Chapter 463 Thunder and Lightning
Chapter 463 Thunder and Lightning
"No."
Her pure pink hair, like newly-bloomed cherry blossoms, falls on both sides of her shoulders, and her light blue eyes are like white ice, making it difficult to touch the warmth in them.
Lei Dian Lingyi stared at the pink-haired girl who appeared before him.
The person in front of me is called Sakura. According to the historical records of Izumo, several dozen Amber Epochs ago, he appeared in the sky holding a sword that bloomed like a cherry blossom when eight million gods fell into Izumo.
The icy sword provided Izumo with extremely precious breathing time at the beginning, and later on, when he killed "Tsumu Karishami", it served as an opportunity for the swordsmiths to forge the first imperial sword [True].
The imperial swords have spirits, and the imperial sword that belongs to Sakura is the fifth one - [Frost] forged to kill "Tian Zhi Dong Yi".
Very few people know the past of the person in front of them. Sakura has always been taciturn and rarely interacts with others, but her contribution to Izumo makes her an irreplaceable hero.
There is always a knife as cold as ice and a sword as white as cherry hanging on Ying's waist, and the number of evil spirits she has killed is too numerous to count.
When the Imperial Sword Users were first established, Sakura received nearly the first place in the voting meeting to select the Imperial Sword Master, but she clearly chose to refuse.
"I am not the sword that saves the world."
At that time, Ying replied calmly: "He is not someone who traveled through the Great Sun."
Lei Dian Lingyi naturally respects Ying's opinion. It can be said that very few people would have any opinions about Ying. The imperial sword user holding [Frost] always appears at the most critical moment to face the evil beasts, and then leaves silently after destroying everything.
She never desired fame or asked for anything in return.
Only occasionally, someone would see a pink-haired girl sitting under a tree in the Lotus Heart Lake where cherry blossoms were falling. There was a sword and a knife placed on the lawn in front of her. She had her eyes closed and was reminiscing about something.
"What is your opinion?" Lei Dianling asked. In his opinion, all the things that fell into the world from Takama-ga-hara were transformed from evil spirits, and the baby in front of him might be the material for forging the sword that Izumo had been looking for for many years.
If it is neither an animal nor a ghost, then it can only be "God".
This baby is most likely the real god in Takamagahara.
"..." Sakura stared at the baby in front of her. There was no special reason, just that the baby looked very similar to a baby she had seen before.
On that rainy night, that was her first encounter with that man.
He once swung his sword at the "God" and gained true freedom.
At the same time, he also gave himself a brand new future, which enabled him to arrive at Izumo at the most critical moment.
"I want to keep him."
It’s not about “want”, but “need”.
Sakura rarely expressed such a direct attitude. Lei Dian Ling thought deeply for a long time after hearing this, and said in a deep voice: "We naturally believe that you have the ability to control the newborn god of Takamagahara, but... this is also Izumo's hope to escape the shadow of 'Dainichi'."
Sakura shook her head.
Lei Dian Ling looked solemn, but finally compromised and said, "At least let Long Ma do the most basic examination. We need to know the baby's physical data."
This is also the minimum level of protection, and it is also a responsibility to Izumo.
After all, this is the first case. Izumo has never seen a baby falling from Takama-ga-hara before. He must find out whether the baby in front of him is a god or a beast.
Ying nodded slightly, "I want to follow."
It's not that she doesn't trust him, but this is extremely important to Sakura. Her right hand, which has always held the knife steadily, is trembling slightly.
"please."
Lei Dian Lingyi signaled to the guards to hand the baby to Sakura. He was not worried at all that Sakura would do anything bad to Izumo. The pink-haired girl in front of him was as pure as Sakura was inside and out.
Ying stared at the baby in her arms, feeling a little dazed for a moment.
She would not remember it wrongly, nor would she forget their first encounter on that rainy night, and everything that happened afterwards.
The voice of Sister Sakura seemed to echo in her ears, so real, yet so confusing.
What exactly is going on?
Is this the choice of fate, or a never-ending cycle?
She was originally a passer-by in reincarnation, but she was able to meet him again. What kind of future does it symbolize?
Ying did not follow Lei Dian Lingyi's car, but instead held the baby and moved freely along the walls of the tall buildings like a shadow, as fast as a flash of cold light.
Lei Dian Lingyi still felt a little emotional as he watched Ying leave. No matter how many times he saw it, he would still be shocked. Can the human body really reach such a level?
As expected, the one who wields the imperial sword...maybe he can no longer be called a "human".
The Raiden family is located in the place where the gods first fell. The gods first fell from Takama-ga-hara eight million years ago. After obtaining the body of the Tsumu-kariya divine beast, the ancestors of the Raiden family were able to forge the first imperial sword and have passed down the lineage of swordsmiths to this day.
Since then, the Raiden family has been divided into two branches: the sword-wielding branch and the sword-making branch, and the head of the family is chosen from the two branches in turn.
Lei Dian Lingyi is a leader in the sword-wielding school. He has mastered the Beichen Itosaur Style to perfection and serves as the head of the Lei Dian family of this generation.
"Master of the house."
In front of the gate under the first cherry blossoms, the guards all had sharp swords hanging around their waists.
Lei Dian Lingyi nodded slightly, "Where's Longma?"
"Master Ryoma is still in the lab."
After getting the accurate answer, Lei Dian Lingyi walked towards the laboratory until he saw the cold and beautiful figure under a tree not far away. Ying arrived even faster than he did by car.
He noticed the baby in Sakura's arms, who was looking at Sakura with big eyes in the cradle, still without crying or making a fuss.
Although he still looks like a normal baby, how could falling from Takamagahara be normal?
"please."
Lei Dian Lingyi led the way from the front, and Ying followed silently behind him holding the baby.
The cleanliness in the laboratory can be described as obsessive-compulsive. It is certain that the owner here has a mysophobia far beyond that of ordinary people. The faint smell of disinfectant lingers at the tip of the nose. A man who has not shaved for who knows how long, with medium-length hair that has just been washed with cold water, stares at the ore in the culture chamber without blinking.
"Longma, it's time for you to rest," Lei Dian Lingyi patted the middle-aged man on the back and said helplessly, "You don't look like a new father."
Lei Dian Long Ma scratched his head and laughed, "You haven't become a qualified father yet, Patriarch, what brings you here?"
"I've told you many times, just call me Lingyi," Lei Dian Lingyi signaled with his eyes, "This is Ying. The baby in her arms fell from Takamagahara into Izumo during the earlier defense battle. You need to check it out."
"Takamagahara?"
There was a flash of shock in Ryoma's eyes, but then there was a frenzy of searching for the truth. This might be the only chance to learn the truth about Takamagahara.
Sakura added calmly, "I want him."
This means that it cannot be harmed, nor can it be used as material for forging swords.
Thunder Dragon Horse pondered for a moment and murmured, "You mean that the rewards brought by the person in front of me growing up as a warrior will far exceed the effect of forging a sword?"
"As expected of Lord Sakura, what you have secured for Izumo will be a blessing to future generations."
A brief moment of confusion flashed across Ying's cold face. So...is this what she thought?
The baby was carried to the observation deck by Raiden Ryoma in a somewhat unfamiliar manner, and a warm mat was placed on it in advance. This made Ling Yi, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but laugh and said, "You don't look like a father at all. You must have worked so hard, Mitsuki."
"Our daughter will surely be an outstanding imperial swordsman when she grows up. This little setback is nothing."
When talking about his daughter, Raiden Ryoma's tone is tinged with pride.
Ying's eyes flickered slightly when she heard this, but she didn't say anything in the end.
In her opinion, being an imperial swordsman was not an honor, but a curse of Izumo.
After a detailed examination, all the data showed that the baby in front of them was an ordinary human being, not a beast or a god, but just a human baby.
An ordinary baby that fell from Takamagahara.
No one can imagine that this thing has anything to do with ordinary things. How can a baby fall from a height of ten thousand meters and still be alive and well and smiling without any harm?
"We need longer observation time, at least in years."
Raiden Ryoma adheres to the rigor of an experimenter and tells the truth. Even if it is for Izumo, a certain degree of control is needed, otherwise no one can bear the risk.
"I need to send the research data to the Izumo Family Council for evaluation. By then, the most likely outcome will be that they will be killed as experimental material."
Lei Dian Lingyi knew the thoughts of the other family heads better than anyone else. When people face the evil ghosts in the sky, their first emotion will only be fear. Only those who can overcome fear can lead Izumo through the shadow of the sun.
If you are afraid, nothing can be changed.
If you don't face it, the future that awaits you will be filled with loneliness!
Lei Dian Lingyi doesn't want Izumo to become the second Takama-ga-hara, so he has to take a gamble, the only possible hope.
From the beginning to the end, he was clear about one thing: the Twelve Imperial Swords were never an invincible solution. If the Imperial Swords were lost one day, how would the people of Izumo resist the evil beasts of Takama-ga-hara?
"I'll vouch for him."
Ying nodded slightly, knowing that the man in front of her was not lying. The reason why she became so taciturn now was related to her personality, but more importantly, she did not want to be too involved with various family forces.
When the eight million gods first fell into Izumo, the families worked together to forge the Twelve Imperial Swords, but after gaining a brief peace, they began to engage in unnecessary internal friction.
Ying knows that this is the inevitable path for "human beings". Desires never disappear, but sometimes it is more important to survive.
"Then I suggest that we hide him in the Lei Dian family," Lei Dian Lingyi looked at Ying without any dodging, "If you are worried, you can come and check at any time."
"I believe."
Ying's answer was still brief and to the point. She looked at the baby in the cradle with a lot of confusion and complexity in her cold eyes.
At this time, Raiden Ryoma said: "It's just right to give Meiyi a playmate, haha," he assured Sakura:
"We will take good care of him."
"Ah."
Ying thought for a long time and said, "Since you don't have a name, from today on... you will be called An Ming."
If it's a new beginning, Ying doesn't want to interfere with Anming's future.
Just live the life he wants.
[When you were one year old, you fell into the clouds above Takamagahara. In order to hide your true identity, you were adopted by Lei Dian Lingyi. ]
[Two years old. After a year of observation and examination, Raiden Ryoma can swear on his experimental career that you are an ordinary baby.]
[Ying often comes to visit you, mostly late at night, because she doesn't want to attract extra attention because of her identity.]
[You rarely cry and are always unusually calm. What you like to do most is to sit on the edge of the corridor outside the room and feel the warm sunshine.]
[Raiden Ryoma discovered that the only thing you hate is darkness, and you have to turn on the lights every night to fall asleep]
"Xiao Anming~"
Lei Dian Guang Xi smiled and put the cute pink dress on An Ming, her eyes were full of sparkles, "Husband, look, the clothes I bought for Mei also suit An Ming very well!"
"this..."
Lei Dian Long Ma was a little embarrassed, but after taking a closer look, it was true. Two-year-old An Ming was so cute that people couldn't help but want to pinch his cheeks.
In addition, An Ming always has an expression of having no desires or demands, and he will not cry no matter how hard he is tortured.
If it were Mei, she would have cried and kicked him hard in the face with her little feet.
The two people who raised An Ming as a girl saw the contemptuous eyes from the two-year-old child for the first time. An Ming, who was wearing a little skirt, wanted to roll out of the room, but was picked up by Lei Dian Guangxi.
The purple-haired little girl sitting next to him also giggled and waved her hands at Xiao Anming.
[Three years old. You have already spent three years in the Raiden family. Everyone in the family likes you very much because you are so cute. Even the hardest-hearted people will soften their hearts when they see your cute little face.]
[Leidian Lingyi always helps buy things to take care of Anming, but according to Leidian Guangxi's original words, this child is so easy to take care of that he doesn't seem like a child. He is so smart that he doesn't even need diapers.]
[However, Lei Dian Ling fell silent after seeing the little skirt in the closet, and finally bought normal clothes for An Ming silently.]
[Raiden Mei always looks at you, her "little brother", with curious eyes. In her eyes, An Ming is like a child from another world. He always sits on the futon and basks in the sun with a calm face.]
"You...hey."
Xiao Yayi struggled for a long time before she climbed up the wooden fence of the corridor. She puffed up her little face and stared at An Ming, "Dad said that children can't climb so high."
"Then can you keep it a secret for me?"
An Ming supported Mei's unstable body and said calmly.
Mei didn't quite understand why the boy in front of her, who was a few months younger than her, knew so many things like an adult.
"Well, but don't tell mom," Mei said softly. She stole a glance at the pond below her feet and was a little afraid of heights. She closed her eyes in fear, and her two little hands tightly grasped An Ming's sleeves.
"If we don't let go, we'll all fall."
An Ming continued to speak in a calm childish voice, "Simply running away will not make the fear go away. Whether you want to see it or not, it is there."
"You're right!" Xiao Yayi mustered up the courage to open her eyes, and the next second she pulled An Ming into the pond.
