In my final moments, all I saw was your resolute and indifferent face.
Ximen Qingtian was shocked to see the Seven Jade Stones of Eternity suddenly change direction.
A look of disbelief flashed quickly in Bei Ming Haotian's eyes.
The two instantly moved towards Nangong Ziyan's direction.
Baili Yuechan quickly gave Xueji a wink.
A cold smile played on Xue Lang's lips as he unleashed a black light towards Nangong Ziyan.
"No, Yan'er..."
Nangong Ruichen roared and flew over at top speed.
But it was too late; Nangong Ziyan's body suddenly fell backward.
Where the gravel slid down, dust was instantly swept into the air by the wind.
Nangong Ruichen vented all his anger on Xue Ji. He was determined to die and would not rest until he killed Xue Ji.
"Yan'er..."
"Yan'er..."
Everyone's eyes were filled with fear and dread, and they all rushed towards Nangong Ziyan's direction.
But Ximen Qingtian wouldn't let them pass. He quickly waved his hand, and the men in black behind him blocked their way. Not only that, but more men in black surged toward the top of the cliff from different places.
Tian Haoze immediately realized something was wrong; it seemed they had fallen into a trap.
"Yuze, this is bad! We've fallen into Wu Jifan's trap. He wants to wipe us all out."
As Tian Nanxing watched the men in black continuously surging forward, he had a vague feeling that something was wrong.
"Save Yan'er first, then we'll talk about it."
Bei Ming Haotian watched as her lithe body fell straight down, a suffocating pain rising in his heart. He desperately wanted to grab her, so desperately, so desperately… The Divine Dragon Whip quickly coiled around Nangong Ziyan’s body.
Upon seeing this, Baili Yuechan smiled smugly. The opportunity had arrived, so she quickly activated the female Gu.
Ximen Ruiyun watched her movements, closed his eyes briefly, and perhaps there was really no place here worth staying. He turned around and flew towards the bottom of the cliff. In the chaos of war, no one noticed his quiet departure.
Nangong Ziyan thought she was going to die. She closed her eyes and quietly waited for death, but suddenly her body was entangled by something. She opened her eyes and saw Beiming Haotian. Her eyes quickly filled with joy.
"Hao, Haotian, you still can't bear to see Yan'er die, can you?"
Bei Ming Haotian was about to answer yes, but his mouth involuntarily said, "You are wrong. It's not that I'm reluctant to let you die. I saved you to obtain the Seven Eternal Jade."
His cold tone, wicked yet playful, mercilessly struck Nangong Ziyan, leaving her face ashen.
She is now so fragile and vulnerable.
"hehe!"
Nangong Ziyan was in tears, letting out a few cold laughs. She felt like a fool, a complete fool who had lived two lives. "So, the Seven Jade of Eternity is more important than me, Haotian. Do you know how difficult it was for me to wait for you, yet how easily you hurt me? All the times we held hands, the happiness and sweetness, the romantic moments under the moon, the vows we made—in the end, they all vanished in your ruthlessness and deception. I have to say, my life is full of irony."
Nangong Ziyan's tears fell like pearls from a broken string, and the blood at the corner of her mouth stung Beiming Haotian's eyes. Those eyes, filled with unbearable pain and despair, terrified him to the extreme. His eyes instantly turned blood red, and the hand gripping the Divine Dragon Whip trembled slightly. Nangong Ziyan's body slumped down a little further.
Nangong Ziyan wondered what the chances were of Beiming Haotian saving her.
Nangong Ziyan gazed deeply into Beiming Haotian's suddenly reddened eyes. Her bright eyes were as blue as the ocean, so pure that not a single grain of sand could be mixed in. She smiled sadly and said, "Even so, my life has been filled with many beautiful memories because of you. No matter how much deception was involved, those were my happiest days. I cherished you with all my heart and loved you with all my heart. I, Nangong Ziyan, do not regret it, because it was my choice. I always thought that giving my heart would bring me a heart in return, but in the end, I was hurt terribly. Even so, I still have no regrets about falling in love with you."
Nangong Ziyan spoke each word with both pain and tenderness. Her heartache prevented her from saying anything more, and blood trickled from the corner of her lips. Her smile, though tinged with sadness, was heartbreaking. The excruciating pain made her tremble all over.
"Haotian, pull Yan'er up."
Nangong Ruichen shouted in desperation, using all his cultivation to shatter Xue Ji's body.
Seeing Xue Ji, whom she had carefully nurtured, die so tragically, Baili Yuechan's eyes turned red with rage. She used her own will to control the female Gu, causing Beiming Haotian to kill Nangong Ziyan.
"Ah!" A sudden pain in his head made Bei Minghaotian abruptly release his grip.
Feeling the strength in his hand suddenly lessen, Bei Ming Haotian's red eyes widened in horror. He looked down sharply, but his hand, which was about to reach out again, froze in mid-air. He saw the most beautiful, moving, and heartwarming smile in the world, and her reluctant eyes looked at him with despair.
“No…” Bei Ming Haotian shook his head in anguish. It wasn’t like that. He looked at his hands in disbelief. He had actually let go. He had actually let go. Fear and pain consumed his heart, leaving him helpless as he watched the figure grow smaller and smaller.
Nangong Ziyan forcefully threw the Seven Jade of Eternity towards Beiming Haotian. No matter how he treated her now, she could feel his sincerity during the days they spent together. He was her mother's only family in the world, and she would help him to the end as long as there was a chance to save him, so that her mother would not feel alone.
"Yan'er..."
