The shadow's aura veil missed its target.
But he still brushed past Jiang Qingwan's shoulder.
The hem of his clothes was instantly stained red with blood.
But there was an indescribable ease on her face.
She stood up and stood outside the demon-subduing formation.
Her long hair fluttered slightly, and her smile was absolutely beautiful, like that of a fairy.
"Su Weichuan, you've lost."
Within the Demon-Subduing Formation, the black pillar connecting heaven and earth is crumbling.
The dark figures climbing above disappeared one by one, howling as they went.
The woman's spirit, which had already floated onto the ice coffin, was pulled back onto the black pillar.
It was ferocious, resentful, and roaring.
Su Weichuan panicked.
He chased after the dark figure like a madman.
"No, come back, come back!"
But the dark figure still vanished completely from his sight.
The figure that had just attacked Jiang Qingwan stood there, stunned, seemingly out of control.
Su Weichuan had no time to care.
He heard the sound of the ice coffin cracking.
"No, no!"
He screamed and lunged back at the ice coffin.
Without the protection of the ice coffin.
The woman inside the coffin began to age rapidly.
Her skin, once fair and jade-like, was now visibly withered and shriveled.
Su Weichuan stretched out his hands in terror, wanting to stop it, but he was powerless to do so.
He watched helplessly as his beloved, whom he had guarded for more than ten years, turned into a skeleton, turned to dust, and was blown away by the wind. Only half of the jade ring remained, lying quietly in the cracked, cold jade stone.
Jiang Qingwan suddenly froze.
That jade ring...
She strode forward, and the demon-subduing formation instantly shattered.
She was so focused on getting a clear look at the jade ring that she didn't notice that the moment the shadow disappeared from the demon-subduing formation, a golden umbrella suddenly appeared above her head.
It disappeared completely the next moment.
In front of the ice coffin,
Su Weichuan slumped to the ground, clutching half a jade ring in his hand.
In a few breaths,
His hair had turned gray.
He mumbled blankly, having lost all will to live.
"Susu, Susu..."
Jiang Qingwan clearly saw the broken edge of the jade ring.
The broken piece complements the one she's wearing around her neck.
Behind him, the talismans inscribed by the Rootless Water were still shimmering with a faint golden light.
Something in my memory is surging up wildly.
The scene was chaotic, filled with laughter and cheers, as well as bloodshed and devastation.
She heard someone's shrill, angry roar.
"Princess, run!"
Jiang Qingwan felt a sharp pain in her chest.
She lowered her head, staring intently at the broken jade ring.
His voice was hoarse.
"Susu...who is she?"
Su Weichuan could no longer hear any sound.
He sat slumped, stroking the broken jade ring in his hand again and again.
The most precious thing.
It's as if it's the last treasure in the world.
Jiang Qingwan suddenly yanked off the jade ring around her neck; the rope cut her skin, causing a stinging and painful sensation.
She squatted down and handed over the half of the jade ring she was holding.
"Su Weichuan, tell me, who is Susu, and what does this jade ring represent?"
She gripped the rope, holding half of a jade ring in front of Su Weichuan's eyes.
Su Weichuan's cloudy eyes slowly regained their clarity.
After seeing the jade ring in Jiang Qingwan's hand, he frantically snatched it away.
Put your hands together.
The jade ring is perfectly connected.
He stared wide-eyed and tried again and again.
While trying it out, she looked up and smiled at Jiang Qingwan.
There was a part of Jiang Qingwan's heart that was constantly collapsing.
She seemed to understand something, yet she also seemed not to understand it at all.
As Su Weichuan laughed, he suddenly grabbed her shoulder.
I was both excited and pleasantly surprised.
"It's you. You're not dead."
"Yes, it must be. You two look so alike! I should have recognized you sooner! I should have recognized you sooner!"
The laughter stopped abruptly, and he suddenly became angry.
He glared at them with a ferocious expression.
"Why did you harm her? Why did you help the Great Zhou ruin the resurrection ceremony I've been waiting for all these years? You will regret it, you will definitely regret it."
Jiang Qingwan's shoulders were gripped so tightly by him that they almost fell apart.
But she couldn't feel any pain.
The gods seemed to have been removed.
Her mind was blank, yet countless voices and figures were frantically appearing in her head.
The sun pierced the darkness and returned to the world.
All the wailing and howling disappeared.
Everything seemed to have finally turned around and returned to the right path.
Wang Hao led his men up to the Jade Terrace, and upon seeing this scene, they all raised their swords.
"Release the princess!"
Just as tensions were about to rise, shouts of battle suddenly rang out in the distance.
Zheng Qing, who was in charge of covering the rear, arrived in a panic with a small group of men.
They were all covered in blood, and one soldier even had an arrow stuck in his shoulder.
The group rushed to the foot of the Jade Terrace, but did not see what was happening on the terrace.
Anxious and impatient, he leaned on his long sword and shouted, "Wang Hao, Mo Shaoqing has led his troops to storm the palace! Quickly gather your men and come with me to fight!"
Wang Hao moved to the edge, holding the knife.
Looking down, "The Second Prince led troops to storm the palace? Aren't those reinforcements? What battle are we going to fight? Send word that Su Weichuan, that old scoundrel, is surrounded, but he's taken him hostage..."
He didn't finish his sentence.
Then they heard warhorses galloping wildly, and arrows flying recklessly toward them.
The concubines were terrified and screamed in panic.
Zheng Qing led his men to hold off the enemy on the outside, but they had just experienced a major battle, and this sneak attack resulted in the loss of a hundred men in just a few breaths.
Wang Hao stamped his feet in frustration.
"Has Mo Shaoqing gone mad? How can he just fire arrows like that?"
He turned around, wanting to save the person first.
But then she saw that Su Weichuan had already let go of Jiang Qingwan.
