Keyboard Immortal - Chapter 2918
Chapter 1431: The Transaction
Zuan was greatly shocked. Although he had some suspicions, he hadn’t expected her to actually be the Goddess of Love and Beauty; her disguise had been too convincing before.
“Wait a minute, you clearly perished before. These are conversations between my remnant soul and me after your fall. How do you know them?” He immediately realized something was amiss.
“Don’t use your mortal mind to understand the existence of a true god. Time may flow linearly for you, but it’s not for us. What happened during the Order Ceremony, I naturally know immediately.” The Goddess of Love and Beauty smiled truly like spring flowers in full bloom, making the entire space seem dreamlike.
Zuan was also slightly stunned, and had to admit that she truly deserved the title of Goddess of Love and Beauty.
However, he quickly regained his composure: “What exactly are you plotting all this for?”
“Of course, I’m plotting to get what I want,” the Goddess of Love and Beauty floated to his side, her cloud-like veil gently brushing against his face, making him feel itchy and his heart flutter. “Now I’m asking you, not the other way around. Will you choose me or those two women outside?”
A half-smile appeared on her face: “Last time you gave me an answer I didn’t like. I hope you won’t disappoint me this time.”
Zuan sighed: “Do you know what a man’s biggest flaw is?”
“Lust?” The Goddess of Love and Beauty also became somewhat interested.
“No, it’s greed,” Zuan made a grasping gesture with his hand, “I don’t want to make a choice, I want them all!”
Hearing his answer, the Goddess of Love and Beauty was first taken aback, then burst into laughter: “You’re the most audacious person I’ve ever met, actually saying such things in front of a true god.” Then
her expression turned cold: “What do you take me for?”
“Of course, I take you for the most beautiful woman in the world,” Zuan laughed.
A hint of a smile appeared in the dreamy eyes of the God of Love and Beauty: “Unfortunately, such crude flattery is useless; you still have to make a choice.”
“If I choose you, will you then accuse me of being heartless and ruthless?” Zuan’s smile vanished. “They were your sisters; do you really want to kill them?”
The God of Love and Beauty’s expression changed: “Do you know something?”
“Can you protect this world from being spied upon by other beings?” Zuan didn’t rush to answer.
A strange glint flashed in the eyes of the Goddess of Love and Beauty: “Of course, but my patience has its limits.”
Zuan stared intently at her exquisite face: “Actually, I forgot to mention something. Should I call you the Goddess of Love and Beauty, or the First… Goddess of Earth?”
The Goddess of Love and Beauty’s expression changed completely: “How do you know this?”
She then realized: “Could it be that Mili or Meng told you? No, that doesn’t fit their nature.”
“Never mind how I know. The question now is, what exactly are you plotting?” Zuan said in a deep voice, “Back then, you pretended to submit to the Second True God, and secretly helped the First True God reincarnate. Were you simply trying to protect them, or were you planning to unite with them one day to make a comeback?”
“It seems you know quite a bit,” the Goddess of Love and Beauty gradually calmed down after her initial shock, “What else do you know?”
Zuan frowned slightly: “I’ve already shown my sincerity, yet you say nothing. How can I trust you?”
“Now it’s you begging me, not me begging you.” The Goddess of Love and Beauty chuckled. “I advise you to hurry. Those two outside can’t hold out much longer. After all, they haven’t awakened the relevant memories, and their strength is not enough to contend with me.”
Zuan said in a deep voice, “I also know that the myriad realms are facing a terrifying end, one that even you true gods cannot withstand.”
The Goddess of Love and Beauty’s eyes flickered slightly: “Continue…”
“Tell me first which true god they each corresponded to back then.” Zuan wasn’t led by the nose.
“There’s no need to hide it. Xihe is the reincarnation of the first God of Light, and Princess Liuli is the reincarnation of the first God of Thunder.” The Goddess of Love and Beauty smiled.
Zuan pondered secretly. Xihe was the Sun Goddess, representing light and warmth, while Princess Liuli was a warlike Asura. Thunder also has a warlike aspect. It seemed that all of this was traceable.
He then said, “Over the years, every true god has been trying to fight against the impending end in their own way. I suppose what you’ve done is the same.”
The Goddess of Love and Beauty remained noncommittal.
Zaun continued, “But after all these years, you should all know that you can’t succeed on your own.”
“Heh,” the God of Love and Beauty chuckled, “So you’re here to be their advocate. They were so powerful and arrogant back then, while we suffered so much. Now they want our help with just a few words? Why should we?”
Zaun’s heart stirred. “It seems you still have a stronger affinity for the First God.”
“Of course,” the God of Love and Beauty sneered repeatedly. “I am a true god. Even after they appeared, I remained a true god, but I was branded a traitor, distrusted, and ultimately killed by a coalition of true gods. Do you think I would still help them?”
“This isn’t about helping them, it’s about helping myself and the people I care about,” Zaun said seriously. “Isn’t this what you’ve been doing all this for? But right now, it’s clearly impossible for a single true god to do it.”
“Alright, you don’t need to play the persuader anymore,” the God of Love and Beauty, being a true god, naturally wouldn’t be swayed by a few words. “I won’t help them, but now it’s your turn to choose. Will you help them or me?”
“I don’t even know what you’re doing, so how can I help you?” Zaun said with a wry smile.
The Goddess of Love and Beauty chuckled softly, “I couldn’t tell you these things before, but now that you know so much, it saves me a lot of trouble. Telling you some won’t hurt.”
“I’ve been trying to create the Six Paths of Reincarnation, so that even if people die, their souls have a place to go and can be reborn. Of course, according to the laws of heaven and earth, after the Six Paths of Reincarnation, all memories of the previous life must be erased.” A certain light shone in the Goddess of Love and Beauty’s eyes. “This way, even if the end times come and everyone dies, they can still be reborn through the Six Paths of Reincarnation.”
Zu’an frowned, “But what if the Six Paths of Reincarnation disappears after the end times?”
The Goddess of Love and Beauty fell silent, clearly having considered these questions as well. “The Six Paths of Reincarnation is the most fundamental law of the universe. As long as the universe exists, the Six Paths of Reincarnation will inevitably reappear. No one can guarantee anything in the face of the end times. This is the method I believe has the highest probability of success.”
Zu’an said in a deep voice, “Alright, I will help you with the Six Paths of Reincarnation, but I hope you can tell me which are the reincarnations of the first true gods, and how to restore their memories and strength?”
