The chanting became increasingly passionate, and the difficult ancient spell became clearer.

Several people couldn't help but come out of the hall, looked up and couldn't take their eyes off.

A water-blue halo drew the concentrated spiritual energy around her, and her off-white dress, still marked by burns, fluttered gently in the night breeze. Cool moonlight pierced through the layers of dark clouds, falling on her beautiful face, making the person reciting seem ethereal and divine.

Gradually, the surrounding raindrops began to be controlled, becoming smaller and lighter, until they dwindled to a continuous drizzle that fell into the streets and alleys. The soft blue, imbued with the spiritual power of pure water, cast a faint halo of light in the capital city, which housed tens of thousands of people.

The flying insect shadows in the air stiffened when they touched the rain and fell straight to the ground. They were quickly devoured and assimilated by the spiritual power on the ground and eventually turned into nutrients for the soil.

"Such skillful chanting technique..." Tao Yao's eyes flashed with a hint of nostalgia.

"The last time I heard such a clear and bright voice was thousands of years ago... when the King and Queen offered sacrifices."

Zhang Qiyan watched for a long time and then suddenly turned and left. Su Tingyu knew what she was going to do and followed her.

Tao Yao looked away reluctantly, "I'll go and help too."

After a few people left, only Wang You and Si Huangzhao were left at the scene.

Si Huangzhao looked up at the figure standing upright in the hall, chanting with eyes closed, and felt a surge of emotion in his heart, "Before, I always felt that I would probably have to live under the shadow of my father for the rest of my life."

"When I woke up, I didn't feel relieved. I even felt a sense of despair."

Si Huangxu died. The man who ruled the entire Qingzhou for a hundred years finally returned to dust.

This thing he had been looking forward to for more than 50 years finally came true, but when he actually returned to his body, he felt at a loss.

The incompatible body, the impending destruction of the capital, the chaotic Gu worm incident, and the many soldiers who became victims of Si Huangxu's selfish desires...

He was too ashamed to face all this.

Si Huangzhao retracted his gaze, raised his hand, and bowed respectfully to the man on the roof again.

"Our Royal Company will always remember this kindness."

Wang You looked at the hair that was gradually turning white from the ends, and his eyes became darker.

He shouldn't have interfered.

This is her experience and also her choice.

He has no right to interfere.

Si Huangzhao was deeply moved, but when he looked up after paying his respects, he realized that there was no one around him.

"Seventh Prince."

Guards in civilian clothes, spears in hand, hurried over. "We've already applied the powder as you instructed. Now only the brothers who went to Huayueji have yet to report back."

"Yeah." Si Huangjing held the horse with one hand and looked towards the direction of the palace. He looked for a long time before slowly speaking, "Did you hear a sound?"

"what?"

The guard shielded his head from the rain with one hand and looked in that direction, but he obviously couldn't see anything unusual, so he guessed with a confused look on his face, "Your Highness is worried about His Majesty?"

Si Huangjing didn't reply, but turned around and looked at these people, "You just said that there are still people from Huayueji who haven't returned yet?"

The guard was confused as to how his prince seemed to be in a good mood. "That's right."

"Let's go and see for ourselves."

"Yes."

Time passed minute by minute, and the dawn sun was rising faintly on the horizon.

The sacrificial light gradually dimmed, and the fine rain slowly stopped.

After a night of sacrifice, the overdrawn spiritual power has almost reached its limit.

But it's cool.

Shen Qiao opened his eyes and looked at the morning scenery at the limit of his vision. He was fascinated for a moment.

It turns out that a scene more beautiful than fireworks...has always been around us.

She chuckled and shook her head, then raised her numb hands again and completed the last step of the sacrifice.

His spiritual power was completely exhausted, and even his realm dropped from the original fifth level of Xitian Realm to the early stage of the fourth level.

The demigod state was completely shattered, and his black hair suddenly turned silver-white.

My throat tasted like rust, but it wasn't bad enough to make me spit blood. The water spirit energy around me dissipated as the ceremony ended, and my vision blurred for a moment, causing me to lose my balance and fall to my knees.

"Fortunately, fortunately...it's finally finished...otherwise, this pretense would never be finished."

Not wanting to move for the time being, she simply sat on the roof and waited to watch the sunrise.

"You're quite generous."

Chi Musheng revealed his spirit form at some point and sat beside her.

Shen Qiao was too lazy to turn around and look, nor did he want to speak. He just smiled helplessly and sent her a message, "She exposed these things about the human race at this time, just to ask me to solve it. If I sit back and do nothing, wouldn't it be a waste of her 'kindness'?"

"That's true. But what should we do next?" Although Chi Musheng said it seriously, he sat very relaxed with his hands behind his back.

"It's true that you've dropped a level, and her goal has been achieved. I dare say that in your current situation, facing her, you're no different from giving her away for free."

"Let's go and see." Shen Qiao yawned unconsciously.

"Even if I die, I will take her with me. I can't let her stay in the world of the living any longer."

"So why didn't you let him help you just now? At least that way you wouldn't have to spend so much energy."

Shen Qiao squinted slightly because of the sunlight. Because her arms were sore, she raised her hands slowly to block the sunlight, and looked at the light pouring into her eyes through her fingers.

"I owe him enough for his kindness."

Chi Musheng chuckled, "He probably doesn't mind being owed a few favors by you."

Shen Qiao was silent for a moment, then turned around and gave him a look of confusion.

Chi Musheng lowered his eyes and looked at her for a moment. Seeing her puzzled expression, he finally said nothing more. "You are his disciple now, so he naturally wants to protect you."

"Then I don't want his help." Shen Qiao looked away and lay down.

"How can I always rely on him? Besides, according to what he said, he and I were born at the same time. Now that I have reincarnated several times, I have to ask him to take care of everything. How embarrassing!"

"Species"... Only she could describe the "Three Gods of Creation" in this way.

Chi Musheng's mouth twitched, "Okay, okay, you stubborn little brat."

"But this is fine." She stood up, bent slightly, stretched out a hand to Shen Qiao, and pretended to pull her up.

"As expected of my reincarnation. I like your personality."

Shen Qiao looked at the hand she stretched out in front of him, and without hesitation, he shook it firmly. "What a coincidence, I also like your style."

She stood up with Chi Musheng's hand, showing a sly smile.

"Especially when you so readily gave me your ashes."

Chi Musheng laughed unhappily and said, "That was originally intended to help you break through the realm, but you gave it all up and your realm dropped."
