"Ye Ning, are you alright?" Xiao Jingchen asked with obvious concern.
"Jingchen, I'm fine, I can handle it!" Ye Ning replied.
She had survived those difficult ten years in her previous life, and she didn't believe she could not last these ten minutes.
The sun, which had been suppressed for so long, burst forth with dazzling light in this instant, as if it wanted to release all its heat at this moment. It was like a caged beast that broke free of its restraints and frantically released its power.
A wave of scorching heat rushed towards me.
Ye Ning smelled a burnt hair odor, followed by a burning sensation on her skin.
This is the smell of burnt hair.
A searing pain coursed through Ye Ning's body, and her consciousness began to fade.
No, I can't give up like this. Ye Ning thought to herself, I still have Jing Chen, I still have Da Huang and Er Huang, and I still have Wang Ma and the others. Heaven has given me a second chance at life. I can't give up like this. Ye Ning, wake up.
Like a drop of clear water falling into the ocean.
This sliver of clarity, like a small fish, swam and churned in her mind, surging from calm to raging waves, gradually awakening her consciousness. Like a sapling parched by rain, it began to burst forth with vibrant life.
At the same time, her consciousness seemed to enter another realm.
Ye Ning could clearly feel something inside her body constantly collapsing and then rebuilding. Violent ions were constantly attacking her, but she could no longer feel the pain. She was like a destroyed sculpture, constantly rebuilding and repairing itself.
She felt a mysterious sensation, like being immersed in cool lake water in the height of summer. An invisible energy was continuously flowing into her body, and her space was expanding exponentially, like an ever-increasing balloon.
This experience seems long, but it actually only lasts a moment.
"Ugh!" Ye Ning suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, and then regained consciousness!
She looked at her hands and saw that they were completely unharmed. Her charred hair had returned to normal, and it seemed as if everything before had just been her imagination.
The violent electric ions swirled around her, colliding and making crackling sounds, but they no longer posed any threat to her.
This adventure brought her not only an upgrade in space, but also an increase in vitality and recovery ability.
"Jingchen, I did it!" Ye Ning excitedly turned to Xiao Jingchen beside her.
But Xiao Jingchen was unable to answer.
Because he is also at a crucial moment right now.
His eyes were tightly closed, his face was as pale as paper, and his breathing was rapid—clearly signs of external injury.
The violent electrical ions crackled and squeaked as they relentlessly assaulted Xiao Jingchen's exposed skin.
Xiao Jingchen's face grew paler and paler.
Jingchen, please don't let anything happen to you. Ye Ning felt her heart being clenched, as if it were being tightly gripped by an invisible hand, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.
But Ye Ning knew that now everything depended on his own will.
Time ticked by, and Ye Ning was so nervous she could almost hear her own breathing.
Even when Jing Chen gained his superpowers in his previous life, it didn't take this long. Why is he facing such hardship in this life?
Just as Ye Ning was at a loss, Xiao Jingchen suddenly opened his eyes.
"Jingchen, you're finally awake! Do you know how worried I was about you, Jingchen..."
Before Ye Ning could even feel happy, Xiao Jingchen's expression suddenly changed, and he spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turning as pale as paper.
"Jingchen, are you alright?!" Ye Ning exclaimed in surprise.
Bright red blood sprayed onto the transparent glass, blooming like a vibrant red spider lily. Ye Ning felt her heart stop beating at that moment, and she could hear a sharp metallic hum in her ears. She could see nothing but the blinding red.
Ye Ning suddenly understood how Xiao Jingchen felt when she was stabbed by a laser sword in her past life.
Her whole world seemed to be stained with water like a watercolor painting, fading until it turned grayish-white.
"Jingchen, you must not be hurt! You said you would stay with me until the end of my life, you can't lie to me!" Ye Ning rushed to Xiao Jingchen's side.
Of all the gods and Buddhas in the sky, who can hear her prayers?
She didn't want any superpowers or spatial abilities; all she wanted was to be with Jing Chen peacefully.
At this moment, the helicopter, which had been unattended for a long time, finally began to shake uncontrollably due to electromagnetic interference.
Ye Ning tried her best to control the helicopter, but the buttons on the helicopter were already out of control.
Amidst the violent turbulence, Xiao Jingchen, weak and powerless, began to slide uncontrollably toward the cabin door.
"Jingchen, no!" Ye Ning rushed over without hesitation, trying to grab his hand.
Just as Ye Ning was about to grab Xiao Jingchen, an unexpected turn of events occurred.
Xiao Jingchen's absolute territory suddenly popped out, swatting Ye Ning's hand away.
What's going on? How could Jing Chen's superpower suddenly appear on its own?
To Ye Ning's astonishment, a bubble-like light curtain enveloped Xiao Jingchen, then suspended him in mid-air as if weightless.
The light curtain swirled continuously in the sunlight, then slowly solidified and expanded.
Xiao Jingchen's pale face visibly regained color, like the rising sun gradually brightening.
"This is... Has my superpower been successfully upgraded?" Ye Ning exclaimed with delight.
Xiao Jingchen continuously absorbed the surrounding energy, and the light screen continued to expand until it was three times its original size, at which point it finally stopped.
"Jingchen!" Ye Ning asked tentatively, but Xiao Jingchen kept his eyes tightly closed and did not respond to her calls.
The helicopter finally came to a complete stop, spinning uncontrollably as it slowly descended to the ground.
Ye Ning quickly ran back to the control panel and began operating it with all her might.
However, she had never known how to operate machinery. It would have been better if she hadn't operated it; the more she did, the faster the helicopter descended.
"Damn it!" Ye Ning couldn't help but curse.
I should have learned how to operate it beforehand. What am I going to do now? Is today destined to be a day of crash and death?
She didn't freeze to death in the icy wilderness of her previous life, nor was she torn to pieces during the zombie outbreak. Was she going to die innocently from a fall now?
The descent was accelerating. Ye Ning glanced longingly at Xiao Jingchen. With the protection of his absolute domain, Jingchen should be fine. She was already very happy to be with Jingchen during this time. Perhaps she shouldn't have asked for too much.
Ye Ning closed her eyes, waiting for the final few seconds of impact.
Just then, a gentle male voice came from behind, "You silly little thing! Are you really going to give up like this?"
"Jing Chen, you're awake!" Ye Ning turned around in disbelief, only to meet a pair of star-like eyes.
