Chapter 575:
"Yeah, that's true. We can't just send them to their deaths."
Ya Zi sighed, "Jiu Ling, do you think we might die here?"
"Die here? Brother, you mean we're going to be trapped here and die?"
Yue Jiuling casually plucked a blade of grass from the ground, chewed on it, and said, "That's impossible. We couldn't possibly die just from being trapped by this formation, unless the inner demon wants to do something else. But we've been trapped for so long, and the formation doesn't seem to have produced anything strange. Could it be that the inner demon simply wants to trap us? That's impossible!"
Just as Yue Jiuling was pondering what the inner demons wanted to do by trapping them, black mist began to gradually emerge from the ground inside the barrier. At first, there was very little black mist, but then it continued to increase, and finally it slowly filled the entire barrier!
Suddenly, Yue Jiuling and Ya Zi both saw a figure appear outside the barrier. That figure was Yue Jiuling's true form; she had reappeared under the control of her inner demons.
The 'Inner Demon' looked at Yue Jiuling inside the barrier formation and sneered, "The formation I created has begun. You didn't want to hand over your remnant soul, did you? Then let your soul be scattered inside. Anyway, I still have a way to collect your remnant soul in the end. I can find it in my memories then, hahaha! Yue Jiuling, this is what happens when you don't cooperate with me!"
As she spoke, the inner demon looked at Ya Zi and said to him, "Ya Zi, Ya Zi, I was originally only targeting Yue Jiu Ling, but you wanted to die. Since that's the case, then I will grant your wish."
As she spoke, Yue Jiuling's true form disappeared again, leaving only Yue Jiuling and Ya Zi in the black mist.
As the black mist filled the entire formation, Yue Jiuling felt her soul becoming very uncomfortable. She sat down on the ground, clutching her clothes, and said, "Damn it, am I really going to be completely destroyed? I'm the main soul. If I'm destroyed, I'll really lose everything and be used by that bastard, the inner demon..."
"Jiuling, how are you? Are you alright?"
Ya Zi supported Yue Jiu Ling, because he still had a physical body protecting him, so he didn't feel as bad as Yue Jiu Ling.
Seeing how much pain Yue Jiuling was in, he came up with a solution. He first let his own soul leave his body, and then stuffed Yue Jiuling's soul back into his own body. He said, "Jiuling, my physical body was born at the level of a great demon, and ordinary demonic energy cannot invade it. You should stay in my body. Even if my body cannot withstand the demonic energy, it can at least buy me some time."
After being unexpectedly stuffed into Ya Zi's body, Yue Jiuling felt much more comfortable. She looked at Ya Zi in surprise and said, "Young Master Long, you've given me your body, but what about you? This demonic energy is specifically designed to target the soul. What if something happens to you?"
As they were talking, Yue Jiuling noticed that Ya Zi's face had turned much paler, indicating that the black energy had also damaged Ya Zi's soul.
"No, Young Master Long, you are innocent. The inner demon wants to kill me. I can't let you get involved."
When Yue Jiuling saw Ya Zi's distressed state, she immediately tried to get out of his body, but before she could, Ya Zi held her down.
Ya Zi, slightly out of breath, said, "Jiu Ling, I'm fine. My soul is intact, so I'll be alright. But your soul isn't intact, and in this black mist, you really will be annihilated."
"But I can't let you die! This black energy is absorbing our soul power; you'll die!"
Upon hearing Ya Zi's words, Yue Jiuling immediately became anxious. She desperately tried to get out of Ya Zi's body, but Ya Zi held her down tightly, preventing her from leaving.
"Yazi! What are you doing?! I don't want to drag you into this!"
Seeing Ya Zi's state, Yue Jiuling was almost in tears. Staring at Ya Zi's face with slightly red eyes, she said, "I'm not worth this, Young Master Long! I can't drag you down with me!"
"It's worth it."
Ya Zi was already feeling his soul weakening. He thought to himself that the inner demon's formation was really powerful, even his great demon soul was about to break down.
Thinking about the possibility that he might actually die in the Demon Realm, Ya Zi gritted his teeth and said, "Jiu Ling, there's something I've always wanted to tell you, but I haven't dared to say it..."
What do you want to say?
Yue Jiuling was held down by Ya Zi, who had trapped her soul inside his body. Looking at the distressed Ya Zi, she felt a pang of heartache and was deeply moved. Yue Jiuling coaxed Ya Zi, saying, "Young Master Long, how about we take turns using this body? That way, neither of us will die, okay?"
"Oh no, once you leave, you definitely won't come back in. I know you too well!"
Ya Zi smiled and said, "Jiu Ling, actually I, actually I..."
Ya Zi wanted to tell Yue Jiu Ling something she had been keeping to herself, but she didn't know how to say it, so she stopped for a moment.
"What exactly do you want to say? Just say it already, or you can come inside my body and say it there."
Yue Jiuling suddenly thought of a way. She wanted to bring Ya Zi back to her body, so that the two souls could share one body and neither of them would die.
However, before she could express her thoughts, she heard Ya Zi's words. Ya Zi said to her somewhat awkwardly, "Jiu Ling, actually, I like you. If we don't die this time, can you be with me?"
