This Is Not the Female Demon Lord I Remembered

Chapter 465: Only Fools Like Fools


"Over there... are you talking about the Void Creation Green Lotus?"

Zhu Shigu was not foolish; after a brief moment of contemplation, he had already guessed who was behind this.

The one who could overpower him without allowing any retaliation, casually controlling the power of the Void, and lastly, with that unique Life Rank suppression - thinking about who was on the other side of this channel, the answer was practically shouting itself.

Had he not guessed who was acting on the other side, with Zhu Shigu's temperament he would have long since returned to his original form, forcibly breaking into the Void to rescue them. Did you really think he has no temper at all?

Uncle Orange refrained from taking action precisely because he recognized this; he knew in his heart that Liang Yi and Su Youyi were not only unharmed but actually utterly safe.

The Void Creation Green Lotus, which had achieved the status of an Innate Divine Object for who knows how many years, was indeed a top-ranking existence in the entire epoch by strength, and even reached the peak of the Ninth Realm.

The reason it had always wandered within the Void was due to the cessation of the Immortal Path and the limitations of the Mystical Mechanism world.

Thus, those who surpassed the Seventh Realm either honestly hid in Secret Realms playing dead or ran off to roam the Void.

But now that the great world has already opened, these powerful beings have begun to return.

Since Liang Yi was able to cultivate the Qinglian Creation, the Void Creation Green Lotus would never be his enemy.

"Just wait, don't worry about Liang Yi and them, your matter Liang Yi certainly won't forget, meow."

Uncle Orange yawned and directly lay down at the root of the Eight Desolate Spirit Realm Bamboo and started to sleep soundly, benefiting from the Innate Spiritual Energy prevalent here.

As for that guy Liang Yi, he knew him too well; knowing that deep down, this guy is quite compassionate and would definitely try his best to help when he promises something.

"If something really happens, I would be even more anxious than you, meow."

When Zhu Shigu heard this, he could only helplessly retract his soul fragment into his body, pulling out the unfinished book to wait alongside Uncle Orange.

On the other side, Liang Yi tightly embraced his junior sister, trying to minimize the disorienting sensation brought about by the whirling surroundings.

Liang Yi also felt quite helpless; when he was being dragged by that force, he was naturally not compliant, but the strength of that force was something he had never known before. If there had to be a comparison, Liang Yi felt that only his Ninth Realm master could spare some efforts.

As for him, a mere Sixth Realm cultivator, he really had no way to resist.

"This time when we return, it's time to raise the rank."

Liang Yi felt the aura of the Mystical Mechanism world falling away, knowing in his heart that he was very likely no longer in the Mystical Mechanism world now.

As for the one who acted, when he had felt the familiar Conception in that force, he had already guessed the truth.

"Um... where is this?"

Su Youyi slowly straightened up from her senior brother's embrace, her gaze somewhat blurred and puzzled as she looked around; her memory still lingering on the scene where she was pulled into a crack in the Void.

Since Su Youyi was not part of the original plan, she was also exposed to the most significant impact of the spatial turbulence, passing out the moment she entered the crack. For her protection, Liang Yi had no choice but to just hold her.

"If I'm not mistaken, this place should be the Void."

Liang Yi looked around the boundlessly bright dark space, casually saying.

They were still being dragged by an invisible force, slowly being pulled towards an unknown place.

Upon hearing this, Su Youyi looked around; this was her first time entering the Void, and the scenery here was somewhat different from what she had imagined.

She had thought the Void was just a pitch-black space, filled with beasts transformed by the Power of Void and storms, among other dangers.

But in reality, though the space was pitch-black, it was also very bright, like light encapsulated by darkness, where everything was distinctly visible.

There were monstrous long fish, large as mountains, swallowing Big Sun and Void Energy, and seemingly calm void storms that erupted into terrifying waves upon approach. Su Youyi even saw a celestial body exploding, emitting endless light and heat; she couldn't be sure how any cultivator could survive such explosive impacts.

"So scary..."

It was only now that Su Youyi had a firsthand experience and understanding of the dangers of the Void.

"But what is this?"

Above the heads of the two closely embraced individuals, a blooming Qinglian emitted a luminescent glow enveloping them both.

Under this light, whether it was Void beasts or storms, all obediently avoided any collisions or offenses. So much so that the ordinarily perilous Void seemed more like a playground to Liang Yi and Su Youyi.

"The Void Creation Green Lotus, it was also the one that pulled us over."

After carefully ensuring his junior sister was indeed fine, Liang Yi slowly released his embrace and explained.

This was also his first time at the Void which looked somewhat like outer space from his previous life, however, this place was much more dangerous than the outer space of his past life.

"I see."

Su Youyi suddenly enlightened; no wonder she felt this power was so familiar.

"So that means, the place we are heading to now is where the Void Creation Green Lotus is located, right?"

"Yes, that's right! Although I don't know why it suddenly pulled us over, it must be with no ill intentions."

Liang Yi nodded, his gaze shifting towards the still endless darkness.

"But aren't you being too reckless?"

Seemingly recalling something suddenly, Liang Yi turned his head with some blame towards his junior sister,

"Not knowing anything about the situation inside the crack, you just followed along. What if it was a life-threatening dead end?"

Liang Yi truly felt a sense of dread inside. If the Creation Green Lotus had not assisted them the moment they arrived here, death would have been certain.

Even with the System, it couldn't turn him into an Immortal who controls time in the blink of an eye. If his junior sister really died here, Liang Yi couldn't even bear to think of the consequences.

"People... are also worried about you..."

Feeling that her senior brother was truly angry this time, Su Youyi felt somewhat guilty, and with her head lowered, she fiddled with her fingers, not daring to meet her senior brother's eyes.

Upon reflection, she realized that ever since childhood, her senior brother had only been angry a few times.

But each time, the reason was the same: she had recklessly put herself in danger.

"If senior brother was in danger and all I could do was stand by idly, what would be the point of my cultivation?"

Su Youyi became increasingly angered as she thought: clearly, she too was worried about her senior brother, and her strength was not inferior to his; she was not a burden, so why should she be scolded?

"All this hard training and sword practicing are precisely to protect and be by senior brother's side, isn't it?"

Seeing his junior sister, holding back tears, looking up at him with infinite grievances, Liang Yi's heart instantly melted.

After all, making his junior sister cry was his failure.

"Alright, alright. Seeing you rushing over so resolutely, your senior brother was moved to tears as well."

Liang Yi carefully cradled her tender and lovely face with both hands, gently wiping her tears with his thumbs as he spoke gently.

"Really?"

Su Youyi didn't believe it; she didn't think her senior brother looked like he was about to cry.

"Really! Shall I cry right here and now?"

Liang Yi put on an expression of profound sorrow, as if he was about to cry his heart out the next second.

"Ha ha... so ugly, I don't want to see it."

Su Youyi laughed heartily at her senior brother's funny face. After laughing, she grabbed Liang Yi's cheeks with both hands, lifting the corners of his mouth into a smile.

"Ah,"

Watching his junior sister finally laugh, Liang Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Pretending to cry was not true, but his emotion was genuine.

Who could remain unmoved when facing the unknown, having someone they love and who loves them rush resolutely to their side?

However, compared to his own emotions, Liang Yi's first concern was still for the safety of his junior sister.

"Fool..."

Liang Yi smiled bitterly and shook his head; both of them were fools whose hearts were full of nothing but each other, neglecting themselves.

"Senior brother, you are the fool, not me."

Su Youyi, unaware of what Liang Yi was thinking and assuming he was calling her foolish again, quickly pouted and crossed her arms in denial.

"Alright, alright, I'm the fool."

Liang Yi waved his hand in resignation, but the corners of his mouth quietly curled into a sly smile.

"Since I'm a fool, only a fool would love another fool."

"Oh, then I'm also a fool!"

Su Youyi suddenly realized and quickly nodded, acknowledging her own foolishness.

"A fool loves a fool."

Su Youyi first pointed at herself, then at Liang Yi.

"Fools fancy fools."

Liang Yi smiled, gestured at himself, and then pointed towards Su Youyi.

Su Youyi froze, her heart feeling as if fireworks were rising, or as if spring had returned and peach blossoms were blooming everywhere, an indescribable sense of happiness filling her heart.

Upon recovering, Su Youyi "pfft" hugged Liang Yi and buried her head back into his chest.

Even if in the vast Void it might just be the two of them, hearing such words suddenly made Su Youyi's face feel burning hot.

Liang Yi, feeling the fragile and trembling body in his arms, silently smiled and held her tighter.

In the tranquil Void, a Green Lotus slowly drifted, enveloping the two in its glow, holding each other close.

At this moment, their hearts were infinitely close, and both Liang Yi and Su Youyi had never been as serene as they were now; unbeknownst to them, the Primordial Cloud Scroll Immortal Technique that had reached a bottleneck quietly broke through.

Now, they had truly mastered this Immortal Technique!

But at this moment, they had no care for anything else but to wish for time to freeze like this forever, clinging to the warmth of this moment.

Amid the Void where the concept of time blurred, after how long it had been, a Giant Green Lotus, identical to the one in Liang Yi's Divine Soul, emerged in their vision.
