Origin Legend: Heroic Hymn

Chapter 138 Divinity and Humanity

Time goes back to after everyone finished dinner, when the companions sent the exhausted Ling Feng back to his room.

Accompanied by the chirping of cicadas and croaking of frogs in the hot summer, Bai Shengyu returned to the room where he lived with Yilu with a heavy heart.

"Sister Yilu, what should Xiaobai do?"

"What should I do?"

"It's not my brother yet. He said he won't marry again! And with my brother's character, he won't have children with a woman who is not his wife!"

Just as Yi Lu was about to speak to comfort Bai Shengyu, her expression suddenly became frightened. She immediately stood up from her seat and looked at Bai Shengyu seriously.

"Xiaobai, that person wants to see you!"

Bai Shengyu's face also became obviously flustered, and he subconsciously adjusted his clothes.

"Okay...Okay, Xiaobai got it, I'm ready!"

Yilu glanced at Bai Shengyu with complicated eyes, and then his figure began to become illusory. A ray of white holy light burst out from her eyes, illuminating the entire room.

At this moment, the whole world seemed to have stopped because of this holy light, including the chirping of cicadas and frogs outside the window.

A holy and noble figure was faintly seen descending from the holy light, and upon closer inspection, her appearance was exactly the same as Bai Shengyu. She slowly opened her eyes, like the purest thing in the world, gentle and inviolable.

"Bai Shengyu, do you still remember the responsibilities I gave you?"

A cold and noble voice sounded. Although the voice was extremely similar, it gave people a feeling of being out of reach. Bai Shengyu nervously grasped the hem of her skirt with both hands, looking at her with a timid look in his eyes.

"Xiaobai has not forgotten his identity! He has also not forgotten the duties that Xiaobai must perform!"

At this time, Yilu had placed his hands on his chest, knelt on one knee, and prayed devoutly.

"Great God of Light, your devout believers offer their most sincere blessings here, and as your messengers, we respectfully welcome your arrival!"

"Get up. As my messenger, you don't need to do these meaningless rituals anymore."

The God of Light nodded lightly, without any emotional fluctuation, and looked at the nervous Bai Shengyu again.

"Changes are ultimately caused by fate. What are you going to do next?"

"Xiaobai, Xiaobai doesn't know!"

Bai Shengyu clenched his fists nervously, feeling his palms full of sweat.

"In that case, let's find the answer as usual!"

The voice of the Goddess of Light still contained no emotion, but her words did not seem to contain any command. Bai Shengyu hesitated for a moment and then nodded slightly to show her agreement.

"As the embodiment of my human nature, what is the main purpose of this descent?"

The God of Light asked the question, and Bai Shengyu calmed himself down and answered seriously.

"Let the bloodline of Ling Feng who came to the Edos continent from another dimension be inherited!"

"Does it justify any means to achieve this goal?"

"can!"

Bai Shengyu's eyes were empty, looking directly at the most rational answer in the deepest part of his heart.

Over the past two thousand years, whenever Bai Shengyu's mind was confused, she would look for the most correct answer in the questions of divinity. They have always done so, and the effect of doing so is very obvious, which often allows her to solve all her problems.

"Can I ignore Ling Feng's feelings?"

But this sentence pulled Bai Shengyu back to reality from her subconscious. Even though they had not been together for a long time, she felt a rare emotion from Ling Feng, a feeling she had hardly felt since she was born.

"No! How can you ignore your brother's feelings!"

Bai Shengyu's emotions obviously became urgent. Facing him like this, the God of Light still did not have too many emotions, even though Bai Shengyu in front of her was her incarnation.

"Being emotional won't solve the problem. I need you to stay absolutely rational."

Bai Shengyu's face turned pale, and he looked at the God of Light in front of him with longing eyes. But as a god who had eliminated human nature and possessed absolute divinity, how could he show the slightest emotion?

Perhaps because she was an incarnation of God, she was reminded of her duties. Bai Shengyu once again forced herself to remain absolutely rational. After her emotions stabilized, she once again faced God's questions.

"Please answer again, can you ignore Ling Feng's feelings?"

"can!"

This time, Bai Shengyu's eyes were empty again, without any trace of emotion, but there seemed to be a hint of divinity brewing in the depths of his rationality.

The God of Light, who had no expression at all, frowned slightly at this moment. Yilu, who was serving beside him, became a little panicked. If divinity was generated, Bai Shengyu would no longer be Bai Shengyu.

"To preserve the bloodline, we need a woman. Can this woman be anyone?"

Bai Shengyu's expression became more and more sacred. Just as he was about to make his own answer, the God of Light lightly tapped his fingertips, and a ray of obscure and unpredictable power was drawn out of Bai Shengyu's body. Bai Shengyu's face, which had gradually become solemn, was filled with sorrow again and returned to his previous appearance.

"I want an answer from a rational person, not from God! If you're not ready, we can stop for now!"

"Phew~ Please continue, Xiaobai knows what to do, and he will feel very uneasy if he can't make a decision!"

Bai Shengyu took a deep breath and adjusted his state again.

"Then it's as you wish. Can anyone be the woman who retains Ling Feng's bloodline?"

"No, that won't work. The woman must have deep feelings for Ling Feng and be willing to bear and raise offspring for him. She must also be a healthy woman who won't affect the normal growth of the child. Another condition is that she can protect Ling Feng's offspring even if she is alone."

Although Bai Shengyu's eyes were full of rationality at this moment, there were also rich emotional jumps. After recognizing her state, the God of Light continued her questioning.

“Are there any eligible women at the moment?”

"Yes, there are two people who meet the requirements."

"who is it?"

"Bai Shengyu and Fu Minnie (whose status is yet to be determined)! They are the only two women who meet the above requirements."

This answer made Yilu feel extremely surprised. Although she had some guesses that Bai Shengyu liked Ling Feng, she was still shocked by his willingness to continue Ling Feng's bloodline. However, the God of Light did not stop asking questions.

"Then the candidates are decided to be these two. Who has the highest success rate?"

"Bai Shengyu! Her body can exert special authority. Just one time and the success rate of pregnancy is 100%."

Although Yilu was greatly shocked inside, she still managed to remain calm on the surface. The God of Light seemed to have noticed her abnormality, and in order to prevent any accidents from affecting the results of the Q&A, he used his divine power to forcibly calm Yilu's emotions and then continued to ask questions.

"Why is Fumini pending?"

"Because of Fumini's race, even if she is given the authority, the chance of success is still only 40%. In addition, although the other party has some love, it is mostly gratitude, so Bai Shengyu is the best candidate."

"The final confirmation method, normal submission or forced execution?"

"Reject the plan. Ling Feng himself will not agree to it if it is proposed normally. If it is enforced, both parties will have resistance and the success rate will be affected. The most suitable plan is to let Ling Feng think that the target is Rita, and let Bai Shengyu... deeply substitute Rita."

When he said this, although Bai Shengyu's emotions were still stable in a rational state, two lines of tears still slid uncontrollably from the corners of his eyes.

“How can we do this?”

"The only way is... to use the magic of the phantom elf Ilu to transform Bai Shengyu into Rita, and at the same time change Bai Shengyu's cognition..."

"You did a great job. After this, you will have fulfilled your responsibilities and can do what you want. You will no longer be my incarnation, but the real Bai Shengyu as a human being!"

The God of Light gently embraced Bai Shengyu in his arms, his voice was softer than ever before, and then he gradually turned into white light and disappeared. At the same time, Bai Shengyu felt as if some connection between him and himself had been severed.

The white light dissipated, and everything around returned to normal. The chirping of cicadas and croaking of frogs, common in summer, could be heard outside the window again.

Yilu, who had regained his composure, embraced Bai Shengyu in his arms, his eyes becoming moist.

"Xiao Bai! Ling Feng will hate you forever if you do this! You will never be able to return to Ling Feng's side again."

"It's okay, Xiaobai is willing to endure it all! And it was my brother who lied to me first! Xiaobai's feelings for my brother were indeed love for the opposite sex, but my brother lied to me and said it was love between family members. Xiaobai is now going to exercise her right to love!"

Yi Lu was about to say something, but Bai Shengyu, with tears in his eyes, showed an extremely happy smile on his face, which made Yi Lu stop talking.

"Since I am the most suitable candidate, then Xiaobai, who broke the agreement, is no longer your sister from now on...

After tonight, it doesn't matter if you hate Xiaobai or forget Xiaobai. Xiaobai will definitely feel lonely from now on! Xiaobai will raise the child born between him and his brother alone.

After all, Xiaobai has lived for so long! This is not a difficult thing! Xiaobai, Xiaobai is really a bad woman, Sister Yilu! Wuwuwu..."

Bai Shengyu threw herself into Yilu's arms and cried loudly. And Yilu could only silently protect Bai Shengyu who had made up her mind...
