"You're really going to get involved personally in the conflict of the human world." In the night sky, Jiuyou asked the Blind One with a playful smile, "Isn't there something wrong here?"
The Blind One replied indifferently, "Better to ask why you have that playful smile all day long. Is there something wrong with that?"
Jiuyou laughed even more, "Because my audience is you."
"Cui Yuanyang isn't me, and earlier, Zhao Changhe wasn't me either. You laughed more joyously than anyone else, like Xiao Taohong in the Red Pavilion."
Jiuyou was momentarily stunned by these words, as if finding the Blind One's comment unbelievable, then she laughed again, "Since you can say such things, why can't I laugh?"
"But your laugh is a pretended laugh, not genuine, or let's say it's a seductive smile like in the Red Pavilion, looking both fake and foolish." The Blind One said seriously, "There's nothing else to it, you like to laugh or not, but it makes me feel very embarrassed because, after all, you're my sister."
Jiuyou was truly rendered unable to laugh, her expression blank.
The moment her smile faded, a sense of barren desolation quickly took over. No wonder the Blind One said it was a pretended laugh. From the beginning to the end, from their meeting in Chang'an, no matter how much she smiled, her eyes showed indifference. This kind of smile seemed fake and didn't suit her at all. On the contrary, the more plain her expression was, the more fitting it seemed, giving anyone the feeling of "She should be like this."
And the more plain it was, the more alike these two appeared.
One of them was as tranquil and bland as the night, and the other was as desolate and barren as the dusky abyss. This kind of temperament was hard to distinguish with the naked eye. In Zhao Changhe's eyes, they were described with the same words: a grand Star River.
The Blind One said indifferently, "Could it be you're forcing yourself to laugh foolishly to distinguish yourself from me?"
"Not really." Jiuyou suddenly smiled again, "My sister, perhaps you've forgotten... I often represent your negative side, and this negativity isn't just chaos and order, life and death... Haven't you thought about it, your usual straightforwardness means I can actually be quite wanton."
The Blind One: "?"
"Of course, previously our minds hadn't thought along these lines, everyone couldn't show it... After all, this aspect was secondary to us, almost never considered, even thought nonexistent." Jiuyou said sweetly, "But you actually found a man before me, which is surprising, seems like you're even more wanton than me."
The Blind One folded her arms, "That was his desire, not mine. What do you mean I found a man? On the contrary, didn't you openly express wanting to disrupt others' backyards... I was wondering why you would say this face-to-face, turns out it was due to wantonness, were you gushing while saying it?"
"Tsk..." Jiuyou said, "Didn't expect this to be our topic."
She tilted her head slightly, amusedly said, "If people knew we were arguing about this back then, what do you think their reaction would be?"
The Blind One sneered, "You can let them know now too, I'd love to see how wanton you can be, to say this to others."
Jiuyou said, "Then why are you willing to say it to me?"
The Blind One didn't answer.
Jiuyou sighed, "You said it wasn't that you found a man, then why would you participate in the human world conflict? Don't think you can shift the topic to avoid addressing this."
The Blind One said, "Since you've made a move, it's Silent Annihilation across a thousand miles, of course I must stop you, what's so strange?"
"But I'm only capturing Cui Yuanyang." Jiuyou blinked mischievously, "As for the so-called war, I'm not responsible for making a move, but you? Why are you protecting Cui Yuanyang? Is it to save an important battle force to help your man win this war? Or... do you fear her awakening?"
The Blind One evaded the topic, "You have no rules in your heart, who can believe you won't make a move in war? If I'm not mistaken, you have another incarnation at the Northern Border, if not causing trouble in war, then are you there to offer yourself as a bed companion?"
Jiuyou equally avoided her topic, continuing with her own, "My sister, aren't you the one who most wants to eliminate Cui Yuanyang? Watching her lively growth over the years, how do you feel? Is it because you didn't realize she is Piaomiao? True, she didn't particularly resemble, inheriting a lot from her parents. But now you must have realized, why don't you act?"
The Blind One said indifferently, "Piaomiao is immortal, same as you and me, killing or not is meaningless. In fact, she has reincarnated many times, all four sword families she's been through, yet none have triggered awakening. This cycle won't be too different... A little Spiritual Light from past lives is normal, to fully restore the memories requires a major catalyst, relying solely on Cui Yuanyang is impossible..."
"So you stop me? Afraid I might awaken her."
"Pardon my bluntness." The Blind One's lips curled in a sneer, "You're not on this path, you can't do it at all, I could do it better."
Jiuyou also sneered, "So are you willing to do it?"
The Blind One didn't answer, instead said, "You claim not to participate in war, so are you planning to chat with me until the end of time?"
To the Blind One, merely blocking Jiuyou was enough, other matters were Zhao Changhe's concern.
However, for Jiuyou, since Guanglong's army was halted outside Hangu Pass, there was nothing else to do, she was here to help the army break through this barrier. The Blind One's understanding of her was the truth, a Demon God based on chaos, declaring non-participation in the human world war? Only fools would be deceived.
Yet both were unwilling to make a move, their conflict would lead to unpredictable consequences.
