Chapter 90: Renewal Ceremony
Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and the entire Tushan was immersed in an inexplicable silence. Under the bitter love tree, Xiaoqi and Wang Quanzui's fusion continued. The black demonic power intertwined and collided with Wang Quanzui's originally pure spiritual power, and finally gradually merged into one, forming an unprecedented strange energy.
Tushan Honghong on the side held her breath and waited. Even she had never seen such a fusion that could subvert the rules of the Bitter Love Tree.
Finally, when the last trace of black demonic power was completely absorbed, although Wang Quanzui's appearance did not change much, her aura had undergone a drastic change. It was as if the boundary between human and demon had become blurred in her body.
"It actually worked..."
After opening his eyes again, Wang Quanzui regained control of his body. This was also the result of Xiaoqi's initiative to give up control, because she would still be the one to take the lead in the future relationship.
Tushan Honghong stared at Wang Quanzui, and a slight fluctuation flashed in her fiery red eyes. She could see that the girl in front of her was no longer a simple human being, but a special being that had merged with the soul of the black fox. This made her see another possibility of renewing their relationship in another life.
"I wonder if I can continue my relationship with him now?"
Wang Quanzui stood under the bitter love tree in a new posture, looking at Tushan Honghong with a firm gaze, waiting for her reply.
Tushan Honghong pondered for a moment, and finally nodded slowly: "Your situation is indeed unprecedented. According to the rules of the Bitter Love Tree, if a human and a demon truly love each other, they can continue their relationship under the Bitter Love Tree. Although you are also a human, you have merged the soul of a black fox, which can be regarded as a special form of 'demon'. Therefore, you meet the basic conditions for continuing the relationship."
"But," Tushan Honghong changed the subject, her expression becoming serious, "I want to remind you that your situation is special, and it's hard to say whether the Great Tree of Bitterness will agree to the continuation of your relationship. Even if the continuation is successful, the outcome is unpredictable. Once you embark on this path, there is no turning back. Are you sure you want to do this?"
"I'm sure. No matter what the outcome is, I'm willing to bear it. As long as it gives my brother a chance to continue living, I'm willing to give everything."
Wang Quanzui did not hesitate at all, with a determined light flashing in his eyes.
Upon hearing this, Tushan Honghong sighed softly, as if she was moved by Wang Quanzui's deep affection.
"In that case, then follow me. I will be a witness to your continuation of relationship."
After saying that, Tushan Honghong turned around and went straight to the Bitter Love Tree.
Wang Quanzui followed closely behind, looking at the giant bitter tree that was getting closer and closer, and she began to get nervous, because she knew that what happened next would determine her future with Dongfang Tianyu.
Under the bitter love tree, the light is soft, as if it can see into the deepest emotions of people. Tushan Honghong stood under the tree, gently clasped her hands together, closed her eyes and whispered, as if communicating with the bitter love tree.
After Wang Quanzui landed, he put Dongfang Tianyu on the ground, and then followed Xiaoqi's instructions to remove his hypnosis.
Dongfang Tianyu slowly opened his eyes, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, but when he saw Wang Quanzui's face, he was stunned.
"Junior sister?"
He called softly, with a hint of uncertainty and trembling in his voice.
"Brother, it's me..."
In order to preserve Dongfang Tianyu's last glimmer of life, Wang Quanzui had to let his consciousness fall into a deep sleep. When he heard his voice again, Wang Quanzui's tears welled up in an instant.
Dongfang Tianyu felt the warmth coming from his palm, and gradually recalled what happened before. He subconsciously felt his own state and immediately realized something.
"Junior sister, why are you doing this?"
Looking at the scarred Wang Quanzui in front of him, Dongfang Tianyu knew that she must have gone through countless hardships in order to bring him back.
Wang Quanzui heard this and shook his head fiercely: "No matter what, I also want my brother to continue living!"
Wang Quanzui said this in a loud voice, not giving Dongfang Tianyu any chance to refute. Dongfang Tianyu looked at her, with complex emotions flashing in his eyes, including touching, distressed, and a hint of indescribable feelings.
"Junior sister, I understand your intentions. But some things cannot be forced."
Dongfang Tianyu's words referred not only to his dilapidated body, but also to the feelings between them.
When Wang Quanzui heard this, her eyes suddenly turned red, but she raised her head and stubbornly refused to let the tears fall.
"Brother, do you know where this is?"
After calming down for a moment, Wang Quanzui looked at Dongfang Tianyu again and asked with a forced smile.
Hearing this, Dongfang Tianyu looked around with great effort until he saw Tushan Honghong praying nearby.
"Could this be Tushan?"
Dongfang Tianyu looked at the giant bitter tree not far away and asked uncertainly.
"Yes, this is Tushan, and the tree in front of us is the legendary love tree that can allow humans and monsters to renew their past relationship."
While Wang Quanzui was explaining to Dongfang Tianyu, he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
"Junior sister, are you talking about renewing the relationship in another life? This ritual can only be completed by humans and demons who are in love, and since we are both humans, we cannot complete this ritual."
Dongfang Tianyu immediately saw through Wang Quanzui's purpose, and there was a hint of bitterness in his words.
"Even if we can't continue our relationship, I still want to bring my brother to worship under this bitter love tree. If it really has a spirit, maybe we can meet it again in the next life."
In order to let Dongfang Tianyu feel at ease to continue his relationship with him, Wang Quanzui did not tell him the truth, but instead used a more ideal statement.
"If we really have a next life, I hope that the first person I meet will be you, Junior Sister."
Dongfang Tianyu felt really distressed when he saw her forcing a smile, so he continued speaking along with what she said.
After hearing this, Wang Quanzui finally showed a sincere smile on his face: "In this case, let's use your Broken Soul as a token of love for our reincarnation."
After saying that, she took out the scabbard she gave to Dongfang Tianyu from her storage bag and placed it in front of the two of them.
Seeing Wang Quanzui's serious expression, Dongfang Tianyu did not interrupt her after all. He just listened silently to her reciting the oath of reincarnation and continuation of their relationship.
"Oh, great tree of bitterness, I, King Quanzui, swear with all my demonic power to meet Dongfang Tianyu in the next life."
After Wang Quanzui made the oath, his gaze immediately turned to Dongfang Tianyu. What would happen to the two of them was almost entirely up to him.
"I would like to..."
To Wang Quanzui's surprise, Dongfang Tianyu accepted the oath without much hesitation.
