"Master, do you think I should accept it?" Ye Hongyi asked.
"Do you want it?" Gu Changsheng asked in return.
"It's a Celestial King weapon. Although I can't use it now, it seems like Zhiyue doesn't have a handy weapon," Ye Hongyi didn't answer directly, but her words indicated that she wanted it.
"If you want it, then take it. I want to see who dares to cause you trouble after you reveal your identity," Gu Changsheng responded casually, but when he heard that Bai Zhiyue didn't have a handy weapon, his tone became strange.
"Hehe, thank you, Master."
Ye Hongyi didn't notice anything amiss. After acting spoiled for a while, she said to Celestial King Yunhai, "In that case, then I thank Celestial King Yunhai."
Celestial King Yunhai's eyes lit up upon hearing this. With a wave of his hand, the Light-Dark Celestial Sword arrived in front of Ye Hongyi, saying, "I have severed my connection with the Light-Dark Sword. It is currently in an unowned state. Fairy Hongyi can establish a new connection with it at any time."
Ye Hongyi gently shook her head and said, "Since Celestial King Yunhai has already gifted it to me, would you mind if I give it away?"
Celestial King Yunhai was taken aback, but then said, "The Light-Dark Sword is already yours, Fairy Hongyi. You can give it to whomever you want; it's entirely up to you."
Ye Hongyi nodded and contacted Bai Zhiyue mentally. Bai Zhiyue's figure soon appeared in the hall.
"Young Mistress, what is it?"
Bai Zhiyue glanced at the unfamiliar Celestial King Yunhai, wondering if this guy dared to cause trouble again.
"Zhiyue, what do you think of this celestial sword?"
Ye Hongyi asked.
Only then did Bai Zhiyue notice the Light-Dark Celestial Sword floating in front of Ye Hongyi, and a hint of surprise flashed in her beautiful eyes.
"Not bad!" she said.
She used to have a Celestial King weapon, and it was even a celestial metal, but... it was blown up a million years ago, sob!
As for who blew it up, it goes without saying.
"If you like it, I'll give it to you," Ye Hongyi waved her hand, and the Light-Dark Celestial Sword, which she hadn't even touched, came to Bai Zhiyue.
"Give it to me?" Bai Zhiyue was stunned.
Ye Hongyi nodded and said, "That's right, Zhiyue, don't you not have a handy weapon? I think this sword suits your temperament quite well."
"Then thank you, Young Mistress."
Bai Zhiyue didn't stand on ceremony and directly accepted the Light-Dark Celestial Sword. She stretched out her fair hand and held the hilt of the sword, immediately feeling a sense of familiarity.
"Huh!"
Bai Zhiyue exclaimed in surprise. She didn't expect this sword to actively want to acknowledge her as its master.
"It seems this sword likes you very much," Ye Hongyi said in surprise. The Light-Dark Celestial Sword's feeling of liking couldn't be hidden at all; even she could feel it.
"Maybe it's related to my identity," Bai Zhiyue said. Her true form was a White Jade Kirin, which represented auspiciousness. What is auspiciousness? It is a type of luck; otherwise, she wouldn't have become the guardian beast of the Holy Emperor Palace.
Celestial swords have spirits and naturally like auspiciousness.
The most depressed person was still Celestial King Yunhai. Although he had completely planned to give the Light-Dark Sword away, he was still a little depressed to see the Light-Dark Sword so easily and actively acknowledging its master.
I'm not dead yet; is there a need to be so anxious?
However, seeing his old partner meet a beloved master was also a happy thing.
After Bai Zhiyue put away the Light-Dark Celestial Sword, she glanced at Yunhai, who was white-haired and exuded an aura of death, and learned some information from the Light-Dark Sword.
"What a pity."
Bai Zhiyue shook her head. Even peerless celestial medicine would be useless to Celestial King Yunhai.
"Don't worry, since I have accepted the Light-Dark Celestial Sword, as long as I don't die, I will protect your descendants," Bai Zhiyue said to him.
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist!" Celestial King Yunhai was overjoyed. He could feel that even in his prime, he was probably no match for Bai Zhiyue. With such a strong person protecting them, as long as his descendants didn't seek death, they could be worry-free for ten thousand generations. Moreover, his grandson, Yun Chuan, would definitely surpass him in the future. As long as he waited for Yun Chuan to grow up, his enemies would be nothing to fear.
Bai Zhiyue nodded and then stood beside Ye Hongyi.
At this time, Celestial King Yunhai said to Ye Hongyi, "Fairy Hongyi, I have a second gift."
"Oh?" Ye Hongyi revealed a hint of surprise. Celestial King Yunhai had even given her a Celestial King weapon, and he still had a second gift. This gift must be more precious than a Celestial King weapon. Even celestial medicine couldn't compare; otherwise, it wouldn't be ranked after the Celestial King weapon.
"I wonder if Fairy Hongyi is interested in the origin of a Celestial King?"
Celestial King Yunhai asked.
"What?"
Celestial King Yuhua looked at Celestial King Yunhai in shock and asked, "Are you crazy? You want to give away your Celestial King origin? Don't you want to reincarnate?"
Even the Su family women looked at Celestial King Yunhai in shock.
The origin of a Celestial King is even more important than the divine soul. Even if the divine soul is shattered, as long as the origin is still there, one can be reincarnated, and there is even no mystery of the womb, which is equivalent to rebirth and cultivation.
But if the origin is gone, then the chance of reincarnation is completely cut off. They didn't expect Celestial King Yunhai to give his origin to Ye Hongyi.
This... why would he go so far?
Only Xiao Yi's eyes flickered constantly. He seemed to have guessed something.
"Celestial King Yunhai, why... why are you doing this?" Ye Hongyi didn't understand why Celestial King Yunhai was being so extreme towards her. If he wanted to protect his descendants, Zhiyue's promise just now was already enough, and if Zhiyue wasn't enough, she could just ask her master to help.
But Celestial King Yunhai actually wanted to give her his Celestial King origin; she couldn't understand it at all.
"To be honest, Fairy Hongyi, Yun Chuan is my grandson. His talent far exceeds mine back then. I hope Fairy Hongyi will take care of Yun Chuan in the future."
Celestial King Yunhai finally revealed his relationship with Yun Chuan, but he didn't say too much, but he knew that Ye Hongyi would understand.
Ye Hongyi naturally understood. In recent years, she had heard her junior brother talk a lot about Yun Chuan's changes. Even if she wasn't familiar with him, she had a general understanding of Yun Chuan.
However, she didn't expect Celestial King Yunhai to go to such lengths for Yun Chuan, even giving up the chance of reincarnation to pave the way for Yun Chuan.
Involuntarily, Ye Hongyi thought of those Supreme Ancient Emperors who launched dark turmoil in the mortal realm. In order to achieve longevity, they could even devour their closest blood relatives, but the Celestial King in front of her had a realm that was far too high compared to them. Logically speaking, he shouldn't value bloodlines too much, but now, he was like a dying grandfather, seeking a way out for his grandson who was working hard outside.
Leaving aside cultivation, just this point alone made him surpass countless living beings.
"I don't want your origin. Yun Chuan is my junior brother's friend, so he is naturally also my friend. It is only right for friends to help each other. If Yun Chuan finds out, I'm afraid it won't be good."
Ye Hongyi refused Celestial King Yunhai's origin.
Celestial King Yunhai was stunned by this. Obtaining his Celestial King origin wouldn't immediately make one a Celestial King, but it would definitely make one a Celestial being, and without any side effects. Such a temptation should be even greater than a Celestial King weapon, but he didn't expect Ye Hongyi to refuse.
"Thank you, Fairy Hongyi!"
Since Ye Hongyi refused, he didn't force it. This ending was not bad for him; at least he still had an afterlife.
Celestial King Yunhai left, and the Su family women hadn't recovered yet. Today, they saw a different Celestial King Yunhai.
The higher the cultivation, the more indifferent one becomes to bloodlines and life. This is inevitable. Even Gu Changsheng, in order to maintain his humanity, would actively do some things with evil intentions.
Celestial King Yunhai's ability to do this for Yun Chuan exceeded their imagination and understanding.
They asked themselves, would they give up the chance of reincarnation for their descendants?
They couldn't answer this question.
It was night.
Gu Changsheng stood on the pavilion, overlooking the entire Su family, and behind him, Ye Hongyi stood obediently.
"What's wrong? Something on your mind?" Gu Changsheng asked with a smile.
Ye Hongyi had been standing behind him for a long time without saying a word, so she naturally had something on her mind.
Ye Hongyi didn't act coyly. She said, "Master, don't you think it's a pity that a strong person with such humanity like Celestial King Yunhai is just going to die like that?"
Gu Changsheng turned around and gently flicked her forehead, saying, "You're so straightforward with others, but you're beating around the bush with me? Just say it directly, do you want me to take action?"
Ye Hongyi cried out and rubbed her forehead, pouting her lips, and said, "It hurts, Master."
Gu Changsheng chuckled. Could he not know if it hurt? But seeing Ye Hongyi acting spoiled, he was full of smiles.
Honghong is still good, she knows how to act spoiled. That rebellious disciple only knows how to scold me behind my back.
Seeing Gu Changsheng smiling so happily, Ye Hongyi couldn't help but step forward and play with her master's arm like she did when she was a child, saying, "Isn't the war in the Danqing Great World tense? I think this Celestial King Yunhai is quite good. If you save his life, he will definitely forget himself and fight for our mortal realm. If Senior Sister Houtu knew, she would be happy too. What do you think?"
"You!"
Gu Changsheng smiled, but he had to admit that he was really swayed by Ye Hongyi's words.
If he saved Yunhai, Honghong would be happy, and his wife Houtu would also be happy, then he would naturally be happy too. Everyone would be happy, so why not!
"Alright!"
Gu Changsheng nodded, and then his figure flashed, taking Ye Hongyi away from the Su family.
