Signing-In: The Lazy Moon Goddess-Chapter 762: Leaving the Ruins
Yue Xuexia used the divination to check the possible future her godson could have. She can see that his progress of inheritance has somewhat gone awry. Her divination had given her two possible endings. One is a good ending where Ru Yunlan had successfully ascended as a True God but with her interference, he didn’t gain full control over the dao of death and it would take time to complete it. The second one has a bad ending. He had assimilated as the God of Death becoming an embodiment of death but he had lost his emotion becoming a god of dearth devoid of emotion. He even looked at them as strangers which ticked the Moon Goddess.
"Lanyu, it will be dangerous here for a while. Go watch with others in the ruins," said Yue Xuexia.
With a wave of her hand, a small crack opened behind Ru Lanyu and she pushed her in. The latter had fallen back to the ruins at the forest area where the others are.
The Moon Goddess said, "Qiuqiu, I want to use the power I inherited from Lord Shura and Lord Deva."
[No! Your body will not be able to bear it!] The system responded to her request.
Yue Xuexia said, "Qiuqiu, I have no intention of letting this kid to die nor I want to die myself."
[Only for a minute. I will resealed everything after 60 seconds!]
The system compromised and let Yue Xuexia wield her full power in just a minute. After all, her seals were removed, two dominating daos can be felt from her.
The Death God commented, {She is indeed crazy!}
{Master, I don’t feel good.} The death scythe’s spirit said as he was forced to slumber under these two overbearing daos.
The Dao of Shura and Deva can be felt from her suppressing even the remnant soul of the God of Death, the Dao of Death feeling the suppression these two daos are emitting had flatter while fighting for control with Ru Yunlan. However, this was enough for him to win against it.
Upon seeing that Ru Yunlan had taken an upper hand and finally suppressed the Death Qi absorbing everything and refining it at the same time. Only when Yue Xuexia felt that her godson had taken over the control that she asked the system to seal her full abilities once again. Heavenly chains had come to grab her and once again restrained the two absolute daos in her control. The backlash made her cough a few mouthfuls of blood. This time both her soul and vessel were injured. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚
Urgh~
[Xue’er!?]
The system controlled his host’s abilities and used the divine healing skill on her. This slowly soothes the injuries she had suffered from the backlash. The system had checked her body and noticed that it was a lot worse than he expected. Ordinary light healing skill is incapable of healing injuries caused by absolute dao. She would need to slowly heal this time and it would take a few years to completely heal it.
[Xue’er, you currently can barely use your cultivation now. At most, you can only use Peak Mahayama realm even if you ascend in the Immortal World. But there you can heal faster, you should ascend now.]
"Not yet. Only after Yunlan, Ruri and Haerin successfully ascended that I would leave. I don’t want this place to be destroyed just because I leave ahead of time." The Moon Goddess said as she casually wipes the blood strolling at the corner of her lips.
Looking closer her complexion had turned paler this time, with a bit of purplish hue on her lips. This shows how bad her state had become after suffering the backlash. However, Yue Xuexia still looks calm as if the pain coursing her body was never hers. She had become the kind of woman who doesn’t show pain on her face unless she truly couldn’t help it at all.
Seeing her like this, her system, Qiuqiu regrets agreeing to his host’s request. He shouldn’t have unsealed her cultivation even if it was for the sake of her own godson. He couldn’t understand. That boy wasn’t even her own son, just a child of one of her best friends. He would have understood if it was a family member, but Yue Xuexia didn’t even have an ounce of blood relation to that brat. Is it worthy for her to suffer like this for someone no different from a stranger?
The Moon Goddess, as if noticing her system’s thoughts, smiles and lightly pats it. She said, "Don’t get angry. It doesn’t hurt that much."
The system seems to be sulking and didn’t want to care about his host for now.
[...]
Knowing that she had angered her system, Yue Xuexia can only grab it and play with it. While doing so, the black mist around Ru Yunlan had been dismissed and he finally accepted the inheritance. He had now ascended as the God of Death and the successor of the Primordial God of Death. Divinity entered his body and fully transformed from a mortal to a god.
As one of the Primordial Gods on the Exiled Star, everyone was affected by his breakthrough. Those who are undergoing trials of the other gods, got their gods suppressed and they successfully ascended as well. Like Han Haerin and her mother, Lin Ruri. They two had also ascended and become goddesses. One is the Goddess of Flowers and Nature while the other one ascended as the Goddess of Light. That’s how the three announcement of god’s ascension took place.
Yue Xuexia seeing that Ru Yunlan had successfully ascended, she pulled him and the death god back into their world. It would be almost impossible for them to enter through the world array without her permission. They’ver returned to the forest area within the ancient runes. To hide the fact that she was injured, Yue Xuexia only sent back Ru Yunlan and the God of Death.
Her voice echoed in the ears of the group and said, "I had to check the world array just in case. I have opened the exit of the ruins, you guys can come out anytime. Be careful though, the world had announced your ascension so everyone on this planet knew about it."
Before anyone can ask the Moon Goddess what she is going to do, she has already left, leaving them unable to know what to do. A door-like portal appeared beside them. This seems to be the exit to the ancient ruins which Yue Xuexia opened for them.
Ru Lanyu asked, "Why is Xue’er in a hurry to leave? Did something happen?"
{You... didn’t see it?}
The God of Death asked only to get a group of confused eyes landing on him. Clearly, the Moon Goddess must have blocked that scene where she used her real abilities and how she puked blood afterwards. There is also the fact that her complexion had gone bad after what she had done. To avoid worrying them she can only avoid them for now.
Ru Yunlan asked worriedly, "Master, what didn’t we see? What happened to Godmother?"
{It’s nothing. I am tired. Let’s talk after I wake up.}
Avoiding their group, the god of death turned into an orb of soul and returned to Ru Yunlan’s body ignoring the eyes that fell on him. But his question was enough to worry everyone, as the Moon Goddess wouldn’t leave unless something happens.
The Wind Sword God, Xiao Muen, said, "Not good. A lot of people are coming to this place. We should continue our conversation somewhere else."
"Let’s go out first," Han Yoonjun said as he held his wife’s hand who had recently woken up.
Their group passed through the exit not caring for the others they had left behind. Even the monk was dragged with them as they forgot that he is not someone of their world. Unfortunately, as soon as they passed through the door behind them had closed.
Ru Yunlan saw the monk pass through the door last and was stunned, "Why did you come out of the ruins? This is not your world."
"But... the divine one hasn’t given me my contract yet," Monk Xu Jin said. "I can only follow you out with everyone."
"This... can he still go back into the ruins?" Han Haerin asked.
The others looked dumbfounded as well. Now they even dragged someone from another world. Thankfully, this monk isn’t like other cultivators. At least, he had the world in his heart. They looked as Monk Xu Jin was looking around. He can feel that the qi in this world is not as thick as what his world has. However, after spreading his divine consciousness he was shocked with what he saw. Though there are some places that look similar to the noble area from his world, the modern buildings were something he had never seen before and was shocked. He especially likes the temples in this world.
Monk Xu Jin spoke, "Divine one, your world is amazing! There are so many things I haven’t seen before!"
