Legend Management Bureau Chapter 330

[ … words ]

Shiranui Asuka never expected Du Yu to say such words. She was so frantic she was on the verge of tears.

Yet at this moment, there was not a single person standing on her side.

Yes, she knew that Du Yu’s approach was completely fine from a certain perspective, but it just felt wrong to her.

The eerie, brilliant light descended from the sky, striking Fuxi squarely.

The recall beam had no side effects on those with an Operator’s constitution, but for someone with complete Three Hun and Seven Po, it felt like a direct blow to the soul.

At the exact moment Du Yu and the others vanished, Fuxi’s body suffered yet another heavy blow.

He crashed heavily onto the ground, left with barely a breath of life.

Forcing himself back to consciousness, he slowly crawled toward Nuwa.

As infuriating as all of this was to Fuxi, it was not that difficult to handle…

“You damned Great Pivots…” Fuxi coughed up fresh blood, a savage sneer twisting his face. “To the ends of the earth, I will find you… and tear you to pieces…”

One inch. Two inches.

Fuxi was closing in on Nuwa at an agonizingly slow pace. He felt as though he was on the verge of death, uncertain which would reach him first: his demise or Nuwa.

He softly called out to her a few times, only to find her completely unresponsive.

The silk he had spun from the five-colored clouds back then was originally meant to cut off Nuwa’s sight and hearing to prevent her from causing trouble. Yet now, it had become a deadly burden that was about to kill him.

“Younger sister…!” Fuxi called out a few more times, but Nuwa remained completely unresponsive.

“Damned bastards, what kind of magical treasure did that man use… My shredded wounds will not stop bleeding.”

Fuxi cursed as he dragged himself forward, every movement proving more arduous than the last.

Right at that moment, a pitch-black curtain descended from the sky, instantly enveloping Fuxi.

Within this dark veil, Fuxi felt his pain lessen significantly, though he still lacked the strength to stand.

A short distance away, Nuwa stood frozen, entirely motionless as if paralyzed by a spell.

All around them, even the wind seemed to have stopped.

The blades of grass on the ground remained bent to one side, unable to straighten up again.

“What is happening…” Fuxi stared blankly at his surroundings, completely bewildered.

A pitch-black figure slowly descended from the sky, landing squarely between Fuxi and Nuwa.

The figure spoke. “Fuxi, you are dying.”

Fuxi looked up, and standing imposingly before him was a stunningly cold and glamorous woman.

“Who are you?” Fuxi asked in confusion.

“I am You Si. Sensing that a figure of Legends is about to perish, I have come specifically to offer you a chance.”

“A chance?” Fuxi paused. “I do not need it. Getting out of my way would be the greatest help you could offer.”

“Is that so?” You Si cast a chilling gaze at Fuxi. “Are you implying that Nuwa can save you, but I cannot?”

“What nonsense are you spewing? Nuwa has the ‘Mind Thought Technique’. She can resurrect me. Can you keep me alive?”

“Ridiculous.” You Si stared at Fuxi, a terrifying smile creeping onto her face. “A wielder of the Mind Thought Technique can govern everything in this world, with the sole exception of ‘Time’. I, however, am the exact opposite.”

“Time…?” Fuxi was stunned. “You can control time?”

“Exactly. Fuxi, join me.” You Si slowly extended a hand toward him. “Join me, and you shall become eternal. You will possess supreme magical power, supreme destiny, and endless longevity.”

You Si seemed somewhat reluctant, but to her, none of that mattered anymore.

“R-really?”

Fuxi was tempted. The conditions You Si described moved him deeply.

Supreme magical power, supreme destiny, and endless longevity?

If that were true, he would no longer need to depend on Nuwa. He could roam the world freely on his own—would that not be wonderful?

“I would not deceive you.” Even as You Si spoke, a flash of disdain appeared in her eyes.

She had offered this to many figures of Legends across various dynasties, yet not a single one had ever accepted.

Seeing Fuxi so eagerly tempted now made him seem rather pathetic in her eyes.

“I accept!” Fuxi said with a tremble. “Quickly, save me! Make me the most supreme existence in this world.”

Right at that moment, another You Si suddenly appeared in the sky. Looking slightly puzzled, she drifted down to the ground.

Now, it was You Si standing face-to-face with You Si.

The two shared a tacit understanding and remained silent. After all, their goal was identical: as long as someone became “Time”, it did not matter who it was. And it was equally unimportant which of them completed the task.

Whether it was Xie Yujiao or You Si, as long as they accomplished this mission, they would earn eternal liberation.

“Sister, how far along are we?” the newly arrived You Si asked.

“He has already agreed,” the first You Si replied.

“Y-yes, I accepted!” Thrilled, Fuxi reached out and grabbed the You Si standing in front of him.

The You Si before him nodded, but the moment she clasped Fuxi’s hand, her expression changed drastically.

“This…”

“Sister, what is wrong?” the other You Si asked.

The first You Si looked at Fuxi with a gaze full of utter despair. “Fuxi, oh Fuxi, I truly misjudged you… You are neither a Great Pivot constitution nor have you trained diligently. How can your cultivation and state of mind be so abysmally low?”

You Si was thoroughly baffled. How could the Great Emperor Fuxi of worldly rumors turn out to be nothing more than an empty shell, fierce only in appearance?

“S-so what if my cultivation is low?” Fuxi asked in confusion. “I have Nuwa! Nuwa is so powerful, why would I need to cultivate on my own?”

You Si slowly shook her head. “What a pity. I thought you would be a fitting candidate. But looking at it now, your state of mind is completely incapable of becoming ‘Time’.”

This time, it was Fuxi’s turn to grow furious. “You are tricking me, are you not?! You just want me to die, do you not?!”

You Si coldly shook off Fuxi’s hand. “Do I even need to? If I simply leave you here, you will die anyway. I wanted to give you a chance, but you squandered it yourself.”

Fuxi’s eyes gradually filled with deep resentment. Gritting his teeth, he snarled, “If that is the case, get out of my way! I no longer expect anything from you. At least my younger sister can save me. Scram!”

Hearing this, the two You Si said nothing more. They exchanged a brief glance. “Let us go, sister.”

Retracting the pitch-black curtain, the two of them slowly floated back into the sky.

One You Si asked the other, “Sister, do you think he will survive?”

“Absolutely impossible.”

“Why?”

“Because I took a look at Nuwa. She is far smarter than we imagined.”

After speaking, the two You Si were about to part ways, but one suddenly stopped the other.

“I just remembered something… There should only be one of me in this space and time… Who are you?”
