Chapter 163 The Fall of Xinling
Upon hearing these words, the Ye Luoli warriors exchanged bewildered glances, unable to believe what Yan Jue had said.
"What is he saying? Is the store manager going to disappear?"
"How, how is it possible?"
"I do not believe!"
However, the desolate stone and several little fairies present all showed a sad mood.
"During the great war in the Fairy Realm, Queen Mandora cursed us, saying that if we came to the human world, we would turn into lifeless dolls. To protect us and to fight against Mandora's curse, Fairy Xinling used her own body as a seal." Zhuo Yan explained the situation to the Ye Luoli warriors with a somber expression: "Although Fairy Xinling didn't turn into a doll, she did so at the cost of exposing her primordial spirit. If we exhaust our fairy power, at most we will be unable to use magic, but we will recover after resting or absorbing new power. However, this is not the case for Fairy Xinling; she will dissipate once she exhausts her fairy power!"
"Xinling, do you... really have to live and die with this world without holding back?" Huangshi listened to Zhuo Yan's words with some melancholy.
"How could this be?!" Wang Mo looked at Xin Ling in disbelief, and together with the other Ye Luoli warriors, called out to her, "Shopkeeper Sister!"
"This is my own decision. I want to see your future, I want to see a future where this world is full of greenery..." Even knowing that her time was up, Xin Ling remained very calm.
She slowly closed her eyes, and the woman beneath her gradually turned into specks of light and dissipated: "But it seems I've reached my limit. In the end, despite my best efforts, I still couldn't protect this world..."
In fact, Xin Ling had always had a little plan in her heart. Even if her primordial spirit dissipated, the Spirit Princess, the Mother of Life, could still revive her. And as long as she died, even without Yan Jue's arrival, she could still grasp the conscience of several Saint-level fairies and make them spare the human world.
This was also the conclusion Xin Ling reached and the plan she made after Pang Zun and Du Xi Fei repeatedly persuaded her and showed her mercy.
To protect the human world, Xin Ling had truly exhausted all her resources and schemes.
"Manager!"
"Fairy Xinling!"
Watching Xinling gradually fall due to the disappearance of the Mijian Sect, the Ye Luoli warriors and fairies were very distressed.
Never before have they hated their incompetence and weakness as much as they do now.
"This is my last request." Xin Ling held her staff in both hands, and as the light swirled, the staff gradually shrank, transforming into a delicate key-shaped hairpin.
……
"Qianqian, that's the key to Fuyun Tower, isn't it?" Just then, Shui Qingli, who was hiding in the shadows, suddenly asked Qianqian.
He still remembered that the Floating Cloud Tower held countless secrets, some of which might be related to forbidden places.
"Yes, but Prince Water, I don't recommend you take the key now." Qianqian gave a very pertinent suggestion: "First of all, with so many Lingxi Pavilion masters watching here, taking the key would be troublesome. Besides, Xinling had already distributed the real keys to the Floating Cloud Tower to the little fairies who followed her before she even arrived..."
Even if we obtained the key to Floating Cloud Tower now, it wouldn't be of any use; it would only alert the enemy.
“…Alright.” Shui Qingli felt that Qianqian’s words made sense, and Xinling’s primordial spirit was about to dissipate. Mandora would definitely use Xinling’s resurrection as she had in the previous life to help him connect to the forbidden land.
If the butterfly effect doesn't disrupt everything, then let's wait and see for now.
……
"Shopkeeper, this is..." Shu Yan took the hairpin and looked at Xin Ling in the sky with some confusion.
The several Saint-level fairies standing nearby were very surprised, because they could all see that the hairpin was the key to the Floating Cloud Tower.
However, before Fairy Xinling could tell the Ye Luoli warriors this secret, she passed away completely.
Intense seven-colored light emanated from Xin Ling's body. Xin Ling frowned in pain, her already cracked body suddenly shattered, and her weary eyes finally closed completely...
"Shopkeeper!" Several Ye Luoli warriors ran desperately towards Xinling's direction.
"I will seal this place with my own name to protect this world!"
Xin Ling's voice echoed in the air, while at that moment, Xin Ling's primordial spirit shattered completely, transforming into dazzling light that scattered in all directions, like fireworks breaking through the night. Although brilliant, it was ultimately fleeting...
The largest beam of light slowly fell upon the Ye Luoli warriors. Xinling, who had lost her life and turned into a doll, fell into the hands of several children. Her broken body and closed eyes were proof of the fairy's demise...
