Chapter 550 The Last Meeting
Jiang Ci saw that a whole day had passed.
She finally stopped, and the golden runes floating around her gradually faded and disappeared.
Jiang Ci sat down on the ground, feeling relieved.
Jiuli Zhenjun and Qingfeng hurried forward to help her and found that her face was extremely pale.
"What's wrong? What did you see?"
Jiang Ci's eyes were a little red, and he shook his head unwilling to say it clearly.
Jiuli Zhenjun clapped his hands and said, "It's over, it's over. This is definitely the end of the world."
Qing Feng was stunned: "Is it really destroyed... The earthly immortals and I just became the patron saints of China. We haven't even warmed up to the position of patron saint yet, and it's all over?"
Jiang Ci sighed: "It's none of your business. It's me... I made the same mistake again."
Jiuli Zhenjun asked in surprise: "You are repeating the same mistake? Are you going to give up something, China? Or the Middle Thousand Worlds?"
Jiang Ci didn't say anything, but looked into the distance with sad eyes.
Qing Feng asked: "What about the blood moon? Have you calculated the time when the blood moon will appear?"
"Tomorrow night."
The two looked at each other, their expressions extremely solemn.
Jiuli Zhenjun said: "Xiaoci, just tell me what you need me to do."
"True Lord, you and the immortals should retreat."
When these words were spoken, Jiuli Zhenjun and Qingfeng were both shocked.
"Retreat?" Jiuli Zhenjun frowned and asked, "Why do we need to retreat?"
"We will be stationed here, and we will be able to detect any unusual movements immediately."
"Four Ghosts Mountain is very dangerous. How can we survive without someone guarding it?"
Qingfeng looked at Jiang Ci, who looked a little strange, and said what he thought: "Master Jiang asked you to withdraw, either because she saw that the evil Shura would not be unsealed in the future, or... the evil Shura would come out in full force in an unstoppable manner, and you, the True Lords, would not be able to stop them at all, and you might even lose your lives."
Jiuli Zhenjun asked: "Xiaoci, what did you see?"
Jiang Ci said bluntly: "The collapse of the Four Ghost Mountains will inevitably unleash the evil Shuras. True Lord, you shouldn't stay here. Go and save people."
"Save people?" Jiuli Zhenjun was even more surprised. "You mean... the evil Shura will sweep across the Central Thousand Worlds?"
Jiang Ci's expression was solemn: "Not only the Middle Thousand Worlds, but the whole world, China will also be affected."
"Qingfeng, you have to hurry back and activate the national defense formation before the blood moon arrives tomorrow night. As the guardian god, protect China."
Qing Feng was horrified: "When the blood moon comes, the evil Shura will be unsealed?"
Jiang Ci nodded: "So, what we can do is to save as many people as possible, the more the better."
Jiuli Zhenjun understood, and turned around to order the immortals to retreat from the Four Ghosts Mountain. He also announced that a catastrophe was coming to the Middle Thousand Worlds and asked everyone to be prepared.
After everyone left, only Jiang Ci was left standing there quietly.
"It turns out that everything is destined..."
The eerie Four Ghost Mountains made ghostly whimpering sounds.
Jiang Ci was unmoved, and just said softly: "Why don't you show up when you are here?"
"I'm afraid you'll nag me." The figure of Hades walked out of the darkness.
Seeing her almost transparent soul, Hades' eyes tightened and he said distressedly: "Aci, you..."
His throat was choked with sobs and he couldn't utter a word. He rushed over and hugged her.
Jiang Ci noticed that his shoulders were trembling, as if he was crying, crying for her.
"You are the Lord of the Underworld, Hades. You are used to seeing the separation of life and death. Why are you still crying?"
"Isn't it embarrassing?"
Hades hugged her tightly and said, "I shouldn't have listened to you and returned to the underworld. I don't care about the punishment from heaven or the order of heaven and earth!"
"I knew you would be hurt, but I didn't expect you to be hurt so badly."
"Ah Ci, you only have a wisp of soul left!"
"Come with me. I will use the power of the netherworld to nourish a strand of your soul until you have a complete set of three souls and seven spirits."
Hades said as he let go of her and held her hand tightly with his large palm.
Her hands were icy and cold, thinner than ordinary ghosts, and so faint that they were almost invisible.
Hades' eyes turned red. He grabbed her with one hand and waved his other hand in the air, splitting the Yin-Yang Road.
Jiang Ci refused to leave and stood there stubbornly.
"Ah Ci!"
"If you don't come with me, you will really die, and you will never be resurrected!" Hades was heartbroken.
Jiang Ci smiled lightly: "Why should I, Jiang Ci, fear life or death?"
"But……"
"Ming, I know you are worried about me." Jiang Ci said calmly: "This is my own choice. To be honest, I have lived for thousands of years and have experienced everything. I have no regrets in this life."
"If there is one, it is Xuanyuan Junze."
"Ming, I still have things to finish, I can't go back with you."
"Even if I go back with you, this strand of soul won't last long. Don't waste your strength. I know that in order to nourish my three souls and seven spirits, I have to empty you."
Pluto turned his head away, his hands clenched into fists, his knuckles turning white.
His nails dug deep into his palms.
Even if you try to use physical pain to distract from the unbearable heartache in your heart, it will be of no avail.
My heart felt like it was being cut by a knife, inch by inch, causing it to bleed.
When Jiang Ci saw his appearance, her eyes dimmed slightly and she gently held his hand.
"Ming, thank you for accompanying me for thousands of years. It is worth it to have a close friend like you in my life."
Hades still refused to look at her, his voice was particularly hoarse: "What... do I need to do for you?"
Jiang Ci joked, "Then you have to give me a grand funeral! I want a coffin made of golden nanmu wood..."
Hades laughed angrily: "Your body has been annihilated into ashes, do you still need a coffin?"
Jiang Ci blinked and said, "You can build a cenotaph for him."
"Okay, I was just kidding." She said seriously, "After the catastrophe, both the Yin and Yang worlds will be very busy, and the busiest one should be your underworld."
"There will be countless dead souls reporting down, and you'll be busy for a while."
Hades was a little angry: "I was talking about what other wishes you want me to fulfill, don't keep mentioning me!"
Jiang Ci thought about it and said, "I have a wish, yes."
"Add a little more life to my disciples..."
Hades said angrily: "Okay, okay, after all, you only have your relatives and friends, what about you?"
"Ah Ci! Don't you need anything?"
Jiang Ci smiled suddenly: "I am already dead, what else do I need? My only wish is that you can be well, safe and happy, that's enough."
Pluto: “…”
"The blood moon will descend tomorrow night, and there will be countless casualties in the mortal world. Ming, you should go back and make all preparations for the response."
Hearing that she was trying to drive him away, Hades felt angry and reluctant.
"At this time, you still won't let me stay with you."
"Ah Ci, you knew that this might be the last time we met, and you..."
