Breaking this fallen old world and building a magnificent new world was easier by saying. In fact, it was the most significant task for "world." On the other hand, it had always been the most important thing for the people in this world. Hence, regardless of destroying the old or building the new, it had become the most remarkable event.
The most important thing was always the most difficult one to be done. What the Abbey Dean did, no one had done before. The same thing happened to Ning Que. Few years ago, Lian Sheng only had this simple yet gruesome thought, but he had never taken any practical action. Despite being well prepared, he had no idea how to commence the task.
Indeed, he had been preparing for many years. The years he spent was a big part of his lifespan. But, it was ironically lacking for him to carry out the grand mission of destroying the world. And eventually, he did not make a firm decision. It was because god represented the old world was now in his embrace.
The perishing of the old world meant definite death for Sangsang. Since many years ago, they had been discussing about this question. However, they could not find an alternative way to solve it. Therefore, they had been loving and fighting each other till now.
Save the world with Sangsang's death? Ning Que would not do that. If he was moral madman or someone who killed for righteousness, he would not have escaped while he carried the severely ill Sangsang with his hands drenched in the blood of the innocents.
He remembered a famous poem from that world.
"Life is dear, love is dearer. Yet, both can be given up for freedom."
If it was Jun Mo, he would surely give up his life for freedom, while Ke Haoran had already given it up. If for Ye Hongyu, she would definitely give up her love for freedom and Lian Sheng had already done that.
However, Ning Que did not want to sacrifice any of them. He had always been a greedy and shameless man. To be more precise, he was stingy. Stuck in his mind was another famous poem from the world.
"Is it possible that I can do both, to not disappoint the Buddha and my love."
Except the real compassionate monks from Lanke Temple, he was similar with Second Brother, not having any interest in Buddhism at all. And hence, the word "Buddha" in this poem had to be changed to "human world."
How can I not disappoint both the human world and Sangsang? Ning Que had no idea.
Sangsang was lying in his arms. Suddenly, she extended her arms to hug him. She hugged him tightly. The golden dust exuded from the body and the faint silhouette intertwined with the two bodies. For this moment, it was impossible to separate them.
A ray of warm energy entered Ning Que's body. His Psyche Power was initiated. Via the Core Vajra of the Array in his hand, it was spread to the entire human world from Chang'an.
"Let's try. It may be successful," Sangsang leaned against his chest and said with her eyes shut.
Just like many other times, no matter if they were at Min Mountain, City of Wei, Chang'an, and West-Hill, no matter if she was a servant or Haotian, she was always the final decision maker.
She had made up her mind. But today, Ning Que was no longer obedient as before.
"You will die." Sangsang shut her eyes and replied calmly, "You have been staying by my side for many years. That is more than sufficient."
After a brief silence, Ning Que said, "Do you not fear?"
Sangsang answered with a slight tremor in her voice, "I am frightened."
