Fantasy: The Second Miss Said She Was Ordinary

Is Chapter 572 a coincidence?

Under everyone's gaze, Ying Linlin remained calm and composed, her voice clear and resonant.

"The universe is like an egg, within which creation is conceived. When the giant egg bursts open, the remaining matter turns into slime and broken shells."

“The broken shells give rise to all the heavens and myriad worlds; the viscous fluids, in turn, separate into clear and turbid, sinking and rising.”

"The Creator manipulates the pure energy, giving rise to all things; the universe is bright and clear, and all things grow."

Qin Youyou whispered, "These, these seem to be depicted in the murals, but I didn't quite understand them at first."

The grandparents chimed in, "It's normal that you didn't understand it; we didn't understand it either."

Ying Linlin continued: "As time flows by, turbidity secretly spreads deep within the universe, and from its filthy core, evil is born."

"This turbid air is actually a soul-corroding gray mist. As the gray mist spreads, wherever it passes, demons devour souls and erode spirits, eventually turning living beings into walking corpses."

Qin Youyou: "What?! Are monsters really that awful?!"

Grandparents: "Yes, Linlin's deduction should be correct. Those monsters in the gray fog are the demons Linlin mentioned, which were fortunately destroyed by the gods."

Ying Linlin: "The Creator then sent the high-ranking God of Food to swallow the fog and destroy evil; and commanded the God of Life to revive the defiled people."

"However, the turbid and unpredictable energy has quietly seeped into the pure and spiritual energy, merging into the hearts and minds of inherently good beings, and fostering selfish desires and delusions."

"Evil thoughts take root in the mind, inhabit the body, and gradually give rise to evil spirits, vengeful ghosts, and evil gods."

Qin Youyou exclaimed, "What? That means the operation to clear the gray fog has failed? What should we do next?"

Ying Linlin's lips twitched. No, Fei Gun, He, Creator God, don't you really know what you did?

His voice rose: "At the beginning of creation, He foresaw this calamity. In the clear mist, He cut out the shape of Qiongqi from divine paper. He commanded it to devour demons and monsters, gather blood and solidify its body, and finally become a real entity."

"That's amazing?" Qin Youyou was stunned. When she sent Qiongqi flying, her idea was actually very simple: paper tigers devour souls, and this gray mist monster also devours souls. She wanted to see who was stronger when they bit each other.

Ying Linlin's eyebrows twitched violently. He could no longer bear it and turned his head: "Student Mu, please stop interrupting."

Continuing: "People all say that Qiongqi is a ferocious beast that devours souls and gods. Little do they know that beneath the bodies it devours, the light of humanity has long been tainted by filth, leaving only selfish thoughts."

"This is the beginning of Qiongqi."

As Ying Linlin finished speaking, her voice trembled with increasing excitement.

He didn't tell Qin Youyou that during the time they were looking at the murals in the corridor, the dragon bloodline hidden within him was slowly awakening.

Some unique memories inherited by the dragon race were unveiled and clearly presented in his mixed-race mind.

Through the eyes of his ancestor, he saw the birth of the Qiongqi.

A girl with a red mole between her eyebrows bestowed precious life upon the paper Qiongqi that devoured all monsters as the gray mist dissipated.

She said, "Little Qiongqi, I bestow upon you the power to devour souls. After my death, may you establish a life for the people and devour all evil souls, demons, and gods in the world."

Ying Linlin didn't say this scene aloud, but the girl's appearance was so clearly imprinted on his heart.

In this life, she saved Ying Linlin's life.

He was willing to go through fire and water for her, even unto death.

The resounding voice fell silent, plunging the entire hall into stillness.

Everyone was deeply immersed in the narrative, as if they were watching a magnificent epic, their emotions stirred and their breathing rapid.

until……

"Ying Linlin's group answered correctly and received 100 rubies!"

The mechanical voice rang out calmly, abruptly pulling everyone back from their daze.

Suctions of air rose from all directions.

"Ying Linlin got it right..."

"It's not surprising. When he said those words, everyone already knew in their hearts that he was right."

"Everything is explained now. So this is how Qiongqi was born..."

Qin Youyou was completely dumbfounded.

So, everything she and her parents did in the gray fog was a replay of the choice she made millions of years ago?

How come there wasn't a single mistake at every step?

What a coincidence!

She looked down into her sleeve, where the paper tiger had vanished.

She looked around, and then turned to the side, where she saw a tiny, lively white kitten nestled at her feet. It had wings on its back, round eyes, and looked at her obediently, rubbing its head against her trouser leg.

"Meow." A sweet, coquettish sound.

Qin Youyou was dumbfounded.

After devouring the monsters in the gray mist, the paper tiger actually transformed into a flesh and blood body!

She quickly added the little Qiongqi to her QQ Farm account.

Fortunately, the reaction was quick enough that no one saw it.

One hundred rubies flew to Ying Linlin's side. He smiled, took out his mustard seed bag, and put them all away.

Everyone's eyes were practically spitting fire with jealousy.

"One hundred rubies! That's way ahead of the competition. I wonder how much those rubies would fetch if sold elsewhere."

"Hehe, the price is secondary. Who knows, this gem might play a big role in the later explorations."

Qin Jiyu and Xiao Feiyun, who were hiding in the archaeology team, were delighted to see Qin Youyou's group win a hundred rubies, but they didn't say anything.

Everything is proceeding in an orderly manner, and if things don't go off track, they don't need to make too many changes.

but……

"Ten thousand years ago, Youyou actually did so many things... and there were two other gods, judging from their backs, they looked like Father and Mother..." Qin Jiyu smiled.

Father has returned. He has been organizing historical facts at Dragon Spine Academy and has not had a chance to reunite with him.

Xiao Feiyun kept thinking to herself, "Teacher is so amazing! I didn't know that teacher was such an amazing person. I must work hard so as not to bring shame to teacher."

Hua Xiange's face was somber.

Unexpectedly, this handsome brat actually has some skills. He managed to uncover the whole truth using only the phantom images of three gods. I really underestimated him before.

No wonder his sister couldn't compete with him. With such a smart and handsome guy, it seems reasonable that Mu Feigun was bent by him.

“Brother…” Hua Yan’er’s voice rang out from behind.

Hua Xiange: "Sister, give up. You are no match for him."

Hua Yan'er's face turned pale; she had only wanted to comfort her brother.

She lowered her head and gave a soft "hmm".

"I've figured it out. Fei Gun and Lin Lin, standing there, are truly a perfect couple. There's no room for a third person between them."

Hua Xiange nodded: "It's good that you've figured it out. Don't worry, I'll still avenge you. As long as I can do it, I won't let them get away with it."

He looked up at the boy who was clinging to Ying Linlin's mustard seed bag, his eyes almost popping out of his sockets.

Qin Youyou suddenly felt someone's gaze on her. She turned her head and saw that it was Hua Xiange. She scratched her head and smiled embarrassedly.

"A close win, a close win, keep it up!"

The sound wasn't loud, but a cultivator with sharp hearing and eyesight could still make out the gist of it if they concentrated.

Hua Xiange suddenly froze.

"Damn it, she's radiating charm again!"

That guy is so innocent, warm-hearted, and guileless—it's really impossible not to like him...

But for his sister's sake, even if he didn't hate that guy, he could never be friends with him.

This is his bottom line!
