Chapter 218.2: Meeting No-Food Goddess Again
Above the Heavenly Pillar, a cold and aloof woman stood, dressed in red. The breeze brushed past her hair, making her appear especially forlorn, yet her aura was unmistakably that of a Mythic.At that moment, Lingzhong appeared, saying helplessly, "No-Food, leave the Heavenly Pillar. It's bound to collapse. There's nothing more we can do. Why must you stubbornly hold on? What you're consuming is your Divine Domain!"
He was missing a head, looking particularly horrifying.
No-Food Goddess gazed at the pillar, a trace of youthful innocence lingering in her eyes. "I promised him that I would guard the Heavenly Pillar. The day it breaks will be the day I fall.”
Lingzhong looked at her stubborn expression and sighed softly. "Why must you fuse yourself with the Heavenly Pillar, binding your life and death to it? You are beloved by the world. One day, you might even step beyond the True God realm."
No-Food Goddess smiled sadly. "There's no chance."
"Why be so obstinate?" Lingzhong lamented. "The Heavenly Pillar is on the verge of collapse. It may not hold out for long."
No-Food Goddess calmly stared at him, her voice firm. "You should go. It's useless to persuade me."
Lingzhong persisted. "You... Why must you do this? Why cling to guarding the Heavenly Pillar for someone who doesn't exist? Someone who's just a figment of your imagination? You are the world's favored child. The disasters of your youth were merely trials imposed by the world. You had no one’s help but your own and the world’s. I went to Elder Fanxin. He said the one you've been looking for doesn't exist! That was merely a fantasy of your youth!"
"No!" Her gaze grew deep, and her voice sharpened. "I will fulfill the promise I made!"
