The Song Dynasty was about to fall. No matter how hard Song Jue tried, it seemed he couldn't resist the inevitable collapse. But when he saw me, every day he wore a shallow smile and looked warm.
Until, when he wanted to hold my hand, that long hand passed through my body. The first time, I saw such vivid emotion on Song Jue's face. It was despair and fear. It was heaven collapsing.
My heart suddenly seized. This was something I anticipated long ago. But he was so sad that I swallowed the words at my mouth.
Song Jue pressed his lips, somewhat pleading. He said, "Sister, don't leave me, okay?"
He was actually afraid I would leave. But how could I bear?
His expression was pitiful, yet I was also timely clear-headed. I pretended indifference and casually raised my eyebrows. I said, "Of course. You're the only one who can see me. Only when you can't see me will I leave."
Song Jue's voice trembled. He said, "Am I only that to sister?"
I smiled, holding the bitterness, and didn't speak.
Song Jue looked at me and didn't ask again. The light in those eyes shattered into pieces, scattered in the dim candlelight.
When rebels burned the forbidden palace, I stood quietly not far from Song Yu. By now, more than a month had passed since he couldn't see me.
I still remember, when he returned to his palace that day and didn't see me, that deathly pale color, as if someone drained all vitality.
Song Jue quietly looked at my direction, smiling as gently as when we first met.
My heart was shocked. I thought he could see me. I looked carefully, yet I discovered those beautiful eyes were full of sorrow, empty and hopeless. He said, "Yi Ning, I truly hate you."
Knowing he couldn't see me, I still didn't dare turn around.
I stood with him in the fire, watching the faint flow of light of successful trial appearing on his body.
Song Yu ascended to Heaven, and I also entered the Heavenly Court.
Because of my skill in exorcising ghosts in the mortal realm, and some familiarity with the God of War Chang Ming Yan, I was appointed God of War.
