"Wife... you goddamn..." Yu Longting cursed, yet he sighed, "You're too clever, I just knew you love me so much that you'd choose to go to the pole."
"Yeah, the pole is deadly cold, it can freeze you solid and keep a faint heartbeat and breath to fool me... But who would have expected Yun Hao, this honest fool, to show up?" I sneered aloud, "Now, how much longer can you cling to life?"
Although he was right in front of me, he seemed like sand slipping through my fingers, the tighter I grasped, the faster I lost him.
I was going to lose him after all, he was sacrificing himself so that I could live.
But I, I couldn't accept that grace.
He was the pillar I lived for, my entire life.
He was the piece missing in my soul.
"For a long time, I can live for a long time, Wanwan, I'm not dead, all because of you."
Yu Longting stroked my hair, over and over again, his voice carried a hint of charm technique, "I was pulled back by your spiritual power, you gave me so much spiritual power, did you leave any for yourself?"
"Lying again? In your eyes, am I just a simple-minded amoeba?" I laughed helplessly as I leaned against Yu Longting, resisting with my remaining spiritual power the way he was combing through the Qi Sea in me.
Why can't the Su Family ever bring Yu Longting any luck?
It's always misfortune that follows him, I just want him to live, to properly be his Snake Lord...
But my father was the beginning of his misfortune, and I am the executioner who doomed him to plunge into the abyss, never to recover.
In the name of love, I killed him.
Yu Longting took several deep sighs, gently pushed me away, his lips met mine, "Wanwan, I never thought you, so compliant, would be such a stickler, always feeling that I'm deceiving you, so..."
On my heart, which was as still as death, a ripple surfaced, making me unconsciously listen closely.
"Relax your mind, enter my Qi Sea, let me show you my Life Lamp, see for yourself. The rightful source is noveⅼfire.net
Yu Longting must have secretly used the Charm Technique. My mind went blank, unaware of what was happening.
I was already following him, just like our last Dual Cultivation, my entire Primordial Spirit and all the spiritual power in my body's meridians were connected with his.
Driven by the obsession deep in my heart, my consciousness instantly reached deep into his soul.
I saw three brightly shining Life Lamps.
At that moment, I was stunned for a second, "Really, you're alright."
"Of course I'm alright, you soaked in the Cold Moon Spring and cured your Blood-weeping Syndrome, and elevated your realm by several levels?"
Yu Longting pinched my ear, a bit angry yet helpless, "The Cold Moon Spring saved you and it saved me too, stop your wild thoughts. Because of all the spiritual power you gave me, all the Life Lamps have recovered."
"Whoo whoo whoo..." I've never felt so vulnerable and helpless in my life, clinging to Yu Longting as I burst into intense tears, crying until the world faded away.
I almost fainted in his arms, but because the two of us were in a state of Dual Cultivation, the spiritual power flowing into me kept me conscious, "How can you bear it? To leave me behind, to go off and die, and even want... to pretend to be missing... so that I would never find out... How can you be so detestable... how can you?"
Just thinking that I almost lost him by a hair's breadth, I couldn't bear the mental breakdown, unable to withstand such consequences.
Why did I have to meet him in the first place?
What was so compelling??
Was it worth it, to have known me just for over twenty years, to not only give up his life, but even his soul...?
This fear makes me feel like it would have been better if I had never met him at all.
