Her gaze shifted slightly, landing on Shun Liuxing, before returning to Zhang Yi after a moment, like a sharp needle piercing the heart.
Zhang Yi remained calm and slowly replied, "Because if we don't do this, Samael's seal will break prematurely. At that time, the entire moon will be destroyed, and all living beings will vanish in the collapse. Then, neither the Dark Moon Empire nor the Radiant Moon Empire will exist."
"Of course, that includes you and everything you own."
As he spoke, he stretched out a hand.
A black gem appeared in the palm of his hand, as black as ink, with a strange, eerie glow flowing through it.
"This is something the Black Moon priests entrusted to me to give to you."
The valley suddenly fell silent.
The Night Witch's gaze froze instantly as she stared at the gem, remaining silent for a long time.
"This aura... it's hers."
She finally spoke, her tone tinged with complexity.
The sound was ethereal, yet it conveyed a profound and thought-provoking meaning.
"It turns out to be a message from the current First Black Moon Priest..."
Burning Bones suddenly turned around and looked at the Night Witch.
Does this mean that his last support, his grandmother, is going to abandon them?
His eyes were filled with doubt, yet he dared not interrupt at that moment.
At this moment, they could only desperately hope that the Night Witch would protect them, as if grasping at a straw.
Shunliuxing gripped Fengu's arm tightly, feeling an indescribable atmosphere enveloping him.
The Night Witch lowered her head and gently closed her eyes.
The dark moonlight fell again, making her figure seem even more ethereal.
"I have seen the future."
She spoke slowly, her voice sounding as if carried by a sorrowful wind from a thousand years ago.
"I have seen it all come to an end in destruction."
The voice of the Night Witch echoed under the night sky, distant and profound, resonating in the hearts of everyone present.
"It was a scene of profound sorrow. The universe was coming to an end, and all races were heading towards their demise. All the efforts made by the Moon People over the past billions of years had ultimately been in vain."
"Human beings cannot defy fate; everything is inevitable."
"Just like a spark, it will eventually burn itself out and become a flame that illuminates the universe. No one can stop it; this is the inevitability of fate."
"That's why I chose to escape, hiding in this Dark Sun Forest, thinking I could escape that cruelty. But in the end... nothing can be changed."
Her voice gradually faded, as if the weight of time had bent her back.
Finally, she opened her eyes and looked at Fen Gu. Her gaze was no longer indifferent, but filled with maternal tenderness.
"Child, fate cannot be changed. But how fate brings you is up to you. The decision is yours."
Burning Bones' body trembled, and his blood seemed to boil at that moment.
He knew that his grandmother would not choose to help them.
In fact, he had anticipated this long ago, and he also knew that his actions were going against the will of Heaven.
But he was unwilling to accept it!
Why should people believe in fate?
Is it impossible for people to change their own destiny?
Is it because of the word "fate" that a young girl in the prime of her life has to be sacrificed?
No, he absolutely disagrees with that!
He clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and his voice, strained from the depths of his throat, was filled with an overwhelming determination: "Since that's the case... then let me decide for myself! I will duel him!"
He suddenly raised his head, his gaze fixed on Zhang Yi.
Those eyes burned with anger, yet also shone with determination.
"If you want to take Shunliuxing away from me, then let's fight!"
"If I win, you are not allowed to disturb my life with Shunliuxing! No matter what the future holds, I will protect her with my own hands!"
Shunliuxing shuddered, and tears welled up uncontrollably.
She reached out to grab Fen Gu, but he gently patted the back of her hand to comfort her.
Burning Bones' gaze was as firm as a flame, unwavering in the slightest.
Zhang Yi watched all this quietly, his eyes darkening slightly.
