Fairy, shut up! I'm really not blondie.

Their bet was whether the boy would be consumed by his own fantasies.

Judging from the current situation...

Let alone devouring it.

It was clearly not even enough to slightly disturb the boy's mind.

They were instead controlled.

That's really embarrassing.

Qingying: "..."

Although I was very unwilling.

but.

That's it.

It's rare to find such an interesting boy among us.

She also hates people who break their promises.

"Ok."

Qingying nodded.

"what do you want to do?"

She never thought she would lose.

therefore.

They didn't even listen to the boy's conditions.

Su Qing didn't stand on ceremony.

To put it bluntly.

"Lend your power to Her Majesty the Empress over there."

"as well as."

"Come out with me."

Qingying raised an eyebrow.

She could understand the first condition.

Since they were able to reveal their identity as an ancient dragon vein.

It would be a lie not to covet this power.

but.

"Go out with you?"

"What do you mean?"

Giving power does not require her to leave the dragon vein.

The boy said matter-of-factly.

"If you don't come along."

"But if you were to strip away that power, your current consciousness would completely dissipate."

Qingying is not the guardian of the ancient dragon vein.

Rather, it is the ancient dragon vein itself.

Extract all the power from the dragon vein.

Her personality will then disappear.

Qingying, however, didn't care.

"I know."

"That's fine too."

"After thousands of years, consciousness will eventually coalesce again."

Su Qing asked curiously.

"Is that re-formed consciousness still you?"

Qingying was taken aback.

He then said.

"It probably isn't."

A long time ago.

In the beginning of time, when heaven and earth were first created.

The four ancient dragon veins once converged and were used.

That time.

The Way of Heaven was born.

In the beginning, heaven and earth were separated.

Thereafter.

The four ancient dragon veins have been lost.

This is clearly a moment I experienced firsthand.

But in Qingying's mind, only the "record" of the event itself remained, rather than a memory.

Regarding what happened at that time.

She has no memory of it at all.

I can't even remember what kind of personality I have.

It seems so.

After the four ancient dragon veins converged that time, their consciousness should have been erased.

And the concept of "Qingying".

It is now a completely new entity.

Speaking of which...

Her three companions have yet to regain consciousness.

They were incredibly lazy.

but--

Even if we know all this.

so what?

Qingying said in an indifferent tone.

"I do not care."

"Just like you humans."

"Birth, aging, sickness, and death give rise to desires, and thus to so many strange and intriguing things."

"Wouldn't it be too boring to live forever?"

Qingying swayed her legs.

Said.

“That little guy over there has our presence in him.”

"With me, we should be able to find the remaining four ancient dragon veins soon."

"call."

She let out a breath.

He glanced at the "treasure" he was holding in his hand.

Suddenly I felt a little regretful.

It was at this very moment that she saw such a beautiful dream.

in fact.

Having witnessed so many different kinds of "desire" over the years, she had grown somewhat weary of it.

At first glance.

Human desires are varied and diverse.

But upon closer inspection...

It seems like that's about it.

Greed, lust, and power—these are things one cannot obtain.

Well.

None of them are as beautiful as the landscapes and earthly life in that boy's dream.

We were just a little late.

otherwise.

She can at least rely on these dreams to observe another hundred years.

"so."

Qingying is now interested in something else.

Can you tell me?

"Why are you able to resist being controlled by desires?"

Why are there so many dreams?

"sure."

Su Qing nodded her chin.

He generously agreed.

"but."

"Everything has a price."

"You have to offer something in return, don't you?"

Qingying fell silent.

This human boy really isn't willing to suffer even the slightest loss.

That's it.

Anyway, it's the last minute.

"You say it."

I promise you.

"It's very simple."

The young man said calmly.

"I never shy away from my desires."

"want to."

"You have to earn it yourself."

"Moreover, what comes before desire is my solution. For example, this."

talking.
