Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 1995  The World Consciousness

"Ops." Long Ai Ning put her hands in front of her mouth. She nodded apologetically to Leader Kui and then ran to the other side of the group. The others only shook their heads in amusement. Even though Long Ai Ning was a bit silly at times, but at the very least, she was not a bad girl at heart. They knew this and this was one of the few reasons why they only felt her actions were amusing.

Besides, neither Long Qian Xing nor Nan Hua ever punished her.

At most, it was Long Xu who punished Long Ai Ning. "Let's just wait here for now."

"Yes."

No matter how curious they were, they would follow the order of Long Qian Xing or Nan Hua strictly. So at this time, they all stayed here and waited comfortably. …

<Long Qian Xing and Nan Hua's side>

Inside the temple, Long Qian Xing and Nan Hua walked into the main hall. After that they continued to walk towards the backyard where there was another large hall and also a strange table that looked like box there.

From the shape alone, it looked like a large box and a person was able to lie down there. There were various writings and shapes around the hall, which made it look rather mysterious and beautiful.

The atmosphere was a bit solemn and the two of them could hear faint whistling of the wind from somewhere within the temple. It looked rather strange and mysterious at the same time. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The two of them stopped before that large box.

The door behind them closed but neither paid attention to that. Because they could feel that whatever was calling them came from this place.

The calling was straight from the soul, making it hard for them to reject.

And they also seemed to understand that this was their chance to have many of their questions they have in their mind answered.

Swish~

<A strange ball appeared in front of them, showing faint light. The shape looked like a big pearl but there was glittering light all around the ball.>

"<Welcome, Long Qian Xing, Nan Hua, I am the world consciousness of this world," the world consciousness in the shape of the ball made its introduction.>

<World consciousness?>

Both Nan Hua and Long Qian Xing looked at the so called <World consciousness> in front of them. "You know we'll come here?" Long Qian Xing asked.

"Of course," the <World consciousness> replied.

"Did you bring us here?"

"<Yes, I bring you to this world from your previous world.>" The <World consciousness> had no intention to hide this matter because it was indeed the truth. Besides, when the <World consciousness> called them here, it already had the intention to answer their questions. "Why?" Nan Hua asked.

"<You will find the answer to this question by yourself, my child.>" the <World consciousness> answered calmly. Long Qian Xing's lips twitched slightly when he heard the way the <World consciousness> called them. While they were indeed still young, but he didn't feel very comfortable to be looked as a child by the <World consciousness>. "<What question do you have, my child?>" the <World consciousness> asked again. "I want to know one thing…" Long Qian Xing glanced at Nan Hua. To be honest, his first question was to ask whether <people from this world would also be in his previous world because he wanted to find Nan Hua. But since she had told him that she came from his world, then there was no need for him to ask this question again.>

Long Qian Xing then turned to look at the <World consciousness>. "<Will we truly return to our world and we can't remember anything from this world? Why?>"

The <World consciousness> was silent for a while before answering, "<Because I borrowed your soul to this world for temporary balance. Because I didn't bring your entire soul, the memory of this world will eventually be sealed back when you return. However, whatever abilities you have will slowly return to yourself in your world in the method of accelerated learning within the time span of 10 years.>

<And you can only return to your world after your death because you're all born in this world and the seal to your memory weakened after some time, which allowed you to remember your previous world. But what I did was still something that violated the law and the world could not allow you to remember the things in this world in your original timeline.>

<You can treat it as a blessing or a curse as you wish, but it's the rule that I would not break. Allowing you to retain your abilities through this method is already the biggest gift that I could give. And yes, as Gu Xia Mo said, you can treat this life as your second life.>"

The <World consciousness had been watching them for some time, so it naturally knew their conversation with Gu Xia Mo some time ago. Even if it was not showing itself, but it still knew these things. This temple could be said to be the medium used by the world consciousness to communicate with them directly.>

But the <World consciousness> would not explain it so clearly to them. There was no need for the <World consciousness> to do that and the two of them should be able to have some guesses on their own.

<As for why this place…. The world consciousness has its own reason.>

And the so called gift that the <world consciousness> mentioned, it was more like a compensation given to them for <bringing them into this world without their consent>. Though, this gift would be equivalent to give them <more talents when they're back in their previous world.>

As for whether it was useful or not, that was another question altogether. Nan Hua and Long Qian Xing listened to the <World consciousness>'s words. It felt rather inexplicable for them to be brought here for the so called <balance> as they didn't even understand what they were supposed to do.
