It seemed that exchanging her life for Mu Nian's strength was a worthwhile thing, and it was also what she had been pursuing all her life.
"Yu, I have finally completed my mission. I can go to the underground to find that unfaithful man..."
She suddenly grabbed Gong Yu's hand.
A tear fell from her cloudy eyes.
She did not feel too sad and went to death calmly.
Or perhaps this was the ending she had been seeking.
But such an ending is too selfish and cruel for Mu Nian.
Gong Yu did not touch Yan Luo's body, but let her lie quietly on the rattan chair. She stood up alone and walked towards Mu Nian who was still unconscious on the bed.
Mu Nian looked normal, no different from before.
But Gong Yu could clearly feel the powerful force constantly surging from Mu Nian's body, which was the power of the Xuanyuan Sword.
After Yan Luo sacrificed his life, the seal of the Xuanyuan Sword was broken, and it continuously supplied energy, improving Mu Nian's body structure.
His cultivation was constantly improving, and soon he reached the energy point that this world could bear.
At this moment, the Xuanyuan Sword seemed to sense Gong Yu's approach, and a phantom emerged from Mu Nian's heart, flying towards Gong Yu affectionately, circling around Gong Yu as if to please her.
Gong Yu smiled slightly and stretched out his palm.
The Xuanyuan Sword excitedly emitted a sword sound, sank into Gong Yu's palm, and entered the Shennong Ding to merge with other weapon spirits.
Xuanyuan Sword's departure made Mu Nian slowly open his eyes.
He was confused at first, then looked at Gong Yu anxiously.
Gong Yu didn't say anything, but turned sideways so that Mu Nian could see Yan Luo lying on the rattan chair.
Yan Luo passed away peacefully with a slight smile on his face.
Mu Nian just sat on the bed, staring at Yan Luo blankly for a few minutes before coming to his senses.
He got out of bed with a normal expression, walked barefoot on the cold floor, and walked to Yan Luo's side step by step.
Hanqi had been standing by and only stepped aside when he saw Mu Nian coming over.
But he didn't go too far. He looked at Mu Nian with a wary expression, as if he was afraid that Mu Nian would do something out of line.
But Mu Nian didn’t.
He simply picked up Yan Luo's body and walked out slowly.
Gan Qi wanted to stop him, but was held back by Gong Yu.
"Xuetong, let go." He was anxious.
Gong Yu looked at Mu Nian's departing back with distressed eyes and said coldly, "If you don't want to die, just stand there and don't move."
Although Mu Nian was as cold as ever, Gong Yu still felt the sadness hidden in his heart and the deep regret that could not be dissolved.
"Xuetong, although your current strength is far beyond mine, you should not be too overbearing." He pointed angrily at the direction where Mu Nian left and roared angrily: "The master even lost his life for him, but he didn't even shed a tear. He is an ungrateful person..."
“Bang!”
Before he could finish his angry words, Gong Yu slapped him hard in the face.
"Not all sorrows need to be carried out with tears." She said calmly, shook off the angry hand and left the room.
He wanted to refute, but he collapsed to the ground powerlessly and burst into tears.
He is not worthy of his master.
In his heart, no one's life is more important than his master's life.
How he wished he could die in place of Yan Luo, but not only was his status too low to be worthy of Yan Luo, he was also not strong enough to unlock the Xuan-Yuan Sword.
