Xue Dili didn’t understand why this would happen, but he still nodded.
"If you feel like doing it, just go ahead." He said.
Therefore, in the monts that followed, Xue Dili saw her seemingly leap into a bizarre dance, movents unlike any dance from Earth, yet so graceful that even soone like Xue Dili, who has no artistic talent, found it pleasing to the eye.
The Divine in her hand swayed gently, as if part of so strange ritual.
The tips of her feet wrapped in pure white stockings stepped across the viscous, filthy ground, her plain white sleeves swirling up in arcs like flowing clouds as she spun, the morning sun casting over her face, revealing a divine compassion within her devout dance.
This display left Xue Dili speechless, unsure whether this divine Witch before him was the real her, or the one who yesterday wanted to engage in breeding activities right here.
Moreover, she ntioned that there were four Evil Ghosts constantly watching them; aning she intended to abandon herself and engage in intimate discussions with him here, right under the nose of four Evil Ghosts.
Perhaps it was his smack that woke her up.
Xue Dili thought to himself.
Several minutes later, as the dance concluded, Xue Dili asked, "Is it done?"
"Yes, I’ve ferried them to the Pure Land," the Young Lady replied.
She seed quite exhausted at this ti, as that set of dance moves, filled with divinity, seed particularly physically and magically draining.
But just purifying four Evil Ghosts left her so fatigued; how many unseen Evil Ghosts are there in this city?
Thousands?
Tens of thousands?
How many more tis would she have to repeat this dance? Perhaps the dance wasn’t enough, and other thods might be needed.
"What is the Pure Land in your world like? Have you ever seen it?" Xue Dili turned the pages of , asking.
The Young Lady slightly rose, stepping on wooden clogs, once again with her toes walking on the ground devoid of any filth, seemingly possessing a miraculous real-ti refresh.
"Pure Land? Legend has it that Margaret, a giant walnut wood, bears it; Margaret’s trunk itself is the world of Pure Land, and its roots are the ultimate ho of Pure Land, while each leaf of Margaret represents a wrongly departed soul, which gradually absorbs the soul’s impurity, allowing it to return to the roots, which is the belonging of Pure Land." The Witch recited this world’s myth.
However, upon hearing terms like "giant wood," "tree root," Xue Dili was about to fall into PTSD.
He suspected whether that so-called Pure Land might be the Divine Tree?
Yet upon further understanding, Xue Dili guessed it might only be a coincidence, because the giant walnut wood supporting the Pure Land seed to have no interest in living people or corpses, only joyous towards the "Evil Spirit".
This is completely different from the Divine Tree’s habit, which is primarily interested in living people, then corpses, as for souls, they are rely side products, not really intriguing to it.
It might really be just a coincidence.
Xue Dili thought to himself, simultaneously asking, "Can you confirm those four Evil Spirits you ntioned earlier have been ferried to the giant walnut wood?"
"Yes..." she nodded, "This is how we deal with Evil Ghosts, by ferrying them to the giant walnut wood, which is the only way to handle Evil Ghosts."
"Evil Ghosts are immortal and indestructible, even with walnut wood, they can only be trapped temporarily, thus Pure Land is their final ho, serving as a large-scale seal."
Xue Dili listened to this mystical narrative from the Witch, feeling the world’s ecology to be quite peculiar.
Perhaps this so-called giant walnut wood is sothing the world manufactured specifically targeting Evil Ghosts, much like on Earth, there exists bacteriophages specifically counteracting the Divine Tree.
The world won’t allow unsolvable existences, hence there will always be one thing countering another.
Yet, why did it feel like this world suddenly collapsed half a year ago? Without resistance or any traces of large-scale war, just a world teeming with Evil Ghosts, and those attempting to flee by car.
Along the way, traces of car accidents were everywhere, thick liquid sared throughout cars, yet no corpses were visible.
"Then how long will it take you to fully ferry all the Evil Ghosts of the world? Just four alone seem to have exhausted you to the limit." Xue Dili looked at her, saying.
The Young Lady remained silent, but she seed to have made up her mind, perhaps it was her mission as the sole survivor to ferry all the world’s Evil Ghosts to the Pure Land, and beco the last Gravekeeper of the Pure Land.
"Maybe, I’ll spend the rest of my life doing this... After all, I don’t know what else I can do..." she said, those sapphire-like eyes seemingly losing their sparkle since yesterday.
"I thought your actions yesterday ant you wanted to revive your race, planning to have ten or eight children while you were still young, finally reviving your already extinct race." Xue Dili recalled her bold behavior from yesterday, expressionless.
"No, I was simply seeking to vent my desires with you." She countered, "I’ve ntioned, the Witch long lost the ability to reproduce, once we walk this path, we are no longer normal humans, destined to serve God in this life."
"So even if I want to have children, wish for the Candle Star People not to go extinct, it’s impossible; even regular people will perish upon prolonged contact with us," she remarked, her eyes again losing their luster completely.
