Sanctuary Paradise

Chapter 469: Meeting Wu Yue Again
"No wonder this place is highly recommended in travel guides. This scene alone is probably enough to make many people remember it forever, right?"

Under the moonlight, Xin Lailai looked at the magnificent scenery in front of him and sighed. At the same time, he and Ling Yuzi came to the outside of the teleportation tower and looked around.

Looking around, he could see that there was no one around the lakeshore that was glowing with a light blue fluorescence. As a tourist destination with such beautiful scenery, it normally could not be as deserted as he saw.

However, the prerequisites for coming to Moonlight Lake are a bit too harsh. Not only do you need to pay a high teleportation fee, but you must also have the mark of the Void Tree or Paradise Camp, and have the merit of killing abyss creatures in the notarized records. Otherwise, you won't even be qualified to set foot in this area that was blessed by the former Silver Moon Wolf clan.

You should know that in the ancient times, this Moonlight Lake was a holy place specially used to baptize the bravest warriors of the Silver Moon Wolf clan. If the pure-blooded Silver Moon Wolf bloodline had not been cut off in this era, they would never have had the chance to come to such a place when they were in the second stage.

——In fact, even now, those who are able to visit Moonlight Lake are basically extremely strong people.

After all, there are only two ways to obtain the Void Tree's mark in the void under normal circumstances:
One is when one's own level reaches the absolute strongest, at which time the Void Tree will directly distribute it, which is equivalent to a recognition of those strong people who can reach the absolute strongest level through their own efforts.

Another way is to reincarnate as a core member into a Void Clan that gave birth to the strongest person and who is still alive. The Void Tree will distribute different Void Tree brand quotas to each strongest person according to their own level, as a welfare benefit after becoming the strongest person.

In addition to these two methods, there is another special case, which is that if you make a great contribution to the Void Tree by chance, the Void Tree will usually reward you with a Void Tree Mark, but this is a special channel and is not suitable to be included in the regular method.

Simply put, due to the limitation on the number of brands in the void, many people cannot enter the Moonlight Lake even if they have enough money. Although the people in the Paradise camp have no shortage of brands, it is basically impossible for anyone to spend hundreds of thousands of soul coins just to enjoy the scenery.

At the same time, there is another most important reason, that is, the Moonlight Lake is not at its most spectacular period now. If it is described as a tourist attraction, it is equivalent to a garden that is still half a year away from its flowering period. Therefore, anyone with a normal mind will basically choose to appreciate the Moonlight Lake when it is truly "blooming" after seeing the high ticket price, rather than coming now to pay a sum of money and being cheated.

Even he, only dared to travel to Moonlight Lake with the card opened by the Gilelyu Family after asking the Saint Seat briefly and getting the other party's guarantee. Otherwise, even if the Gilelyu Family said that the teleportation expenses would be reimbursed in full, he would not dare to come directly to this place. It's just like someone giving you a blank check and asking you to fill it out as you like, but you can't really add zeros to the end without restraint.

"Laila, look over there, it looks like it's perfect for a picnic?"

Suddenly, Ling Yuzi looked in a certain direction, pointed to a flat open space, and said.

"Well, it's indeed suitable, so I chose it there."

Xin Lailai turned her head to look, and after watching for a while, she nodded in approval. Without any hesitation, she and Ling Yuzi took the two little ones and walked quickly to the flat ground that Ling Yuzi had his eyes on. Then, together with Ling Yuzi, they took out various picnic utensils and plates of delicious food that were so delicious that one could not control oneself just by smelling them from the storage space.

“Aaaaah!” “Ahhhhh!”

The two little guys, who were originally staying on the two people, couldn't stay any longer after smelling the tempting fragrance. They immediately climbed onto the long carpet excitedly and picked up the bowls and chopsticks impatiently.

"Haha, don't worry, don't worry. Dad has brought a lot of delicious food this time, and he has also specially prepared the dishes you like!"

Xin Lailai looked at the two extremely excited little guys, smiled and touched each other's heads, with a warm look in her eyes.

"Wow! It's really delicious! Lailailailai, what is this brain made of?"

"Uh, let me think...it seems to be a kind of void beast called Star Dream Whale?"

"Star Dream Whale...Laila, how about we catch one and raise it for food in the future?"

"Although it's very tempting, if I remember correctly, even a juvenile Star Dream Whale seems to be a seventh-level dominant creature. If these dishes are not specially processed, I'm afraid we would burst after eating a single bite."

"Hmm...Is it only possible when I reach the seventh level? That's not possible. Before that, it would be better to use your brains instead, Lailai? It's cheap and tastes good."

"Um... Ling Yuzi, please don't say such scary things so seriously, Xiao Bai and the others are still here."

"But this is really cost-effective. Besides, Lailai, every time you complete a deep treatment, there will be a lot of brain left. It would be such a waste if we throw it away!"

"This...if you think about it carefully, it does seem a bit wasteful. Although they are all discarded waste, if you think about it from another perspective, they are also the flesh and blood of some second-level extraordinary life forms. Whether they are used as alchemical materials or as nutrients for growing plants, they seem to be quite suitable."

"Uh-huh?"

"Hey, don't listen, little Pu, Dad is talking to Mom about adult matters!"

“Ahhh, ahhhhh!”

"What? You said that using your own poop as food is not as good as using your dad as food?"

"Pfft, haha, hahaha! Lailai, you're not as good as your daddy?"

"……watch out!"

“Haha, hahaha… No, stop scratching me, Lailai, I was wrong! Xiaobai, come and save mommy!”

"Aiya!" "Hey! Xiaobai, how could you betray me so quickly!"

"Xiaobai is awesome! He helps mommy stop daddy for a while..."

By the lake, a family of four were playing and chatting carefree. Later, Xin Lailai even took out a board game from somewhere and started playing excitedly with Ling Yuzi, Xiao Pu and Xiao Bai.

Time passed by bit by bit, but due to the special nature of Moonlight Lake, the scene in the sky did not change much, so people could only use other methods to judge how much time had passed.

After finishing another two-person card game, Xin Lailai looked at the two little ones who had wandered to the lake to play, and she and Ling Yuzi looked at each other, and they both smiled warmly at the same time.

“It feels like we haven’t been able to relax like this in a while.”

"Yeah, I remember the last time I was so happy, it seemed to be during Demon Slayer World, right? I remember you went fishing empty-handed many times back then, Lailai?"

"Well, there's no need to mention this kind of thing anymore. My basic luck value was only 1 point at that time, so it's normal to have no luck. If you let me go there again now, I promise to catch a grand slam for you!"

Xin Lailai coughed lightly, patted his chest and assured confidently, even deliberately stopping his movements here, as if he was taking a close-up shot, and then...

“Puff!” “Puff!”

After a few seconds, the two people who had been holding back their laughter to the limit could no longer hold back the smiles on their faces and laughed out loud at the same time.

"Haha, Lailai, you looked so stupid just now, it was like you were saying that you are a fool!"

"No way, and you're obviously not that good, Ling Yuzi!"

The two of them were arguing with each other, constantly complaining about each other, but the smiles on their faces were even more intense than before.

"Huh... I feel much better all of a sudden. How about you, Ling Yuzi?"

After playing for a while, Xin Lailai finally calmed down and let out a long sigh of relief. He lay on his back on the grass, looking at the huge bright full moon in the sky, and said in a light tone. "Well, it feels like I have been holding it in for a long time and finally let it out. I feel like my mind has become a lot more relaxed all of a sudden."

Ling Yuzi, who was also lying on the grass, nodded slightly, and together with Xin Lailai, he quietly appreciated the scene in front of them and said with a smile.

A peaceful evening breeze blew by, ruffling their hair. Xin Lailai felt the breeze brushing against her face, gently held Ling Yuzi's hand, crossed her legs, and just closed her eyes to take a rest.

Ling Yuzi on the side felt the touch from his palm, a gentle smile crossed his lips, and he also closed his eyes lightly, lying on the grass with Xin Lailai, enjoying the peaceful evening breeze together.

then……

A wisp of refreshing floral scent drifted silently into the nostrils of the two people, causing them to open their eyes in confusion.

Flower scent? Are there any gardens near Moonlight Lake?

A hint of confusion flashed across Xin Lailai's eyes. He habitually turned his head to look in the direction of the flower fragrance, and then he was stunned:
Not far to their left, they saw an isolated figure in the snow that appeared out of nowhere.

Hair as bright as moonlight fluttered in the breeze. The veil woven with an unknown material danced lightly in the moonlight, revealing the perfect skin like a work of art hidden underneath.

As graceful as a startled swan and as beautiful as the moon.

Just like a fairy in the moon who has fallen into the human world, the white-haired and blindfolded woman just standing there makes people wonder what kind of scenery is worthy of her.

However, compared to the other party's stunning appearance, what really stirred up a storm in Xin Lailai's heart was the identity of the white-haired woman in front of him:

One of the three heroes of the Golden Age, the number one person under the White Night recognized by the star world today, a legendary existence who once brought him and Ling Yuzi unimaginable opportunities. Today, he meets them again in this way.

There is no moon in the paradise of reincarnation.

In an instant, an intense feeling of tension that made it hard to breathe arose in Xin Lailai's heart. Unlike the first time they met, after knowing the other person's true identity, even just looking at the other person standing there was enough to bring enormous psychological pressure.

"Did that drop of Moon Spirit Crystal bring you any trouble?"

Suddenly, a clear and pleasant voice came from the white-haired woman's mouth and fell into the ears of Xin Lailai and Ling Yuzi. The two were startled for a moment, and then they quickly shook their heads.

"No... no! It is better to say that it is because of the help of the senior that we were able to obtain a great opportunity. From the results, it should be that the two juniors owe the senior a favor for achieving enlightenment!"

Upon hearing this, Xin Lailai hurriedly got up from the ground, and together with Ling Yuzi, bowed to the white-haired woman, and spoke in an extremely respectful tone.

"Really... that's good."

The white-haired woman didn't seem to care about Xin Lailai's tone. She just stood there quietly, looking in the direction of Moonlight Lake, and said calmly:

"Your swords have completed their settling process. This is very good."

"Thank you for your praise, Senior. Without your guidance, we would probably still be wandering outside the gate of the Path of Sword."

Xin Lailai maintained his bowing posture and spoke in an extremely humble manner, but the white-haired woman shook her head slightly when she heard it.

"You can't teach me how to use a sword. Your sword skills come from accumulation and sedimentation. They have nothing to do with me."

"I am the junior who spoke nonsense, please forgive me, senior."

"It doesn't matter."

The white-haired woman shook her head slightly, looked in the direction of Xin Lailai, and said:

"Also, why do you have so many sins of killing?"

Kill evil?
Hearing the white-haired man's words, Xin Lailai's pupils shrank slightly, and he instantly realized what the other party was referring to. A chill rose behind him. After a moment of silence, he answered truthfully:
"Replying to the senior, in order to gain benefits in the last world, the two of us chose to massacre millions of people in a city in the derivative world. The killing that the senior is referring to may have originated from this."

Xin Lailai spoke calmly, without any sign of hesitation on her face, as if she was describing something that was a matter of course.

"Millions? Hmm... do you feel ashamed?"

"I feel guilty, but I have no regrets."

"Why no regrets?"

"The wishes of the younger generation are for my own sake. Taking care of my relatives and friends is the limit. I have no extra mercy to share with others. That's all."

Xin Lailai raised his head and looked at the white-haired woman whose eyes were covered with a black cloth and could not be seen. He answered calmly with determination in his eyes.

Yes, he has no regrets.

Among the two million people who died in the Hellsing world, there might be innocent people, or people who were as desperate as he was and longed to be saved. But even if he had to do it a hundred times, he would only make the same decision. Even if he knew the risks of their next world in advance, he would probably even go further and do something even more extreme.

Unless the Hellsing world is replaced by a normal native world, as long as he is facing a group of native life forms in the derivative world that will be refreshed as soon as the world is reset, he will always do the same thing.

——Because, only in this way can he increase his chances of survival, live to accompany Xiaobai and the others to grow up, and keep everything he cherishes now.

——He is not a savior saint, but just a contractor, a performer, a husband, and a father. He takes good care of Xiaobai and Xiaopu and lives up to the expectations of 83203 and others. These are the limits and boundaries of his humanity. He cannot take care of anything beyond that.

Therefore, be it once or a hundred times, no matter how many times, as long as the result is the same, he will never regret it!

"You have no more mercy? I see. However, even if you have no regrets, killing will only deepen your sins, which is not a good thing."

"I know this, so if you are not happy with this, you can reprimand me. I will definitely change my ways and try my best not to commit murder again. This is the favor I owe you."

"No need to do that. I just happened to be in a good mood and came back to visit the old place. I happened to see you here, so I wanted to exchange a few words."

The white-haired blindfolded woman said calmly, and continued to look at the Moonlight Lake in front of her. After a long time, she spoke again:

"As for the question just now, I was just curious. Since you are not confused by the sin of killing, then what exactly is confusing you?"
