Despite his pretending to be indifferent, Jingliu raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
"You're lying. You've also learned bad habits. If you really didn't know what I wanted to say, you should have said you couldn't remember anything instead of deliberately trying to please me like this."
"I……"
"Whatever. Whether you really don't know or are pretending not to know... Bai Heng, she was our comrade-in-arms. Even though she's now a thing of the past, as someone who shouldn't have died, someone should always remember what happened..."
Jingliu felt the heartbeat that could still be called "alive", and the tone gradually became colder.
"The reason I came to Star Harbor is to pay my respects to her."
This sentence naturally reminded Yan Qing of the key piece of the puzzle, and he asked aloud.
"Oh...you mean, the fox people's 'comfort ceremony'?"
"Yes, I sent the Star Raft, representing the deceased, into the starry sky. I left in a hurry and didn't get to say goodbye to her, and I still feel regretful. Before leaving Luofu, I wanted to put this matter to rest."
Jingliu withdrew his hand and his gaze from the white clouds that were faintly visible on the skyline, and spoke softly.
"However, I know nothing about the manufacture of Star Rafts. I only know that they can be made here..."
"I see... Come with me."
Although Yan Qing still had strong suspicions towards Jing Liu, but... that sadness was not fake, and he did not think that this woman would be so cruel as to lie about the deceased.
Moreover, he had just recalled that he had read about the pilot Bai Heng in a book.
His works include "The Wonderful View of the Starry Sea", which is written in a humorous style. Nine out of ten pages are about the author's experiences of star raft crashing in different worlds and frequent dangers, interspersed with records of local species and ecology.
More importantly, she was also the person whose whereabouts after that bloody battle were unclear, and even the whereabouts of her remains were not recorded.
If she were just an ordinary pilot, it would be fine, but this name, if there is no duplicate, then the only person who can match it is Bai Heng, who was known as the "Star Raft Killer" over 700 years ago when the Five Warriors of the Clouds were still active.
...Have the Five Heroes of Yunshang from the past finally reunited in this way hundreds of years later?
Yan Qing was feeling annoyed, but he still started the Star Raft's assembly line with quick movements. With the injection of nutrient solution, the Star Raft inside slowly took shape, and finally automatically sailed towards the airport according to the program.
A few people moved to Xingcha Port, where a "memorial ceremony" had just been held.
Groups of star ships sailed towards the starry sky, leaving only the empty port and the star ship that looked particularly lonely.
Jingliu walked to his side, reached out and touched him gently, seeming to feel sad.
"Yinyue, do you still remember the battle where we killed Shuhu?"
"The Order of Abundance 'Shu Hu' gathered a large army and attacked the Alliance... I read this history while in prison."
"It seems that after your rebirth, you also want to find your past life experience."
"Even if I don't want it to, his past and grudges will find me."
Dan Heng leaned against the port's signboard, forming a completely opposite side to Jing Liu.
"That's right. Even if you don't want to, and don't want to listen, we, the ghosts of the old times, will still not let you go so easily..."
Jingliu took out the wine flask tied around his waist and placed it in the cabin of the Star Chariot. His tone finally showed some movement.
"Let me tell you about the part of that battle that was erased. That fool who always managed to turn danger into safety, no matter how difficult the situation, eventually exhausted the luck bestowed upon him by the Imperial Bow."
"She was alone in the battlefield, allowing the Alliance soldiers to break through the sudden "Blood Stained Hell Realm", and she also called you back from the Dragon Rage. But she was unable to leave that battlefield, and we all owed her an unpayable debt."
"For a Cloud Rider, being buried on the battlefield is an honor. But Yinyue... you don't understand. You couldn't accept Bai Heng's departure, and you used the secret dragon transformation technique on her... At the moment when she should have rested in peace, you committed an irreparable mistake."
Under Yan Qing's complicated gaze, the young man named Dan Heng only half closed his eyes.
"so..."
"So, even if you're tired of hearing it, there will always be someone who repeats it a thousand times. Last time it was him, this time it's me, and next time it might be someone else.
Those who suffered because of the sins committed by Dan Feng, the sorrow they endured was no different from the ancient sea in Linyuan Realm, and they would never be able to find a way out of it in their lifetime.
And I will never allow you to quit in the process of settling the old feud—"
"..."
"Don't respond to me. The answer is no longer important. Yinyue, I'm sending this star ship away. Let's witness the end it should have come..."
Under the gaze of the three people, the star ship that stored Jingliu's gift slowly sailed towards the sea of stars, and the afterglow left by it across the sky looked like stars.
Jingliu only turned around and looked at the poet who had come alone at some point after he saw the star raft completely disappear.
"Well, you must have heard what I said just now. I will definitely do what I promised. Even if it means cutting down the stars in the sky, I will never break my promise."
"Don't be so fierce. I know you won't give up so easily, nor will you defend Dan Heng. After all, he has already said that he will bear all the consequences.
However, whether from the perspective of a close friend or a fellow passenger on the train, I don’t think this will solve any problems—"
Wendy placed her hand gently on the harp, smiling sincerely.
"Oh? Then what do you want to do? Can you split him in two and let the person who really committed the sin stand here again?"
Jingliu did not give in, but instead approached quickly. The fragrance like that of winter plums emanated from his body, causing the poet to take a step back. While suppressing the humiliation in his mind that felt like someone biting a handkerchief, he maintained a mysterious smile.
"What if I say yes?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere on the field suddenly changed. Jing Liu also took off his black veil eye mask, and his red eyes stared at him with strong emotions.
There was malice, sorrow, and emptiness. Those eyes, having witnessed so many sacrifices and unwilling to stop, were filled with obsession.
"Then give it a try. If you can truly do it, I will follow the principle of righteousness... But if you can't, as payment for fooling me, please take my sword."
……
After leaving the middle field temporarily, Jingliu stood a little further away, while Danheng frowned and looked at Wendy. Before coming, the poet had never said that he could do this.
The complicated emotions surging in his heart also made him subconsciously ask.
"Wendy, what do you want to do?"
"It's very simple. Just completely separate the remaining part of your body that belongs to Dan Feng."
Wendy crossed her arms and looked very proud.
"It belongs to Danfeng... but he and I have long been inseparable. No matter how I try to hide it, this memory will always connect us to each other."
Dan Heng sighed.
"I know you want to help me out of kindness, but it doesn't matter. Since I have used the power of Yinyue, I will naturally bear the consequences. You don't have to lie to her for me. That woman is very dangerous..."
"Hehe. No matter how dangerous it is, can anyone be more powerful than me?"
Wendy said this in a slightly "arrogant" manner.
"Okay, don't overthink it. If I really wanted to take you away, no one could stop me. You're only here because of the mistakes you made in your previous life, Dan Feng. You can't just run away if you want to. It's better to just get rid of it all at once."
"Are you really going to take action?"
Dan Heng's expression became a little nervous. He moved closer to Wendy and whispered.
"This is Luofu. Although Jing Yuan has lifted the ban on me, using my power to make enemies over this matter...is not a wise choice."
"Even though you said it wasn't a wise choice, if a fight really breaks out, we'll definitely side with our relatives instead of the innocent, right? We're both on the same side—"
Wendy winked at him and smiled mischievously.
"Don't worry. I didn't intend to bully her. If I have to give a reason, it's simply because I don't like anyone saying to you: Yinyue, the sins you've committed are irreparable!
To me, you are just a friend I value, a guard of the Star Train, and an ordinary person named Dan Heng."
"..."
"So, let me help you leave this shallow water and reach the wider starry sky, okay?"
There was a hint of sincerity in the boy's eyes.
"...I will cooperate with you." Dan Heng took a deep breath and said seriously, "How do I do it specifically?"
"Just stand still."
Wendy spoke softly, and placed her clean hands lightly on his forehead, then she used a small but already emerging corner of her authority.
The power that symbolizes freedom does not only represent the wind.
It was more of a tornado power emanating from Wendy's body, the Tower King's power, while the power he possessed belonged to Barbatos. That tiny wind that brought about a turnaround and hope, after experiencing Snail III, had its upper limit greatly expanded due to the pharmacist's guidance, which ultimately led to his departure for the Immortal Ship.
And what did he gain from this trip?
If I just come here to be possessed by Huanlong, wouldn't that be a laughing stock?
In fact, Huanlong's golden body should have been able to be swallowed and refined by him. Once he mastered the embodiment of the miracle of abundance, the power he could exert would be much stronger than Huanlong, who was weak and loved to fight against others head-on.
In the battle at the Scale Abyss Realm, Huanlong completely abandoned his advantage. Before he even secured victory, he was eager to reduce Jingyuan to a mere pawn, which was like popping champagne in the middle of the game.
But Wendy is different. His strength comes from his pursuit of a free destiny, and the concept of freedom is very broad.
Giving people the freedom to choose is freedom. Freedom is also freedom when people are no longer trapped by the past.
Based on this idea, he allowed Dan Feng, or Dan Heng, to no longer be trapped in each other's bodies, and to achieve the independence of their two wills. Isn't this also freedom?
For this reason, as long as Wendy correctly practices the concept of destiny, she will be able to achieve such a miracle.
The separation of Dan Heng and Dan Feng, two sides of the same body.
"Next, it might be a little painful, so you have to grit your teeth and bear it."
A faint green light appeared at Wendy's fingertips, and then she poked.
In an instant, Dan Heng's face turned pale, and the pain as if his soul was cut apart instantly swept through his whole body, and even the dragon form of the Vajra Master inevitably emerged on its own.
But this dragon image is more like an illusion, and it also contains the residual image of someone in the past.
Wendy also confirmed the moment it appeared, and the wind blew between her sleeves, and she exerted more force.
At this moment, even Jingliu, who was standing a little further away, heard a sound like flesh and bones being torn apart.
Yan Qing, who was standing next to her, widened his eyes in shock. He saw a man being separated from Dan Heng's body.
He was naked, with a crown of horns and a dragon's tail wrapped around his lower body. His golden eyes, though still confused, held a natural hint of coldness and arrogance.
He nearly fell to the ground, but the next moment his body was lifted up by a cloud of mist, keeping it free from any dust, and even adorning his clothes in a moment.
Dan Heng suddenly shed his dragon appearance and instead wore his usual attire. Although they looked the same, no one would mistake them for the same person.
It would be more appropriate to say that they were brothers. After confirming the condition of the body, the Dragon Lord who should be called Dan Feng just nodded coldly at Wendy, and then slowly floated towards where Jingliu was.
But he was met with a slash from Tan Yue.
The crazy look on her face as if she was going to take off his head reminded Long Zun of her last time they parted.
She was no different then than she is now, standing there like a wandering soul, only possessed by a deep obsession.
She said, "I should have killed you first... but you have other sins to suffer for eternity..."
Now, the eternal punishment has suddenly stopped, but it is time to pay for his sins.
Chapter 35 Their Journey
"Yinyue, you really are back."
Today, Jing Liu's eyes are bloodshot, and his sanity is almost gone. All that remains is the resentment that has been burning like a firewood for countless years.
"..."
Standing before her, Dragon Lord, keeping his sideways posture, had a calm expression, unmoved by her words. As the separated side of Dan Feng, his personality was identical to that of the original, but that was all.
It is meaningless to expect the old shadows of the past to answer anything.
Perhaps recalling something from this cold attitude, Jingliu tilted his cheek slightly, and then outlined a sad and miserable smile.
"...Are you ready to die?"
"It's no use talking more."
The cold-faced Dragon Lord had blazing golden eyes and spoke in a dull tone.
"Let's do it."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Tanhua sword in Jingliu's hand swung out a sharp arc, like a chain of moonlight, and the shadow broke through the air swiftly.
But the opponent just put two fingers together and crushed the moonlight-like sword wave, replacing it with the shadow of a dark dragon that kept overlapping like waves.
They circled around the two of them, and Yan Qing, who was originally next to Jing Liu, felt as if the weight of Gu Hai was hanging over his heart.
