Chapter 85
His chest was completely pierced through, even his heart must be severely wounded. It was a fatal blow.
Ah Yun really...didn't want to live anymore.
Why?
Shen Shui Yan looked at the huge patch of red. Even his eyes seemed to be soaked in it. From the inside to the outside, it was dyed so red that it was completely dark, dark without any hint of light.
"Ah Yun..." He called out to him with a quivering voice while his mind was filled with unrest.
A form had frowned on Chu Mu Yun's face because of the blow. He didn't seem to be able to hear anything anymore.
Shen Shui Yan's heart felt hollow. From beginning to end, he hoped only to have this person in his heart, keeping him in his most cherished place, and having him forever.
For that, he tried so hard and did so much. But why...Why would he never obtain him?
He simply liked him, he wanted to have him, just wanted to be with him. But why...Why did Ah Yun have to be so cruel? Why would he choose death over satisfying his desires?
Shen Shui Yan was on the brink of insanity from how disappointed he felt. He held Chu Mu Yun tightly in his arms and spoke in a voice that could almost crumble, "Why? Even though you saved me. You raised me and gave me hope. Why did it have to be someone else? Why did you have to love someone else? Why...Why can't it be me?"
He rested his forehead against Chu Mu Yun's while a hot liquid dripped down his cheeks, falling onto Chu Mu Yun's dry and cracked lips.
Chu Mu Yun let out an extremely soft sigh.
Zero, "I'll probably never be able to understand Greed..."
Why is it that even at this point, Greed's portrait still wouldn't light up? No matter who was looking at it, his emotions looked just like he was deeply in love with him. However...it wasn't.
Chu Mu Yun, "You get sad and upset too when you lose your emojis, but you wouldn't think you were in a relationship with a bunch of them, would you?"
Zero, "..." Truly a statement so enlightening that it left one speechless!
Of course Chu Mu Yun wouldn't actually die. He was practically a professional at "playing dead". What you have to do to look like you're almost dead, how to make it look scary like your life is hanging by a thread, but still surviving in the end. There was nobody more experienced than him.
After all...Not everyone had the opportunity to die so willfully for so many times.
The injury was fatal and the pain was real. His vital organs received severe injuries, but he protected his heart.
With Chu Mu Yun's current cultivation, such an injury wasn't enough to kill him.
All he wanted to do was to make Greed understand that certain things can not be obtained no matter what. Just death alone could make things irreversible.
He thought that Greed's portrait would at least light up a little if he did this, but clearly, this cutie was way more heartless than he expected.
Chu Mu Yun took a deep breath and contemplated his next step.
Just then, something Chu Mu Yun never expected, happened.
Even during Chu Mu Yun and Shen Shui Yan's "farewells", the rift of the boundary wall never stopped expanding. Moreover, the rift was unexpectedly large this time and was still expanding at a fast rate. By the time it was done, it nearly covered the entire sky.
Holding Chu Mu Yun, Shen Shui Yan turned around and saw a man walk out from the rift.
He was wearing a long robe that was pale like the moon, and the wide sleeves almost seemed to flow like water, falling in an arc like the dazzling Milky Way.
But nothing could match the immeasurable beauty of that face. One glance was enough for a person to fall.
He had such peerless beauty, and yet Shen Shui Yan's pupils shrank the moment he saw him. The hatred that surged from his eyes seemed even denser than the dark aura of the rift.
Xie Qian Lan!
He actually returned!
On the other hand, Chu Mu Yun who was in the know recognized him with one glance. "It's Pride..."
Zero, "/(ㄒoㄒ)/~~Long time no see, my lord!"
Chu Mu Yun, "I didn't realize how fond you were of him."
Zero, "He's the first captured target after all!"
Chu Mu Yun, "Like being imprinted, huh?"
Zero, "That's why I like my host the best."
Chu Mu Yun, "..."
Even though Chu Mu Yun didn't feel like meeting the Pride again from a few millennia later, the current Pride was still an unrelated person with a clean slate, so Chief Chu was quite happy to pull him into the fray.
With a face that looked exactly the same as Xie Qian Lan's, it would be a shame for him not to use him.
While Chu Mu Yun stared unblinkingly at Mo Jiu Shao, Shen Shui Yan had already called out to him fiercely. "Xie Qian Lan!"
Spitting out those three words through gritted teeth, Shen Shui Yan stood up and drew his sword. Instantly, a surging flame dragon was shot out with its teeth and fangs bared.
Mo Jiu Shao frowned slightly, understanding in an instant what had happened.
"Halt!" He dodged Shen Shui Yan's move and did not return fire.
Shen Shui Yan was furious. For 'Xie Qian Lan' to appear while he was worrying that he would have nowhere to vent his anger, how could he let him go now?!
Seeing that he was charging up an even more terrifying spell, Mo Jiu Shao's eyes moved and saw the heavily injured man behind him. He shouted, "Do you want him to die here?!"
His one sentence managed to bring Shen Shui Yan back to his senses, but his reason was quickly destroyed by his disappointment and indignation. Xie Qian Lan was back, the man Ah Yun had been thinking of was back. Now, he had no way of obtaining this person. He had lost him completely. He...
Mo Jiu Shao raised a brow. In the instant he drew his sword, he quickly said, "I am not Xie Qian Lan. He wields the Qin of Attachment and specializes with enchanting people. However, I wield a sword. If you do not believe me, spar with me and you will understand."
As soon as he was done speaking, the sound of the Zhuyue Sword Art sounded.
Shen Shui Yan was no fool and understood that though this man appeared very much like Xie Qian Lan, his temperament was the complete opposite. It was easy for someone to disguise his appearance, but to disguise their character was a difficult task.
Even though he understood this, he still felt so bitter that he couldn't help but draw his sword and sparred with him, exchanging over a hundred strikes.
With just this session, both of them frowned.
Shen Shui Yan knew that this wasn't Xie Qian Lan.
However, Mo Jiu Shao was amazed to find that someone could practice such long lost incantations with such great strength.
A thought trickled into Mo Jiu Shao's mind as he took the initiative to say, "I am somewhat skilled in medicine. If you are willing, I can treat his injuries for you."
Shen Shui Yan looked at him on complete alert, but in such a situation, only death awaits Chu Mu Yun if he is not saved. If he received help, then there might still be hope.
Shen Shui Yan lowered his eyes. "Please."
Mo Jiu Shao introduced himself, and Shen Shui Yan did as well.
But the most important thing needn't be said. It was only natural that Mo Jiu Shao did not have the ability to bring back the dead. However, Chu mu Yun was skilled. With his help, his injuries quickly stabilized.
When he saw Chu Mu Yun's breathing returning to normal, the coldness slowly faded from Shen Shui Yan's eyes.
After about two hours, his injury was finally completely stabilized.
Mo Jiu Shao put down Chu Mu Yun's wrist and turned to Shen Shui Yan. "Were you aware that the Beast of Charm plagued his body this whole time?"
Shen Shui Yan asked, puzzled, "The Beast of Charm?"
