Chapter 329
You should know that although the Three Kingdoms feared Xi Luo's curse ability, they also wanted to possess the Wolf-born Child's curse ability.
Just as Zaozao said, if Xi Luo's curse ability was used properly, then his mouth was truly as formidable as an army.
Originally, he had sent people to look for this Wolf-born Child. However, every time he sent people to find him, he was evaded.
This Wolf-born Child Xi Luo had been hiding with the giant wolf pack in the mountains of the frontier region, as if waiting for someone.
Moreover, the two giant wolf cubs that Zhuzhu had just adopted, Qian Duoduo and Mi Duoduo, were the prince cubs of the Wolf King. How could they have coincidentally been encountered by Ruo Qiu's merchant caravan and so easily captured by Ruo Qiu?
What made him even more suspicious was that Xi Luo had previously cast curses on others, but they were all harmless jokes.
He had no grudge with Ruo Qiu, so how could he have cast such a heavy curse on him, causing him to grow old alone?
Ruo Qiu was cursed by the Wolf-born Child, then he gave the culprit wolf cubs to Zhuzhu, and then shifted Xi Luo's attention to Zhuzhu, who was to be the next priestess.
Then, this Wolf-born Child Xi Luo kidnapped Zhuzhu and brought her here... Following a logical sequence, to have Zhuzhu bring him back home!
Thinking of this, Han Ye watched as Xi Luo was bare-bottomed and cheerfully facing Lin Zaozao.
It seemed that everything Xi Luo had done was for today!
Zhuzhu had just been born from the Holy Tree and had never seen Xi Luo before.
So where did Xi Luo, who had been living with the giant wolf pack, get to know Zhuzhu?
Or rather, how could he be sure that Zhuzhu would definitely be nurtured by the Holy Tree? And that he could conveniently wait for her?
Han Ye turned to look at Gu Shan, who was a demoniac, and Xi Luo, the Wolf-born Child. It seemed that the two of them must have had some secret that they were hiding from him.
Just as everyone was worried about the pants issue, Uncle Zhang took off his outer garment and handed it to Lin Zaozao.
"Girl, have that Wolf-born Child wear this for now."
"I'm called Xi Luo now, not Wolf-born Child anymore," Xi Luo objected.
"Right, Xi Luo," Uncle Zhang quickly agreed.
If Xi Luo uttered a curse from his impertinent mouth, he, an adult, would be disgraced in front of all these children. How could he ever show his face again?
They draped Uncle Zhang's outer robe over Xi Luo, just enough to cover his bare body.
"Come on, Luo Luo, let's go home with your sister."
"Okay," Xi Luo said excitedly.
"But what about me? What should I do?" Han Xibei said anxiously, clutching his pants tightly.
"Little Xibei, if you're afraid of embarrassment, then just walk at the back. After all, we're in the deep mountains now, so no one will see if your butt is round or not," Zaozao said.
"Zaozao!"
"Don't call out anymore, Little Xibei. The sun has risen, so we should head back."
Lin Zaozao called out to the others, then took Xi Luo's hand and prepared to walk down the mountain.
"Big Sister, wait a moment," Xi Luo said.
"What is it, Luo Luo?"
"I still have something I haven't brought with me."
Xi Luo turned around and let out a loud wolf howl towards the forest. As soon as the howl ended, Lin Zaozao saw several giant wolves emerge from the dense woods.
The two giant wolves at the front were each carrying a wolf cub in their mouths.
As the giant wolves approached, Lin Zaozao realized that the wolf cubs in their mouths were her Qian Duoduo and Mi Duoduo.
"Qian Duoduo, Mi Duoduo, how did you two end up here?" Lin Zaozao asked in surprise, looking at the two wolf cubs fawning at her feet.
"Big Sister, I brought Da Guoguo and Xiao Guoguo here," Xi Luo said.
"Luo Luo, are they called Da Guoguo and Xiao Guoguo?"
"No, from today on, they will be called Qian Duoduo and Mi Duoduo. Alright, Big Sister, I've brought everything I need, so let's go home now."
Xi Luo helped Lin Zaozao onto the back of a giant wolf, and they headed straight down the mountain.
Watching the departing figures of Lin Zaozao and Xi Luo, the previously silent Ji Fantian approached Han Ye and asked uncertainly, "Prince Han Ye, is it appropriate for us to bring that Wolf-born Child back with his curse ability from that impertinent mouth?"
"There's no question of appropriateness. Little Doctor, you also saw earlier that Zhuzhu was intent on dying, with no life in her eyes.
Since she's willing to bring that Wolf-born Child back, then she's naturally willing to take responsibility for him.
Now I only hope that after Zhuzhu brings that Wolf-born Child back, she won't seek death again.
As for Zhuzhu appointing that Wolf-born Child as a junior priest, so be it! A verbal title is something I can still afford.
Moreover, with Xi Luo's curse ability, he may not be undeserving of the junior priest title."
After saying this, Han Ye didn't care about the others' confused looks and went straight after Lin Zaozao.
As for Gu Shan, he had already followed in secret when Lin Zaozao left.
Riding on the giant wolf's back, Lin Zaozao was initially quite excited. But after a little while, she was so exhausted that she fell asleep.
After all, her current body was only that of a three or four-year-old child. Even though it was the damn system that had forced her growth, her body was still that small.
Adding her unstable condition, the fact that she could endure until now was because she had an adult soul in this child's body.
Sitting behind Lin Zaozao with his arms around her, Xi Luo's golden eyes flashed a brilliant light when he saw that she had fallen asleep.
"Come out!"
"Xi Luo, how did you manage to return with your complete memory?" Gu Shan stood on a tree branch, his eyes unable to conceal his shock. He could return because he himself couldn't be considered human.
But Xi Luo was different - he was a true human being.
Although this was the illusory realm created by him and Princess Ye Xi, this realm shared the same world as their previous life.
How had Xi Luo, as a human, managed to return to this illusory realm with his memory intact?
"Gu Shan, I didn't return with my memory. I've been waiting here for Big Sister to come find me," Xi Luo said.
"What do you mean?"
Gu Shan asked in bewilderment, "What do you mean?"
"Gu Shan, I have placed the heaviest curse on myself, splitting myself into several parts. Even my current soul is shattered.
I took one part of myself with barely any emotions, Lin Luoluo, and brought her to another space-time, to be beside my elder sister's parents, allowing my elder sister to take me back from the orphanage.
I replaced the position of that demoniac with half of my soul, becoming my elder sister's system, preventing that demoniac from harming her.
The remaining half of my soul was split into several people: Lin Wuwu, Lin Wanwan, and my current self.
Gu Shan, all of the split versions of me are merely sacrifices to counter that demoniac.
And my ultimate fate is to be destroyed along with that demoniac."
"Xi Luo, by doing this, will you be able to survive?"
"Gu Shan, I have tied my life to that demoniac's. As long as he doesn't die, I cannot die either. If he dies, I will also die with him. But if I die, it won't harm him in the slightest.
Gu Shan, you believe you have been having a nightmare in this realm for one thousand three hundred years, while my elder sister was nurtured in the Moonlight Flower Tree for a thousand years, with you unknowingly waiting for her for over a thousand years.
In reality, events like today have repeated themselves lifetime after lifetime, with my elder sister tragically dying before my eyes time and again, but I was powerless to stop it.
It's just that all of you have no memory of those heart-wrenching events. Only I retain the complete memories.
Gu Shan, this is the last time, the final lifetime.
That demoniac and I have consumed each other for so many lifetimes. In this life, if he cannot use those two otherworldly souls to occupy my elder sister's destiny, then he will die.
But if he fails, he will disappear from this realm forever. As for me, I will accompany him in death."
"Xi Luo, after doing so much, can you let go of Zaozao?"
"More than possessing her, I hope for my elder sister's happiness."
"Where are those two otherworldly souls? Can you tell? If so, I will kill them right now."
"They have not yet been dragged into this world. When the old priest of the Han Country and its ruler use their own sacrifices, that is when those two otherworldly souls will enter this realm.
Gu Shan, this is our final chance. We must find those two otherworldly souls.
If they are willing to leave of their own accord, that would be best. But if they refuse to leave..."
"You have a way!" Gu Shan stated confidently.
"Yes, I have a way."
As Xi Luo finished speaking, he held out his palm facing upward, and Gu Shan saw a faint image within it.
In that image was the tragic fate of the future Female Emperors of Canglan and Fengshuo Countries.
"This is..."
Gu Shan asked in shock.
"It's something I learned from my elder sister's birth father in a future world, called the Image Recorder.
Taking advantage of the convenience of being her system, I recorded the gruesome states and fates of the Female Emperors of Canglan and Fengshuo after their deaths.
If I show these things to those two otherworldly souls, letting them see the fate they will suffer by heeding the so-called system within them and continually tormenting my elder sister for the sake of power and love, do you think they would still listen to that demoniac's system?"
"No, they would obediently leave this world. Even if they don't leave, they wouldn't listen to that demoniac's words anymore.
But Xi Luo, what if that demoniac controls those two otherworldly souls?
After all, the future Female Emperors of Canglan and Fengshuo were controlled by that otherworldly soul."
"Hmph! He could have completely controlled others before. But now, he cannot.
After going through so many lifetimes, after all the sacrifices I have made, battling him with my life, how could that demoniac have suffered no harm?
In this lifetime, he has become extremely weak, incapable of controlling those two otherworldly souls.
As long as that demoniac cannot control those two otherworldly souls, I have better ways to protect my elder sister."
Xi Luo gently caressed Lin Zaozao's face and said tenderly.
"Xi Luo!"
"What is it?"
"Since you possess the memories of every lifetime, then why are you still naked right now?"
