Chapter 171: Dying and Sick

Jiang Jiu couldn't stop crying, and his guilt towards Fo Jiang grew heavier.

"Hold on a little longer, please, please..."

Jiang Jiu didn't know what to do and could only repeat it over and over again, praying that Fo Jiang would be safe and sound.

"Ahem."

Fo Jiang no longer had the strength to speak. He simply turned his head and gently rubbed the girl's face with his cheek, trying to wipe away Jiang Jiu's tears.

The man's long straight eyelashes brushed the corners of her eyes, causing an itchy feeling.

Jiang Jiu just felt like crying even more, and his tears flowed even harder.

"Don't... cry..."

Fo Jiang's voice was almost inaudible, but unfortunately he had no strength left in his body. If it were normal times, he would definitely find ways to coax the beloved in his arms.

Jiang Jiu didn't say anything, she couldn't control her tears.

When people are extremely helpless, they can only pray for a miracle to happen.

She has always been an atheist. Even if she traveled through time and space and entered the game, she would just treat it as a special journey and an opportunity to experience life again.

To Jiang Jiu, the gods of this world are just powerful humans, nothing special.

But at this moment, many names of gods flashed through her mind, including Buddha.

Just when Jiang Jiu was almost in despair, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head, and then a voice that made Jiang Jiu ecstatic appeared in his ears.

"Little thing, I finally found you."

However, at this time, she was almost exhausted due to excessive consumption of her spiritual energy. After hearing the reassuring voice, she left only one sentence and fainted.

"Save Fojiang."

...

Jiang Jiu, who was in a coma, seemed to have had a nightmare. Before he even opened his eyes, he sat up in shock as if he was dying.

In an instant, everyone's eyes in the room were focused on Jiang Jiu.

After Jiang Jiu sat up straight, he slowly opened his eyes, and what came into his sight was a completely unfamiliar, yet strangely familiar face.

Inexplicably, she didn't show any social anxiety when facing this person.

"Little girl, you finally woke up."

Seeing the familiar name and smiling expression, Jiang Jiu blurted out the name without thinking.

"Bai Ze!"

Jiang Jiu's brain gradually became able to think, and he looked carefully at Bai Ze in front of him.

Although immortals can choose the age group they transform into, Bai Ze, who has an old voice but a young appearance, makes Jiang Jiu feel uncomfortable.

This sense of incongruity, in modern terms, is that the voice does not fit the face at all.

"Where's Fojiang?"

Jiang Jiu's eyes were able to see again, and he immediately looked around the room. When he found that Fo Jiang was not there, his brows immediately frowned, and his tone unconsciously became much more hurried.

"Before he fainted, he asked me to save him. When he woke up, the first thing he did was to look for him. Am I a despicable person?"

Chi Li took two steps to Jiang Jiu, pinched Jiang Jiu's chin, half-closed his narrow fox eyes, and the dangerous aura lingering around him could be condensed into one sentence, which was 'Awake, time to hunt'.

"without....."

Jiang Jiu remembered that the voice she heard before she lost consciousness seemed to be Chi Li, and she felt guilty all of a sudden.

"He's not dead, but he's not much better."

Chi Li looked at Jiang Jiu's cute little expression, and the anger in his heart caused by his anxiety about Jiang Jiu's safety finally subsided a little. He raised one eyebrow and finally told Jiang Jiu about Fo Jiang's situation.

"?"

Jiang Jiu was about to ask more when the door was suddenly slammed open with great force. A dark shadow swooshed in front of Jiang Jiu, and the sound of crying instantly filled Jiang Jiu's mind.

"I'm so glad you're okay. I thought I'd never see you again!"

Xiao Nianzhong was in the form of a small coal ball, with two tear bubbles hanging in the corners of his eyes. His limp wings were clinging tightly to Jiang Jiu's chest, like a plush toy hanging on his body.

"Do you know how long I've been looking for you? I thought you were thrown into the chaos of the void and would definitely not survive."

Little Coal Ball burst into tears, no longer caring about his image as a demon god, nor about the other people in the room. He just wanted to quickly tell Jiang Jiu about his worries.

"Void Chaos?"

Jiang Jiu looked at Bai Ze with questioning eyes.

"Well, you were thrown into the chaotic void by my mortal enemy, Qiongqi. You can't use spiritual power there, and mortals who haven't become gods will be torn to pieces."

As Bai Ze spoke, his brows were tightly knitted together, as if he was upset about something.

"If Fojiang wasn't close enough to you and the Buddhist technique wasn't special, he would have tried his best to protect you in the turbulent void. You would be..."

Bai Ze didn't finish his words, but his meaning was clear.

"Master, I'm sorry, I should have stayed by your side!"

At this time, a small spot of light also jumped out from Bai Ze's body and quickly entered Jiang Jiu's body. His childish voice was crying, and it sounded even more pitiful than Xiao Nianzhong's.

"If you don't wake up, Xiao Lingying will die with me."

Bai Ze looked at the small spot of light, and a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes.

I don’t know to what extent Xiao Lingying acted like Bai Ze while Jiang Jiu was unconscious.

"I told you that you were alright."

Jiang Jiu looked at the little coal ball who was lying on her chest and had wet her clothes with tears, and reached out to touch him.

"Did you go looking for me too?"

When Xiao Nianzhong heard this, he raised his head with sobs. His furry face was filled with a pair of tearful eyes, which made him look very cute.

"Well, we split up to look for you, but that stinky fox didn't tell me that I had found you. I didn't come back until you woke up."

His tone was full of accusation and grievance, and he pointed at Chi Li with the tip of his wings, making it very clear that he was complaining.

"Oh? If it weren't for me, the little thing might have died?"

Chi Li sat there calmly, looking very composed.

Bai Ze quietly curled his lips beside him. This fox pretended to be indifferent and forgot that when Jiang Jiu fell into the crack of the turbulent flow in the void, it was who risked being seriously injured by Qiongqi's sneak attack and tore open the space to find Jiang Jiu.

When Jiang Jiu was brought back, he was covered in blood, not much different from the Buddhist saint.

"So, how is Fojiang?"

Jiang Jiu knew that Chi Li didn't like her asking now, but she was still worried.

"I won't die for now."

Bai Ze sighed and then said.

"His soul is severely damaged. If the Lord of the Ghost Realm takes action, there is still a possibility..."

Bai Ze didn't finish his words, but the look he gave Jiang Jiu was very clear.

The ginger wine made half of my body numb.

Does this mean that Yu Zimo should save Fo Jiang?

Let that super sickly girl come and save his love rival?

“…”

Jiang Jiu looked at Bai Ze and clearly felt that Bai Ze's eyes dodged for a moment. Obviously, there was no other way.

She was silent for a moment, and finally could only squeeze out four words from her throat with difficulty.

"I see."

No matter what, Fo Jiang was seriously injured and dying just to save her. If Yu Zimo really had any excessive demands, she would have no choice but to agree to them.
