."

Xuan opened his hands, revealing his five sharp claws, and Su appeared next to him and pressed down his claws.

"The Heavenly Sword has repeatedly appeared in the world, it must be because of the prophecy of the goddess Zijin. It is easy to kill one person, but it is not easy to resist the entire demon clan. If the demon clan attacks again, the first to bear the brunt will be Jimen Pass and Le Zheng."

"Do you really think that one person with a divine sword can stop the entire demon race? This is nothing but human beings deceiving themselves."

"It is impossible for one person with only a divine sword to resist the entire demon clan."

"Humans need faith. Aren't gods the product of faith? What humans need is not a person holding the Heavenly Sword to fight. What they want is just a belief. When they think that only the Heavenly Sword can compete with the Heavenly Demon Sword, then without the Heavenly Sword, they will have no chance of winning."

"Is this what the old man of longevity said, master?"

"Le Zheng is different from other families. They experienced the ancient war and have come to this day. The Heavenly Sword was once in Le Zheng's hands, and now it is back in Le Zheng's hands. This is the first time in thousands of years. Now, in a small Jimen Pass, there are two Jiuli artifacts and a Heavenly Sword. More and more people in Le Zheng are beginning to investigate the truth of the ancient war. These coincidences piled together are not just coincidences. Perhaps, the time has finally come for Le Zheng to end the ancient war."

"One of the artifacts is in the hands of Miss Shui Ling. When the old man gave it to Miss Shui Ling, the owner did not agree."

"Shui Ling's identity is special. Although I regard her as my own daughter, she has to bear the entire Le Zheng after all. Even if I tell her the truth, she will choose to accept it and will never back down. Xuan, I can't empathize with the pain of your old injury, but I can understand your feelings. If you don't want to be implicated again, I also understand. You two brothers and sisters have already repaid the debt of gratitude for saving my life in the past and protecting my family for thousands of years. If you want to leave, then go."

Xuan turned around after hearing this. Su thought he was really going to leave like this, but he stared at the floor and said, "I have nowhere to go. Master Zhongming's surname is Le Zheng, so I am Le Zheng Xuan. If he is willing to be in the vortex, then Xuan is in the vortex. This old injury doesn't hurt much."

After saying that, he transformed into a beast and ran straight through the door. Su couldn't help laughing as she watched him leave.

"My brother actually likes Miss Shui Ling very much, so how could he just ignore her? Master, please don't chase us away next time. We have already regarded this place as our home, so there is no need to worry. This time, the Heavenly Sword should not point at us again."

"It's not the tip of the sword, but the back of the hilt. Which one is more difficult and which one is more miserable? You know it better than me. Well, since you have made your choice, I will not say anything more. Go and rest. The night at Jimen Pass is still very peaceful."

"Yes, Master, please rest early."

"Ah."

Su Ye turned into a beast and ran out. An Ruosu sat for a while before lying down. She seemed to be strict with Le Zheng Shui Ling, but she loved Le Zheng Shui Ling very much in her heart. Even though Le Zheng Shui Ling held her son's life, she gradually let it go as they got along.

"Why don't you stay for two more years? You can smile after seeing the Heavenly Sword before leaving, right?"

Su caught up with Xuan who was wandering on the roof and stood in front of him. Now they had no fangs and three tails, and looked like cats.

They didn't say a word to each other. Xuan looked at her and shook his head, then walked to the side, lay down and fell asleep.

Su looked up at the moon. For some reason, the love between the two brothers and sisters for the moon seemed to be innate. Especially when the moon was full, they would feel full of power and even more excited.

Thousands of years ago, they woke up from a cave, snuggling up to each other, knowing only their relationship to each other and nothing else.

All they remembered was a blurry face and a blurry voice; they wanted to catch it but could never do so.

They struggled out of the narrow cave and found a larger cave outside. However, it seemed to have been buried, with only a small section of the cave exposed.

They tried to walk out of the cave, but the sunlight was so blinding that they couldn't open their eyes, so they retreated back and developed a disgust for the sun, especially Xuan.

Su tried to persuade him to go out with her several times, but he refused. Finally, when it was dark, he was willing to step out of the cave.

They were walking in the wilderness when they finally saw some human figures. They went over to them to ask about the situation, but they were mistaken for monsters. They were so scared that they dropped their goods and ran away.

The brother and sister didn't know why, until they saw their own reflections in the water and saw that they looked different from them, they thought it might be because of their appearance. They tried to change, and they really changed into human form. At this time, a Taoist family accepted the task and came to this area to capture them.

The brother and sister have great magical powers and easily defeated the people who accepted the task. In fact, they did not want to hurt anyone, they just wanted to ask who they are.

As a result, they were spotted by a scheming Taoist who tricked them into working for him. Soon, he became famous and became the head of the family.

Just as the Heavenly Sword was born, there were so many Taoists in the world who wanted to be heroes. They all wanted to hold the Heavenly Sword in their own hands, and the same was true for the scheming Taoists.

So, they began to plot against the family that owned the Heavenly Sword, framing them for conspiring with the demon clan. Then, they used the excuse of suppressing the demon clan to massacre the Taoist clan. It was during this massacre that the two brothers and sisters were injured by the Heavenly Sword, and Xuan almost died.

Even now when he thought about it, Xuan still felt the pain in his wound, so when Le Zheng Yuhua brought the Heavenly Sword to the mansion, Xuan's body trembled uncontrollably.

During that day's incident, Xuan experienced firsthand the power of the Heavenly Sword.

Su watched him curled up in pain, and couldn't help but touch his old wounds, and he couldn't help but shiver.

"Donghai Pavilion, Murong clan, that is the debt that my brother and I owed a thousand years ago. Now, perhaps it is time for us to repay it."

Xuan curled up his body and opened his eyes, in which was seen Le Zheng Shuiling as a baby.

When the old man returned holding her, the brother and sister already knew her life story. The hatred of the Murong family has not been eliminated even after a thousand years.

The descendants of Murong still exist in the world, and the seeds of revenge are buried in their hearts, so when Xuan saw Le Zheng Shuiling for the first time, it was as if he saw that seed.

He didn't dare to get close to Le Zheng Shui Ling, either because of guilt or fear. He didn't understand when he saw Su getting close to her.

As Le Zheng Shuiling grew up and began to learn to walk, she always liked to chase after him. Even though Su was the one who was closer to her, she always liked to stick to him.

"A thousand years ago, we, my brother and I, owed the Murong family, but we were also being used. Look, Miss Shui Ling is looking for you again, brother. She really likes you."

Xuan appeared indifferent on the surface, but secretly tried to get close to Le Zheng Shui Ling. However, he was caught by An Ruosu. Xuan wanted to escape shyly but was hugged by Le Zheng Shui Ling.

"I caught him, I caught him. Your name is Xuan, right? Do you want to play with me?"

"Does Shui Ling like Xuan?"

"Yeah, I like it the most."

Xuan also could not forget these words and her smile at that time.

He struggled for a long time, thinking that Le Zheng Shuiling was the one who increased his guilt towards the Murong family. However, Xuan, who was deeply trapped in the memories of Le Zheng Shuiling that day, gradually came to terms with it.

She has the blood of the Murong family, but she is Le Zheng Shui Ling, and she needs her own strength for the future, so he silently told himself that he must protect her.

"Hey, brother likes Miss Shui Ling too, doesn't he?" Xuan jumped up and walked away angrily. Su had already transformed into a human form, looked up at the moon, and said, "You're really not honest enough, brother."
