Chapter 397 Ning Rongrong, who is utterly despondent; the trio of best friends
Under Ning Rongrong's increasingly shocked and dazed gaze, three whole days and nights passed in the blink of an eye.
Ning Rongrong, hanging on the wall, had eyes that had long since turned into dead fish eyes due to prolonged stimulation and fatigue, and looked utterly miserable with no will to live.
She couldn't even imagine how she had managed to get through those three days.
In particular, her body was still being interfered with by the power of chaos. In order to "ambush" Xiao Wu, she had exhausted all her divine power and had no extra strength to block her senses.
Even if you close your eyes and don't look at it, it will still appear in your mind.
……
Huo Yuhao usually acts like a blockhead, so how come he's so adept at this kind of thing?
He had originally planned and schemed to push Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing to Huo Yuhao's side, thereby leaving himself a way out.
But looking at the current momentum of development, it's really quite frightening.
At this moment, the three of them were enjoying a rare moment of peace.
Having regained some of her strength, Zhu Zhuqing leaned lazily on Huo Yuhao's shoulder, a slight smile playing on her lips.
With a mischievous glint in her heterochromatic eyes, she teased Xiao Wu, who was on the other side:
"Xiao Wu, do you still want to die now... I just don't know what you're thinking now after all you've been through."
Hearing Zhu Zhuqing's blunt and unforgiving teasing...
Xiao Wu instantly blushed and shrank even further into Huo Yuhao's arms, like an ostrich trying to hide her current embarrassment.
After all, she never imagined that she, a habitual offender, would one day be teased by Zhu Zhuqing.
All of this was done to get rid of Cupid's despicable methods.
……
Hearing the conversation between Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu, Huo Yuhao's lips twitched involuntarily.
It took the three of them quite a while to get their clothes back on properly.
After getting ready, the three of them stood not far from Ning Rongrong.
Xiao Wu crossed her arms, looked at Ning Rongrong who was still firmly pinned to the wall by the Golden Dragon Spear, and sneered through gritted teeth:
"Although thanks to your despicable methods, I've rediscovered the will to live. But we still need to keep things separate."
You forcibly took over Rongrong's body, and all the scheming you've done against us in the shadows during this time—these debts must be settled.
"To avenge Rongrong, you must pay with your life here."
Hearing Xiao Wu's undisguised killing intent, Ning Rongrong, who had been lost in thought and looking utterly hopeless after watching for three days and three nights, instantly snapped back to reality.
Feeling a real threat of death, she immediately struggled again, shouting urgently:
"Xiao Wu, it's me, it's Rongrong! The Cupid who plotted against you used up all his last strength in order to forcefully influence you, and his soul and spirit have been completely destroyed."
I am Rongrong, who was imprisoned deep within the nine-colored goddess's soul by her divine power. I finally regained control of my body!
Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu were both startled and instinctively exchanged a quick glance.
They were already close sisters, and after becoming sisters by sharing a husband, they could understand each other's true thoughts and concerns with just a simple glance.
Without a doubt, if the Cupid in front of them, who was full of bad intentions, really turned out to be their former best friend Ning Rongrong, then things would not end so easily.
Thinking of this, Xiao Wu coughed lightly, cleared her throat, and stared sharply at Ning Rongrong on the wall, questioning her:
"Words are no proof. You say you are Rongrong, but how do we know if you are that cunning Cupid, deliberately disguising yourself to gain our sympathy?"
"You know, Cupid has occupied Rongrong's body for so long, and he possesses all of Rongrong's memories. So what solid evidence do you have to prove that you are the real Rongrong?"
evidence?
This sudden question left Ning Rongrong momentarily stunned.
After a long while, she awkwardly suggested, "All the divine power in my body is being suppressed and devoured by this golden dragon spear, and I am completely unable to move."
"Have Yuhao put away the Golden Dragon Spear first. Once I regain a little mobility, I can display the unique abilities and aura of the Nine-Colored Goddess to prove that I wasn't lying."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Wu decisively shook her head and retorted without any politeness, "Do you think I'm a three-year-old rabbit? Yu Hao just went through a lot of effort to pin you to this wall with one blow."
If I were to unleash the Golden Dragon Spear now and release the pressure on you, what if you, if you are Cupid in disguise, take the opportunity to escape, or use some other insidious means against us?
Besides, who can guarantee that Cupid won't use the martial spirit and divine power left behind by Rongrong?
Zhu Zhuqing, who was standing to the side, nodded slightly and agreed, saying, "Xiao Wu is right, we can't take this risk."
When I first came to see the Goddess of Love, the power she used to trap and imprison me was to condense the shape of a pagoda, and its aura was extremely similar to that of the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda.
"By simply displaying divine authority, we cannot discern the truth or falsehood in your words."
Faced with repeated questioning from her two former best friends, Ning Rongrong was now completely panicked.
Her voice, tinged with barely concealed panic, replied, "Aren't we best friends?"
Even without those external evidences, based on the bond between us, you should be able to recognize me intuitively as the real Rongrong!
She never expected that her meticulously planned scheme would fail so miserably at this crucial step.
According to her original assumption, when she tearfully recounted her tragic experience of "escaping death" and finally regaining control of her body,
As best friends, shouldn't Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing be so excited to hear this amazing news that they burst into tears, grateful for the miracle, and then rush to save themselves?
If this stalemate continues, I'm afraid I'll really be stabbed to death by Huo Yuhao, who's been standing there expressionless and silent the whole time.
Upon hearing these emotional appeals, Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing exchanged a knowing glance, their eyes clearly conveying a tacit understanding.
Then, Xiao Wu put on an indifferent and cold attitude and said in a detached tone, "Anyway, we have already lost Rongrong for thousands of years, and we have long been used to life without her."
Now that I think about it carefully, it seems like it wouldn't have made much difference to us whether she was there or not. Or rather, you really are Rongrong who just happened to survive.
Knowing what we just did with Yuhao will actually make the situation more complicated for us.
So I think that if you, as an outsider, could completely disappear today, it would actually be a blessing for everyone.
Upon hearing this, Ning Rongrong finally understood what the two people meant.
This is hardly sisterly affection; they are clearly trying to drag each other down with them, turning the original trio of best friends into a gang of sluts.
Only when everyone is in the same boat can we better keep the secret.
Thinking of this, Ning Rongrong couldn't help but steal a few glances at Huo Yuhao.
Just as she said at the beginning, Huo Yuhao in his current state is indeed someone who can be delighted at first glance.
If he had been born in my time and was as dazzling as he is now, I would have abandoned everything and rushed to be with him.
She silently thought of Oscar, who had sacrificed himself for her, and felt somewhat sorry for him.
But then I thought about it again. Oscar’s original intention in resolutely igniting the flame of life was to be able to live a good life.
That's why I have to carry Oscar's last wish and live well by any means necessary, so as not to let his sacrifice go to waste.
So if Little Ao is watching from heaven, he will surely understand and support the choices he has made.
After quickly completing this mental exercise of self-comfort, Ning Rongrong, with no more reservations, slightly raised her head and said, "I feel that I can also become one of everyone's closest members."
As she spoke, she deliberately put on an unusually shy expression and looked at Huo Yuhao, who was standing there.
Those big, bright eyes blinked slightly, their gazes radiating an undisguised allure, like an electric shock.
Seeing that Huo Yuhao remained completely unmoved, without even a change in expression, Ning Rongrong felt anxious again and quickly added:
"Although that goddess of love is dead, I can still use the divine authority she left behind. Given time, I can use my divine power to restore my body to its original state."
Furthermore, I can completely erase all memories of the Oscars from my mind.
That's enough.
Huo Yuhao, who had been observing coldly, no longer had the patience to watch Ning Rongrong put on this clumsy farce. He interrupted her coldly:
"What you just said is completely unnecessary. I have absolutely no interest in your body."
Now that you have regained your body and can use the power of the God of Love, you should continue to stay here and maintain the operation of the Valley of Love and Destiny.
Do your part to help the Douluo Continent resist the invasion of the Abyss Continent.
But before that, in order for me to completely trust that you won't do anything underhanded behind my back again, I'd like to sign a soul contract with you. You shouldn't have any objections, right?
The reason why Huo Yuhao hadn't spoken up to stop them before was because he could clearly sense that Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing had already realized that the person nailed to the wall was Ning Rongrong herself.
Based on their experiences over this period, they could easily deduce that Ning Rongrong had been posing as the so-called goddess of love, secretly plotting against them.
In this situation, it's perfectly normal for Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing to take this opportunity to mock Ning Rongrong and vent their resentment from being schemed against.
When Ning Rongrong heard Huo Yuhao bluntly say that he had no interest in her, her face, which had just been deliberately maintaining a shy and charming demeanor, instantly froze.
If it weren't for her helping Tang San, she and Huo Yuhao would never have had any further interaction.
Even after Huo Yuhao ascended to the God Realm and became the God of Emotions, they were not familiar with each other at all, unlike Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu, who had many connections with Huo Yuhao.
Especially Zhu Zhuqing, after moving to live near Huo Yuhao's house, the two saw each other all the time, so their relationship was naturally different.
Even knowing all this, Ning Rongrong, who was always proud and extremely confident in her appearance and charm, couldn't believe that Huo Yuhao really had no interest in her body at all.
