Upon hearing this, Gu Yuqiu remained calm and composed.
Yuan Chu stared into her eyes and finally said, "You have already lost, lost because of your own reckless choices. This is the cause you have sown."
Gu Yuqiu did not answer.
It wasn't that she disdained to pay attention or thought that the statement was a threat that Yuan Chu couldn't accept failure; rather, she... was genuinely tired now.
More importantly, the battle is not yet completely over.
The moment the conversation ended.
The black shadow suddenly disintegrated, and the remaining human form was no more. A cloud of mist carrying an extremely cold aura suddenly erupted and rushed in all directions!
The scenery was no longer visible.
The light that fell upon them from above also obscured them.
Countless ice crystals emerged from the mist, resembling stars frozen solid.
Gu and Qiu were in the middle, with no one else in sight, as if they were in the boundless universe.
This will be the final blow from the Primal.
After this attack, it will temporarily return, sinking into the bottom of that vast, empty sea, where it will sleep for a very, very long time, and it is unknown when it will awaken.
In fact, this was an accident.
In Gu Yuqiu's view, there was absolutely no need for Yuan Chu to do this, to pay such a huge price for the possibility of killing her.
She couldn't understand it; she felt it was all inexplicable, and her expression grew cold.
"You are ultimately not a person of this world."
The original voice, tinged with sadness, rang in her ears: "If you were me, I would earnestly advise you, but I would never truly stop you."
Gu Yuqiu stared blankly at the universe before him, saying nothing.
Frost slowly appeared on her body.
The slowly flowing blood, turning into congealed matter, brought a strange feeling.
The bone-chilling cold felt like countless scalpels entering through those wounds and wreaking havoc inside the body.
She raised an eyebrow, shook off the fine frost on the corners of her eyes, and slowly raised the long sword in her hand.
The original voice still echoes.
"Unfortunately, you are not like that. You are a stranger in a foreign land. Over the years, you have always thought about going back. You were even willing to give up the throne. I have to think about a question."
It was silent for a moment, then the weariness in its voice could no longer be concealed: "If war breaks out between the two worlds, and it comes down to you choosing sides... I don't have the confidence to defeat you."
Gu Yuqiu frowned slightly and said, "From the first day I came into this world until today, have I ever truly interfered in those matters?"
Those things define the world's格局 (geju, a concept encompassing the overall structure, the global landscape, and the future direction of humanity).
She is fully entitled to do so; if she so desires, the entire human world should kneel before her and follow her will.
"Do not."
Yuan Chu replied without hesitation, "You did it."
Gu Yuqiu was quiet for a moment, then shook her head and said, "That doesn't count."
Yuan Chu asked earnestly, "Was your previous decision to cut off human reproduction all a lie?"
This is an extremely powerful accusation, a crime known to the world.
People remember her by that name, and even bury her name because of it. They call her by that name, fearing that she might return and do the same thing again.
Even Su Yan couldn't erase these past events for her.
Gu Yuqiu remained calm and said, "I only thought about it, but I didn't do it."
Originally, there was silence.
"Who lives their entire life without ever having the thought of killing someone?"
Gu Yuqiu sneered, "It's really boring of you to bring this up."
Amidst a sky full of stars and frost, all was quiet.
A gentle breeze, seemingly from nowhere, carrying the last vestiges of decay, halted the passage of time.
This is, of course, sophistry and utterly unreasonable.
Yuan Chu was well aware of this, and finally sighed softly.
The sigh subsided.
The stars in the sky began to rotate, turning into streams of light, with Gu and Qiu at the center.
Everything is moving towards silence.
It was before the beginning of the universe, or after its destruction.
Faced with this silent yet terrifying destruction, those who had not yet reached the fifth rank of superhumans had no chance of resistance.
This time, Gu Yuqiu was no exception.
Perhaps her will was exhausted to the extreme and on the verge of collapse after countless lies.
Perhaps it was the countless wounds on her body that shattered her former perfection, making it impossible for her to transcend.
In short, she did nothing.
The frost-like specks, like stars, suddenly came to a standstill, ceasing their movement.
The next moment, everything in sight converged on Gu and Qiu.
Even those who stand at the pinnacle of the human world, now reduced to only six peak fifth-tier individuals, would choose to evade this attack.
No one would face this blow head-on, because it would inevitably result in serious injury.
Gu Yuqiu remained calm.
There was a very slight ripple in the void in front of her, as if something was trying to emerge from it.
That was the scent of ancient, slumbering scrolls.
Suddenly.
Her eyelids were slightly lowered.
……
……
In the virtual realm, the thick fog gradually dissipated.
Su Yan remained indifferent as she calmly swung her fist forward.
In less than a second, she shattered the space and locked onto that decaying aura amidst the chaos.
Just as her eyes brightened and were no longer dim...
That speck of light has arrived.
There were no words spoken.
Without any hesitation.
That tiny speck of light, as insignificant as dust, fell to the ground.
Su Yan had paved the way for it in advance; it only needed to follow the path.
This process is even shorter than a moment.
By the time Su Yan saw the traces left by Guang Chen, it was already too late.
She looked at the scene before her with an extremely indifferent expression, slowly loosened her fist, and wiped the blood from her face with the back of her hand.
Just before the feeling of exhaustion was about to overwhelm her body and mind, she took a step forward.
It's just one step.
What you see is worlds apart.
……
……
The stars are gathering.
Gu and Qiu, at the center of all things, are about to be shattered to pieces and cease to exist.
Countless eyes appeared within the primordial mist; that was its entire will.
Among them are those hidden within Qiuye Chunhai's body, those who have fought alongside Gu and Qiu to this day, and many others weaker than them, but all are primordial beings.
They watched Gu Yuqiu silently, noticing the unusual movement in the void in front of her, sensing the aura of the Ancient Scroll of Slumber, and revealing the weariness of having achieved their goal in their eyes.
To withstand this attack, even if the Ancient Scroll of Sleeping Shadows isn't completely burned, it will have to pay an unbelievable price.
This could significantly delay Gu and Qiu's departure, and the time created was enough to change many things.
It's hard for them not to be overjoyed and extremely satisfied with this result.
Because from the very beginning, from the moment they started plotting, they never intended to kill Gu Yuqiu.
……
……
At that moment, under the gaze of all primordial wills.
A figure appeared in front of Gu Yuqiu.
The man did nothing; he just stood there.
The stars vanished instantly.
The frost then faded away.
The wind was still blowing, but it was no longer fierce; it had become gentle.
Those eyes that represented the primordial will vanished in that instant, not because they were hiding themselves, but because they sensed the will of the newcomer and fled in terror.
The visitor was very angry and awkwardly extended his hand, shaking it in front of him.
