A sharp pain shot through my neck, and a suffocating feeling of not being able to breathe filled my brain. Everything went black and chaotic before my eyes.
Liu Lieyu only released me when he saw my face turn red. His gaze fell on my neck, and his long eyelashes cast a shadow under his eyes, making it impossible to discern his emotions.
I gasped for breath, and the feeling of being able to breathe fresh air again was like being reborn.
"How is You?" I asked, panting. What should I do if You is dead?
Liu Lieyu raised his eyes and a smile appeared on his lips. "What do you think? Didn't you see everything clearly before you fainted?"
"Liu Lieyu, you! I will never let you get away with this!" I glared at Liu Lieyu and said fiercely.
"I couldn't ask for more." Liu Lieyu sneered as he watched me utter these words before leaving.
After Liu Lieyu left, I lay on the bed and cried for a while before I forced myself to cheer up. You's life was still uncertain, and she was waiting for me.
Thinking this, I wiped away my tears and got out of bed to see where I was. I originally thought this was the house where the female lead and Liu Lieyu used to live, but I found that the scenery outside the window was different.
I tried to turn the doorknob, but it wouldn't budge. For some reason, I had no magical power left in my body, and at that moment I was no different from an ordinary person.
"Bang!" I kicked the door hard and shouted, "Is anyone home?! Let me out!"
I soon heard the rustling sound of someone opening the door. I immediately stepped aside, and although I had no magic power, I still assumed a defensive posture.
The door opened, and a woman dressed in a white robe, seemingly in the attire of a priest, entered. She looked at me coldly and said, "You'd better behave yourself. Do you think this is your heavenly court?"
"Who are you?" The woman's face flashed through my mind, and past events replayed in my mind like a movie. "Fei Yan!"
The woman looked at me with an unfriendly expression and sneered, "So, a big shot like Emperor Xin still remembers my name."
Fei Yan was a loyal follower of Liu Lieyu and always stayed by his side. Later, when Liu Lieyu was reincarnated into the mortal realm, Fei Yan stayed in Guixu and waited for Liu Lieyu.
Fei Yan's presence here indicates that this must be the Ruins of Return.
"Is this the Ruins of Return?"
"That's right."
"How is this possible?!" I exclaimed in shock. "Wasn't the Ruins of Return destroyed?" It was destroyed by the original owner himself last time... How could it still be here...?
Upon hearing this, Fei Yan looked at me with even more hatred. I think if Liu Lieyu hadn't ordered her not to hurt me, Fei Yan probably would have wanted to kill me with the staff in her hand. "You didn't expect this, did you? Did you think that you could completely wipe us out by bringing the people from the Heavenly Court last time? We have the Eastern Emperor. You can just wait to die."
Fei Yan said those words and then turned and left. Before leaving, she locked the door, preventing me from going out.
"Don't go! Don't close the door!" Unfortunately, my shouting was of no use.
I had no choice but to sit on my bed and sort out my thoughts. Liu Lieyu's strength has greatly increased now that he has Guixu, and countless demon gods in Guixu are fighting for Liu Lieyu.
It seems the Heavenly Court has now become a battlefield. I wonder if Feng Su and the others are alright? And what about You...?
I suddenly remembered the talisman You had given me before, and quickly took it out of my pocket. I remembered You saying that no matter where I was, as long as I burned this talisman, she would come over immediately.
Unfortunately, I have no magic power now and cannot activate the talisman in my hand.
