“Mmm!” Lin Qingyin responded subconsciously and walked towards him involuntarily. Jiang Wei held her hand very naturally, with tenderness in his eyes: “What did you see when you went to the human world this time?”
Lin Qingyin was stunned for a moment, and then she heard herself sigh softly: “God is in power and the people are in dire straits. Even if I am an auspicious bird, I can’t do anything to deal with this situation. The world is unstable, and there is no peace, but we auspicious beasts can’t intervene because of heaven’s law. Qing Long, is this our end?”
Lin Qingyin’s heart was full of sadness, but there was a bit of clarity in it, which made her a little confused. She subconsciously looked down at herself and found that she was not wearing simple sportswear, but a colorful and dazzling Chinese dress, which seemed to be shining with a light shake.
When Lin Qingyin was in a daze, Jiang Wei raised his hand and stroked Lin Qingyin’s hair, the same as when Lin Qingyin was laughing and rubbing Jiang Wei’s hair: “How is it possible? We are auspicious beasts.”
A sense of desolation welled up in her heart, Lin Qingyin knew that these were just words to comfort her. The world was in chaos, how could auspicious beasts not be affected? She turned around and buried her head in Jiang Wei’s arms, with a tear in the corner of her eye.
Jiang Wei put his arms around Lin Qingyin’s body and sighed silently.
In Jiang Wei’s arms, Lin Qingyin felt a feeling of attachment that made her feel peaceful and at ease. The two hugged quietly for a long time, before Lin Qingyin could figure out what was going on, she suddenly felt empty. And then a deafening cry came from her ears, Lin Qingyin raised her head and found that the palace and Jiang Wei were gone. She was standing on a muddy path, in front of a group of people crying and bowing down to her.
Lin Qingyin felt sad seeing this scene, but she knew that everything in the world has laws. Even if she was an auspicious bird, she shouldn’t interfere too much. Just as she turned to leave, a healthy young man suddenly chased after her, pleading hoarsely while running towards her.
Lin Qingyin knew that she should leave quickly, but after all, she couldn’t bear to see the pleading eyes of the people behind her, and finally violated the law of heaven and drew a feather with divine power and handed it to the young man.
“I hope you can create a peaceful and prosperous world!” She heard herself say.
One day in the sky, one year in the world. Lin Qingyin only returned to the Phoenix Palace for two days, and the heavens imposed a heavy punishment. For the crime of disturbing the world, illegally using divine power to block the dynasty’s vitality, resulting in the birth of fierce beasts.
Lin Qingyin stumbled into the world. She was shocked by the scene in front of her. There were many dead bodies, numerous victims, and a large number of beasts who were born, wreaking havoc on the world. However, the young man who took her phoenix feather didn’t do what he promised. On the contrary, he became even more contemptible than the previous fatuous king. He robs the people’s daughters, fights recklessly, and was tyrannical. He turned the whole world into his battlefield and took killing as a game in his spare time.
Lin Qingyin shed tears of blood after seeing this scene. She beheaded the tyrant who cheated her feather with her hand, then turned and flew towards the sky. She deserved to be punished for the sins she committed. She scattered her spirits under the ninety-nine divine claps of thunder.
When the ninth divine thunder fell, the phoenix crown on Lin Qingyin’s head was turned into ashes, and her silk hair hung down and fell on her back.
When the nineteenth divine thunder fell, Lin Qingyin’s face was pale, and her fine clothes were soaked in blood.
When the twenty-ninth divine thunder fell, most of Lin Qingyin’s divine power disappeared, and she couldn’t maintain her human form. A scarred phoenix flew out of her clothes and landed firmly on the cloud, ready to meet the next divine thunder.
Thunder fell one after another. Lin Qingyin was dying, her heart was full of regrets, and she was sorry for those people who worshiped her. She brought them a cruel war. She was sorry for this world. The fierce beasts were born, and the world will never have peace. She also felt sorry for him, she promised to be together forever, but she hadn’t had time to marry him.
When she fell into a coma, she heard a dragon roar, she struggled to raise her head and saw a blue dragon descending from the sky, blocking the thick thunder for her.
“Qing Long…” She murmured, but before he rushed to her side, she slowly closed her eyes and fell into the darkness.
*
The sun woke her up again. Lin Qingyin opened her eyes. At this time, the sky was blue and cloudy, without the darkness brought by ferocious beasts, nor the gloom brought by the plague. Around her were birds singing and flowers in spring.
She went down the mountain in a daze and found that the beasts disappeared and the world was peaceful and happy, just as she had been expecting, but the blue dragon who kept saying that he would be with her was gone.
Lin Qingyin frantically searched everywhere. She could feel his breath, but she couldn’t see him.
Despair eroded her heart little by little. When she vowed to destroy heaven and earth to find him, a backtracking stone fell from heaven. Lin Qingyin watched the blue dragon block the divine thunder for her, shoulder all the guilt, and was even willing to dispel his soul for her.
Under the thunder of the gods, the blue dragon writhed in pain. In order not to let his huge body destroy the mountains and rivers, he used his strong will to shrink his body, and then pulled out his dragon tendons and dropped them to the ground, turning them into dragon veins to protect the peace of the people on earth.
He was atoning for her!
The blue dragon without dragon tendons quickly fell apart under the thunder of the gods. The dragon balls, bones, scales, and blood scattered on the earth, and his soul was torn and dissipated in the air.
Lin Qingyin, who was holding the backtracking stone, saw this scene and cried to heaven. She prayed to heaven that she would willingly exchange her god position for the blue dragon’s soul.
