The Great Desolate Force
Yi Si turned to smile enchantingly to the Sacred Embodied Heavenly Goddess, “Good sister, you are not going to hurt my parents am I right?”
The Sacred Embodied Heavenly Goddess said to the Great Desolate Goddess Nuwa, “You have lied to me and have hidden your true name from me. I have really regretted giving you my aid!”
The Great Desolate Goddess Nuwa lowered her eyes as she said quietly, “Even though it is just for a brief while but I really enjoy my time with you. I really don’t want to fight you or Yi Si but let’s don’t force my hand alright? I am not afraid of anyone.”
She glanced at Yi Ping and his group as she noted the divine auras of their divine weapons and their martial auras as she thought, “This is not an ordinary group and more like an elite group. Who knows, they may even be able to injure me.”
Yi Si immediately smile to the Great Desolate Goddess Nuwa with an endeavoring look, “Good sister Scarlet Endowment Fairy or should I call you the Great Desolate Goddess Nuwa? They are my parents. You mustn’t hurt them!”
The Great Desolate Goddess Nuwa smiled at her, “I have my own destiny and my own plans…”
She stared coldly at Yi Ping and his group, “I will repeat for the last time. Bow before me or else, be prepared for my wrath!”
Youxue was about to say something when she had suddenly noticed that the Great Desolate Goddess Nuwa seemed to be looking at her with interest but before she could confirm her suspicious, the Great Desolate Goddess Nuwa had quickly averted her glances!
Lele immediately cuddled Yi Si to her side as she gasped, “Daughter, we don’t need to be afraid of them. If they are looking for a fight then we shall give them. We mustn’t allow our honor to be tainted and…”
She paused to give Yi Si an endeavoring smile before continuing as she brandished her Divine Echo, “Protégés of the Celestial Palace only fight to win!”
Yi Si smiled gently as she nodded with a quiet demeanor, “I am on your side mother and I am not afraid!”
She held on to Lele tightly and trembled lightly; her mother looked younger than she had thought and that her father was exactly like the righteous hero that she had always imagined!
And now he was standing in front of her and she felt comforted by his presence!
Lie Qing was already next to her to give her a quick hug, “So it seems that my little niece has already grown up and is already a Golden Celestial too?”
Yi Si cuddled Lie Qing as she whispered, “Grandpa has often told me that my mother has two close sisters and one of them is my Aunt Lie!”
Lie Qing cursed softly with a light smile as she tapped her Yi Si lightly, “Do I look like I am so old already?”
Yi Si laughed softly as she winked at Lie Qing, “Aunt Lie!...”
As Yi Ping looked at Yi Si all of a sudden, he was slightly started that she seemed to exude a sense of ease even in this dire times and that she had a jovial aura around her. He immediately thought, “Isn’t this the secret divine skill of Brother Nangong Le, the Exuberant Divine Skill? She has met him?”
He was absolutely delighted that he could see his daughter again and he simply could not believe that she had all grown up now. This was the first time that he had met his grown up daughter but he knew that she was truly his own daughter!
He had many questions to ask her but he knew that this was not the time and place to ask. It was because at this moment he had noticed that the Great Desolate Goddess Nuwa was still looking at him coldly!
So he said with a soft sigh, “I only ask that the Great Desolate Goddess Nuwa will not hurt the rest. Since I am the one that has injured you then this feud should only be settled between us, am I right?”
Alice, Asura, Lele and almost all the other maidens immediately said, “No! We will fight her together!”
The Universal Old Man, the Lord Supreme, Skylord Jun and the Immortal Saint of Swords had all readied a combat stance as they said together, “Brother Yi Ping! Since we are your brothers, we will naturally fight together even if we are not her match!”
Yi Ping sighed softly as he looked at everyone…
Yi Ping said firmly, “No, even if all of us join hands together we may not be her match!”
The Universal Old Man heaved a heavy sigh, “Protégé…you…Brother Yi…”
He had wanted to order Yi Ping to back off as a protégé master would to a protégé but he had suddenly remembered that they had just sworn to be equal as brothers together!
It was something that he had not regretted. It was because all along they were protégé master and protégé in all but name. Sure enough, he had taught Yi Ping his Ultrapowerful Force but that was because he had found him to be too weak then and wanted to show off his superior skills. But after they had been through so many trials together, he began to see Yi Ping as his comrade and close companion!
To the celestial practitioners, the stage of their divinities and tribulations denoted their exact ranking and not family ties. In fact family ties had no place in a celestial clan because the first rule was to cut off all blood ties!
But unlike martial clans where seniority would come first, true celestial clans often regarded advancement in celestial practice/attainment as the solo criteria to determine seniority. It was because unlike martial arts, celestial cultivation could only depend on self-cultivation and self-enlightenment!
Skylord Jun was an Immortal and a powerful one. The Universal Old Man, the Lord Supreme and the Immortal Saint of Swords had actually seen this as an opportunity to advance their own cultivation through this Skylord Jun and to find an ally when they had transmigrated to the Immortal Realm in the future!
Naturally the Universal Old Man was not going to let this advantage went to the Lord Supreme and the Immortal Saint of Swords!
If he could be a protégé master and brother to Yi Ping then he would have double reinforced his relations with Yi Ping. Now this was important if Yi Ping was the Great God Pangu…
He cursed softly but there was not a trace of unhappiness in his heart, “This Lord Supreme, he is trying to get ahead of me. Fine, fine! But it isn’t a bad thing now that we are brothers…haha!”
His thoughts were interrupted by Lele who had gasped to Yi Ping, “Then why did you?!”
She immediately pointed at Yi Si, “And to think that our family has just been united and now this?!”
Alice said quietly, “She is injured and her reactions will be naturally slowed!”
The Great Desolate Goddess Nuwa smiled coldly, “You can try!”
Yi Ping immediately silenced everyone with a stern look before he bowed respectfully to the Great Goddess Desolate Nuwa, “I will be your only challenger. Win or lose, you have to let them go!”
The Great Desolate Goddess Nuwa said immediately, “Not so easy. If I win, I want to take two persons from your group away!”
Yi Ping was startled by her demands so he asked, “If I lose then who you will take away?”
The Great Desolate Goddess Nuwa immediately pointed at Youxue and Lingfeng, “I want her to come with me!”
Youxue, Yi Ping, Lingfeng and all the rest were startled by her requests!
Youxue and Lingfeng were both thinking, “What does she wants from us?”
Yi Ping smiled bitterly as he thought, “How can I allow this to even happen?”
All of a sudden Lingfeng said coolly, “Ping’Er then use us as a wager! I don’t mind!”
Youxue was also smiling mesmerizingly, “I really don’t mind as well. It is not like she wants to kill us or she will have already done so!”
Yi Ping looked at them melancholy as he tightened his fists; Youxue, Lingfeng and Yixian were among the first of the consorts that he had met. He had been through many difficult adventures with them and it was not easy for them to reach this point. He had already lost Yixian and he knew that if he was to lose Youxue or Lingfeng then his mental and spirit fortitude would surely falter!
When the Great Desolate Goddess Nuwa saw that Yi Ping was hesitating, she immediately said. “It is not as bad as you think. Not only I want them to come with me, I want them to come willing to me. Not only will I not hurt them but I want to take them in as my protégés!”
Yi Ping, Lingfeng, Youxue and all the rest were all startled as they looked at each other with shock!
Even the Sacred Embodied Heavenly Goddess and Yi Si were exchanging startled look!
The Sacred Embodied Heavenly Goddess quickly composed herself, “Don’t you all know that if the Great Desolate Goddess Nuwa wants to take them in then their fates will be worse than death. They would be torment by the chaotic destruction energies of the Great Desolate Force for all eternity, enter into a separation between Heavens and the Earth as they lose all their humanity!”
She lifted her eyes to look sternly at the Great Desolate Goddess Nuwa, “Don’t believe? You can ask her! She may look compose and appears to be the most beautiful person in the entire universe but that is actually just an illusion. She just wants the others to join her as they wrought chaos to the Three Known Realms. Only then can they become tranquil because that is their true nature and manifestation!”
Yi Ping was trembling as he muttered, “To spread chaos throughout the Three Known Realms…only then can they become tranquil…because that is their true nature and manifestation…”
The Great Desolate Goddess Nuwa said coolly, “That is right. Since ancient times, the Righteous Universal Forces and the Chaotic Desolate Forces have always opposed each other…”
Lingfeng whispered to him, “Ping’Er, don’t hesitate anymore or it will affect your fighting spirit!”
Youxue smiled, “It is not like you will surely lose. At least I think that you have a fifty percent chance but even if you have lost, I don’t mind. At most, you can always come to look for us when you are stronger.”
She looked at the Great Desolate Goddess Nuwa to say, “If you dare to kill Yi Ping then I will kill myself in front of you!”
The Great Desolate Goddess Nuwa lifted her gaze at Youxue as she said coldly, “Is that a threat? Sadly, it won’t works on me!”
Yi Ping looked at Lingfeng and Youxue…
They looked at each other; it seemed that time had completely stood still for them!
To the others, it seemed like just a blink of an eye had passed when Yi Ping had nodded to them but to them, in that single moment they had already recounted all their memories together and had reached a consensus!
