Task 6
The arm used to exchange power with the Wolf Totem can never be regenerated, nor can it be grafted onto someone else's arm, because for He Xian, this place is no longer included in his soul.
After personally severing He Xian's arm, the blood mist surrounding Pei Chanbai thickened. Ying Yungui was shocked: "Your remaining energy shouldn't be enough to break my spatial lock. What did you do?"
Pei Chanbai looked at the arm on the ground gradually disappearing like the small floating island just now, and turned his eyes away: "I don't have much energy left, so I can only use myself to create a new me." Blood was oozing out of every pore on his body, dyeing the pure white hair all brightly colored. His eyes turned red because of the blood, and it was even impossible to tell which part was the pupil.
He sacrificed his own body alive and was reborn as a new "Pei Yanbai".
Shi Youchen had no idea how to stop the bleeding, as it was beyond the reach of time. He frowned and said, "If this continues, your condition will be even more dangerous than his."
Pei Chanbai nodded and said, "I know. So before I lose consciousness, please wake him up. I have something to say to him." His voice was weak, but his determination remained undiminished.
Shi Youchen untied the time freeze on He Xian's body and helped him close the bloody hole as big as a bowl. Because his left arm was severed at the root, the remaining shoulder peak was uneven and slightly protruded outward.
Knowing that they needed some space to be alone, Shi Youchen took Ying Yungui away from this place.
When He Xian regained consciousness, the pain in his eyeballs was still lingering, causing tears to well up uncontrollably. Before he could even fully appreciate the changes in his body, he was startled by the sight of Pei Chanbai oozing blood.
"What's wrong? You..." He was about to reach out to hug his lover when he felt an empty space on the left side of his body.
His left arm did not rise.
He Xian's neck choked for a moment, and he tried to look down, but Pei Chanbai grabbed his face and kissed him. The kiss, thick with the scent of blood, didn't evoke any romantic thoughts, so He Xian didn't lose control of his emotions like usual. "Hmm...Xiaobai?"
Pei Chanbai pecked and kissed him again and again, finally breaking away reluctantly when he ran out of breath. But he still held He Xian's face, forehead against his, eyelashes touching. "I did it, don't blame them," he said softly.
He Xian was stunned for a moment, recalling the strange swelling feeling just now, and feeling the trembling eyelashes of Pei Chanbai who was so close to him. He suddenly laughed and said, "Our Xiaobai is such a kind-hearted child." Pei Chanbai's tears were particularly obvious above the layer of blood on the surface of his skin, with a salty and aggrieved smell.
"...Yeah." "So, don't blame them, blame me." "It was me... myself." Pei Chanbai was choked with sobs and couldn't finish the sentence.
But he had to admit it himself, it was him who caused He Xian to lose his left arm forever. He mustered up the courage to say "I did it myself", but he still couldn't say it because He Xian kissed him in return.
He Xian's kiss is very special. It is always tentative and flattering, and then quickly turns into a crazy demanding one.
When they separated again, their breathing became heavy, blending ambiguously in the air. But Pei Chanbai knew that his time to wake up was short, so he resisted the urge and hugged He Xian's broken body tightly, saying, "I may have to sleep for a while, you have to wait until I wake up."
He Xian buried his face in his sticky neck, not minding at all that his head was covered in blood: "I'll stay with you and not go anywhere, okay?"
"Okay." Pei Chanbai's voice was extremely weak, so weak that even He Xian almost didn't hear it even though it was right next to his ear.
"I promise, I'll be the first thing you see when you wake up. Go to sleep, Xiaobai."
Pei Chanbai's hands dropped, his entire body slumped downward. He Xian wrapped his one arm around him and knelt on the ground, ending the conversation with a light kiss, just as they had agreed. "Sweet dreams, good night."
When the pitch-black place suddenly became as bright as day, Ying Yungui knew that He Xian was calling them over in this way.
"I'm going to bring him back to us." He Xian said to the two people who had returned, "I'll give you the death certificate from the association." Ying Yungui frowned: "Does it have to be registered as dead? Not missing?"
He Xian said firmly: "Yes, only in this way can we completely cut off the thoughts of some people." Ying Yungui could of course hear who some people were referring to, and turned to look at Shi Youchen, asking for his opinion.
Shi Youchen nodded: "We don't know when Pei Chanbai will wake up, so it's better to leave everything to us and let He Xian watch over him."
Ying Yungui had no choice but to compromise and said, "Okay, I'll take care of it over there. You guys take him back quickly. On the way here with Will, I heard that he had already sent a message to the Feller clan. I guess one of their people will be here soon." He looked deeply at Shi Youchen, "Once everything is settled here, I'll go find you in the Mirage Abyss."
"Okay." Shi Youchen didn't know what he was thinking. He didn't notice his gaze, turned around and opened the space crack, then he and He Xian each supported Pei Chanbai and left.
"..." Ying Yungui was a little depressed, but he quickly adjusted himself. He looked around and gathered the fragments left by Will and piled them at his feet.
He waited in this desolate and empty place for nearly an hour before he heard any noticeable movement. The Fellers, led by Yue Ling, had finally arrived, and behind them was another group of people from the Belmond clan.
"Yoling! The search of Area 13 was approved by the decision-making group. Don't even think about shaking us off and doing something on your own!" Yoling Feller ignored the person who said this. Instead, he staggered to his knees and hurriedly crawled to the edge of the tiankeng, muttering, "Impossible! This is impossible! How could this happen?"
Ying Yungui coughed lightly and walked out from the side, instantly attracting the attention of both groups. "President? Why are you here?"
After seeing that it was Ying Yungui, Yue Ling Feiler quickly supported himself on the ground and stood up shakily: "Chairman Ying, this is the private territory of our Feiler clan. It is unacceptable for you to trespass without giving an explanation." His dissatisfaction with Ying Yungui was evident, which was obviously due to the influence of Will.
"Ha." Ying Yungui didn't bother to put on airs with him. He sneered, pointed at the pile of indistinguishable things with the tip of his shoe, and said, "I came to look for your Will clan leader, but he secretly ran to this place. When I arrived, look, it had already become like this."
The people of the Philer clan immediately started talking. Some doubted the meaning of Ying Yungui's words, some thought he was just talking nonsense, and only Yue Ling knew that it was really Will.
Because before Will left, he specifically asked him to bring someone to follow him to that place.
"I want to take this opportunity to completely justify the existence of the paradise." These are Will's exact words.
Yue Ling fell to the ground with a thud and was unable to get up. He opened his mouth wide but was unable to make any sound due to extreme shock and fear.
He knew that Will had not been killed by Ying Yungui, otherwise he would not have been able to wait for them to arrive. But this meant that someone other than the Feller family had found this place and even killed Will.
"Who... who did it!" Yue Ling was almost frantic. He didn't want anyone to see what he was afraid of, but Ying Yungui was determined to expose him. "It doesn't matter who did it now. What I want to know is, what was underneath it originally?"
Ying Yungui locked onto Yue Ling's evasive gaze and pressed him, "Why did Will refuse to grant the search rights here before?" Having said that, he didn't need to elaborate on the rest. The people of the Belmond clan also realized something and began to ask, "Did you hide Chief Floy's body here and then secretly destroy it?"
"No...no, we really don't know anything about the corpse!"
"Why is that?! What's so special about this place?! Why is this place the only one blocked off?!"
“…”
Ying Yungui signaled the Belmond clan members to hold back and said, "I do have a souvenir left by Chief Floy. You might want to take a look at it."
Yue Ling fell to the ground, staring blankly at Ying Yungui as he cut a tiny crack in front of him. A palm-sized golden scroll fell out of the space and landed in his hand.
"No... You want to frame our clan, you want to frame Chief Will!" He really thought so, so he forced himself to get up to stop them. However, when he turned around, his hand touched something extremely cold, and he instinctively withdrew his hand in severe pain.
Behind Yue Ling and in front of the rest of the people, a corpse appeared out of nowhere.
Ying Yungui stopped and threw the scroll in his hand to the group led by Belmond.
"Chief Floy once signed an anti-summoning contract with the summoned creature. If he dies but is in danger, the summoned creature will summon him to another dimension and will only send him back when the danger is over."
What suddenly appeared in full view of the crowd was the body of Floy Belmond.
The representatives of the decision-making group finally arrived. Ying Yungui glanced at the leader, Chief Ryan, and said, "Whether that is Floyd's personal letter, I'm sure our fellow tribesmen have their own way of verifying it." The Belmond tribe immediately surrounded it, shouting, "It's real," "It's Chief Floyd's contract mark."
Ying Yungui raised an eyebrow at Patriarch Ryan and said, "I received this token after returning from the Extreme South Experimental Base. Calculating the time, it should be that Floyd left it there before leaving for District 13, so that I could be a witness."
How could Chief Ryan not hear the underlying meaning of his words? He said, "The Philer clan violated the principles of super evolution first, deceived their superiors and subordinates, and put their own clan's interests above the interests of all mankind. They must be severely punished."
Yue Ling became anxious upon hearing this. He knew very well how deep the conflict between the Ryan and Feller clans was, and that the other party had always wanted to completely trample his clan underfoot. He hurriedly said, "As long as our Feller clan still possesses the power of this bloodline inheritance, no one has the right to dictate our actions!"
"Oh?" Ying Yungui looked at him coldly, "Are you so sure that this power will belong to your clan forever?"
Chief Ryan moved his fingertips and said, "Take all the members of the Feller clan back for a thorough inspection."
"Noah, how dare you!" Yue Ling shouted out the common name of the patriarch Ryan in a hurry.
“…”
A deathly silence fell all around them, and Chief Ryan's expression darkened. "Take them back," he commanded, his voice no longer soft.
After the crowd was ordered to disperse, Nuo'e hesitated to leave. Ying Yungui knew he had something to say. He took two steps toward the edge of the tiankeng and heard, "What do you think, President, should be done with the Feller clan?"
Ying Yungui: "As long as Patriarch Ryan can clearly distinguish the boundaries between super evolution and the association's decision-making group, I believe there will be a fair solution."
Noah rubbed his fingers together and said, "It seems that the president hasn't forgotten his original promise."
Ying Yungui smiled faintly: "Of course, I'm confident in leaving the super evolution to you. Time is running out, Chief Rui En...you must pay more attention to it."
"After all, this is the fate of all mankind."
