Rebirth as a Willow Tree, building the strongest tribe in all of eternity - Chapter 533

Chapter 533: Chapter 385: Does the gentleman really have no slightest sense of compassion?_2

“It’s of great significance!” The Willow God turned serious.

“If Mr. Jiang is indeed from the Ancient Fairy Era, he must be all too acquainted with the horrors of the dark turmoil, perhaps even having witnessed it himself.

When all the clans perish and the era comes to an end, the creatures tremble, and everything in the mortal world will turn to ashes. Mass deaths of the common people will litter the starry skies with endless corpses and bones. Doesn’t Mr. Jiang feel the least bit of compassion? Why wouldn’t he stand up and join me in facing the impending chaos?”

The Willow God’s gaze was profound, her eyes shimmering like the moon veiled behind the drifting clouds, her brows like frosted willows.

“I am but a minor sacrificial spirit of a small village, harboring no lofty ambitions in my lifetime. My only hope is to develop the village, and I am bewildered as to why you hold me in such high regard,” Jiang Hui smiled wryly, waving his hand.

“If you are ordinary, then I suspect no one else in this world could be viewed as exceptional!” echoed the Willow God, her words stirring deep within her heart.

Having stayed in Liu Village for so long, apart from enhancing herself, she had been observing the every corner of the village. The deeper her observations, the more astounded she became.

Taking into account everything she had seen on her journey here.

The Willow God strongly believed that the master of Liu Village was likely once a Supreme Giant.

She sensed he was like her – having immersed himself in the dust and chaos, ultimately lying dormant in such a small place, preparing for Nirvana, reviving and regaining his strength.

He must have also witnessed the invasion of the Alien Territory, the horrid sight of the starry sky littered with corpses creating a sea of blood, and life turned to ashes.

Thus, after much hesitation, she couldn’t help but speak up, hoping he would step forward for the sake of countless creatures who would be cast into chaos, to plan and act early, so as to increase their odds of survival when disaster strikes.

The first time she visited Liu Village, she subtly alluded to this matter, but never asked further, and her questions were deflected.

That’s why this time, the Willow God is particularly earnest.

“If the conditions permit, I will certainly not stand idly by!” After a moment of contemplation, Jiang Hui said slowly. He didn’t outright refuse, nor did he outright agree.

“So, you’re saying, if the conditions don’t allow, Mr. Jiang would choose to stand aside. Mr. Jiang, you should realize that these Nine Heavens are not only home to the Ten Thousand Clans but also to you. When that day comes, we can’t escape it. There’s no such thing as conditions allowing or disallowing it!”

As Jiang Hui’s voice faded, the Willow God immediately responded, sounding somewhat like a nagging elder.

If it were someone else, she wouldn’t mind, but her intuition told her that the sacrificial spirit of Liu Village was no ordinary person, perhaps even more mysterious than she had imagined.

At her level, intuition is not baseless; it more often predicts future events, similar to foreknowledge, allowing her to glimpse into the future.

“If you agree to my request, my Lord…. I would willingly become your partner!”

After a short pause, due to Jiang Hui’s lack of reaction, the Willow God sighed and spoke again.

With her perceptive eyes, she had noticed Jiang Hui’s brief moment of shock at seeing her. Although fleeting, it was not missed by her.

She held great confidence in her own beauty.

A woman who had made her name in the Ancient Immortal Era, reaching the realm of Immortality with unparalleled power, not even the Ten Evil could match her. She was able to invade the Alien Territory single-handedly, shaking the surrounding clans with her might. But it wasn’t just her strength that made her stand out, her beauty also set her apart, earning her the title of “Heavenly Woman” in those times.

“???”

Jiang Hui was slightly taken aback.

This was not how he remembered the Willow God!

Moreover, why would she suddenly make such a proposal?

Although it was enticing, he was not a creature that lived by his desires alone. He could have as many women as he desired, given the number of young girls in the village willing to devote themselves to him!

“I am not my true body, but merely a Battle Mark purposely left behind in the Immortal Ancient era. I am fortunate to have been able to survive until now, thanks to Mr. Jiang’s help. Hence, while I may share some similarities with my true body, I am still somewhat different. So, what do you think, Mr. Jiang, will you agree to this proposition?”

The Willow God’s deep eyes shimmered with a glow akin to twinkling stars, seemingly illuminating everything, waiting for Jiang Hui’s answer.

With her personality, even though she was not her true self, saying these words was not easy.

Apart from genuinely valuing Jiang Hui, there was another reason: their true bodies were both Willow Trees.

“I have stood at the top of a mountain, looking out at the sunset and the mortal world. The vastness of the mountains and seas is but a speck in the ocean. Yet, this vast ocean carries our small boats far away. We both know that the Alien Territory is not the root cause of the dark disaster. You can stop it once, but can you stop it twice, thrice, indefinitely? Sooner or later, you will be completely crushed under its wheels, and who will stand up then?

Furthermore, don’t you think that there are some people and powers in these Nine Heavens and Ten Lands that should be annihilated?”
