Chapter 585: The Twins Who Carry Their Destiny!

Dusk.

The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the streets ...

The streets were decorated with lanterns and streamers as if they were celebrating a grand festival.

But there was no one.

Liu Ping stood in the middle of the empty road and felt a little surprised.

According to the instructions of the "sermon", he entered this hidden world.

But he did not find the so-called "survivor".

Melodious music came from afar.

Liu Ping listened and whispered, "Piano music ... There’s an indescribable sadness and silence ..."

He followed the direction of the music and walked slowly along the street.

Snowflakes fell from the sky.

If one looked up carefully, they would find a huge shadow in the sky.

It looked like a humanoid existence overlooking the whole world.

Liu Ping did not pay attention to the shadow.

In the countless worlds and space-time, there were too many monsters.

Now he desperately wanted to find the "survivor".

After passing through the empty streets, he finally found the place where the music was playing.

It was a building similar to a temple.

Near it, other buildings surrounded it as if it was the center of this place.

When Liu Ping arrived here, the sound of the piano became louder.

It was as if it was welcoming him.

Liu Ping found the main door of the temple and pushed it in.

There was still no one.

A piano was placed at the end of a row of empty benches. On the side of the main altar, it was making tinkling sounds.

No one was playing, it was playing by itself.

Liu Ping looked around and saw a shadow standing on the altar.

It was a black-haired woman.

She was about thirty years old and had a solemn and serene aura. She was wearing an old-fashioned black short robe and loose bloomers. She had a cigarette in her mouth and was sitting on the edge of the altar.

She looked a little lonely.

"Finally, someone is here."

The woman blew out a smoke ring and said.

Liu Ping cupped his hands and said, "Your Excellency, I’m Liu Ping. How should I address you?"

"I’m the Grim Reaper of this world. If you don’t mind, you can call me Aunt Meng. Everyone used to call me that." The old woman said.

"Why Aunt Meng¹?" Liu Ping asked.

"Life is like a dream." The woman said.

She opened a pack of cigarettes and asked, "Do you smoke?"

"Thank you, Aunt Meng. I rarely touch these things." Liu Ping said.

"That’s true. It will lead you to me."

The woman lit another cigarette and took a deep puff. Her gaze fell on the piano that was playing automatically.

"Kid, you have a complicated human nature in you, and a lot of rare divinity. Can you tell me why you came here?" she asked.

"I ... Actually, I came here to avoid the enemy. I also came here to recuperate and learn some things to prepare for future battles," Liu Ping said.

"Who did you fight against?" the Female Death God asked.

"Lord of Nightmares," Liu Ping said.

"I don’t believe it. I can sense it. You have the Sequence of the Lord of Nightmares," the Goddess of Death said.

"That’s a little hard to explain. How should I put it? I just bluffed my way through. Let me think of something that can prove this," Liu Ping said.

Suddenly.

A little girl wearing a long red dress appeared out of thin air and gently landed next to him.

’Andrea!

The Grim Reaper stared at Andrea in astonishment, her eyes filled with disbelief.

"Sacred Spirit!"

"That’s right. I did come from the Sacred World. Hello," Andrea bowed and said.

The Grim Reaper looked at her, then looked at Liu Ping and said, "You ... need my help?"

Andrea smiled and asked, "I can sense that this world still has a last trace of life. Do you need my help?"

Liu Ping thought for a while and equipped the Saint title "Saint of the Tides".

Immediately, the Goddess of Death sensed the change in his body and said in surprise, "You are a saint among all living beings. You have a Sacred Spirit by your side, and you are also a saint yourself. Now I believe it. If you betray all living beings, this title will disappear."

The Grim Reaper was silent for a moment. She gently jumped down from the altar.

Step by step, she walked in front of Liu Ping and said, "Back then ... we couldn’t stop the invasion of nightmares. All the Gods were completely destroyed."

"Only I"

"Because this world will become a complete dead zone, and I control death. Therefore, there is still a chance."

"Over the long years, I have been relying on the increasing number of deaths in this world to barely hold on until now."

At this point, she quietly sized up Liu Ping.

"We are a natural alliance." Liu Ping said.

The Goddess of Death’s gaze fell onto his fingertips, and she softly said, "I see it ... the divine power of the earth that has long since declined is lingering around your hand, and there is also an omnipotent god who has fallen into a state of death, hiding behind you."

"We escaped here. You know, it is not easy to make a living." Liu Ping shrugged.

The Grim Reaper laughed out loud.

Without waiting for Liu Ping to react, she suddenly took out a black ring and grabbed one of Liu Ping’s hands.

"To be honest, we are indeed on the same side. Helping me is helping you. However, this is not easy. It is a dangerous situation that you have never seen before. Are you willing to try?"

"How difficult is it?" Liu Ping asked.

"On the Twilight of the Gods, it was almost complete despair. Even I found it difficult and didn’t dare to find someone to try it. However, you are a Saint."

"Then I will try." Liu Ping said.

"Remember, you only have one chance. There must be no mistakes." The Grim Reaper said.

"Or else?" Liu Ping asked.

"I will completely dissipate. In truth, the last bit of my soul is entrusted to this matter," the Grim Reaper said.

"Tsk, the pressure on me seems to have increased," Liu Ping said.

"I will ask you one last time. Do you want to help?" the Grim Reaper asked.

"I will," Liu Ping responded.

She lowered her head and put the black ring on Liu Ping’s ring finger.

In an instant.

Lines of burning words quickly appeared in his mind:

[Within the endless Time Stream, there are moments when the future and the past are entwined]

[They determine each other’s fate]

[You will enter a thread of fate that the Goddess of Death maintains with all her might]

[Begin!]

Time seemed to have stopped for a split second.

The Grim Reaper disappeared in front of his eyes.

Liu Ping sensed something and turned to look.

On the street outside the gate of the temple, noises gradually appeared. There was a crowd of people and an endless stream of horses and carriages.

The entire world seemed to have come alive.

The Grim Reaper’s voice came from the black ring:

"Let us speak."

"There is often a glimmer of light hidden in despair."

"On the day of destruction, the most powerful Twins of Death were born. Every time they prayed and sacrificed, my power would grow."

"These two natural-born Shamans erupted with boundless Prayers right before they died and made a wish to me."

"If you can fulfill the Twin’s wish for me, then there will be a change in the situation."

The temple’s door opened.

A well-dressed girl silently peeked her head out, looked around and saw Liu Ping.

"Hardedef, come here!"

The girl waved her hand at him.

Liu Ping hesitated briefly.

The girl stomped her feet, then rushed into the temple and jogged in front of him.

"What’s going on?" Liu Ping couldn’t help but silently ask.

"She is one of the Gemini, and you are currently acting as the other, the other’s wish is to save her" the Grim Reaper’s voice came.

"So I only need to save her?" Liu Ping asked.

"The Gemini’s wish is to save each other."

"You need to act as one to save the other, then immediately act as the second, then save the first, saving both of them," the Grim Reaper explained.

"But I don’t understand them at all," Liu Ping said.

"Do your best, my life or death is in your hands," the Grim Reaper said vaguely.

God quietly interjected: "Actually, this Grim Reaper doesn’t understand them either. Their powers were only awakened at the moment of the world’s destruction, and at that time, the Divinities were all dead, the Grim Reaper also lost all of her powers. Liu Ping, we have to think of a solution ourselves."

"Then where did this power that can pierce through time and space come from?" Mother Gaia asked doubtfully.

"The Divinities knew that they couldn’t escape, so they left the last of their power to the Grim Reaper, thus creating this concealment technique. Now that we’re already in the situation, I can finally tell you, it’s been so suffocating," God said.

"You’ve worked hard, wretched old man," Mother Gaia mocked.

"Be serious, Mother Gaia, this situation isn’t a normal kind of danger." God solemnly said.

"To save two people when the nightmare descends, we might not even be able to survive." Mother Gaia sighed.

Liu Ping silently listened and didn’t say anything.

The girl ran in front of him.

"Auntie Meng isn’t here today, it seems like the Divinities have all disappeared. I’m trying to think of a solution, do you want to come with me?" the girl asked.

Liu Ping paused for a bit, then realized that the so-called ’Auntie Meng’ was the Grim Reaper.

He released his inner sight to observe himself.

He was still the same as before.

But perhaps it was the Divinities’ last bit of power that caused this girl to think that he was the other Divinity.

"What’s your plan?" Liu Ping asked.

"Of course it’s to go to the observatory at the top of the mountain and see the direction of the stars," the girl answered.

While she was talking, lines of text appeared above her head:

[Slumbering Child]

[One of the Death Twins]

[A Reincarnator who awakened the power of ’Slumbering’, if given the chance to grow, in time, she’ll definitely become the Grim Reaper’s right-hand woman]

[Save her, you’ll receive a huge amount of Merit]

[Saving the Divinities is the only chance to change the current parallel world, if you can grasp it]

All the text stopped, but didn’t finish the rest.

However, Liu Ping laughed.

Grasp this chance?

That’s a must.

Since the Divinities released this power before they died, allowing the past and future to change, then ...

He looked down at the girl in front of him and happily said, "The observatory?Come, let’s go together."

The girl instantly smiled and loudly said: "That’s right, I knew you’d come with me!"

"Of course, we’ll do something big," Liu Ping said.

"That’s right!"

The girl became even happier.

She held Liu Ping’s hand and ran out of the shrine.
