Chapter 699: "For...the sake of this flower."

"What's wrong?" She looked back.

"Don't drink the water!"

The little boy held his knees, panting, and took two seconds to say the complete words: "A new rule is born! The current preliminary judgment is: no drinking water!"

Shi Wuqing frowned and asked, "What happened?"

"Just now Wanjia's uncle... suddenly melted after drinking water." Bai Xiaolu sounded a little uneasy: "It happened suddenly and I couldn't determine more detailed rules. I was afraid that my sister would drink water, so I hurriedly came to find her."

"Thank you Xiaolu." Shi Wuqing rubbed the boy's head, "I understand, you can go back first."

"Sister..." Bai Xiaolu raised his head: "Are you going outside the clan realm?"

"Well, I have some things to do. It's a task assigned to me by the Saint. It won't be dangerous, so don't worry."

"...But sister, at this moment, if you abandon me and go out alone, aren't you afraid that I will be in danger?" Bai Xiaolu clenched the corners of his clothes and asked in a low voice, his voice choked with sobs.

Shigiri paused and said in a lower voice: "No, Xiaolu, I will always protect you."

"Liar..." The boy's eyes filled with tears: "My sister is leaving, how can you protect me?"

There was a moment of silence.

then……

"Those who are not of my race must have different minds." Shi Wuqing bent down and lightly drew a few strokes in the air with his fingers, and a sunflower appeared out of thin air.

——This almost shows her non-human status.

Faced with this sudden confession, Bai Xiaolu's pupils shrank.

Shiwuqing handed the sunflower that represented hope to the boy: "But if it is my sister, are Xiaolu willing to believe it for once?"

"You...what are you?"

Shi Wuqing brushed away the tears from the corners of the boy's eyes, "I will protect the path, and I am willing to protect all humans."

Bai Xiaolu was a little confused, but he still reached out and took the sunflower.

And the next second he took the sunflower, the girl in front of him disappeared.

Bai Xiaolu stood blankly for a while, his eyes moist, but the colors inside gradually became obscure.

My sister is not a human being. Should I kill her?

If you kill your sister, she will be by your side forever and not run away.

The sunflower had a bright smile, as bright as the sun. It was a flower Bai Xiaolu had never seen before since he was so old.

He lowered his head and fiddled with it for a while, then suddenly became discouraged:

Forget it... Even if my sister is not a human, she is still my sister.

Don't hurt her anymore.

Will protect her.

"For...the sake of this flower."

……

Shi Wuqing came to the "split" place thousands of miles away.

The so-called split is an extremely dangerous anomaly on the continent. Black holes appear irregularly in the air, on the ground, underground...anywhere, swallowing up everything around them. Soon after, "weird" and "strange" phenomena are likely to be born. "The Old Ones". 1

"Weird", as the name suggests, is a strange phenomenon that cannot be explained. If we want to describe it appropriately, it would be like a playground in an infinite world.

Every time "split" comes, there will be several more game fields in the world. Some are visible to the naked eye, and some are silent.

——For example, division brings about the "rules game". The rules are not known to anyone and can only be practiced with life.

It is now a well-known rule that you cannot look in the mirror at twelve o'clock at midnight. If one looks in a mirror, or happens to see one's own face on any reflective object, the person becomes a mirror.

What Bai Xiaolu just said "melts after drinking water" is obviously a new rule.

No reason, no solution. This is weird.

There are hundreds of scattered rules around the world, but they only target different species, and each species needs to pay attention to different things.

And these are just known rules. The rules that have not been touched do not mean that they do not exist. No one knows how many such rules there are.

——But rules are just a kind of "weird".

The changes in the world brought about by weirdness go far beyond that.

"Five..." Shi Wuqing was startled by the scene in front of him.

The last time I came here, there was only one "split" here. The scale of that "split" alone was amazing enough, but this time, there were four more black holes in the sky!

Five large-scale and growing "schisms"!

The nearby ground, air, and sky have all been swallowed up, turning into a vast nothingness.

"Is it multiplying...?"

When the fog cleared in the air, I could see more clearly.

The first split was actually expanding into the surrounding area, dispersing into new black holes!

According to this situation, it won't be long before the sixth "split" will appear!

No wonder... no wonder it was so serious that it alarmed Chi Jiu himself!

"Trouble." Shi Wuqing estimated his strength.

The first split is a hundred meters in diameter. With her power, she can crush it when the split matures to prevent the birth of the "Old Dominator" - the birth of the "weird" is silent and cannot be stopped. The latter can be prevented - but if it continues to multiply...

Shi Wuqing's heart was pounding. For gods, "weirdness" was ineffective. It could only harm human beings.

But...the "Old Dominators" are different. It is an existence beyond understanding, above the rules of the universe, and a terrifying thing that even the gods cannot deal with.

In order to prevent the Old Ones from appearing, the black hole must be destroyed as soon as possible.

However, "split" can only be crushed and eliminated when it matures.

And looking at the situation of this division, I am afraid that when it matures, it will multiply into at least hundreds of "divisions"!

The white dress was fluttering high in the wind, and the girl's expression was calm and serious. After a while, she lowered her eyes, and a relieved smile slowly appeared on her face that was so delicate and beautiful that it could make everything lose its color.

"That's all."

Even if she dies, she cannot let the Old Ones appear.

So... let's try to see if we can cooperate with Chi Jiu.
