Chapter 298 Where to go?
Shui Qingli learned what happened next: there were no survivors in the fairyland except for him, but he was very lucky to wait for Qianqian in the midst of despair and start the second playthrough.
but……
"Qianqian..." Shui Qingli, back in reality, suddenly called out to Qianqian.
"Yes." She poked her head out slightly, but she felt that something was off about Shui Qingli.
"Was I able to wait for you in my past life because of him...?" Shui Qingli said, her voice trembling slightly.
Yes, at that time, he was all alone in the fairyland, with no relatives or friends left. In addition, he suddenly awakened and his mind was full of regret for the past, so he naturally ignored this problem.
But now that I think about it, he was also a fairy of nature, so why did he survive until all the fairies had passed away, even though the Pure Water Lake had dried up?
【What kind of answer would you like to hear?】 As a system, Qianqian's understanding of emotions is mostly based on routine data analysis. Without emotions, she cannot truly empathize.
But seeing Shui Qingli's appearance, she hesitated to give the answer that was on the tip of her tongue, and she didn't know how to comfort Shui Qingli.
“I want to know the truth,” Shui Qingli said firmly. “Since it’s our past, I shouldn’t be kept in the dark. I have the right to know everything.”
"Okay..." She sighed softly, but the truth was—
[Water Prince, just as you guessed, it was the King who gave everything to give you the chance to continue living, allowing you to persevere until you met me, thus giving you this opportunity to start over and change everything.]
Otherwise, given the World King's unique abilities and the fact that he had no connection to the human world, he should have been one of the few survivors in his previous life, just like the King of the Palace.
Unfortunately, Yu Wang Li Hui voluntarily followed Princess Shi Xi of Time and went to her death, while Shi Wang Yue Yuan Ming also gave Shui Qing Li everything to buy her a chance to prolong her life.
All I can say is that love is truly a magical thing, so magical that it can make people forget all their lifelong desires and disregard everything for just one person.
"Qianqian, I want to see him... right now!" Shui Qingli seemed to be somewhat obsessed, perhaps because she had just learned how much Yue Yuanming had done for her in her previous life, so she couldn't wait to return to the Forbidden Land.
The separations of the past and the unpleasantness that lingered in his heart were no longer so important. Faced with life and death, all he could do was cherish the present.
However, this matter was not yet over, and Qianqian promptly advised, "Prince Water, please wait a little longer. It seems the God of Fate still has something to discuss."
“…Okay.” Shui Qingli closed her eyes, suppressing the impulse in her heart.
Fortunately, it's not like the past where everyone met their end. They still have a long time to heal the pain caused by that separation.
If we want to safeguard our future happiness, we must first ensure that the fairyland, and all its inhabitants, have a future!
"This is your past. I suppose the answers to some of your questions are what you're looking for." Seeing that Shui Qingli's eyes had regained some clarity, Yu Qingyan spoke again: "Prince Shui, the past is the past. We should look forward."
"As someone with great fortune, you are the only one capable of breaking this deadlock."
"The one who broke the deadlock... was me?" Shui Qingli suddenly recalled the scene of so-called "destiny" that he had seen when he last met Yu Qingyan.
Is fate truly unchangeable?
“When the Mutian Pavilion rules this world, you will know everything you want to know.” A rare hint of emotion appeared in Yu Qingyan’s eyes.
"What do you mean?" Shui Qingli pressed.
However, Yu Qingyan did not answer Shui Qingli's question. She closed her eyes and disappeared from the spot.
"Water Prince, it is said... the God of Destiny means that your final task is to assist the World King in ruling the Fairy Realm and the human world." Qianqian explained to Shui Qingli.
"Let the Mutian Pavilion rule over the fairyland and the human world?" Shui Qingli was stunned.
There was no other reason than that this task highly overlapped with his objectives.
"Yes," Qianqian affirmed. "As long as you complete this task, you can change the fate of Fairyland."
What Qianqian didn't say was that the current situation, where they were so close to ruling the fairy realm and the human world, was actually just a facade.
What's meant to happen will happen, and the future may have been decided from the very beginning.
