Chapter 22 Your Healing is Your Best Friend's Sleep
Chapter 22 Your Healing is Your Best Friend's Sleep
Since there was no one to oversee the battle, there was naturally no one to select and focus on the "important segments".
Instead, it maps and stuffs all the memories associated with the anchor point—whether bright or dark, complete or fragmented—into the depths of Qingyuan's consciousness.
The real torrent, unedited, surges forth.
Deduction Scenes & Dialogue in the Medicine Room
"I... I guess I succeeded." Qingyuan looked at the grown-up Bailu, her smile tinged with weary relief. "However, 'transforming' the remnants of the Star God's body..."
Its remnants... I could never do that.
She turned slightly to the side, and six purple-blue insect wings silently unfolded behind her, shimmering with an eerie yet magnificent luster in the light.
"Did I scare you?"
"No way!" the adult Bai Lu replied quickly, almost overlapping with the "No way!" from the little Bai Lu inside the formation at that moment.
Qingyuan smiled, but the smile didn't reach her eyes: "Before General Bu Tian passed away, he used the remaining power of his Dharma Eye to modify part of my subconscious."
It reversed the perception of the sex of the breeding object, since it cannot expand further as long as I don't reproduce.
At first it was a bit... nauseating, but now I've gotten used to it.
It's just too mentally taxing. Could you prescribe some medicine to temporarily suppress this 'desire'?
"I...I'll try. But I can't guarantee it will work."
The medicine was prepared quickly. Qingyuan took it, and shook her head a moment later.
"As expected... the effect is minimal." She rubbed her temples, but her tone remained calm. "Fortunately, there are other ways to suppress it."
"What method?" Bai Lu pressed.
"Amidst occasional doubts and disappointments... I sensed the existence of the 'Selfless Heavenly Lord'."
Qingyuan gazed into the void, her eyes somewhat ethereal. "As long as one actively approaches His embrace, the restlessness of desire, demonic yin, and even dragon madness... will all be weakened."
"That's because your 'existence' is being annihilated!" Bai Lu exclaimed, grabbing her wrist. "You're the backbone of the Immortal Ship now! So many people rely on you to keep them afloat! How could you—"
"The backbone?" Qingyuan gently withdrew her hand and shook her head. "I have already chosen my own ending."
The Celestial Ship is now being hunted by 'Light', and the distance is constantly closing... I will personally go to confront them and buy the Celestial Ship time to escape.
Her tone was as flat as if she were describing tomorrow's weather.

Deduced Scenes: The Endgame and the Coffin
The next image has a dark and somber tone.
Qingyuan lay quietly, her face serene, as if she were merely asleep. The adult Bailu stood beside the coffin, her dragon tail drooping limply, her fingers trembling slightly as she tidied Qingyuan's hair one last time.
(I'm dead.)
(Having exerted all their strength, they severely damaged "Light's Demise." The Immortal Ship... should be able to escape now.)
(But can the dead think?)
A vague idea floated in the void.
She felt no pain, no desire, no gnawing of demonic yin and dragon madness... only a warm, comforting sensation enveloping her entire body.
A gentle yet powerful force was carefully smoothing out the violent and conflicting forces within her, like a spring breeze melting away the ice.
(So comfortable...)
Her instincts awakened, and she began to unconsciously "devour" this power.
A joyful, peaceful, and warm feeling filled my heart.
(very nice……)
(It feels like I've gone back to that afternoon when I could secretly play cards... The Grand Diviner is away on a business trip, and the sun is making me feel lazy...)
(...I'd like a little more...)
(……there is none left?)
My consciousness suddenly became clear for a moment.
(Is this... Lin Yuan Realm?)
She "saw" the scene around her. Before she could even ponder it, a torrent of unfamiliar memories surged forcefully into her consciousness—
That's a memory of White Dew.
In the scene of her memory, Bai Lu was facing an ancient scroll of illustrations, her dragon eyes flashing with a resolute light:
"She can transform the Jianmu tree into a network of energy to protect Luofu... Why can't I transform my own 'Dragon Lord Power' into a network to heal her body?"
"As for how to do it..."
"She can devour the remains of the Insect Lord and merge with parts of the Jianmu tree... This characteristic of 'devouring' and 'merging' has long been her instinct."
I only need to guide her a little... Besides, I've been by her side practicing medicine for many years, and my scent is the most familiar and comforting to her..."
(etc.)
(So, what I just "devoured" was...)
Inside the formation - at this moment
"Waaaaah—!!!" Qingyuan's projection suddenly clutched her head, letting out a shrill scream, "Bailu! Little Bailu! Don't do anything foolish!!!"
Outside the formation, the aura around the chibi version of Jingliu fluctuated violently, and even the form of the cute Yin body began to become unstable, as if it was about to be overwhelmed by the immense grief and resonance.
Bai Hengyi held her tightly, gently comforting her with the power of destiny.

Deducing Images, Memory Continues
Memories of White Dew flow through my mind:
"She can devour my Dragon Lord's power... and thus gain a new life."
The scene switched again, and because there was no one hosting, it appeared somewhat chaotic.
Bai Lu stood with her hands on her hips, puffing out her cheeks, and glared at Qing Yuan: "Anyway, I guess I'll have to take care of you for the rest of my life! You might as well stop trying to suppress me!"
Watching you slide into nothingness is worse than... worse than letting you let go! At least... you'd seem happier!
Another scene unfolds.
Bai Lu pushed two identical-looking drinks in front of Qing Yuan: "Come on, let's test if your sense of taste has returned. Guess which one is the Immortal's Happy Tea?"
Qingyuan pointed to the cup on the left.
"Wrong!" Bai Lu's voice suddenly rose, trembling with tears. "Both cups contained medicine! You secretly took that poison again, didn't you?!"
Why won't you listen to my medical advice?!

Within the Formation - This Moment and the End of the Deduction
The light of the Qiong Guan Zhen, after reflecting this deepest and most painful memory, finally slowly went out.
A dead silence.
Qingyuan's eyes filled with tears, which rolled down her cheeks in large drops. Overwhelmed by the intense emotions she felt, she hugged Bailu and burst into tears.
Bai Lu comforted her and told her to strictly follow the doctor's advice and not to get close to Wuwo Tianjun.
Bai Hengyi sighed softly, reached out as if to touch the person inside the formation, but passed right through the illusory image.
"The culprits behind all this are him and me!" Jingliu's eyes were bloodshot.
Bai Heng's comforting words brought her back to her senses, and she immediately identified the core objective.
Even if the secret technique is in effect, it cannot shake the will of someone of her level overnight.
"Rakshasa, come and die with me!!!"
