Zuan never expected that he would one day encounter the classic question of who to save first, and he really wanted to answer that he would save them all.
Unfortunately, he couldn't say those words, because he knew he couldn't save either of them.
Both Qiu Honglei and Chu Chuyan were his confidantes who had shared life and death with him. They had long since made vows of eternal love and deeply loved each other. This shows that when they encountered an insurmountable danger, both women were willing to sacrifice their lives to help him.
How could he possibly betray a woman who is so deeply devoted to him?
No matter who he chose, it meant the other would die. Thinking of this, he fell into despair for the first time ever.
Alright, alright, let's save one first, then go to the underworld with the other, so she won't be alone.
Seeing his ever-changing expression, as if he were making some kind of decision, Mi Li was also startled. She deliberately tested him to make sure she didn't drive him crazy.
Thinking of this, she hurriedly said, "Don't worry about it. Chu Chuyan has already turned into snow and wind, and there's no way to save her now. Besides, what she said means that she's not really dead. You can try to save her when you have the ability later. On the contrary, Qiu Honglei is still breathing. If you don't take care of her, she will really die."
Zu An was startled. As the saying goes, those involved are often confused while bystanders see clearly. He had just fallen into a state of utter despair, and his brain was unable to think normally. Now, reminded by Mi Li, he hurriedly went to Qiu Honglei's side to check on her.
She was frozen inside the ice lotus, completely preserving her appearance as she had in life. Her eyes still showed the lingering affection and reluctance she felt when she looked at Zu'an, thinking she was going to die.
"Chu Chuyan's Purifying Ice Lotus is indeed domineering, able to freeze even that level of damage. However, this only temporarily delays her death. In the long run, she will inevitably perish." Mi Li sighed.
Suddenly, Zu An had a thought. He took out the remaining Feather Mountain Spirit Spring from his pocket and carefully dripped it onto the ice lotus. He had been seriously injured and originally planned to drink it all to recover his fighting strength as soon as possible. However, as if he had foreseen this, he left this bit behind. He didn't expect it to temporarily save Qiu Honglei's life.
As soon as the spiritual spring dripped onto the ice lotus, it quickly merged into the ice, and Qiu Honglei's frighteningly pale skin inside became a little rosier.
"Alright, with the Feather Mountain Spirit Spring and the protection of the Pure World Ice Lotus, her life force is temporarily preserved. Once you improve your strength or find a way to save her, you will be able to release her from the Pure World Ice Lotus." Mi Li, who had been watching anxiously, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Zuan was taken aback: "Can't we release him even like this?"
You should know that the Yushan Spirit Spring has the effect of bringing the dead back to life and healing flesh and bones, yet it could only barely save her life.
Mi Li rolled her eyes at him: "You don't even know what level that person is. She was only able to survive because Chu Chuyan used some kind of special secret technique to take most of the damage, which gave you the opportunity to use the Feather Mountain Spirit Spring. You should be grateful for the current effect."
Zu An said in a deep voice, "Who exactly was that person just now? How could he be so powerful?"
He has seen a lot of things now, having experienced countless secret realms and witnessed all kinds of powerful beings, but the oppressive feeling of the one just now was unprecedented.
Mi Li's expression was also solemn: "He should be the most supreme being in all realms of the universe, and may even transcend all realms."
"You know him? You can't say his name?" Zuan thought of the people she had mentioned before who couldn't be named.
Mi Li shook her head: "I don't know him, but I can tell from the situation just now. As for his name, I don't know it at all."
Zuan fell silent. Mi Li's certainty that the other party was the most powerful being in the universe proved that she had seen similar sights before; otherwise, how could she be so sure?
Her casual remark actually revealed a lot of information, but he didn't ask any further questions because he knew that he was still too weak and that telling him would only bring trouble.
Anyway, she wouldn't hurt me...
Although he knew he shouldn't trust others too easily, wouldn't it be too tragic if a person never had a single person they were willing to trust in their entire life?
"Do you think I have a chance to grow to that level?" Zuan has always been a confident person, but the shock of what just happened was too great, and he couldn't help but feel a little lost.
"You definitely will." Mi Li's tone was exceptionally firm at this moment.
Feeling the intense gaze from the other party, Zu'an regained his fighting spirit: "That's right, I went from being a piece of trash to where I am today, what's there to be afraid of!"
"That's more like it." A smile appeared in Mi Li's eyes.
"Then how long do you think it will take me to reach that level? That way I can save Hong Lei," Zu An hurriedly asked.
Mi Li's smile froze: "Uh, I think it's more realistic to think of other solutions for now."
Zuan: "..."
Why does this woman's face look different before and after?
Mi Li reached out and gently touched the ice lotus: "There must be a way to save her in the universe, but I have lost many memories and can't remember them for a while, so you need to explore slowly, and I also need time to recall."
"That's good." Zu'an looked at Qiu Honglei in the ice lotus and thought that no matter how difficult the method, he must save her.
And then there's Chu Yan...
“But now there’s a problem. Where would be a good place for me to put her?” Zuan looked at the ice lotus with some hesitation. With his current power, he could find a place for her, whether she was a human or a demon. But if he wasn’t personally looking after her, he was always worried that something might happen.
