Su Tingyun's complexion looks terrible. She has clearly taken the medicine, and the injuries on her body are improving at a rate visible to the naked eye. But her face is still pale, her lips are cracking, and her whole body is shaking. And Liu Feizhou has no idea why this is happening.
He could only hold Su Tingyun, and keep pouring spiritual energy into her body, "Granny, what's wrong with you?"
"Granny, my master is coming soon, hold on!"
...
Su Tingyun is sweating all over. One of her hands has been holding on to the Springwater Sword, but with the way her hands can’t stop shaking right now, the sword finally falls to the side, like an emerald green leaf falling to the ground, a clear spring water tumbling down.
She feels cold from head to toe, even her sweat is freezing. If one can say that she was fine before— though her injuries are serious, her ring has just been healing her— at this very moment, however, she feels like someone is strangling her by the throat, preventing her from opening her mouth. It’s as if a strong force is tearing her consciousness apart.
There is a tinkling of bells ringing in her ears. The sound is very soft, but it’s pounding right at her soul, causing her body to twitch and spasm, her breathing gets weaker and weaker.
The bells are getting louder and louder.
In the sky, a small, pure black bell appears on each of the four corners of the Nightmare Tapir Phoenix Feather Frame. The bells’ sound is low and strained, sporadic, as if the bells themselves are broken. But the emergence of that sound makes Su Tingyun panic even more.
It’s as if an irresistible force is reeling her in.
Not pulling her body, but her primordial spirit.
It feels like a large hand has taken hold of her scalp, and wants to yank her soul out of her body. Su Tingyun's eyes open wide, and she uses everything she has to clutch onto Liu Feizhou's arm with her fingers.
"What's going on with you?" Liu Feizhou's phoenix eyes are filled with scalding tears, and he is at a loss what to do now. He could only keep stuffing Pills into Su Tingyun's mouth.
Su Tingyun doesn’t know what’s going on with her either. Her hands dig into the meat on Liu Feizhou's arms, her nails tearing into the skin.
Her primordial spirit is breaking out little by little. Su Tingyun struggles desperately, but can only cry, "Big Bai. Don't burn me."
She’s originally a primordial spirit possessing a vessel, but it’s quite similar to a reincarnated takeover in Wei Yun’s case, in that she can stay in it for a long time without rejection. But when all is said, she is not the original soul of it. Although she doesn't know what’s happening, Su Tingyun still wants to go back.
If there’s nothing to anchor her, she will dissipate between heaven and earth.
Although she doesn’t know what awaits her, she still wants to come back. Because her family and friends are here, and there are definitely people waiting for her to come back.
On Wei Yun's body, the jade ring that she has been unable to take off becomes fainter and fainter, and finally disappears. The Springwater Sword that has fallen on the ground really looks like splashed water now, the light of the sun evaporates it completely, and it too disappears without a trace.
Su Tingyun’s hand that’s tightly holding on to Liu Feizhou slowly loosens. Her primordial spirit is fully gone from her body, as if she’s been sucked into a black hole. As soon as she enters this darkness, she feels the rush of evil winds around her, wailing like ghosts and howling like wolves. Countless voices are shouting, and her already weak soul cannot bear the assault anymore. Finally, she completely loses consciousness.
At the same moment, the Demon Venerable is lounging, collarbones peeking out from the wide open lapels. Something startles him a little, "The lingering souls of the deceased— there seems to be more than expected." He puts his thumb into the red ring and shakes the little bell again. Then, he raises his head a little, "Someone’s coming, let's go..."
The Nightmare-Eating Tapir produces a long cry, several balls of flames coming out as it stamps its foot, and it leaps away. The Phoenix Feather at the end of the carriage extends, leaving a magnificent arc in the air. In just an instant, the Nightmare Tapir Phoenix Feather Frame completely disappears from the sky.
In Jinxiu City, Liu Feizhou is stunned in place, he stays there like a stone sculpture.
That’s because Granny’s body is entirely without vitality, the primordial spirit has thoroughly disappeared. All throughout, Bai Chengyu has been focusing on guarding against the Demon Venerable in the sky, not daring to relax at all. It’s only after the carriage finally flies away that he slowly takes a deep breath. Lowering his head, he is also stunned on the spot.
Liu Feizhou is weeping. Such a prideful man is hugging a lifeless body, crying like his heart is breaking and his lungs are splitting. Although Su Tingyun said she doesn’t regret it, he still feels that it’s his fault, because he-, he killed Granny.
Bai Chengyu isn’t really that surprised. He crouches down and takes a look. Then he pats Liu Feizhou, "Hey, don't cry."
"What’s a grown man crying like that for? I'm going to cry if you keep crying." Bai Chengyu's voice is a little choked up. His hand pats the other again, and he says haltingly: "I’m telling you, Granny likes to do this prank a lot. Last time, I thought My Lord crushed her to death, her soul was completely gone. But actually not, ah! Granny can leave with her soul. She must have hidden herself, to hide from the Demon Venerable."
Liu Feizhou stiffens, then he turns his head to look at Bai Chengyun, letting go of Su Tingyun, "You say she’s hiding?"
Droplets still hang from his long eyelashes, but there’s already a fiercely pissed look on his face.
"Yeah, Granny also played dead last time, which scared me and my eldest brother." After speaking, Bai Chengyu looks around, "Granny, the demon is gone, stop hiding."
"Otherwise, I'll look for you, and bring out the soul lamp to find you." Bai Chengyu tries again.
However, no matter what he says, Su Tingyun doesn’t open her eyes.
Liu Feizhou's originally relaxed heart becomes heavy again. Impatience and unease rises in Bai Chengyu's voice. He grabs Su Tingyun's wrist and stares at the jade bracelet on her hand, saying, "Granny, I'm going to wipe your consciousness from this and find the soul lamp..."
Bai Chengyu's cultivation base is much higher than Su Tingyun's, so it wouldn’t be difficult for him to forcibly erase her Divine Sense if he wants to. At the moment, however, he just wants to scare Su Tingyun.
"Stop hiding, the bad guys are gone!"
"Granny, where have you gone..."
