Yes, ever since Yan Baibai suddenly appeared, Bai Zhaoxi had been staring at her intently. First, he was in disbelief, then surprise, and finally, only panic remained...
"That is to say, Servant Chaoxi can also replace the Saint, right?" Someone in the crowd discovered the key point of the matter.
At this moment, the originally noisy crowd instantly quieted down.
"Servant Chaoxi is willing to sacrifice himself on behalf of the Saint Lady." Someone else said softly.
“He’s great.”
"We will always remember him."
"Just build a memorial statue for him. My family will pay for it."
"I have plenty of strength. I will go and help."
There is no shortage of powerful and influential families among the audience, as well as aspiring knights who are concerned about the fate of the sword.
"Everyone, having just listened to the elders' explanation, should be clear in your mind that each Saint chosen by the Prophecy Stone is meant to play a role at this very moment." Yan Baibai raised her voice, speaking each word to ensure that everyone present could hear her clearly.
"Gentlemen, since I became a Saint, I have enjoyed everyone's respect, a good education, a spacious house, a warm bed, and all the beautiful things in this world... And all of this is because I am willing to sacrifice myself at this moment. This is my responsibility as a Saint..."
Yan Baibai looked at Bai Chaoxi, who kept shaking his head at him with a pleading look on his face, and continued, "It's not anyone else's fault. He doesn't owe anyone anything."
At this time, even though everyone felt more reluctant to let the saint go than to an unfamiliar waiter, after hearing what the saint said, everyone finally said nothing. Even though they were reluctant, they still chose to respect the saint's choice.
However, before Yan Baibai finished her words, a bright and happy smile suddenly appeared on her face, and she continued loudly:
"To be honest, I, Bai Nianyue, deeply love Bai Chaoxi. I originally thought that I would abdicate when the time came, just like my predecessors. I had already decided that after abdication, I would marry my attendant Chaoxi, but I didn't expect..."
Yan Baibai smiled until tears started to flow. She wiped the tears from her face with her sleeves, and after the choking moment passed, she forced herself to smile.
"Gentlemen, I am not good at speaking, but he is the best man in the world. When I go west, I hope you will be more tolerant of him. I am here to thank you all."
After Yan Baibai finished speaking, he bowed to everyone. The people in the audience were stunned for a long time before they came back to their senses when Yan Baibai turned around. They hurriedly bowed to Yan Baibai for their belated greeting.
Perhaps it was because everyone knew in their hearts that this was their final salutation to Saint Nian Yue, and the ceremony lasted a long time. They sincerely hoped to convey their love and reluctance to part with their Saint Lady...
The four elders were also moved by Yan Baibai's words. Seeing Yan Baibai walking towards the prophecy stone, they tacitly did not let go of the rope in their hands, even though the person tied to the rope was struggling violently at this time.
"Baibai... don't go... stop, please, please Baibai..."
Bai Zhaoxi hated his throat, as if it was blocked by a ball of cotton. He used up all his strength to make a weak sound. How could his Bai Bai hear him like this...
His voice must have been too soft, so Bai Bai didn't hear it, so she didn't look up at her, so she didn't hear his plea, so she kept walking towards the prophecy stone...
Yan Baibai placed his hands on the prophecy stone. The prophecy stone seemed to sense the pure blood of the saint. The lines on the prophecy stone began to glow. The light flowed down along the prophecy stone, then spread to the entire altar, and then reached the tall pillar where the four elders stood.
The ancient formation was activated, and the black mist on the prophecy stone seemed to be restrained and began to quickly penetrate into Yan Baibai's hands. In an instant, Yan Baibai's face turned pale.
When the system saw this scene, it immediately used the "shield pain" skill that it had been reluctant to use before. Although it was only a basic skill, it still reduced the pain to a level that Yan Baibai could bear.
Only Bai Chaoxi and Elder Xi, who had inhaled the black fog, knew how painful the process of absorbing the black fog was. When Bai Chaoxi thought of the pain Yan Baibai was enduring, he struggled even harder.
Upon seeing this, the system immediately bought a pair of "God's Scissors" in the mall. After the black fog had almost entered Yan Baibai's body, it cut the light ropes of the four elders.
After regaining his freedom, Bai Chaoxi relied on his bloodline that was identical to that of the saint and the protection of the ancient formation on the altar to easily avoid capture by the four elders and soon came to Yan Baibai's side beside the prophecy stone.
"Baibai, how are you?"
Bai Zhaoxi hugged Yan Baibai from behind with trembling hands, then covered her hands with his own and spoke with difficulty: "Let me absorb the black mist, you go back, you go back and continue to be your Saint Lady, I beg you, Baibai."
"Chaoxi, don't be afraid, please don't be afraid."
Yan Baibai tried her best to steady her voice and soothed him with her most gentle voice: "Chaoxi, I read the message that the white bird brought. I'm heartbroken. I really do feel sorry for you. Our lives are very different. I love you very much. Please live a good life with my love, okay..."
Yan Baibai's thoughts seemed to have lost clarity, and his speech became illogical, as if he just spoke whatever came to his mind: "We haven't bought a house of our own yet. My previous small yard seemed too small to accommodate us and our bunch of children..."
