Chapter 2674 - 892: Children, the Brightest Light Is Born in the Darkest Hour (Big Shush)
As Triss helped LiWen to her feet, she used Spiritual Energy to rearrange the ritual items around them back into their proper places, and she whispered:
"Do you plan to protect her for your whole life?"
"I don’t think that’s what you really want to ask, you lascivious Vampire Duke."
Though LiWen was not truly a Dragon Lady, she indeed had a heart as pure as that of a legendary Dragon Lady, and could keenly discern the true intent hidden beneath people’s words. As she adjusted her body’s condition in response to Triss’s inquiry, she said with a smirk:
"Many people are curious about my relationship with Biqi, especially those gossiping foreigners who are keen to discuss unseemly things in Torrent Castle, leading to various rumors about me and Biqi spreading everywhere.
But they can’t understand the pure friendship between girls.
Furthermore, if I hadn’t met Biqi when I was young, I would have probably been sold to the city of the Shadow Elves by human traffickers. Staying by her side as her shadow is not just because she is my friend.
Biqi and the Eleville Family are my true benefactors."
"Oh, pure friendship, is it?"
Triss said with a stern face:
"But how come I’ve heard that you two are so close you sleep together at night, and hold hands whenever you go out, and some even say they’ve seen you kissing... Is this also pure friendship between girls? So is it that as an old woman, I can’t keep up with the new interpretation of friendship, or have you been seeking to change the nature of your friendship?
You know, I can hear the words of the heart with these ears, right?
LiWen, there’s no need to hide these things from me, I won’t laugh at you two, I also have friends like yours."
"Even if you say it through the heavens it’s still friendship!"
LiWen, slightly agitated but still in poor condition, refuted pointedly:
"Don’t use your dirty thoughts to speculate on the way Biqi and I get along. Are you here to help summon the Divine Spirit to descend, or are you here to gossip? Aren’t you, as the Bloodline Duke, too idle? If you truly can’t help, wouldn’t it be better for you to go out now and unleash a few unparalleled moves on the battlefield to ease the pressure on the soldiers?"
"Hmm, someone is agitated, but I won’t say who."
Triss snorted, ceasing to provoke LiWen further and instead helped her re-activate the communication ritual with the Divine Spirit.
For mortal believers, trying to communicate with the Divine Spirit is incredibly difficult, nearly impossible; otherwise, the feats of the saints would not be so rare and precious in history. But God’s Chosen are a different matter.
Someone like Huggesen can connect with The Master of Hunting’s Divine Kingdom even in dreams, having the audacity that only beloved by the spirits possess.
LiWen is not truly a Holy Spirit’s Chosen; at best, she’s a reserve Dragon Lady. But the fact is, in this area far from the Kalem Ancient Country, LiWen is the sole representative of the Star Realm Dragon, and her interactions and communications with the Holy Spirit have been more frequent than those Eastern Dragon Sons and Dragon Ladies.
At this moment, with the ritual being restarted, the weakened LiWen quickly received Ao’s response again in just a few minutes.
"The arrogance of the Evil God has reached such a point that a clear response is necessary! I can once again cast down the Fire of World’s Purification upon this realm, but you... LiWen, have you considered the consequences of doing so?"
Ao’s majestic and divine voice echoed in LiWen’s mind.
For the Divine Spirit to ask so seriously signifies that the outcome of LiWen bearing the Divine Power again would not be favorable.
As the best theologian on the Continent, Triss had already given her answer; once this second Fire of World’s Purification descends, it will be the moment LiWen vanishes into smoke, though her soul is more likely to be carried by Ao into the Divine Kingdom.
This is the ultimate fate for all Dragon Sons and Dragon Ladies, and the glorious end for all God’s Chosen on the Continent.
This is probably the "employment benefit" of being a formally ordained God’s Chosen, achieving a form of immortality through faith. Why else would believers strive to become God’s Chosen?
The role is not only honorable but also truly profitable.
Unfortunately, when the Divine Spirits choose their Chosen, they don’t host a recruitment fair; whether you can become chosen is generally determined as soon as you become a believer, making it more about talent than performance.
LiWen falls into the category of having some talent, but not high enough.
If it weren’t for the unexpected factor of Murphy appearing in Transylvania, she might never have been able to establish such a close relationship with the Eastern Holy Spirit in her lifetime.
She knows this well.
But facing the Holy Spirit’s inquiry, LiWen didn’t hesitate much, nor did she hide her private thoughts at this moment, saying frankly:
"The one I swore to protect since childhood is now on that dangerous battlefield. The Master of Hunting is trying to sully my intimate friend... my soul mate, with its filthy destructive intent! Sure, there is the pursuit of victory in performing this dangerous act at this moment, but more importantly, it is to fulfill my oath.
I won’t allow malice to harm her, even if it means sacrificing my life!
Please bestow your great power, Holy Dragon, I shall wield the fire of purification for you, to completely and eternally expel the Evil God from this land of the righteous."
"What a pure heart of protection!"
Ao exclaimed:
"Had you been born in the East, you would accomplish great deeds, but this dusk is a moment of miracles for mortals, so LiWen, I shall watch you step onto this Path of Purification.
