"What's wrong?" There were ancient books scattered around Shakyamuni. He arranged all the books that Ye Luo had thrown on the ground into rows.
“Shakya, I have found a way to return the World-Suppressing Pearl.” Ye Luo leaned against the bookshelf and closed his eyes wearily. “The only way to return the World-Suppressing Pearl is through the bloodline of the Medicine Spirit Clan’s royal family. But the price is that once the World-Suppressing Pearl is returned to its underground location, the Medicine Spirit Clan responsible for delivering it will also be wiped out.”
Ye Luo scratched her head, feeling helpless for the first time. She didn't know what to do. She recalled Tongtong's face in her mind. Tongtong was the only suitable person to return Zhen Shizhu. It seemed that Tongtong was the only suitable person.
But how could she...?
Tongtong is so cute.
How could Ye Luo bear to push Tongtong down the road to death?
"Don't tell Tongtong yet, Shakyamuni." After saying this, Ye Luo gripped his sword and left.
Shakyamuni simply nodded.
He understood Ye Luo's predicament.
Lost in their own thoughts, neither of them noticed the pair of clear eyes behind the bookshelf.
Ye Yingyuan's health could not be delayed any longer, so Ye Luo decisively transferred half of his cultivation into Ye Yingyuan's body, and Ye Yingyuan's body slowly regained its color.
But Li Muge felt worried.
With so many disasters befalling the world, Ye Luo has lost half of his cultivation at this critical moment.
If the demon race gets the news...
They will definitely not let Ye Luo off easily.
Li Muge walked out of the house and looked up at the sky, but in the illusion, she actually saw Yun Qi's figure.
He was giving her a loving smile.
His eyes held an undeniable depth of affection.
Li Muge raised her hand and pressed it against her chest, where Yun Qi's protective scales were shielding her.
Ye Yingyuan's health has improved a lot; at least he can get out of bed now. Tongtong is leaning on Ye Yingyuan's shoulder, chattering away.
"Little brother, you need to take your medicine. Only by taking medicine can you get better."
Ye Yingyuan was tired of hearing this: "Okay, I got it. Tongtong, what's wrong with you today? I feel like you're acting strange."
Because of his burns, people around him looked at him with strange eyes.
Only Tongtong, like bright sunshine, shone beside him, giving him warmth.
"Big brother, I want to eat hawthorn cake, the kind you used to make for me in the Medicine Spirit Clan." As Tongtong spoke, she suddenly flew in front of Ye Yingyuan and kissed him.
Ye Yingyuan's face turned bright red.
"Tongtong, what are you doing? How could you kiss me?" Although Ye Yingyuan knew that Tongtong was innocent, he had been taught from a young age that boys and girls should be different.
"Little brother."
"What's wrong?" Ye Yingyuan asked, looking up from his wheelchair.
Tongtong raised her hand and brushed it across Ye Yingyuan's nose, and a stream of spiritual energy with a faint green glow entered Ye Yingyuan's body.
"You, Tongtong, what do you want..." Ye Yingyuan suddenly realized something was wrong, but his eyelids grew heavier and heavier, and he uncontrollably sat in his wheelchair, lowered his head, and fell asleep.
"Little brother."
Tongtong didn't cry this time.
She flew to Ye Yingyuan's side.
She reverently placed a kiss on Ye Yingyuan's forehead.
"Young man, the human world is your home. I want to protect the human world as I want to protect you."
What followed was completely unexpected for Li Muge.
Since the world lost the World-Suppressing Pearl, the earth fire has been gushing out. Ye Luo led his troops to set up a magic array to block it, while Li Muge also helped to kill the brain-eating demons who took the opportunity to run to the human world.
But how could the formation possibly stop the raging fire from the ground?
Ye Luo lost half of his cultivation again.
Having no other choice, she quickly dismissed the surrounding soldiers and ordered them to retreat.
"General, we will not retreat." The hundreds of soldiers and his lieutenant following Ye Luo refused to retreat.
"How dare you! Don't you know this is a military order? You all retreat immediately. I can hold them off by myself." Ye Luo tied up her long hair, put on armor, and used magic to resist the earth fire.
She knew she couldn't withstand the fire.
Even if she were to die, it would be her duty and the only way for her to atone for her sins.
"No, General!" The lieutenant and the hundreds of soldiers behind him said in unison, "We swear to live and die with you, General."
Ye Luo's eyes welled up with tears: "How could you be so foolish?"
The lieutenant chuckled sheepishly. He was a northerner: "General, how could those demons possibly defeat us? Natural disasters and man-made calamities may destroy our lives, but they cannot destroy our will."
“Yes, willpower.” Ye Luo used the continuous flow of spiritual energy to strengthen the formation.
Where the fire reaches.
It was completely charred black.
But the underground fire was getting closer and closer.
Ye Luo and the others did not back down.
Even at the cost of their lives, they would stop the subterranean fire.
Just then, a faint green light successfully blocked the earth fire, and Ye Luo opened his eyes to see Tong Tong holding the World-Suppressing Pearl.
It withstood the underground fire.
"Tongtong, what are you doing? Give me the Zhenshi Pearl, and then you can leave quickly." Ye Luo was incredibly clever; she immediately guessed that Tongtong must know that only she could return the Zhenshi Clan's pearl.
But how could Tongtong know all this out of the blue? Could it be Shakyamuni?
No, Ye Luo quickly denied it. Shakyamuni wouldn't do that; he wouldn't break his promise.
Tongtong's clear eyes smiled: "Sister Ye Luo, it's okay, I'm not afraid."
"When your little brother wakes up, tell him that you think the human world is too boring and you've decided to go home."
As soon as she finished speaking, Tongtong resolutely used her spiritual power to enter the earth fire.
"No, Tongtong."
"Tongtong." Li Muge had just killed a demon soldier beside her when she saw this scene. In her moment of stunned silence, the demon seized the opportunity and tried to stab her heart with a sword.
This demon was actually Ke Zhou in disguise.
The goal was to kill Li Muge.
Just as his sword pierced Li Muge's chest, a faint golden light emanated from Li Muge's chest, directly deflecting his sword.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Muge struck Ke Zhou with a palm.
It directly shattered Ke Zhou's disguise.
The war between immortals and demons escalated to a life-or-death struggle at this point.
As the local fire subsided and the earth-shaking tremors ceased, Ye Luo suddenly knelt on the ground.
Shakyamuni wanted to get closer.
Unexpectedly, Ye Luo suddenly cast a spell to form a lotus seal, trapping everyone.
"Ye Luo, what do you want to do?" Shakya suddenly realized the divination he had performed for Ye Luo. He raised his hand and used all his magic power to try to tear the barrier apart, but all his efforts were in vain.
"Shakya, I have wronged you in this life."
Ye Luo smiled faintly: "If there is an afterlife, I hope you and I can both be ordinary people, without having to bear any heavy responsibilities."
"Please tell Ye Yingyuan that my sister is sorry to him."
Ye Luo closed her eyes. All it took was sacrificing herself for the Three Realms to return to peace. This deal was definitely worth it.
It's just a pity for Ye Yingyuan.
She's really not a good older sister; she's going to leave her younger brother all alone again.
