My mind races
ed over and with a raspy voice. He leaned on a black, broken wooden staff in his hand.Isn't that the old man we just saw!His voice and build hadn't changed much, but his face...He looked as if he had...“Little Lady, this is the Yin-Yang Profound Sea. It’s the celestial being’s interdimensional passage here, leading directly to any location in the Netherworld. The nine-headed lion can open the gates of the Nine Hells, but you must hold onto the chains flying out from inside the gate, no matter what! Don't let go!” the little boy warned me anxiously.
But this is the sea! I have no confidence at all!
"What would happen if you… accidentally let go"
The little boy stared at me nervously, "You must not let go! The Yin-Yang Nether Sea corresponds to the Underworld. The Underworld is vast and boundless. If you let go and drift to an unknown place, where could we possibly find you"
Oh my gosh, he's making me even more scared now!
"Little Madam, what's wrong with you"
I asked stiffly, "Are there other ways I... I'm afraid of water..."
I can't swim, and I became especially afraid of water after being choked last time.
The thought of jumping into the sea already puts immense psychological pressure on me, and this is no ordinary sea!
The task of jumping into the sea is very important, I'm really afraid I'll mess it up.
"Don't be afraid, it's nothing. Think of jumping down as going to the underworld, which is like returning to your husband's family! What are you afraid of"
You....
The image of a child speaking such mature words was oddly incongruous.
“I’ve chanted the spell. When you hear the roar of the nine-headed lion, you’ll see the sea here part. Then jump down... Don’t worry, don’t worry, you have the Emperor’s blood curse, right Even if something happens, you’ll still be the little lady in twenty years. What’s there to be afraid of”
I helplessly stared at him: "Little boy, you speak so maturely. Who did you learn that from And how do you know about my blood curse"
The little boy pouted: "Who doesn't know Both the celestial and underworld realms know that the Emperor has a beloved, the treasure is amazing. It's just that the empress is young and a mortal, so the Emperor is afraid you will get lost in reincarnation, so he gave you an immortal blood oath... simply the first infatuated immortal deity! Who doesn't know"
He mumbled, making my cheeks flush but I couldn't help but twitch the corner of my lips.
Just jump then, the worst that could happen is I get called a boiled chicken. But…
“Could I be drowned” I certainly don’t want to jump down and see Jiang Qiyun, only to leave the two little dumplings behind.
"Should...wouldn't that be right I've never seen anyone like you jump here! Celestial beings walk this path, their clothes wouldn't even get wet." The little boy said with puffed cheeks.
Okay, okay, close your eyes and jump.
Look, I'm ready. The little boy sat cross-legged on the cliff edge, muttering a spell.
Suddenly, a ferocious roar like thunder boomed down from the clouds.
The sea below boiled, splitting open a fissure.
"Hurry up!" the little boy urged me.
I took a leap, the white waves looked like clouds in the sky. Jumping like this, wouldn't I fall from the sky
The moment I entered the water, the surging sea suddenly closed in, engulfing me!
This, this is real water...
I gasped, my instinct to survive kicking in as I frantically flailed. This wasn't just water! It was freezing cold!
My wrist was suddenly wrapped by something cold and hard. Remembering what the little boy said, I immediately clutched the chain tightly!
A tremendous force dragged me violently into the abyss.
Both times I went to the underworld, I experienced feelings like death.
This feeling is indescribable.
There's only one thought in my mind: don't want to die.
I know there are people who can be unwavering in their beliefs and fearless in protecting their loved ones, even at the cost of their lives.
But when it really comes down to it, there's still a little shiver of apprehension in my heart.
The pain of being choked by water was unbearable. I grabbed the chain with one hand and choked my own neck with the other, trying desperately to grit my teeth.
Qiyun ah Qiyun, you say why am I so indecisive, stubborn and loves to cry
Because the moment you turn around, I'll give it my all, even stepping over death to reach you.
Pain, tears, a chaotic and fearful mind. I don't know how long it lasted.
At the moment I suddenly felt the water around me disappear, I coughed violently. My body was falling at an incredible speed. The iron chains that had bound my arms vanished, and all around...
I rubbed my eyes, and the surroundings were pitch black!
"Ah!!!" My body suddenly became weightless, falling rapidly backward. Below, below...
The dark mountain ranges connect heaven and earth, and in the mountain pass stands a black city quietly.
The towering walls and imposing gatehouses exuded an aura of solemnity.
I'm falling!
If you don't get drowned, you'll be smashed to death! Falling from such a height, the air current will tear at your body like a whip. Landing on the city wall would surely turn you into mush!
“Rise, Cloud—!!”
I covered my face, unable to look. It was about to smash into the roof of the tallest building on the city gate —
The downward momentum abruptly stopped. I opened my eyes to see several small lotus flowers floating in the air, gently rotating and supporting my weight.
Xiao Lianhua paused slightly, leaving me suspended in mid-air.
After being submerged in water and falling, my head hasn't fully recovered, and my reaction has become somewhat dazed.
Even seeing the man I'd been longing for reach out his hands to me, I was frozen and couldn't react at all.
My ribs were gripped by his hands, pressing me against the monstrous back of the creature on the roof's eaves —
"...I knew you'd cry." His voice was as clear and cold as ever, even with a hint of mockery.
"You—" How are you not acting like anything's wrong!
He didn't wait for me to speak, he forcefully gripped the back of my neck and forced me to look up.
Her icy lips, so familiar they could not be more so.
"Uh... you! I, uh... I'm... going crazy... Uh... you, you..."
A nameless fire roared into life.
I'm about to go crazy, but he doesn't look like he's in danger! So why am I freaking out!
I can't struggle, I never could.
He controlled my body, and no matter how angry I was, I could only endure it.
When he finally relaxed his hold on me, just a little. I glared at him, the best way I could manage to express my anger.
"...I'm going insane." His icy tongue slid down my neck, a soothing touch against my rising panic.
"Days have passed, Mu Xiaqiao I didn't appear, and you didn't come looking for me To recite the Divine Lord's teachings... How long did it take you to realize this"ns, the left wing is filled with suspense and fear, while the right wing is adorned with beauty and lust. What kind of demons and spirits lurk in the center to tempt peopleOrdinary people may not have...
