Chapter 134 The Cat of Four Hundred Years Ago 4
Mo Zhiyuan was shocked to find that the person in his arms, whose breath was beginning to weaken, slowly opened his eyes.
The eyes were clear and calm, yet carried a sense of relief that came from someone who saw through everything, as if it were a last glimmer of light.
Bai Qingchen didn't look at Mo Zhiyuan. His gaze passed over the battlefield and looked at the gate that was roaring but failed to open, and then slowly swept across the blood mist that had turned into the Xingxiu Black Cat people below.
Mo Zhiyuan's heart was beating wildly, and a fear of losing something completely gripped him.
His lips trembled as if he wanted to say something, but no sound came out.
He knew that if he let go now, it would be a farewell forever, but what right did he have to keep her?
Bai Qingchen withdrew his gaze and took one last look at Mo Zhiyuan, leaving behind an extremely slight smile that contained a thousand words.
Then, he used up his last bit of strength to break free from Mo Zhiyuan's arms, transformed into a stream of light, and flew towards the boundary gate high in the sky.
"Aqing!" Zhou Xuanyi exclaimed in surprise.
The people fighting below also saw the familiar figure.
"It's Immortal Lord Fu Yu!"
"He recovered?!"
Everyone is confused now as to why a person who should have been dead was resurrected here, but as long as he is no longer controlled by the Demon Lord, he is still on the side of the Immortal Alliance.
Zhou Yan wanted to rush over, but was held back by Zhou Jingyan beside him.
Zhou Jingyan shook his head at him, and Zhou Yan finally turned his face away, unable to bear to look any longer.
Supported by Bai Feng, Bai Zhu looked at the thin figure in the air.
Bai Qingchen was suspended in front of the boundary gate. He could feel that the residual souls of the disappeared Star Constellation Black Cat people were not far away. They surrounded him, silently expressing their final wishes and inheritance.
He formed seals with his hands, drawing on the power of the origin of space transformed from the final sacrifice of the surrounding Xingxiu Black Cat people.
Under everyone's horrified gaze, the gate that the Demon Lord had tried so hard to open but failed to do so, suddenly opened under the guidance of Bai Qingchen!
The Demon Lord was stunned at first, then he was ecstatic!
However, the next second, his smile froze on his face.
Instead of endless monsters pouring out of the boundary gate, an irresistible and terrifying suction force was generated against the demon cultivators.
The demon cultivators on the battlefield were horrified to find that their bodies were being pulled up from the ground uncontrollably and dragged into the bottomless gate while screaming.
"No--!"
The Demon Lord reacted, his eyes were bloodshot, and he wanted to rush over to stop Bai Qingchen.
Mo Zhiyuan's figure suddenly appeared and blocked him in front of him, with a flash of sword light, blocking him tightly.
Immediately afterwards, countless cultivators from the Immortal Alliance also reacted and rushed forward to protect Bai Qingchen in the air and intercept the demon cultivators who were trying to attack him.
Most of the demon cultivators were quickly sucked into the boundary gate and disappeared, leaving only the Demon Lord and several of his core guardians still struggling to hold on.
Bai Qingchen's body in the sky began to shake violently, his face was as transparent as paper, and blood stained his white clothes red.
The power maintaining the gate was rapidly consuming his last life, and the gate began to slowly close.
Hope rekindled in the eyes of the Demon Lord. As long as Bai Qingchen was exhausted and the gate to the world was closed, he still had a chance!
The members of the Immortal Alliance also saw the key point and besieged the Demon Lord and his remnants even more desperately.
Finally, at the moment before the boundary gate was about to close completely, Mo Zhiyuan took the attack from the Demon Lord with all his might. The sword light surged, and he cut off one of the Demon Lord's arms with one sword, seriously injuring him, and knocked him into the crack of the boundary gate that was about to close. The guardians had already been sucked in.
The gate finally closed completely, and then slowly dissipated in the air like a phantom.
There was dead silence between heaven and earth.
Then thunderous cheers resounded through the sky. They won, they actually defeated the Demon Lord!
Countless people excitedly shouted Mo Zhiyuan's name, regarding him as the hero who saved the world of immortal cultivation.
However, at this moment, Mo Zhiyuan was no longer there.
At the moment when Bai Qingchen was falling due to exhaustion, a figure appeared who was faster than him, and Bai Feng caught his brother's body which was as light as a feather.
Bai Qingchen's consciousness had begun to fade. He stared at the sky with empty eyes, his breath weak: "Brother... I want to... go home..."
Bai Feng hugged him tightly, tears finally bursting out, his voice choked with sobs: "Okay... okay... Brother will take you home... Let's go home..."
Mo Zhiyuan stood not far away, covered in blood, staring at the scene in a daze.
He did not step forward, but just watched silently as the people from Yaowang Valley carefully surrounded Bai Qingchen and took him away.
The frost and snow in his hand seemed to be burning his palm, but Mo Zhiyuan did not let go. Instead, he held it tighter and tighter.
Finally, he was silent for a moment, then resolutely left with the people from Yaowang Valley.
Although the Demon Lord was expelled, the spatial fluctuations left by the disappearance of the boundary gate still made people uneasy, so the Immortal Alliance sent people to guard this place day and night.
Yaowang Valley used up all its treasures and tried every possible means, but was unable to save Bai Qingchen's dying life.
A few days later, on a quiet afternoon, Bai Qingchen finally closed his eyes forever.
Young Bai Qiming held his father's hand and cried heart-wrenchingly.
Bai Zhu, who was still seriously injured, suddenly vomited blood and almost fainted. His wife held him tightly.
Mo Zhiyuan, who had been guarding Bai Qingchen and deliberately avoiding others, seemed to have his soul sucked away the moment Bai Qingchen's life breath completely disappeared, and there was no expression on his face.
At this moment, the disciple in charge of guarding the ruins of the original boundary gate was shocked to find that the remaining spatial fluctuations were slowly dissipating and eventually disappeared completely, as if they had never existed.
Bai Qingchen was buried on a secluded hillside in the back mountain of Yaowang Valley, where he often sneaked in as a child and stared into the distance in a daze.
Mo Zhiyuan waited until all the people who came to pay their respects had left before he stood silently in front of the tomb.
He stared at the cold tombstone for a long time, motionless, as if he wanted to merge with the rock.
I don't know how long it took before I heard light footsteps behind me.
Mo Zhiyuan didn't react at all.
Until a faint and sad "meow" sounded, breaking the dead silence.
Bai Feng walked over holding a snow-white kitten with two tails.
He handed the kitten to Mo Zhiyuan, his voice hoarse and tired, "When Ah Qing was alive, he loved You You the most. Now... it's only close to you. From now on... it's in your care."
Mo Zhiyuan stretched out his hand stiffly and took the warm little ball of fur.
Yoyo seemed to sense the departure of its master, and curled up in his palm, making a slight whimpering sound.
Mo Zhiyuan gently stroked Youyou's head, but his thoughts drifted back to a long time ago.
"Zhiyuan! Come and see! There's a wounded kitten here!"
In my memory, the young man with a bright smile carefully held a dirty, shivering little white cat in his arms. Even though his hands were scratched and bleeding by the cat's frightened claws, he didn't care and just looked back at him excitedly.
"Let's take it home, okay?"
Home……
Mo Zhiyuan slowly closed his arms and gently held Youyou in his arms.
Aqing is gone.
His home is gone.
