Chapter 169 I Forge a Divine Weapon with My Bones
Hearing Taoyao's words, Xiluo's cheeks suddenly flushed.
She quickly turned her head away, as if she didn't dare to continue looking at Tao Yao.
She felt extremely embarrassed by having her secrets revealed, and even her breathing became disordered.
All the thoughts that troubled me at night were now revealed by Tao Yao's words.
Feiying and Wuwangyi already lowered their heads and remained silent.
The heat waves from the crater blew their hair, but could not cover up the waves in their hearts.
Everyone's expression was filled with complex emotions, and that indescribable feeling spread in the air.
"Xiao Feiying, maybe I did take advantage of you."
Taoyao's voice was still so gentle, with unquestionable firmness:
"But I can guarantee one thing: you are the only one who is irreplaceable to me."
"I will never, ever hurt you."
“That will never change.”
“No matter what happens, this commitment will not change.”
Hearing this, Feiying felt even more ashamed.
She lowered her head, her long red hair covering her face, but it couldn't hide the guilt surging in her heart.
One fact kept echoing in her mind.
Taoyao knew everything but never pointed it out.
But my trust was shaken by those last few words.
Once again, doubt after doubt...
"Taoyao...I..."
Feiying's voice was choked and she could hardly utter a complete sentence.
Tears welled up in my eyes and the words I wanted to explain were stuck in my throat.
The forget-me-nots are not in much better shape.
She bit her lower lip, her eyes were slightly red, and her shoulders were shaking slightly.
I thought to myself that I had actually doubted Taoyao because of what Zhongmo said.
The feeling of self-blame almost overwhelmed her.
How ridiculous last night's dream seems now, and how inappropriate those wavering thoughts are.
Tao Yao looked at the two regretful girls with a gentle smile on her face.
The firelight reflected on her face, adding a bit of warmth to the smile:
"Okay, is there anything else you want to ask? Just say it out loud, don't keep it in your heart."
Feiying and Forget-me-not shook their heads at the same time, with tears in their eyes.
All those doubts I once had seem so insignificant at this moment.
"I'm sorry, Taoyao..."
Feiying was the first to apologize, her voice full of apology, as if she wanted to pour out all her guilt:
"I shouldn't have doubted your..."
"I'm really sorry. You were so nice to me, but I..."
"I'm sorry, Taoyao's mother..." Forget-me-not also apologized, his voice filled with tears.
Tears welled up in her eyes. "I... I really regret it... I actually believed those words. I was so stupid..."
"it does not matter."
Tao Yao gently touched their heads, her gesture full of love:
“It’s normal to have doubts.”
"What's important is that you chose to trust me and asked me directly. This courage and trust is the most precious."
The hot wind from the crater blew their hair, as if soothing the waves in their hearts.
The sound of the rolling magma seemed to become gentle at this moment.
It added a touch of warmth to the scene of reconciliation.
This warm atmosphere lasted for a moment, until Forget-me-not suddenly raised his head as if he had thought of something, with tears in his eyes:
"Mom Taoyao, so this is all the conspiracy of the end? Is she deliberately trying to alienate our relationship?"
Taoyao nodded slightly.
"Um......"
She looked at the roiling lava in the distance and continued speaking slowly.
“I’m just glad she didn’t make it.”
There was a hint of relief in Tao Yao's voice, and a gentle smile still appeared on her face.
"Although this was indeed an elaborate trap, you still chose to trust me in the end. This trust is more precious than anything else."
"That......"
Forget-me-not's voice was trembling a little, and his eyes were full of panic and anxiety.
She clutched the corner of her clothes tightly, terrified at the thought of that terrible possibility.
"If we really fell into her trap... and really obeyed her wishes..."
She didn't dare to think about it any further, as the consequences made her feel scared.
Tao Yao looked at them tenderly, the firelight reflected on her calm face:
"That's your choice, too. I will respect whatever decision you make."
"Because this is your will, your true choice in your heart."
“I don’t blame you for any of your decisions.”
Tao Yao spoke slowly, with deep tolerance in her voice.
"Taoyao, what should we do next?"
Feiying spoke eagerly, worry and anxiety flashing in her eyes.
"She trapped us here, and now we have uncovered her plot."
She will definitely take action. How can we break it? How can we get out of here?"
A series of questions came out of her mouth, revealing her inner anxiety.
Tao Yao looked at the boiling magma. The rolling sound of the magma set off her serious tone:
"We have tried every possible way out, from forcing our way through the barrier to looking for an exit, but all ended in failure."
"So now, there is only one way left for us..."
Following Taoyao's slow and unhurried words.
All the girls' eyes were on her.
Waiting for that crucial answer.
There was a suffocating tension in the air; even the heat waves from the crater seemed to grow heavier.
Tao Yao raised a confident smile, and her tone suddenly became brisk and powerful:
"The way out is simple."
"One of them is to beat her."
"Although the hope is slim, if we can defeat her here, at this moment, then these problems will naturally not be a problem."
The girls were stunned at first.
Then a light flashed in Feiying's eyes, and her little fists clenched unconsciously.
The power of the flower of fire surged in her body, causing the temperature around her to rise a little:
"It's long overdue! I've been annoyed with that stinky fart for a long time."
"We must defeat her this time and let her know how powerful we are! We will never let her have the chance to sow discord again!"
However, in this energetic atmosphere.
Forget-me-not keenly captured the details in Taoyao's words.
Her brows furrowed slightly, and there was obvious worry in her voice:
"Wait... Taoyao's mother? You said here? At this time? Could it be that..."
There was hesitation and confusion in her voice, as if she realized something.
Tao Yao walked slowly to the top of the crater and looked towards the foot of the mountain.
The scorching heat blew her long hair, and the smile on her face became meaningful:
"Yes, we don't have time to continue preparing."
"Because her plan has now failed."
"If I'm not mistaken, she's about to flip the table!"
As Taoyao's voice fell.
A heart-pounding aura suddenly spread in the air.
The space in the distance distorted slightly, and a familiar and disturbing figure slowly emerged in the distortion.
The girl of the end who made everyone uneasy appeared in front of the girls.
……
The appearance of the End Girl made the air freeze instantly.
The originally warm atmosphere was replaced by a suffocating sense of oppression, and even the sound of magma rolling in the crater became particularly harsh.
The girls almost instinctively took a defensive stance, and everyone stared nervously at the disturbing figure.
Feiying clenched her fists, and the power of the fire flower surged rapidly in her body, causing the temperature around her to rise a few degrees.
Her long red hair moved without wind, as if ready to burst out at any time.
Forget-me-not took a step back vigilantly and instinctively moved closer to Taoyao, his eyes constantly shifting between Zhongmo and Taoyao, afraid of missing any subtle movements.
Hilo remained in a posture ready to strike at any time.
Those sharp eyes stared at the end without blinking, as if calculating the best time to attack.
Violet and Silver Moon also had vigilance in their eyes and did not dare to relax for even a moment.
However, unlike the nervous girls, Taoyao's expression remained relaxed and natural.
She looked at the end in front of her with a smile on her face, the smile was gentle and calm, as if she was facing an old friend.
There was even a hint of ridicule in her tone:
"How is it? It seems your calculation was wrong."
"They don't seem as disappointed in me as you think."
"You proposed a game to test human nature, but you lost in the end. Is this the result you didn't expect?"
Finally, he walked forward slowly, and every step seemed to carry some invisible sense of oppression.
Her long skirt swayed gently in the wind, and her footsteps were particularly clear in this space.
He didn't stop until he was about twenty steps away from them. There was no emotion in his deep eyes, which were like a pool of stagnant water.
"It doesn't matter, you're just taking advantage."
The final voice was still so calm, with a chilling indifference.
"This doesn't mean that they don't have evil deep down in their hearts."
"Human nature is inherently complex, and superficial choices do not represent the true inner reality."
"Besides, I am the end. For me, even if there are some mistakes in the process, the result is the same."
Her tone suddenly turned cold. "I told you that you must leave them. This will never change."
"You should also know that you can't defeat me while they are intact."
As soon as he finished speaking, he slowly stretched out his hand.
There was a sudden ripple in the air.
A long sword emitting an ominous aura appeared out of thin air.
It was the Sword of Doom that was forged in front of the girls.
The black aura flowing on the sword was like a living thing, making people shudder. That aura seemed to be able to devour all light.
Seeing the sword appear, the girls' expressions became more alert.
Feiying and Forget-me-not almost subconsciously took a step forward, trying to stand in front of Taoyao.
Shiloh's eyes became sharper, and the weapon in his hand was ready, ready to deal with any possible battle at any time.
The tension in the air was almost solidified.
"I can't afford it!"
Taoyao still maintained that calm smile.
Such a development seemed to be completely within Taoyao's expectations.
There was nothing unexpected about it.
For the so-called end.
