Yang Dingtian had thought about his reunion with Ximen Ningning countless times.
Some were good, some were bad, and there were all kinds of reunions!
However, when the real reunion came, it was completely different from what he imagined.
…
Yang Dingtian carefully placed his Naga baby girl in Violets's arms, and then directly turned into a stream of light and flew out of the Empire of Darkness.
In the process of shuttling through the dark matter, Yang Dingtian fantasized over and over again. What should Ximen Ningning look like at this time?
Naga were all unparalleled beauties, especially Medusa's Naga.
Therefore, the previous Ximen Ningning must have disguised herself.
Then, how beautiful would Ximen Ningning look?
But he didn't know why.
In Yang Dingtian's heart, Ximen Ningning's original appearance was the most beautiful.
Although the Ximen Ningning he saw before could only be considered to be above average in terms of beauty and couldn't be said to be extremely beautiful.
However, what Yang Dingtian loved the most was her gentle and delicate face.
"Whoosh …"
Yang Dingtian suddenly rushed out of the Empire of Darkness and came to the ground.
Not far in front of him, he suddenly saw a beautiful back that was familiar yet unfamiliar.
It was really familiar yet unfamiliar.
How many years had it been?
It had been a full ten years.
So, it seemed unfamiliar.
However, this figure had appeared countless times in his mind and dreams, so he was familiar with it.
"Sister Ningning," Yang Dingtian shouted.
The beautiful figure turned around. It was exactly the same as before, the same face as ten years ago.
It was still the quiet Beast Speaker in Cloud Sky City, aloof from worldly affairs.
"Little Tian …" Ximen Ningning's voice trembled, and a gentle and apologetic smile appeared on her face.
Yang Dingtian stepped forward and gently hugged her soft and delicate body into his arms.
Then, the two of them quietly smelled each other's scent.
After a long time, Yang Dingtian held Ximen Ningning's face and asked, "Sister Ningning, can you show me your real face now?"
Ximen Ningning said, "This is my real face."
Yang Dingtian was stunned. "Shouldn't Medusa Naga be at the tip of the beautiful pyramid?"
Ningning said angrily, "Are you saying I'm ugly?"
Yang Dingtian hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, I just find it strange.
However, you are the most beautiful in my heart. Instead, I'm afraid that you will be like your mother, so beautiful that people can't open their eyes. "
Ningning said, "Is it because you already have a Naga wife who is so beautiful that she can't open her eyes?"
Yang Dingtian was stunned for a moment before he whispered, "I'm sorry, Sister Ningning."
"Why are you apologizing?"
Ningning said, "Because you have married Naga Shuang and feel sorry for me. You feel that you have betrayed our feelings, right?"
Yang Dingtian nodded.
"Of course not."
Ximen Ningning said softly, "First of all, I know that you married Dugu Shuang 'er because you had no choice.
Secondly … I like you, and you like me. That's enough.
We, the spiritual Naga, don't care about this kind of thing. We prefer spiritual love. "
"Platonic love?" Yang Dingtian said.
"Is this a term from Earth?" Ningning said, "It sounds very nice."
Yang Dingtian was silent for a moment and said, "Sister Ningning, when did you know that I came from Earth?"
Ningning said, "What you want to ask is, did I know that you came from Earth when I first saw you?"
Yang Dingtian nodded.
"I didn't know."
Ningning said, "I told you that since I was born until I grew up, I was very repulsed by men's auras. I felt uncomfortable from a few feet away, so I lived in seclusion in the valley of Cloud Sky City.
But when you appeared, your aura made me very, very moved.
You know, the love of the Naga is decided in an instant.
And we don't look at the face, identity, or cultivation at all. We just rely on the smell.
When I feel that smell, I completely fall in love. "
Yang Dingtian said, "At that time, I thought it was strange. Why were you so good to me when you first saw me?"
"Because I was moved before I even saw you," Ningning said softly.
Ningning said softly, "But I know that a man who can move my heart is definitely not ordinary. It is very likely that he is the messenger of fate."
"Are you the messenger of fate?" Yang Dingtian asked.
"No, the messenger of fate of the God of Chaos," Ximen Ningning said.
Yang Dingtian understood Ningning's words and then asked, "On the day of the battle with Qin Shaobai, in order to save me, did you show your true form?"
Naga Shuang nodded and said, "You also know that although I am a spiritual-type Naga.
But because Mother is still alive, most of my energy is with her.
Apart from my spiritual power, I am not strong. When I was in human form, my cultivation was very low.
So, I had to show my true form. But when I showed my true form, my whole body was covered by a thick green fog. They didn't see that I was a Naga. "
Yang Dingtian said, "Then, you disappeared. Was it because Empress Medusa put you under house arrest?"
Ximen Ningning nodded and said, "I broke the rules again and again, and showing my true form was a big taboo. Mother couldn't bear it and called me back to house arrest."
Yang Dingtian said, "Then, then the Deep Sea Xuan Poison you gave me was not taken from a faraway place, but from your own body, right?"
Ximen Ningning nodded and said, "But, I had to go to a faraway place to find a way to force the Deep Sea Xuan Poison out of my body."
Yang Dingtian said, "And, at that time, your legs couldn't move at all, not because of the Deep Sea Xuan Poison, but because of the sequelae of forcing out the Deep Sea Xuan Poison, right?"
Ximen Ningning nodded again.
"Fool." Yang Dingtian couldn't help but hug Ximen Ningning again.
Spiritual Naga was really crazy about love. The Deep Sea Xuan Poison was the last life-saving thing of Naga. In order to help Yang Dingtian kill the Millennium Owl, she forced out her own Deep Sea Xuan Poison and gave it to Yang Dingtian.
However, at this moment, Yang Dingtian suddenly felt a burst of bitterness and sadness in his heart.
This was not his own feeling, but Naga Shuang's feeling.
Because he and Shuang 'er shared everything.
Shuang 'er didn't care much about the feelings of Yang Dingtian and his wives, but she cared a lot about Ximen Ningning because Ximen Ningning was also a Naga.
"Tell Shuang 'er that you and I only love each other spiritually, I won't take you away," Ximen Ningning suddenly said.
Yang Dingtian was stunned and said, "You, you can also read my mind?"
"Of course, I can do it a long time ago," Ximen Ningning said.
Suddenly, Yang Dingtian's heart was in a mess.
Now Yang Dingtian and Naga Shuang's hearts were connected, and Ximen Ningning could read Yang Dingtian's mind.
In this way, the spiritual relationship of the three people was in a mess.
The two people hugged each other quietly for a while.
Finally, Yang Dingtian broke the silence, because he still had to ask.
"Ningning, why did your mother ask you to come?" Yang Dingtian asked.
Ximen Ningning said, "It's just a message. Because of our special relationship, she felt that it might be useful for you to let me come and pass a message."
Yang Dingtian asked, "What message?"
Ximen Ningning said, "The vast majority of humans must die, and the cycle of destruction that occurs once every two hundred years must be carried out."
As soon as these words came out, Yang Dingtian's heart trembled, and then he said bitterly, "Ningning, is that what you think too?"
Ximen Ningning said softly, "No, I don't.
I only care about you, Yanyan, and your family.
I don't care about anything else.
Also, no matter what you do, I will support you.
I will agree to whatever you want me to do. "
Yang Dingtian was very moved.
Ximen Ningning said, "But Xiaotian, I can't change my mother's mind."
"I know." Yang Dingtian said, "This is between me and her."
Then, Yang Dingtian asked, "This time, will she use someone else's hand?"
Ximen Ningning shook her head and said, "No, she will do it herself this time.
Also, she is very angry. She feels that you have ruined her rhythm and plan. "
Queen Medusa was going to do it herself.
This should be the worst news possible.
At least, Yang Dingtian couldn't imagine how he could stop Queen Medusa.
Yang Dingtian asked, "Then what does Queen Medusa want me to do?"
Ximen Ningning said, "She said that you have to make up for what you have done wrong.
So, you can either go to New Naga and release the future Naga army to wipe out most of the humans.
Or, she will do it herself and wipe out most of the humans.
You can still control the former method.
Once she does it, it will be completely out of control. "
Yang Dingtian closed his eyes and shook his head. "Impossible, I will never do that."
"I know," Ximen Ningning said softly.
Yang Dingtian asked, "Then, when will Queen Medusa do it?"
Ximen Ningning said, "She has already done it. You will see it when you give a definite response."
Yang Dingtian asked, "Then she should have seen my response, right?"
Ximen Ningning nodded and said, "She knows everything that happened here and everything that we said."
Yang Dingtian's heart was twisted in pain.
Medusa's choice was very clear. Either Yang Dingtian did it himself, or Medusa did it herself.
In short, most of the humans had to die.
If Yang Dingtian chose to do it himself, fewer people would die.
If Medusa did it, more people would die.
Yang Dingtian gritted his teeth and said, "Why?
Why?
The humans didn't provoke her. Why must they die? "
Ximen Ningning said guiltily, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Xiaotian, I didn't know, I'm sorry!"
Yang Dingtian hugged her gently and said, "It has nothing to do with you. Although she is your mother, it has nothing to do with you."
Then, Yang Dingtian asked, "Ningning, do you know where your mother is?"
Ximen Ningning shook her head and said, "I don't know. In fact, I have never seen her."
Yang Dingtian was greatly surprised. Ximen Ningning was Medusa's daughter, but she had never seen her mother?
Ximen Ningning said, "In fact, I woke up less than a hundred years ago.
Before that, I had always been in a chaotic state of consciousness.
When I woke up, I was like this.
I knew a lot of things and had strong spiritual power. As long as my mission was to lurk around Ximen Wuya as the highest emissary and watcher of the Soul Leaving Palace in the human countries.
When I woke up, I was floating on the sea, on the Poison Extending Strait of the Northwest Continent. "
Yang Dingtian was completely shocked.
He originally thought that Ximen Ningning must be very old.
He even imagined that the reason why Queen Medusa let go of the Mermaid Empire at the last moment and escaped from the Naga Empire and did not follow the other Naga to sacrifice herself to create the New Naga Confinement Space was because she already had a child in her belly.
In that case, Ximen Ningning was at least 10,000 years old.
But now, Ximen Ningning said that she had only woken up a few decades ago.
Reading the doubts in Yang Dingtian's heart, Ximen Ningning said, "Xiaotian, you are right.
I am indeed likely to be more than 10,000 years old, but our Naga is not measured by time, but by energy.
Although my mother is pregnant with me, she can decide to give birth to me at any time.
And, you also know that the Demigod Naga couple never give birth to offspring.
It was not until they decided to sacrifice themselves that they found a way to give birth to the next generation of Naga in the New Naga, and also limited their energy. "
That was indeed the case. The Nagas measured their growth by energy, not by age.
Ximen Ningning was silent for a while and said, "Husband, you rejected my mother. This is your final answer, right?"
Yang Dingtian nodded.
He didn't need to hesitate at all. In any case, he would not kill the humans he protected with his own hands.
If Medusa did it herself, more people would die, but that was also fate.
In short, Yang Dingtian would do his best to save as many people as possible.
When he completely gave up, compromised, surrendered, and then killed a large number of humans with his own hands.
He couldn't do it!
"Yes, I rejected Queen Medusa's proposal, no matter what the consequences are, no matter what she will do," Yang Dingtian said.
Ximen Ningning nodded and said, "I know, I can't help you in other aspects.
The only thing I can do is to live and die with you.
If you die, I will drink the poison and turn myself into a fossil. "
Yang Dingtian's eyes were sore, and he didn't say anything to stop her.
This was because Shuang 'er was protecting him. She was telling Queen Medusa that she couldn't kill Yang Dingtian, or she would die with him.
"Sister Ningning, can you stay?
Stay with me, "Yang Dingtian said.
Ximen Ningning shook her head and said, "Little Tian, if you were the first choice, I would stay with you.
If you can't bear to do it, I will do it for you.
However, you rejected my mother's proposal, so it's no good for me to stay. Because in that case, no matter what you do, how you respond, my mother will know. She can see my vision. "
Yang Dingtian said, "Now, without your vision, can she see us?"
Ximen Ningning shook her head and said, "She can't. At present, in this world, there are only a few fixed energy points that can contact the Soul Leaving Palace.
Of course, through the Soul Leaving Palace puppet, she can see everything.
So, no matter what you want to do, don't let Wentian and Dugu Xiao participate, because my mother will know. "
Medusa could hear every word Ximen Ningning said.
However, she still said it, which was equivalent to betraying Medusa's secret to Yang Dingtian.
Yang Dingtian said, "Then, can Queen Medusa control Wentian or Dugu Xiao's will?"
Ximen Ningning shook her head and said, "She can't. She can only write a mental program in the Soul Leaving Palace puppet's brain and then complete it mechanically.
At present, the mental program in Wentian and Dugu Xiao's minds should have been finished long ago. "
Only then did Yang Dingtian relax.
Ximen Ningning gently left Yang Dingtian's embrace and said, "Little Tian, there's not much time left. I have to go."
Yang Dingtian said, "Then what will your mother do?
How will she kill most of the humans? "
Ximen Ningning shook her head and said, "I don't know. I feel that she will make a move soon.
There's really not enough time. I'm leaving … "
With that, Ximen Ningning rode a spiritual beast and was about to fly away.
"Ningning, where should I find you?
Are you returning to the Soul Leaving Palace? "Yang Dingtian asked loudly.
"No, I don't know where the Soul Leaving Palace is."
Ximen Ningning said, "I'm just looking for a place where no one knows, or halfway, she will imprison me and then put me under house arrest at an energy point of the Soul Leaving Palace in the human countries.
In short, I'll be as far away from you as possible.
Because, when I'm close, I can read your heart, so you can't keep it a secret from her. "
With that, Ximen Ningning flew away anxiously.
Yang Dingtian said loudly, "Ningning, one day, I will come to pick you up. I will let you live with us."
Ximen Ningning smiled gently at him and said, "Little Tian, if two people love each other for a long time, they won't be together day and night."
Then, Ximen Ningning rode her spiritual beast and quickly disappeared from Yang Dingtian's sight.
Yang Dingtian watched her disappear and then waited for Medusa to make a move.
All the chess pieces were used up, and Queen Medusa finally went into action herself.
