Bai Yijun walked in front of Ye Chen, the White Snow Divine Sword on her back emitting a gentle glow. She bent down and looked at Ye Chen. Ye Chen's eyes were closed, and he had fainted. The black aura in his brain had disappeared, as if it had entered the central core of his brain.
Inside the black pagoda, there was a hint of desolation.
Bai Yijun's face was as pale as paper, and her lips were pale. The hand holding the White Snow Divine Sword trembled slightly. The gentle glow on the White Snow Divine Sword flickered.
Her limpid eyes reflected Ye Chen's face. After staring at him for a long time, she suddenly raised her slender hands and hugged Ye Chen.
At this moment, she felt that the body in her hands was like a ten thousand pound mountain.
Time seemed to stop. After a long time, she slowly stood up, turned around, and walked up the passage to the ninth floor.
… …
In the center of the debris of the stars C-0986.
In the deep monster cave, two rays of light appeared out of nowhere, as if they had passed through a crack in the netherworld. The light dissipated, and two figures appeared. One of them was a woman dressed in white, carrying a snow-white longsword on her back. The body of the sword was like autumn frost, and it glowed with a white light.
In the woman's arms was a man covered in golden flames. His eyebrows were as thick as swords, his face was as sharp as a knife, and his nose was as high as a mountain. His black hair was loose, and he looked somewhat wild and desolate.
Bai Yijun's head was lowered, and her expression could not be seen clearly. Her figure moved, and she dashed into the distance. In a few flashes, she disappeared, leaving the deep, dark cave.
The debris of the stars C-0986 had a diameter of one hundred million kilometers!
In the northeast, in the forest, Bai Yijun's figure was like the wind, jumping between the ancient towering trees. Fragments of blood-red light shone through the withered branches, covering the ground in a layer of blood.
The trees on the debris of the stars were all hundreds of meters tall, like a majestic mountain peak. Their roots were intertwined, and the bottom of the towering ancient trees was covered with weeds. Light rarely shone in, so it was quite dark inside. A faint smell of blood filled the air, and sometimes one or two white skeletons could be seen.
Suddenly, where Bai Yijun passed by, the forest below shook, and a ferocious Monster Beast leapt out. It opened its bloody mouth, and an unpleasant stench blew towards her as it tried to bite her.
Bai Yijun's face turned cold. She didn't do anything, and she didn't even use the White Snow Divine Sword on her back. She just raised her hand and pointed. A ray of golden light in the shape of a sword shot out and pierced through the beast's head. Blood and brain matter splattered everywhere. The corpse fell down and was thrown far away by Bai Yijun.
Not long after flying, Bai Yijun suddenly felt Ye Chen struggling in her hand. She couldn't help but be startled. Then, she was overjoyed and quickly looked down. Her eyes were filled with caution, expectation, and a bit of nervousness.
Under her gaze, Ye Chen slowly opened his eyes. The moment he opened his slightly tired eyes, a delicate and beautiful face entered his sight. It was as if he was in a dream. He could not help but be stunned for a moment. Only when he heard the whistling of the wind and felt a chill did he wake up slightly. He looked around and clearly saw the situation around him.
Bai Yijun quickly said, "I'll take you back immediately. Don't worry. When we arrive at the gathering place, I'll send a message and ask the spaceship to pick you up. In five hours, it will take you back to Thunder Square. You must hang in there!"
Ye Chen gazed at her. His eyes dimmed. He slowly and weakly shook his head and whispered, "I know my situation. I can only hang in there for ten more minutes. When I turn into the 'Lost Soul', you can kill me. Find a place and bury my body."
Bai Yijun slightly bit her lower lip. Blood flowed from her red lips into her mouth. Her eyes were filled with tears. She choked and said, "You can definitely hang in there. You still want to see your sister. You still want to let her see you one last time. You must hang in there!"
Ye Chen suddenly felt a chill on his face. He looked up and saw a few drops of crystal-clear water sliding down the girl's white chin. He was slightly startled. Then his eyes softened. He said gently, "There's no need for that. After this, take a token from me and go see my sister. Tell her that I'm in seclusion training in a very distant place. Maybe I'll be training for a long time. When I'm done, I'll go see her …"
Speaking until here, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his body. His throat itched. He couldn't help but cough. Immediately, he spat out a mouthful of black blood. It was as thick as ink. A few drops of blood spilled on Bai Yijun's white clothes. It was a shocking sight.
Bai Yijun was very anxious. She quickly said, "Don't talk. Hang in there. We'll be there soon!"
Ye Chen felt that his vision was a little blurry. The vitality in his body was flowing away. This feeling was very similar to before his rebirth. But at that time, he was alone …
"Can you sing?" Ye Chen suddenly asked.
Bai Yijun was startled. Her eyes widened. She looked at Ye Chen in astonishment. "You, what do you want to do?"
Ye Chen couldn't see her expression, but he could hear the surprise in her voice. He smiled and said, "Sing a song. Let me hear your voice at the last moment of my death."
Bai Yijun was startled. Then she became silent. After a while, she said in a low voice, "I only know one song. It's from the Sky Sound civilization. It's called 'Farewell.'"
(Note: The Sky Sound civilization is one of the many prehistoric civilizations. They specialize in music. Their fighting style is mostly musical instruments. Their sound attacks are extremely terrifying. They specialize in illusions and focus on cultivating the power of the soul.)
"En." Ye Chen replied in a low voice.
Bai Yijun bit her lips and slowly opened her mouth to sing in a low voice. A beautiful and sorrowful song rang out in this lifeless, towering ancient forest. It reverberated and spread to the entire sky. Only the blood-red full moon didn't change in the slightest. It was like an icy cold eye that looked down on the vast land.
Bai Yijun sang in a low voice. Tears flowed down her face. She shuttled through the forest. Not long after, she passed by a majestic mountain peak. She stopped. Her figure leaped and climbed to the peak.
A faint mist surrounded the mountainside. The peak was bitterly cold. As far as the eye could see, there were white clouds all around. Through the gaps in the clouds, one could see the mountains and rivers below.
The familiar song did not stop. It echoed in Ye Chen's ears. He nestled in Bai Yijun's arms. His expression was peaceful. There seemed to be a faint smile on his lips. His eyes were closed. He was immersed in this distant song.
After a long time, a long time …
He lowered his head and put his hands together.
The song that had never stopped suddenly stopped. The entire peak became silent. It was so quiet that it was a little scary.
After an unknown period of time, the song that had stopped sounded again. It was like the cry of an oriole. It brought with it a melancholy sadness. It made people cry. It echoed on the peak …
The clouds were deep.
There was silence between heaven and earth. It was as if only this mournful song was slowly whispering …
Until ten minutes later, it was interrupted by a beast-like roar. Bai Yijun suddenly stood up and retreated ten feet. In front of her, Ye Chen, who had lost his life, had stood up. His expression was ruthless and ferocious. His eyes were red and bloodshot. He stared at Bai Yijun with bloodthirsty eyes.
Whose eyes were this face reflected in?
Bai Yijun's slender fingers clenched. She gently bit her lower lip. Looking at this familiar yet strange face, she could no longer find any familiar expression on that face. She was silent for a moment. Then she slowly raised her hand.
She reached back and gripped the hilt of her sword.
Clang!
The White Snow Divine Sword was like an ice dragon. It was suddenly unsheathed from behind her. The sound of the sword reverberated in all directions. It shook heaven and earth. Even the mountain wind seemed to be cut into pieces.
Bai Yijun held the White Snow Divine Sword in her hand. She stared at the "Soulless" Ye Chen. Her eyes flickered slightly. Finally, she gritted her teeth and charged forward.
The sword was like a rainbow.
Head on, it slashed down.
The majestic sword aura, with a desolate coldness, pierced through the void. It tore through the sky and crashed toward Ye Chen.
At this moment, time seemed to have stopped flowing.
The two of them looked at each other.
Who would cry in the end?
Poof!
The sword aura, like ice and snow, crashed and exploded. In front of Ye Chen, there was suddenly an invisible barrier.
Bai Yijun could not help but be stunned. She put away the White Snow Divine Sword and looked over.
In front of Ye Chen, who had a violent expression, stood a small figure. It was fluffy all over, and its fur was as white as snow. It had two long ears. Who else could it be other than Little White Rabbit?
At this moment, the Little White Rabbit's black eyes were slightly red, as if blood was about to drip out. It bared its teeth and stared at Bai Yijun as if it had a deep hatred for her.
Bai Yijun was stunned. She had seen this Little White Rabbit before. She knew that it was Ye Chen's pet. She did not expect that this seemingly harmless little thing would have such great power and be able to block her attack!
One had to know that although that sword aura was casually slashed out, it was still able to kill a high-level Demigod!
Seeing that Bai Yijun did not attack again, the Little White Rabbit glared at her. Then, it turned around clumsily. Its four little legs gathered strength, and it suddenly charged forward. It pounced on Ye Chen's neck and pushed the "Soulless" — Ye Chen — to the ground.
Soulless Ye Chen struggled a few times, but he could not break free. His entire body seemed to be controlled by an invisible force, and he could not move.
The Little White Rabbit lay on Ye Chen's chest. A pair of sharp fangs extended from its mouth and bit at Soulless's chest.
Its fangs were like sharp knives. They immediately pierced through Soulless Ye Chen's skin and created two bloody holes.
Strangely, no blood flowed out of these two bloody holes. Only faint black blood seeped out.
The Little White Rabbit's red eyes stared at these two small holes. It seemed to be serious. After a while, it slowly opened its mouth. From the roots of its sharp fangs, two golden dots of light slowly appeared. They dripped down the tip of the fangs and flowed into the two small holes.
Bai Yijun watched with all her attention. She was faintly anticipating something. Her expression was extremely nervous and careful.
After a while, Soulless Ye Chen, who had been madly struggling, suddenly froze. Then, his eyes closed, his neck tilted, and he stopped moving.
