Chapter 22: Tear Down the Deception
Bai Lian returned to the Queen's side, finding her unharmed.
It seemed that she and Ling Yue were the only two people left in the vast royal city.
Two people.
A city.
A little exciting if she thought about it!
Especially so because this young girl seemed to be very restless in her sleep.
She tossed and turned, causing her clothing to shift and reveal enticing glimpses.
A new task immediately popped out in front of Bai Lian's eyes.
Long time no see!
Bai Lian almost thought she was really a Natural Saint after being called so by so many people.
Task 1 was very eye-catching.
[Task 1: Turn Ling Yue from a girl to a woman in her sleep! (Reward: Unlimited Water)]
The reward was an extremely rare item.
It can be used to refine elixirs, and to refine the best Spirit Tools. It can even be used for drinking.
But...
It's also very dangerous!
If she really did it, someone would surely pop out from behind and stab her in the back.
Moreover, if stabbed, while dealing with the assassin, she couldn't allow Ling Yue to wake up. She has to let Ling Yue continue to "Grow" in her dream.
Well. That's too difficult!
Forget it.
Bai Lian decided to choose Soft Skill +1. (PS: the author didn't write what Task 2 is)
However, Task 1 also provided her with new ideas.
She originally planned to take Ling Yue and escape. With some luck, she might avoid the pursuit of the Nanwang Country ancestor.
But now she decided to wander in Ling Yue's dream.
Bai Lian sprinkled a lot of phantom butterflies around the bedroom, so that no one would disturb her.
The temperature dropped sharply.
In the spacious bedroom, Bai Lian walked slowly towards Ling Yue.
She doesn't know much magic, but it's easy to intrude into an ordinary person's dream.
Just squeeze in.
A bit later.
Walking through the fog, Bai Lian found herself in a sandy area.
The world in Ling Yue's dream was also dark.
The night sky was dark red, and the moon was a blood moon.
Bai Lian lowered her head and detected a row of footprints stretching into the distance.
These were made by Ling Yue.
The girl walked alone into the boundless desert.
She had been walking.
Even she herself didn't know how long she had walked.
Looking back, Bai Lian couldn't see the source of the footprints.
In this dream, except for Bai Lian who burst in unexpectedly, Ling Yue was the only living creature.
The evening wind cleared away a layer of sand, exposing a pale skeleton.
Bai Lian thought she understood what this was all about.
Likely, this is Ling Yue's psychological trauma.
In the cultivation world, this is called an internal demon.
Come on.
After recovering her memories related to the game, Bai Lian found herself either fighting with an internal demon, or on the way to fight an internal demon!
As said in the game introduction, this world is full of troubled girls.
She floated gently towards Ling Yue.
Like a ghost in white.
The girl didn't even notice her existence.
The girl walked forward step by step, like an emotionless automaton, who could only think of moving forward.
It's the last night. Let me walk this endless desert once more. I will regard it as a goodbye!
Bai Lian remembered the lamps in the bedroom.
Each lamp had the effect of increasing energy.
It was strange, but now she figured it out.
The massage, candles, and lights were all so Ling Yue didn't fall asleep.
Asleep, she would come to this world of despair.
However, Ling Yue is not a cultivator. No matter how much she doesn't want to sleep, she would still fall asleep.
Only the eternal sleep would grant her relief.
Bai Lian finally understood Wen Su's concern. Ling Yue is his only daughter!
......
Bai Lian removed her disguise to reveal her original appearance.
She understood.
Wen Su is probably the same kind of person as Master An Lan. He clearly cares about Ling Yue, but he doesn't show it to Ling Yue because he wants to look dignified in front of his daughter.
Bai Lian sighed and said to Ling Yue, "You don't understand your father's love for you!"
Bai Lian had a headache.
This unlucky girl...
Come on.
If Ling Yue had been more clever or foolish, she would have been deceived!
"It's you!"
Ling Yue's eyes widened.
She immediately became angry, "Didn't you say you came here to find someone? Why did you find me?"
"Your father entrusted me with saving you."
"You're lying to me again!"
Bai Lian said, "Everything I said is true!"
Ling Yue still sneered, "You said you were my father just now."
That's a white lie!
Damn!
Bai Lian was also angry.
Since you don't listen to my kind advice!
Then there is only one way left!
She said, "I am not a person who likes to use force. If I have enough time, I can explain it slowly so you understand my sincerity."
Ling Yue stepped back and said, "Do you plan to kidnap me?"
Bai Lian nodded, "Yes, but I won't do anything to you. I will bring you back tomorrow after the ancestor worship ceremony is over. And..."
She smiled.
"Maybe we won't have to wait until then."
Once those who hid in the dark learned she was going to take Ling Yue away, they wouldn't just watch.
Ling Yue panicked.
As an ordinary person, she can't resist Bai Lian.
If this continues, she can only watch the opportunity slip away from her eyes.
Why did things turn out like this?
Ling Yue grew so anxious she felt her head was about to explode.
Bai Lian walked towards her.
She waved her hand desperately, "No, no, don't come here, I..."
She remembered what had happened during the day.
She did know Bai Lian.
The spies in the city told her exactly what Bai Lian had done in the city.
She could recognize Bai Lian not only because she remembered everyone in the royal city.
Ling Yue hurriedly said, "Can you look after those in Nanwang City..."
"Just because I can't watch them die, I want to stop you!"
Bai Lian stopped beside Ling Yue.
She reached out her hand, but drew it back when she was about to touch Ling Yue.
Standing in front of her was not a queen, but a poor girl who had been wandering in her spiritual trauma for 12 years.
Bai Lian sighed, "Of course, it's not your fault. This is the first time we met. You don't trust me, you misunderstand me, and I can understand. I'm good at empathy! As I said before, it's this world's fault. If it wasn't because of that unknown Immortal who died here, the Sand Region would not have become like this."
"I..."
Ling Yue froze.
This is different from what she imagined.
Bai Lian continued, "If it turns out that I was overly worried, I will be responsible for moving all the people in Nanwang Country outside and helping them rebuild their homes, so that you can continue to be their queen. Although I am poor, I can still afford the traveling expenses."
Ling Yue wondered if she had heard something wrong.
"But!" Bai Lian stared at Ling Yue, "If it turns out that I was right, remember to apologize to me!"
After saying so, Bai Lian disappeared from the sea of sand.
Ling Yue stood there for a long time without saying anything.
The cultivators she had seen have always been aloof, looking down on mortals like gods.
But Bai Lian is different.
She is nothing like a cultivator.
When she first appeared in the royal city, she clearly could kidnap her, but she didn't.
Ling Yue found herself awakened when she contemplated.
She left her dream and returned to her bedroom. She found herself lifted up by a force.
"Where are you taking me?"
Ling Yue didn't hear Bai Lian's reply, but she became utterly shocked.
The whole royal city and even the whole of Nanwang City were shocked.
In the dark.
A dark blue light emerged from where the altar was.
Stabbed into the sky like a long lance.
"He's worried!"
