"Yan'er, don't give the Seven Eternal Jade to them. Do you want your second brother to become a sinner for all eternity? Once they get their hands on the Seven Eternal Jade, they will use the power of eternity to unify the world. That would be too terrifying. Your second brother would rather die than bear the burden of the lives of all the people in the world."
Nangong Jingqi stared intently at his sister. What did it matter if he died alone? He didn't want to implicate his family. Once the Seven Jade of Eternity fell into his hands, he would become an executioner.
"Second brother, Yan'er doesn't care about the world's suffering. Yan'er's heart is small, and it can only hold her own family."
Nangong Ziyan walked to Nangong Jingqi's side, took out two bottles of medicine, one a healing potion and the other a potion to restore physical strength, and quickly gave them to Nangong Jingqi to drink.
"Second brother, this medicine will restore your strength soon. I'm sorry, second brother, it's Yan'er who has dragged you into this."
Nangong Ziyan looked apologetic. Her second brother had spent the whole night in this bitterly cold place, and it was all her fault.
"Yan'er...!"
"Nangong Ziyan, hand over the Seven Eternal Jade at once, and don't try any tricks on me."
Ximen Qingtian wanted to get the Seven Eternal Jade as soon as possible. He was afraid that if he waited too long, something unexpected might happen. Tian Nanxing and the Nangong family should have already heard the news and rushed over.
"Here you go." Nangong Ziyan quickly threw the Seven Jade Stones of Eternity to Ximen Qingtian.
"No, Yan'er..."
Nangong Jingqi was frantic, but tied to the large rock, he was powerless to stop it.
Ignoring everything else, Nangong Ziyan quickly untied Nangong Jingqi's ropes while whispering in his ear, "Second Brother, don't worry. The Seven Eternal Jade has already formed a contract with Yan'er. Even if they possess the Seven Eternal Jade, they can't unleash its true power. Yan'er can summon them back at any time."
Upon hearing this, Nangong Jingqi breathed a sigh of relief. Thank goodness, otherwise he would have lived with guilt for the rest of his life.
"Hahaha...!" Looking at the Seven Ancient Jade Beads in his hand, Ximen Qingtian laughed wildly. "It really came so easily. To gain the world, I actually need to rely on such a string of beads..."
"Oh dear! It's too late. That silly girl has already given the Seven Eternal Jade to Ximen Qingtian."
As soon as Tian Nanxing and Tian Haoze, the Nangong family landed, they heard Ximen Qingtian's words.
Bei Ming Haotian and Baili Yuechan also arrived later.
Upon seeing Bei Ming Haotian, Nangong Ziyan stared painfully at the two intimate figures, her heart aching again. He had actually brought Baili Yuechan with him. She loved him too deeply, and tears welled up in her eyes again.
Everything in the past was a lie; Haotian never loved her at all. But the memories in her mind were a road with no return. Even the most steadfast and unwavering love is ultimately nothing more than a fleeting reality.
Bei Ming Haotian looked at Nangong Ziyan quietly. Her eyes were filled with pain. Was that pain really caused to her by him...?
Baili Yuechan smiled smugly at Nangong Ziyan. Seeing her in pain made her incredibly happy. She linked her arm with Beiming Haotian's, and the two leaned even closer. Most importantly, Beiming Haotian didn't refuse, and let Baili Yuechan hold his arm like that.
Seeing Baili Yuechan's actions, a flash of pain crossed Ximen Ruiyun's eyes. He lowered his gaze, not daring to look at anyone. So, Baili Yuechan had never truly loved him. Her closeness with him was merely a means to use him. His heart ached as if it were being torn apart. In this world, he felt no attachment whatsoever. His respected father had used him, and the woman he loved had also used him. His heart had never ached as much as it did now. Perhaps he really should wander the world; that way, his heart might not ache so much…
When Nangong Ruichen saw Xue Ji, his eyes burned with rage. He wanted to go and kill Xue Ji, but was stopped by Sima Jiaorong.
"Yan'er, Qi'er, are you alright!"
"Mother, don't worry, Yan'er and Second Brother are both fine."
Nangong Ziyan replied that they must have seen the letter on the bronze mirror. It was all her fault for being too hasty and not taking the note down, which put her parents and brothers in danger with her.
"Hmph! Since you've all come, then let's all go to our deaths!"
Ximen Qingtian was extremely arrogant at this moment. With the Seven Eternal Jade in hand, he would be invincible.
Looking at the Seven Eternal Jade in Ximen Qingtian's hand, Baili Yuechan couldn't help but wonder if her master's trick of using someone else to do her dirty work. Ximen Qingtian also wanted to seize the world.
"Ximen Qingtian, don't be so arrogant. How long can you hold onto the world after gaining it through such means? Aren't you afraid of being ridiculed by the world for using such despicable methods?"
Nangong Yuze glared angrily at Ximen Qingtian, never expecting him to resort to such despicable means to obtain the Seven Eternal Jades.
"Hmph! All I care about is the result; the process is irrelevant."
Ximen Qingtian flicked his sleeves forcefully. Plans can't keep up with changes, and now is the time for him, Ximen Qingtian, to dominate the world.
"Haotian, the Seven Eternal Jade must not fall into Ximen Qingtian's hands, otherwise he will use the power of the Seven Eternal Jade to deal with the Netherworld Continent. Now you are his strongest opponent. Moreover, only the Seven Eternal Jade can revive Haotian's parents."
Baili Yuechan whispered a strong medicine into Beiming Haotian's ear. She didn't know her master's purpose in sending Ximen Qingtian to take action, but she wanted Haotian to seize the Seven Eternal Jade in order to make Nangong Ziyan suffer even more. At this moment, the resurrection of his parents was more important than anything else for Nangong Ziyan.
Bei Ming Haotian frowned. Even without Baili Yuechan saying it, he understood the pros and cons. To obtain the whole world, he, Bei Ming Haotian, had to agree. Moreover, the Seven Jade of Eternity could save his parents, so how could he let Ximen Qingtian take it away?
