Chapter 1909: Eighth Seraphim vs. Eye of Darkness (50)
God looked steadily at the Seraphim before him, whose silver eyes and silver hair were cold and indifferent, and suddenly sighed: "You still resent me."
Gu Shengyin shook her head: "I have never blamed you, God."
She spoke calmly: "The Balance of Light and Darkness is a natural law; you, as the God of Creation, made such choices to uphold the balance of the entire world, and there is no issue with that."
God suddenly chuckled.
This was probably the first time Gu Shengyin had seen any expression other than indifference on God’s face.
He said hoarsely: "You don’t blame me, yet you no longer approach me."
He stood up and looked at Gu Shengyin: "In the end, Gallia, you still can’t forgive me."
Gu Shengyin shook her head once more: "Gallia just feels, God, that you are naturally suited to overlook all beings from above. My past delusion of entering your world was the greatest mistake."
God’s expression suddenly changed.
He looked at Gu Shengyin, stepped forward, and asked: "What do you mean by what you said?"
Gu Shengyin raised her head and did not evade God’s gaze.
She replied: "I once relied on you, admired you, even believed that God would reciprocate the same emotions for me. But I was wrong."
In her expression, there was no trace of sadness or sorrow, only a touch of comprehension that sees through everything: "You are the Creator God, and all things in heaven and earth are your children. You are benevolent, and in your heart, nothing compares to the world you created with your own hands."
She suddenly bowed and knelt before God, paying a great tribute.
"You are still Gallia’s most devoutly worshiped divinity, but Gallia no longer deludes herself into thinking she can win your heart."
God’s mind was shaken.
Gallia’s words could not be clearer.
That henceforth, the relationship between him and her would only be the unmistakably clear one of divinity and believer.
She had given up on him.
For some reason, a phrase suddenly flashed through God’s mind.
He raised his hand and pulled Gu Shengyin up: "Gallia, do you know what you are saying?"
Gu Shengyin did not try to break free, because she knew that if God did not want to let go, she could never escape.
She lowered her eyes and said: "God, Gallia once asked you, if fate chose me, would you make the same choice."
God’s gaze darkened.
Gu Shengyin spoke to herself: "Your answer was affirmative."
She raised her head and looked earnestly at God: "Gallia does not think your choice is wrong. But Gallia believes that if I regard you as faith, being abandoned would only be the collapse of faith. But if I regard you as the sole purpose of life..."
Her gaze suddenly became fierce: "Then it would be better to break as jade than survive as pottery!"
Saying this, the intensity burning in Gallia’s eyes shocked God.
He unconsciously released the hand holding Gu Shengyin.
Gu Shengyin stepped back, putting away her expression, almost as if the fierce words just now hadn’t been hers.
She spoke calmly: "So God, to avoid us reaching that point, let go."
God’s lips trembled. He wanted to say something, but upon seeing Gallia’s insightful gaze, he found himself unable to utter a word.
Sensing the divinity’s departure, Gu Shengyin breathed a sigh of relief.
The system suddenly asked: "Is the host very sad?"
Gu Shengyin smiled bitterly: "Probably."
She thought of the gaze God had given her when he left.
He was probably the one most deeply wounded, wasn’t he?
