Chapter 426 There will be no pie in the sky

"You wouldn't be thinking..." Qingyu looked at her with a hint of shock in his eyes.

"Well, I have no more attachments to this world anyway. Ascension is like a legend to me now, something I can never reach. I might as well be like you and maybe I can even gain a good reputation."

If she had to watch helplessly as her cultivation level rapidly declined every day, eventually turning her into a sickly person even worse than an ordinary person, she would rather take advantage of her current cultivation level to do something good for the world.

"Do you still care about these empty titles?" Qingyu knew that he couldn't persuade her no matter what. The former genius had become a sickly person. This drastic change in circumstances would be unacceptable to anyone.

The scene abruptly ended there, and then Nangong Qianxun's figure appeared on the screen.

"Have you seen clearly? Being a system binder isn't easy. When necessary, you have to give up everything, including your life."

“I was already prepared!” Mo Qianxun patted his shoulder.

“Very well, although I don’t know why my bloodline ended up in another world, now that you’ve returned, it’s time for you to inherit my things.” Nangong Qianxun placed her hands on her chest.

"Besides this cenotaph, is there anything else?" Could it be that he's going to inherit this coffin?

"Of course, I was once a prodigy, how could I have left nothing behind? It's just that I had Qingyu create a smokescreen for me so that others can't see it."

"Alright, but speaking of which, aren't you a human cultivator? Why are you buried in Qingqiu? This is the land of the fox clan."

"I don't know either. Maybe... it's because the first spacetime rift I repaired was in Qingqiu!" Nangong Qianxun wasn't very clear about this either.

Although her master sacrificed himself in that great battle, she still had so many junior sisters and brothers. Logically speaking, her cenotaph should not be erected in Qingqiu.

It doesn't matter, it's the same wherever I am, as long as my message gets through.

While others weren't dwelling on what was troubling her, Mo Qianxun, after figuring it out, rubbed her hands together and looked at Nangong Qianxun excitedly: "The thing, where is the thing?"

Nangong Qianxun gave a helpless smile, shook her head, and with a wave of her hand, the clothes that Mo Qianxun was wearing were automatically put on her body.

"What... what's going on?" Mo Qianxun was immediately terrified. Had the clothes come to life?

"This robe was a gift from Qingyu. It's said to be a top-tier robe from the divine realm in another great world, and it's very powerful." Nangong Qianxun nodded in satisfaction as she watched Mo Qianxun put on her clothes, noting that she had a bit of her former aura.

Mo Qianxun looked at the clothes she was wearing: "These clothes are nice, but if I wear them out, people who know the situation will definitely think I dug up your grave."

“An insider…” Nangong Qianxun’s eyes held a hint of melancholy. “So much time has passed, will there still be any old acquaintances? Or will they still remember that there was once a me?”

"I believe they must remember you." Mo Qianxun looked at her and suddenly wondered, if she were to die, would anyone still remember her?

I think so. After all, I saved the world. History books should at least give me a place in their pages!
“Perhaps, but it doesn’t matter. I don’t necessarily want them to remember me. I did all of this voluntarily. It doesn’t matter whether they remember me or not.” Nangong Qianxun said, pointing to her waist. “See that gem?” Mo Qianxun raised her upper body slightly and looked down. There was indeed a purple gem, which was quite pretty.

“This is a space gem, specially crafted by Qingyu. All my assets are inside.” Nangong Qianxun looked at the gem.

"Wow, that's great! It seems you have a pretty good relationship with the Supreme God!"

"It's alright, after all, they're partners who need to fight side by side." Nangong Qianxun finished speaking and looked at Mo Qianxun, "And you, how's your relationship with the system you're bound to?"

"Of course! We're the best partners. We're not family, but we're closer than family. He's not only good to me, but also to my companions and my country." Mo Qianxun's expression was so proud. We're the best of friends in the world.

"That's wonderful," Nangong Qianxun murmured softly.

When Qingyu first arrived, everyone except himself, the one bound to him, treated him with utmost respect. However, after learning the price of the binding, they all avoided him like the plague.

This little system is much better than Qingyu.

"After I decided to repair the spacetime rift, I put most of my wealth into this space. There are some secret manuals that I treasure, which may be helpful for your cultivation. Also, there is a Soul Nourishing Pearl in there, which can help you nurture your soul. Perhaps you will need it someday." Nangong Qianxun looked up at the space.

"Need it? Maybe, thanks! But I don't think you'd be so nice to me for nothing. Tell me, what do you need my help with? It can't just be because of our blood ties, can it?" Mo Qianxun didn't believe this.

She couldn't believe that someone from a bloodline spanning countless generations would send so many gifts.

"I do have a request. I only ask that you help me protect the offspring of one person." Nangong Qianxun's expression suddenly became very serious.

"Oh? You're from who-knows-how-many generations ago, how am I supposed to protect you? Even if I did find this person, what would my status be to be by his side?" This is just making things difficult for him. Sure enough, what falls from the sky isn't a pie, but a trap.

“I can help you find his descendants. There is a piece of blood jade in the Time Stone.”

"Oh!" Mo Qianxun searched through the Time-Space Gem for a long time and finally pulled out a piece of white jade, but there was a red pattern in the middle of the jade that looked like a blood droplet.

“What’s sealed inside is a trace of his essence blood. Back then, I made many decisions, and I felt I had done right by Heaven and by all living beings. But the only one I wronged was him.” Nangong Qianxun’s figure disappeared, and what followed was another scene of a battlefield.

A man shielded Nangong Qianxun from a fatal attack.

"No, Huo Yan!" Nangong Qianxun's expression was filled with shock, disbelief, anger, and fear.

Huo Yan lay on the ground and stretched out a hand towards her.

Nangong Qianxun leaped down, grasped his hand, and pulled him into her arms.

"No, you promised me that after this matter is over, you and I will find a secluded place to grow old together. You haven't fulfilled your promise yet, you can't just die like this."
