The sun and moon are both wrong: Starting with marrying Gongsun Ling

Chapter 51: Brothers and Friends

Is there anyone in the world who understands Gongsun Ling and the Three True Ones better than Lü Buyi?

There shouldn't be any.

So if even Baili Yuan could think of this, how could he not know it himself?

Of course not, no one understands the persistence of the successors of the [Three Truths in the Same Month] better than her.

and so……

"just in case?"

In response to Baili Yuan's question, Lü Buyi chuckled, raised his wine cup and gently rubbed it, then calmly said:

"You're using too polite language, Baili Yuan—"

"There's no 'what if' about it. That's definitely what she's planning. She wants to use me to pave the way for her return on the final day."

"So you know that?" Baili Yuan sat down again, chuckling as he crossed his legs.

"Of course I know; no one understands her thoughts better than I do."

Lü Buyi stared at the wine cup, seemingly lost in thought.

"If that's the case, why did you go to such great lengths to preserve her body?"

Baili Yuan chuckled: "Is it to annoy Wanye, or is he just blinded by love?"

Lü Buyi shook his head: "Do you think that after three thousand years, I still haven't let go of those memories from just one hundred years ago?"

"I have serious doubts." Baili Yuan spread his hands. "But if it's really not because of those two, then what is it for?"

Lü Buyi drank the wine in his cup in one gulp.

"Huang once told me that he hoped that on the final day all things would be fatally threatened, and he longed for a grand finale and funeral."

"I cannot guarantee whether the Three Truths Dharma Gate can pose a fatal threat to all industries; I can only guarantee the grandeur and magnificence of that war."

"All the pinnacle and pinnacle of the supernatural world have gathered together for a life-or-death struggle—"

Do you think this deserves the title "Shanda"?

Baili Yuan didn't refute him; he simply asked, "Are you sure you can bring yourself to do it?"

"He killed his own wife again..."

"Lu Buyi, can you do it?"

Lü Buyi answered without the slightest hesitation: "What's there to doubt?"

"Since we didn't hold back the first time, it's even less likely we'll do it a second time."

Baili Yuan stopped asking questions, because continuing to question Lü Buyi's determination was utterly ridiculous.

"I see... then I won't say any more."

"It's getting late, I should head back now—"

"Faced with Gao Haoguang's backup plan, plus the presence of one of the top figures in Penglai's history, I need to make some more preparations."

Lü Buyi countered, "Aren't you going to say goodbye to your young mother?"

Upon hearing the title "young mother," Baili Yuan helplessly covered his head.

"I would rather die than hear that word again. Only Zhuo Zhao would call a girl 'mother'."

But then, Baili Yuan changed the subject.

"But you're right, we should say goodbye. Otherwise, if we don't see her again, my little Shizi might think I sold her to you."

Baili Yuan stood up again, and Lü Buyi followed him.

But when Baili Yuan returned to the place where he had initially told Shi Guagua not to move around and that he was going to buy her some oranges.

But the silly girl was nowhere to be seen.

Then, looking up, who else could that little black dot in the center of the Wanye Changsheng Great Material be but Shi Guagua?

"I knew she was the kind of person who couldn't stay still..."

Baili Yuan looked at Lü Buyi beside him: "Don't mind her, she's probably just curious—"

Lu Buyi gazed calmly at the faint sky-blue figure emerging from the very top of the Myriad Lives Longevity Material.

"It's nothing to worry about, she can't get up there anyway."

Although they look alike, Gongsun Ling and Shi Guagua have completely different personalities.

Gongsun Ling was naturally lazy, while Shi Guagua was naturally full of energy.

So in the end, it's simply that they look alike.

However, if they had had a child back then, things might really have turned out like...

"How did I even think of that?"

Lu Buyi frowned, clearing his mind of the jumbled thoughts.

Sure enough, he still dislikes children and is even less suited to taking care of them.

So, let's send Shi Guagua to her to take care of her. Anyway, she's good at taking care of children and children like her a lot.

At least……

This was the case before they killed their entire family.

Baili Yuan kept his eyes on Shi Guagua and didn't notice the change in Lü Buyi's expression.

He saw Shi Guagua quickly hit the invisible wall, and then he laughed heartily at his young mother's incompetent rage.

"Having a child like you is truly her blessing." This was Lü Buyi's assessment.

"Who says otherwise? After all, how many people are as polite and filial as me these days?" Baili Yuan said, completely oblivious to his own shortcomings.

But then, the place Shi Guagua headed towards changed his expression.

Baili Yuan glanced at Lü Buyi beside him, and seeing that he didn't seem to mind, he asked in return:

"Aren't you going to stop it?"

"Whether it's the contingency plan you left at the beginning of the Common Era for the final day, or the historical artifacts you collected that represent the key moments in technological development, they're all there."

"Most importantly, those two things that represent the very origins of humanity, your most relied-upon backup plan—"

Before Baili Yuan could finish speaking, Lü Buyi interrupted him:

"Let the child see it if she wants to. It's meant to be left for future generations anyway, so why can't she see it?"

"It won't break anyway."

"Moreover, as the last possessor of the power of causality destined to be before the final day, it is not a bad thing for her to experience the aggregate of all human causes and effects in advance."

"You're really generous," Baili Yuan murmured.

"However, as fellow users of the power of causality, didn't the Erlai people also want to see this place and experience the profound causality after you prematurely reborn them?"

Why didn't you agree?

Baili Yuan burst into laughter again at this point: "Looking like her really does have its privileges..."

"The Ellen would be heartbroken if he knew, after all, he admired you so much—"

Lü Buyi ignored him and simply stepped away, arriving not far behind Shi Guagua.

Baili Yuan followed closely behind.

Shi Guagua was unaware of them, and couldn't even hear their animated conversation, but they didn't seem to intend to disturb her directly.

Shi Guagua recognized very few of the things here, but Baili Yuan knew the owners of these things very well.

"King Zhou, King Wu, Duke of Zhou, Li Dan, Confucius, Yang Zhu, Ying Zheng, Xiang Yu, Liu Bang..."

"Thales, Pythagoras, Heraclitus, Parmenides, Socrates, Plato, Aristotle..."

"You really have relics from all over the world, from ancient times to the present."

"Even today, any one of these things, if taken out at random, carries such powerful karma that it would be enough to shock even ordinary people with great supernatural abilities."

"It's wonderful to have a set of future memories that aren't governed by causality. Knowing the course of history, yet experiencing a 'history' that isn't witnessed by causality itself."

"Cheating."

Baili Yuan offered his thoughts on the matter, while Lü Buyi simply responded softly:

"You flatter me."

At this moment, Shi Guagua had already stood before the crown of thorns and the stack of manuscripts—

These are relics of Jesus and Newton.

It was also the last gift that Lü Buyi's "brothers" and "friends" gave him, though it's unclear what their intentions were.

Therefore, even if Lü Buyi didn't say anything, he could tell from Shi Guagua's outstretched hand toward the crown of thorns that he was looking at it.

Baili Yuan still spoke up to stop him.

"Don't touch that pebble, you'll break it, and I, your boss, can't afford to pay for it..."
