Primordial Divine Emperor-Chapter 385 - 190: Lifting the Restriction, the Divine Maiden Sect Leader’s Shock (Part 2)
After the two discussed, they finally agreed to remove the restrictions three days later.
But Mu Xin and Mu Yan, who were standing nearby, were extremely nervous upon hearing this, their hearts filled with a mix of emotions, both fearful and hopeful, hoping that the restrictions within their bodies could be silently removed.
After all, with such restrictions within them, it was like carrying a time bomb, their life or death entirely dependent on others’ moods, even spending a lifetime restricted by others, living a life without freedom, it’s suffocating for anyone.
But compared to the desire for freedom, the sisters felt more fear and anxiety, as these restrictions were personally set by the Divine Maiden Sect Leader, not just any ordinary powerful figure. If the Sect Leader detected that their restrictions were lifted, they could end up dying horribly in her wrath.
Ultimately, the sisters were merely insignificant characters, unable to control their own lives. Their attractive figure and appearance could not save them, let alone with the Divine Sect Leader wanting them dead, there wouldn’t be a place in the entire Hundred Broken Mountain Range for them.
Yet two days later, by twilight.
The sisters sat on the edge of the Ark, their legs swaying in the void, gazing far into the distance.
They watched the birds flying freely in the sky, experiencing a freedom they had never enjoyed since birth, not even knowing what freedom truly was.
Sitting on the edge of the Ark, neither sister spoke, as if there was truly a telepathic connection between the twins, understanding each other’s thoughts.
Until night gradually enveloped the entire ’Hundred Sects Battle Domain’.
Finally, big sister Mu Yan spoke: "Mu Xin, are you afraid?"
The fear Mu Yan referred to seemed to be filled with endless emotions and meanings, as she finished speaking, she slowly looked towards her sister Mu Xin.
Mu Xin kept her gaze fixed on the bird in the night sky, seemingly envious that it could fly freely at night, going wherever it wanted, doing whatever it pleased.
Mu Xin didn’t look back at her sister, but showed a heartbreaking smile and quietly said: "Sister, are you afraid?"
Upon hearing this, Mu Yan smiled faintly, then also looked at the bird and said slowly: "Will you regret it? We might both end up dead."
In response, Mu Xin showed no fear but instead a sense of relief, her beautiful eyes filled with serenity, saying: "No, sister, I don’t want to go back to that old hag anymore, I don’t want to live a life always restricted by others. If I could just return home once more, to see it, I wouldn’t die with regrets."
Even if it’s just for a moment of freedom, it’s worth it. Taken away by the Divine Maiden Sect Leader since childhood, the sisters’ whereabouts had always been within ’defined’ boundaries, not having seen their parents even once.
Now, gaining freedom, returning home, and seeing that carefree place satisfied them. If not for encountering that figure, the sisters wouldn’t have seen even a glimmer of hope for freedom. Now it’s right in front of them, and they’re willing to exchange their lives for it.
And the words of the sisters naturally fell into the ears of Ye Xiaofan and the other two. Evident in this pair of twin girls, the three felt nothing but endless despair for the future. It’s not hard to imagine that what Mu Xin and Mu Yan have gone through all these years was likely far from pleasant.
However, Ye Xiaofan and the other two did not interrupt the sisters, seemingly this moment was the most relaxed one in the sisters’ lives, unwilling to disrupt it.
Time slowly passed, and in the blink of an eye, the night was over.
The next morning.
"With apologies."
Ye Xiaofan looked at the sisters sitting cross-legged in front of him, slightly bowed, then exchanged glances with Mo Shiyi before beginning to lift the restrictions.
At this moment, the sisters were extremely nervous, not knowing whether this young man in front of them could break it, wondering how hopeful they were, or whether it would directly reveal the ’secret’ to the Divine Maiden Sect Leader, leading her to kill them instantly.
While the sisters were apprehensive and uneasy, Ye Xiaofan and Mo Shiyi had already started acting.
At the critical moment.
"Wait a moment."
Mu Xin suddenly spoke, and upon hearing this, Ye Xiaofan slightly frowned, but the hint of Martial Soul Power floating in his palm also paused slightly.
At this time, Mu Xin raised her resolute and beautiful face, her bright eyes looking at Ye Xiaofan and said: "Ye Xiaofan, we sisters have never asked anyone before, including the Sect Leader, but could I ask you one thing?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Xiaofan thought for a while. Conducting a Soul Search is best done with the subject’s consent, otherwise, if the soul fully resists, it could likely lead to failure.
Thinking to himself, Ye Xiaofan said faintly: "Tell me, if it’s possible to do, I’d consider it."
Mu Xin smiled gracefully upon hearing this: "Ye Xiaofan, during the process of lifting the restrictions and conducting the Soul Search, my sister and I will not resist. But if lifting the restrictions fails and we are killed by it, can I ask you not to leave us here?"
"If possible, could you take our bodies out and give them to my mother and father? Don’t worry, they’re ordinary people who haven’t awakened the Martial Soul, so they won’t pose any threat to you. We just want to return to our hometown; cultivation was not the path we chose."
The sisters’ wish was simple, to return to their mortal parents, their only wish after being forcibly taken away by the Divine Maiden Sect Leader, also their only regret.
