Chapter 659 May you...be free!
"Jiang Er, you're here too. Where are Qing Yu and the others?"
Lin Qiye entered the simply furnished room and was somewhat surprised to see Jiang Er.
Jiang Er pinched the hem of her skirt. "They helped Fatty set up a Bagua formation on the city's border, which has blocked all the invasion of disasters, so I came back to check on the situation."
Her voice sounded somewhat guilty.
Upon hearing this, Lin Qiye nodded with a puzzled look in his eyes.
He didn't dwell on it too much, but instead focused his attention on Jiang Ye on the bed.
“I’ve found a hospital. She will hand the hospital over to Jiang Ye, and perhaps then she will understand Jiang Ye’s true thoughts.”
Lin Qiye gave Ji a push.
Instantly, Nix and Jiang Er's gazes fell on Ji Nian.
The latter, somewhat apprehensive, stretched out his right hand and waved to the two of them, "Hello!"
Nix and Jiang Er exchanged a glance and gradually understood.
It seems that Ji Nian hasn't told Lin Qiye the truth yet.
Nyx stood up and gave up her seat. "Go ahead."
Her voice was elegant and melodious, which stunned Ji Nian for a while before she walked to Jiang Ye's bedside.
Ji Nian slowly reached out and placed her hand on Jiang Ye's chest.
She closed her eyes, and her consciousness sank into the Gods' Mental Hospital.
After a brief sense of spatial displacement, I found myself wearing a white coat, standing in a desolate courtyard.
A prompt then appeared before my eyes.
[Acting Dean, congratulations on successfully finding Dean Jiang Ye. Thank you for your hard work.]
[Hospital authority is currently being transferred...]
Ji Nian glanced at the notice speechlessly, leaned against a pillar of the ward building, looked at the misty sky, and slowly squatted down.
He placed his hands on his cheeks, quietly waiting for the handover of hospital authority to be completed.
"I wonder what Lin Qiye will do after he finds out the truth?" Ji Nian asked with some concern.
……
Aside from the mental illness of the gods.
Lin Qiye saw that Ji Nian and Jiang Ye were handing over the hospital and nodded slightly.
"By the way, Mother... Nyx, what exactly is the choice I was talking about?"
Upon hearing this, both Nix and Jiang Er's eyes trembled simultaneously.
Nix lowered her eyes and thought for a while before walking to Lin Qiye's side. "Child, you should still call me Mother. There's no need to be so formal."
Lin Qiye's eyes widened slightly, and he gave a soft "Mother".
Nyx smiled. "The choice I'm asking you to make will determine whether Jiang Ye can completely assimilate Azathoth."
Lin Qiye's eyes lit up.
He gave all his power to Jiang Ye in order to fight against Azathoth, and to completely assimilate him to establish the Fifth Universe.
If I can help Jiang Ye complete this task, it will be a way of giving myself closure.
"Mother, tell me, what can I do?" he asked, his face filled with excitement.
Nyx's expression was unusually solemn. He bit his lower lip slightly and remained silent for a long time.
Just because Lin Qiye called her "mother," she couldn't make him risk his life for all of this.
"Mother, what's wrong? Tell me!"
Lin Qiye sensed something was wrong and asked anxiously.
But Nyx kept his head down and didn't say a word.
Lin Qiye had no choice but to turn to Jiang Er, stepping forward to grab her shoulders. "You know too, don't you? Why won't you tell me? What are you hiding?"
"Team, Captain..." Jiang Er's voice trembled slightly as she bit her lip, clearly unable to hide it any longer.
Tears welled up in her eyes. "Because... the final step in Jiang Ye's complete assimilation of Azathoth was you!"
I?
Lin Qiye was taken aback, and slowly released Jiang Er. "Me? What?"
Jiang Er glanced at Nix with tears in her eyes, and the latter nodded with a sigh.
She continued, "Chen Ling of the Nine Realms is indeed the key to unlocking the fusion of the Three Realms, but the key is not himself, but his heart!"
"The heart!" Lin Qiye was shocked.
Jiang Er nodded and told Lin Qiye the whole story.
From the moment An Qingyu teleported the three out of the battle, to the moment Lin Qiye's heart crossed the void and was snatched by Chen Ling.
Finally... when Lin Qiye achieved the supreme godhood, the flashing of the Crimson Star echoed his achievement.
Bang!
Upon hearing this, Lin Qiye involuntarily took two steps back, bumping into a cup on the table, which shattered on the floor.
"So, my heart actually belongs to Chen Ling?"
“No,” Nyx said. “It’s just that someone imbued Chen Ling’s information into your heart, making it the key to unlocking the fusion of the three realms.”
"You should know this person."
Lin Qiye's pupils suddenly contracted as he recalled the process of fusing with Azathoth's body, and his fists slowly clenched.
"So... only by sacrificing my heart to Akahoshi can I help Eno complete the final assimilation?"
Nix and Jiang Er remained silent, their expressions grave.
Lin Qiye understood, and walked unsteadily to the bedside, his eyes reflecting Jiang Ye's image.
"I see!"
Lin Qiye looked at Jiang Ye, a smile appearing on his lips, "Help me take good care of him."
With that, he vanished from the room in a flash.
"Team..." Jiang Er wanted to call out to him, but all the choices were in Lin Qiye's hands, and she couldn't do anything about it.
Nyx gazed at the deep blue aurora outside the window and clenched her fists.
……
In the vast universe, countless stars twinkle.
As the space rippled, Lin Qiye lowered his eyelids.
Before me lies a landscape where three different worlds partially intersect.
The bottom is gray, and the left and right sides are red and blue, respectively.
Representing the Gray Realm, the Nine Realms, and Earth respectively, these are three planetary worlds, around which a small, red asteroid revolves.
That is the Crimson Star!
"Perhaps this is fate. I once used all living beings as pawns, and now I have become a pawn myself!"
"However... Jiang Ye! I'm not discouraged at being your pawn!"
"I owe you this."
Lin Qiye gazed at the slowly moving red star in the distance and murmured to himself.
He felt guilty all along. From the moment Jiang Ye transmigrated to the old world, he had been following the path he had planned.
Even now, it is the mission I gave Jiang Ye to assimilate Azathoth.
Jiang Ye has never once truly chosen what he wanted.
Lin Qiye's eyes welled up with tears as he slowly floated in the void of the weightless universe.
"Jiang Ye, I thought that after you establish the Fifth Universe, we can still be friends, go to school together, play together... and watch you enjoy the life you want."
"Unfortunately... I no longer have that opportunity, I can only silently wish you well."
Lin Qiye stared at the Crimson Star, and after his figure flickered several times in the universe, he landed on the Crimson Star.
Swish!
He drew the straight sword from his waist, gripped the hilt with both hands, and aimed it at his heart.
Lin Qiye's eyes reflected the memories of his past with Jiang Ye, and a happy smile appeared on his lips.
"Jiang Ye, may you...be free!"
