Chapter 146 I said I would always protect you
Shui Qingli couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. Even if he could do it all over again, he still couldn't prevent his sister from starting to disappear.
"Qianqian, there must be a way, right?" Shui Qingli asked Qianqian anxiously, "There must be a way to save my sister, right?"
【Water Prince, please calm down.】 This was the first time Qianqian had ever seen Shui Qingli so agitated.
"How can I stay calm? She's my sister, my only family!" Shui Qingli tried her best to maintain a sliver of rationality.
No matter what happened in the past life, no matter what the feelings are like in this life, Bing Lixue is Shui Qingli's only family and one of the most important people in his life!
As for why there was one of them, Shui Qingli himself didn't understand, but he didn't have time to worry about that right now!
"No matter the cost, I will save her!"
"Prince Water, as you know, Princess Ice's current situation stems from the melting of glaciers in the human world. Even if we can come up with a good solution, it will only be a temporary fix unless we address the root cause of the problem in the human world," Qianqian said helplessly. "Moreover, the two methods that could truly solve the problem of Princess Ice's disappearance at its source are currently unfeasible."
"What method?!" Upon hearing Qianqian's words, Shui Qingli grasped at a straw and completely ignored Qianqian's words "cannot be implemented".
"The first solution is for the Mutian Pavilion to emerge and once again reign supreme over the Immortal Realm," Qianqian explained. "As the Vice Prime Minister, you should know best that the Mutian Pavilion, possessing destructive power, can follow the will of Heaven, destroy the civilization of the old era, and usher in a new one."
If we could destroy human civilization or restrict human activity, we could greatly mitigate the greenhouse effect and prevent the Ice Princess from disappearing.
“This method will take some time to develop.” Shui Qingli pondered for a moment, then asked again, “What about the second method?”
[The second method is similar: seek help from the leader of the Mutian Pavilion, the World King. Having control over the power of evolution, he naturally has the ability to save Princess Bing.] Knowing everything, Qianqian couldn't speak too definitively, but simply stated another unfortunate fact: [However, it's clear that this plan is currently unfeasible. After all, putting aside your strange relationship with the Mutian Pavilion, you can't go back now.]
"Do we really have to go back to Mutian Pavilion?" Shui Qingli frowned slightly, asking Qianqian with reluctance, "Isn't there any other way?"
【No.】If she had hands, Qianqian would definitely shrug and tell Shui Qingli with a rather helpless expression: 【Besides these two methods, the other methods are just treating the symptoms, not the root cause.】
"I understand." Shui Qingli had a plan in mind: "It seems that even for my sister's sake, some things need to be expedited."
……
"Brother?" Bing Lixue saw that Shui Qingli had been staring blankly at her hand since earlier and thought he was too worried, so she called out to him with concern.
"Sister, I'm here." Having regained his senses, Shui Qingli already had a plan. He gathered his magical power in his hands: "Ye Luoli Magic, Water Droplet Condensation!"
Before long, a translucent bead appeared in Shui Qingli's hand, containing powerful immortal energy and shimmering with a captivating blue light.
This is the sacred dew that contains the power of the clear, flowing water for thousands of years!
"Brother, what are you doing?" Bing Lixue couldn't understand Shui Qingli's behavior.
“Before the problems of the human world are completely solved, this is the only method I can think of—to use my essence to make up for your declining essence.” Shui Qingli said, and before Bing Lixue could refuse, he dispersed the Holy Water Dew, which turned into several streams of light and merged into Bing Lixue’s body.
Although losing the Holy Water Dew wasn't a problem for Yu Shuiqingli, it was still the power of a thousand years, which easily replenished Bing Lixue's essence. Even the places on her hands that had started to disappear were restored to their original state, as if they had never existed.
"Brother, why are you doing this?" Now that things have come to this, Bing Lixue did not try to stop him in vain: "Losing the elixir must have a great impact on you too, right?"
"Don't worry, it's not that serious," Shui Qingli explained. "Water is the most ancient existence, and my immortal power is far stronger than you imagine. Losing a thousand years of power won't cause any problems."
"That's good." Bing Lixue breathed a sigh of relief, but she was surprised to find that her brother seemed to have become... very willful (?).
"I said I would always protect you." Shui Qingli looked tenderly at her younger sister, but in her heart she was thinking—
In our past life, weren't you the same? You risked your life to save me.
But in this life, no matter what happens, I will protect you, I swear in the name of water!
