Perhaps this time, she won't be so lucky to travel to another world after she dies, but being able to live two lives makes her life worthwhile.
She slowly closed her eyes, waiting for the moment when she and the boat would be burned and sunk to their deaths...
Just then, a chilling gust of wind suddenly swept around her, making her unsteady and swaying. She opened her eyes in surprise and saw a red figure blocking her way.
His ethereal figure, clad in flowing robes, seemed divine. His slender silhouette stood in mid-air, and with a single swing of his longsword at the sky filled with fireballs and arrows, the sword light flashed like lightning, slicing through the air and blocking all the red light aimed at the ship.
His swordsmanship was exquisite, crisscrossing and intricate, practically flawless.
Zheng Quchi looked up, stunned.
"Yu... Yuwen Sheng..."

A look of great joy immediately appeared on her face: "Yuwen Sheng—" She called out to him at the top of her lungs to express her joy at seeing him again.
"Yuwen Sheng!"
The newcomer was indeed Yuwen Sheng. After resolving the immediate crisis, he turned around and kicked her bow. With the force of the push, combined with the people below pushing the boat, she felt the boat moving away from the ferry at a considerable speed.

He was wearing a mask, so she couldn't see his face or what his expression was like. But in his eyes, there was nothing, nothing at all.
At this moment, the smell of blood on him was even stronger than before, to the point of being pungent. She had no idea how long he had been fighting bloody battles to get here.
"Since you're here, let's go together!"
She reached out to grab him, but he smiled slightly, let go of her, his fingertips lingering on hers before turning and flying away from the bow of the boat.
"Yuwen Sheng, where are you going?" she shouted urgently.
Dozens of boats were sailing down the river ahead. After leaving, Yuwen Sheng leaped and swayed on those boats, wielding his sword like a demon, constantly hindering them from getting close to Zheng Quchi's boat.
