Chapter 119 Keisha's Last Will
Chapter 119 Keisha's Last Will
Tiancheng, the woodland behind the mountain.
After three hours of baking Angel Yan was over, He Xi finally calmed down and removed the solar flare furnace.
After enduring a long period of high-temperature tempering, Angel Yan was already extremely weak. Seeing the furnace disappear, her tense mind suddenly relaxed, her vision went black, and she staggered and was about to fall.
Upon seeing this, He Xi immediately stepped forward, supported her arm, and helped her up.
"Hey! Don't go to sleep yet!"
He Xi gently patted her face, her tone soft: "Hang in there, let's finish this business first before we go to sleep."
Angel Yan struggled to open her eyelids and said weakly, "Ah?"
"What? Quickly connect to the sacred treasure trove of knowledge. Keisha has left a great gift for you, her disciple and successor, and... her daughter-in-law."
He Xi helped her sit down on the chair next to her.
"Daughter-in-law?"
Angel Yan suddenly looked up, her eyes wide with confusion.
She understood the first two identities, but how did she even begin to explain the last one?
"You'll understand once you inherit Keisha's treasure trove of knowledge," He Xi said without further explanation.
Upon hearing this, Angel Yan had no choice but to suppress her doubts, immediately close her eyes, and sink her consciousness into the dark dimension.
[Connecting to the Holy Keisha Knowledge Repository... Awaiting permission verification...]
[Verification successful: Angel Yan]
The next second, a dazzling orange-red light suddenly burst forth from the previously pitch-black dark dimension.
Angel Yan looked up and saw a huge model of a cosmic tree appear in the dark dimension, which was the very essence of the sacred knowledge treasury.
At that moment, a tall and elegant golden projection appeared in front of the Cosmic Tree.
"Queen Keisha!"
Angel Yan shuddered, her eyes instantly reddening.
Keisha's projection turned around, a gentle smile on her face. Her gaze swept over her, and her voice traveled through the dark dimension to the ears of every angel in the known universe.
At the same time, this scene was also seen by all the angels.
"Angel warriors from all directions, and all civilizations under the rule of justice and order."
In the plaza of the Heavenly Palace, Angel Chase, Moi, and the others suddenly looked up at the sky and saw this scene.
On the floating island of Blue Star, more than twenty angels, including Li Yao, Zhi Xin, Angel Leng, and Ling Xi, also witnessed this scene.
All the angel warriors, no matter where they were in the universe, stopped what they were doing, looked up at the sky, and listened to this last will and testament.
"I am the Holy Keisha."
"My era is over."
"When you hear this message, I will have already transformed into sacred atoms, scattered among the stars of the universe."
"Today, I hereby announce that Li Yao will succeed as the Holy Angel King and protect our world in my stead."
Keisha's image was clearly reflected in the eyes of every angel.
She turned to look at the projection of He Xi that had appeared beside her, and said solemnly:
"He Xi, I entrust the future of the Angel Civilization to him, and to you as well. Please complete his final test for me. Do you agree?"
He Xi placed his hand on his chest and bowed, his voice steady: "I agree."
Keisha couldn't help but laugh: "Hehe, don't be unconvinced. One day, he will surpass him."
"Screw you, you tomboy." He Xi rolled her eyes, but a slight smile played on her lips. "He'll be better than you too."
At this moment, all the angels were immersed in remembering Keisha, and no one noticed that Keisha's expression suddenly softened.
"At the same time, Angel Yan was appointed as Angel Queen, with the title of Heavenly Blade Queen, whose position is second only to the King of Angels."
"This edict is proclaimed to all the gods of the universe and to all righteous civilizations."
Just when everyone thought the will was about to end, Keisha's voice rang out again. This time, her voice carried a hint of apology and a hint of relief.
"Finally, there's one more thing I've kept hidden from the entire universe for a hundred years."
Keisha's gaze was fixed on a distant point, her voice soft yet carrying a barely perceptible tremor.
"Li Yao, he is my biological son."
"I'm sorry, child."
"For the sake of justice and order, and to protect you as you grow up safely, I have to conceal your true identity and let you grow up as an ordinary angel."
"Only today, until you are capable of shouldering the burden of the entire angel civilization, can I tell you this truth."
As she spoke, her eyes reddened slightly, but she did not let the tears fall.
"Forgive me, my child."
As she finished speaking, Keisha's projection gradually became transparent.
She glanced at Angel Yan one last time, nodded to her, and then transformed into specks of golden light, dissipating into the dark dimension.
After a while, Angel Yan, who had been upgraded to a divine body, withdrew from the dark dimension. She opened her eyes, sat in a chair, and looked at him with a mixture of grief and shock.
At this moment, He Xi, who was standing to the side, chuckled and said, "How about it? Do you understand now?"
Angel Yan nodded slightly upon hearing this. At this moment, she had already resolved many of the doubts buried in her heart, but soon a new question arose.
She looked up at He Xi and asked, "Then how exactly was Li Yao born?"
……
Blue Star Floating Island, in the laboratory.
The bag of potato chips in Angel's cold hand fell to the ground with a "clatter," scattering the chips all over the floor.
She stared blankly at Li Yao, her mouth agape in an "O" shape, unable to close it for a long time before finally managing to squeeze out, "I... I didn't hear wrong, did I? You're Queen Keisha's biological son?"
Zhi Xin also looked at Li Yao with an incredulous expression.
Li Yao stood there, staring blankly at the sky outside the window.
Fragments of the past flashed rapidly through my mind.
Clips of his interactions with Keisha from childhood to adulthood, as well as footage of his time alone with Keisha at the temporary camp, etc.
All the doubts were now answered.
A complex mix of emotions welled up inside him—shock, confusion, and warmth.
But soon, Li Yao let out a soft breath, suppressing these emotions.
Upon closer reflection, there was never any of the melodramatic plot twists between him and Keisha, such as abandoning a child to find relatives, estrangement between mother and son, or separation by death.
From childhood to adulthood, Keisha was always present during his growth.
She simply couldn't hold him and call his name like an ordinary mother; she could only stand at the highest point as a queen and watch him grow up step by step.
He has never lacked love, but this love is hidden deeper and heavier than anyone else's.
Seeing him standing there in a daze, the angel couldn't help but feel a little worried. After all, anyone who encountered such a thing would be overwhelmed with emotions and find it difficult to calm down.
Moreover, Queen Keisha has now fallen.
But she never said anything gentle or comforting, and she was never one to be sentimental.
Angel hesitated for a long time before tiptoeing forward, stretching out her arms, and gently wrapping her arms around Li Yao's waist from behind. Her arms were loose, not daring to exert any force, and her chin rested gently on his shoulder, her warm breath washing over his neck.
After a long silence, she finally spoke in a muffled voice, her tone tinged with her own unique awkwardness: "Yao, don't be sad, you still have us."
As she spoke, she gestured towards Zhixin.
Zhi Xin finally snapped out of her shock and quickly stepped forward to gently hug Li Yao from the front. Her eyes were red, and her voice was soft: "Yes, junior brother, you still have us. We will always be with you from now on."
Li Yao's body stiffened slightly, then he relaxed.
He raised his hand, gently patted the back of Angel Leng's hand behind him with one hand, and ruffled Zhi Xin's hair with the other, and smiled, "I'm fine."
The three of them lingered quietly for a moment.
After they parted, Li Yao's smile faded, and he said to the two of them:
"Notify all angel warriors on the floating island."
"Tomorrow, we will prepare to return to Tiancheng."
