Chapter 908 - The Saintess’ Choice



Chapter 908: The Saintess’ Choice

Bai Jiacao’s face suddenly turned red.

“I… I wasn’t in a good mood that day because of my brother’s matter. Those b*stards had to come and provoke me…

“I’m just born with divine power, so I’m good at fighting,” she said in embarrassment.

“Don’t belittle yourself.”

A strange light flashed in Lu Siya’s eyes as she stared deeply at Bai Jiacao. “Those blind guys all regard you as a warrior who only knows how to fight. But in my eyes, you are a piece of unpolished jade with infinite potential. You have a power in your body that even you haven’t discovered yet. If you can fully unleash it, you might be even more powerful than your brother!

“Besides, nobody is born to be able to read people’s minds and plan strategies. You’ll be able to make a decisive victory and use astronomical resources to change the world.

“Although I’m still learning and exploring, it’s too lonely to travel by myself on a long journey. If you’re interested, why don’t I teach you?”

“Huh?”

Bai Jiacao was dazed for a moment. She pointed at the tip of her nose and asked, “Can I learn anything other than fighting?”

Lu Siya burst into laughter.

“Of course you can. You’re the ‘Little Witch!’”

She leaned over Bai Jiacao’s shoulder, took a deep breath, and said with a smile, “Xiaocao, I can feel that you and I are the same kind of people. Whatever I can do, you can do it too. Maybe you can do it better than me!”

Bai Jiacao’s ears turned red all the way to her cheeks, and she stammered, “I-I can’t imagine surpassing you, Sister Siya. However, I do admire you a lot. I feel that I have a lot to learn from you.

“The nickname ‘Queen Bee’ alone is very domineering, awe-inspiring, and awesome

“In that case, we have decided easily and happily.”

Lu Siya said, “After we go back, I’ll think about which courses to arrange for you. No matter how tiring and busy the work of the Research Department is, I’ll try my best to take half an hour to an hour every day to help you grow as soon as possible. Try your best to take time out!”

“No problem. I was worried that the martial arts courses in university were too simple and that I wouldn’t be able to eat my fill!”

Bai Jiacao waved her fists excitedly and promised Lu Siya solemnly. “Sister Siya, don’t worry. Although I don’t know if I can do it or not, I’ll definitely put in a lot of effort to learn it.

“I must become strong and grow up as soon as possible so that I can shoulder the burden of my family and my business.

“When my brother comes back, I’ll give him a big surprise when he sees everything in perfect order and in a brand-new state!”

“That’s right.”

Looking at the raging Killing Tiger Gorge and Guillotine in front of her, Lu Siya’s smile grew wider, “When your brother comes back and sees that we are so harmonious and intimate, and that we are working together to make Superstar bigger and stronger, and that you have grown, he will definitely be… pleasantly surprised.”

When the Queen Bee and Little Witch started their conversation…

There were also two other people on the last search and rescue team’s ship, one big and one small. Wearing life jackets and waterproof capes, they stood on the deck and looked at the magnificent Killing Tiger Gorge as well as Guillotine.

They were Su Mulian and A’Ji from Leprosy Village in the former Lair.

The two of them were the key players in solving the chaos in Dragon City.

They had formed a deep friendship with Meng Chao in the bloody battle where they almost died.

During the last search and rescue, they said that they would come to the scene and look for Meng Chao.

But it was only a superficial reason.

In reality, A’Ji was not a teenager leper who was less than ten years old, stunted, and living as a pickpocket.

He was the first lord of the Lair and one of the strongest people in Dragon City, “Domineering Saber” Jin Wanhao. He used the secret technique of Rejuvenation, but it was an accidental product of an experiment gone wrong.

There were two people who knew his secret identity.

Meng Chao and Lu Siya.

Now, there was only one left.

Seeing that the leading ship had issued the “Return” banner, A’Ji heaved a sigh of relief. The corners of his mouth could not help but curl into a subtle smile.

He suppressed his joy and comforted Su Mulian, who had been as silent as a statue since they boarded the ship. “Sister Mulian, don’t be too sad. Although the search this time remained fruitless, we still haven’t found Brother Meng Chao’s… corpse.”

“Fortune favors the blessed. Perhaps brother Meng Chao is still alive and enjoying himself in an unknown place?”

“I know that Meng Chao is still alive.”

Su Mulian was silent for a while. When the boat turned around, she rolled her eyes and softly said, “This is the problem. This is the problem that I have been worried about.”

“Huh?”

The sound of the waterfall was too loud. A’Ji did not hear her at all and did not understand what she said.

He thought that Su Mulian was heartbroken and in a trance.

He could only hold Su Mulian’s arm to prevent her from falling off the side of the boat. He carefully asked, “Sister Mulian, do you… like brother Meng Chao?”

A’Ji had wanted to say something like, “If you really like brother Meng Chao, you should cheer up for him and live well.”

Unexpectedly, Su Mulian shook her head solemnly.

“It’s not what you think. My relationship with Meng Chao doesn’t involve any romantic feelings.”

Her gaze pierced through Killing Tiger Gorge and extended toward the horizon behind the clouds. Then she changed the subject. “However, Meng Chao is indeed a very special existence to me.

“This incident has been like a heavy bomb that has shattered the iron wall around my soul. I can no longer escape and can only face… my true self.

“A’Ji, what kind of person do you think I am?”

A’Ji was confused by her.

After thinking for a while, he decided to tell her the truth. “Gentle, kind, selfless, full of compassion, full of boundless love, and willing to contribute all of her strength for a stranger who has no family or friends. You simple resemble a fairy that has fallen from the sky, a living bodhisattva who saves the suffering!”

Su Mulian could not help but laugh.

She burst into tears.

“You’re so little. How can you be so over-the-top?”

She pinched A’Ji’s cheek.

Then, she grabbed the railing on the side of the ship tightly.

The strength she exerted was so great that it seemed like she was going to break the steel pipe.

“Yes, many people think like you. Not only do they call me ‘Little Miracle Doctor,’ they even call me ‘Saintess’ or something like that. But only I know that I’m not who you say I am.”

Su Mulian mumbled to herself, “Unlike your praises, the realest Su Mulian is actually a timid, incompetent, and indecisive selfish person deep down in her heart.

“She knows that a disaster is coming, but she only knows how to protect herself.

“She can try to change and stop it, but she’s afraid that she’s too weak and doesn’t know where to start.

“I want to force myself to ignore all of this, but I can’t sleep at night because of the guilt. I can only keep transferring the pain of others to myself, using inhuman pain to make my conscience feel better.

“However, isn’t this still lying to myself?

“Even if I can transfer everyone’s pain to myself, what’s the use? I’ve never really saved anyone. In fact, what I’ve done will only make everyone suffer longer, more miserably, and more desperately!”

Her voice was very weak.

A’Ji really did not understand what she was saying.

He only felt that her expression was frighteningly ugly.

“Sister Mulian, are you alright?”

He was worried and wondering if he should call for help.

“I’m fine.”

Su Mulian took a deep breath and regained her calm. She revealed a completely different smile from a moment ago.

She had seemingly shattered and reshaped something at the bottom of her heart.

“I just don’t want to deceive myself anymore and run away from what I should be facing. I can finally summon the courage to embark on the journey that belongs to me.”

Su Mulian smiled. “You’re right. There is no butterfly effect. There is nothing that can be changed without any effort. There is no future that can be created without paying any price, right?

“If I want to change the course of the surging Red Dragon River or the Raging Tiger River, countless lives will be sacrificed.

“If I want to change the course of something that’s a hundred times more ferocious than the Red Dragon River or the Raging Tiger River, it’s reasonable even if I’m smashed into pieces.

“Perhaps, those things that are destined to be doomed will still be doomed no matter how hard I fight them.

“But at least, so many people call me Little Divine Doctor or even Saintess. Believe me, I can save everyone. I jsut have to act like a Saintess. A’Ji, don’t you think so?”

“…Is that so?”

Ah Ji frowned and said, “Sister Mulian, what’s wrong with you today? You’re acting weird.”

“Don’t worry, I’m fine, really. I just want to ask you some questions,” Su Mulian said

“I can’t ask adults these questions because they will definitely find it very strange. I also can’t ask ordinary children because they can’t answer them at all.”.

“You, on the other hand, are a little brat. You have been in the Lair for so many years, and you are more shrewd than anyone else. Perhaps you can help me find some clues?”

A’Ji’s eyes lit up. He rubbed his fists and said, “Sister Mulian, what would you like to know? A’Ji promises to tell you everything!”

Su Mulian said, “I want to know. Is there any way to make everyone believe me?”

A’Ji was stunned for a moment. He scratched his head and said, “What kind of question is that? Everyone believes in you now!”

“I’m not talking about the normal level of trust. I’m talking about no matter what absurd things I say, people will believe me without a doubt.”

Su Mulian said, “For example, if I say that the sky is red and the sun is square, monsters are vegetarians and humans are cannibals, a certain great hero with outstanding military achievements is actually a heinous devil while the great villain that is widely condemned is a great good man who has long-term plans and has endured humiliation, the glorious civilization that looks like flowers and oil cooked by a raging fire will be annihilated overnight, and the seemingly insignificant seedling will become the most terrifying enemy at some point in the future—as long as I open my mouth, all the people of Dragon City will firmly believe my absurd words.

“Is there a way to achieve such a level of ‘trust?’”
