Chapter One Hundred Eighty-Seven: Xiwei Lends Aid — Radiance Blazing
Volume Five: Body-Perish Dao-Transformation — Myriad Realms First Born
As Pangu's Spirit-Soul battled the Chaos remnants, it began to flicker. The remnants were too many, too persistent, and the soul had too little strength left. The golden-white sphere dimmed, contracted, wavered like a candle flame in a gale.
And then Xiwei was there.
She had been watching from above, her light dimmed with grief, but now she blazed with a fury that surprised even herself. She dove from the Celestial Dome like a falling star, her radiance intensifying with every passing instant until she was no longer a gentle sun but a missile of pure, concentrated light.
She crashed into the mass of Chaos remnants like a spear of fire. The darkness shrieked — a soundless, psychic scream that rippled across the world. Where Xiwei's light touched the remnants, they burned — not with ordinary fire, but with the purifying flame of a spirit that had been touched by the creator's own hand.
'I will not let you take him,' Xiwei cried — not in words, but in the language of light, in the desperate pulse of her radiance. 'He is ours. He is the world's. You cannot have him.'
She wrapped her light around Pangu's fading soul, shielding it, feeding it the last reserves of her own strength. Her radiance dimmed with the effort — she was giving him everything she had, holding nothing back.
Xiwei lends aid, radiance blazing. The daughter had come to defend her father. And in her light, the creator's soul found the strength to fight on.
