"What's wrong with you?" The scene was so strange, but Ye Sheng seemed completely unsurprised. By the strange light from the fish tail, one could clearly see the deep heartache in his eyes.
Kneeling on both knees, Ye Sheng reached out and picked up Crescent Moon from the ground. His trembling fingers touched the corner of her mouth, and a sticky feeling instantly spread through him. The bloodstains at the corner of Crescent Moon's mouth and her deathly pale face were all presented to Ye Sheng's eyes.
"Blood!" In an instant, Ye Sheng felt as if his heart was being torn apart. He could naturally guess what had just happened.
"Don't be sad, this day will come eventually. I've already gained so much by being able to live with you for so many years," Yueya said, taking a deep breath and raising her arm to hold Ye Sheng's tearful face. "Our union was not allowed by the water tribe. I'm already very happy to have met you and lived in the human world for so many years."
"No! You promised me that we would stay together until we grow old. We still have a long life ahead of us, and we still have to look after our daughter..." At this point, Ye Sheng was already overwhelmed with grief and indignation, and he cried like a child.
"Ye Sheng, listen to me!" Upon hearing Ye Sheng mention his daughter, Yueya's eyes widened instantly. She interrupted him with a sharp shout, reaching out to pull Ye Sheng's head up while gritting her teeth and lifting her upper body to whisper in his ear, her voice barely audible, "For her, we are worth it..."
"Yes!" Lu Sheng nodded decisively and with difficulty, biting his lips so hard that a trace of blood appeared.
"Boom!" A bolt of lightning struck, followed by an even louder "whoosh!" sound of water behind him. Ye Sheng sensed something and turned around abruptly.
Five meters away, the Thousand Buddha was kneeling on both knees, supporting himself with his hands, and struggling to stand up. On his black robe, there were faintly shimmering scales.
Seeing Qianfo's current state, Ye Sheng seemed to recall the intense scene he hadn't witnessed earlier.
With a "crack!" sound, a figure flew through the rain, a beam of strange light descended from the sky, and a huge silver tail swept straight at Qianfo, who was holding iron chains.
With a loud "bang!", the iron chain struck the fish's tail solidly, sending the figure of the Thousand Buddhas flying into the air...
And the fishtail itself narrowly escaped this fatal blow.
It was a crescent moon! It had shielded him from a calamity, but both it and the demon opposite it fell to the ground.
"You, you all!" Thousand Buddha had already gotten up from the ground. "Splash, splash, splash!" Water droplets dripped from his black robe. He staggered toward Crescent Moon, the iron chains on his hands nowhere to be seen...
Standing in the rain, Thousand Buddha reached out and pushed aside the battered, swaying fishtail, then grabbed Ye Sheng, who was crouching beside Crescent Moon, and without a second thought, threw him onto the nearby hillside...
With a loud "thud!", Ye Sheng's body flew towards the car parked by the roadside. The force was so great that he and the car rolled down the hillside...
The weary crescent moon saw this scene the instant it opened its eyes.
"Ye Sheng!" With this heart-wrenching shout, Crescent Moon, clinging to her remaining tail, used the last bit of strength in her body to leap into the air and fly towards Ye Sheng. She was so fast that she caught his arm, which had just fallen to the side of the mountain.
"You'd rather be with him..." The cruelty in his eyes intensified as Qianfo, who had been tracking him, gritted his teeth in hatred, "Then don't blame me!"
With a flick of his black robe, a black snake coiled out of the black mist...
