Chapter 423 I am the rising sun, born from the clouds

Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed, and the hope that had just surged in their hearts vanished in an instant.

Tie Xi: "No, Princess Ling, you are the mother of life, please save Xixi, I beg you!"

Tie Xi: "I'm willing to pay any price to save Xixi!"

Yan Jue: "Little Flower!"

Princess Ling: "Don't worry, as long as there's even a glimmer of hope, I won't give up!"

After saying that, Princess Ling waved her jade hand lightly, and a rainbow ribbon appeared, flying to Wen Qian's side and surrounding her body. Pink light flashed, and after a short while, Wen Qian's body finally stopped dissipating, but in a semi-transparent state.

Seeing this, everyone's expressions improved, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.

Ice Princess: "Sissi, how are you? Can you hear me?"

The Ice Princess gently took Wenxi's hand and called out softly.

With a slight tremor of her eyelashes, Wenxi opened her eyes and managed a weak smile.

Wenxi: "Abing, I feel like... I'm not doing so well..."

Tie Xi: "Sissi..."

Tie Xi: "Please don't go, don't leave me alone..."

Jin Litong: "If you die, I won't care whether this guy lives or dies!"

Water Prince: "Wenxi, is there anything else you'd like to say?"

Prince Shui could see that although Wen Qian's body had stopped dissipating, her primordial spirit was still dissipating. It was very likely that even Princess Ling would not be able to save Wen Qian's life. He felt a sudden sadness in his heart.

Prince Shui's eyes darkened, and his thin lips pressed into a straight line.

Wenxi: "I don't want to die..."

Wenxi: "I still have so many things to do..."

Wenxi: "I..."

Seeing the tears glistening in Tie Xi's eyes, Wen Qian's own eyes reddened. In the end, she swallowed her words, and a single crystal tear slid down, landing on the ice lotus. Wen Qian turned her head and looked up at the sky.

Wenxi: "If there's a next life, I want to be far away from all of you."

Wenxi: "I want a life of my own. I want to live a peaceful and smooth life. I never want to meet you again, and I never want to be involved in your struggles again..."

Wenxi: "I still want to..."

As she spoke, a strong, sweet, and metallic taste suddenly welled up in her throat, causing Wenxi to cough loudly. Blood dripped down her chin, and everyone's hearts tightened. They struggled to hold back their tears and listened to Wenxi continue.

Wenxi: "I still want to..."

Wenxi turned to look at Tiexi, then at Jin Litong, and then her body began to dissipate again. Even Princess Ling couldn't stop it. Tiexi and Jin Litong's pupils flickered, and each of them grabbed one of Wenxi's hands, their bodies trembling.

Others wanted to, but ultimately no one did.

Because in the relationship between Wen Qian, Tie Xi, and Jin Litong, they are all just outsiders. Yes, just outsiders.

Jin Litong: "Wen Qian, in my entire life, I've never begged anyone. Now, I beg you, don't die, stay here, okay?"

Tie Xi: "Xixi, I don't want you to die..."

I also want to…

Wenxi tried to speak, but her eyelids grew heavier and heavier, and her body became lighter and lighter. In the end, she lost all sensation, closed her eyes, and vanished into the air like a gentle breeze in front of everyone.

The moment Wen Qian died, the entire human world was plunged into darkness, as if the world itself was mourning her. The flames formed from the fragments of the Heavenly Seal burned endlessly, and this unprecedented catastrophe experienced by humanity was recorded in history.

The flames burned for more than five years. During this time, not a single drop of rain fell on the human world. The world was parched, and humanity struggled to move forward. Just when they were about to give up and rebuild their home, they all invariably remembered the girl who had perished five years ago while protecting them.

It should have been dawn, but no sunlight shone down. The whole world was shrouded in darkness, devoid of hope and light. Rolling black clouds filled the entire sky, bringing endless despair.

On such a day, in a dilapidated clinic, the woman's painful screams echoed from the delivery room, driving the man outside to the brink of a mental breakdown several times. He knelt on the ground, tears streaming down his face, muttering to himself.

Extra: Man: "God, please, let my wife give birth to our child safely, I beg you!"

After saying this, the man began to kowtow, the sound of which was very heavy. Soon, there was a patch of blood on the man's forehead. Just then, the woman's voice in the delivery room gradually weakened, and with a clatter, the door was opened, and the cry of a baby rang out.

Suddenly, the sky outside the window cleared, and sunlight shone through the clouds, falling on the baby's wailing face. Then, with a deafening roar, a torrential downpour began. The whole world was stunned, and a wave of joy at surviving such a disaster washed over everyone!

The flames that had burned for five years were extinguished by the heavy rain. The man, with tears in his eyes, took the baby from the nurse, then carried the child into the delivery room and looked at his wife, who was still weak after giving birth.

He told her—

"Honey, thank you for your hard work. I've come up with a name for this child."

Her name is…

"The rising sun!"

I am the rising sun, emerging from the clouds...!

—THE END—
